Chapter 1: Prologue

"You really are leaving, aren't you?"

"Yes, Hikari. Now that the Cyber world is safe, and, that in turn, the real world is safe from the likes of malevolent people taking over it."

Netto Hikari and Ijuin Enzan were at the Densan airport terminal, where a long line at the counter for the baggage check-in was inspecting people's bags. Enzan's own luggage was one of them. The duo haired teen was going back to England where the IPC building there needs him, now that the world didn't need saving as much anymore. He's going to have an earful from his cousin, that was for sure. The IPC doesn't need him anymore now that his father was taking care of it.

Netto's heart stung. He couldn't believe it. After their rivalry, their friendship, their adventures together…It was all going to end. He closed his hands into fists until his knuckles turned white.

'Say it. I have to say it! I owe it to him that much.'

As the brunette was left in his thoughts, Enzan walked towards the baggage check-in to get his luggage.

'C'mon, say it! Why can't you say it?! He's leaving for good, say something!'

"Enzan!" He started.

Aforementioned boy looked at him, cool and nonchalant as always with his signature poker face and that mightier-than-thou air around him that made the brunette not like him the first time they met. His cold icy blue eyes that held more than indifference throughout their time together.

Netto's going to miss it.

He's going to miss their rival banter, their sense and no sense discussions, going to miss the times when he would storm into Enzan's office or meetings when he forgets to eat or sleep, going to miss their adventures-especially that one time that turned out to be nothing to worry about, going to miss how the duo haired boy would keep on nagging him on how to fight right in Net battling, going to miss…

Netto's going to miss Enzan, so terribly. Period.

Instead of the thing, the important fundamental thing Netto has to say didn't pass his lips.

Placing his right hand on his hip, raising his left arm and forming his hand into a fist, he struck the pose he's always known for when he knows things will turn out better in the end, added with his goofy smile, Netto said,

"Take care over there, pal! It's been really fun. Maybe we'll cross paths again, someday."

Enzan gave a rare small smile, expecting that coming from the brunette NetOp. Shaking his head, the duo haired teen raised his hand. Signifying one last handshake in their last minute together, as friends.

Seeing this, Netto returned the gesture like he always did.

Separating their hands, Enzan gave a final nod before he walked towards is plane scheduled to leave for England.

Netto watched him leave with a heavy, heavy heart as Enzan disappeared from the sea of people.

"Netto…" Came the familiar voice from his PET.

"I'm fine, nii-san."

Leaving the airport he met his friends that remained behind by the entrance for Netto's sake. Meiru, Dekao, Yaito, Tohru, along with their Navi's, Roll, Gutsman, Glyde, and Iceman.

"Netto," Meiru began but seeing the shadowed face of her friend knew he didn't get to say what he needed to say.

"You never got to tell him, didn't you?" Yaito stated. Not in the nagging voice she was known for when situations like this happened. She was all but sombre.

Netto shock his head no as his body began to shake. "No. I-I didn't…"

It was all the brunette could take as he collapsed to his knees as he began to cry. Crying his eyes and his heart out, and all his friends could to was comfort the distraught and heartbroken brunette.

"I'll never find another like him." Netto sobbed, and sobbed.

He was a cowards from the beginning when he and Enzan met. There were chances. So many chances to tell him.

But in the end, Netto never told Enzan that she was a girl from the start.
