A beautiful young woman leant against the wooden bars of her sons' cot. They had only just been put down but were already in a deep sleep, she couldn't find it in her to walk from their sides she wanted to watch them. To protect them, even though there was nothing wrong.

A light hand rested on her shoulder and she tore her eyes from their peaceful faces for a mere moment to look into her husband's deep scarlet eyes. He smiled at her looking into her cerulean eyes he could see she was tired; she hadn't slept in days. Watching over her sons night and day, not giving them a moment on their own.

"You should go to bed; if you want I'll watch over them" he assured his tone soft and honest. As she was about to nod her agreement a slight noise came from the cot. Her eyes snapped from him to the two small bodies in the cot. One was still in a deep sleep his eyes closed two tendrils of ginger hair dangling before them. The other had his tiny eyes opened a crack light crimson shone from them as he looked up at his parents.

"What are you doing up?" She asked as she reached down to rub his small cheek with her thumb. Looking him over she saw his blankets had been dislodged. A tired smile worked its way onto her face as she tucked her arms under his back and head lifting him from the bed to fix his blanket.

With the blanket loosened the baby boy managed to take his hand from the wrapped material, reaching up as far as he could his small fingers touched the side of her face. His mouth opening silently as he looked over her face.

Her hair was a bright ginger flowing down to her waist, her face was pale and slender, her eyes standing out drawing attention to themselves. She closed her eyes briefly as the boys fingers ran close to them before trailing down.

Her husband stood behind the two watching as the boy traced his mother's face. He watched with loving eyes as his son's fingers touched her lips causing her to kiss them slightly eliciting a small laugh from the tiny boy.

It warmed him to hear such an innocent laugh come from the one month old. Stepping forwards slightly to reach the boy more easily he ran his fingers through the small blue and slate hair.

"I'll never understand how they can be twins." He whispered to his wife as he glanced at the redhead who turned his head slightly in the secure blanket nuzzling the soft material.

"They look like us, this little one is like you and our little redhead looks like me" she answered as she watched the baby in her arms grab at her pyjama shirt. "Shh little boy" she soothed as she gently pried his hands away, pulling at the blanket so she could start to secure it to him.

"Still one wouldn't think of them as twins" she had finished tightening the blanket when he spoke again so she merely nodded in response as the baby closed his eyes though they quickly reopened as he wanted to stay awake watching them.

"Come on sweetie it's time to go to sleep" she whispered to him as he opened his mouth only for his eyes to shut involuntary.

"Little boy must be tired, he's had a long day" he looked at the solemn face of his son as his wife lowered him into the cot. Once he was settled next to his brother she turned to him looking at his face she knew he had come for a different reason than to tell her to go to bed.

"Can we talk outside?" She asked giving the two boys a final look, he nodded at her taking her elbow in his hand he led her from the room. Shutting the door most of the way so only a small stream of light made it through.

oooo

They walked side by side to a wide room the walls and floor a clear white. A computer was set in the middle of the room nothing else there. It looked barren and the computer being the only object made the room look even bigger.

Stopping just short of the computer they looked at each other.

"I thought we agreed not to do anything till we knew it was no longer safe for them" she began as she let out a long sigh half from distress of knowing what could happen to her sons and half from the exhaustion that was taking over.

"That's the thing we may not know but I know him, when he wants something he won't stop till he has it. He wants our children and he will take them no matter what. We need to send them away keep them sa-" a sharp slap cut him off

"How dare you say that?! They are safe with us, and they will stay safe. No one will touch my sons not him not no one. And don't you even think that they will" though his cheek stung from the smack he had received he knew she was panicking, placing his hand on her shoulder he gave it a gentle squeeze.

"I'm not saying that they won't be safe with us, they probably will be but I don't want to risk them being hurt because of that lunatic. I love them too much to ever put them in the position to be hurt. Please Vivian think it through, they can't ever be put in the position to be hurt by him. I won't allow it" he grabbed both of her shoulders as he spoke tightening his grip as he continued.

She let out a deep breath knowing he was right though it pained her to admit this.

"I don't want to lose them, but I don't want them to be hurt. If anything were to happen to them I would never forgive myself…where do you want them to go?"

"I think the only safe place would be away from our planet. His lord has control of our world he will find them no matter where we try to hide them. They'll be safe on another planet." He answered as he tapped a button on the computer's keyboard. The machine turned on and showed a planet of green and blue.

"Earth?" She asked though there was no mistaking that.

"Yes Earth, they look much like we do apart from a few facial features. I've done my research they'll blend in and we can see them whenever we want-"

"But not in person" she added as she looked to the ground.

"No not in person but we can see them that's the important part. Please trust me this will be the best thing for them." He kissed her forehead as he pulled her closer allowing her to wrap her arms around his waist.

"I don't want to say goodbye to them" she answered as a tear wetted her lashes threatening to spill. He stroked her ginger hair as he held her.

"Don't cry. It'll be ok"

"Where will they go?" She asked not letting go of him

"I managed to find two people who look quite a bit like us I don't know much about them but they seem good enough" Vivian was about to object before she realised she had no other choice not unless she wanted them to be kidnapped and used by that vile dictator.

"Ok" she answered her voice barely above a whisper.

"I'm sorry, I love you, you know that I wouldn't do this unless I had to" she mumbled a yes though he knew she didn't mean it.

"We have to send them tonight; while they're asleep they won't cry then. I know you won't be able to do this if they start to cry." Sniffing she nodded her head. "I'll do it all you just have to wait for me to get them ready then say goodbye" he was doing his best to hide his emotions, to hold them back otherwise he would cry and never be able to stop.

"I can't believe I have to do this. I hate that man, I hope he dies a painful death" she muttered as she released him so he could take their children. Kissing her forehead he looked into her eyes.

"I'm sorry we have to do this. You know I am, I love the boys but I want them to be safe." Not answering him she merely nodded watching after him as he left to grab the two sleeping boys.

oooo

Back in the boys room he pushed open the door looking at the cot resting in the corner of the room. A tear came to his eyes as he thought of leaving his boys. It killed him to think he couldn't spend every waking moment with them just watching them as they stared up at him as they slept by the other.

A single tear did manage to escape but he brushed it away. Reaching down into the crib he lifted the redhead out first balancing him on his arm. The small boy turned slightly in his hold his head resting against his chest, his father's steady heart beat keeping him in a deep sleep despite all the movement.

Reaching back in he lifted the blue haired boy, holding him carefully. Leaning him against his chest he let out a heavy breath.

"I can't believe this is the only option we have to keep our boys safe" leaving the room he held back the flood of tears that wanted to run free down his face.

oooo

Vivian was pacing the floor while she was alone, tears stung her eyes as she tried not to have a breakdown. She was leaving her children to some Earth being.

"Vivian" looking up she stared at her husband her twins asleep in his arm "take one of them will you?" Lifting the redhead from his arms she cradled him close keeping her eyes set on him while her husband pressed a few buttons on the computer.

"Susumu" was all she managed to say before closing her eyes and turning from him holding the baby tighter

"I know it's hard, I hate to do this but I want them to be safe. I've been planning keeping them safe since the day we found out we were having twins. I even built a ship for them to escape on." Pressing one final button the floor opened up, the hole in the ground was deep but something was coming from it, growing as it approached the four.

As the ship settled on the ground Vivian looked it over; it was a smooth ship with a solid black coating the light in the room catching it and making it shine.

"This will take them to Earth?" She asked not convinced that it would be safe for them.

"Yes, don't worry it's fine I've checked it over many times" he assured as he pressed one final button on the computer. The top of the ship slid back into each other showing a padded bed underneath. "The ship will leave them outside their door before flying back here." Bending down he placed the boy onto the cushion watching him nuzzle the cushion.

Finally letting herself breakdown she laid the bluenette on the pillow beside his twin.

"I can't do this. Not my babies" she cried as arms wrapped around her pulling her close.

"I'm sorry" he told her.

"Wait before you close the door I want to make sure they'll be safe" reaching into her pocket she pulled out two small chips. A red phoenix and a white wolf. A chain was through the chips allowing them to be worn when the boys were older. Laying them on the boys' chests the wolf on the redhead the phoenix on the bluenette "They'll keep them safe" she nodded content with the addition she had made as he pressed the same button he had a moment ago the top starting to close.

"They'll be fine. I'm sure of it" pressing the final button he would have to ever press he watched as the ship started to lift from the ground. Tears poured from both of their eyes as their children flew off. They would never see their parents again.

oooo

The two boys were fast asleep as they left the war ridden world they had only known for the month they were alive. The two chips on their chests shone slightly before dimming as not to wake the twins.

They slept throughout the flight neither stirring or moving once as they were cradled by the soft cushion that was to be their bed for the flight.

As the flight continued they passed universe after universe the ship ignoring each and every one of them, it had had its coordinates set in and knew where it was to go. Earth, England. The rest would be transmitted once they were there.

oooo

Finally reaching their final destination the ship landed outside the small house, the bottom opening slowly two extendable arms stretched out as the boys were lowered down onto the ground. The small shake they received when let drop the few millimetres onto the ground did nothing to them, both far too deep in their dreams to feel anything happening around them.

The ship started to take off again the sound coming from the engines waking the occupants in the house. A second floor light came on as the curtains were opened a crack allowing the people inside to peak out to catch anyone possible trying to steal from them.

They didn't see what they had expected instead of some lowlife trying to break in they saw two small bodies on the floor a pale blue pillow the only thing keeping them off the cold floor.

"What is it Jay?" The woman asked as she strained her eyes.

"No idea but it looks like some kids" he answered scratching his head in confusion.

"Well get out and see" she ordered practically kicking him out of the bed. Grumbling to himself he stood from the bed pulling her with him.

"I have to go you do too" he retorted

"Baby" she muttered as she too stood from the bed grabbing her dressing gown so she could be affected by the cold.

The two boys were still fast asleep when the ship left them; they were still deep in their dreams when the door opened. Neither noticed when the cushion was picked up or the two voices that filled the silent night air.

"It's two boys. Think they're twins they look like they might be" the woman asked looking over their facial features which were similar to the others.

"Looks like it; whose do you think they belong to?" Jay asked running his fingers over his shaved ginger hair.

"Don't know don't care." She answered as she turned to walk into the house the two boys on the cushion in her arms.

"So you're just taking them?"

"Looks like it" looking after his girlfriend Jay shook his head. He didn't want kids or like them much but he loved his girlfriend and if she wanted a new toy she was going to get it. It didn't mean he would have to be nice to them. Quite the opposite in fact.
