Netto's telepathic communication 'blah'

Saito's telepathic communication "blah"

(Hylian)

Prologue

Sleeping in his bed the young NetSavior Netto Hikari tossed and turned. In his dream were images of a hideous man with green skin, images of three golden triangles, a blonde haired women in a pink dress, a village of little children with no adults in sight, and many other strange places that Netto had never been before. Despite never having been to those places they all seemed familiar and some of the images were comforting.

Slowly the young Hikari began to wake mostly due to a certain blue navi shouting at the top of his digital lungs. "Netto Hikari! WAKE UP! Are you listening to me?", said the voice.

"Hnnn...five more minutes Rockman.", he thought knowing that he older brother wouldn't quit until he was up. He often wondered if Saito had made a recording and played that every morning. Given that it sounded almost identical he was guessing that that was the case. (Just five more minutes Rockman.), he said causing the navi to fall into a state of confusion and blissful silence. Well blissful for Netto that is, but it didn't last long.

"Netto-kun what did you just say? That's it I know he's still asleep.", said the navi looking through the computer. He found the volume control and quickly raised it to it's maximum setting, "NETTO-KUN WAKEUP OR ELSE YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!"

Netto jumped in surprise into a sitting position in his bed rubbing his eyes with the back of his left hand. (Alright, already. I'm up. Jeez turn the volume down will you.)

Rockman stared at his younger brother not really sure what to make of the strange language Netto was speak eventually he just thought that Netto was trying to worm five more minutes out of him. However he knew those five minutes would turn into thirty minutes to an hour if he caved even a little. "Nice try Netto, but you're still going to have to get up...and stop muttering gibberish. This is the first time that you've actually awakened this early, so with any luck you'll make it to school on time.", he said.

Netto growled a little and muttered, (That's a cheap shot.)

Rockman heard the words and used his programming to search for any foreign languages his brother might have picked up with his knowledge. The search couldn't find a match for the words, so Rock concluded that his brother must be half asleep. "Strange though, he speaks whatever it is so fluently. But it's not in my database, so it must be some kinda gibberish.", he thought to himself.

Finally Netto got up, dressed, and headed down stairs for breakfast.

When Haruka first saw Netto walk into the room she nearly dropped the pan of eggs that she was working on. True, she was surprised that Netto was actually up on time, but the thing that startled her the most was something about her youngest eyes. "I must be imagining things. Netto's eyes are brown, not blue. Must drink more coffee.", she thought, "One look and it'll prove that I'm imagining things." She took a quick glance at her son just as he sat down and turned his face back towards her.

The young NetSavior was caught the strange behavior of his mother quickly. "She's so obvious.", he thought seeing her trying to be discreet about her quick glances. What confused him was why she was looking at him like he'd grown another head.

"Good morning Netto, Sweetheart.", greeted Yuuichiro Hikari as he entered the dinning room. He stopped when he saw his wife staring at their son and he instantly thoughts, "Oh dear God, please tell me that Netto was just kidding about getting that tattoo." The elder Hikari moved around the table to see what was wrong when his wife said, "Look at his eyes."

Netto blinked several times before turning to Yuuichiro and asking, "What's wrong with my eyes?"

Yuuichiro looked into the soft brown eyes and then turned a confused look to his wife. "Nothing's wrong with them...unless of course I'm missing something here."

Haruka moved next to her husband and stared at her son. His eyes were brown again, but she swore to herself that she couldn't have been imagining it that last time. Deciding that it was just best to brush the incident aside she said, "I guess I just imagined it, but...for a second I thought that your eyes had...well that they had turned blue."

Yuuichiro and Netto looked at each other before getting up and fixing her another cup of coffee. They handed it to her and Rockman said, "Drink. You need this mama."

"Maybe they're right. I mean it's not possible for someone's eyes to change color like that.", she thought while accepting the coffee.

While Haruka sipped her coffee Netto got flashes of a strange boy standing with a large sword. They boy's body was cloaked in shadows, but one thing stood out of the darkness...deep blue eyes. "Who is that?", he wondered while he'd unknowingly sent the image across the 'link' to his twin.

Saito saw the image in Netto's mind and didn't really know what to make of it. The shadowy figure only made the elder twin feel that something big was coming just over the horizon and that whatever it was Netto was going to get dragged into it just like every other evil force that came their way. "Be strong Netto-kun and I'll protect you as always."
