Fero was flying toward his hideout while carrying Porky in his arms. He was really excited and hadn't been in a long time. After 10,000 years of waiting his dreams of freeing his master were finally coming true. He never would have guessed that the user of PSI Rockin was the same kid who defeated Giygas. If it weren't for this Porky kid he never would have found out who it was. This guy was useful to him and he was glad that he convinced Porky to join him.
Meanwhile Porky was having his own thoughts running through his head. One minute he was regretting his actions and the next he no longer felt regret. He guessed that no matter what happens it will be impossible for him to change his ways. Porky was glad to finally be free after so long, but he was unsure of his decision. He had served Giygas with no problem and even had tried to destroy his former friend.
Porky's thoughts went back to Ness. First the boy's destiny was to destroy Giygas and now he was the only one who could free a demonic space alien from his prison. Ness was a very special kid and that made him feel jealous. Why was Ness so special? It wasn't fair and that upset him. Porky then thought about what it would be like to have Ness as his commander for his army. He had originally thought about traveling back in time to kidnap Ness and force him to work for him, but had decided against it because he knew Ness was 1,000 times stronger then him. He knew Ness would be a better commander because he was a natural born leader while that other boy what was his name? Claus, that's what Lucas had called him wasn't. With Ness by his side the two of them would be unstoppable.
"We're here."
Porky looked down and noticed that they were at an island in the open sea. On the island was a large building that had at least 25 floors. The building looked really advanced and had a large open field surrounding it. This place seemed like it was the perfect place to be a hideout, but he had to wonder what this place really was. If he had to guess it looked as if it was a military base or a research center for illegal experiments.
"You impressed? I happened to have come across this place during my travels. It was abandoned when I found it. It's not even that far from that island you were just at. So what do you think?" Fero asked as he landed in front of the buildings entrance.
"It is impressive that's for sure. Can you even live here?"
"Of course you can there are rooms here. You think that I would take you to a place that doesn't? While searching through this place I found out that it was an experimental center of some sort. How do I know? There were notes that explained what exactly they were doing here and let me tell ya, it was really messed up. This place was built in the 1970's and was shut down in 1991 because of an accident. I don't know what it was and I don't really care." Fero explained as he walked up to the entrance causing the doors to open up automatically.
As they entered the building Porky could tell that this place was indeed advanced. They continued walking until they reached a flight of stairs. Fero started walking up them until he reached the 12th floor. There were multiple doors lined up across the hallway like you would see in a hotel. He walked up to the first door that was in front of the stairs and opened it. Fero walked over and placed Porky down on the bed.
"Okay so I want to ask you something Porky. How exactly do you know Ness and how he is the user of PSI Rockin?"
Porky coughed before sighing. "We knew each other as kids so we grew up together. We were happy until I betrayed him to work with Giygas. As for how I know he could use it is because while Giygas was in the Devil's Machine he could use PSI Rockin for the purpose of copying Ness's special ability."
Porky thought about how mean he was to Ness. Ness was always so nice to him and how did he repay him? By insulting him and calling him names pretending that their friendship never even existed. He remembers constantly calling Ness a loser which in no way he is. Porky then began doubt his decision to help Fero, but he reminded himself that this was revenge against Lucas not Ness. To be honest Porky wasn't happy that he had to turn Ness into a chimera because once he does it there's no turning back. Ness's life would be ruined forever, but at the same time he knew it had to be done.
The positive result of this would be that he would be by Ness's side again. The good thing about brainwashing is that he can alter one's memory to whatever he wanted so he could make it so while Ness admires and obeys him he could be friends with him.
Fero nodded. "So what did Ness do to you? It must have been terrible if you stabbed him in the back like that."
"He didn't do anything to me. I betrayed him all on my own."
Fero simply laughed at this. "Wow, that is so evil of you to do that. I admire that." Fero turned toward the door. "Well I should get going. I'll get you your little minions back and have them transport equipment back here. I'll even help you create brand new type of chimera's, stronger then the one's you've created. If I'm going to be honest with you some of your chimera's are pathetic. Now if you'll excuse me I have work to do." he said before leaving.
After the Dark Dragon had reset the world and things went back to normal the ex Pigmasks stayed on Nowhere Island having no way of returning home. They all stayed at the chimera labs taking care of the chimera's that were left over since there was no way of returning them to normal. They were all happy to be free of Porky's mind control and sometimes even help the Tazmily Villagers with work that their destruction had caused.
As of right now they were all doing their daily checkups on the chimeras. It usually takes hours to complete this task and it was hard work considering how many chimeras there were. It was hard work, but they had to make sure that they don't go berserk and start attacking people.
"Yo Peter what's taking you so long on yours? You've been working on it for 10 minutes now." A tall black haired male asked one of the others.
Peter the guy in question was a short man with blond hair and was working on an Almost Mecha- Lion. "I know Andy, but this one's joints keep locking up for some reason. I've tried oiling them and replacing them, but nothing is working. I'm just so confused."
"Well I'm almost done with mine so I'll help you out after I'm done. It's probably just a bug in it's programming."
"Thanks man."
Fero was standing outside of the Chimera Lab. He tapped his clawed fingers against his head. "Hmm, they're all in this building that's good. I don't really feel like going human hunting. I should be making them obey me, but I did promise Porky that I'll hand them over so I guess that I have to. I have no idea where these seals are so hopefully these people will be able to track them down."
"Hey, who and what are you?"
Fero turned his head in the direction of the voice and saw a tall red haired male staring at him. Fero sighed as he shot black light from his hand at the guy. He watched as the guy was hit and fell to the ground. "One down many more to go." Fero said before walking inside the building. Upon entering he noticed a lot of people walking around. He immediately fired a black light at one person causing that person to fall on the ground. The got everyone's attention as they all looked in Fero's direction before running away screaming.
"Do you have to run?" Fero asked as he continued to quickly fire light before anyone could run away from him. He walked room to room firing lights at everyone he came across. After a few minutes he had gotten everyone and waited for them to wake up. It didn't take long before everyone started waking up and started to gather around him.
"Good glad to see that you're all awake. Now here's your task. Pack up all of this equipment and have it ready to be transported at once."
Everyone nodded their heads as they began doing what they were asked. "What do you plan on doing with these?" one guy asked.
"Don't ask questions just do it." Fero replied. "Now you will obey your master Porky Minch, got it?"
Everyone nodded their heads again. "Understood, obey Porky Minch." they all said at once.
"When you're done meet me outside." Fero said as he began walking toward the exit. "Now all there is left to do is capture Ness."
Ness was currently sitting on his front porch staring up at the sky in deep thought. He was feeling very conflicted and it had to do with Claus. Every time Ness was around him his heart would beat very fast and he would blush every time he saw him. He had figured out long ago that he had a crush on the boy and he had accepted these feelings. Sure Claus was rude, bitter and didn't like much people, but that didn't really matter to him. Ness and Lucas were the only ones who didn't care about his attitude towards people while the others didn't really like him.
Ness didn't know how much longer he could take it without telling Claus his feelings. He decided then and there that he was going to tell his feelings to Claus right now before meeting up with the others. Today everyone was meeting up for lunch at a new restaurant that opened up in Onett recently. By everyone he meant everyone. That included Paula, Jeff, Poo, Ninten, Ana, Lloyd, Teddy, Lucas, Claus, Kumatora and Duster. This was the first time all of them ever hung out together.
Ness stood up and was about to take off before he remembered something. "Oh right my medication." Ness was about to walk back inside when a voice inside his head stopped him.
"Why do you bother taking them? It doesn't help at all."
Ness bit his lip. "But my Psychologist said I need to take it. Besides it does help a little bit."
"I still exist don't I?"
"I guess you have a point. But my mom will still make me take it."
"Who said you have to listen to her? It doesn't help then it doesn't help. Now quick leave before she checks."
Ness thought for a bit before turning around and running off toward where he knew where Claus like to hang out.
"Your not seriously confessing to him are you? He thinks you're worthless and a total loser. That's what you are and you know it. That guy doesn't care about anyone but himself and his brother. Look I'm just trying to prevent you from having your heart broken."
Ness Scowled. "Shut up, you don't know anything about him!"
This was a daily thing Ness had to go through. He hadn't been the same ever since his fight with Giygas. He knew that Giygas had traumatized him up to the point that it affected his mental health. About 3 months after he defeated Giygas he started having nightmares to the point he would wake up screaming. Not long after that he started to hear a voice in his head that basically did nothing but insult him. His mother worried about him took him to see a Psychologist who diagnosed him with Schizophrenia. Now the only symptoms he has are hearing voices and depression, but his Psychologist said he should be watched in case it gets worse.
Ness never told any of his friends about it personally but Lucas had seen right through him and forced him to talk about it so he did. Lucas promised not to tell anyone, but he would if it ever came to the point in which he had too.
It only took him a minute to reach Beak Point and sure enough there was Claus standing up near the cliff staring off into the ocean. Ness walked up and stood next to Claus. "Do you like staring at the ocean?"
Claus glanced at his direction before sighing. "You know I come here to be by myself and to avoid conversations with people, but you and Lucas are exceptions."
That filled Ness with hope. Maybe he did love him back! No he shouldn't jump to conclusions, but he had to make sure he found out why. "I understand Lucas, but why me?"
"Well you're the only two who don't annoy me and put up with me without any complaints. Look I know you're here for something, so just say what you want to say."
"Don't say it."
Ness completely ignored the voice. "Well you see Claus to put it simply I love you and I have for a while now."
Claus's eyes widened and he spun around to face Ness. Out of all the things Ness could have said he wasn't expecting that. How did he feel about Ness? Ness was kind and caring. He helped out anyone who needed help and he admired that, but at the same time he thought if was foolish to help out everyone even those who don't deserve it. But the question is did he love him back? To be honest he didn't know. "Look Ness to tell the truth I'm not sure how I feel about you. I don't know if I can fall for someone like you."
Ness felt his heart shatter at hearing that. He thought that Claus loved him back but he guessed he was wrong.
"See what did I tell you? He thinks you're worthless and he's right to think that. Look you're starting to cry! Only babies cry after being rejected. Just accept it, you're pathetic and always will be."
Claus noticed the tears coming from Ness's eyes and he knew that he had worded it wrong. He then reached his hand out. "Ness I-" he didn't get to finish as Ness started running going faster and faster before teleporting away.
What Claus and Ness didn't notice was Fero hovering above them completely hearing their entire conversation. "Well it seems that Ness had his heart broken. This might be easier then I thought." Fero thought before taking off.
