"How come you didn't tell me," Netto whined.

"Because, I wanted it to be a surprise," Mel said smiling but then she saw Enzan and her expression went blank and she seemed to shut down. Netto blinked, "Hey you okay."

"Fine," she said glancing at Enzan.

Enzan noticed and raised an eyebrow, "What?"

"Nothing, I just get really nervous around new people," Mel said playing with her bangs.

"Mabey you should get to know each other then," Dr.Hikari said smiling, "You don't want to be nervous on a mission. In fact that can be your mission today, get to know each other. Netto you already seem to be aquatinted with Melanie mabey you should go to so it's not to awkward."

"Okay this'll be fun," the brunette said grinning.

"I'll only go because I have to," Enzan said, "It is a mission apparently."

"Oh lighten up Enzan, mabey we can have a Netbattle," Netto suggested.

Enzan's expression brightened. He enjoyed Netbattleing. If she were any good this would be interesting. Of course she's good he thought she is a Net saver. "Lets go then," Netto said happily grabbing both Mel's and Enzan's arms and dragging them out the door. Dr.Hikari smiled and shock his head. Netto could be immature at times.

"So do you want to go to the arcade and try to have a battle. This time I go first," Netto suggested.

"Mabey are navis would like to get to know each other first," Mel said not wanting to netbattle at the moment. She still wanted to get to know this Enzan fellow, "They really didn't get a chance before and I don't want Flow to get tired."

"Yeah okay, You too Enzan," Netto said nudging the white haired boy. They all plugged their navis into a near by port and sat down at a bench.

"So Mel, how did you get good enough to be a Net saver if no one you knew owned a navi," Netto asked trying to make conversation.

"I netbattle with my little sister Lea all the time. She's pretty good for a little kid," Mel said starring into Enzan's cerulean eyes.

"What," Enzan blurted getting quite annoyed.

"I'm soul gazing," she said lazily.

"What's soul gazing," asked Netto.

"You know that saying how the eyes are the window to the soul," she said, she had this weird nobody's home look on her face, "Well I found that if you concentrate hard enough you can enter a persons soul."

"Wow that's weird. So are you in the beyond," Netto asked making a dumb ghostly voice.

Mel blinked, "You seem to keep a lot of things hidden, you need to open up more you know that," she asked bluntly, "It's not good for your soul. It will slowly but surely melt away if you don't."

Enzan seemed to be in shock. How could this girl think she knew so much about him by just starring at his eyes. He quickly recovered and tried to act like what she said wouldn't matter at any point in his life.

MEANWHILE

"So you're Blues right, I'm Flow," Flow asked the tall red navi before her.

"Yes," he said crossing his arms over his chest.

"Oh come on no need to be all stiff loosen up," she said smiling.

"Hmph," was all Blues said frowning.

Rockman just watched figuring it would be interesting. "You know what if every one on this planet acted like you they'd all be stiffs as a matter of fact," she said and crossed her arms and frowned.

Blues raised an unseen eyebrow. He rolled his shoulders Flow did the same. "Stop that," they said in unison.

"I said stop that."

"I'm warning you."

"Grrrrr."

Blues formed sword on his arm. Flow did the same. Blues charged and so did Flow. They dueled for a while meeting each other's moves perfectly each time. After a while Rockman started trying to get them to stop because Blues seemed to be giving each strike more and more power. Flow was doing the same. "Guys stop there's no need to fight," Rockman said worried that Flow was getting in over her head.

"She won't stop copying me," Blues said, he sounded like a little kid. Rockman snickered.

"See know your starting to loosen up," Flow said smirking. She finally broke threw Blues' defense and got a good slash in his shoulder. Nothing a big one just enough to get him to stop.

"I don't believe it…..Blues got beat….by a girl," Rockman gaped.

Enzan on hearing this jumped up and pulled out his PET, "WHAT!"

Blues him self was still in shock him self so Rockman had to explain, "You see Flow was copying Blues and he got mad so they started to battle using swords with her and she beat him," Rockman said hurriedly.

Netto grinned smugly, "Well that blows your reputation out the window. Whoosh." Netto made whooshing gestures to emphasize his point.

"Shut up Netto," Enzan said still looking at the PET, "Blues why did you start with out me."

"I'm sorry Enzan-sama I don't know what came over me. She just got under my skin," Blues said looking like he was recovering from the shock. (A/N: I couldn't help it. I always wanted to see him get beat. Gets bricked by Blues and Enzan. Hey I'm sorry if I kicked your pride in the.. insert body part of choice here… I love you but hehehe. Blues and Enzan walk away shacking their heads. They'll get over it.)

Enzan sweat dropped a little. "Ahhh are you pouting because my little Flow beat your big strong Blues," Mel said making voices.

"No. Just surprised that's all," Enzan regaining his usual I'm-better-then-you attitude.

"Sure," Mel said rolling her eyes, just then her PET beeped.

"Your mom is on the line," Flow said. She had evacuated to the safety of her PET before Blues could regain his senses.

"Hi dear it's almost dinner time, Oh who are your friends," the woman asked looking at Enzan and Netto who had just gathered around Mel to see the caller.

"This is Netto and Enzan. There both Net savers like me," Mel said pointing from boy to boy and then to her self.

"Oh would they like to come to dinner? I've made way to much for just the three of us," Mel's mother asked.

"I don't know how about it guys," she said looking up at the two boys.

"Sure I'm starving," Netto said glad to get some food in his belly.

"Okay," Enzan said.

A/N: Well what do you think? Review for more.
