Nathan Young a.k.a Klaus Hargreeves

Summary:

The Umbrella Academy failed to stop the apocalypse, once the space rocks hit the Earth, everyone died, including the siblings.
But God, who still didn't want Klaus, sent him to a different world, for a fresh start. Where he became a baby and grew up with a normal(ish) childhood. Where he was known as Nathan Young.

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

--Klaus' P.O.V.--

I turned around, away from my siblings, staring up at the sky. Or more specifically the chucks of moon zooming towards the earth. My hands clutched the dog tags tightly, waiting for the end to come, so I can see Dave. I didn't have to turn around to know that Ben was standing beside me. After all, Ben was always there.

My siblings were fighting in the background, trying desperately to find a way to survive. But I didn't care, not any more so instead I just stay standing there. I don't care that I'm going to die, especially since it means I can finally see Dave once again. Not to mention be able to interact with Ben for once.

"Klaus!" Diego shouts, causing me to turn around, Diego looks afraid, they all did.

"What?" My voice was barely above a whisper, as I stare at my siblings. They're all staring at me, almost like they expected something from me."Do you have any ideas?" Diego asks. I shrug before turning my gaze back to the sky. 

"You're just okay with dying?" Allison asked, her tone was angry, but in reality she was scared. She didn't want to die. I hummed in response, lifting the dog tags to my lips. My siblings all become panicked the closer the moon chunks became, but no one could come up with a good idea. And then, they hit. A sharp pain filled my body before it disappeared just as quickly as came, and darkness replaced the pain.

My eyes spring open as I gasp, lunging forward. I was in the same forest as last time. The only difference was that this time, God was standing before me. Her lips were drawn into a frown.

"You're dead," God commented, she sounded almost disappointed.

"And you still don't want me?" I finish, feeling disappointment wash over me. God nodded in response, slowly.

"Because your world has been destroyed, I will give you a choice," God spoke slowly as if she wasn't sure about what she was saying. "You can either go back to your world, after the apocalypse of course, or you can go to a new world, where the umbrella academy never existed, and start over," I lean forward as God spoke, but in the end, there was no choice really. 

"The second option, I would like to start over please," I say. God studies me for a few seconds, before nodding and turning around. The forest disappears, being replaced by darkness. The next time I open my eyes, they were greeted with a woman. She had brown hair, and a confused smile adorned her face. Her head moved up, looking around. I try and follow her gaze but instead all I see is white. It was then that I realise that I was a baby. The woman sighed as she stared back down at me before she moved inside. She seemed to think for a few minutes before smiling down at me, "Nathan," She whispered, "I'll call you Nathan,"
