"i swear to god Klaus if you're lying..."Luther warns as Klaus gets fed up.
"i'm not, i'm not"
"master Klaus is correct" Pogo's voice comes from the entrance of the kitchen as we all turn to look at him "regretfully i helped master Hargreeves enact his plan"
"what?" Luther mutters, not believing what he's hearing.
"so did Grace, it was a difficult choice for both of us, more difficult than you could ever know. prior to your fathers death, grace's programming was adjusted so that she was incapable of administering first aid on that fateful night" Pogo explains as no one knows how to respond to that.
"sick bastard" Five mumbles.
"so the security tape we saw?" Luther asks.
"it was meant to further the murder mystery, your father hoped that being back here, solving it together, would reignite your desire to be a team again"
"we aren't Scooby-doo and the mystery inc, he can't just fake a mystery and hope we can solve it" i ramble as i pace around the room and tug at my hair.
"hey it's okay clam down" Klaus whispers softly at me as he gently takes both my hands in his and makes me look into his eyes, helping me calm down.
"and to what end?" Five sends me a worried glance that i brush off as i take deep breaths and relax.
yeah i had believed Klaus that dad killed himself but i didn't think it would be this complex.
'to save the world of course" Pogo answers Five as Klaus does a weird kinda laugh "yeah all right"
"first the moon mission and now this. you watched me search for answers and said nothing" Luther accuses as Pogo looks down in shame "anything else you want to share Pogo? any other damn secrets?"
"hey calm down, Luther" Klaus tells him as he uses the same soft voice he did with me but something tells me he isn't going to grab his hands and make him stare into his eyes.
"no i won't calm down, we've been lied to by the one person in this family we all trusted' Luther snaps as guilt washes over Pogo's face.
"it was your father's dying wish, master Luther" Pogo admits.
"there's always a choice" Luther seethes at him before walking out the room, soon followed by Pogo.
The three of us remaining sit in silence, not knowing what to say, i mean what can you say after finding out your father killed himself?
"i gotta think" Five abruptly says before spacial jumping out of here.
'do you wanna go do something not so depressing to take our mind of things?" i ask Klaus after a few moments of silence.
A grin makes its way onto his face as he tries to hide his grief "sounds fun"
***
So the only thing we could find to do was trying to knit and that turned out to be depressing as hell as we both tried to get the string to stay on the needle.
A knock on the door brings a sigh of relief to come out my mouth, finally something else to do than knitting, whose dumb idea was it to do this anyway?
"hey, get up, we're going" Five barges into the room as i throw the knitting half way across the room and sit up straighter in Klaus's wooden chair.
"where?" i ask excitedly, not wanting to wait.
'to save the world" Five answers plainly as Klaus lets out a sigh.
"oh is that all? great" he sarcastically remarks.
