Fifi tried to go back to sleep but she just couldn't. Fifi sighed, got out of bed and walked into the Living room and Leaning back on her many pillows, she tried once again to go back to sleep, as she was still very tired. However, she couldn't go back to back to sleep."

A few hours later, Everyone in Madeline's family was getting up for the day. Madeline was still fast asleep. Paul walked over to his daughter's bed "Madeline time to wake up sweetheart." Madeline mumbled something and opened her eyes. "Good morning sweetheart." Paul said as Madeline tiredly got out of bed. "Morning dad" Madeline replied and yawned. After getting dressed in her new clothes, The family of six made their way out of the room down the hall and to the elevator where they met up with the others. After a quick elevator ride to the lobby, the group made their way back to the restaurant.
Madeline yawned and asked her sister "Alice what time it is?"
Alice said almost time for Breakfast" are you okay'?
Fifi said no I'm really tired' that storm woke me up last night and I just couldn't go back to sleep. Fifi yawned.
Bell said same there were storms when we were stuck in the factory, but it never woke us up when we were all sleeping in that one little room together. Sleeping apart isn't working.

Betsy said well we better eat cause we Leave for your Cheeks up right after we Eat"
Violet said oh alright"

Madeline yawned and thanked Baileywick for putting breakfast in front of her, Goldenberry pancakes with blueberry syrup drizzled on top.
Looking at the food, she didn't feel hungry at all despite not eating since dinner the previous evening, but she forced herself to eat at least a quarter of what she normally ate.
Once the group was done, everyone got up and headed to the lobby to meet their taxi. Maxwell then noticed the news van and the camera crew waiting outside the door to get a glimpse of the girls. Maxwell said ``Um Dad there are Reports waiting outside ``''Paul looked at the group and said "Let's exit through the back door, the girls don't need this right now. The other parents agreed and everyone made their way through the back exit.
After a quick taxi ride to the hospital, the group made their way up to the 5th floor where the girls had another physical therapy session. After that was done, it was time to meet up with Doctor Daniel and Doctor Ray for a checkup. To everyone's surprise the nurses who were checking the girls vitals, were none other than Nurse Tilly and Nurse Amber.
"Hello girls, nice to see you all looking much better." Nurse Amber said.
The girls smiled.
After that was done Doctor Ray and Doctor Daniel came in and checked each girl over. After their checkup, the large group of girls, parents and siblings made their way into the office of the two doctors.
Dr Daniel said I'm very pleased with the amount of progress that has been made in these last two weeks." The girls are almost back up to their normal weight." Dr Ray said normally I wouldn't let the girls go from under My Care just yet but seeing how well they have done, I'll release them back home. I'll send their paperwork to Paris and Dr Carlisle will take over there for Physical therapy. Have there been any problems over these last two weeks?" Dr Daniel asked.
David said we took them to the Hotel restaurant last week and everything was going fine there until it started getting really crowded and loud there."
Dr Daniel asked David why did you all want to try a Crowded Restaurant.
Davied said "Well we just wanted to see how the girls would do in a larger public setting seeing how well they had been doing.
Dr Ray nodded. He then asked how about this morning have any of the girls had any troubles from Last night with the storm?
Margert said yep Fifi hardly slept last night she was wide awake"
Paul said I know Madeline gave me a hard time about Waking up also.
Amy said ` I know Paul but Madeline ate half of her breakfast. She has been doing so well the Last few days" maybe it was just too Early' for the Kids' to be awake'?
Dr Daniel nodded and said well until they fully recover, just keep an eye on them for a few more days. After thanking the doctors for helping treat their children, the group made their way back downstairs and got into the taxi.

"Yeah I know how to swim because aunt Kathy gave me lessons but she didn't teach Madeline." Riley said, pulling a video tape from her bag and turning it on (Riley had taken the video tape from Aunt Kathy's house and it showed what happened when Madeline fell into the river.) While the tape was playing, Madeline had calmed down and walked back into the bedroom only to be gathered into her parents arms. Paul and Amy's eyes grew wide as they saw their youngest daughter screaming for help. Once the tape was over, Amy looked up at her husband with tears in her eyes. After a few moments of silence, Amy wiped her eyes.

"That's right Maddie I rode in an ambulance and everything." Riley said.
"Y.. You had Surgery?" Paul stammered

"Aunt Kathy was so nice to me while I was in the hospital." Riley said
Paul had heard enough. "Alright that's enough for tonight let's all now get a goodnight sleep and we will continue everything in the morning."
Madeline and Riley nodded as they climbed off of their parent's lap and got into bed.
" Goodnight Girls Amy said as she gave each of her daughters a kiss and a hug.
"Sweet dreams you two. Paul said.
The twins fell asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillows. "Paul and Amy watched their two children for a moment before climbing into bed themselves.

Paul said sorry Amy.
"I know you are "Amy sighed. "I just can't help feeling angry for what Kathy did to both of our girls.

"I'm so happy to hear that." Miss Clavel said.
Paul agreed. "Yes I'm also calling to let you know that we will be returning to Paris in a couple of days." Miss Clavel heard footsteps and looked up to find the little girls peeking over the stair railing. "The other girls who were kidnapped will be coming to Paris as well.
"I see well have a safe trip back, and we are looking forward to having Riley and Madeline back." Miss Clavel said as she ended the call.

"Paul is everything alright?" Amy asked.
Paul nodded "I just got a call from two officers who want to interview the twins at Kathy's house when we get to Paris."
"Oh dear I hope this won't frighten the girls." Amy said.
"Don't worry the officers will let us be with them." Paul said
Amy gave a huge sigh of relief. "I'm glad about that. Also after we drop both of the twins back with Miss Clavel, We're going to have to take Alice and Maxwell back home to Texas so they can't miss anymore school.
Paul nodded. I agree we will just have to make sure that Madeline knows that we won't abandon her." Paul said.
Amy nodded. After everyone was packed, (Which took all day) Everyone went to bed early.

Amy said "Madeline, Riley when we get back to Paris, some officers want to talk to both of you.
" Madeline looked nervous. "Are they going to tell us that we can't be around you or dad anymore?" Madeline asked as she started to bite her nails. (A nervous habit she had started while being in the factory.)
Amy gathered both twins in her lap. "No, of course not." Amy said hugging Madeline and Riley tightly."
"The officers just want to ask the both of you questions about when you lived with Kathy." Paul said.
"Aunt Kathy won't be there will she?" Riley asked.
Paul and Amy shook their heads. "Girls Kathy isn't your Aunt at all.
"She's not?" Madeline and Riley were shocked.
"No, she only pretended to be your aunt so she wouldn't be caught for kidnapping the both of you." Paul told his two shocked daughters.
"Also we want you to know that once we drop you both off with Miss Clavel, We have to take Maxwell and Alice back home to Texas so they can go back to school." Amy said.
Hearing that, Madeline's eyes filled with tears.
"What's wrong sweetheart Paul asked?
" "I.. If you and mom are leaving us we will never see you both again." Madeline sobbed.
"Oh Maddie that's not true." We will never leave you girls." Amy said as she comforted her little girl. "We'll be back soon I promise."
"That's right, Maddie Families never will leave one another." Maxwell said.
Madeline sniffed and nodded. Amy adjusted Madeline in her arms and said "Why don't you take a little rest, it will help you feel better." Madeline was tired but before she fell asleep,
she asked "Do you think we could introduce Alice and Maxwell and the other girls to Miss Clavel and our friends and have a sleepover?"
"You'll have to ask Miss Clavel that." Paul said with a chuckle.
Madeline nodded once again as her body relaxed and her eyes closed.
Amy leaned down and gave her a kiss on the cheek and put a blanket over her. sweet dreamer dear.

Madeline looked at herself in the mirror.
"Riley, do you think our friends will tease me about my hair?" Madeline asked her sister.
"You won't have to worry about that sis if anyone makes fun of your hair, they're going to have to deal with me first." Riley said.
Madeline laughed and smiled.
The whole family started to laugh and they sat down to lunch.
