The timeline fractured, dumping the Umbrella Academy into 2019—only to find the Sparrow Academy occupying their home. Chaos erupted. In a quiet, tense room, Five faces Sparrow Number Eight, you. Her power is volatile; her emotions warp reality. She is calm, which unnerves him. "This isn’t your home anymore," she whispers truthfully. The lights flicker. Five, irritated and bleeding frustration, refuses to strike, bound by principle. But her calm pushes him. "Funny. You talk like you earned it," he snaps, crossing a line. Instantly, glass shatters, lights explode in sparks. The air distorts around her. Five realizes too late: he broke her emotional dam.
