Wow I got great reviews for the prologue and Chapter one, so here I am with the second chapter. Warning, this is not a weekly story. It depends on how much free time I have to write. When I work, also when writer block leaves me.
Ghost from the past
By Firehedgehog
Chapter Two: Brother
My brother, I failed him.
I wasn't there and he vanished from my life, died.
Would it have been the same if I had been there, would Netto have lived.
I ask myself that question everyday.
Why in the world did I have to be being repaired when Netto was kidnapped.
Why...
I Rockman failed as Netto's navi because I wasn't there.
I can never say Gomen for failing; I never will be able too.
I can never talk to my twin again.
Strange, Netto was my twin and he only found out a bit before he was taken forever from me.
I never got him to call me my long ago human name like I wanted him, Saito.
For years I've felt numb, our link was empty... empty like I feel now.
Netto, I need you... I miss you so much.
Brother...
Where art though
Somehow even while I'm lost without you I know you're out there, you have to be. Our link is empty but I never felt your death, but why can't I feel you.
Netto... brother...
Come home...
Or at least let me come with you.

Yaito sighed as she walked down the halls towards the principal's office, apparently because she was ahead of her class she was being giving the honor of showing some new kid around.
Yet, it was better then being bored to death during class.
Her mind easily grasped what was being taught, she just wished her homeroom teacher didn't teach them like they were all five-year olds. She snorted in her mind at that thought; she may be younger then the other children but in no way was she 5 years old.
"Stupid teacher," she muttered, thankfully no one heard her so she wouldn't get in trouble.
Finally she made it to the office, for a moment she paused curious of what was going on inside yet not ready to step inside.
"From your records I see your into navi battles, I hope you will follow the 'no battle' for navi's on the school grounds... and that counts in the school too," she heard the principal say, Yaito smirked slightly.
While Glyde and herself were not the most powerful and talented battlers at the school, they were in the top five in Japan.
'New Victim' she thought, aahhh yes... someone new to battle with.
Yet to her annoyance the new students reply was too low for her to hear, but it was time for her to enter anyway.
"Principal Ren, I'm here as requested," Yaito said politely, the principal nodded and turning slightly she got her first look at the person she would be showing around for today and to his classes for probably a day or two.
'Oh my' she thought fighting off a blush, she hadn't expected him to be so cute even if he was older then herself.
Miss Yaito, this is Tajiri Yami, Yami just moved here from all the way across the world... please make him welcome," Ren said, and with that the two of them were dismissed.
"I might as well show you to first class, thankfully since its your first day you won't be in trouble for being late," Yaito told him, Yami smiled and looked at the schedule in his hand.
"I have a math class first," he said in a quiet voice, this was the first time he had spoken and this caused Yaito to jump slightly. But him speaking was not what startled her; it was his voice.
'It reminds me of Netto's voice' she thought, she felt a sadness in her heart knowing that the fate of her long vanished and presumed dead friend would haunt her for a very long time.
"Yaito are you okay?" Yami said finally, Yaito shook herself from those depressing thoughts and smiled at the white haired boy.
"I'm fine Yami, why don't I look at your schedule so I know where we are going first," she said, he gave her a small chuckle and passed it to her.
Her eyes widened in surprise as she saw which math class it was, looked like some of her friends would be in it too.
'Enzan and Meiru are in that class' she thought, hopefully they would keep him out of trouble for his first day... first days were always the worst.
***
Enzan typed on the small computer working on the math problems they were giving for class, they were easy enough... this teacher kept all the hard questions for his infamous pop quizzes and tests.
As he typed away over the not very complex problems, Enzan's mind wandered back to the meeting with the white haired teen... there was just something about the other boy that bugged him.
'What was is, and why does he seem so familiar' the dual colored haired teen thought (what, in the anime he has two hair colors). 'Maybe its just because his voice reminds me of Netto' Enzan thought, it probably was.
It was at that moment there was a knock heard at the classroom's door, the student's heads looked up curious of who it could be.
Their teacher opened and had a low conversation with someone, from what Enzan could see the teacher looked at some papers. Then finally the teacher nodded; then he looked at the class.
"Class we are receiving a new student, please welcome him," the teacher said, and if fate was laughing at Enzan he walked in... the white haired boy from earlier.
"Konnichi wa, my name is Tajiri Yami and I am very happy to be in your class," the teen said, Enzan blinked at the first name... Yami meant Darkness... what did this mean for the teen's personality.
"Yami you may sit in the one free desk in class," the teacher said, Yami nodded and headed in the direction of the desk. It was then that Enzan remembered something, the free desk was right beside him.
Finally most of the class was over and it was just reading over the material they had done and fix mistakes, pretty much free time.
"I hope I didn't make you too late for class," a voice said startling Enzan from going through his chips, he turned and saw that it was the white haired Yami who had spoken.
"Thankfully no, the teacher was running late so I didn't get in trouble," Enzan said with a non-commitable shrug. Yami smiled.
"I'm Yami, but you already know that," Yami said.
"Enzan," he said simply.
"Ignore Enzan, he's just in a sour mode mode of the time," a female voice teased, Enzan sent a glare of death towards the owner.
"And you are?" Yami asked the girl, she had shoulder length brown hair and warm brown eyes, in her hair was a barrette with a symbol on it.
"I'm Meiru, welcome to the school Yami," Meiru said putting out a hand, as Enzan watched Yami's smile grew and he reached out and shook Meiru's hand.
Unknown to them; a new adventure was soon to start.
TBC
Next Chapter: Yami no Hikari
Like the chapter translates 'Light in Darkness,' as Yami gets closer to his new friends memories start to return but before he can tell anyone WWW returns.
FH: Woah Rockmans thoughts were totally depressing, if you haven't noticed I'm using info from the Megaman NT games and future anime episodes... pretty much I'm checking the cheat sights while waiting for the cool eps to show in Canada.
R.Calumon: Anyway see you all next chapter, sorry if rockman is OOC but you should realize that he feels he failed because he wasn't there and needs his brother because there like part of each other.
