[Action for Hawthorne Residence]
[This can't be real. That's Neku's first thought as he looks around the house, the photographs in particular catching his attention. Why is he with strangers, looking like the textbook happy family in a small town? He crosses his arms. This is absolutely ridiculous in his mind. The teen picks up one of the photos on the mantle to study it.]
C'mon, we don't even look like we're related. [He mutters this under his breath, putting a hand inside his pocket. Neku frowns when his fingers don't touch the pins he keeps in the pocket. Either he dropped them, which is highly unlikely, or someone took them when he was unaware of it. In any case, he's without protection if he gets jumped by someone.
Great, just great. This day couldn't get any better.]

Doesn't look like kidnapping's all that uncommon here. Anyone mind filling me in on what the hell's going on?
