Alva was having trouble persuading Aveline to go out of her room, partially because Aveline thought her sister no longer trusted her. Rhys on the other hand would go in and out occasionally but would close the door every time he did it.
"Rhys. Wanna watch movies with us?" Eamon asked his younger brother who shook his head and went back to his and Aveline's shared bedroom.
"What's up with him?" Quinn asked confused as the twins finally turned of the TV to see what was going on. They walked into the younger sibling's room and saw Aveline huddled up in the corner while Rhys was comforting her.
"Rhys. What happened?" Eamon asked as Rhys looked at them.
"The robots are coming." He answered simply causing the twins to emit in laughter.
"Alva's right, maybe we should lay low on the action movies for a while." Quinn stated as Eamon nodded.
"You don't believe either. Do you..." Rhys whispered as the twins looked at him worriedly.
"Rhys. There's no such thing as robots. At least not for another 100 years!" Eamon explained
"Or maybe more than that." Quinn continued as Rhys just looked at his brothers before going back to tending Aveline, who was still crying. The twins were about to speak when the door to the apartment opened.
"What happened?" They heard Alva's voice asked as the twins walked out, bringing Rhys and a very reluctant Aveline out of their room, in their arms.
"What happened to what?" Quinn asked Fleur worriedly as Lars quickly took Aveline from Quinn's hold and started whispering sweet things to her.
"The case. Today. What happened to Aveline?" Fleur asked as she looked at her youngest sibling who were crying her eyes out.
"Rhys and her thinks that robots are coming." Eamon joked as Fleur's expression quickly became serious.
"What?" Quinn asked confused as Lars stood up and towered over the twins.
"Well, there might be a probability that robots actually invade." Fleur whispered meekly as everyone except Lars and Aveline turned to her in shock.
"You're joking. Right?" Alva asked shocked and confused as she stood next to Lars, now regretting to whatever she said to Aveline.
"When am I ever joking?" Fleur asked strictly as everyone started thinking about it but they couldn't recall any memories.
"Show us." The twins ordered as Fleur put her bag on the kitchen counter and took out the case file she put the drawing in. She then proceeded on opening the file and taking out the drawing, laying it on the counter neatly before putting everything back into her bag.
"This is it?" Eamon asked as Fleur nodded
"We're suppose to believe what the old man said? What if he's lying?!" Quinn asked angrily as Lars glared at the twins menacingly. They seem to notice and backed off slightly.
"He's not." Alva said simply
"How would you know, you weren't even there." Eamon asked confused as Alva went into the youngest's siblings' room before returning back to them with a piece of paper in her hand.
"What's that?" Quinn asked as Alva gave it to Fleur who's eyes widened in fear. The twins proceeded on standing behind floor, tiptoeing so that they could see the drawing. It turned out to be the exact replica of the one the old man drew. Except the old man drew them with pen while Aveline drew it with pencil.
"Avie did this?" Eamon asked as he looked at a sad Aveline before returning back his attention to the drawing.
"This doesn't make any sense." Quinn stated rubbing his head in frustration.
