After the disaster we headed back to Elliott's. The rest of the Hargreeves showed up not long after. Five patched up my leg and we joined the others in the front room, watching the news on Elliott's TV.

"Authorities are asking for help identifying several persons of interest at Dealey Plaza at the time of the assassination. The FBI believes they may have been acting in concert with the alleged shooter, Lee Harvy Oswald. Viktor Hargreeves, wanted in connection with the deaths of several FBI agents inside the federal building at Dealey Plaza. A Cuban exile known only as Deigo, who recently escaped from the Holbrook Sanitarium."

"I thought you were Spanish." I said, looking up at him beside me.

"Mexican." Deigo said absently.

"Ah." I nodded.

"A bare knuckle boxer with suspected mafia ties who fights under the alias King Kong. Allison Chestnut, a negro radical responsible for instigating and organising the recent riots at Stadtler's lunch counter. And finally, Klaus, controversial cult leader, and known tax evader. An unidentified girl wanted for underaged drinking, agrivated assault on police officers and members of the public.
The FBI is asking the public to be on the lookout for this unidentified boy. Both children are believed to be held hostage by the suspected terrorist network..."

"Well it's true." Five said. "I do feel like I'm being held hostage most days."

I slapped him in the back of the head. Five looked at me and rubbed where I hit him.

"You really did all that? In one month?"

"I got drunk twice." I said defensively. "It's not that bad."

Five rolled his eyes and dropped his hand.

"God I hate that photo." Deigo said.

"They're saying I instigated the riot?" Allison scoffed. "That's unbelievable."

"Look, the good news is that we restored the timeline and stopped doomsday." Luther said.

"Yeah we're a bunch of real goddamn heroes we let Kennedy die." Deigo said.

"As he was meant to." I said.

"Yeah and now we're officially the most wanted people in the world." Allison said. "The FBI is after us, the Dallas police, the Secret Service. I mean its only a matter of time before they hunt us down here."

"We've faced worse odds." I shrugged. "Rember the '67 job?"

Five rolled his eyes and groaned at the memory. "That was a shitshow."

"Tell me about it." I nodded.

"Stop." Deigo said loudly.

"Where are we supposed to go?" Viktor asked.

"I have this yurt." Klaus said, walking down the stairs. "Just outside Reykjavik. We could totally lay low there."

"How the hell would we get to Reykjavik without being seen?" I asked.

"Oh my cult would help us out. They love me after all." Klaus said.

"Hey, numbnuts." Five said. "Hidings not gonna make a difference here. The Commission will hunt us down wherever and whenever we go."

"Honestly it's a miracle they haven't showed up yet." I nodded.

"They're right. They'll never stop." Deigo said.

"Since when are you the expert chico cuchillo?" I asked.

"Since I got back from the Commission." Deigo said, looking over at us.
