The Parent Trap

Mama Vs. Witch

   Alfred and Matthew's eyes were wide. Standing there was their mama, Bella Oxsterina and she was giving the witch a glare. She pushed the boys behind her and she cracked his knuckles.

  "You wouldn't hurt me...Allie.."

  That's when Bella hit her. Unknown to most Bella was into boxing and had beaten a few boys in her college years. So, when she hit the girl fell to the ground.

   "I don't care how you feel Allie, I do care though that ya threatened my barns."

  The French woman growled and then threw dirt at Bella. Bella flinched and that's when the witch tackled her. The started to roll around the ground, fists and nails scratching and tearing skin and clothes.

  "Lads...blood hell what's going on!?" Alistair shouted when he saw the two women.

  Genevieve moved out of Bella's grip and ran to Alistair. The boys took note that she had broken nails and scratches on her face. Bella panted and got up also, her glasses in her hands.

  "Allie, she came here and threatened to take the boys away, I tried to stop...."

   "Papa, she said that we were going to private school." Matthew started.

  "And that she was going to take care of Mama." Alfred replied.

  "She told them that Allie..."

  Alistair looked at Bella, the blond replied with her own stare. They last like that for a few minutes, Bella then took a breath.

  "Alistair...."

  "Are you that lonely?"

  The boys' mouths went wide, Bella felt her heart break again. She sighed and then took a breath and gave a glare to the witch. She then looked at the boys and gave them a half smile.

  "Well let's go boys."

  "What?"

  "You can call the police, but I will not let my boys stay another minute with this witch." Bella replied her voice strained.

  Alfred and Matthew took her hand, as the started to leave Matthew looked at his papa and the witch. He shook his head and walked to his mama back to the house. Leaving his papa and the witch alone, hoping that his papa would see the truth.

  "Your leaving...." Arthur stated with a frown.

  "Have ta, I know Alistair won't press charges, but I won't stay here." Bella wrote.

  "Mama..." Matthew started.

  She looked at her son and gave him a sad smile and hugged him. He held her tightly tears going down cheeks. Bella pulled away and wiped away his tears. Then she looked at Arthur and he nodded reading her mind.

  "I will look after him, and if it comes it I will take charge of him. I will have a judge give me rights, I will not have him in danger from that woman."

  "Why didn't our plan work? Doesn't papa love mama?" Alfred asked with a pout.

  "Lad, I truly believe that your father wants the best for you all, and he thinks that...."

  "I don't want that woman as my mama, or step mama." Matthew stated with cry.

  "Mathew...."

  "I want to stay with mama." Matthew stated pulling Bella close.

  "Matthew...."

  Bella kissed his head and stood up and looked at Arthur. He nodded and took the boy, as Bella took Alfred. Arthur watched as the two of the left Matthew crying in his arms. He prayed that all of this would work out. That he is his brother would find his way from the darkness.

   Alistair came back to find that Bella left taking Alfred and Ludwig. He then found a stone face Arthur who yelled at Genevieve to leave. He was going to stop his brother but he was hit with a pile of papers.

  "Alistair look at these reports and you'll see why Bella came to get the boys. Also I warn you if you don't believe what you read I will take Matthew and we'll move where his mother and brother can visit them."

  A few hours later he regretted everything he said to Belle. He had said something that he shouldn't of, and she was just protecting her children. Something that he failed, he watched as woman that he was going to marry taken away by police. She had been wanted for embezzlement and suspicion of murder.

  He then walked up to his son's room. He was greeted by the bear that he bought the child thrown to the floor. Pictures of their trips and horse back riding were flipped over, but what hit Alistair hard was the tear stains he saw on the face of the child he raised.

  "My little lad...what have I done?" he asked himself.

  Then looked up and then at the boy sleeping again. He touched his face and I took a breath and smiled.

  "I promise, I will make things better."

(A year later)

   "Hang on lads..."

  "Papa, we need to get there, mamma might need a hero."

  "Yeah."

  "Boys...she has been through this before..." their papa told the boys, but the said children kept running to the hospital.

  Alistair rolled his eyes and thought for the umpteenth time that they took after their Nordic roots then his. Yet if anyone else would look at the three he was the one that was going as fast as he can to get into the white building.

  A year had passed since the events that led up to this day. Alistair had found Bella and Alfred and pleaded for forgiveness. She had forgiven him, but it took a few months, after that the two fell in love again. They married and then Bella became pregnant again.

  "Bella Kirkland..."

  "Room 305, she's fine and so are your sons."

  "Sons?"

  "Brothers?" the two boys stated their eyes wide.

  "Yes, come with me." the Nurse said as they walked to Bella's room.

  Alistair opened the door and his eyes went to his wife, and in her arms, were two little bundles. Alfred rushed in, and his hands gripped the bed, Bella quickly kissed his head and smiled at him. One of the bundles groaned.

  Alistair walked over holding Matthew's hand, he smiled as his wife smiled at him. Then she then she gave one bundle to Alistair. It contained a baby with strawberry blond hair and Alistair's eyes.

  "That's our youngest Bern."

  Then the other bundle moved and showed a red head with bright blue eyes. Alfred eyes went wide seeing the babe.

  "This is Scott."

  "Bern and Scott." Alfred stated watching the two babies.

  "Yes, their your little brothers."

  "They're cute." Matthew stated.

  "Yes, but yer cute too Matthew, all four of my sons are." Bella replied and kissed his and Alfred's head.

  "Mama." They both said with a smile and blush.

  Alistair just smiled, his thoughts turned back how all this started. How his boys switched and brought them back to each other. He then looked at Bern and then took a breath.

  "At least this set won't be able to switch."
