"Do you think they've noticed yet?" Sora whispered over to Roxas as they sat in front of an officer's desk in the small station.
"I doubt it or we'd be in handcuffs," Roxas told him, holding up his wrists as a gesture to show neither had any on.
"Good point," Sora said with a sigh as he leaned his head back, looking up at the ceiling. His head ached a little from the strange smells of the police station. The strange thing was, the station was relatively empty for so late at night. There were only two others in the room with the boys at the time; the man who had brought them in had disappeared off looking for some forms or something.
"I don't think many people get in trouble here," Roxas said looking around. Right about that time the older man who had brought them in appeared from the back room.
"No, of course not, no one stays around here much," the man answered Roxas, seemingly half mindedly as he slapped some of the forms on his desk and sat down. "Now, I'm not going to ask for an explanation, there's never a good one to find two kids in a bar near two in the morning."
"Well, if you're not going to ask us anything, then may we just go then?" Sora asked, somewhat annoyed of still being stuck, but mostly having to sit still.
"No, I said I wasn't going to ask why you two were near the bar, I still need to check if you're runaway's or anything like that. For that, I'll need your names," the man said, watching the two. Roxas and Sora looked over at one another, a smirk coming to their faces though quickly disappearing so the officer never noticed, before they turned back to the officer.
"We're not runaways," Roxas told him simply, an annoyed expression coming to his face though it was an act.
"Then you won't mind giving me your names," the officer persisted.
"Seifer," Sora said with a smile, and Roxas had a hidden smirk.
"Riku," Roxas said raising his hand slightly.
"Last names?" the officer asked.
"Well if we're not being arrested then that isn't exactly needed information now is it?" Sora said as he shifted in the seat a little.
"Yes, but it would be needed to check your background," the officer said, obviously getting somewhat annoyed.
"They are relatively uncommon names, and the truth is we couldn't really tell you our last names," Roxas said, a fake sad face found it's way to him.
"Why not?" the officer asked, and it was starting to get very obvious to Roxas that this guy really didn't have too many criminals to deal with.
"Well…you see sir. We've got no memory at all. We're living with our uncle, right up the road from here, and we heard him say something about our parents being somewhere around here. So we set off to find them!" Sora said his head dropping into his hand to build the drama. "You see, we remember nothing of them. Nothing at all! There are no photos, or anything we have to remember them by. We just had to set off to see if they were here. We looked everywhere, and the only place we hadn't looked was that bar!"
"Really?!" the officer said, his face seeming to give into the drama.
"Yes sir, we're terribly sorry for any trouble we've caused, but we just had to look!" Roxas said, helping his twin out a little. That's about the time when the acting fell apart…and not the twins. The officer broke out laughing.
"You know, you two are some of the best I've seen come through in a while," he said after he could catch his breath, "Now seriously, your names."
"What makes you think we're lying?" Sora asked, his face a mixture of anger and embarrassment.
"Look, I used to pull an old gag like that over on authority figures when I was a kid too. It always worked well until my parents found out," the officer said leaning back in his chair.
"Who do you think you are mister…uh," Roxas looked at the desk for a nametag but didn't find one.
"Strife," the officer said with a short laugh. This caused both boys to go completely silent. "My name's officer Denzel Strife."

Emma: Sorry it's short!!
Erin: It's all we could get done, and plus it's a great cliff hanger.
Kidd: Yeah…one that was kind of expected, nice guessing by the bye! I shall not reveal the name of who did guess, but you know who you are! –cough- lebrezie –cough-
Erin: So anyway, this story is close to an end.
Emma: Though you all might not realize it. There still is a good bit of drama though, or at least I think so.
Kidd: Yeah, so we're going to go start on a new update REALLY quick, we might even get it up within the same hour, since we've pretty much planned this out by now.
Emma: Yeah…through history class…and that was a great lesson on the French revolution….
Erin: I swear I'm not your twin. Anyway, later!
