[Payton's POV]

Rachel and I arrived home soon after that and didn't waste a moment and began searching for Mai around the house.

'Girls?' Her femiliar feminine voice asked, slight worry behind it. 'Is everything alright?'

'No.' We whimpered. 'Our mother has stolen our mother.'

'Shes transfered all the money I earnt from my previous job to her account and closed mine down.' I teared up, overwhelmed with such anger.

Mai just stared at us. 'What do you think I could do? I'm a kidsitter not a parental figure to you two.'

'But... Can't you tell us what we can do?!' Rachel teared up.

'I've known you a day. I've known your family a month. You two are 16 nearly 17, you can work it out.' She muttered and turned away, walking back across the hallway to the kitchen.

'What a big help that was...' I muttered sarcastically.

'I guess all we can count on is dad now.' Rachel sighed.

'Wait...' I gasped. 'Think about it... What could dad do? Mother isn't breaking the law, we are still technically children in the governments mind so...'

'You're right.' She growled. 'What did you suggest?'

I frowned thinking of all options which were possible.

I can always get another job but keep the money hidden somewhere then just have to suck up the fact that mother stole over £3000 from me.

Or perhaps.

'We could get an account in dads name... As in ask him.' Rachel and I muttered in sync. 'Then mum wouldn't be able to do transfers without our or dads permission, at least for the next year and a bit.'

We nodded. 'That could work.'

'Let's not ask yet though.' Rachel gulped. 'Neither of us have a job so no money would be going into it.'

I nodded. 'Lets just focus on school for a week or so, then I'll start hunting for something, if I get a good well paid job I'll stop school but if its like short hours and crap pay I'll keep attending.'

She nodded. 'That's a plan.'

'That's done then. Let's try not to stab that woman through her heart when we see her.'

Rachel reached into her pocket and snarled. 'Speaking of which I got a text from her.'

'Why does she always text you?' I mumbled.

'I'm the good twin.' Rachel giggled.

'Good my arse.' I snorted.

Rachel held her phone towards me and flicked to the recent text from our mother and just like I'd expected it was a list of things that must be done on her arrival.

''Rachel and Payton. Once I touch down in Japan there are a few questions I will asking you, such as; How do you count to ten in Japanese? Tell me how the weather is in Japenese? What are your predicted grades? (they better be B or over) I also expect for my bed to be maid and ironed with extra pillows near the tail end as well as being well stocked in Humous. Mother.''

'Heartless cow.' I muttered. 'No ''How was your first day?'' or ''We miss you'' or even a kiss on the end.'

'Calm down, Payton.' Rachel growled, angry herself. 'Like you would've expected different, if she did say ''how was your first day'' I'd probably get worried...'

I smiled slightly. 'Your right... So... Now that we're pissed what should we do?'

'Go to town.' Rachel sighed. 'And hope to god they sell humous.'

I nodded. 'We can perhaps get something to make the uniform a bit bearable tommorow as well.'

'What like?'

'A biker jacket.' I snickered. 'Big black boots.'

Rachel shook her head. 'How about we just go play some football in the park? Just buy a nice ball and have a kick about.'

'Perfect!' I sang. 'I'm changing into my lucky shirt.'

'As am I.' Rachel snickered and the two of us sprinted into our room and rumanged through our suitcases till we both grabbed our favourite football shirts.

'Liverpool for the win!' Rachel laughed.

I snorted. 'In your dreams, Portsmouth are so much better.'

'Portsmouth went bankrupt.'

'Liverpools always been shit.' I snapped back.

'LIVERPOOL HAS STEVEN GERARD.'

'Exactly.' I laughed and readied myself for impact as Rachel lunged at me and tackled me to the floor.

'YOU HORRIBLE TWIN!' She laughed.

'Says the one killing me with her massive bum!'

'HARSH!'

[Unknown's POV]

'Have you got a plan together now, brother?'

I nodded my head slowly. 'I'll make her fall in love with me, she seems like the more vulnerable twin. I'll make her love me, one way or another and then I'll break her to tiny pieces and no one will ever save her, maybe then they will learn their lessons.'

'Brilliant, brother. I presume you know which one you will seduce.'

'Aye.' I smirked. 'You'll know which one when you see them together. Then apart.'

'So how will you start?'

'It will be a slow going thing just to make the heartbreak that much worse.' I grinned. 'It'll all start with giving her a pencil in maths.'

[Rachel's POV]

'That's a foul!' Payton screamed. 'OFFSIDE!'

'How am I offside when there's two of us?' I laughed whilst pelting our new football down the large field we played on.

Payton and I loved football, when we were younger we prefered watching it on TV together then for a while we played for seperate football teams for girls, then we just played it at school. Then when year 10 came along we tended to just revise. (meaning I just tended to, not Payton)

'CHEATER!' She snarled.

'SORE LOSER!' I laughed back as I kicked the ball through the little goal I had set up.

She mumbled as she walked over to the other goal posts and picked up the many bags as we had decided just before I scored the next goal would win before we headed home.

'I'm tired,' I laughed. 'I forgot how exhauting shopping can be.'

'You mean how exhausting looking for humous is, we hardly bought anything compared to how many shops we went in looking for humous.'

'Stupid humous.' We snickered as I dialed a cab on my mobile.

'Haisutorīto. Arigatō. Miss Powers. (The High street. Thank you.)' I said robotically when a voice answered.

'Nioi shiri.' Payton suddenly snickered.

'What does that mean?' I sighed. 'You've been researching I see.'

'Jinjā.'

'I can just guess what that means. You called me ginger in Japanese didn't you?'

Payton giggled whilst nodding 'And before that I called you smelly bum.'

'You know, I seem to always feel your twin love for me.'

'Girl, I do love you. But if I start being nice to you, you should be scared and expect the worst.'

'What like attempted twincest?' I snickered whilst Payton just nodded, a creepy rape face masking her usual grin.

'Ok...' I gulped. 'On that note, you're getting your own taxi.'

'What? And losing the remaining money I have left?' She snorted. 'I think not, sister.'

'I think you have no choice, sister.'

'I shall glue my self to you... sister.'

'I shall peel you off because glue isn't that strong, sister.' I laughed.

'I'll use super glue and hold on for dear life, sister.'

'Why do we keep saying sister, sister?' I snickered.

'I have no idea, sister.'

'Let's stop then.'

'Yes.' She breathed a sigh of relief.

'There's the taxi now.' I snickered. 'Great timing.'

'Isn't it just?'

I turned to my twin and frowned whilst struggling not to laugh. 'What's with the convertion to posh?'

'Jinjā o shimeru. (Shut up, Ginger.)'

'You've got the same hair colour as me!' I laughed.

We clambered into the taxi and gave the address and just sat patiently, staring idolly out the window.

'What do you plan on doing tonight?' Payton suddenly asked.

'Revising Japanese before mother comes, then preparing my bag and clothes for tommorow. You?' I smirked knowing her answer already.

'Reading those new mangas I bought, while I still have my account in my name I'm spending as much money as I can before it's gone and I make another account.'

'Speaking of which we'll call dad when we get home.' I smiled. 'I want an account too to put some savings in.'

'Why don't we just share again?' Payton asked. 'What's mine is yours twinny?'

'Yeah but you'll have earnt the money, you would've done the work.'

'And you would've had to listen to me complaining about it. We both minus somehow.' She giggled. 'I want you to share the account with me. When you get your own job of course you can have your own but while you don't just share mine with me.'

I sighed, defeated. I couldn't say no to my twin.

'I might call Kauru later.' I mumbled.

'Why?' Payton immediatly asked.

'Because he's nice. I want to be friends with him.'

Payton was silent.

'Do you have a problem with wanting to be friends with him and Hikaru?'

No answer.

'Payton-'

'I'm thinking about quiting a little earlier than a month.' She suddenly said. 'Maybe next week, I don't care about school, I'll go for the tests but not the lessons 'cause I don't care. I just want to work.'

'But Payton you didn't answer my question, do you-'

'I'm also thinking about getting a cheap flat, away from mother and our stupid siblings, away from everything and just live of the fatta the land.' She interupted again.

'That's great, Payton but-'

'Oh look! We're home!' She gasped and sprinted out the car even though it was still moving and into the house.

The taxi driver gave me a look in his mirror and I just sighed, pulling the money out of my purse.

'She's not usually like this.' I lied. 'Which makes me all the more worried.'

'Watashi wa eigo o, ai o hanasanai. (I don't speak English, love.)' The taxi driver smiled.

'Sōrī. (Sorry)' I mumbled. 'Arigatō. (Thank you.)'

I stepped out the car and slowly walked towards the house carrying my bags and the bags Payton forgot when she sprinted off.

I'll interogate or later. I know whatever happens will probably end in us sleeping in seperate beds tonight.

[A/N Not even going to bother saying Unknown for this one, It's Benjamin if you didn't know.]

[Benjamin's POV]

'Mother. What of Rachel and Payton?' I asked as Mother stomped around the house, her strange trousers which looked like they were inside out high up her waist.

'They can do as they like the brats.' She snarled. 'They've been there a day. A day.'

'They had their first day today.' I mumbled. 'What did Mai say?'

'They went in dressed as skanks.' Mother snarled. 'They missed most of their lessons and were extrememly rude to a maths teacher.'

'Who told you mum? The school would've called that woman you made look after them wouldn't they.' Chloe smiled happily.

Chloe was the only one who called Mother, mum and that was because she was the favourite child and mum spoilt rotten, unlike me the eldest, the first born. I get nothing, not even special treatment cause I'm her only little boy.

Well... I'm not.

Thomas is her little boy.

I'm the other boy.

'I have no idea who called, it wasn't Mai and it certainly wasn't a teacher. It was perhaps a classmate of them.'

'Not even going to consider that classmate was lying?' I mumbled.

'Well it sounds like the thing those little sluts would do. Jeez, I'm surprised the idiots aren't knocked up yet.'

'Hey!' Chloe gasped.

'Oh not you, darling!' Mother cooed and swooned to her daughter, resting her hands gently on Chloes bulging belly. 'You're legal.'

'Rachel and Payton are legal.' I grumbled. 'They're nearly 17.'

'They weren't when they did it for the first time, you stupid boy. Honestly, I don't believe that you're straight A student one bit.'

'I am straight A mother.' I growled. 'I'm done with school now so I can't be anything less.'

'Or more.' She mumbled.

Still not good enough? I see.

'You just said you didn't believe I was straight A.' I suddenly snarled, regretting it instantly as mother came over and knowing my punishment didn't even try to stop her as her hand lifted and sliced through the air and against my bare cheek hard.

'Don't snarl at me, incolent boy.'

Out of the corner of my eye, Chloe was smirking at me but I didn't blame her.

I smiled on the few occasions Mother struck Chloe.

The both of us laughed when Mother would strike the twins.

'Have you packed?' Mother turned around instantly and faced Chloe. 'For you and junior.'

'His names not Junior, Mum.' Chloe rolled his eyes.

'If you think I'm going to allow you to call him Hate you have another thing coming. I want that child to have an English name, not Japanese as the child is not Japanese.' Mother pointed her bony fingers at Chloes large stomach then snickered. 'Something simple like Brian, or Jim... Or Thomas.'

Chloe and I instantly paled but just laughed Mothers suggestions away with laughter.

Gosh, as much as I hated my sisters I envied them, envied that they got to leave early to go to school. I don't intend because I'm 19 and schools finished for me. Chloe should be attending but she's pregnant so mother pulled her out.

Lucky girl.

'Chloe,' I turned to my sister. 'Have you spoke to Nathaniel lately?'

Mothers head snapped to me and she glared hard. 'Who's Nathaniel? I don't know a Nathaniel? Hush, stupid boy.'

Chloe whimpered at the repetative use of his names. 'No I have not. He does not want anything to do with me or Kirai.'

'That's not the child's name!' Mother screamed whilst Chloe tried to keep her poker face.

'He's missing out though, isn't he?' Chloe whimpered. 'He looses me and his first born, his first chance at a family.'

'He's nearly 18. I don't think he wanted a family.' I whispered and again, instantly regretted what I'd done and was rewarded with another hard slap, sending me spiralling to the floor this time.

'SHUT UP!' Mother screamed.

'I apoligise.' I whispered.

'What about you, Benjamin?' Chloe asked. 'What are you to do when we arrive in Japan?'

I gave a quick glance to mother than back to Chloe giving her that look, the not-with-mother-here look.

She nodded, understanding instantly whilst I thought... What was I going to go when we arrive in Japan?

Probably call my secret fiance Marie and tell her I love her.

Mother didn't approve of our relationship and would certainly never approve of a marriage which is why it's a secret until I get my job, save my money and come back to England to marry the woman I love.

If you asked anyone about what they thought of me they'd say I'm a heartless beast but if I had to say what I think of myself, I'd say I'm a robot, I robot with only one purpose... For now.

If you asked what they thought of my sister they'd say she was a bitch and for the most part they'd be correct.

But now that I think about it, if you asked what they thought of my twin sisters, Rachel and Payton, they wouldn't be able to answer unless they were close friends with them as my sisters don't tend to let anyone into their hearts, showing their true selves to people.

And I can't help but feel responsible for that.
