~Chapter 8: The Problem~
Shadow looked at the twins playing as he walked over to Mephiles. "What does Lord Ragnar want with Bonnie," asked Shadow. "I don't know. Maybe their parents know," responded Mephiles. Shadow looked at him in confusion. "I thought you were their father," said Shadow. Mephiles stood up and said, "Yes, but not their birth-father."
Shadow: What do you mean?
Mephiles: I only found them in an alleyway. I didn't bring them into the world, I only brought them to my home to raise them for I found them in a box near a dumpster.
Shadow: Who are their parents then?
Mephiles: I don't know. The note I found with the twins didn't said.
Shadow: Then how are we going to find the parents of these two?
Mephiles and Shadow turned their heads so they were looking at the twins. Then both Shadow and Mephiles noticed that the commander was standing in the doorway. "How long have you been standing there, commander?" asked Shadow. "Long enough," said the commander in response.
Commander: I have a solution to your problem.
Shadow: What is it?
Commander: Well, with Mephiles's permission, we could do a DNA test on the twins to see who their parents are.
Mephiles: *angrily* Out of the question.
Commander: Now, Mephiles, no need to get defensive.
Mephiles started to lunge towards the commander when Shadow pulled him back. Mephiles sighed and said, "Fine, if you can catch the two, you can do a DNA test on them." The commander reached down to pick up the twins when Mephiles said, "Bonnie, Clyde, go and play hide-and-seek with the commander." When that was said, Bonnie and Clyde started to run away and hid somewhere in the base. "Why did you do that," asked the commander. Mephiles said in response, "I do recall saying 'if you can catch the two'." The commander turned around and sent one of the soldiers to catch the twins.
