Hi Everyone! I can't believe how many reviews I've gotten! I was expecting fifteen reviews for the entire story!
Anyway, replies to reviews!!!
Kiri-san No Neko-Shoujou- haha, I haven't had any troubles with Miakode yet…a crash is heard from the kitchen. I peek in the kitchen to see Miakode hovering above a broken ceramic plate uh…excluding that of course…
Katrina- lol thanks a lot
Magidramon I'm glad you like! It makes my day so much better
Firehedgehog- lol Don't make the FF.net readers jealous! If they find out, they'll either flame me to no end or else demand the link to it! glances at Miakode who is still hovering about the broken plate Miakode can only freeze so many flames…

Kayono- hey, hey! Who said flamethrowers were bad?! I most certainly didn't! Its my basic weapon!
Anime Master ZERO- yea, well, Rei has a weird way of getting lost. It's not his fault.
Windwingxs- Thanks and don't worry, that's the last time we'll see Darkman.
Tenshi no Rei
"You did WHAT?!?!" Megaman screamed loudly. Rei just closed his eyes against the outburst.
"I went out virus busting while you were gone." Rei said simply then braced himself for another outburst. Sure enough, another one came.
"WHY DID YOU GO OUT VIRUS BUSTING WHEN YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO DELETE THEM?!?! DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT WAS?!?! YOU'RE LUCKY YOU WEREN'T DELETED!" Rei gently rubbed his ears when the outburst ended. Why did Megaman have to yell so loud? It hurt Rei's ears so much. Rei then smiled.
"But I do know how to delete viruses. Adele-san taught me how to after Darkman attacked me!" Rei exclaimed happily, soon realizing he shouldn't have said the part about Darkman attacking him.
"WHAT?!?!?!?! DARKMAN ATTACKED YOU?! AND WHO IS ADELE?!" Rei fell over from the 'explosion' from Megaman.
"Yes, and Adele-san is my teacher. She taught me some about virus busting! She's the ruler of the net you know. She saved me from Darkman. She's actually really nice. And if she wasn't good, she wouldn't have helped me." Megaman took a deep breath to calm himself down. The last thing that Rei needed was him yelling at him[Rei].
"I…guess so. But I'd like to meet Adele for myself. And what did you mean that she's the 'ruler of the net'?" Megaman asked, curious. Rei blinked.
"She keeps order in the net. Adele-san said that she deletes some of the most powerful viruses in the net. That way weaker civilian navis wouldn't be injured by them." Rei explained, relieved that Megaman had calmed down. Rei then unexpectedly yawned. Megaman smiled.
"You sound like you've had a big day. I'm sorry I wasn't there earlier. But it sounds like you had fun anyway." Megaman apologized and sat down on the ground next to where Rei was. Rei sighed and leaned against Megaman's shoulder.
"It's m'kay. I know you've been busy with everything. I guess it was fun." Rei said softly, already falling asleep.
"I'll spend some more time with you tomorrow. That okay with you, Rei?" Megaman looked down at the smaller silver-clad to see he was already fast asleep. Megaman smiled. Rei looked very innocent and in some ways, like a human child.
"Goodnight…" and after a bit of thought Megaman added, "Little brother."
If only Megaman knew that what he said had been completely true. Oh the bitter irony…
Later that night in the Sci-Lab mainframe
Rei awoke abruptly to the sound of alarms screaming. Rei jumped up, shocked and surprised with a bit of fear growing in him. Rei quickly checked the surrounding firewalls that kept this area and the data safe. Rei gasped.
Three of the strongest and most important firewalls had been completely shattered. It was also where the most important information of Sci-Lab was kept.
Rei was sure that someone was trying to steal information. On what, he didn't know. He just prayed it wasn't the info on… Rei shook his head to clear the thoughts out of his head. Whoever it was, wouldn't want that.
Rei started quietly heading through the shattered firewalls. Rei felt a hand on his shoulder. Rei jumped and spun quickly to find Megaman looking at him. Rei sighed in relief and released some of the tension that had been in him.
"Don't sneak up on me like that!" Rei hissed lightly and quietly.
"Sorry." Megaman whispered back. "But I couldn't let you go in there by yourself. It could be World Three again. You might get hurt." Rei nodded and the two quietly and quickly went off to where the intruding navi was.
It only took the two five minutes to find the intruder. He was standing in front of one of the shelves of folders of information.
"Elecman." Megaman hissed, a sound that didn't sound like him at all. Indeed it was Elecman. The yellow and brown navi was quickly browsing through the information. The navi found what he was looking for and smirked. He was about to log out when Megaman jumped out. "Stop right there, Elecman!" Megaman exclaimed.
Elecman took a quick step backward and smiled even more.
"You're too late, Megaman. We've found what we were looking for and you'll be 'shocked' at what our new plans are! Once of course we initiate them of course! Ciao!" Elecman said and logged out before Megaman could grab him, taking with him the folder of information. Megaman growled a deep sound in his throat.
"Damn it…he got away…Rei, can you find out what he took?" Megaman asked the younger navi. After all, Rei had knowledge of what should be on those shelves. Rei nodded and held his hand over the empty slot on the shelf where the folder had once been. After a moment, Rei gasped in horror and shock.
"What?" Megaman asked, alarmed. Rei gulped and took his hand down from the shelf.
"He…he took the information on…me!" Rei gasped his breathing a bit quicker than normal. Megaman blinked. What could be so important about Rei that World Three found they had to take?
"What was so important about it?" Rei clutched his other hand and squeezed it tightly and started to cry lightly.
"E-everything. It had the information on who I was and how Dr Hikari transferred…" Rei stuttered lightly and caught himself right as he was about to give away the secret that Dr Hikari had told him to never tell. Rei bit his lip and looked down at the ground. As you can probably expect, Megaman was really confused now.
"Who you were? Rei, what aren't you telling me?" Megaman asked, slightly hurt that Rei hadn't told him about whatever was bothering him. Rei gulped and looked up into Megaman's emerald eyes.
"E-everything. Dr Hikari…I…"
"Calm down, Rei. Just tell what happened." Megaman said softly. Rei nodded and took a deep breath to calm himself.
"O-okay. Megaman, we knew each other long before I was activated." Megaman looked at him puzzled, but didn't say anything.
"Do you know what my name truly means?" Megaman shook his head 'no'.
"It means 'spirit' and that's exactly what I am. Just a spirit of someone you knew extremely well." Rei looked squarely into Megaman's eyes, his face deadly serious.
"It's me, Megaman. I never left you even though you thought I did. It's me, Megaman. It's me, Lan Hikari."
Muwahaha! Rei's true identity is finally revealed! How will Megaman react? And will this chapter stop all the people demanding me to tell them who Rei is?! Find out next chapter! Make sure to Read and Review!
