Yuichi POV

"They're...done? Already?" I ask, shocked. 

A week after the show, Mr. Red called me alone to the lab. He said he wanted to talk privately. I thought it was about another of his experiments. But not this.

"Yep, the cleanup crews are done, all the glitches are eliminated," Mr. Red says. Smiling at me

I want to be happy, that means Floyd can go back...but then that meant he's gonna leave me.

"That's...great, that means the trolls..can go..back to their world," But those words left a bad taste in my mouth
"But, you don't want them to go right? Or more specifically you don't want Floyd to leave you." Mr. Red guessed right, like always.
"Yeah...I'm happy for them but I don't want him to leave," I said, feeling unsure

"Why not go with them?"

Mr. Red suggested, 

"What? Sir, that's against the rules-" I got cut off
"It's against the rules Boss made, but not against the rules the Higher-ups made," Mr. Red explains.
"Higher-ups?" I ask, confused
"People who give orders to Boss, who owns this HQ," He explains further
"Wait wait, hold on. I've been working here since I was a kid but this is the first I've heard about the Higher-ups" I kept asking, confused as heck

"Your parents were good friends with them, and your brother was their top-ranked traveler. And when you were born, they've been dying to meet you. After you move in HQ, they've been watching over you. They got cameras like everywhere."

"Your dad kept bragging about your cuteness as a baby, always makes the team dying to meet you. That guy was always a bragger," Mr. Red chuckled, reminiscing about the past.

"What was his name?" (Yuichi)
"Allen..." (Mr. Red)
"But the people here called him one of the swordmasters, your dad wielded the fire element," Mr, Red explains while pulling out a photo.

"Woah, is that him?" I ask, amazed,
"Yep, That's your dad."

"What about my mom and older brother?" I ask curious. 

"Your mom, was one of the top-ranked healers, hence how your mom met your dad. Your mom was the opposite of your dad, Allen tends to be loud and outgoing...and sometimes too reckless and stupid," I giggled at that, "But your mom is quiet, shy yet caring to people she's close to." Mr. Red smiled while pulling another photo, this time of a woman with blue hair with a snowflake pin
