I leaned towards Damian an whispered to him "I already know but do you know if somehow one of us pissed the cops off in someway." Damian just shrugged. "Is this them?" one of the officers asked looking from us to the principle while pointing at us. "Hasn't your momma every told you that saying pointing is rude?" I asked with sarcasm. "So why are we here for? Besides being pointed at by the cops." Damian looked at the principle. The police officer cleared his throat "I'm not sure how to say this politely but..." he cleared his throat again "I'm sorry but about forty-five minutes ago your parents were killed in a car crash when their car was rammed into by a Tanker Truck (For the readers: A Tanker Truck is a semi-truck that transporrs gasoline) with the driver being intoxicated. At the time the Tanker-Truck rammed into them the truck started to leak gasoline and it caused both the Tanker and your parent's S.U.V. to explode. Neither your parents or the truck driver's were able to survive the explosion we ran your father's license plate then checked his social media noticed that you both were lable his kids we saw you both had social media accounts too and they said you two go to school here." the officer stopped "So you came to tell us what happened to them so we didn't find out the hard way." I said as me and Damian looked down before we took a deep breath and lifted our heads to look at the cop. "Now what?" Damian asked "You gonna force us to go with you so you can put us in the crappy foster system? Damian looked at him with an eyebrow raise "Did you know seventy percent of foster kids get either raped or sexually assaulted?" Damian doing a Damian. When he gets pissed off he shows a blank face and tells some facts involving the topic that is being talked about. "We we're going to take you down to the station to...." I interupted the cop "No. We'll be fine. We have access to the family's bank account. It has our names and our parents names attached to it plus we have full time jobs we go to after school plus school just started today so bye." I said as we turned around left the office just as the bell rang. We went to our lockers to change our books for our next classes. I went into the girl's restroom and like a ninja to the best of my abilities changed out of my gym clothes and back into my regular clothes. Again me and Damian share our next class in third period English class with Ms. Peterson. Usually we're more proactive in our classes but after hearing what the cops just told us we just sat in the back and we each pulled out a book and read them because Ms. Peterson was only doing an English refresh presentation on things we've learned earlier in the school year. Damian pulled his manga he was reading this morning back out and I pulled out Wolf Brother by Michelle Paver. When class was over we went to our fourth period Computers class with our teacher yes ironically our teacher's name is Ms. Webb. We only slightly payed attention enough to learn and not catch Ms. Webb's attention and her thinking we're doing something suspisious. When class was over it was time for lunch and we went to the cafeteria. We grabbed our trays and put stuff on it. When we sat down we ate only bits and pieces of our lunch while we resume reading the books we were reading in Ms. Peterson's class. I didn't look up from my book while I asked Damian "You noticed that the cops followed us to the cafeteria too right?" all Damian responded with was a small nod. "I have a feeling they'll be following us all day." Damian said still not looking up from his book. "I concur. Why do you think they're following us?" I asked turning the page in my book. "Might be because of how quickly we shut them down before they even started. They think we wanted mom and dad dead." I said while still reading my book. "Shall we entertain our new police friends?" Damian asked with a smirk. "Depends what you got in mind for them?" I looked at him intergued about what he had planned. "Follow me my dear twin." Damian said as we put our books in our bags before dumping our trays. We left the cafeteria. We got half way down the hall before we stopped. "You can just stop with this game of cat and mouse. You guys can come out. We know you've been following us." Damian said before we turned around. The police officers came out from around the corner. "So would you morons like to share with the class on why you're following us for?" I looked at them "Are you even real cops because if you were you'd focus on solving how the explosion was ignited or how it started to leak because I doubt the gas line would just happen to start leak out of nowhere... Wow Damian I think we'd be better cops then these two idiots. Do you think that our parents or was the semi-truck driver the target. How about tou two go a find that out or why the gasline of the semi-truck started to leak. Or did you already figure that out? You said it only happened about three hours ago right? Then go solve the case and stop following us like creaps." I said "Buzz off creapers." Damian said waving the cops away before we turned and walked away. We had study hall as our last period so we finished all our homework then. When school was over no surprise the wannabe cops stood out front. We walked passed them and headed to our jobs at the city library. While the cops followed us in their squad car so we stopped and they pulled up beside us. "So would you like to tell us why you're following us to work?" I asked irritated. They just stayed silent. "If you don't stop following us we'll have your badges by the end of the day." I threaten them before we continued our walk to the library. When turned the corner we slid into one of the stores hich was out of their line of sight and waited to see if they were still following us. Sure enough they drove pass the store we were in as we saw them looking around the street for us. So I took a picture of their license plate. I called the local police station. "Boston police station. How can I help you today?" the operator asked. "Yes I would like to report a couple of stalkers that keep following me and my brother." I said "Ok what's your names sweetie?" the operator asked nicely so I told her our information. "Do you know who your stalkers are?" she asked "No I don't personally know them but they're police officers and when I asked why they were following us they wouldn't say anything they would just look at us creapy like and they've been stalkimg us since this morning. I got a picture of their license plate." I said "The officers are following you and not telling you why?" the operator asking for conformation. "Yes that's correct and it's starting to creap me out. Would you like me to give you the license plate?" I asked the operator. "Oh yes ma'am go ahead." after I told her the license plate number she looked it up in the system. "Ok um... if the plate matches correctly this plate doesn't match any police cruiser. So listen closely tell me where you are and I'll send a few police officers that are currently here at the station and we can catch these two ok?" the operator asked "Yeah me and my brother are heading to the Boston Library for our after school job we have." I explain telling her the address. When I hung up me and Damian left the store we were in and headed to the library when we arrived those stalker cops were there but when we got to the library door we turned and watched the wannabe cops in what we were guessing was a missing cruiser. We had twenty minutes until we have to go in for work. Five minutes later two police cruisers pulled up behind the stollen cruiser looked down at the license plate confirming thats the stalker cop's cruiser. All four cops got out of the cruisers and walked to both sides of the stollen cruiser. "BOTH OF YOU OUT OF THE CAR NOW!!" one of the cops demanded as they all pulled their guns out of their holsters. When they had the stalkers cuffed and in seperate cruisers one of the hopefully real cops came up to us. "I'm sorry you two had to go through that. You'll be surprised how easy it is to get a police outfit. It's them getting their hands on the police cruiser that worries me. This is my card if you have anymore problems this is my card and as it says I'm sheriff David Samson. You two stay safe now ok." the sheriff said before he started to walk away "Sir." Damian called out. The sheriff turns around "Yes what's wrong?" I looked towards Damian "Those guys they told us something this morning at school that we hope is a lie but they said our parents died in a collision with a intoxicated Tanker Truck driver causing the deaths of both parties involved after both vehicles exploded. I was hoping you could confirm if its true or if they lied." Damian asked with a serious face. "Son I wished for both of us that it was a lie that your parents were involved but I did report personally to a scene that sounds exactly like that. If it involved your parents I don't know. What are you parent's names?" David asked "Victor and Samantha Black. I'm Damian and this is my twin sister Iris." Damian explained. The sheriff reach for his walkie talkie "This is Sheriff Samson to dispatch. Dispatch comeback over." "This is dispatch sheriff over." "Dispatch have we recieved the names of the people involved in the collision between the Tanker Truck and the S.U.V. accident? Over" "Thats affermative sheriff. Over." "Dispatch can you give me those names please? Over." "Affermative. The ones involved are Felix Thomson in the Tanker Truck and the ones in the S.U.V. are Victor and his wife Samantha Black. Over." after dispatch said mom and dad's names I was on my knees miliseconds later. "Ok thank you dispatch. Over and out." David ran his hand down his face. "Kids I need you to come with me." David said helping me to my feet. I pushed him away "I'm not going." "Neither am I." Damian said backing me up. I wiped my face of tears as we head inside. We wrote on the sign-in sheet for work. Sheriff David followed us into the library. "I have no choice but to take you two down to the station you're minors. You can't live alone." David said "You're right we're minors... for the next month then we'll be eighteen so buzz off." Damian said getting aggrivated. We got to work in the large three story library. I worked on the second and Damian worked on the third floor of the library. After our six hour shift at the library we went home to see what I'm getting tired of seeing. "Why?" I asked whipping my hands out to the police cruiser in front of our house. I went to the driver's side door of the cruiser and knocked on the window. When the window was rolled down I turned on my mini-flashlight hooked to my keys. I final see the driver being non-other then sheriff David. "Can I help you sheriff?" I asked with my light in his face. "Yeah you can start by turning off the flashlight." David said "Well now you know what drivers feel like when you point yours in their faces. So what are you doing in front of our house and how did you get our address?" I asked with crossed arms as Damian stood menacingly behind me watching the sheriff. "While you two were at work the news of the accident was put up on the NBC news and your parent's names were leaked to them somehow and a couple arrived at the police station about three hours ago claiming to be your grandparents. Arthur and Alice Davenport ever heard of them?" I turned to Damian to see if he's heard of them and all I got was a shrug. "We haven't heard of them. Our parents didn't tell us about the rest of our family and we didn't know mom's maiden-name and dad said his parents died... I think he said slightly before we were born." I explained mine and Damian's stomaches started to growl. "Well it seems you kids are hungery so how about...." I cut him off AGAIN "We can cook we aren't as helpless as you think plus if you took us out to eat you'd be broke in the first time around. We eat more then regular people because our metabolism burns calories faster then other's do." I said before me and Damian walk to the door. I unlock the door. "Can I join you for dinner?" David asked. I looked at the sheriff I said "No." before slamming the door in his face.
