Sorry for the long waiting time, but I've been busy. I've just moved to a new city and just started a new school so it may take some time between each update. At least until I've established a good routine in school work and other things.

Thanks for the reviews and keep sending them. I'll take anything. ANYTHING!

Chapter four: Breaking out

The twins looked at the food and then each other before making retching sounds in their throats.

"If this is what they'll expect us to eat then I'd rather volunteer to one of Mr. Raines' projects," Lyle said. "This food is hideous".

"Yeah? Well, eat up because this is the only food we've got," Miss Parker snidely said (I think she has PMS;-) and threw hers away.

"Be nice," he said. "We hardly have the time to argue now. There has to be a way out of here." "Well we could search but you're too lazy to do that," was the answer he got.

Quietly he started checking the apartments corners and window but to no avail, the room was sealed tight.

Suddenly the cell phone rang. "Hello?" Parker said harshly. "Hello to you too," said the caller. "Sidney," the relief was evident in her voice. "Have you found anything?"

"Not much but we may have found a way to get you out. It's risky but if everything goes according to the plan we set up, there shouldn't be a problem," Sidney said.

"Ok, what's the plan," she said putting on the speaker. "There are guards out side your door that changes shift every hour, if we can manage to distract them for five minutes or more Broots will shut off the surveillance cameras and unlock your door"

"Ok, sounds like a simple enough plan," Lyle said into the phone. "It might have been if Mr. Raines hadn't specifically told them to not leave, besides their carrying tranquiliser weapons and they're not afraid to use them," Sydney cautioned.

"What happens afterwards?" Parker asked. "Jarod has a car waiting outside where Broots will take you while I distract the guards."

"What the hell is Jarod doing here!" Lyle exclaimed.

"He's here because I called him and because we need him. Right now Jarod's our only trustable ally," Sydney said. "Fine," Lyle mumbled.

"At five pm, in two hours I'll start the distractions be ready then, we already have a copy of the room key. I'll see you later, bye" "Bye," the twins said in unison.

Ten minutes later Raines entered the room with Willie. "In an hour I want you to be ready to leave. I have an experiment to try."

"And if we don't want to go?" Lyle said defiantly. "He he he, you don't have a choice young man."

Lyle grimaced at the name. Suddenly an idea began to form in his head. Slowly he started walking until he bumped into Willie.

"Hey watch it kid!" Willie growled. "Behave," Raines said. "Be ready at four a clock," and walked out of the apartment.

"Great, what are we going to do now," Parker sighed.

"We're going out of this hellhole," while fanning himself with a door key.

"What the hell… How did you get that?" she asked. "Oh, I just grabbed it from Willies pocket. That guy needs to secure his possessions. I even managed to steal his wallet."

"Good, all we need now is a good distraction to lead the guards away," she said. "Hmmm, I wonder. Will a water balloon distract them enough?" Lyle mused.

"It'll have to. That's the best shot we've got."

Soon they had gathered what they needed and was kind enough to leave a note for Sydney and Broots.

The note said:

Dear Sydney and Broots

Plans have changed. Lyle stole Willies access card and we broke out an hour earlier.

Talk to you guys later

Lyle and Miss Parker

After that things went fast. The water balloon was thrown and chaos ensued. Leaving the building after that was a piece of cake.

When Sydney entered the apartment, he to his horror found the note. Will the city survive two young Parker twins…

To be continued…
