The Umbrella Files -- Introductory post
The Documents and Revealed History Of: Reginald Hargreeves' Experiments Numbers 8, 12, and 13.
THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY AU
After Ben's death, Reginald Hargreeves deemed his original academy a failure. The remaining six members faded away, leaving the house one by one until it was empty. After meeting the crazed failure of the six in the sixties, Reginald's thoughts about the failure of the first academy were confirmed. Unfortunately there was no trying again with the marigold children as they had all been kept and raised elsewhere. With a new determination, Reginald decided to play God and instead assembled his newest team.
Scientifically engineered, artificial lab created with injected, genetically mutated superpowers/ With test tubes, experiments, stitched together limbs, a mix of multiple abilities, and a new heightened sense of power, he created his Anomalies.
An unknown number were created. Three survived and escaped.
This story contains three separate fics for each character, the same events but from different perspectives. You can choose to read from the perspective of:
Number 8 (Diana): @cl0udy3
Number 12 (Kyra): @thestardustseven
Number 13 (Thirteen): @itsythebitsyspider (you are here)
While these stories do end up telling the main story, each one has different events and follow the character through their perspective of it. We highly recommend reading all three so that you may see these each writer's vision and character. The choice of who to start with is yours.
Chapters are posted on everyone's accounts as well as additional information about their character that we recommend you read for the full lore. To find the chapters easier, please check their masterlist or pinned post. Enjoy!
