''Young master Togata! I believe we've found an answer!''. Tick exclaims. ''Wait, there must be something on this in the book''. Togata exclaims flipping through pages.
''Here! Possession!''. Togata says. ''When a person is possessed by a vengeful or evil spirit, they often make the possessed person feel depressed, sucking the life force from them, while there is not cure, in some cases enjoyable feelings can restore health in some patients''. Togata says as he reads aloud.
''Yes, it makes sense young master!''. Tick says. ''The dopamine rush from the chocolate must replenish my life force somehow, I guess that's what they mean by enjoyable experiences!''. Togata exclaims.
''Yes, it seems things that make you feel alive are the answer!''. Tick replies. ''What else does the book speak of!?''. Tick says excitedly.
The 2 read the book in detail learning everything they can, and enjoying each others company.
*Narration*
''After that the years went by so fast, I managed to graduate in a year, then I headed to Apollo University of Science and Technology, I studied Aerospace engineering and managed to get my Degree in 3 years, me and Tick fought some more aliens of course, but the more we did the more experience I gained. Then I travelled to the US to get my Master Degree, after working an internship with NASA, I discovered they were already working on advanced flight technology, and of course, The Serpo kept a close watch, many of the workers there being Serpo aliens. I got my Masters in 3 years as well, and By the time I knew it, I was heading back to Japan for answers''. An older Togata narrates.
''Of course he had me! I was the one that had the Idea to head back to Japan!''. Tick says proudly. ''Yes you were Tick''. Togata laughs.
''Togata learnt a lot, and as he grew taller, stronger and handsomer, which he got from me of course! We got a handle for dealing with the Serpo aliens. Being the genius he is, and with me by his side we could accomplish anything! We sold some of the knowledge we gained from alien technology to governments, Togata and I slowly gained somewhat small fortune, But the young master being the generous young man he is he donated most of it to charity. So generous! Just like I raised him!''. Tick exclaims.
''We got kinda famous, and unfortunately the Serpo got a hold of our plan and made sure anytime we encountered each other they never had a spaceship around, we only managed to retrieve small parts, but progress is progress''. Togata explains.
''But, for a year we were stuck, the Serpo aliens went silent and we searched for a new lead, eventually I found a report of some sort of advanced aircraft being spotted in Japan! Desguised as the moon itself! So we set our sights on what just so happened to be Togata's homeland!''. Tick exclaims.
''Hey! You can't go back there!''. A security guard says. ''I have access''. Togata replies. ''Who are you wait! stay still! Name and access pass!''. The scared guard says as he points the gun at Togata.
''How rude pointing a weapon at us?! We must teach him a lesson''. Tick says in frustration. ''Calm down Tick, he's just scared we are here in the middle of the night after all''. Togata replies
''My name is Togata Toriyama, here's my pass''. Togata says blocking the light from the flashlight of the guard from entering his eyes. ''Oh!! Mr Toriyama! I apologize I didn't see you well!''. He exclaims apologizing.
''It's ok, and please don't call me that, it was my father's name''. Togata says smiling. ''I apologize again engineer! I didn't know it was you''. The guard says.
''No worries, I'll be going now, and oh please don't tell this to anyone, it'll be our little secret''. Togata says as he puts his finger to his lip, smiling with a wink.
''Of course sir! May I ask one more thing?''. The guard says. ''Sure''. Togata replies.
''Is it true you're just 16?! I know you're young but that's ridiculous''. The guard says. ''Hmm! He doubts our intellect!?''. Tick says arrogantly.
Togata laughs. ''Yes, I am 16, do you mind if I go? I need to catch a flight in 2 hours''. Togata asks.
''Of course sir, enjoy''. The guard says.
Togata gets out unto the launch area that NASA uses for rockets and he flies unto the rocket in preparation.
''The sky is quite beautiful tonight isn't it?''. Tick asks. ''Yeah just wanted to get this view before leaving, imagine we'll be up there one day kicking alien ass''. Togata says laughing. ''I cannot wait!''. Tick replies with a smile. ''Are you ok young master?, I am aware it will be hard for you to go back? Will you be returning to your old home in Japan?''. Tick asks.
''I don't think so, it's better to leave things like that in the past''. Togata replies. ''I suppose so, well let's head to the airport''. Tick says
''No rush, Also I would like to go somewhere first before we go to Japan''. Togata asks. ''Oh I see, Of course''. Tick says smiling.
''What is that noise!''. A sister asks. ''Sister Sumire go check!''. Sister Iris says.
''Oh my, Sister Iris come quickly!''. Sister Sumire shouts.
''What is it..?''. Sister Iris asks as she steps outside and sees Togata.
She runs immediately to hug him. ''Togata.. you're back''. She exclaims crying.
''Don't cry Miss Iris, It's not like I don't visit I come anytime I can''. Togata says smiling.
''Yes, but it's not nearly enough''. Sister Iris says squeezing him. ''Too tight!''. Togata says struggling to breathe. ''I'm sorry, Im just excited''. Sister Iris says but she doesn't let go. ''Please don't mind Iris, Togata, you know how she is''. Sister Sumire says. ''So what brings you?''. She asks
''It's just I'm going back to Japan and might not be able to visit for a while, I just wanted to see you one last time''. Togata says finding himself tearing up.
''Oh Togata, You were never one for sappy shows of emotion''. Sister Iris says. Togata hugs her back tightly. ''Yeah but I'll make an exception''. Togata says. The 2 hug for a while.
''Well if there's something that school taught you it's how to make an entrance''. Sister Sumire comments as she stares at a helicopter Togata took here.
''Always so sassy, I think I got that from you''. Togata says as he walks towards sister Sumire. ''Of course I didn't come empty handed''. Togata says.
Togata hands her a cheque. ''Oh, Togata we can't''. Sister Sumire says. ''I insist, I would be ungrateful if I didn't repay those who raised me?''. Togata replies
Togata starts to run off back to the helicopter. ''And it's too late I'm not going to take it back!''. Togata shouts back.
''Love you Togata take care!''. Iris says.
Togata smiles.
''He never says it back does he?''. Sister Sumire comments.
''He doesn't have to''. Sister Iris answers.
''Well that was a nice goodbye, hope you're now free of distractions?''. Tick asks. ''Yeah, Let's go''. Togata replies.
