Ruby POV
After what felt like forever we finally went back to our hotel when I exclaimed, "Meet us at the beach again we'll message you when we are ready." After putting my phone away from talking to Collins and Devan I begin to pack but I couldn't help but think about our brothers and new family, but who were the people who took us? I thought. Suddenly I heard a scream, I turn around and see Emily with our 'Mum and Dad' "Leave us alone! We have our proper family back. Who are you anyway?!" I yell.
"I am Emma your Auntie and that's Mark your Uncle," she yelled back in my face.
"Why did you kidnap us at such a young age?!"
"Because we wanted children and plus we wanted to see your family suffer. For years they have always been happier than us so it's time for them to pay."

I kept thinking on what that could mean when Emma held a knife to my sister! "Leave her alone please!" I began cry. I ran into another room to call Collins.
Ruby: Collins come to our hotel quick Emma has Emily and she's going to kill her!
Collins: Who's Emma?
Ruby: Emma is apparently our Auntie but forget about her Emily could die in a minute!
Collins: We're on our way!
Ruby: See you soon be quick!
End

I ran out of the room to see Emma struggling in her grip when I get a message come through
Collins: Open the door

I open the door and see Collins and Devan staring at the scene in disbelief "Auntie? Uncle?" Collins asks stuttering. Emma and Mark release Ruby as she falls to the floor, I run over to her and help her up as she clings onto me.
"Collins I...," Emma splutters frantically.
"Save the excuses your not getting out of this one, we witnessed u hurting our sister... I never want to see you again," he exclaimed. He walked over to us and helped Ruby up while Devan helped me. They grabbed our bags and returned the key to our room at the front desk of the hotel and off we walked back to the Key house.

Devan POV
I watched as Ruby walked back to our house, she hasn't spoken a word. Collins opened the door and she dragged herself inside before walking over to the couch and lying down, I tell Mom and Dad about what's been happening which caused Mum to drop some plates and Ruby to jump out of her seat.

I watched as Emily ran to comfort her when she had tears streaming down her face, I ran over to help comfort Ruby when Collins, Mom and Dad joined us. Collins held Ruby's hand stroking the back of it to comfort her. "Ruby, Emily tell us everything that happened from when you were in England to now," Mom kindly spoke to the whimpering girl. I watched Ruby start to shake when she started to speak, "I remember it all so clearly... Emma and Mark they opened our bedroom window and I heard a sudden noise. Before I knew it, I was being lifted out of my bed, but I knew something wasn't right. I grabbed my key necklace and placed it round my neck that way if they took it off me and threw it down or I dropped it people would know who I was and could tell Anne and Steve.... I mean Mom and Dad."
"Anyway from there we were carried down individually to where Mark was and we were placed in the car with tape round our mouth. I can't remember much about the car journey but I just know getting on the plane and off we were to England," Emily exclaimed trying to sound as smart at her sister.

Ruby hugged her and mumbled something. "Tell them," Emily whispered. Ruby faced us again and her face had drained of any color, "I heard her talking on the phone, she said she hated and never wanted to see u guys again. I knew the names seemed familiar when she mentioned them they were your names. I mentioned you guys once and she hit me for it and told me to forget them names otherwise I would be dead.. Every day she threatened me and if I was to mention you again or call the police then I would pay for it. When we finally grew up, we noticed that when you were on the news Mum and Dad would always ignore it. We listened to your exclusive interview and they went out, we got something in the mail saying that we were going to the same college to pursue our sports careers and my music career. That's why we came to California and our so called, 'parents' weren't going to let us until I had a go at her telling her that I was going to California no matter what happened to me," she exclaimed.

After listening to that story I began to sob, Collins eyes were tearing up when there was a knock on the door, Ruby jumped out of her chair as I put my hand on the door handle. I frantically pulled it open to be met with The Merrell Twins "Hey Devan we heard you found your long lost sisters can we meet them?" Nessa asked. I saw Emily nod so I led them towards my sisters when they stood up and waved "hi I'm Emily and that's Ruby my twin sister" Emily kindly spoke to the Merrell Twins.
"Hi guys we're Veronica and Vanessa Merrell but for short people call us Roni and Nessa" they said in sync causing Emily to laugh a bit.

After a while I could tell that Ruby was uncomfortable as her crystal blue eyes had begun to loose their Color when she ran out of the room and upstairs "is she okay?" Roni asked sweetly. I nodded my head before replying
"Yeah she's just really nervous, Emily will you please check on her I don't want her to be upset" I ask her. Emily nods her head and runs up the stairs to comfort her twin sister and my sister.

Ruby POV
I lay on my bed looking up at mine and Emily's room when I grabbed a pencil from my bedside table and began to draw on our empty walls, after I drew Emily I heard a knock on the door "Ruby it's me Emily can I come in? It is our room after all" she yelled.
I cautiously edge towards the door when I grip the door handle and pull the door towards me to be met with my sister "Ruby what's going on? Since you've been here you haven't been yourself? Is that incident bothering you?" My sister bombarded. I give her a look to say 'I'm fine' when I grab my flute and walk downstairs with Em, I ask Mum and Dad if it was okay for me to sit outside when they nodded their head. I opened the door to the outside when I began to warm my flute up "you want to practice our song?" I ask. I see Emily's face light up when she replied "why don't we show it to Mom, Dad, Collins and Devan after all it is for them" After arguing for five minutes I gave in and accepted the fact that she wasn't going to give up until I told her it was okay.

She ran into the house and before I knew it seconds later I saw everyone looking at me "you ready?" She asked me. I nod my head and began to play our song, as I blew into my flute memories came flooding back, I remember playing this song  to Emma and Mark. Tears began to form into my eyes when I heard clapping, I lift my head up to see my brothers faces in shock when the tears start to drip down my face when I was suddenly engulfed in a hug, this is what it feels like to finally have my family back.
