Prologue

The two young blondes huddled together inside the cramped walk-in closet. They shivered, not from the cold, but in fearful anticipation. What was going to happen to them?

"What happened to Mommy and Daddy?" the little blonde girl asked, her voice wavering slightly. The little boy shook his head in response, mute with fear. There were footsteps in the new remodeled house. Yet this room stood alone, different then all the rest. Quiet commotion echoed. Yelling, arguing, the sirens of ambulances. The two children didn't dare move, for they might be found.

They stayed in that same walk-in closet for maybe over an hour, their muscles aching for the slightest twitch in movement, which they could not allow themselves to make.

Finally, when all the noises silenced, the twins let themselves loose, collapsing against the cool side walls of the enclosure with a big sigh.

The closet was very narrow but tall, with very little space to move around in. A few wire hangers were left by the former inhabitants of the house, ones they never bothered to take with them.

The two were worried; so very worried. Their parents had been taken away to someplace neither knew of. They were orphans in an unfamiliar, abandoned house. The little boy began to cry softly, making quiet sniffling noises in the left corner of the closet. His sister panicked and came to his side, patting his back and rubbing his hair like a mother would do- Although nothing that their mother would do of course.

"Calm down… It'll be okay… We'll be fine…" She told him and the boy shuddered a little as his cries faded. He looked up at his sister with red, watering eyes and she smiled kindly back.

"How about we go further in? Remember the story book about the children who found treasures in their closet?" They both giggled at the thought of the lighthearted children's book they had read years ago.

The sister took her sibling's hand and led him further into the closet, coughing a little as she stirred up dust bunnies.

They walked hand in hand for what seemed to be a very long time. How long were they going to keep walking? There soon was a faint light up ahead, maybe a secret passage to the backyard or basement. They walked toward it cautiously, and came to an opening that seemed somewhat like a cave. The light coming from the entrance was blinding, an extreme contrast to the dark closet they were in just a few minutes ago. The two shielded their eyes and walked out into the sun.

Awaiting them was the most beautiful expanse of land they had ever seen. It was like a scene from a fantasy storybook, with wide plains of grassy meadows and a large waterfall tumbling down the rocks. A small town lay up ahead beyond the expanding hills and valleys, not too far away to walk.

The twins stared in awe at the beauty of their surroundings, pausing to look at every flower they passed. Was this a dream? It was too good to be true. They smiled at each other with glimmering, lively eyes. This was nothing they had experienced before. And finally, the little boy spoke,

"Rin?" He asked. She looked at him with a bright smile stretched across her face, nothing they had seen from each other in years. "I want to… Stay here forever." He murmured in awe as a pink and purple butterfly fluttered past his face.

They both drew in a deep breath, breathing in the scent of this nature's beauty. Then the girl named Rin nodded.

"Yes." She replied

A/N: I hope this was an okay prologue, I was rushing a bit at the end, but I hope it turned out okay. LOL;; I hope I can have the first real chapter up tomorrow~
