By now people are probably asking why hasn't Rockman popped up more, don't worry he will soon enough. But right now I have a lot more to do before I reunite Rockman and Netto/Yami.

Warning I don't know, much about crossfusion. The television stations here still haven't gotten to those episodes yet. So if I get something wrong I'm sorry. But I did finally find a clip from a Jap episode and saw crossfusion in action.

This chapter is dedicated to 'Sword of the Phoenix' who didn't get 'too' annoyed at my bugging her to update her fics... and here is the update you wanted.

Ghost from the past

Chapter Nine: Fallen Angel

      In another part of a building something began to activate; it had actually been there awhile but at that moment there was enough energy to bring it to human visual level.

      It glowed eerily; it was a dimensional area... one abandoned due to the fact it was slightly buggy.

      "..." Both said suddenly, Yami looked around startled as a strange energy came to his attention... it felt familiar... but of what he didn't know.

      "A dimensional area," Kadis suddenly sneered, Yami's eyes widened. He had heard of them before, they were rare but there was documented proof they were real, but... why did the feeling of it feel familiar.

      "Heh... this could be fun," the man sneered.

      "Wha... what do you mean?" Yamai asked confused, Kadis laughed darkly.

      "We can end this wit a nice little fight, one that I'll easily win," Kadis smirked.

      "Give me Kage and I'll battle you easily," Yami snarled, Kadis only laughed.

      "Nice try kid, I have two chips to crossfuse with navi's... you'll have to use a common navi... lucky I have one that I just use for email," Kadis sneered.

      'I'll be slaughtered' Yami blanched with fear, he had read about the process of crossfusion. Very dangerous if one wasn't close, and even then it was extremely dangerous. But to use a common navi against a custom style, was suicide.

      "No way will I fight you' I'll be destroyed in an instant!" Yami yelled, Kadis who was evidentially just lost the last of his sanity (hey, he could easily kill Yami this way) leapt forward too fast for Yami to resist and began to drag Yami though the building.

      'Enzan' Yami thought turning as best he could to look at his friends, Enzan was still and pale... the rest he wasn't able to see.

      Finally they arrived at where Kadis was leading him, Yamis eyes widened slightly as he saw a strange glowing object in the room.

      "What is that," he said confused, Kadis smirked.

      "The object that's going to give us our dimensional field," Kadis smirked.

      It was at that moment a chill went over the teens body, he then gave a strangled cry as hexagonal shapes objects appeared and began to build around them... moment later the two found themselves surrounded by a dome made of the hexagons that glowed a creepy purple color. Everything had strange look to it, net like... this was the dimensional field.

      "Amazing things dimensional fields, created by Nebula... while the ones containing nebula navi's are all destroyed these fields are still appearing," Kadis smirked, Yami shivered.

      "No way out," Yami muttered darkly, he didn't like this and since it looked like the dome was all inside the building no one would notice it.

      "Just how I like it," Kadis sneered.

      "And now for the fun part kiddo," Kadis said, he then pulled out two PET's. One was obviously Kadis custom navi while the other was a normal one that he would make Yami use.

      'Can you even crossfuse with a normal navi?' Yami thought with a frown, the few instances he had heard of crossfusion happening it had always been with a custom navi.

      "This is yours to use," Kadis said tossing him the second one, he caught it without thinking and frowned at the image of the green boring looking normal navi in it.

      "Actually, I think I'll use a different navi," Yami said, then before Kadis could say anything Yami head butted him sending his sprawling a few feet.

      "You little brat," Kadis snarled getting up, but Yami smirked at the man and held a certain object up... Kage's PET.

      "Sorry, you left yourself way too open so I just had to take him back," Yami smirked, Kadis looked on enraged then also smirked.

      "My, this will make it interesting... I won't even ask to be paid for this," The man said, Yami frowned hearing the paid part but decided to ignore it for now.

      "Let's do this, ready Kage," Yami asked his navi.

      "Hai Yami-kin," Kage said.

      "Crossfusion!" both Yami and Kage shouted as Yami slotted a very special chip in, a flash of light filled the area around Yami ina dome shape as it began.

      "Crossfusion," Kadis and his navi shouted also slotting the same crossfusion chip in, light surrounded Kadis also.

      It had been a boring day, very boring. Rain: cloudy... misty weather out in the real world as far as he could tell. If you're asking him why its hard to tell, well he was a navi.

      Rockman sighed; he had nothing to do.

      'Netto-kun, if only we were together again' Rockman thought sadly, the blue bomber didn't feel complete without his twin.

      It was at that instant Rockman felt a jolt of strange energy, yet it was also very familiar.

      "Netto-kun..." Rockman whispered, concentrating on the very weakened bond between the two of them he to his surprise began to get small flashes of what was going on where Netto was.

      He by now knew that Yami was Netto, but was happening was a surprise... he stopped himself from feeling jealous.

      Yami was crossfusing, and the only Navi Yami had was the one he called Kage... Netto was fusing with a navi other then him.

      "Netto-kun please come out of this safe, were so close to being together again... I can't bare to loose you again," Rockman whispered, his hands clenched slightly.

      "And if you die, I'll follow you so we can stay together," Rockman whispered, if any who knew the blue navi heard this thew would have been shocked. But Rockman was desperate; he would do anything to stay with his twin.

      Yami kept his eyes opened as crossfusion happened, as he watched Kages armor appeared over him like puzzle pieces. But that only covered him some. Then the gloves, boots and Kage swords appeared on him. Then Kage's Void symbol appeared on his forehead causing his helmet to appear, with that in place the rest of Kage's suit began to appear.

      'I can't let Kadis win, Enzan and the others need help, and I'm there only chance' Yami thought as the process started to come to an end.

      'I can't loose, I can't... I still have to find out who I am... nothing must stop me from that' Yami thought anger over taking him, suddenly Kages symbol glowed and his suit changed once again.

      Darkness overtook both Yami's and Kages minds.

      Kadis continued to sneer as he fused with his navi Akushuman (1), soon he was wearing Akushuman green and yellow armor, his head was covered by a mostly yellow helmet with the word STINK across it and over his face was a gas mask. Can anyone figure out what this guys special ability was... it's pretty easy. Last of all was some weris cannon weapon attached to each arm.

      Kadis/Akushuman looked around as the light of crossfusion vanished, the human-navi waited for Yamis crossfusion to end... what surprised them that it should have ended by now.

      "Finally," Akushuman said as the light faded away.

      "Wha..." Akushuman said as the figure was revealed; what he saw he had most definitely not expected.

      It looked like kage, the same armor with the void symbol on the helmet. But that is where the similarities ended. The face was yami's, but instead of pale sapphire eyes endless voids seemed to stare at him, you had to look away after a few seconds. Silver hair slipped down his back in silken waves and ended at his waist.

      Instead of Katanas he weilded a huge staff that was pitch black, energy angel wings spread from his back. But what startled him; was the evil smile on the figures face.

      "Who are you, what happened... that wasn't a normal crossfusion!" Akushuman demanded; the figure laughed sending chills down Akushumans back. It wasn't evil; it was the fact there was no humanity behind it.

      "Me, I'm the one you after," the figure said voice void of any emotion, on his helmet the void symbol glowed with a strange light.

      Enzan woke slowly and painfully, slowly his sapphire eyes opened.

      Once he was able to focus through the pain he looked around, to his startlement and also fear he could not spot Yami or the man anywhere.

      "Yami..." he whispered, weakly he sat up pressing his hands against his wound to hopefully stop the blood flow.

      Slowly he got up and began to walk, a slight sixth sense guided him, what it led him to he had to gasp.

      "A dimensional field," he whispered, he watched as the two began to fuse. The first one was Kadis who reappeared dressed in some weird navi garb, then he only had to wait for Yami to appear.

      Then it faded, Enzans eyes widened... that was not what was suppose to happen through crossfusion... this wasn't suppose to happen. He then realized that he was missing what they wee saying, he quickly listened to what they were saying.

      "Me, I'm the one you after," the figure said voice void of any emotion, on his helmet the void symbol glowed with a strange light.

      Enzan shivered, he knew that was Yami... but it didn't feel like it was Yami or even Kage at the moment.

      "Who are you," Kadis sneered, Enzan wondered what Kadis navi was called since it definitely was a custom one.

      "You may call me Kukan, the angel of nothingness" the figure said, Enzan shivered once again... for Kukan was more like a fallen angel with the vibes he let off. Anyway, didn't Kukan mean void?

      "Before we fight I might as well tell you what exactly I am, you see you put Kage ands Yami is a strange position. They didn't want to loose, and since Kage is a special type of navi a certain program was activated during Crossfusion. That was me by the way, now you face me instead of them," Kukan sneered.

      'Great, just great' Enzan thought; he didn't know if this angel crossfusion program thing was good news or bad... and he wondered how Yami was since he wasn't in charge of the body.

      Kukan narrowed his eyes at the other crossfused navi, while he may not be Yami or Kage he did know what this fight was on. He had to win or innocents would die.

      'I may be only activated for a short time, but I'll make it count' Kukan thought, with that the angel navi shot forward at unbelievable speeds. Akushuman was slammed backwards painfully.

      "Stinkbomb!" Akushuman shouted shooting his cannons, Kukan managed to avoid them and wrinkled his nose in distaste at the horrible spells coming from the explosions.

      'So like his name he has stink attacks' Kukan thought, He frowned barely as he felt Yami and Kage trying to wake up.

      'Have to hurry' Kukan thought.

      "Staff of Judgement," Kukan shouted activating his attack, his staff glowed and began to pull things in like a black hole.

      "Garbage Thrust!" Akushuman shouted. (Firehedgehog sweatdrops, maybe I should ask other people to make up the attacks). Garbage speared down from the sky, Kukan dodged them and sucked otehrs into his judgement attack. He then stopped that one; it looked like with Akushuman he would only suck in the weird garbage attacks.

      Suddenly: Kukans arm morphed into a huge sword, he smirked at Akushuman.

      "Nothing personal," he said, he dodged forward again and Akushuman dodged out of the way just as he thought he would. For he wasn't aiming at Akushuman, but at the object behind him. His powerful sword attack that was powered up by the program he was sliced through it like a hot knife like butter, it exploded.

      Yet before the crossfusions faded as the dimensional field faded he struck, Akushuman gasped as Kukans staff slammed against his chest painfully causing him to slam into the ground.

      Finally the dimensional field vanished; Kukan smiled as he faded away. He had won; what happened next was up to Yami and Kage.

      Kadis fell to his knees with a gasp; he had unfused with his navi just in time. While his navi had been deleted he was okay.

      Breath fell heavily from him as he regained his bearing, looking up he shivered at the form of the strange crossfused form of Yami and Kage.

      'What is that freaky angel' Kadis thought, he knew Wily wanted Kage... but he had to wonder... did the angel have anything to do with it.

      Yami fell to the ground with a groan, his entire body felt exhausted and strange. Looking down to his hands he sighed in relief, it was his PET and in it was a confused Kage.

      "Yami-kun... what happened, the last thing I remember is the process of being crossfused?' the navi asked, Yami frowned.

      "I... I don't remember either," Yami said softly, he didn't like the feeling of not remembering things... after all he didn't remember anything about his past... except for a few small things.

      "We'll work on it later," Kage said, Yami nodded then gasped as he remembered some very familiar facts.

      "We have to get everyone to the hospital fast, quickly get hold of the hospital," Yami cried to his navi. Kage nodded and quickly activated the phone part of the PET.

      "Can I help you?" a pretty nurse asked over the video part of the phone.

      "My friends and myself were attacked, I'm fine but there all badly hurt... and one is in critical condition," Yami cried quickly, this quickly got her attention.

      "Give us the location quick, we'll send a few ambulances over quick," she said, quickly he did and the contact ended.

      Time seemed to go very slowly; as Yami waited for the ambulances to arrive, he stayed by Enzans side since the other teen was the worst hurt.

      He didn't even notice Kadis creep away, but part of him knew that Wily would probably have the man on deaths row pretty soon.

      "Yami..." Enzan said weakly, Yami smiled down at the other teen... his friend.

      "Yeah?" he asked.

      "Thanks," Enzan said, Yami blinked in surprise.

      "For what?" he asked confused.

      "For being the friend you were suppose to be," Enzan whispered in a strange tone, then before Yami can reply Enzan drifted into unconsciousness.

      Yami stayed confused till the ambulances arrived and placed his pale hurt friends inside, he put his confusion aside... he would think about it later. Soon he himself was in am ambulance.

      Now... it was the rush to the hospital.

      Rockman sighed in relief as he felt the battle end, also the feeling that someone was crossfused had ended.

      'I wonder how it went' Rockman thought with worry, he knew that the person he had linked through was Yami.

      Or should he say Netto, he let another sigh out at the confusion he was feeling. Now that the battle was over he could stop worrying of Yami being defeated, now he had to worry about Yami/Netto being hurt still.

      'Wait, Netto and myself could speak telepathically before years ago... before our bond was blocked. Could I do it again, to make sure he's all right' Rockman thought, he readied himself... there was only one way to find out.

      He took a deep breath; then the blue navi began to concentrate.

      (Yami?) Rockman questioned with his mind, for a moment he felt confusion, surprise... then a bit of recognition.

      ((Rockman?)) Came a familiar voice, it was Yami's voice but he could now feel Netto in it.

      (Thank goodness, I felt that you were in trouble earlier... and I was only now able to get through to you... I actually had no idea if I'd be able to link up to you) Rockman explained happily, he felt a bit of confusion come from the white haired boy.

      ((How are you able to do this, and have you done this before?")) Yami asked curious.

      (Well, I can't explain this at the moment. But I have only done it with one other person before, that would be Netto-kun, my operator who vanished years ago) Rockman explained, Yami felt thoughtful.

      ((I see)) Yami said.

      (Tell me what has you so troubled?) Rockman asked, then Yami told him and he felt horrible shock at what had happened and anger at what Kadis had done.

      (That's Terrible!) Rockman cried.

      ((I know)) Yami sighed.

      (Yami, could you do something for me...) Rockman suddenly asked, he felt Yami's curiosity.

      ((What is it?)) Yami/Netto asked.

      (Take a blood test, you said you're from Japan... this might be a great chance to use it to find out who you are) Rockman suggested; he felt surprise from Yami.

      ((I guess, in the star I couldn't have one due to all the chemicals in my body, they should have dispersed enough for one now)) Yami said thoughtfully.

      (Then do it, find out who you are) Rockman said.

      ((I will then)) Yami said with new determination, at that point Yami allows the bond to fade enough so they couldn't talk.

      'Soon I'll have Netto again' he thought with a smile, hopefully soon he would be with his brother again.

TBC

(1) Akushu- this translates to stink... so his name is stinkman... heh funny.

Next time: As Yami's friends heal in the aftermath of kidnapping and battle, Yami takes a blood test to hopefully find out who he is and why he has such a link with the navi known as rockman. Truths will soon be revealed. Chapter ten: Bonds that Bind.

Hi everyone, I hoped you like it. By the way, I won't spoil what things will happen next chapter; you'll just have to wait till the next chapter. Unless of course your the AOL buddies I RP with and help each other with stories.
