Summary
“They said you’d vanished,” he said, fingers interlocked, looking up at her from below. Number Eight studied his face for a few moments, unreadable — not a flicker of emotion crossed her features.
“They weren’t wrong,” the girl replied after a pause, still watching him. Then she turned away from Five, hands clenched. “But I’m here now.”

Summary
The gasp pulled itself from Five’s throat before he even realized that he was still alive, the pain flaring in his abdomen the only thing he registered for a few moments. Warm blood soaked through his clothes, steaming in the artificial winter air as he bled out, eyes shooting open only to stare up at the dusty rafters of the barn above him.
“Oh good!” Came the cheerful chirp from the Handler, her footsteps crunching over straw and rapidly melting snow. “You’re still alive.” He could hear the smile in her voice, the playful cadence leaping into her voice as she stalked over to his half-dead body. The gun in her hands swung like nothing more than a toy, some kind of doll, or even a fake pony on a leash.

The Handler always had power over Five, even in the barn this is obvious

Summary
The gates of their home, adorned with the sign of an Umbrella. Home, although true, may have been a strong word, especially to Five.
He didn’t have a home. No roots. No friends. The world was his oyster, and at times, even that didn’t feel enough for his adventurous mind. But his family filled that gap. They filled that missing part of his heart that he was always searching for.
The one which he filled with addictions.. those used to be Dolores and twinkies, then quickly changed to The Handler and steroids, then finally to Homicide and time-travel. It became a part of him, Those things would never shape or change, but they made his heart into a dagger, his family filled the rest of the hole, making him have a heart again.
Now.. It was nothing but alcohol, homicide, and the occasional thought of his family being normal for once that kept him eternally sane. Or not.
…
Five wakes up on the day of his father’s funeral, for the second time, and everything is not at all as its meant to be.
Or… just the result of when you take an immortal boy, an incestual idiot, a heartbroken violinist, a squid boy, a serial killer, a pretty face, and a DYI batman in the same household.

Summary
"It's always sad when an emotionless doll like you starts getting sympathetic-" her venomous words were cut short when Five interrupted.
"I'm not a doll.." he said between gritted teeth. His body was shaking from the toxins that had been injected. He felt weak, probably looked pathetically so.
"Oh? But you are!" The Handler declared, clapping her hands together in a sudden motion that had Five jumping from the sound. "You do anything you're ordered to, don't you Number Five?" He didn't answer, his head lowered to where his legs were tied to the chair, she continued. "Heck you'd kill yourself if your siblings told you to. Wouldn't you?"
"Yes…" Five admitted.
Why did he admit it? Why now of all times does his mind want to talk about his feelings?
