Mr Mantis Shrimp drives the house to the location where everyone is. He drives madly cutting through streets, Togata sways in his seat from left to right but he is unfazed as he yawns.
''You told me that you wanted to come a bit later so I left earlier this morning to speak to the...Although I didn't tell them I found you, I thought it was cause you wanted to sleep a bit, but you didn't. You look tired, you should have rested''. Mr Mantis Shrimp says taking a sharp turn.
''I couldn't really, I guess it was the...excitement. I just didn't want to give them heart attacks when they just woke up. So they're training?''. Togata asks.
''Yes, although they finished now. Everyone's been training really hard, but most of all miss Shiratori, she's really good at combat and she's basically the boss around here''. Mr Mantis Shrimp explains.
''Aira huh? How am I not surprised''. Togata says with a smile.
Togata arrives at the location, ''Isn't this...''. Togata asks.
''Everyone, Togata is alive! He's here!''. Mr Mantis Shrimp shouts as he runs towards what looks to be an underground basement cover but to the left they see Aira training.
She walks over to see Togata exit the house.
''You!? You're!? Alive?''. Aira shouts.
The basement seems to open as Tick, Momo, and Jiji emerge wheeling the legless Serpoian.
''TOGATA!?''. Everyone shouts.
''Hey guys....I'm...Here..''. Togata says awkwardly as he yawns, bags in his eyes.
Everyone stands there mouths wide. ''Oh my, this is unusual how have you survived boy?''. The Serpo says.
''Huh!? Is that a....Serpo?''. Togata says as he is cut off by Tick.
Tick flies over hugging Togata tightly as he cries. ''YOUNG MASTER! I THOUGHT YOU'D LEFT ME ALONE IN THIS WORLD! AHHHH''.
Togata smiles. ''C'mon Tick, never. Glad you got back''.
Tick hugs even tighter.
''I WOULD HAVE HAD NO REASON TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU YOUNG MASTER!''. Tick cries even louder.
''Tick! I'm dying!''. Togata warns.
''Sorry young master!''. Tick says as he releases his grip slightly.
Jiji rushes over to hug him as well.
''Dude! We...thought you were''. Jiji says starting to shed a tear.
''You didn't think I'd die so easily, We still need to have a soccer rematch''. Togata jokes.
Momo just stands there mouth wide holding back tears. Aira stands crossing her arms as she stares un-emotional.
''Momo! He's alright! Aira was right! Everyone's ok!''. Jiji cries.
Momo walks over slowly and hugs Togata.
''Hey, Momo, hope you guys didn't miss me too much''. Togata jokes.
Momo lets go and kicks Togata in the leg. ''Don't you dare be smug about it you damn bastard! Of course we we're worried!''. Momo shouts.
''OUCH! Sorry...Just trying to lighten the mood...''. Togata says.
''Tick...You can let go now''. Togata says.
''Forgive me young master! I...I!....''. Tick says as he lets go but continues crying.
Togata just smiles as he walks over to Aira.
''If someone asks me, it looks like you preferred me dead''. Togata jokes.
''Psh! I know your types, I knew you were alive, and I knew you would milk it! Don't expect a warm welcome from me okay?''. Aira says.
''Oh...Almost forgot, how's Okarun?!''. Togata asks.
Everyone is quiet, but they take him downstairs to see his body.
''Is he...''. Togata asks.
''Yes, but barely, he's getting better though, but...We're not sure when he'll wake up''. Mr Mantis Shrimp says.
''At least he's here''. Togata sighs as he sits down.
''Togata! Togata! Oh my god, you won't believe what happened!''. Jiji shouts.
''Don't worry I know...Mr Mantis Shrimp caught me up on everything, and even though I know it's a bit weird to see a Serpo with us''. Togata says looking over at him.
''Not even a good morning, how rude''. The Serpo says.
''Good....Morning?''. Togata says.
''Oh oh! Togata! We've been training! And!''. Jiji shouts.
''Jiji!....Not...So loud please''. Togata says.
''Oh...Sorry''. Jiji says.
''What's up with you?''. Aira says condescendingly.
''Just, tired and have a headache''. Togata replies.
''Yeah, you look horrible''. Momo jokes. ''I'm sure a bath and some good food will fix ya right up c'mon''. Momo says as they go to eat.
''Yes! I will cook everyone a hearty meal! To welcome the young master's return!''. Tick says as he floats closer to Togata.
Tick hands Togata the pocket watch. ''Young master if you would do the honor?''. Tick says.
''Woah so that's how you guys made the deal....Can I touch it!?''. Jiji says.
''Of course not! This is for the young master's hands alone!''. Tick says.
Togata hesitates. ''Uh, later Tick, let's eat first''. Togata says.
Tick is disappointed... ''Of course young master''.
''What's the big deal? Don't wanna renew your vows in front of us or what?''. Aira says arms still crossed.
''Just tired, later''. Togata replies.
Everyone eats and immediately after their done Aira gets up.
''Ok, time for training again''. Aira says.
''AIRAAAA!''. Momo and Jiji shout.
''It's leader idiots! And yes we only have 4 days before the invasion and you lazy pieces of shit have made no progress! C'mon!''. Aira shouts.
''Bwut! Twogata just cwame back...''. Momo says trying to act cute.
''Yes, you cannot force the young master to train! He is exhausted!''. Tick shouts.
''Not him! You three!''. Aira says as she points to Mr Mantis Shrimp, Jiji and Momo.
''Ugh! Fine''. Momo says as they walk outside.
''No, I can't sit back while you guys train, I'll do what I can, it's alright''. Togata says.
''Psh, see even he wants to! C'mon get up your lazy asses and come outside''. Aira says.
''Ok....then after Togata can tell us how he got out of the alien ship without powers!''. Jiji says.
''Yeah...''. Togata replies dryly.
Tick notices how suspicious Togata is acting as everyone goes outside.
''Ok, today is fitness training, you're gonna do some reps of running, weight, lifting, strength and stamina training you ready?!''. Aira shouts as she stands in front of the team.
''Yeah...''. Everyone says sarcastically.
''Hey you!''. Aira says pointing at Togata. ''If you pass out or something don't hold me responsible, if you know you can't take it, head back inside you hear me?''. Aira says.
''Don't worry about me, not the first time I've been sleep deprived''. Togata says suddenly he sees the halo's appear on Jiji, Momo and Aira's head.
He stares. ''Damn it not again''. Togata thinks to himself.
''What are you looking at?!''. Aira asks.
''Nothing''. Togata sighs.
''Fine, alright start running''. Aira commands as she transforms.
''Yes, miss!''. Jiji and Momo said.
''Young master, it would be optimal for us to remerge if you get what I'm saying...''. Tick explains.
''Uh, not right now Tick, as you can see I don't have much life force, we would need something to replenish first''. Togata says making up an excuse.
''We don't have any chocolate here you know?''. Jiji says.
''Hmm, No need to worry! I shall do that immediately!''. Tick says as he floats off to get some chocolate.
''Hey Tick! Don't ya dare lead aliens back to us!''. Aira shouts as he flies off. ''Ugh, Whatever! Keep going''. Aira shouts.
''If Tick and I remake the pact, he'll see my memories and see...I'm not so sure I'm ready for that yet, just hold on a bit longer Tick''. Togata thinks to himself.
Everyone trains until nighttime and goes inside for dinner, Tick returning with food and chocolate.
''I have returned''. Tick says.
''Finally! I'm starving!''. Momo shouts.
''I feel like I'm going to die''. Jiji complains.
Togata lies on the ground panting as he stops himself from falling asleep.
''No need to worry I will cook a nutritious meal for us''. Tick proclaims as he begins cooking and give Togata a chocolate bar.
''Eat up young master''. Tick says.
''Uhh, I don't wanna spoil my appetite, later Tick''. Togata says making up and excuse again.
After Tick makes dinner everyone eats and rests, even Aira sits down exhausted.
''That was nice...Hey Togata! You still haven't told us how you got off the ship''. Jiji says.
''...Later...Jiji really, I'm exhausted and just want to sleep, I'll tell you whenever we have time promise''. Togata says.
''What's wrong seems like ya dodging? Did anything happen?''. Momo says.
''I'm here aren't I? I just want us to rest, we have to wake up early tomorrow after all''. Togata says.
''For once he has a point''. Aira sighs. ''Everyone get some rest we need to wake up early tomorrow to start training again''.
''I might not wake up tomorrow after all the training we did''. Mr Mantis Shrimp says as everyone heads to their bedrooms.
''Ya lazy alien! Better wake up or I'll haunt you in your dreams too!''. Aira shouts as she goes to her room.
Togata and Jiji head to the room as they make their beds and get ready. Jiji walks out of the room but is stopped by Togata.
''Jiji where are you going?''. Togata asks.
''Oh, just...Momo got herself cursed so she can't sleep, but I can help using my powers''. Jiji explains.
''You can use your powers now?''. Togata asks.
''Yeah! I almost forgot to tell you! I have a special move, I call it HA wave! It's super cool I'll show you tomorrow''. Jiji says as he walks off. ''Get some rest''. Jiji says.
''Yeah...You too''. Togata says as he rests.
Tick floats in and floats by his side watching him. ''Goodnight young master rest well''. Tick says although suspicious.
''Yeah...''. Togata says as he pretends to close his eyes and sleep.
Tick watches him closely floating nearby.
''Why is he watching me!? He usually goes to do something else! Maybe he's unto me!?''. Togata thinks to himself panicking a bit.
''Young master are you sleeping?''. Tick asks.
Togata doesn't respond pretending.
''Hmm''. Tick says as he floats over. ''Well if you are truly asleep I believe you won't feel this!''. Tick says as he begins to tickle Togata.
Togata grunts but holds himself trying not to make a sound. Suddenly Tick kicks him.
''I know all your weak spots young master!''. Tick says as he begins to tickle his torso.
Togata bursts into laughter as he struggles. ''Tick! Stop it! No! Fine I'm awake!''. Togata shouts.
''I knew it! What is going on young master! You've been acting strange ever since you got back! You refused to bond with me! Or reveal the truths about how you escaped! What did you do?!''. Tick shouts.
Togata sighs. He gestures for Tick to give him the Pocket Watch. Tick hands it over.
''Tick, promise me you won't panic ok?''. Togata asks as he takes it.
''Of course young master, anything it may be we will face it together as always''. Tick says.
Togata clicks the Pocket Watch as time stops and his hair turns slightly white from Tick using the life force to materialize.
''I feel complete!''. Tick says dramatically.
Togata just smiles.
''Now what is it?''. Tick asks.
Togata points to his head and Tick understands, immediately entering his body.
As he comes out his face is full of dread. ''Young master...What have you done?!''. Tick warns.
''I have no idea''. Togata says.
