"WHAT?!?" Brock was shocked after Master Frown told him everything. "Michael, are you crazy?!?"

"I have no choice!" Master Frown replied. "We all almost finished dad's millions and we kinda temporarily stopped getting financial help from Mr. McCain."

"But you still shouldn't-" Brock said, packing some of Master Frown's stuff.

"I was forced, can't you see?!?" Master Frown panicked. "They watch my every move, so I can't reveal much! Penelope and Eagor- they..."

"They...?" Brock asked. "What happened to them?"

"They- they changed drastically..." Master Frown replied with a sigh. "Somewhat brainwashed by my boss- some others are victims as well."

"Oh no..." Brock said, covering his mouth. "And why did she choose you?"

"Cuz of...my...p- ARGH!!!" Master Frown tried not to lose his sanity like his mother.

"Calm down, buddy..." Brock comforted him. "I know it's hard..."

"Did you...inform mom...and dad..." Master Frown asked.

"Don't you worry, brother." Brock said, putting his hands on Master Frown's shoulders. "I only told them you found a new job, and it's far away from here, so we have no choice but to move to an apartment nearby. You should've seen their proud looks on their fac-"

Brock didn't get to finish as Master Frown gave him a big 'thank you' hug.

"Why are you so nice to me..." Master Frown cried. "I'm such a jerk..."

"You mean well, and I trust you-" Brock replied with a smile. "I thought I told you about this before."

"Yeah, I know..." Master Frown replied, letting go. "Now come on! Let's not waste time!"

Master Frown and Brock hugged their parents goodbye as they went to find an apartment.

"So, I heard about a new apartment located just metres away from the Doom Lords' lair." Master Frown said. "And a man named Hugh Renson owns that place."

"Well that's great!" Brock replied joyfully. "Then you won't have to worry about turning up late to work!"

"Hopefully." Master Frown gulped with fear at the thought.

Hours passed and the guys finally reached their destination. The apartment is quite new and pretty clean. The both of them are very satisfied.

"Amazing!" Brock exclaimed. "Now we just have to find the landl-"

Before Brock could finish speaking, a huge man appeared before their very eyes. The guys were surprised as they hugged each other in fear.

"So you two are here to rent an apartment?" The guy asked.

"Y-Yeah, Mr. Renson..." Brock replied, shaking.

"H-How much is the rent...?" Master Frown asked.

"Tour first, money later." Hugh replied. "Call me Lord Landlord. I prefer it that way."

"Okay, Lord Landlord..." the both of them replied, letting go of each other as Lord Landlord showed them around their apartment.

The apartment looks pretty normal, but it suits Master Frown and Brock pretty well. They immediately called the place 'home'.

"Alright, we're officially living here, Brock!" Master Frown announced. "The place is clean, the kitchen is cool, the bedroom is rad...everything about this place is awesome!"

"Yeah!" Brock replied.

"How much is the rent, Lord Landlord?" Master Frown asked.

"Well, about 30 dollars." Lord Landlord replied.

"Deal!" said Master Frown. "Let's share, Brock. I'll pay 15 from my savings, and you'll do the same!"

"Okay!" Brock replied as the guys paid their landlord.

"Thanks." Lord Landlord said with a smile. "Now make sure this place stays clean cuz I'm not cleaning it for you two, got it?"

"Okay, Lord Landlord!" The guys replied in unison.

"Good," replied their landlord. "Lord Landlord, out!"

Lord Landlord poofed out of existence as the both of them gawked at the sight.

"Well, where were we..." Master Frown thought for a while. "Oh! You said you brought your gaming set here."

"Yeah!" Brock replied as he took it out from his suitcase. "I decided to open up a gaming channel! How does that sound?"

"Cool!" Master Frown replied. "Follow your dreams, my brother! Whadda you gonna call it?"

"BrockRocks93!" Brock already made up his mind. "I've been watching some gaming channels recently while I learnt cooking and self taught myself lawyer lessons. So I thought- how about I start up my own channel- with both gaming and cooking?"

"That's so cool!" Master Frown replied.

"Thanks!" Brock replied. "Well...shouldn't we unpack our stuff first-"

"Nah! We'll unpack them later..." Master Frown replied. "For now, let's just relax and play hard!"

"Yeah!!!" Brock replied as they started playing their game.
