This chapter I don't know what you'll think of, but I hope you like it. By the way I've decided that I won't make each chapter longer then the last, if I do that it will take forever to get each chapter out so expect cliffhangers and all that junk.

Ghost from the past

Chapter Six: Mirror Images

      "So... Chun has found him," Wily said, a man with flame colored red hair nodded.

      "Yes, Yami has met up with her" the flame haired man replied, Wily frowned.

      "This isn't good, he now knows that we know he's in Japan. He'll be on his guard now," Wily said folding his hands in front of him, the flame haired man Hino-ken frowned.

      "She has upgraded his Navi a lot, don't you believe she'll finally defeat him?" Hino-ken asked, Wily smirked.

      "No, she has no chance to win. Kage and Yami are too strong for her, even with Kage special abilities still locked away," Wily said and he closed his eyes, what he wouldn't do to get his hands on Kage.

      They had been trying for years to get Kage, ever since they had discovered that the strange boy Yami had him... all met with failure.

      "Sir?" the other man said.

      "Leave, bring Chun to me when the battles done and she is defeated... it's time she and I had a little talk about all the money she has been spending," Wily said, the other man walked away. The only reason Wily could tell this, was because he heard the other mans footsteps.

      'Why can't I shake the feeling that I should know more about Tajiri Yami' Wily thought confused. Since that day so many years ago and his defeat, he had felt that he knew the boy from somewhere... but he had no memory of meeting Yami before so that was impossible.

***

      "Well, that was a boring day," Enzan said, the others could only agree as they walked down the sidewalk next to a busy street.

      "I wonder how Yami is," Meiru said softly, Enzan looked at the pink (2) haired girl and had to smirk slightly at seeing a small blush on here face.

      "I'm sure he's fine, the doctors said he should be out sometime today... he might actually be out already for all we know," Yaito pointed out, Meiru's face brightened a bit but the slight blush stayed.

      It was then that they noticed that Dekao had stopped at least en feet behind them.

     "Dekao, what's up?" Yaoto asked, the large boy looked at them and then up at a building.

      "Look," Dekao said pointing, curious the group did.

      It was then that they saw what they had missed while deep in conversation, on the screens of the building a navi battle was taking place... in face on all the screens in the area.

      One of the navi's reminded Enzan of a Chinese amazon in design, the other...

      "That's Kage," Enzan yelled in recognition, the others looked at him in surprise. As it was, he was the only one who knew what Yami's navi looked like from the group... they hadn't met the white haired teens navi yet.

      "That means that Yami is out of the hospital," Dekao pointed out.

      "Where are they battling?" Meiru asked looking around; the rest also starting looking around for where the two humans controlling the navi's where.

      "This way," Enzan said running down the sidewalk, a feeling he didn't understand was going through him, but at that moment he knew where Yami was.

      The others traded looks a bit confused, but quickly ran after the dual haired teen.

      Finally Enzan came to stop at a street corner; a small smile came to his face as he saw Yami.

      The white haired boy while still looking frail from his rush to the hospital was looking ready to battle for hours, there was a stubborn set to his face also.

      His opponent was a girl his age and was stunningly beautiful, but something in him told him that the beauty was only skin deep... underneath she was someone you would rather not know.

      "This seems familiar..." Dekao said coming to stop behind him, this caused Enzan to pause ad look the scene over again. His eyes widened as he finally realized where exactly he had taken them too.

      'Here, why here of all places' Enzan thought is shock.

~

      Enzan stared across the busy road at Netto; the brown haired boy was looking at him. Neither of them wanted to loose a battle, not that Enzan believed that Netto and rockman could beat Blues and himself.

      He gave a silent snarl as the virus attacked, how dare it interfere with his battle.

      And then an instant later, netto and rockman began their first step towards a program advance.

~

      Enzan quickly shook himself out of memories; it wasn't a good time to go back in his memories... especially ones about a long lost friend.

      "Ryuuseigun," Yami said activating a chip, Enzan looked on in interest as Rockman used a hail of meteors against the other navi actually scoring some good hits.

      The good looking girl swore, she wasn't looking very happy for Enzan realized she had lost 100 health points in that attack... Yami was ahead.

***

      In another part of the city more people were watching the battle, because of a glitch of some type the whole city had the battle broadcasting on whatever system they were using.

      In a restaurant that served curry, a pink haired woman smirked as she watched the amazon like navi being beaten.

      "Still don't like her Madoi," a voice said, the pink haired womans smirk grew larger.

     "Not in the least Elec-hakushau," Madoi said, the man shrugged also watching the battle.

      "She will fail," a voice behind them said, startled they turned to see a dark skinned man sitting lotus style on the counter.

      "Mahajarama, she always fails against the brat," Elec-hakushau pointed out, Mahajarama seemed to smile slightly.

      "She is facing one she cannot beat, if she does not clear her anger away it will destroy her ability to be in WWW," Mahajarama told them.

      "We won't miss her," Madoi smirked, she hated the little brat Chun... there was just something about the brat that got under her skin.

      "Shouldn't we be cheering for Chun instead of Yami?" Elec-hakushau asked suddenly, they exchanged looks... even Mahajarama.(3)

      "Nah," they said.

***

      Yami nodded to himself as Kage scored another good hit, Mei lun lost at least another hundred health points.

      'Now for some fun' Kage thought; this battle was going as planned... easy. Chun may upgrade her navi but Mei lun never got any better, it seemed that Chun had run out of new plans... she always lost... too predictable.

      "Kage, its time to have some fun... she's battling like always and hasn't even bothered to get any new or better chips... since we met her," Yami said, his voice was a bit dry at the last part.

      Chun was good yes, but stupid also... she never got new chips... and her strategy sucked... but she was still better then many WWW he had faced over the years.

      "Bout time," Kage muttered, this battle was getting old fast... no matter how excited the people watching the battle playing on the screens thought it was exciting.

      "Jigoku," Yami said putting in the required chips, he saw Chun swear as Kage began to pummel Mei lun with a giant bouncing puck.

      "Yami," Chun shrieked, Yami blinked... he had forgotten he hated that move... he had used it before in a battle and battered Mei lun quite well.

      "What, you asked for it," Yami shouted over the street, Chun snarled.

      "That's it, I won't let you win this time... if I can't get Kage or win... I'll destroy him," her snarled, her pretty face became twisted and ugly in her anger.

      Yami gasped as suddenly Mei lun morphed... into a monster virus; this didn't look good, not good at all.

***

      Enzan gasped as the amazon like Navi suddenly became a virus; his heart beat heavily in his chest.

      While this scene was so different, it was also so very familiar.

      In his mind he could see himself facing Netto again, it was so like that day.

      It was as if the past was repeating itself in some ways, and teher was a virus this time like last time also.

      "Kage, time to end this game," Yami said in a serious voice, Enzan looked at the other teen wondering what he was planning.

***

      Yami took a deep breath, he hated to do this but he had too.

      Chun had done enough in his life; he would allow the girl to cause no more pain to his life... or death.

      "Chun, do you have anything to say before this match is over?" Yami asked, Chun sneered at him and continued to order her now virus navi to destroy Kage... Kage was easily dodging the viruses attack.

      "I hate you," Chun snarled, Yami sighed... he had hoped for something else.

      "Then it's time to end our battle once and for all," Yami said, he had realized that Chun had already forgotten that Mei lun was already very low on health.

      "Kage," he said in a serious voice, he pulled out three chips.

      He inserted them and activated them; he never saw the strange look cross Enzans face.

      "Program Advance," Kage and Yami said as one, they didn't bother saying the name of this program... it had been one that had been used before he had heard... six years ago to be exact.

***

      Enzan could only look in awe as the virus was cut in half and deleted, it wasn't the fact that the virus was deleted.

      It was something else.

      The defeat of the virus was almost a mirror image of the one six years ago... in fact even the positions of Yami and the girl were mirror images of the one six years ago.

      Very; dŽjˆ vu.

      "Why?" Chun asked, looking now at the word deleted on her PET, Mei lun was gone.

      "Yeas ago, you murdered in cold blood. You caused a plain to crash with three hundred people on it, all of them were dead," Yami said, Enzan gasped hearing this, the only plain that had crashed with 300 people had been done by WWW... this meant this girl had done it.

      "What does this have to do with you!" Chun snarled, Yami logged out his navi and started to walk away.

      "My adoptive father was on that plain, the one you and your navi crashed," Yami said coldly, then he walked away into the crowds and vanished.

      Enzan could only stare at what he had seen and heard, everything had just changed... and the feeling that something even bigger in the horizon was coming.

***

      As soon as yami left Chun quickly got her things and ran, she couldn't believe how stupid she had been... she had tried to delete Kage.

      Wily wouldn't be happy, hopefully he wouldn't do anything to bad as her punishment... but she would make it up.

      If she lived the night...

***

      "She failed," Wily mused, he smirked and turned to his computer and stared at the image depicted on it.

      "As expected of course," he mused, he felt someone behind him.

      "Kidnap the children Yami has become friends with, the price for there safety and freedom is for Yami to hand over Kage," Wily told the person, he heard soft dark laughter from the person.

      "And if Yami decides to play hero?" the person hissed out.

      "Then capture Yami himself and release the other children, we only need Kage and Yami really... Kage for what he was made for," Wily said.

      "And why do we need Yami?" the voice hissed out.

      "To see if something I think is true," Wily smirked, then the other was gone.

TBC

(1) I can't remember all of the Japanese names for the WWW navi's. Can someone send me the names, along with their English names. I can then put them in the fic and know who I'm writing about.

(2) Lol, someone pointed out that Meiru actually had pink hair, so here is the correction.

(3) Geeze, some support from Chun's teammates. Heh, she must have annoyed them a lot since they joined.

Next Time: Chapter Seven: My Past, my sorrow

Enzan talks to Yami and learns of his past, also who is the person Wily spoke too... Things are about to become a lot more interesting.
