Netto woke up the next morning on the couch and in the arms of Enzan. It was very comfortable and he was vaguely surprised that he was the first one up. He glanced at the clock and blinked.

"Enzan?" he asked.

"Hmm?" Enzan asked, being pulled from his sleep.

"Do you know what time it is?"

"No… why, what time is it?" Enzan asked.

"11:34," Netto replied evenly.

Enzan's eyes flew open and he sat up like a rocket. "What?" he yelled.

"Good morning?" Netto tried.

Enzan cursed silently and ran into the kitchen. Netto sat on the couch looking very dazed and slightly confused.

"Blues!" Enzan yelled. "Blues! Where are you?"

Blues came down into the kitchen monitor. "Yes Enzan-sama?" he asked.

"Why didn't you wake me up! I'm almost 5 hours late for work!" he growled.

"Enzan-sama…" Blues started.

"I mean, yes I was comfortable but 5 hours is 5 hours. Shuuseki is going to kill me!" Enzan yelled.

Blues sighed, "Your father will not kill you Enzan-sama." But his plead for logic fell of deaf ears.

"I've never been late for anything in my life!" Enzan said.

Netto came into the kitchen. He laughed and Enzan glared at him. "Just what is so funny?" Enzan hissed.

"Enzan, you are aware it's Sunday, right?" Netto asked.

"Of course I'm… wait, what?" he asked.

"I asked if you knew what time it was because you don't strike me as one to sleep in till noon," Netto said while trying to keep a straight face.

"Blues, why didn't you tell me it was Sunday?" Enzan asked.

"I tried to, Enzan-sama, you were too busy ranting," Blues said.

Enzan blinked then looked at Netto and Blues who he could tell that both of them were trying not to laugh, or at the very least smile. "I need coffee," he muttered.

"Yes, Enzan-sama," Netto said mockingly.

Enzan turned on the water faucet and picked up the sprayer that was used to clean out dishes. It hadn't been used in years but Enzan found that it still worked quite nicely when he chased Netto out of the kitchen with it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Once Enzan had his mandatory cup of coffee, he was in a much better mood. And once Netto was dry he was in a better mood but that wasn't saying much.

"Coffee at noon?" Rockman asked in a quiet voice.

"Enzan-sama just woke up," Blues said.

"No way," Rockman's eyes widened. "He just woke up?"

"That's what I said," Blues replied.

"But…" Rockman blinked. "That's a very un-Enzan-like thing to do," he said finally.

"I found them asleep together on the couch this morning," Blues said.

Rockman smiled, "Really?"

Blues nodded.

"It's about time," Rockman laughed.

/I heard that/ Netto said.

/Good, because seriously, it was about time/ Rockman replied.

Netto grumbled mentally and ignored Rockman's statement.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Netto yawned and curled back up on the couch and Enzan went upstairs to check his e-mail. He only found to messages which greatly surprised him, then he read the content of the second message and his expression darkened. He stood up from his computer and quickly deleted the e-mail then he went quietly down stairs and tried to sneak out of the house.

"Where are you going?" Netto asked sleepily.

"Out," Enzan said simply.

Netto sat up, "You wouldn't have happened to get a new mission, would you?" he asked suspiciously.

"No," Enzan said rather quickly.

Netto got up and walked over to where Enzan was standing in front of his door. "You know, for being one of the world's best business men," Netto said. "You are a horrible liar."

Blues nodded silently.

Enzan scoffed, "Who said I was lying?"

Netto raised an eyebrow.

Enzan sighed, "It's a hard mission," he said. "I don't think you should take one quite like this."

Netto's eyes narrowed, "Enzan we had a deal, you promised I could go on the next mission."

"But…" Enzan started.

"Enzan-sama," Blues said quietly from the monitor.

Enzan sighed, "It's a replicating virus," he warned.

Netto winced, "Ouch."

"Told you, do you really want to take this on?" he asked.

Netto nodded, "Since when have I ever backed down from a challenge?"

"Never," Enzan groaned. "That's what makes you dangerous."

"What did you say?" Netto asked.

"Nothing, nothing at all." Enzan picked up his PET. "If anything happens, we're coming right back."

"And we need to be back by five, mama's coming over," Rockman reminded them.

Netto's expression brightened, "Yay! She said she would make meat spaghetti tonight!" Netto cheered and ran out of the door with his PET.

"Wait, Netto!" Enzan called. "You don't know where it is!"

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Enzan finally caught up to Netto and pulled him towards where the virus attack was taking place, in Densan National Bank. Netto looked at the tall building and sighed, "When are the banks never not attacked?" he asked.

"When they don't have money," Enzan said dryly.

Rockman sniggered and Netto tired to figure out a way to mentally glare at his twin.

Enzan sighed heavily. "Okay, let's plug in on the north side and see what we can do."

"All right!" Netto said happily. "Plug in, Rockman.EXE, transmission!" he yelled and plugged in his PET.

Rockman went into the computer and Blues appeared right behind him. Rockman surveyed the damage, "Level 8 reproductive virus, huh?" he asked.

Blues looked around and nodded heavily. "This might take awhile to get rid of," he said and summoned a sword. He launched himself into a group of viruses and started to delete them. Rockman followed suit and summoned his buster and started to delete the viruses as well.

"How many do you think there are?" Netto asked.

Enzan shrugged, "With how late we got here, I'd say possibly hundreds."

Netto groaned.

"You didn't have to come," Enzan reminded him.

Netto snorted, "Yeah right."

"Netto-kun!" a voice came from his PET. Netto looked on the screen and saw that Rockman was surrounded by the virus. "Konguesten," he yelled, "Slot in!" Rockman slammed his hand palm down on the ground and water sprung up around him at the same time pushing the viruses back. "Elec sword, slot in," Netto yelled and Rockman deleted the now drenched viruses with the electric based attack.

"Not bad," Enzan murmured.

"Heh, I've missed this," Netto said.

"Obviously," Enzan said back.

The two boys caught one another's eye and smiled then went back to battling the never ending virus.

Three hours later Rockman and Blues were very tired as was the entire Net Police force. Netto was starting to feel Rockman's fatigue but made sure not to show or say anything that would suggest so lest Enzan become the mother of all mother hens.

There were technically only three viruses left but because of the reproductive viruses nature of reproducing its self, there were three then six then if they weren't careful twelve making it very difficult to end the battle. Netto groaned and slotted in yet another mini bomb chip. He was starting to run out of those and soon Rockman would have nothing to rely on but his buster.

"Ready, go!" the captain of the special force yelled. All of the team members pulled out a battle chip and slotted it in. They were all spread gun chips and they managed to delete two of the viruses and injure the last one. It tried to escape but Netto and Rockman were too quick.

"Sword battle chip, slot in!" Netto yelled and Rockman sliced the virus clean through.

Commissioner Oda smiled and clapped his hands. "Good job," he said. Then he went over to Netto and clapped him on the shoulder, "Good to have you back," he smiled.

Netto gave him a large grin and nodded. It felt good to be battling again, regardless of what Enzan might think.

"All right, we've got five minutes to get back if we're going to meet your mother on time," Enzan said looking at his watch.

Netto eyes widened and he grabbed his skates. "Then what are you waiting for!" he yelled and took off down the street with Enzan desperately trying to catch up.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Netto skated far ahead of Enzan back to his house. By the time Enzan got into his house gasping for breath Netto was on the couch watching TV like he had been there all afternoon. "You," Enzan gasped, "could have waited for," he took in another breath, "me, you know."

"Yeah, I know," Netto said simply.

Enzan glared at Netto and took off his shoes at the doorway. Then he walked over and plopped next to Netto on the couch. "Why did you run off like that?" he asked.

"So mama wouldn't have to wait at the door," Netto replied.

Enzan blinked, "Your mother isn't even here yet."

Haruka poked her head into the living room from the kitchen, "I'm here," she smiled. "Did you and Netto have fun at the park?" she asked.

"Park?" Enzan asked. Netto elbowed him hard. "Oh yes, the park! We… uhh, had a lot of fun!" Enzan said.

"That's nice," Haruka smiled and went back into the kitchen.

"Park?" Enzan muttered.

Netto shrugged sheepishly, his ears dipping slightly. "Mama would kill us if she found out we went on a mission," he whispered back.

"Ah," Enzan said. "Was she here when you got here?"

Netto shook his head, "No, we were a minute late."

"Is your mom always so," Enzan paused, "punctual?"

Netto nodded, "Always."

Rockman laughed from his PET. "Mama is always on time. And she gets really upset if Netto or Papa is late too."

"So… she's always upset?" Enzan asked.

"Hey!" Netto protested.

Rockman giggled at Netto's expense. "Not as often as you'd think," he replied.

Netto crossed his arms and sulked, "You two are no fun," he muttered.

Enzan laughed and turned off the TV. "Can't you take a joke?" he asked in an amused voice.

Netto's eyes widened but before he could yell at anyone Haruka came into the living room. She sat down next to Netto and immediately hugged him. "How have you been?" she asked.

Netto tried to squirm out of her embrace and Enzan hid a smile behind his hand. "I'm fine, mama."

Haruka let him go and smiled. "I'm glad to hear that. How are you two handling everything?" she asked.

"Fine," Enzan said before Netto could say anything.

Haruka nodded happily. "That's nice to know, your father has been slightly worried lately, Netto."

"Why?" Netto asked.

Haruka shrugged, "You know, sometimes I never know with that man. But, as long as you haven't done anything to make him worry you should be fine," she smiled.

"Heh, yeup! I've been good this whole time!" Netto said.

/No missions for you/ Rockman teased.

/Shut up/ Netto hissed and his ears went back rather suddenly.

Haruka looked at her son and wondered just what he was thinking. "Netto?" she asked.

"Yes mama?" Netto asked nervously.

"Just what have you been doing lately?" she asked.

"I well… I umm…" Netto struggled to come up with a cover story.

"Netto went to my office and dragged me out early," Enzan said. "He said I was working too much."

Haruka's eyes widened. "You went outside?" she asked.

"I have it covered," Netto said quickly.

"Don't worry Hikari-san, Netto was perfectly safe," Enzan said.

Haruka sighed, "Netto, I swear sometimes you try and make me…" a low whistling sound could be heard in the kitchen. "Oh, the water's done boiling," she said and she walked into the kitchen.

Netto gave a sigh of relief, "Thanks Enzan," he said.

"Don't expect for me to cover you again," Enzan muttered.

Netto crossed his arms, "Well thanks anyway."

"Your mother is very protective, isn't she?" Blues asked Rockman.

Rockman nodded, sweatdropping slightly. "She still waits for Netto-kun and I to get home every night when we go on missions. She worries a lot but she also tries to hide it."

"It's nice to know she cares so much about you two," Blues said.

Rockman nodded. "It's nice," he admitted. "Even if I am a navi, she still cares for me as much as Netto-kun."

Netto lent an ear to the conversation. "Of course she does!" Netto said.

"It must be nice to have a mother who cares so much," Enzan said with a small, sad smile. Netto looked at him; he had never seen Enzan like that before.

"Yeah," Netto said softly.

"Enzan-sama…" Blues said only loud enough that Rockman could hear.

Haruka came into the room with a large pot of spaghetti in her hands. "Well, come on! It's not going to stay warm forever, you know," she smiled.

Netto grinned and nodded at her then held out his hand to Enzan. "Come on, her spaghetti is the best."

"Liking a food other then curry?" Enzan teased as he let Netto pull him to his feet. "I never would have guessed."

"Hey, I like a lot of food other then curry!" Netto exclaimed.

"Amazing," Enzan said while shaking his head. Netto glared at him and they walked into the dining room where Haruka had made a ridiculously large meal.

"Always make enough for leftovers!" she said in response to Netto's and Enzan's stunned faces.

OOOOOOOOOOOOO

Haruka left two hours after dinner and Enzan realized he had enough left overs in his fridge to last him the rest of the week. "She cooked all this in 30 minutes?" he asked in a stunned voice.

"Spaghetti isn't that hard to make," Netto said. "And I think she made the sauce at home. It takes awhile to make."

Rockman nodded, "It would explain the large pot she had with her," he said in a knowing voice.

"Shut up, Rockman," Netto said.

"What? I was just stating facts," Rockman grinned.

Netto rolled his eyes and Enzan coughed.

"Well, maybe we should turn in," Enzan said.

"But it's only 10!" Netto said.

"Aren't you the one who's for all intents and purposes part cat?" Enzan asked.

"Your point is?" Netto asked.

Enzan blinked, amazed at Netto's apparent denseness. "Never mind," he muttered.

"What?" Netto asked.

"I said 'never mind'," Enzan said again and started walking upstairs.

"Enzan!" Netto pouted following him.

Rockman and Blues exchanged knowing smiled and went to their PET's for the night.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The next morning Rockman woke Netto up. /Netto-kun/ he said softly.

/Nh… what/ Netto asked.

/Wake up/ Rockman said.

/Go away/ Netto replied.

/Come on, Netto-kun, wake up/ Rockman said.

Netto sat up and rubbed his eyes. "What is it?" he muttered sleepily.

"Delilah-san just sent us an e-mail. She said she's found the Neko Virus," Rockman said.

OOOOOOOOOOO

And, now the final arc of TWIN :3
