No one's POV:
"Cooper Smith-Yu and Luna Smith-Yu come to the stand, please!" The announcer called. This was it, now it was time, it was time for both Cooper and Luna to tell the grand jury the whole truth about what happened, even though the other children had told the exact same story, it's better to have every child explained everything about what happened.
Dr. Huang's heart started to beat fast, he felt very nervous, his fingers started to twitch nervously, which didn't help at all, the twins, Cooper and Luna gave Dr. Huang, a worried expression, He immediately took control over his emotions and nodded his head to let the twins know that everything was gonna be okay.
Dr. Huang gently placed Luna's toy in her hand, Luna held her toy tightly, then while holding hands, her and Cooper got up, walked over to the stand, and sat down.
Both twins scanned the room, all eyes were on them, it was all up to them, their siblings, the team, and everyone else who was on their side was counting on the twins to make this right.
But this...scary and not good feeling started to rush over them both. Both twins held each other close for comfort and made the feeling go away, but...it didn't work.
"Please state your names," the announcer said.
The twins tried to speak but couldn't. They had no idea why they couldn't say their names. There was a moment of silence and—
"What is your name?" The announcer asked.
Both twins laid eyes on Cassidy, Dakota and Bell, the three of them gave a look saying: "don't you dare tell", the look was very scary towards the twins, they couldn't even cry in front of everyone fearing that the worst can happen.
The twins looked over at their siblings, Everest, Mr. Snickerdoodle, the team, and finally, Dr. Huang, their eyes were saying: "Go on," "please," "you can do this," and "ROWF ROWF!".
Both of the twins' eyes were back on the announcer, Dr. Huang knew that something must be wrong, He was praying that the twins could say their names. He was staring into their eyes, begging for them to say something.
Judge Delilah Washington looked over at the twins with a worried expression.
"Can You tell us your names, the both of you?" Judge Delilah Washington asked gently, but there was only silence, the twins didn't say their names, they couldn't do it, they don't know why but they couldn't do it, all eyes were on them, the fear and trauma that they and their siblings went through is too much.
Lawyer Sanchez stood up from His seat.
"Your honor, those two are obviously too young to testify. What a waste of time!" Lawyer Sanchez explained while glaring at the twins.
Judge Delilah Washington let out a sad sigh.
"Unfortunately, I have to agree, though I do not agree with the: "wasting time", these two children are in no state and too young to testify at all," Judge Delilah Washington explained sadly.
Dr. Huang looked down, the twins' eyes widened with fear and sadness, Alexandra then walked over and gave the twins a gentle smile.
