It was a Saturday morning, outside the birds were doing birdy things, while inside the Twinns were all over the place. Victoria, occasional superhero and resident timid Twinn was doing some needlework.

Outside there was a rattling of the security gate.
Victoria jumped, "Oh my goodness, I nearly dropped a stitch. I wonder who could that be? I hope it's not those strange cult recruiters again.” she said to nobody in particular.
She went to the door and opened it, there was a very battered looking Twinn standing at the security gate with ragged red hair, a missing shoe, and a dejected look on her face.

"Yikes! A refugee! Can I help you?”
“Sheesh Victoria, don’t you recognise me? Its me, Paige.”
“Paige? Paige? Oh yes, I vaguely remember her, she went AWOL last year sometime.”
“AWOL? I have been trying to get home for ages, and you bunch just go ahead and list me as AWOL?”
“Er… not me personally, it was somebody in HR.”
“OK, well can I at least come inside and have a cuppa and see that somebody in HR?”

“Um, how do I know you aren’t a fashion doll masquerading as Paige?”
“Do I look like a fashion doll?”
“Maybe you are an emo fashion doll, or a Goth or maybe an alien or a zombie, or even worse, a strange cult recruiter.”
“Somebody has been watching too much TV. Where is Caitlyn? Let me speak to her please.”
“Caitlyn? Ah.. good point. She is out.”
“Is anybody from the Twinn Council in?”
“Let me go check, please hold….”
Victoria went in search of somebody from the Twinn Council.
"At least let me in....."

"Drat. Too late."
Paige sat down on the step opposite the flat and waited and waited and waited but Victoria never returned.
Just when she was about to give up Skye came along the corridor. “Paige? Is that you? Wow, long time no see, where have you been?”

“Thank goodness, somebody who recognizes me! Please help me Skye. I can't get into the flat. Victoria went to find somebody on the Twinn Council and I think she forgot all about me.”
“No problem, gee, we haven’t seen you for so long I expect half of the girls wont even recognise you anymore.”
“Well, I do have different hair so it is expected.”
“Brenda waylaid your old hair so you may have to have it out with her.”
“At this moment in time I will be happy to have any hair! I have been like this for so long I don’t even know what hair feels like anymore!”
Once inside Paige found Victoria who had abandoned her sewing and was now reading a manga. “Eek! I am sorry Paige, I couldn’t find anybody and got distracted.”

”Unbelievable, I am gone for a lousy year and everybody forgets me! I suppose I don’t have a sleeping place anymore.”
“Nope, Igor has that now.”
“And Brenda has my hair. Who has my clothes?”
“Um…. Everybody?”
There was the sound of the door opening and Chandler came in. “Hi girls…… Paige? Is that you?”

“Yippee… 2 Twinns recognise me. Chandler, I am back. I want my hair back and my clothes and my bed!”
“That’s going to be difficult Paige. But we can get you new hair and clothes and everything else. We are just glad to see you back. Sarah will definitely want to examine you, and I am sure Igor would want to as well.”
“Who is Igor anyway?”
“That ith I…” Igor said, appearing behind Paige and putting her hand on Paige's shoulder. There was a rumble of thunder in the distance.

“Yikes! You startled me. Is it my imagination or has this place become crazier than ever?”
“I hath a idea how we can thort that out, thome electrthity and Bob ith your uncle.”
Paige hid behind Chandler. ”Nobody is going to plug me into the mains. Forget it Igor.”

Igor looked sad. “Thpoilthport.”
“What else has happened while I was away?”
“Not much, a few name changes, some new pets, a new Twinn Council, naming ceremony… blah blah blah.”
“It looks like everything changed. Who is the new arrival, anybody I know?”
“Marcy Valentine from the Continuum.”
“Marcy? The Kelsey?”
“That’s correct, she had a slight problem and Igor fixed her right up, well almost right up, she does seem to attract cutlery.”
“A minor thide effect.” Igor said from behind Paige. "I can fixth it in a jiffy." Once again thunder rumbled in the distance.

“Don’t do that! My poor armature can't stand too many suprises.”
“Oh, Igor is also a new arrival.”
“But wasn’t Igor a girl just now? Now he is a boy.”
“It ith a talent.” Igor said smugly.
Chandler took charge. "I think what we need to do is to get Paige off to the Salon so that she can get back into shape. Paige, find yourself a wig so long, I will make an appointment for you".
