Ok, so on the last chapter, the guys had just found out about Renée and Kansas. Now they want an explanation. Warning, lots of flashbacks

Chapter 23 Opening Up

"Alright, I think it's time I should tell you guys," Kansas said. The guys gave their attention to Kansas as she began her story.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback

"I can't believe they did that to us," Rita said as she drove down the street. "Forget them, we have other problems to worry about. I mean, those policemen found us and now we're on the run again," Michelle said. "We've been running from them for years. How are we gonna outrun them? We can't keep it up for another couple years," Kansas said. Lillyann was sound asleep in Kansas's arms. "I know we can't, but we have to try," Rita said as they continued down the road.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~End Flashback

"We drove out to another town and went into an apartment. After a while I was able to have my operation, but our freedom didn't last long. The police had been after us for years. They knew we were orphans, well most of us that is, and were trying to catch us and put us in a home. Unfortunately, we were found," Kansas said.

"Keep running Kansas," Renée yelled as they ran down the streets followed by sirens of police cars. The other girls had gone into a different direction and escaped. Kansas and Renée continued to run until they reached a dead end. They looked around and found a small hole in one of the corners. Renée grabbed Kansas and shoved her down the hole. "What about you?" Kansas asked. "No time for me. Now, go!" Renée yelled. The sirens became louder until Kansas could see red and blue reflecting off Renée's skin. "I said move it, Kansas!" Renée yelled. Kansas took one last look at Renée before nodding and running down the small tunnel.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~End Flashback

"I could hear Renée being taken away as I continued to run; however, I was caught not long after. The police found out that Renée's father was still alive. What they didn't know was that he got drunk a lot after her mother had died. That's why she left there in the first place. They sent me with her as well. After a while, her father began to beat us. He would use anything he could find that would do us harm," Kansas said. "Didn't you tell someone?" Rowen asked. "We tried, but no one would listen. The police wouldn't listen saying that we were just upset that we were caught. After the girls heard about our problems, they went to the police and turned themselves in. They said they wouldn't run away from any of the foster parents as long as they were close to us. Thankfully, no one knew that Lillyann was my sister," Kansas said. "If they knew that, they'd put her in with her and Renée," Rita said. "So you guys were with us because you knew they wouldn't find you there," Sage said. "That was the main plan, but then we began to like it there. That is, until someone found out about us and told the police," Rita said. "So who do you think did it?" Ryo asked. Kansas and Rita looked at each other before looking at them. "You don't know? We thought you did it," Rita said. "No, we didn't do it. We didn't even know about you," Sage said. "But then, who found out?" Kansas asked.

Srry, my computer messed up and didn't get all of it, but I retyped it. It's not as good as the last ending but this is all I can remember.
