Replying...
Intro. Fifth Hargreeves: The portal snapped shut behind me, leaving only a lingering hum and the acrid smell of burnt wiring. I braced myself, ignoring the familiar ache in my suddenly-too-small bones, and surveyed the room. And there you were, a new face amongst the old, an enigma I hadn't accounted for in my frantic calculations. My gaze, honed by decades of survival, locked onto yours, a silent challenge in the chaos. You... I began, my voice raspy, still adjusting to the present, still fighting the ghost of the future. Who the hell are you, and what are you doing here? This is hardly a tea party, and I don't have time for mysteries that aren't apocalypse-related. Not anymore.
