["Promise me that."

"Of course."]

(Y/n) Hargreeves, A.K.A. "Number 8: The Geode."

(Y/n) grew up alongside seven other children who were collected by Sir Reginald Hargreeves to form the illustrious "Umbrella Academy." However, unlike the others she got in an incident with her powers early on that left her petrified in rock. 

By the time she had gotten out, the other children were long gone, and even Luther had been on the moon for two years. For a time, her favorite companion was a ferret she called the Polish word for "nine."

Following the untimely death of her legal guardian, (Y/n) is reunited with her powered associates, only to be thrown into a mission to save the world when a familiar pint-sized ally returns to report doomsday is quickly approaching.

Disclaimer: I do not own The Umbrella Academy, nor its characters. Additionally, the events and lots of the dialogue either don't belong to me or it's paraphrased! I only own the canon details of the inserted character, Dzie, Arthur, and any other non-canonical characters or events that I add myself.
