Mandy Beach, Timber
Jake Alcher lead a fairly normal life, all things considered. At least, that's what he made people think. Then, one warm March afternoon, the very first day of spring, his deepest, darkest secret showed up at the front porch of his beach house. Actually, when he opened the door that day to see his brother Leon, he didn't think it was very unusual. That was when he noticed that Leon was holding two babies in his arms. One was sleeping peacefully, while the other was screaming and crying. Jake would've slammed the door if he wasn't in shock. "Hello, bro!" Leon said, sounding too cheerful. "These two..They're..They're mine, aren't they?" Leon nodded grimly. Jake shuddered. He didn't want to make it known, but he was just after going through a rather messy divorce to end an even messier marriage (if it could even be called that) with a sorceress named Auroria. "I couldn't stand to leave tham with that madwoman, even though they're only a few hours old. I didn't want her to use them..So I brought 'em here." Abruptly the crying stopped. The child had become occupied with a partially untied ribbon that was drooping in front of her face, and was now making a noise that sounded like a Moomba kit's content whimper. "Did she name them?" "Nah. When I got there, Auroria was asleep. so I snapped an Odine bangle on her, and took off with the kids." "Leo, you're really stupid at times." "Yeah, I know. But I was thinking for the kids, okay? So, what're you naming your daughters?" With that, the screamer looked at Jake with her huge brown Alcher eyes. Jake smiled somewhat proudly. "I think I'll call this one Yolei. And I'll call sleepyhead here Christina." Jake smiled a contageous smile. "But hey, Leo..I'll need some help raising these kids so.." Apparently Leon saw this coming. "Sure, I'll stay & help ya raise 'em! If that's what ya want.." "Of course! You can handle Christy." "But.. That's no fun! All she does is sleep!" As if on cue, the little brunette's eyes sprung open, and both girls began to giggle. Jake and Leon sighed. "Raising those two is gonna be a blast, huh Leo?" "Yeah, it sure is!" As the two men took the giggling newborns into the house, they had no idea just how right they were.
