Hello my viewers! So, are we ready to see the normal lives of Corey and the crew? Yes you do! And don't worry, if you like the war parts I'm sure I can throw one or two in.

Kin: You're going to put us threw hell again aren't you?

Me: Maybe, depends on my mood.

Kin: How's you're mood?

Me: Furious!

Chapter 12: A shocking brainwashing

The boys sat at home talking to they're wives and girlfriends and talking about their adventures against their virtual enemy. But Kin was a bit troubled.

Not about his invention failing and blowing up in his face, no that happens so many times he had to get use to it.

He discussed it with Kim as they sat on the couch watching Eric.

"What are you trying to say Kin?" "My invention malfunctioned, sure I'm used to that but we experienced a virtual war. There must be side affects." Kin paced the room and his curious son watched him.

"What are you worrying yourself about Kin? The others are fine! They're so happy!" "Yea but instead of the game giving us the powers we actually trained to become Delta force soldiers." "So?"

Kin looked at himself stupidly. "If we train, fought, and were Delta force soldiers even in the digital world we should fell post war depression." "But...the room couldn't have malfunctioned to that point were you guys felt it was that real."

Kin sat down in a slump. "The room is supposed to give an electronic shock of two volts of electricity to bump the ability of the person to suit that game in their brain. We didn't get those volts, we worked as if we were recruited."

Kim gasped, it was more than possible that they would experience the depression. "Can we do anything?" "No, if we tell them about the depression it could trigger it when it was never going to. We wait and watch. And that means you."

Kim looked at Kin funny. "Why me?" "I can't watch them. The things that Corey and the others maybe suffering from will appear normal for me. Like sleeping with a pistol under the pillow." Kim nodded.

Alex laid in his bed reading a comic book about Captain America. The book was exciting at a point until Alex came to a picture of a man firing a gun towards the reader.

Alex got a flash of Black swinging the blade towards him but it ended just as fast as it came. He threw the comic book on the floor and started to sweat. He walked into his bathroom.

He ran some water and splashed it in his face. He looked up in the mirror and saw Black. "You are pathetic." He stepped back and rubbed his eyes. The image of Black was gone.

Alex was not about to tell the others that he was freaking out because of a video game. He stood in his room and looked around trying to remind himself that this was reality.

Friday came in and casually walked into his bathroom and closed the door. "Ever hear about this thing called knocking? I think you should try it!" "Whatever boy candy."

She came out in her pajamas and kissed him pulling him to bed. "What's this about?" "Well since you've been 'away' for so long I thought you couldn't get enough me. So I decided we could sleep together!" The boy shrugged and smiled.

"Goodnight." Friday said giving him a kiss. "Night." And he turned the light off and fell quickly to sleep.

Corey lay in his bed with Laney already sleeping. He couldn't sleep and looked around the room. He felt find but for some reason it felt weird sleeping in a bed. He was already use to being under a tank.

He felt weird and got up slowly to avoid being detect by Laney. It was easy anyway, she's a heavy sleeper.

Corey opened his draw and picked up the case he kept his pistol. He walked around the house giving it a fill sweep. "Why the hell does this feel so right?" Corey said still in his pajamas.

He stopped at the pool and looked at the two lawn chairs that stood there. He remembered the two virtual soldiers he killed right there and he fell back scared of the thought. He flipped open his phone and called Kin.

"Hey dude, we need to talk."

At Nick's house he was ready for bed and walked into the room. He laid in the bed but couldn't sleep.

There was a serious thunder storm happening outside. Nick was anything but afraid of thunder and lightening.

He laid on his stomach and stuffed his face in his pillow and felt as if someone was watching him. He ignored the feeling but then a low bang caused him to jump up and point his hidden pistol that was under his pillow at the door.

Mina stood at the door with her hands in the air and she respond. "Are you okay?" "I'm sorry! It just felt so weird sleeping without my pistol!" "It's okay. I have a feeling I know what you're going threw, let's call Kin."

Alex laid in his bed sleeping until he heard a bark. He remembered the dogs in Delta mountains and shot up. He grabbed the innocent Pretzel's neck out of complete instinct.

He put the little dog down and apologized. To make up he got a treat out of his draw and feed it to the dog. He looked back expecting Friday to still be sleeping but she was sitting up in the bed a little freaked out.

"Wow, that was awesome but freaky at the same time." "I'm sorry! It's...I just reacted." He said. "It's okay Alex, you've been in that game for a long time."

Friday rubbed his back and rested her head on his shoulder as he looked down and pet the little dog. Pretzel was okay and licked the boy's fingers. "I hope that means I forgive you." Alex said petting the little dog.

Kin knocked at Corey's door and behind him was Nick and Mina. Kin held some sort of device in his hand. "Hell no." "It's the only way bro."

Kin walked in and sat the device on the table in front of the couch. Corey called for Alex and Friday and Laney came down too. Her stomach still big.

"This is my de and re shocker 2000. It provides shocks to the brain in various locations to reduce mental trauma." Nick nodded. "Okay, tell me about the part that can blow up." "It is 89% safe!" The group gave the glare.

"Okay 79 but that's still a good number!" The group sighed. Nick sat on the couch and Kin plugged the device into a nearby outlet.

It clicked and the screen turned green. It showed 500 volts but Kin dialed it down to a safe 2 volts. "Alright, it going to give you a shock and you'll forget completely about our encounter with the game room."

Nick nodded as Kim and Kin hooked wires to his head. "Okay everyone, when the shock is complete no one ask if it worked or if he remembers anything. We will never talk about the game incident ever again."

Laney raised her hand. "What if we accidentally remind them?" "Overtime it will be harder to remember but if you found away to get it through to them it will cause all their memories to come back and we will have to do this again." Everyone nodded as Kim put on the last wire.

"Okay Nick, look at this watch." Kim pulled out an old watch and rocked it back and forth. "You are getting very sleepy. When I clip my fingers you will fall into a deep sleep." Nick felt very tired and when Kim clipped her fingers he fell to sleep.

"Awesome..." Kon said. "Okay Nick, you will only remember the events of the game room when someone says 'Trina will have tea with a toddler's teen.'" Nick nodded in his sleep and Kin gave him the shock. He immediately shot up.

"What...just happened?" Dude you fell down the stairs, we brought you up here. Don't you remember?" "No...I guess it's not that important anyway." Kin whispered into Mina's ear.

"Take him out of the room so he doesn't see the brainwash." Mina nodded and pulled Nick into the theater.

"Alright, let's try Alex this time." They went on and did the same practice and gave the same code to the boys. Kin was the final one to receive the shock and he stood up.

"Awe Kim, why are we at Core's place?" "We came here to have a little visit right girls?" The others nodded.

Laney sat down on the couch watching the whole event. She was glad her husband, son and friends were in good condition. She got up to go back to bed when Amani shouted.

"Mommy! Laney slipped water!" "I didn't have any water...Oh crap..." "Laney's going to have the twins! Corey! Boys!" Kim screamed.

Everyone ran into the room and found the water on the floor and Laney getting a bit scared. Corey ran to his wife and held her and shout orders.

"Alex, get the bag! Kin, drive! Kon get everyone in the cars!" Corey started to the door with Laney. They drove to the hospital where Laney sat and waited in her room.

"Laney, we're going to have our twins!" "Yea, how exciting for the guy who just has to stand there!" Laney said in a fowl tone. "Just breath Laney." "Are you trying to tell me how to breath?! I KNOW HOW TO BREATH!"

Corey stood there petting his wife hands and she gave him a squeeze and Corey fell to the floor on his knees. "Dear God that hurts!"

"Okay, Mrs. Rifften," Chance Happening said reading her clip board. "Let's get your twins into the world hmm?" "Get these children out of me so I can kill Corey!" "Is she serious or is that the hormones?" "Little bit between, now...PUSH!"

Alex looked at his watch, 2:49 it told him and he rested his head on Friday's lap as she played with his hair. "Why does everyone have to give birth so damn early?" Friday wonders.

"You think she could be any more hurtful?" Kon said to Kin wincing from her comments about Corey.

"Did I jut hear Kon?! I HE IS SUCH AN IDIOT!" "See!" "Come on dude, just imagine if you was giving birth to two kids that about as big as your head." "Are you trying to scar me for life?" "AHHHHHHHH!" Another scream from the room.

Nick laid on the row of empty plastic and uncomfortable chairs. He laughed at the screams. "That's not funny." Mina said. "Yea but what she says is killing me." "Why don't you try giving birth?" Trina said walking up with her purse on her shoulder.

"Hey Trina." "Hi Nick, Sup girl!" She said hugging her friend. "So, where's yours?" "Nope, nope, nope. No kids for me thank you." "Why not?" "Not much of a kid person."Trina shrugged.

"You two must be using some serious protection." "Only the best. Besides, we're here for our gran kids." "I wish I could have kids." "Find the right guy!" Mina said with a smile on her face. "We'll go man hunting later."

Trina touched her hair nervously. "Who would want to date a psycho like me?" "Oh please, you could find a guy easy Trina. He's out there somewhere." "I guess."

Another scream caused everyone to go quiet. Amani and Eric played with a few toys on the floor. They wondered what was all the noise about.

"Is Uncle Corey's wife okay Daddy?" Amani asked. "Yea, she's just having a bit of pain okay?" "What kind of pain?" Kon cringed.

"Hmmm...You remember when you fell down and got a cut on your finger?" "Yea?" "Imagine that a million times worst." "That hurts a lot daddy!"

Kon chuckled and ruffled his daughter's hair. She was a little curious one. 30 minutes passed and next thing you know was complete silence.

Alex got up still on Friday's lap and looked up with her asleep. He got up and heard nothing and from his experience with Kim he ran to the room Laney was in.

"Are they here?!" He said silently screaming. Corey held one child and Laney held another. Alex smiled as everyone else appeared behind him.

Corey held the boy, Mason and Laney held the girl, Madison. The two fraternal twins already showed who they looked like. They both had Laney's red hair but the little boy looked more like Corey. The little girl looked much like Laney.

"Everyone, meet Madison and Mason."

I did you guys a favor! I wasn't going to let Laney give birth until chapter 20! So I expect a thank you! Just kidding. So, Madison and Mason. I am such a good name giver.

Corey: Don't get ahead yourself bro.

Me: Hey Laney, do you still have your pepper spray?

Laney: Yea...(Hands Pepper spray)

Me: Hey Corey, I have a surprise for you!
