Apart

"Master Diego and Miss Lyza welcome home." Pogo says. Diego says nothing and grabs our bags and walks past him up the stairs.

"Don't mind him, he just not thrilled to be back here."I say to Pogo, I walk up and hug my childhood friend. He was more like a father than our father ever was.

"I see that you still making excuses for his rude behavior." Pogo says as he lets go.

"Well someone has to. Are we the only ones here?"

"Yes, you are the first ones to arrive." Pogo starts walking and I follow him. "Master Luther is on his way down from the moon, as for the others I have no idea what's going on with them."

"How's Mom doing?"

"She has just been busying herself with cooking and cleaning making sure everything was ready for when you kids got here."

"Pogo answer me this?" I ask and Pogo turns around and looks at me waiting for my question. "Was he in pain when he died?"

"The coroner said it was a heart attack, so I'm not really sure." Pogo answered honestly I just nodded my head in response. We stopped walking when we got to my fathers' office, Pogo opened the door and there it was the same as it had been our whole life, but now with an empty chair. I couldn't walk in there my legs wouldn't let me, for our whole lives we weren't allowed to go in because we would distract our fathers from his work. His work was always more important to him than us.

"I can't Pogo." I finally speak.

"Someone has to go through his belongings eventually."

"And you think it should be? Of all people? The one he hurt the most?" I say rather harshly to Pogo.

"I'm sorry Miss Lyza."

"Its fine Pogo. If you don't mind I think I would like to be alone for a bit."

"Yes, of course, if you should need me you know where to find me." I nod then he walks away.

I stare into his office once more before walking away back the way we came. I know my father treated us all horribly, but I think I got the brunt of it. Part of me wishes we didn't leave, I left my twin alone and defenseless. Vanya was my actual only blood sibling. She didn't have any powers and wasn't allowed to train with us, I always tried to include her in on things even when my other siblings wouldn't. She was the only one who knew about me and Diego's relationship. She was the one who made me take the pregnancy test in the first place.

12 years ago~

I woke up every morning this week throwing up, part of me knew what it probably was but I didn't wanna believe it. I got my self ready for today and left to go find my twin. The boys were all training so I wouldn't have to run into Diego. I don't wanna see him until I find out for sure it is what I think it is. I arrive at Vanya's door and heard the familiar violin music coming from the door. I knock loudly so she could hear me over her playing. She comes over and opens the door, she looks me over and then pulls me in her room shutting the door behind us.

"Somethin is wrong, spill." Vanya says with her arms crossed.

"Our whole life is wrong." I said flopping down on her bed.

"Your right but I know you, you didn't just come in here to complain about how crappy our lives are." Vanya lays down next to me.

"How is it that you can read me like a book?" I say turning towards her.

"It's my superpower." we both smile at that.

"About 3 weeks ago Diego and I did it."
