Reveal -The household discover Raizel is sick from the most unlikely of sources.

"Vic are you asleep?" Victor considered ignoring the murmured question. He was almost asleep and whatever Cadis wanted to talk about would likely take awhile. His brother didn't dream much and found sleep uninteresting.

"Not yet." He grumbled from beneath the covers. Huffing he pushed them down so his face was uncovered. Looking across at his brother he was surprise to realise that Cadis was sitting up. Letting his eyes adjust Victor also repositioned himself this must be important if Cadis wasn't even trying to follow the night time curfew.

"How did you choose your name?" Ah this topic, "I mean the meaning choose the names meaning." Cadis was worrying the fabric of his sheets.

"Well when I was formed there was a feeling welling up in me over and over. So when dad asked about the names I sent him the feeling because I didn't want to forget." That had been interesting, realising he had a body of his own. One that was healthy and would get stronger if he trained it so different from what he was use to.

Come to think of it; what type of body had he been use to? "You saved dad." Cadis said, in the voice he only used when thinking out load.

Wait, What? "Cadis?" His brother started and gave Victor a very sad look.

"I overheard Papa and Dad; they were speaking about us so I stayed to listen. Dad was informed Papa about miles'ones in our development from his side. Choosing or receiving a name was a big one."

"And?" that was not the question he had asked!

"Dad was missing because he was in a harmed into sleeping. He couldn' even summon energy to 'ell papa. Had no'hing in him to heal his own injuries. 't was Papa's soul fragmen' the one you were formed from that kep' him together long enough to heal."

"But he is still sick!" Victor couldn't help but rebut how had some partial success bring out that feeling over and over again. So strong he still felt it come upon him at times. "And dying." He continued remembering their shrine visit.

"He is alive for now and Papa can think of something better." A stubborn belief in dad's constant presence rang in Cadis' voice. It reassured Victor who hadn't realised the enormity of what he felt in the shrine until just then. It left him tired.

"We should sleep." Cadis nodded his agreement, still with that concentrated frown on his face. Victor pulled up his blankets then changed his mind and joined Cadis in his bed. They settled down to sleep. Victor couldn't tell anyone that he hadn't kept things together but out them back together.

"Tao?" the hacker blinked up uncomprehendingly at M-21's worried frown. "What's wrong?" Shacking off the shock of what a little ears dropping had revealed Tao grabbed M-21 and spoke in his most serious voice.

"Call an urgent RK meeting. We need to talk about the boss's boss now." Ten minutes later everyone was gathered so Tao broke the news.
