A/N the twins are 7 in this because I want them to be kids... so ye Alan is 6.

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!? ALAN COULD HAVE DIED YOU IDIOTS!" Scott was pissed but it wasn't their fault! The twins didn't grease the stairs! It was Alan who greased them and then tried to walk down the side! "SCOTT! We didn't do it, Alan did! He thought he could walk down without slipping!" Georgia nodded rapidly in agreement with Gordon, Virgil glared at them "WHY THE HELL would Alan walk down stairs he Just greased? You dumbasses can't even get a good excuse!" Gordon and Georgia had to admit this didn't sound legit, but it was the TRUTH! "I swear it wasn't us it was Alan!" The twins were on the verge of tears. John just scoffed "unbelievable! Even when Alan is in a hospital bed you still blame things on him! All the time he says he played a prank even though we know it was you who did it because your the family's biggest disappointment, dad should have sent you to the adoption center when he had a chance!" The others in the room nodded in agreement. Alan always admitted when he played a prank, to make sure the twins weren't blamed. But nobody believed him and just blamed it on the twins.

That was it. 

The twins both started crying and ran off.

What's worse is the others were so angry they didn't care, they just let the twins go without a shred of guilt, all to focused on Alan.

Penelope Craighten-ward was sitting in her lounge, drinking her tea when she heard her vid phone ring, it was from Tracy mansion. When she answered she saw 2 hysterical 7 year old twins, (admittedly her favourite Tracy's) she was very concerned, and immediately felt sad as well, the twins were like that, their emotions were contagious, their laugh, their smile

Their sadness.

"Oh my gosh, what's wrong darlings!" Gordon sniffled "w-we were p-pl-playing in the d-den and sc-scotty, dragged us to the-the infirmary coz Alan had f-fallen down the stairs- a-and th-then he t-told is a-llie was there cepose- we greased the stairs, b-but we didn't Alan d-did and tried to walk down the side cept he sl-slipped" Georgia nodded "then john said he wanted us to be sent to an doption c-center coz were dis-disappointments- a-and sc-Scott said we're I-idiots and Virg s-said we're dumbasses and co-couldn't e-ven come u-up with a descent e-excuse" Penelope was furious, so was parker who had been listening from the side, even if he wouldn't admit it, the twins were his favourite Tracys "oh dear that is simply unacceptable, Parker, bring the car around and set a course for Kansas, we're going to pick them up and take them to California" Parker nodded "right h'away m'lady" Parker ran off and Penelope turned to the screen again, "you two go pack a bag with a few sets of clothes and shoes and some toys ok?" The twins nodded "thank you penny" they said in unison, still slightly sad though, penny smiled and said goodbye before she hung up.

This wasn't just a one time thing, the twins get blamed for everything, penny had talked to grandma about it and said that next time they said that sort of thing to the twins, she would take them to California and see how they like it without the little balls of light and humor, to teach them a lesson, and if they still didn't see, she would just look after the twins until the Tracy's came to their senses. She wasn't kidnapping the twins, she had grandma Tracy's permission so she could teach everyone a lesson and make the twins happier.

It took parker and Penelope around 7 hours to get from London to Kansas, Grandma had helped the twins pack their bags a little bit, everyone else just ignored the twins and waited for Alan to wake up. At 7:45pm Parker pulled up at the top of the drive way, grandma said goodbye to the twins and gave them a hug and a kiss, promising to keep in touch. She made sure they were wearing something warm for the start, and they each had a backpack of clothes anyway.
