Summary
“Better than the Handler,” Five says, “is a very low bar. But it was really my mistake for trusting you, wasn’t it? For thinking that you would be different. That different is better that dead – but everyone who would ever work here is rotten to the core. I guess you can’t change your nature.”
“If you think that’s true,” Dot says mildly, “then what does that say about you?”
Five hoists the gun up and points it at her smile. “Let’s find out, shall we?”
...
Set vaguely after season two. Five finally gets his closure with the Commission.

Summary
“No, no,” he growls, searching for a way out, hand running over glass. “I’m not falling unconscious.”
Five kicks out wildly. He hits something - pain rockets through him and a wave of nausea follows. When he turns his head, struggling to breathe, feeling like the car is crushing him, he sees Klaus’ upside-down face, unconscious – dead? – and peaceful, a trickle of red trailing from his eyebrow into his hairline.
“Klaus!” Five shouts, his voice cracking. “Vanya! Anyone?”
No response.
Déjà vu.
...
Set vaguely after season two, in an AU without the sparrows. Five, Vanya, and Klaus get into a car crash.

Summary
"Don't you ever think it would be nice to have a normal life? To just… to get the chance to be a normal kid?"
"Dad ruined that for us," Diego said. "And anyway, what's so great about being 'normal' huh? You want to be EXTRA ordinary?"
"Diego makes a good point," Five said.

Summary
He looks back to the little goldfish. Circling the tiny aquarium again and again and again. It almost reminds him a bit of Seven. All alone in its unpersonal little space, only extraordinary in how small it is compared to the others. Those large bulging eyes staring right back at him. And – is he seriously comparing his sister to a fish now?! How long have they already been standing there? Maybe he would be a bit concerned if he didn’t know that every single person on top of this platform is at least as messed up as him.

Summary
Five sits a couple feet away from the woman, the flickering lightbulb swinging above, and lines up his tools carefully on the filthy concrete floor between them. He takes his time, letting her see each one, and up this close, he can see the dawning, sickening horror etched into every micro-expression on her face.
He leans back, just watching, even as Dolores screams silently at him to stop.
Bleach. Screws. Spoon.
...
Number Five's final training exam at the Commission before he's cleared as a field agent. The test is straightforward - inflicting torture to obtain information is a standard skill that any agent must be able to utilise with ruthless efficiency. And Five will do anything to get back to his family.

“You’re tired,” Ben said. “You’re exhausting yourself.”
“No, I’m not.”
“Yes, you are!”
“Just let me save you,” Five insisted. “Cause I love you, see? Let me love you.”
That did it. Ben started crying again.

Summary
"Oh, no..." Klaus murmured. Five quirked an eyebrow at him. Was Klaus saying that because of something unimportant, or because something was wrong? With him, Five would never tell.
"What?" Five hissed.
"Five, how many," Klaus swallowed, sitting up straighter, "how many people have you killed throughout the years?"

Summary
“Oh my God,” says a woman’s voice, and then she stumbles out from behind the collapsed building to his left and stares at him. He’s not imaging it. He can’t be. “A kid? Am I hallucinating?”
“I thought I was,” Five says, trying not to cry. He’s not alone.
For a moment, they just watch each other, gaping.
The woman is dressed extremely strangely, in a completely white suit that somehow remains untouched by the ash and dirt, pristine and almost blinding against the backdrop of rubble and flames. “Who are you?” she says, and then cringes, puts a hand to her head. “And what happened?”
...
On his first day in the apocalyptic wasteland, Five is already beginning to lose hope, and thinks he might be the only person in the whole world left alive.
But he soon finds out that he's not.

"I just don't get it," Luther said. "Everything was going so well. You were picking up new hobbies. The boy scouts. You were…"
"I was what?" Five said. "Acting like a 'real' kid?"
"I guess you still are," Luther said, scratching his chin. "Real kids rebel and stuff."
Five rolled his eyes.

“So there,” Five said. “Problem solved.”
Allison flinched.
“What?” Five said.
Allison put a hand on his shoulder, squeezing meaningfully. “You know you don’t have to solve problems for me? For any of us?”

Summary
And then it hits him what she’s done. She’s just effectively isolated herself from her one true friend in the house for the entire rest of the week. Five won’t be able to rant about Luther and Diego, tell her stories of Allison’s crazy fanboys, or sneak her extra dessert after dinner. They won’t be able to curl up together in the night, him whispering equations in her ears as she drifts off, or read books side by side. She won’t have a companion at all.
And she’s done it on purpose. To get back at him. Because the isolation may hurt her, but they both know it will hurt him even more.
Or: Vanya has always been strong. It just takes some time for everyone, including Five, to see it.
