The bell for dinner rings though the house as several footsteps walk down the staires and into the dinning room in a line.
We all stand behind our chairs with me next to Klaus and next to him is Allison, across from me is Five, then Ben then Luther and Diego, with Vanya at the end of the table.
Loud footsteps approach as father takes his place on the opposite end of Vanya.
"sit" chairs scrape the ground as everyone takes a seat.
Everyone digs in as i look around at all my sibling, Luther and Allison share looks with each other, Diego carves something into the chair arm, Klaus rolls a blunt, Ben reads, Vanya calmly eats and Five looks like he wants to say something.
Everyone's attention is brought to Five as he stabs a knife into the table.
"number Five" Father warns, everyone knows that there is to be no talking at the table.
"i have a question" Five announces as Father continues eating.
"knowledge is an admiral goal, but you know the rules, no talking during meal times" Father answers "you are interrupting Herr Carlson"
Five looks over at me and a shake my head no, pleading with him not to do what ever he is thinking.
"i want to time travel" Five breaks eye contact with me and pushes his food away.
"no" Father answers simply.
"but i'm ready, i've been practicing my spacial jumps just like you said" Five tries to convince him as he jumps over next to him "see"
"A spacial jump is trivial compared with the unknowns of time travel. One is like sliding along the ice, the other is akin to descending blindly into the depths of freezing water and reappearing as an acorn" Father explains as everyone else minds there own business and continues to eat.
"i don't get it" Five states as i watch with concern.
"hence the reason you're not ready" Father replies as Five looks over as me and Vanya shake our head at him, telling him not to do it.
"i'm not afraid" Five pushes.
"fear isn't the issue, the effects it might have on your body, even on your mind are far to unpredictable, now i forbid you to talk about this any more" father gets fed up as he stops eating to face Five.
Five seems to contemplating something as he looks at me for a second then storms out of the dinning room.
"number Five, you haven't been excused, get back here" Father calls after him.
Little did any of us know, that would be the last time we see him in a long time.
***
I had fallen a sleep on the couch after feeling extremely tired.
That might have something to do with the fact i had aged into a 40 year old than o a 13 year old or maybe its just since i'm younger i get more tired easily, either one could be right.
A smile makes its way onto my face as i notice a bag with 'Griddy's donuts' on the coffee table in front of me.
I reach for the bag and open it to be met with the amazing smell of donuts.
I didn't think he would actually get me some.
before i can dig into the delicious, sugary treat, whimpering catches my attention.
