"Does anyone know what that sign says?" Viktor asked
"Yeah, it says "Do not ring the bell" that's what that means" Diego answered
"We get it, Diego. Bell bad. What do we do?" Five spoke
"Does anybody know?" Valerie asked
"Reggie? Reggie" Allison said
He was flipping through pages in his notebook.
"I'm hungry. Does anyone fancy an unagi roll?" Lila asked
"How can you possibly eat as a time like this?" Ben spat
"I don't know, how can you be a dick at a time like this" Lila replied
"Oh you will-" Ben said
"Hey! Back off, alright? She's eating for-" Diego defended
"Strength! In these trying times. Diego, can you come with me for a second?" Lila said
The two walked off, everyone went their own way. Staying in the lobby. Five, Viktor and Valerie were sitting down in a corner.
"Nah, it's like the old man said, once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, and three times ain't gonna happen cause im not a gibbering idiot" Five spoke
They were speaking quickly but loud enough for only each other to hear.
"Well we can't be sure he killed Klaus or Luther" Viktor mentioned
"You serious? This is his modus operandi, we've seen this before. Have you forgotten how we all came together in the first place?" Five asked
"Dad's funeral" Viktor sighed
"Exactly. He pulled this on your rubes before, and he's doing it again now" Valerie mentioned
"Come on, Valerie" Viktor sighed
"No, no, no. He lost the vote to come through the tunnel yet here we are" Valerie mentioned
"Are you two really sure that he could kill Luther?" Viktor asked
"I think he can kill Luther, Klaus and the rest of us without breaking a moral sweat" Valerie answered
"And what's worse, I think Allison is involved" Five mentioned
"No, no" Viktor scoffed
The three examined her
"No, she.. she was with Sloane in the tunnel" Viktor said
"I'm not talking about Klaus" Five said
"Luther? What? No, she would never do that" Viktor denied
"She's been unraveling since we got to this timeline" Five mentioned
"Yeah, she lost her daughter" Viktor mentioned
"And she killed Harlan" Valerie stated
"Look, even if you're right. I can't imagine they're just gonna come clean if we confront them" Viktor said
"I agree" Valerie and Five nodded
They were all watching as Reginald roamed around the hotel.
"Gather up, Children. Now that we've had a chance to catch our breath, the real work can begin" Reginald spoke
Valerie got up, grabbing her book.
"Ah, the myth of the seven bells, eh?" Five asked
"Exactly. Somebody's been paying attention" Reginald agreed
