Theme Song: Mind Is A Prison by Alec Benjamin

(Zero's P.O.V)

The rain hammered down as we all walked out with black umbrellas apart from Klaus who had a clear one with a pink band around the rim, and Diego, Luther and I. I stood in between Klaus and Five, wearing my jacket."Did something happen?" Grace, our robotic mother, said with a confused expression. "Dad died. Remember?" Allison said. Grace put on a fake smile. "Oh. Yes, of course."

"Is Mom okay?" Vanya asks.

"Yeah, yeah, she's fine. She just needs to rest. You know, recharge." Diego said. He and Grace always had a special bond, even though she's a machine. "Whenever you're ready, dear boy." Pogo, the talking chimpanzee, said. Luther took the lid of the urn off and tipped it upside down. The ashes fell out of the urn. They fall to the ground and don't move. "Probably would have been better with some wind." Luther said. "Even in death, he finds a way to bore us." I said, rolling my eyes. Klaus chuckled at my response.

"Does anyone wish to speak?" Pogo asks. No-one answered. "Very well. In all regards, Sir Reginald Hargreeves made me what I am today. For that alone, I shall forever be in his debt. He was my master and my friend, and I shall miss him very much. He leaves behind a complicated legacy-"

"He was a monster." Diego interrupts. Klaus laughed. "He was a bad person and a worse father. The world's better off without him."

"Diego." Allison starts.

"My name is Number Two. You know why? Because our father couldn't be bothered to give us actual names. He had Mom do it." Diego snapped.

"Would anyone like something to eat?" Grace asked.

"No, it's okay, Mom." Vanya said softly.

"Oh, okay." Grace said.

"Look, you wanna pay your respects? Go ahead. But at least be honest about the kind of man he was." Diego said.

"You should stop talking now." Luther said angrily.

You know, you of all people, apart from Zero, should be on my side here, Number One." Diego said, acknowledging my existence.

"I am warning you."

"After everything he did to you? He had to ship you a million miles away."

"Diego, stop talking."

"That's how much he couldn't stand the sight of you!" The boys both started fighting, throwing punches at each other. Klaus put a arm infront of Five and I but we pushed him away. "Boys, stop this at once!" Pogo shouted.

"Come on, big boy!" My brother said.

"Stop it!" I shouted.

"Hit him! Hit him!" Klaus said excitedly. I slapped his arm and rolled my eyes.

Pogo walked back inside. "Get off me!" Diego shouted at Luther.

"We don't have time for this." Five said before walking inside. I sighed. "Come here, big boy!" Diego said. Luther went to punch Diego but ended up punching Ben's statue.

"And there goes Ben's statue." Allison says before walking away. Diego pulled out a knife. "Diego, no!" Vanya yelled. Diego threw the knife at Luther which ended up searing through the fabric of his arm and cutting his arm. Luther ran inside. Vanya aproached Diego.

"You never know when to stop, do you?" She said.

"You got enough material for your sequel yet?" Diego snapped.

"He was my father, too." Vanya said before walking inside.

"Mom. Let's go inside. Come on. Okay? Come on." Diego said, motioning for my to follow.

K bye.
