Claus woke up in a better mood then he was yesterday. He remembered his moment of depression and he was glad that his brother snapped him out of it. After last nights events he knew what he had to do and that was to get the Commander to fall in love with him again. He knew that it wouldn't be easy since the Commander wasn't programmed to love and to unlock that emotion would be extremely difficult. He looked over at the clock and noticed that it was 7:50am which was 10 minutes before he was supposed to wake up. Not bothering to go back to sleep he pulled the covers down and swung his legs over the edge of the bed. He shivered when his bare feet touched the cold ground, the freezing ground sent chills between his toes. Standing up he walked over to the dresser and opened the drawer and pulled out a pair of socks. Grabbing his uniform he went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The sound of the shower going off woke Lucas up since he was a light sleeper. He looked over at the clock and noticed that Claus had woken up early. He turned the alarm off and placed his bare feet on the ground. He immediately pulled them back when he felt just how cold the ground was. Now that he thought about it the room seemed quite cold too. He then realized that he forgot to turn the air cooling unit off last night. Placing his feet back on the ground he ignored the cold and walked over to the air cooling unit and turned it off. He walked over to the dresser and pulled out a pair of socks before grabbing his uniform and went back over to the bed and sat down waiting for his brother to get out of the shower.

It wasn't until 10 minutes later that the bathroom door opened and Claus stepped out. He watched as Lucas stood up and went into the bathroom to take his shower. He went and put his shoes on before walking out of the room.

The Commander had just finished getting ready. Opening his bedroom door he walked out and headed toward the cafeteria. When he arrived he noticed the General sitting at his usual table and was surprised to see him there. He was usually the first one there. Walking over to the table he sat down on his special chair that was made just for him. The chair itself resembled a throne.

"Good morning Commander."

"Good morning to you to General."

Claus smiled. The Commander had actually said good morning back instead of a grumpy response. He then thought that he was actually getting through to the Commander. Last nights events seemed to have brought them closer together. "So sir, what would I be doing today? Will I be joining you or do you want me to do something else?"

The Commander shook his head. "No you will not be joining me today. You will also search for the seals."

Claus was disappointed. He wanted to assist the Commander, but he knew he couldn't argue with his superior. If the Commander didn't want him him around then he had no choice, but to obey. "I understand sir."

The Commander sensed the General's disappointment and was confused as to why. To tell the truth he wanted the General to stay by his side, but he knew that finding the seals was more important. Ever since last nights events he began to see the General in a new light. Yet he was still unsure of this feeling that he felt when around the General. He searched his brain for a scientific answer, but he came up with nothing and that angered him. He was really beginning to think he was starting to malfunction.

It was then that the chef brought them their breakfast and they began eating.

Nana was sitting at a table with Tracy, Minnie and Mimmie. She was half listening to what they were saying. To tell the truth her mind was on something or someone else. She then felt a tap on her shoulder and she turned her head to see Tracy staring at her.

"Are you okay Nana? You seem distracted."

Nana laughed nervously. "Yeah, I'm fine. Okay I'm not fine. Girls I think I've fallen in love."

Minnie smirked. "Oh really? Come on tell us! Who is it?"

Any response that Nana was about to give stopped when she saw said person entering the cafeteria.

Tracy, Minnie and Mimmie noticed the look on their friend's face and they turned their heads to see who she was staring at. They saw that she was staring at none other then Lucas.

Mimmie gave a confused look. "The General's brother? Why him of all people? If anything I would have gone for the General himself."

Nana scowled. "Shut up he's cute. Besides I think the General is gay."

"What makes you say that?"

"I'm not sure, but I just know it."

"If you say so."

Tracy looked between Lucas and Nana. "Why don't you go and talk to him?"

Nana frowned. "I can't. What if he doesn't feel the same way?"

Minnie placed her hand on Nana's shoulder. "You won't know unless you flirt with him."

Nana's eyes widened. "Flirt? I mean I'm not good at flirting."

"Hey, you won't know until you try it."

Nana sighed. She knew that Minnie had a point. She couldn't just walk up and declare her love for him without knowing how he felt first. "Okay, I'll give it a try."

Lucas had just entered the cafeteria and had just himself something to eat before sitting down at the table right next to where his brother was sitting. He was literally sitting in the chair next to his brother. He figured that he couldn't sit with his brother because that table seemed reserved for the higher ups since the table was literally made of gold. Lucas then looked over and saw Nana was sitting at the table in the far corner and he blushed. He always had a crush on Nana ever since he was little. He knew that he was bisexual, but for some reason she stood out between all of the boys and girls he met.

Claus looked over at Lucas and noticed he was staring at Nana and he smirked. He knew his brother had a crush on Nana ever since they were little. He needed to find a way to get them together and fast. "Hey, why don't you go talk to her?"

Lucas looked at Claus. "Are you nuts? Even if she had feelings for me she probably forgot now that she's been brainwashed."

Claus looked over and smiled. "You might want to rethink that because she's coming your way."

"What?" Lucas looked over and saw that Nana was indeed heading his way. He began to get nervous wondering why she was coming over. He watched as Nana stopped in front of him and began rubbing the back of her head nervously.

"Um Lucas was it? Can I talk to you somewhere private?"

Claus leaned over to Lucas. "She wants to suck your face. Make sure you use a lot of tongue too. That's really romantic." he whispered in Lucas's ear.

Lucas blushed before punching Claus in the face knocking him out of his chair. He then stood up and kicked Claus in the nuts before smiling at Nana.

"Sure Nana."

With that said Lucas and Nana walked out of the cafeteria.

The Commander stood up and looked down at Claus seeing him holding his nuts and groaning in pain. "Geez, what did you say that for? That was just asking for it."

"I was only teasing him. I didn't think he would turn violent like that. Besides how do you know what I said?"

"Enhanced hearing. Now get up we have to get the Tyrants prepared for day 2 of the search."

Claus stood up and brushed himself off. "Right, let's go."

Nana led Lucas to a far corner before stopping. She sighed unable to believe that she was actually doing this. She felt really nervous and was beginning to wonder if she should do this at all.

"So what did you want to talk about?"

Nana took a deep breath and sighed. "Um well I think you're really cute and I was wondering if you think I'm cute."

Lucas blushed and rubbed the back of his head. He couldn't believe where this was going. "Yes, I think you're really cute."

Nana blushed. "Thanks. Well do you-ah screw it!" she then leaned forward and kissed Lucas on the lips.

Lucas's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that his crush was actually kissing him. Not wanting to be left out he kissed her back.

Suddenly Nana pulled away and started clutching her head in pain.

Lucas noticing this began to get worried. "Nana, are you okay?"

Nana's eyes which were closed snapped open and she looked up at Lucas with a confused expression on her face. "Lucas? What's going on where are we? I remember being kidnapped and being placed inside this glass prison and then-" she gasped upon seeing her 2 mechanical arms.

Lucas couldn't believe it their kiss actually snapped Nana out of it. This proved that true love was the answer to save someone. "Nana I need you to calm down okay?"

Nana looked up at Lucas with fear in her eyes. "I remember. I've been doing bad stuff, haven't I?"

Lucas bit his lip not wanting to tell her the truth, but he knew he had to. "Yes, but listen to me Nana. We can't let Porky, Fero, the Commander or any of the others know you got your memory back. If they find out I'm afraid of what they'll do."

"So what you're saying is that I still have to pretend that I'm being controlled?"

Lucas nodded. "Yes, don't worry I'll tell Claus and we'll figure something out."

Nana looked behind Lucas and a look of fear came across her face.

"What?" Lucas asked as he looked behind him and saw Fuel standing there. "How long were you there for?"

"Since you two kissed. You know I'm supposed to report this to the Commander."

Lucas frowned as he shielded Nana.

Fuel smiled. "Relax Lucas, what the Commander doesn't know won't hurt anyone. Besides I wouldn't rat a friend out like that."

Lucas raised an eyebrow as he lowered his arms. "Wait does that mean that you're not-"

Fuel laughed. "I never was."

Lucas couldn't believe what he was hearing. Fuel was never brainwashed. If that were the case then Fuel had been pretending the whole time. He wondered how it was even possible. He knew first hand that the Pigmasks were ordered to brainwash the children so how come Fuel wasn't? "How?"

Fuel smirked. "I tampered with the machine. The strapped my arms down but not my legs. The moron left a pen right next to me and luckily I was barefoot. I grabbed the pen between my toes and started pressing random buttons when he wasn't looking. It would seem that I was lucky enough to have messed with the brainwashing program. I tell ya, pretending to be mind controlled is not easy especially since I want to punch the Commander in the face for being a jackass."

"Well as much as you want to you can't. The Commander is Ness and even if you do punch him he'll just snap you in half."

Fuel had a shocked look on his face. "That asshole is Ness? I don't remember him acting like that before."

Lucas sighed. "He had a personality change. Look as much as we all hate it we have to keep working for the army. Now we should get going we all have work to do."

Fuel nodded his head. "Yes, we have to continue our jobs. I'll catch you two later." with that said Fuel walked away.

"I should go too."

Lucas watched as Nana walked away. He sighed before heading up the stairs and toward the Chimera Lab.

The Commander and Claus were standing outside watching as the children and some Pigmasks coming outside. When everyone was outside the Commander began to speak. "Alright, everyone it's time for day 2 of the search. I programmed new coordinates into the Pork Beans navigation system so just head to the location marked on the world map. Now these locations are a little further away so you may be back late tonight. Just do your job okay?"

"Yes sir!"

"Good now go."

The children walked into the Pork Beans and took off.

Claus walked over to a Pork Bean and went inside it. Upon sitting at the seat he looked at the navigation map to see where he was going. The name that was on the map was Chrome Island. He raised an eyebrow wonder why an island was named that. He shook his head as he started the Pork Bean up before taking off.
