"hello mr president? Can I have just a minute?"

"what is it rod?"

"can I attend a ball in England for the company?"

"well.. the company is still currently under repair so I will grant you for now. though I will also give you some body guards to watch over you in the event."

"sure, no problem. And thank you mr president."

"is that all?"

"yes sir."

"good. Its good that your now being a good boy there."

"im always a good guy sir."

"well not to others you aren't. once they saw your satellite video over what happened at china, they are now having second thoughts whether if you're an enemy or an ally since as far as they can see, what they saw is just you being a vigilante."

"true. But if the world leaders are now on the move against energy weapons, then maybe I wont have to move anymore."

"please don't give me more trouble than im already handling boy."

"sure, no problem. Im just glad they are now responding to my efforts."

"anyways, have fun at the ball."

Rod then hangs up after saying their goodbyes.

In his office, rod just finished a call to the president where they were approved to go to the ball.

"hey rod, there is something that I forgot to tell you." Sheryl happily came by his office

"oh Sheryl! Good news! i was with the president just now and im approved to go to the ball. You want to come?"

"really? That's great news! this way—" Sheryl said as she walks towards rods desk

"we can gain more investors for our company" both said

"and we can finally build what I had in mind."

"like what?"

"a rescue company and a security agency."

"wow, that there are big projects. Are you sure that we are ready for it?"

"yes we are. We just need the money for it."

"hmm.. with this, maybe we will finally be approved to build."

Kaori and june then came by the door to deliver good news.

"hey bro! I got great news!" june said by the door

"and we also got one for you."

"but hear me out first. Its mom and dad! They are finally awake!" kaori

"shouldn't I be saying that? Also, the girls also are now awake." June

"perfect! Let us all now go to the hospital!" rod said as he stood up

They then hurried towards the hospital where all of them were now awake, as well as patricia.

"remember guys. Never tell mom and dad and patricia all about what I just did in japan and china, alright?"

All of them nodded before coming in to their room.

"hey son! Welcome! How are you these days?" henry said in his bed as they entered

"hi dad! Mom.. and ricardo.. it's a surprise seeing you here mrricardo.." rod

"yes, I came here to say my regards to your parents over what happened." Ricardo
