The Documents and Revealed History Of: Reginald Hargeeves’ Experiments Numbers 8, 12, and 13
THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY AU
After Ben’s death, Reginald Hargreeves deemed his original Academy a failure. Those members faded away, leaving the house one by one until everyone was gone. After meeting the crazed failure of Luther in the sixties, Reginald’s thoughts about the failure of the first academy were confirmed. Unfortunately, all the other marigold children had been kept and raised somewhere else, so Reginald decided to fiddle around with playing God and assembled a new team: scientifically engineered, artificial lab creations with injected, genetically mutated superpowers. With test tubes, experiments, stitched together limbs, a mix of multiple abilities, and a new heightened kind of power, he created his Anomalies.
An unknown number was created, but only three survived and escaped their creator. This story contains three separate fics for each character- same events, but from different povs. You can choose to read from the perspective of: Number 8 (Diana) → @cl0udy3 Number 12 (Kyra) → @thestardustseven (you are here! ⋆˚꩜｡) Number 13 (Thirteen) → @itsythebitsyspider Although the same plotline takes place in each fic, we all highly recommend reading all three character perspectives as the dialogue and events vary slightly from writer to writer! It’s just a matter of choosing who you want to read first :)
chapters will be posted on everyones accounts!
