Kevala had to get to the school, she had some things which she needed to take care of. For example, the math class she needed to complete before she could graduate.
Growling softly she would look at her watch, eyes scanning over the time and a slight shake of her head given. Honestly she did not know what was wrong with her lately. She was always running late. Perhaps it had something to do with living with Gabriel?
Nah.....
Either way she needed to get a move on, she had a lot to get done in a short amount of time. So, climbing into her car she was quick to turn it on and head off toward the school.
It did not take her long to get there, pulling into her usual parking spot and climbing out, she moved around to the backseat to grab her bag. Something was off today, but she could not quite put her finger on it.
Another shake of her head as she reached up and pushed her hair back from her face, tucking those black strands behind her ear softly. She just had to get through this one class, handle a few issues with her position as HSN and then she could go home, or better yet, she could go to her studio.
She had some work she wished to get done today anyways.
Turning and heading up the walkway toward the school, mind already working over everything she needed to get done later. She hated being so busy lately.

The school was a strange place, no matter how much she wished to fit in, there was just something that always seemed to hold her back. Always. There was no glum expression on her face, just a small smile as her icy blue eyes peered from the curtain of hair that covered a good portion of her face. Wearing a black hoodie and baggy black skater pants, she made her way through the crowds. Their stares bore into her as she moved, knowing they were there... Knowing they were watching the fresh meat walking.
A little intimidating, but that wouldn't stop her. Allegra was determined to fit in...At all costs. There would be no more being the outsider, being subjected to everyone's abuse. Those days were over... or so she hoped.
Pulling a piece of paper from her pocket, she'd look at the table, trying to find her class. Where was it? Was she in the wrong building?
When in doubt...ask a regular...
Scanning the crowd, Allegra would see the back of a girl. Yes! They were typically easier to talk too, right? Right? Walking up behind the stranger, she'd reach out and tap her on the shoulder. Never once looking up at the girl... Who was around the same height...
"I'm....I'm sorry to bother you.." Her voice was quiet as she continued on. "But could you help me? I'm kind..of lost..."

Kevala was not paying much attention to anything when she felt a hand tap her shoulder. Ugh! Already people were bugging her and it was still early!
Gah!
Turning around she was about to say something just a tad mean but she stopped dead, eyes falling upon
Herself???
She took a step back, the book she was holding falling from her hands as she stammered for a reply to the girls question..
"I...I....."
She honestly did not know what to say, she was in shock and suddenly things were going nuts in her mind. Trying to put it all together. Trying to figure out how this was even possible.
She went back through her life, trying to find a point in time when something like this had happened.....
Trying to remember as she felt something inside her mind begin to break free.
All of a sudden she was back in that horrible house her mother had kept her in....The one that was falling apart and always cold. But she had not been alone....Had she?
Her hands trembling she reached out to touch the girl. Unsure if she was real or if her mind was seeing things......
A name coming to mind...but it was simply a child name that she knew was something she had made up when she was but a little girl...
"L..Lego?"
It was a nickname..but was it real, or had her mind made that up as well....She would have to wait and see...
Gods she was really losing it now!

The girl turned around, it was almost like looking in a mirror, minus the fact they both stood in a different fashion. The girl before her was at a loss for words, as was she. So many thoughts wandered through her mind, that thing she lacked, that feeling. Maybe she wasn't going to be alone anymore, maybe. Although there was part of her that doubted it, everyone left her.. Everyone left her wounded and alone in the dark. That was only a small voice in her mind, the more powerful one was happy. Her heart hurt, icy blue eyes watered a little as the woman before he said a name long since forgotten.
"Lego?"
Said in confusion, a wounded heart cried for the chance to be whole. A chance to be brought up from the darkness that consumed her life, time to be given another chance to be happy. Surely this time, she could have a little piece of happiness.
Her eye brows curved giving her a sad expression, whilst tears freed themselves and traveled down her cheeks. Even though she was sad, a smile remained on her face. Happiness out of sadness, togetherness given by chance, separated no longer. It was a fourth chance.
"S-s-sissy?" Her voice was shaky as she choked back the need to cry, to release all the sorrow from the loneliness of her life.
The stares from all those around them became more focused. After all, it wasn't every day you see identical twins reunite in a tearful manner.

It took all of two seconds after she heard that familiar name for all the pieces to fit back together. She had forgotten her sister? How the hell had she managed that one!?
But even as she thought this the answer became very clear. It was too painful, too hard to remember so she had shut it out. Blocked it from the rest of her mind and sealed it away from all thought.
Tears filling her eyes, the first tears she had cried in quite some time that were the result of happiness rather than pain, spilling freely down her eyes as she reached out and wrapped her small arms about her sister.
For once she did not feel as completely alone in this world as she had all this time. It did not feel as though she were still missing some part of her when she stood there, so strong and proud.
How had they been reduced to this? Had life truly been cursed for them? Or perhaps just for her.
For all she knew Allegra could have had a far better life than the one Kevala had lived through. But she would have to find that out later.
For now she would simply hug her sister tightly to her as she laughed softly.
"I..I never thought I would...see you again..."
Her words soft and broken as the crowd started to draw a bit closer, though of course they stayed back seeing Kevala there, well, in their minds two Kevala's. They knew better than to upset her, so a bit of fear was naturally held in their eyes. Worried perhaps that the girl had finally snapped?
Very likely......
Very likely indeed......

There was so much she had wished to say.
To tell Kevala how lonely she was without her.
To inform her of everything... If only just to get it all off her chest.
Remaining silent, tears rolling down her cheeks as she refrained from saying anything. It was better not to tell her, she didn't want to seem like she was whining about things that had past. At that moment the only thing that mattered was Kevala... How she had been, what had happened to her. After all, she had lived a wonderful life, simple as that.
"I too had thought I'd never see you again. It's so nice to see you Kevala!" Allegro spoke in her normal soft voice, hugging her sister back tightly.
There was part of her that never wished to let her go, but a she did. There was no way that she'd allow herself to scare Kevala away. She smiled at the girl as they parted, trying her best to stop the tears.
"I trust you have been well?"
Smiling at her other half, ignoring those around her. Allegra stood at the same height as Kevala, they looked so much alike it was scary. Yet at the same time, it just felt so right. At that moment, Allegra was ready to become whatever Kevala needed.

It honestly felt as though she was looking at one of her clones. But she could tell that it was not clone, this girl did not hold the same confidence and pride that Kevala herself did. No, there was much fear and worthlessness. Kevala knew those feelings all too well, for deep down she felt them to.
The only difference was that Kev hid those feelings, apparently life had caused Allegra to wear those feelings on her sleeve behind a mask of happiness.
Yes, her sister was nothing like her, yet at the same time they were similar in almost every single way.
"I am here. That is all I can say."
She would look back at her sister, looking into her same icy blue hues. She was never one to lie and to say that life had been all good would have been to do such. No, life had been horrible....empty...and now, she understood fully why.
"But I can sense that things have perhaps not been well for you either?"
Tilting her head softly as she reached out, taking her sister's hand and tugging her toward a bench that lined the walkway.
Once there she would sit, not caring about her class she was going to miss, the teacher would not tell her anything. Gods she was a pillar for Gods sake.
"Tell me...what has happened to you. I must know."
Her tone soft, caring. She was worried about her sister. Kevala worried about everyone she cared for, why would this be any different?
She would do whatever she must to protect her sister. Just as she had when they were children. Old habits die hard apparently.

There wasn't much to be said, after all she couldn't tell Kevala of all the things that had happened. It wasn't worth telling. Either.. It had to mean that her dear sister had been faced with unhappiness throughout her life. No, she deserved happiness... It made Allegra sad to think about her sister in an state. Although it seemed that Kev was more so worried about her. Strange girl. Leading her off to the side to sit, even knowing they both had class in a few. Far too kind for her own good. Which was why a lie was in place.
"Tell me...what has happened to you. I must know."
The same old sister, always looking out for me....
The smile remained even though her heart ached. She looked at her other self, noticing just how strong and kind Kevala had grown to be, even though she had been in the past. She had just gotten more and more radiant over time.
"Well, I lived with a wonderful family up until they had their own child not too long ago. I felt like I was a burden, I I left them. I thought this would be a nice place to start off my life on my own." She'd pause for a second before chuckling softly,"Apparently I picked a good place! It brought me back to you."
Pain from lying, although she smiled on. Worry was something she didn't want to thrust upon Kevala, so it was necessary to hide everything. It was time to reverse it.
"What about you? How have you been?" Allegra spoke with worry in her voice as she prayed nothing bad had happened to her during the separation.

Kevala could sense the lie but she said nothing. She would not push the matter right now. They would have the rest of their lives to deal with the past. Right now Kevala would focus on the here and now.
"I am good now."
She would simply avoid the matter of the past, not wishing to tell her timid sister all that she had endured in her life. Especially in her time here.
She knew what would get the subject to something happy!
"I have something important you must know."
Her eyes seeming to light up as she pulled out her cell phone and opened it up, turning the screen toward Allegra to show her the picture on the front cover.
The picture of Aiden and Kazumi.
"They are your niece and nephew."
She did not feel the need to say anything else. Sure that her sister would be overjoyed to find out that they existed.

Good...now...
That meant that she wasn't always good, that something and happened to her at some point in time. That wasn't good, but it was obvious Kev didn't wish to talk about it. Probably not good to talk about sad things when being reunited. Keep it happy, so you can remember the day with a smile on ones face. Or at least thats what she believed, as odd as it was.
Something important?
...
...
....
Looking to the screen and the mix of the words...
No way.
Her twin sister had children of her own? The more she examined the picture, the more it became clear, or so she assumed it did. "They are soo cute Sis!!" Allegra cheered happily never really raising her voice. She never did. Always talking in a soft tone. "Are they twins!?"
Another set of twins!
How cute.
"What are their namesss!!? How old are they?" Alegro spoke in a cheerful tone, almost forgetting about all the negativity earlier. There was a smile on her face as she focused on the picture. More family, children she could spoil. Family was nice!

She noted the way in which the atmosphere of the area seemed to change as soon as her sister's eyes fell upon the picture of the twins. A smile gracing her features as she listened to the happiness over such a realization spill forth from Allegra.
It warmed her heart to know that she had managed to bring some happiness to her sister. Given the fact that she could tell things had not exactly been going well for the other half of herself.
"Aiden and Kazumi."
She would offer up their names, something rare for her to do, but then this was not your typical situation. She felt an instant trust toward her sister and she would not let that trust falter. She would do whatever she must to keep the other part of her here and safe. It was just what she felt she must do.
Her mind wandering idly over things such as where Allegra was living, what she was up to in this place. Had people picked on her already?
If they had Kevala would have them destroyed. It was well within her power to do such.
But for now she kept that happy smile upon her lips. Unsure if her sister could indeed sense the emotions the way Kevala could. There was so much that they both had to learn about each other, it would take time. Something that they both had plenty of.
"Perhaps you would care to meet them later today?"
For now the twins were out with the Nanny, shopping for yet more clothing. But she would be sure to take Allegra home with her to meet them if the girl so chose. It was entirely up to her.

"Such lovely names!! May I ask where you got them?"
Such cute names, for adorable children. It warmed the heart of Allegra to see her sister happy. The dark haired girl smiled away, all that once plagued her mind seemed to fade to the darkness, leaving her with a temporary bit of joy. It was okay to get caught up in moments, especially when they are the brightest ray of light in an all but dark existence. The past was done and gone, leaving the future for them, for her to choose to do as she wished. That was a good thing, right? Shifting slightly where she sat, nervousness seemed to eat away at her.. Bit by bit, causing her to fear things like being left alone. Kev would never leave her alone, right?
"I'd really get to meet them today!?" Allegra's voice was cheerful, although it never raised in volume. The past held reasons to her lack of the ability to speak loudly, although they were best forgotten.
She had a family... Her sister, niece and nephew.
What more could she ask for?
Happiness for Kevala.
"When?"
Smile..Smile.

She did not let it show that she felt pain at the mention of where their names had come from. Instead she would simply shrug softly and hold that smile in place.
"Their Father named them."
It was all she said on the matter, a light laugh passing her lips at her sister's happiness and excitement.
"Yes, yes, you can meet them today."
Another soft laugh as she closed her phone and slid it back into her pocket. Her hands then coming down to rest in her lap as she shrugged softly.
"Honestly they should be home within the next hour or so. We could go then to see them. If you wish."
She knew that class was about to start but meh! She had pull and would use such to get them both out of class. Not like doing such would require that much work or anything.

It would probably be best to stop prying into her past.
Allegra smile as she nodded, looking at Kevala for a moment before leaning up against the wall and looking at the hall. The people, the condition of the school, and the feeling she got from it. The school seemed troublesome, dangerous sometimes, although it help the odd good person. She couldn't judge it so much, but that was much of what she got from her first day. The tears had long since stopped, leaving her with the paranoia of red eyes.... Crying had a tendency of leaving her raccoon eyed. Always...fun.
"That sounds wonderful! I can't wait." The dark haired girl would laugh a bit, pushing her hair from her face. She couldn't help but laugh with every person that passed wearing an odd expression.
"It's nice to see you again."

She would nod softly, a smile curling onto her lips once more as she leaned back against the bench and kept her hands on her lap. She would now start with the questions. Always concerned and always needing to make whatever was wrong better.
"Tell me. Where are you living? Have people in this place been good to you so far?"
She was trying to conceal her anger at the mere thought of somebody being mean to her sister. She remembered now taking many a good smack from their mother to protect Allegra. Doing such now, after all she had been through would be nothing.
A group of guys passing by and one of them shooting the twins a sultry little glance. Kevala of course would raise her brow, shaking her head as she spoke up softly.
"Dream on buddy."
A little growl offered as her eyes flashed crimson with warning. Yes, daring him to say something.
He was smart though and would turn and leave with his friends. That was probably best. Kevala did not feel much in the mood for fighting today. Attention once more shifting toward her sister.
