Summary
The world is saved. There is no more apocalypse. There is no more Commission. There's just life to live, now.
What Five isn't expecting, though, is that life after all that is really, really hard. Hard in a completely different way than everything before was. He'll figure it out, though, like he always has. For his family, he'll figure it out.

Summary
“Fuck,” Klaus breathed, skidding to a stop, his hands shaking. “We stopped the apocalypse!” Like it had finally dawned on him what happened, Klaus looked relieved and in complete awe. Five was sure this was the appropriate response for saving the world, for completing the mission he has been on for decades, but he couldn’t feel it. The only thing Five felt was the crushing weight of an overwhelming panic that threatened to swallow him up and never bring him back.

Summary
DISCONTINUED!
“Well then, why didn’t you kill him?” yelled Luther.
“Yeah man, you had no problem murdering the entire board of directors.” said Diego, and Five snapped.
“NO PROBLEM? He screamed, and his siblings all took a step back, looking puzzled at the outburst. “NO PROBLEM? WHY DO YOU THINK I KILLED THEM DIEGO? FOR FUN? NO, I DID IT FOR YOU! YOU THINK I ENJOY KILLING? I HATE IT, I FUCKING HATE IT, I HATE THAT I HAD TO KILL THOUSANDS OF INNOCENTS TO SAVE THE WORLD, TO SAVE MY FAMILY! I HATE THAT I HAD TO KILL LILA’S PARENTS, AND ALL THE OTHER PARENTS, SONS AND DAUGHTERS! I HATE MYSELF FOR IT! Five took a fistful of his hair and pulled it hard, while pointing at his siblings accusingly. “I HATE YOU! I HATE WHAT I HAD TO DO TO SAVE YOU! I HATE...” he halted, as dizziness came over him, and leaned on the wall for support. His siblings were all looking at him with expressions mixed with terror and concern. He almost tripped, and saw Vanya reach out towards him hesitantly, as if she was getting ready to catch him if he collapsed.
“I hate how much I love you all.” He whispered brokenly.
Five is done with killing, and he just wants to rest. His siblings are concerned.

Summary
When Five wakes up, he just knows someone is in the room with him. Of course, even he didn't except to come face to face with the Handler who he'd thought to be very very dead. And he especially didn't expect her to break into his room and watch him sleep while waiting for him to wake up.
It's very fortunate that Diego and Klaus show up to wake him up and take offense to some random lady in the same room as their very uncomfortable, very thirteen-year-old brother.
