Kidd: Well, only one person guessed to the Kenny mystery.
Erin: It was a good guess too, thank you!
Emma: Though Kenny wanted to see if he could hatch some eggs so he hid some he stole from the chickens in his room.
Erin: He was claiming to be sick the other day and I was bringing him some orange juice when the dog tripped me and it startled him so the eggs he was hiding under his pillow was crushed.
Emma: So we had to clean everything up before one of the adult figures in our house found it and we got grounded from the computer for a week.
Erin: Luckily, we didn't and it was never discovered other then the fact we're telling you guys.
Kidd: But that's why I keep a lock on my side of the computer.
Emma: Any way, enough with this chit chat, they want to read the story now.
Kidd: Okay then, here you go, hope you enjoy!

"You boys can go anywhere in the house and a little ways into the yard. The monitors will turn red when you've gone out of range and you exactly one minute to get back in range or the police will come and arrest you," the officer explained. The two boys nodded from where they were sitting on the couch. "I guess that would be about it then. You all have a good night," he added and then he left. Roxas heard Troy shut the door and he soon came back to the living room.
"You three, bedtime, now," Troy told Freddie, Gage, and Kenny who were spread out on the floor playing a video game.
"Ah, but tomorrow's the last day of school," Freddie whined.
"Do we really have to go," Kenny added.
"Yes," Rachel told them.
"Look at it this way, the last day always has a party," Sora reassured them.
"Yeah, you get a lot of candy," Roxas added and with that the boys shot off in the direction of the basement.
"Rachel, can I talk with you in the den for a moment," Troy asked and she nodded as she got up and headed for the door.
"You two don't move," she told the two. Roxas nodded and they left the room. Right about that time, little Rosie wobbled over and grabbed Roxas' leg as she almost fell. Roxas lifted her up and she stood on the couch between the two boys.
"Woxas no go bye-bye again," Rosie said as she latched onto Roxas' head.
"Roxas isn't going bye-bye for a while now," Sora laughed and Roxas pried his baby sister from his head.
"Doesn't look like you are any time soon either," Roxas reminded him.
"Maybe not, but I don't think I'd mind catching up with my favorite baby cousin," Sora told him as he playfully punched him. The two laughed before looking around a little and the room was filled with silence until Sora spoke, "How did a family like this pick up a delinquent like you," Sora told him with a weak laugh.
"Don't know, kind of just happened. You wouldn't believe what happened this past school year though," Roxas told him and he was ready to tell him about his whole experience in the past school year when Rachel and Troy walked back in.
"Okay, first things first, Sora, who's supposed to be watching you," Rachel asked.
"My mom is away on business and I was supposed to stay at the school until she could pick me up," Sora told them.
"When would that be," Troy asked and Sora sighed.
"She probably isn't even off on a business trip; she probably just wanted to get rid of me. She told me about half way through the break but she usually prolongs it," Sora told them.
"Good, maybe we can get all of this sorted out before then. Now tell us exactly what happened, from the beginning," Troy told them and Roxas did so, explaining what all had happened and all they knew about it. He didn't mention much about the criminal record, he had always hoped that they would never figure out about it.
"We're lucky they didn't call your social worker over this, we could have lost you," Rachel told him and Troy looked to be thinking.
"Seems to me that they supposedly had evidence and I would like to know just what that evidence is," Troy told them.
"That's what we told them, but they didn't listen," Roxas told them.
"Then again, they also said that we were twins and it was on our records and everything," Sora added.
"I'm going to go check on that tomorrow but for now we should all get some sleep. Sora, I'm sorry but we don't have another bed. If you would like, we can get some extras covers and pillows and you can sleep on the couch," Rachel told him.
"Thank you," Sora told her and she then went to get some more covers.
"Are you sleeping downstairs tonight or do you want to sleep on the separate couch," Troy asked Roxas.
"I think I'll sleep on the other couch, thanks," Roxas told him. So they got all the pillows and covers and got situated into the room.
"Now you boys don't stay up all night, okay," Rachel told the two.
"Okay," Roxas told her and she flipped off the light and slid shut the doors that separated the living room from the front room. The two boys listened as the footsteps walked into the hall and disappeared up the stairs to the master bedroom.
"You never told them you don't sleep, have you," Sora asked once they were sure that they were out of earshot.
"Did you ever tell your mom," Roxas asked and Sora laughed a little.
"No," he finally responded.
"See, we still think a like," Roxas told him and then the room was sent into an awkward silence.
"Hey Roxas, where'd you go after mom sent you away," Sora asked and Roxas kept his eyes on the dark ceiling.
"A boarding school that helps orphans," Roxas told him, thinking about the day he had first arrived.
"Hey, you know if I could have I would have stopped my mom," Sora told him.
"Yeah, I know," Roxas told him.
"Hey, do you think there is any way we could be twins," Sora asked, changing the subject.
"I don't know, I mean, I guess it's possible. Then again, why did anyone tell us before now," Roxas told him.
"I don't know, but I say we go and find out," Sora told him in a mischievous tone.
"Are you crazy, we're on house arrest, if we so much as set a foot outside the little invincible fence they've stuck us in, we'll be put in jail," Roxas told him.
"Yeah, so, what if they never know that we leave," Sora told him and Roxas leaned up and looked over at his cousin.
"What are you talking about," Roxas asked and Sora got an evil grin and went into explaining his plan of what they were to do.
-x-x-x-
"Yeah mom, oh yeah, and I forgot, the bus we're suppose to take to us to the Twilight Town station. It was canceled. So, could you pick us up at the Hollow Bastion station at about twelve," Namine asked her mother over the phone. "Yeah, okay sure, see you then, love you, bye," she added as she hung up the phone.
"What did she say," Axel asked.
"She knows that all the camps start two weeks into the summer so we'll have to wait until then. We have a little time to get to the Koki's and talk to them about what happened with Roxas," Namine explained to him and he nodded.
"You're becoming quiet the criminal mastermind," Axel told her.
"It's a gift," Namine told him with a small laugh.
-x-x-x-
Roxas and Sora had lain quietly since they had first heard the footsteps walking through the house. They heard Troy and Rachel talking a little.
"Well we have to contact his mother," Troy told Rachel.
"I don't know Troy, they said that they were twins and records don't lie," Rachel told him.
"If that's so then the woman that raised Sora and for a short time Roxas, could be their mother," Troy told her.
"His file said that he was taken from his mother because she was neglecting him," Rachel told him and Roxas felt a lump come to his throat. She hadn't neglected him; she just couldn't take care of him and watch him at the same time.
"Yes and a man has also come here saying he was Roxas' father but after that one visit we never saw him again," Troy replied and Roxas heard Rachel sigh.
"I just don't know Troy. When we saw his criminal record we promised to just over look it because it was only minor things, but we had to pick him up from the police station on the charge of murder, Troy," Rachel told him. They knew about his record, and they still took it, but it sounded like it wouldn't stay that way.
"He needs us, Rachel, and if they are twins, then both of them do. He may be fifteen but he is still a kid, he still needs parents," Troy told him and Roxas felt some sort of rage form in the pit of his stomach.
"What if he did murder someone, what are we going to do about it," Rachel asked and the rage in Roxas grew. They didn't believe him, over the stupid police who they probably didn't even know. Roxas sat on and pulled on his jeans, white t-shirt, and his boots, not even bothering to tie them.
"What are you doing," Sora whispered as he walked by but he completely ignored him. He slung open the sliding doors which slammed against the walls and revealed a stunned Rachel and Troy. He walked over to the coat rack and grabbed his hoodie.
"Roxas, what do you think you're doing," Troy asked and Roxas turned to stare at them both.
"I didn't do anything, and you can believe that. You can also believe me when I say I don't need anybody, and that even means you," Roxas snapped at them before opening the front door and slamming it shut. He ran off down the street, causing himself to get soaked by the rain that was pouring down at the moment. The alarm on his ankle was going off but he ignored it as he turned into an alley and sat down behind a dumpster. He pulled up his pants leg and grabbed a sharp piece of metal that was sitting by the dumpster that must have broken off sometime okay. He started to saw at the monitors tie until it finally broke. He threw it under the dumpster and turned to run deeper into the alley as he heard the sirens blare behind him.

Kidd: Well, Roxas is now an escaped convict and I guess we've learned a little more about his emotions at this point.
Erin: Poor Roxas feels like he isn't trusted.
Emma: I trust you Roxas.
Kidd: Anyway, sorry it took a while to update.
Erin: There's a story behind it though. All three of us are in the same school, in the same grade and take the same classes.
Emma: It's a small school.
Kidd: Well, the science class we take is good and fun and all, but it is really, really tough.
Erin: All three of us got busted for low grades.
Emma: I had the highest at seventy-five, so I wrote as much as I could.
Kidd: You can tell who the smart one is.
Erin: Anyway, that's why we haven't been on as long, and it might get worse seeing as the yearly test is coming and it's over every single little thing we've learned this year.
Kidd: I'm going to fail just so you know, so I will show up as much as possible.
Emma: I guess you're bored by now, so we'll skip to the well known part of the ending comments.
Erin: Review if you like!
