Once we got into the barn, there was a little boy, who I'm guessing is Harlan, floating in the air while a tornado of power spun around him.

"Harlan, it's Vanya!" Vanya yelled, "Look, Harlan, I know you're really scared, but I can help you. I need you to listen to me, okay? Can you do that?"

She walked into the power tornado to take care of Harlan.

"Uh... Guys?"

We all turned to see Klaus looking out the barn door.

"What?" Diego asked as we all walked over to him, "Ah, shit."

"What, who are they?" Klaus asked.

"One's the Handler, the others Diego's girlfriend," Five said.

"Lila. That's my ex-girlfriend," Diego said.

"That's the Handler? She looks different from how I pictured her," I said as I looked at her.

"You know what? Doesn't matter. They both look angry," Luther said.

Klaus nodded, "Yeah."

"Our brother has that effect on people," Allison said.

"I'm gonna go find out what they want. You guys stay here with Vanya and the kid," Five said.

"I'm coming with you, too. Come on," Diego said as he started walking out.

Five started to follow him, but I grabbed his hand causing him to stop and look at me.

"I'm coming too. Whether you like it or not," I said.

He sighed, "Fine, but stay close to me."

"I love the smell of that fresh country air, don't you darling?" The Handler asked Lila as we walked towards them.

"Makes me want to vomit," Lila said.

"What do you want?" Five asked them.

"To watch you suffer," Lila said.

"What about me?" Diego asked her.

She looked at him, "You're not even worth my wrath."

The Handler looks at me and smiles, "You must be Five's girlfriend. Y/N right?"

I slowly nodded.

"You're also siblings... that's weird if you ask me," she said.

I rolled my eyes, "Well, we didn't ask you."

She smiles, "You're sassy. I can see why you like her, Five."

"How about you tell us why you're here," Five said.

"We're here on official business," she said.

"At what business is that?" He asked.

"As head of the commission, I've decided to eliminate the criminal s responsible for the assassination of the former board of directors," The Handler smirked.

"Yeah, right, we didn't kill the board," Diego said.

"Uh, actually, Diego, that's not entirely accurate," Five said.

"You didn't tell them?" The Handler asked him.

Five shrugged.

"Oh, Five," she shook her head.

"Five, what the hell did you do?" Diego asked him.

"What I had to do to get my family home, Until somebody reneged on our deal," Five said.
