Prologue/Background

Max and Riley Kenton (twins) are in a tough spot. Max hasn't seen his dad, Charlie, since he was around the age of five. Where Riley never even met the man. They know Charlie was a pretty good boxer, but man-to-man boxing is now illegal and only Robot Boxing is allowed.

Though Max and Riley grown up with there mother, she recently died in a car crash. Now they have nowhere to live. Their rich aunt and uncle want to adopt them but the law says they can't do that without Charlie's permission.

When they all meet up in family court, Charlie is almost ready to give up his children for good when he hears the uncle talk about a trip to Italy they have planned for the summer - The uncle sounds like he'd be just as happy not to be dragging his young eleven year old niece and nephew along.- This gives Charlie an idea…

Because he's desperate for cash, Charlie makes a deal with the uncle: He'll take the kids of their hands for the summer in exchange for 75 thousand dollars (telling the aunt he just wants some family time with his kids before they go) and then he'll return Max and Riley to them when they get back.

Sorry it was really short but I had to put it out there (the prologue you know). Next chapter will probably be longer and way better I promise. If you want reviews would be awesome! Thanks!
