Lucas sighed as he finally finished reading the last of the chimera reports. By reading them he knew all there was to know about each of the chimeras. The reports showed all of the animals each of the chimera's were made from as well as their behavior habits. Reading the Commander's report took him the longest. It showed the list of all of the alien DNA he was fused with and what powers he gained from it. There was one DNA that made him realize that the Commander was more powerful then he originally thought. Unlike his brother the Commander was built as a living bio weapon. That meant that he was built to destroy. Lucas looked up at the clock and noticed that it was noon. He stood up and walked out of the Chimera Lab.

Lucas walked up to his and Claus's bedroom door and opened it stepping inside before closing it. It was then that he noticed his brother sitting on the ground with his head in his knees. What surprised him the most was that by the sound of it Claus was crying. Worried he walked over to his brother and sat down next to him.

"Claus, what's wrong?"

Claus lifted his head up and looked at Lucas. "I've seen the Commander without his mask on. The Commander is Ness."

Lucas's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that Ness was the Commander all along. He frowned understanding why Claus was upset. Although his brother would never admit it he became close to Ness. Not to mention the guilt that he carried for 4 years.

"Cheer up Claus."

Claus glared at Lucas. "Cheer up? How can I cheer up knowing that Ness is the Commander?"

Lucas smirked. "Well I know a way to make you happy."

Claus didn't like the look that his brother was giving him. Suddenly memories came back when he himself gave that look and he knew exactly what Lucas intended to do. Getting up he ran only for Lucas to tackle him causing him to fall on his stomach. He then felt Lucas sit on his back pinning him down.

"Why are you running? This always cheered me up." Lucas said as he started tapping on Claus's shoes.

"W-wait Lucas! I'm happy!"

Lucas chuckled. "Nice try." Lucas then took Claus's shoes and socks off before tickling Claus's bare feet.

Claus started laughing as he squirmed around trying to get free but the tickling left him weak. "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Lucas stop it!"

Lucas stuck his tongue out. "No, this is payback for all the times you did it to me. Besides I'm just trying to make you happy." He then took a feather out of his pocket and started to slowly stroke his older brother's toes.

"Ah! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha not my toes!"

"Yes, your toes." Lucas then started to swab the feather between Claus's toes causing him to shriek in laughter.

"P-please n-no more!"

"Are you happy?"

"Yes!"

Lucas continued tickling Claus for another 15 minutes and by that time tears were falling from Claus's eyes. Seeing that he had enough Lucas stopped causing Claus to pant as he tried to catch his breath. "That wasn't so hard was it?" Lucas asked as he got off of Claus.

Claus groaned as he wiped the tears from his eyes. He had to admit that he had this coming for all the times he did this to his brother. To tell the truth he missed having fun with his brother. After everything that happened to him he was just to emotionless to do anything fun anymore. During the past 4 years his brother had successfully got himself to open up to others so he somewhat went back to normal. Well as much as allowing himself to have fun again.

"You're cruel. I never did it that long before." Claus said as he put his socks and shoes back on.

Lucas shrugged. "I should have done it longer, but I was nice enough not to. Now do you feel better?"

Honestly Claus did feel better then before. "Yeah I do. I'm sorry for looking so weak. I'm the older brother, I should be the strong one."

Lucas smiled. "That's okay, I understand that it isn't easy to take this in."

"Yeah, I don't know why I was upset. This should be a good thing right? I mean we know a lot about Ness so we should be able to get back his memory easily."

Lucas frowned. "I'm afraid it won't be that easy. I've read his report and apparently his brain is a computer. Well most of it including the part that stores memory. His brain stores information based on programming and that relates only to vital information relating to the army. The chances of him gaining his memory back are very slim. If you do what mom did to get your memories back all you'll do is make him angry and he's got a nasty temper."

Claus made sure to take all of this in. If he couldn't tell the Commander his memories then how was he supposed to get them back without making him angry? Well he could tell him things about his past without referring to him. He decided that's what he'll do. He won't stop until he succeeded.

"Claus I have to ask you a question that is very important and you must answer honestly."

"Okay, what's the question?"

"Do you love him?"

Claus's eyes widened as his face turned a deep red. "Why are you asking me this?"

"It's important. If you love him then your love could free him. Now please answer the question."

Claus began to think about this. For the past 4 years he reflected on this and he thought about it every day. He knew that he felt something toward him, but he didn't know what it was. All he knew was that he missed Ness terribly for all these years. Could he truly love Ness? Is that why it hurts every time he thought about him? After a bit of thinking he finally came up with an answer. He looked his brother in the eyes. "Yes I do love him. I denied it for far to long and it's time I finally realize it."

Lucas smiled. "Good. Now I'm hungry, let's go get something to eat before I have to get back to work."

"Yeah, let's go."

Claus and Lucas stood up before leaving and heading toward the cafeteria.

A Pork Bean landed on the ground as the door opened up and Tracy stepped out followed by 2 Tyrants. A third one flew and landed next to the others. Tracy looked around. "So this is Onett. Well time to look for some seals."

"Ah monster! Everyone run!"

Tracy noticed that people were running away from where she was. After a few short seconds the entire town was empty. She rolled her eyes. "Tch wimps." She then noticed that the Tyrants were looking at a pathway at the back of the town. "Do you sense something?"

The Tyrants nodded as they started walking in the direction of the pathway. After a bit of walking they reached two houses and the Tyrants stopped at the first house. They then pointed at the house.

Tracy tilted her head. "Are you sure? That is a house we're talking about here."

The Tyrants nodded as they started walking toward the house with Tracy following them.

To be honest Tracy was quite surprised that one of the seals was inside a house. From what she's been told all of the seals so far have been in isolated areas like in caves or inside mountains. Approaching the house she saw the name 'Anderson' next to the door.

"So should we knock or-"

Tracy didn't get to finish as one of the Tyrants broke the door down. "Oh that's real nice. Go break fucking doors down that's your solution to everything."

Suddenly the sound of footsteps was heard and a black haired man appeared in front of the doorway with an angry expression on his face. "Hey! Who do you think you are breaking people's doors down?"

One of the Tyrants shoved him aside as they walked in the house with Tracy following them.

"Michael I heard a crashing noise is everything alright?" a blonde haired woman called out as she started coming down the stairs. She froze when she saw the Tyrants, but her eyes widened when she saw Tracy. "Tracy, is that you?"

"Yeah my name is Tracy, but how do you know that? Is the General leaking information? Oh I knew he couldn't be trusted."

The woman had a sad look on her face. "You don't recognize your own parents?"

Tracy looked between the woman and man. She then shook her head. "I'm a chimera, I was built so I have no parents. I'm here on official Pigmask business and if your going to get in my way then I'll just cut you down." she said as she took out her scythe and pointed it at the woman. Seeing neither of them move she nodded her head. She then started to follow the Tyrants as they walked over to a door and broke it down.

The Tyrants started walking down a set of stairs which was assumed to be the basement. When they reached the basement Tracy started looking around.

"There's nothing down here. Are you sure you're not malfunctioning?"

All 3 Tyrants started walking over to a wall before they started punching it. After a few hits the wall crumbled and a hidden room was revealed. In the middle of the ground was a hole with a ladder.

"Stay here."

Tracy walked into the room and started climbing down the ladder. After a minute of climbing down she finally reached the bottom. She saw a pathway and started walking along it. After a few minutes of walking she came across a large room and in the middle of it was a large crystal ball glowing with black aura.

"Well what do you know I found one of the seals. Time to report it to the General." she said as she pulled out a phone out of her pocket. She then started dialing the number that the Commander gave her.

Claus and Lucas had finished eating and were in the middle of talking when Claus heard a beeping sound come from his uniform pocket. Confused he reached inside and pulled out a phone that he didn't know he had. Flipping the phone open he hit the talk button before placing the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"General it's Tracy. I found one of the seals. It's in Onett underneath a house behind the town. Tell the Commander to look for the house that has Anderson on it, okay?"

Claus's eyes widened. Anderson that was Ness and Tracy's last name. So one of the seals was actually underneath Ness's house. He knew that Tracy must have ran into her mom and he feared that she might have done something. "You didn't hurt anyone did you?"

"Of course not. What you think I'm some kind of brute? I was told to- hey what are you 3 doing down here? I told you to wait up there!"

"Command denied."

"Ugh whatever. Anyway I'm on my way back over. Goodbye."

Claus then heard her hang up. He put the phone back into his pocket. "It seems that Tracy found one of the seals underneath Ness's house."

Lucas was surprised. "Wow Ness house had a dark secret he didn't even know about. I'm shocked."

"Me too. So what were you saying before we were interrupted?"

"Oh right. Guess who's DNA the Commander's been fused with?"

"I don't know, whose?"

"Giygas."

Claus's eyes widened. "He was fused with Giygas's DNA?"

"Yep. Now do you understand just how powerful the Commander is?"

"Yeah, I see what you mean. Anyway I'm going to lay down and wait for the others to contact me before talking to the Commander."

"Alright see you later." Lucas said as he got up and walked away.

Claus sighed before heading upstairs to his room. Walking inside he took his shoes off and pulled off his socks before climbing on the bed. He stared at the ceiling and started to plan on how he was going to get Ness his memory back without making him angry.
