CHAPTER SIXTEEN: DAAadD sENt MEeeE tO ThE MOOooonnN

"pretty much means time will tell... and at the moment time is telling me to get tacos before the world ends"

luther only gave her a look and she immediately understood that there were no time for breaks at the moment "okay, no food," she mutters

"more food for me," klaus says, much to lilith's chagrin

"is it just us?" allison asks. "it's everyone," luther replied and lilith gives him a look of confusion, wondering why he only mentions it now

"in the house?" diego asks, prompting lilith to roll her eyes "yes diego, the world ends and only the academy is affected...of course not you idiot!"

"the whole planet?" allison questions. "no, outside the house. everyone died,"
luther told them

"hey" lilith turns her head and she soon softens as she sees vanya on the other side of the room "vonnie!" lilith squeals, ecstatic to see her baby sister

"sweetie hey, how've you been? haven't seen you since the attack" she asks, tucking a strand of hair behind vanya's ear
"oh yeah...no worries, everything's fine" lilith sighs in relief, pulling vanya into an embrace, vanya had probably been tense earlier, as now she could feel her posture relax as she hugs hers. "that's a relief" lilith says, pulling away

but then her smile vanishes, once she caught sight of a random guy standing next to vanya

lilith didn't like him at all. he looked like a creepy stalker, why the hell would he even be near vanya? lilith had a terrible feeling, but she brushes it off for now

"um yes?" lilith questions, not bothering to seem cheery as she looks him up and down
"hi. I'm leonard," the guy said as he held out a hand for the girl "lilith" she responds, her eyes flicker on his hand then to his face, ultimately she decides to shake it

"what's going on?" vany asks looking over her family "it's a family matter," allison responds almost immediately but lilith paid no attention to that, instead she had all eyes and ears focused on leonard, as if he'd do something terrible any second noe

vanya's once relaxed posture becomes tense once more as she repeats what allison says, almost not believing it "a family matter," she says, a look of hurt on her face

"so you couldn't bother to include me." this took lilith by surprise, she turns to look at vanya, lilith shakes her head "no...vanya that's not what she meant she-"

"it's fine, lilith," vanya snaps "don't let me interrupt." she doesn't bother to look at any of her siblings as she walks out, giving lilith the cold shoulder as she does

"vanya, wait," allison says as her and lilith attempt to follow their sister

"we'll fill you in later when we're alone." "please, please, don't bother. and i won't either," vanya told her

"vanya, that's not fair," allison says in defense, lilith nudges allison a little and shakes her head, telling her that wasn't the right way to go about things

"fair...?" vanya scoffs. "there's nothing fair about being your sister. i have been left out of everything for as long as i can remember. and i used to think it was dad's fault, but he's dead. so it turns out you're the assholes." vanya turns to leave again, but lilith was quick to grab her hand
