Kidd: Okay, prologue is aside and now the chapters are longer.
Erin: Thank you all for the great reviews.
Emma: We won't take up your time with our useless rambling so here is the new chapter!

Roxas felt the metal of the handcuffs clang around his wrists behind his back.
"What are you talking about, I've never done anything wrong in my life," Roxas told them and then thought for a moment. "Well, I have, but not bad enough as to get arrested," he added.
"Well see about that," one of the officers said as they drug Roxas out of the school. Roxas had a feeling that he was one of those officers who was more into acting like the police on TV then actually being a good officer. While Roxas was going to the police car a couple of people passing by stopped to watch. Roxas ducked as the officer shoved him into the car. He hated the police, he knew it sounded weird but he did. They never brought anything but hurt and confusion to his life. They hurt more then they helped a kid like him. He looked back out the window to see his group of friends standing there, staring, disbelief covering their faces. Roxas just slammed his head back against the seat. This was going to be one confusing summer, he could feel it already.

Namine watched as the car which held Roxas drove past the gates and on to the main road, out of sight.
"What just happened here," Demyx asked confusion in his voice.
"I think that Roxas just got arrested," Axel said.
"What did he do," Larxene asked.
"I'm not sure, but I know who we can ask to figure out," Namine said and they all took off running in the direction of the office.
"Mr. Ansem, what happened with Roxas," Namine asked and noticed that he jumped back a little from the group of teenagers just running into his office.
"He was taken to the police for some questioning," Ansem told them as he started to look over some papers.
"Police don't handcuff teenagers just to take them in for questioning," Axel told him and Namine was a little worried he knew so much on the subject. Namine and Axel had become close, as cousins of course, and were now a little more like brother and sister, though both total opposites. Ansem sighed and looked at the group of teens.
"I suppose you all have a right to know since you are Roxas' friends and have demonstrated that you won't be separated. You cannot tell anyone else of this though, do you understand me," Ansem told them and they each nodded. "Okay, Roxas was taken on the charges of being involved in a murder." Namine felt her breath leave and she couldn't catch it again.
"What if it was when we disused him as Sora Iku, what if they're just confused," Zexion pointed out.
"I'm afraid that's impossible. Roxas' cousin, a boy name Sora Iku, was taken into custody on those charges as well," Ansem told them and they looked at each other.
"Roxas isn't a murderer," Demyx said.
"I know, but there would have to be some evidence that he was involved or the police wouldn't have arrested him," Ansem told them. "Now I suggest that you all go and get some sleep and not worry over this any more. We will do what we can to get Roxas out of jail," Ansem added and they nodded and left.
"How am I supposed to sleep knowing that Roxas is in jail," Namine thought out loud.
"They can't keep him for too long without a trail," Zexion told her.
"But trails take forever," Axel told them.
"How do you know so much," Namine asked.
"My dad, and a couple of firework incidents," Axel said with an evil smirk.
"Okay, so how about we all go to the Koki's tomorrow, they're bound have heard more then we have already," Larxene told them.
"But we're supposed to go home tomorrow, remember," Marluxia told them.
"I think I can get us out of that," Axel told them. They all went to the beach were they wouldn't be heard and Axel started telling them his plan. They would tell their parents that they were going to a camp, Demyx wanted it to be called Camp Water Way, and they would all secretly figure out how to clear Roxas' name.
"This is like a detective movie," Demyx said excitedly as he started to jump around.
"We can't, our mom is sending us back to Camp Happy Time," Zexion said as he cringed a little at the name. I saw Demyx move a little farther away as Zexion started to glare at him.
"Are you allowed to have laptops," Namine asked.
"Yeah, why," Marluxia asked.
"Well, what if you just helped us from there, look up old news archives and things," Namine suggested.\
"Sure, we can do that," Marluxia told them. With that, they all split and went to their beds for the night.

Roxas paced around the room. He didn't have his iPod to listen to; he didn't have anything to do. He was stuck in the strange gray room that had a two way mirror. He knew the people were watching him, he could feel it. Suddenly, the door open and Roxas recognized the boy who was shoved in. It was his cousin, Sora. They were both dressed in the same thing, which they found odd. Both were wearing a jet black hoodie with old, baggy blue jeans and black work boots. The only thing that made the two look different was their hair color.
"Both of you sit down," said an officer who followed. Roxas and Sora took a seat by one another, where they were looking into the two way mirror, and the officer sat across the table from them.
"What's all this about," Sora snapped.
"We found both of your prints on a weapon that was used to kill a man," the officer told him and Roxas started to lean back in his chair out of boredom, or just to make the officer made, which ever, he found it amusing.
"We haven't even seen each other since we were seven," Roxas told him.
"Now why wouldn't twins see one another for that amount of time," the officer asked.
"Twins," Sora asked.
"We're cousins, I lived with Sora for a while but I got moved to the boarding school when I was nine," Roxas told him. The officer looked down at the papers on his desk for a moment before looking at the two.
"I suppose then you could use a reunion," the man told them as he got up and left the room. Roxas heard the lock click and he knew they weren't going to be very trusting.
"How've you been, Rox," Sora asked not looking over at him.
"Good I guess," Roxas told him and then they looked at one another. Roxas was already beginning to formulate a plan in his head. Roxas was sure he could tell Sora without the people knowing what he was talking about; they had had a knack for that when they had been younger.
"Where did they drag you from," Roxas asked him.
"A reform school in Hollow Bastion," Sora told him with a laugh.
"You're still getting into trouble," Roxas asked.
"Sure, but its not as much fun without a partner," Sora told him. They both stopped talking when the door flew open and the same tall man walked in.
"We doubled checked it, your records state that you two are twins. That's lie number one," the man told them and Roxas rolled his eyes. This guy just wasn't going to get it, was he?
"Fine, you caught us," Sora told him and Roxas kept his face blank like Sora's though he was wondering what Sora was up to.
"You both have a good size criminal past too," the man said and Roxas sighed.
"Those were little things. I mean, come on, it was an accident and I bet that officer doesn't even remember us," Roxas told him laughing a little. The man got a weird look in his eye and he pulled up his sleeve to show a thin white scar on his arm.
"Just great," Sora said as he leaned back.
"Hey, nice to see you again, sorry about the whole baseball thing," Roxas told him with a weak laugh. The man just looked furious for a moment before someone spoke over his radio.
"I'll be there in a second," the man said angrily and he got up and walked out of the room again.
"You had to bring up the time you hit that police car with the baseball," Sora told his cousin with a laugh.
"Well how was I supposed to know that it was the same guy," Roxas whined. Right about that time the door opened again to show Troy standing in the doorway.
"You're father is here, boys," the man told them.
"Boys," Troy asked.
"Yeah, me and Sora, remember dad," Roxas told him with a pleading look in his eye that he hoped that Troy would read.
"Oh yes, right, my mind went blank there for a second," Troy told the man with a laugh and the officer looked at the strangely but seemed to shrug it off.
"We'll be placing you boys under house arrest until we can sort some more things out," the man told them as two other people walked in. They placed two monitors on the boys' ankles. They walked out into the lobby to find the rest of Roxas' adopted family, waiting.
"I've got the boys honey," Troy told Rachel as they walked out. Rachel got a confused look but the officers didn't seem to catch it.
"Cool, what's that," Kenny asked as the three boys looked at the monitor on Roxas' leg.
"An officer will follow you home and set up the monitoring device. Once it's done then the boys won't be able to go over one hundred feet from the device," the officer instructed. Soon, the Koki's all climbed into the large van and began home with the officer following.
"Okay, last time I checked, we only had one teenaged son," Rachel said as they were on their way home.
"He's my cousin Sora. They started claiming we were twins so we just went along with it. If we would have gone home with different parents, it would have thrown a little dent in that story," Roxas told her.
"You have a lot of explaining to do when we get home young man," Rachel told him and, although he knew he was in trouble, he couldn't help but smile from the statement.
"Since when did you have parents," Sora whispered.
"Since the beginning of the school year," Roxas whispered back.
"Uh…since you're Roxas' cousin, are you our cousin too," Gage asked.
"I guess, I don't know," Sora told him. With that, they continued down the road, not knowing what was in the future.

A/N: Hey, it's just Kidd at the moment. Erin and Emma are helping Kenny clean up a little mess at the moment. I don't know what all happened but it involved our chickens, our dog, a carton of eggs, and some orange juice. If you can figure out what happened by guessing then you will get a gold star! Anyway, please review!
