~The Year 1946- The war is over but not all is well

-how the hell did we end up like this,

Why weren`t we able

To see the signs that we missed…

"John…do you think we`ll ever ba able to get away from here? You know; escape, get far, far away?"

The girl tilted her head sideways to look at her companion; her curled bronze locks shimmered dully in the sunlight.

"I…I would like to one day. It would be nice to know what`s out there." He smiled as she leant against his chest. Both were lying in the near deserted field his father owned; watching the clouds crawl by.

"John…will you promise me, no matter what…t…that we`ll get away from here. Just you and me"

"Well…of course? Why is there something wrong?"

"…John…john there is nothing the matter" she finished looking back up at the sky. Suddenly, the sky didn`t seem that bright.

-The year 1952- Christmas –

"T…Teresa, wh…why didn`t you say" His fist clenched

"I…I was afraid of your thoughts, that…that you would leave me here, all alone. " The girl; no Mother looked down; hiding her sky dark eyes downwards, afraid of the coming storm. But none came. A hand lifted her chin gently; tilting it upwards. A butterfly kisses on the forehead.

"Teresa. I would never leave you. Nothing on this earth could tear me from you."

"Thank you John…and happy birthday"

"And the best one so far" He smiled as her face washed of fear or concern.

-9 months later

"J…John I don`t think im going to...m...make it" her teeth were clenched shut, her small face a picture of discomfort and pain. John held her small wrist, both knuckles white with strain and worry.

"No Teresa. You're going to be fine. You know you are."

"Im afraid we're going to have to ask you to leave sir"

I won't leave her…I won't!"

"John!"

-1 month later

"T…Tell him I'm sorry. I…I just have to finish something first. And thank you nurse…Thank you for making me realise."

"Well you know what you have to do miss. Next time, make sure the government aren`t there to take the children" The guilt flared behind the girls face for a moment before turning back to stone.

"I promise. A...as long as you take both children back to their father" And with a nod from the elderly nurse the woman protected by a withered shawl kneeled to kiss her two sons on the fore head.

Both children moved at the moment; yet neither made a sound of waking.

The nurse turned to open the door. O how she didn`t trust that women, she knew no good would come of her. But there was no choice.

"Goodbye boys, I will be back soon but for now, We`re all going to have to split our ways. Look after your father and I'll be back as soon as I can." Finally she broke a locket from her neck, the baby`s eyes opened. Crystal blue twins snapped open and watched their mother as she snapped the locket in half; stuffing a locket side into the safety of each basket, next to the children. The women's eyes moistened as she fought to keep her calm. She was letting go of her babies; leaving them alone in this cruel world. Smothering a sob she ran out as twin cries of fear and want started, they followed the young women into the rain drenched night yet the stars still shone above...

She sneaked a glimpse back and saw a tuft of hair and blue eyes watching her before the door slammed shut.

"Soon…I promise you" And she started her new life into the murky town that was Destiny Islands…

-"Jonathan Riku Hikari"

"Y…yes?"

"This be your child. Ye wife left no name said she knew you would know what she wanted him to be called."

John looked down at the shivering bundle of clothes. A tuft of cinnamon hair stuck out awkwardly and a small red nose flared against the warm colour of it`s skin. The baby`s face was screwed up in a sultry pout and it had started to wriggle. Probably the cold john thought to himself.

"Oh Teresa what have you done" He sighed to himself

"If that`l be all"

"Yes goodnight Cid" The man grinned eager to be off.

"Goodnight Riku Hikari"

The man lumbered of into the frozen night. John held back the urge to cry as the child`s eyes opened and landed upon him. God he had never felt so unsure in his life.

They stared at each other for a while, drinking in each other`s appearance. Then John looked up, towards the sky and watched as his breath ghosted out into the night sky, the stars seemed to gleam like hidden diamonds. O the wonders the sky can behold.

Sky.

John looked back down at the burbling child. Lifting him up and out of the basket; still wrapped in blankets he brought him to his side and held his small hand. The child seemed to understand that crying wasn`t aloud right then and looked back at the aqua eyes that bore into his.

"Sora. You have your mothers eye`s. heh Welcome home sky" He finished with smile as the baby giggled and gripped his right hand. He stepped up the rickety steps, not looking back at the shut door with the basket in front. A shine of silver glinted of the walls and hanging over the side, near forgotten was the locket. They`re mother's locket.

John turned as he felt the baby reaching over his shoulder; catching site of the necklace that sat limply by it`s side. At closer inspection it was Teresa`s…but it was only half.

-Roxas_

"Huff...huff….huff!" The cold air nipped at the child and the nurse. Why was she doing this, she thought it was right. The council would just hound her husband if he kept them both. She wasn`t evil…no, no she was great, a saviour.

Smiling with more confidence the withered woman struggled on. She missed the look of misery that the child gave her instead power walking towards the great doors of "Oblivion Boarding school". The writing looked as dark as the house, with its twisting spires and blackened walls with cracked or darkened windows it truly looked like a torturers home not a boys school.

"Look child, this is to be your home. Your new and safe home" The women nodded, still not looking at the child. The baby gave out an indignant squeal and started sucking on its small hand oblivious to its horrible surroundings. The movement came to a stop and the inspection began.

It`s blonde hair brushed to a quirky side. The crystal blue gaze held that of the man`s as he picked the small child up and looked at him carefully, like some sort of merchandise. The child started bawling as he was handed over to a matron.

"Yes he`ll do, thank you for your services." The man nodded sternly, not a smile of gratitude lifted his pale lips.

-Clink clink-

"O thank you sire…thank you." The woman chuckled counting the golden circles.

"And the child`s name…"

"Oh...OH she never said. The other boy though is called Sora" He nodded…happy

"Roxas then...Just Remember. The other must never know"

"Yes sire Reno. Never… Never know…"

No one noticed the locket entwined in the boys hand.

The basket was later put into his shared room and…

Thus the story of the twins, separated at birth only to find each other by a link of chain-
