Chapter 1- How it all begins
POV- Lan Hikari
I don't think I've ever feared for my life before. I don't think I ever had a reason to. I always had Megaman with me. He always protected me and made me feel better when I was down. Most people think of navis as just bits of data, but they're wrong. Navis have feelings just like anyone else. And people are just plain blind if they can't see that.
Anyways, I think this is the first time I've ever had to fear for my life. It started less than an hour ago with a simple email.
//Flashback//
"Lan, you've got an email." Megaman said to me. You don't know how relieved I was to get an inturruption from my homework. I quickly looked over at my computer where Megaman currently was.
"Ok, open it please." I instructed. Megaman nodded and opened it. I went over to computer and leaned against the desk and scanned over the email. A few certain words caught my eye right away that told me everything I needed to know. "Sci-Lab...intruding navi...Shademan..." Both Megaman and I had read the email by now.
"I'll head over right now!" Megaman exclaimed. I nodded and Megaman logged onto the internet. I grabbed my now empty PET and took off towards the metro. The metro was, like always, packed. I barely managed to get on the train to Sci-Lab before the doors closed. I sighed in relief and watied for the metro to get to Sci-Lab. Have you ever noticed that when you really want to get somewhere quickly, it seems to take forever? Well after an eternity (actually only ten minutes), I arrived underneath Sci-Lab. I ran as quick as I could up the stairs. Once I made it up the stairs, I could immediately tell that something was wrong. Normally, there were scientists running around, exchanging data or something like that. But...there was no one. I got a sense of danger pretty quickly. Most people think that I'm so dense, I don't sense things like that, but I do. My suspicions increased when everything in the room shifted color, as if someone was playing with a color switch. I recognized what was happening.
"A dimensional area!" I gasped. I sincerily hoped that either Megaman would show up really soon or that an enemy navi wouldn't show up. Actually, a mixture of both would be even better. Unfortunately, my false hopes were dashed pretty quickly.
"That's right, little human. Now, I think it's time that you payed for what you and your navi did to me!" I gulped and spun around to find myself face-to-face with Shademan.
//End Flashback//
So yea, that's kindof why I'm in this predicament. Before I could even blink, Shademan had vanished and I found myself pinned against a wall. I'm normally not intiminated by many things, but staring into the black eyes of a net navi vampire could definately be intiminating.
"You know...I was planning of killing you quickly but...I can't help but wonder...how much energy can I extract from a human?" Shademan hissed to me. My eyes widened as I struggled to get out of Shademan's grip. Shademan looked amused. Well, you can't say I didn't try. However, Shademan's grip on me remained strong. Shademan's eyes glowed and I felt myself losing all feeling in my body. He had paralyzed me!
Once I managed to get over my shock, I saw Shademan's head slowly heading towards my neck.
"Just relax. This won't take long." Ok, THAT was supposed to reassure me?! Yea right! Now, if I wasn't paralyzed, I would be fighting Shademan with everything I had. Unfortunately, I couldn't. I felt Shademan's fangs pierce the side of my neck as well as my energy draining at an alarming rate. Black spots started to block my vision.
'Megaman..please hurry here soon...' I thought to myself before passing out.
//Third Person//
Shademan streched hiw wings wide as new energy flowed through him. He let got of the human.
"Get away from the person, Shademan!" Shademan turned around to find a very familiar blue navi aiming his buster at him. Megaman obviously hadn't seen that the person was his own operator.
"Oh really? Well then, you'll have to defeat me first!" Megaman quickly got into a fighting stance.
"My pleasure!" In the back of his mind, Megaman hoped that Lan was alright.
"Fine then! Supersonic wave!" Shademan released a round of supersonic waves. Megaman quickly avoided them and fired his buster. Bats flew from inside Shademan and hit Megaman. Megaman winced and charged up his buster. Megaman let out quite a few charged buster shots. Shademan was severely damaged by the shots.
"No matter...I have fufilled my mission...I have retrieved the data..." Shademan dissapeared as he logged out.
"Wait!" Megaman reached towards where Shademan had just been, but was too late. Megaman sighed and then remembered the person Shademan had attacked. Megaman quickly ran over to the person who was laying face down on the ground. He gently turned the person over only to realize he was looking that the unconsious form of his operator!

Chapter 2- Recovery and Dreaming
Doctors were running back and forth in the area. No, they weren't treating just one patient, but many. All ranging from a different variety of injuries and illnesses. However, their newest patient was a strange case. His name was Lan Hikari. All that really appeared to be wrong with him was a severe deficiency of energy. Though, that could be an extremely bad thing. If there wasn't enough energy, the heart might not have enough energy to beat and thus sending him into cardiac arrest. And the doctors wanted to make sure that didn't happen. They were pumping all sorts of different things to make sure he kept breathing. Also to help, they had all sorts of medical navis watching over his important stats. Even his own navi was helping out with the monitoring.
It had been about four hours since Lan was first brought in. At first, the doctors had been a bit baffled as to what had happened. But after a few tests, the doctors were easily able to tell that something had drained his energy. What is was, Lan's father nor navi were saying.
"I can assure you, Dr Hikari, he should be alright. He just needs time to recover." Dr Shorin said reassuringly. Dr Hikari sighed and nodded.
"I hope you're alright." He said more to himself than the doctor.
"Don't worry, we're doing everything we can for him." The female doctor said.
"Well, can I at least see him?" Dr Hikari asked, obviously concerned for his son. Dr Shorin nodded. Dr Hikari went into the room and looked around. Like all hospital rooms, everything in it was plain white except for the machines, which were black. In the middle of the room was a bed with, you guessed it, white covers. In the covers, surrounded by different machines, was Lan. He looked slightly dwarfed by the large bed and machines. Right on the table next to Lan was his PET and Megaman. Megaman, like Dr Hikari, looked extremely worried.
At the sound of the door, Megaman looked away from the figure in the bed and to whomever was entering. He seemed a bit relieved to see it was only Dr Hikari.
"Oh, it's you Papa." He said. Dr Hikari smiled weakly and nodded. He sat down in a chair next to the bed and picked up the PET so he could talk to Megaman better.
"Any change?" Dr Hikari asked. Megaman frowned and shook his head.
"None yet. I just hope he'll be alright..." Megaman sighed. He couldn't tell how many times he had sighed, but he had to be close to about at least 20 in the last five minutes.
"Thankfully, the doctors said that he should be alright. It's more of that he needs to regain his energy." Dr Hikari said, looking back over at Lan.
"He normally seems full of energy if you tell him he's having curry for dinner." Megaman said, trying to lighten the mood. Dr Hikari chuckled slightly.
"Where's the curry?" Dr Hikari and Megaman turned and sweatdropped slightly to see that Lan had finally woken up with the mention of curry.
"Wow...I'll have to try that more often." Megaman stated. Dr Hikari's mouth curved into a small smile. Then he focused on his son.
"Are you alright, Lan?" Dr Hikari asked. Lan looked over at him.
"Papa? W-where am I and what on earth happened? I feel tired as heck..." Well, at least Lan didn't have any sort of amnesia. That was a relief to both Dr Hikari and Megaman.
"You were attacked by Shademan, Lan." Dr Hikari said. Lan tried to sit up, but fell back onto his bed from lack of energy.
"Oh yea...that would explain why I feel really tired. Hey! Where's Megaman?!"
"Just rest, Lan. I'm right here." Megaman reassured the brunette. Dr Hikari handed Lan the PET, so he could talk freely to Megaman.
"I'll be back later, Lan. I just wanted to make sure you were alright. Get some sleep." Dr Hikari instructed. Lan nodded and Dr Hikari left the room. A few minutes later, Lan fell asleep with the PET on his chest. The nurse who came in to check on Lan smiled when she saw that both Lan and Megaman were asleep.
//A few hours later
Lan's POV//
I grinned when I heard the news.
"WHOO HOO!!!" I cheered a bit loudly, earning myself a bit of a strict look from some nearby nurses. My doctor, Dr Shorin, had just told me that I could leave later on tonight. So some people would wonder why I was so excited and I have to say that hospitals are just plain boring. Just ask anyone who has ever stayed in one.
"Calm down Lan or else you'll tire yourself out and you'll have to stay even longer!" Megaman softly chided. I sighed.
"I know, I know. It's just so boring here." I said in my own protection.
"Well, you were attacked by Shademan. You're lucky they're not making you stay longer!" Man, Megaman really knew how to ruin my fun.
"Oh shush you." I said to him, a wry look on my face. Before Megaman could come back with a retort, another nurse came in and pushed me back onto the bed.
"Hey!!"
"Rest." She demanded. I pouted slightly.
"But I'm getting released today!" I argued. The nurse had a very strict look on her face which shut me up right away.
"Yes, but until then, you are still under my care. Now get some sleep!" So that I didn't get on her bad side any more than I already had, I quickly laid back in the bed. I heard Megaman snickering slightly and I sent him a glare that said 'shut up'. He quickly did so. Even though I could have sworn I wasn't tired, I fell asleep pretty quickly.
DREAM
I was staring at my computer. Megaman wasn't there. I was just staring at the background. I felt a longing to be there. I brushed my fingers over the jack in port. It somehow felt oddly warm. Suddenly, a blinding white light filled my vision. I closed my eyes to hopefuly block out the light, but to no avail. The light slowly faded and I was able to open my eyes. Only, I wasn't in my bedroom anymore, I was-
END DREAM
My eyes snapped open as I tried to regain my breath. What was that dream? And even more, what was the light and where had I been? That place felt so familiar yet I was positive I had never been there. But where was it?
"Lan? Are you okay?" I glanced over at my PET, which was on the table next to me. I nodded.
"Yea, why?" I asked him. Ok, so I knew he was going to ask about the dream I had, but how was I supposed to explain it to him. 'Oh don't worry Megaman, I just had a dream about a white light and then appearing somewhere else'. Yea right. He'd probably think I was delusional or something.
"You looked like you were having a bad dream." Megaman said, looking very concerned.
"I can't remember anything...I dunno." A big lie. A VERY big lie. We were spared from any more uncomfortable conversation when the door opened. Papa and Dr Shorin walked in.
"Hello Lan. How are you feeling?" Dr Shorin asked with a smile on her face. I smiled back.
"Good." I said.
"That's excellent. If you don't mind, we're going to perform a few more tests and then you'll be free to go home. Only, you need to sleep for at least 11 hours per night. I've already talked to your father about it." She said. I nodded a bit happily. I had no problem whatsoever of sleeping for 11 hours. In fact, it sounded quite fun.
"Ok." I nodded. After a few more tests, which only took about ten minutes, I was free to leave, which I was only too happy to do. I was quiet when I was on the metro with papa, which wasn’t really like me. I really hoped that Papa wouldn’t ask me what happened. I didn’t really want to think about it. Finally, the silence became too much for me to handle.
“So Papa, have you been busy a lot at work?” What a stupid question to ask a head scientist, I know. But at least it was conversation.
“Yes I have. We’ve been trying to find a way for matter and data to be compatible with each other.” Papa said. I was confused.
“You mean a way for real things and data to work together?” I tried to find a way to restate that so I could understand it.
“Yes and no. You see Lan, we’re trying to find a way for data to exist in a physical body without the aid of a computer.” Papa explained. I was in complete shock. I voiced my thoughts aloud.
“And that’s possible?” Papa nodded.
“Yes, but there are side effects. Those effects are things like dizziness, blackouts and other. Thankfully nothing fatal.” I let out a sigh of relief I didn’t even know I was holding. But it sounded so unreal. The ability for data to exist in a physical body? How odd. Finally, the metro arrived at the ACDC station. Papa and I headed home. When I did get home, I found myself in a very tight embrace from Mom.
“M-Mom! I can’t breathe!!” Mom was currently talk a mile a minute about how worried she was about me. It was really nice and all, but I was finding it a bit hard to breathe. Papa quickly came to my rescue.
“Dear, he’ll end back up in the hospital if you don’t let go.” Papa said with an amused smile.
“Oh! I’m sorry, Lan. I’m just so relieved you’re alright.” Does everyone know what happened? On the good side, Mom finally let me catch my breath. She then went back into her mother mode.
“Now, go get some sleep!” I sweat dropped slightly at the sudden change. Now wanted to make her angry, I quickly headed upstairs. As I headed upstairs, I felt a bit odd. My mind felt foggy like I couldn’t think straight. I must have been really tired or something. I checked the time once I got to my room. It was seven at night. When have I ever been tired at seven? Oh well...I don’t really want to think about it. I changed into my pajamas and jacked Megaman into the computer in case he wanted to wander the internet. I crawled into bed and flicked off the light.
“‘Night, Megaman.”
“Good night, Lan.”

Wow, so you're Aki Kochou from Fanfiction.net? What a coinkidink! XD I have an account at FF.net too, but I only have one story up currently. I'm planning more, though. I'm Yian-San there also. ^^
Um...about the fanfic. I must say, it's rather well written, with only the exception of a spelling error or two. It's interesting how part of it is in Netto's POV, and you also keep him very in-character. (I tend to overemphasize the dense-ness in Netto. sweatdrop ) Well, keep up the good work. I'm looking forward to more. ^^

POV- Lan Hikari
Chapter 3- How am I going to explain this?
Warnings: Future Lan/Chaud shounen-ai
Consciousness slowly returned to my waking mind. I yawned and opened my eyes. My vision was blurry so I blinked. Once my vision cleared, I looked over at my computer for the time. It was 11 in the morning. Wait a minute! 11 AM! How on earth did I manage to sleep for 16 hours!
“Hey there Lan. Finally woke up, did you?” A teasing voice said from my computer. I then noticed that Megaman was watching me from my computer. I grinned at my navi.
“Yep. Thank goodness it’s a Saturday, huh?” I said. Megaman laughed.
“Yea. Hey, your mom told me she wants you to head downstairs when you wake up.” Megaman informed me. I blinked in surprise. What did Mom want? Well, only one way to find out I suppose.
“Alright. Thank you Megaman.” Megaman smiled and nodded. I stood up and changed into my normal orange vest, white shirt and black shorts. I then slipped my blue headband on. I turned back to my computer and found that Megaman had already transferred to my PET. I grabbed my PET and slipped it into its holster and went downstairs. I was surprised to see that it was completely dark.
“Hey, what’s…going on…? Mom…?” I called out. Something just didn’t seem right. Suddenly, the lights came on and assaulted my vision. I winced but gasped when my eyes adjusted to the light.
“W-what…?”
“WELCOME BACK LAN!” I was startled to see that all of my friends: Maylu, Dex, Yai, Tory and even Chaud were standing downstairs. There was a giant homemade banner that said exactly what my friend had just yelled.
“What on earth…?” I barely realized that I had said that out loud.
“We decided to have a party to celebrate you coming out of the hospital!” Maylu said, smiling at me. I found myself returning the smile.
“Wow! Thanks everyone!” I exclaimed with an even brighter smile. Just then, my mom, who was standing by the kitchen, spoke up.
“Now, why don’t you get something to eat before you start having fun? I made all of your favorites!” Mom said and quickly retreated into the kitchen. I was about to follow when Megaman interrupted me.
“Hey Lan! Jack me into the stereo!” I smiled and jacked Megaman into the stereo where I assumed that my friends’ navis were waiting. I stored my PET back into its holster and then followed my mom into the kitchen. When I did, I noticed one of the items of food my mom made.
“CURRY!”
ooOooOooOooOoo
After some delicious curry, I went back into the living room where my friends were either sitting on the couch or in a chair nearby while music was playing in the background. I sat down on the couch in between Chaud and Maylu.
“So what are you guys talking about?” I asked.
“We’re talking about what stat we think is most important: power, speed or defense. I personally think that power is important, but defense is even more so.” Tory filled me in.
“Nah! No way! The only way to win is with power!” Dex said from his place on a nearby chair.
“And we can see why you keep losing.” Chaud remarked wryly. I found myself hard pressed trying to stifle a laugh.
“What’s your opinion of the matter, Lan?” Chaud asked and yet again, I was surprised. Chaud never called me by my first name very often, so it was always a surprise when he did.
“Hm..” I thought about it for a moment. “Speed. If you’re fast enough, it works as a good defense. It also adds a lot of power to attacks, too.” By the end of my explanation, everyone, excluding Chaud, was staring at me in shock. Chaud simply looked amused.
“What? I’m not as dense as I might seem at times.” I said in my own defense. Chaud smirked.
“Not a bad thought Hikari.” A wave of disappointment washed through me. But why? I think I must be tired or something. Finally, it looked like my friends had snapped out of their shock.
“That is a good idea, Lan. But how did you come up with it?” Maylu asked.
“Mostly from fighting against Protoman a lot.” I heard a slightly snort from Chaud and my other friends snickered. However, I heard Megaman laughing hysterically from the stereo’s computer. I pouted slightly.
“Come on, it’s not THAT funny, is it?” I asked. Even Chaud was now laughing.
“Yes it is!” They all said at once.
“Nice to know I have such caring friends…” I muttered dryly.
ooOooOooOooOoo
It was about six o’clock in the evening and the party had ended. Currently, I’m sitting by myself at the park. I didn’t even bring Megaman with me, and that’s not something that happens often. The reason being that I’m afraid it might hurt his feelings if I left him behind and normally, I like the company. But right now, I just want to be by myself so that I can think.
What is wrong with me? Why did it disappoint me so much that Chaud doesn’t really call me by my individual name? I need to stop thinking about this. It’s giving me a headache.
“What’s bothering you, Hikari?” Well, speak of the devil. Well, why not answer his question?
“Chaud, why do you always call people by their family name?” I could tell that I caught Chaud by surprise. But then, I was caught by surprise when he sat down next to me.
“I don’t know honestly. I suppose…it was just the way I was raised.” He answered.
“Oh…” Chaud turned towards me and looked at me with his piercing blue eyes.
“And why were you wondering?” He inquired. I stared into the leaves of the tree I was sitting under.
“Because, it’s rude and inconsiderate to call someone by their family name. It’s like you don’t care who the person is, just what family they came from.” I explained. Chaud looked surprised. Not that I can blame him. But then, he smiled.
“You just don’t stop surprising me today, do you Hik-“ Chaud then paused and corrected himself. “Sorry…Lan.” I smiled at him.
“Thanks Chaud.” Chaud simply shrugged. After that, silence seemed to settle over both of us. Well, that is until I yawned a bit loudly. Chaud half smiled, half smirked at me.
“Tired?” He asked, and I laughed slightly.
“Yea, I suppose so. I’d better get going.” Chaud nodded, stood up and offered me his hand. I smiled and took the offered hand. Chaud pulled me up to my feet.
“I’ll see you later, Chaud.” I said. Chaud nodded and walked off. After watching his go off, I also headed back to my house. It was now 7 o’clock and I was tired, so I went to sleep after telling my parents and Megaman that I was back.
/The Next Morning/
I woke up feeling rather chilly. I frowned slightly and pulled the covers closer to me, only to find that they wouldn’t pull anymore. ‘Darn it, so why am I so cold?’ I asked myself. I tried to get comfortable, but it was useless with all the shivering I was doing. I sighed and decided to just get up. Plus, imagine Megaman’s surprise when he wakes up and I’m already awake! I looked over at the clock. It was 6:30 AM. Wow, I never get up this early. Well, unless it’s for a netbattle tournament of course. I yawned and decided that it might be a good idea if I splashed my face with some water. I walked softly to the bathroom and leaned over the sink and splashed my face with some cold water. The cold water had the desired effect. I felt a lot more awake than I had before. I wiped the water off my face and then found myself staring at my reflection in the mirror.
“Hell, no…” I whispered. My normally chocolate brown eyes were now noticeably tinted with gray.
“What on earth…? How could this have happened…?” I asked softly. Of course, no answer came. How am I going to explain this?
/End Chapter/

Chapter 4- Homepages and Animated Backgrounds
I sighed as I walked downstairs. I wonder how mom is going to react to this? As soon as I stepped off of the stairs, I saw my mom bustling around, making breakfast.
“Hey Mom.” I greeted her. The plastic cup she was holding clattered to the floor and she stared at me.
“What?” I asked.
“Lan, you’re…up early…” Mom stammered. I rolled my eyes, but I was amused. Hm…maybe I should get up early more often if this is the reaction I’ll get.
“Yeah, I know. I just woke up. But Mom, I have a problem.” I said. Mom seemed to snap to her senses and went right back into mother mode. She walked up to me and put her hand on my forehead.
“What’s wrong dear? You don’t feel hot…” She was muttering to herself.
“It’s my eyes. I think they’ve changed colors.” I said to her.
“Oh, don’t be silly dear, you’re eyes don’t-“ She was cut off as she finally looking into my eyes and noticed the gray in them.
“How…?” I shrugged.
“No clue, I’ve been trying to figure that out myself.” Mom stared for another couple of moments, and then pulled away.
“Well, I suppose we could talk to your father later on. Now, why don’t you go upstairs and get ready? I’m sure Megaman will be waking up soon.” I grinned and went back upstairs and changed into my clothes for the day. Once changed, I looked at the clock. 6:59. Megaman will be up in a minute. I can’t wait to see what his reaction will be to me waking up before him. Just then, the alarm function on the PET went off. It continued for a moment before Megaman shut it off. I quickly went outside my room and closed the door and leaned against it. I can’t wait to see Megaman’s reaction when he realizes I’m not there.
“Huh…? Lan…?” A grin grew on my face.
“Lan! W-where is he?” Megaman’s voice was growing frantic. I had to stop myself from bursting out into hysterical laughter. If I did, I would reveal myself. I calmed myself and non-chalantly walked into my room.
“Oh, hey Megaman! You finally up?” Megaman stared at me.
“What?” I asked innocently.
“Y-you…you’re…up early…” Megaman’s eyes were wide and I swear he looked ready to pass out.
“Yeah, so?” Oh this was too much fun. Now he really looked ready to pass out.
“B-but…you’ve NEVER gotten up early!” I shrugged.
“I know. But I just kind of woke up about a half hour ago.” Megaman’s emerald eyes met mind and I could feel him searching my eyes for any trace of a lie. Apparently he believed me, because he broke eye contact.
“I can’t believe it…” He muttered. I grinned at that.
“I know, I had a hard time believing it myself.” I said to him. Megaman looked up at that.
“Speaking of hard to believe, what’s with your eyes?” He asked. I shrugged again.
“Honestly, I have no clue. I just woke up and they were like this. Mom says I should see Dad later.” I explained.
“Oh…well, I would say ‘you’d better get ready for school’, but it appears you’re one step ahead of me.” I grinned at Megaman’s wry comment.
“Yep!” I said cheerfully. I saw Megaman roll his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah…" Megaman muttered and my grin grew. About ten minutes later, I headed out to school. On the way, I met up with Maylu.
"Hey Maylu!" I greeted her. Maylu turned towards me in surprise.
"Lan? Oh…my…gosh…" I sighed. Now, this was getting really old. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten up early after all. Then again, it’s not like I had a choice about it…
"Yeah, I know, I'm up early. Please, don't lecture me about it." I said. Maylu still looked startled but agreed. While the two of us walked to school, we were silent for a while, which was odd since Maylu was normally quite the chatterbox.
"So…Lan…how have you been feeling?" Maylu asked softly. I started in surprise. I hadn't been expecting the silence to be broken.
"I'm alright, I suppose. But it seems like no matter how much sleep I get, I'm still tired, though." I explained. Maylu seemed to ponder this for a few moments.
"Well, you were drained of almost all of your energy. It's probably just your body trying to regain the energy that you lost." Maylu suggested and I shrugged. I decided not to mention the time when I had first gotten home and I had a strange bit of a dizzy spell. Anyways, it wasn't all that important, right?
When Maylu and I finally got to class, there was a collective gasp from everyone who was already there. We both rolled our eyes and sat down at our desks. A few minutes later, Ms. Mari came in and took attendance.
"Hikari, Lan."
"Here." Ms Mari looked up from the attendance sheet and looked at me. She smiled and went back to taking attendance. I didn't really pay attention and just stared out the window. Suddenly, I blinked. For a moment there, something seemed…off…I just couldn't describe it.
"Alright everyone! Please pull out your textbooks and turn to page 437. Please do problems 2 through 22 evens!" Ms. Mari instructed. I pulled out my math book with a sigh and started to do some of the problems we were instructed. But when I was halfway through problem 12, I suddenly drew a blank and it suddenly became incredibly hard to think straight. I blinked in surprise and stared at my book.
"Is something wrong Lan?" Megaman whispered quietly to me. I tried to shake off the strange fuzzy feeling that was overcoming my mind.
"I dunno…I feel kinda funny…" I muttered softly. Megaman looked alarmed but before he could say anything, darkness obscured my vision and I passed out.
I gasped and sat straight up, trying to catch my breath. I had that strange dream again. What on earth wash that strange light? But this time, I had gotten to see the place I had arrived in. It was deep and seeming endless, a lot like space. But the thing that stopped me from saying endless was that there was a pathway and I could see it end. The place seemed so familiar and I know I've seen that place before, but where? I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. Hey, wait! Where's my headband? I looked around and took in my surroundings. I was in my room. But how?
"Lan! You're awake!" Megaman yelled from the computer. I winced and covered my ears.
"Yeah, yeah! I am! Just don't yell like that." I told him. Megaman looked down at the ground and looked kind of sheepish.
"I'm sorry, I was just worried about you." I smiled at him.
"It's alright, I understand." I assured him. Megaman returned the smile.
"Well, I'm going to go see Roll and Maylu and tell them that you're up. Maylu was really worried about you, you know." Megaman said. I blinked. No, I hadn't known that. But then again, how could I have? I've been unconscious for who-knows-how-long.
"Sure, go ahead. But how long have I been out for?" I asked before Megaman took off.
"About…" Megaman quickly checked the clock. "…three hours." My eyes widened in surprise.
"Wow…well anyways, way don't you check in with Roll? I'm sure she wants to see you." I suggested with a wink. I had the great pleasure of seeing Megaman blush.
"Erm…o-ok…" Megaman stuttered slightly and quickly logged out. I smirked. I've known for a while that Megaman has a crush on Roll, and quite frankly, I hope he asks her out soon. It's obvious that Roll likes him back. Plus, they'd be cute together.
I sighed and walked over to my computer and stared at the screen. I felt my hand brush over the jack-in port and it surprisingly felt warm. I blinked and was snapped out of my slight trance when it felt as though something inside me shifted and changed. Then, instead of black, my vision went white as a blinding light was emitted from the computer and I had to close my eyes. When I opened my eyes, I was shocked.
Since when did little versions of my family's insignia float around like an animated background? 'An animated background?' I thought to myself. Suddenly, my eyes widened as realization set in. There was only one place I knew where my symbol was all over the place. And that would be…on my homepage on the internet!

Omg...this isn't fair. You have such a talent for making people in-character. It seems so much better compared to mine. x//x;; Your descriptions of everything are very detailed, and like before, I think it's really cool how it's from Netto's point of view. Frankly, I've never read a fic that was basically from his POV.
Anyway, the plot seems to be really getting interesting now. Keep it up! ^^

Really? You think Netto's in character? I feel like I'm more writing through my own personality than his per say...And this is actually the first fic that I've ever written that fully that's from Netto's POV. I always feel that Netto should be a bit more energetic and upbeat, but I really can't seem to write it...>.o

Hm...well, I don't know. I think the way you write Netto is fine the way it is. Many people tend to overly emphasize the energy and upbeatness in him, and it's rather refreshing to read something that doesn't show him as that. I, for one, tend to make him seem as though he has extreme ADHD or something. >.> -coughs- Like you wrote in your fic, Netto isn't always as dense as he seems, and it's good to see that side portrayed of him more. ^^;;

Warped Life
Aki Kochou
Chapter 5- Lan's WHAT!
POV- Starts in 1st, switches to 3rd
I shook my head in disbelief. How on earth was this possible? Me, a human, in the cyberworld? I reached over to pinch myself in the arm when I stopped. Instead of my normal colored skin, my hand was covered by a finger less black glove. I blinked and for the first time, realized that my eyes were covered by a light blue visor.
"Wow.." I whispered to myself and found that my voice was slightly deeper. I also felt an incredible amount of energy flowing through me. I hadn't felt like this since.. before Shademan's attack at Sci-Lab. I frowned slightly and then came up with an idea. If I was somehow on the net, why not explore? I quickly ran over to the warp point and stepped into it. I'm not even sure I can describe the feeling I went through when I was warped through. It almost felt as though my entire body started buzzing and turned into energy. I blinked in surprise when I was finished with the warp. I doubt I'll ever get used to it. I looked around and grinned.
'So this is Megaman's world' I thought to myself.
Just then, I heard a scream. My eyes widened and I quickly looked around for the source. I found it when I saw Shademan attacking an innocent navi. I tried to figure out how to summon my basic weapon. I groaned as nothing appeared.
'For heaven's sake! How the hell do I do this!' I clenched my right fist tightly and wished my weapon would show up. I was startled when my entire arm changed and transformed into a black blade. I smirked and thought to myself. 'Now this is more like it.' I quickly ran towards Shademan and stopped about eight feet away from him.
"Hey Shademan! Leave that navi alone!" I yelled. Said navi paused and growled at me. But then he dropped the poor navi on the ground and walked over to me. I tensed and raised my sword in front of me as a defense. Shademan may not have attacked yet, but that doesn't mean he won't.
"Hey Shademan! Leave that navi alone!" I yelled. Said navi paused and growled at me. But then he dropped the poor navi on the ground and walked over to me. I tensed and raised my sword in front of me as a defense. Shademan may not have attacked yet, but that doesn't mean he won't.
"Oh yes, parts of your color scheme remind me of parts of mine. Very... odd... is it not?" Shademan brought up his hand and rested his cold fingers against my cheek. My eyes narrowed and I slapped his hand away from me with my swordless hand.
"I hope you're not asking me to join you because the answer is no." I told him with my eyes still narrowed. Shademan didn't seem fazed.
"Oh no...not now. Not when you are much too blinded by the light to even spare a glimpse at the dark. You are too close-minded...for now. But when your darkness is revealed...we shall see. Already I can see it growing in your eyes. Ah well, we shall indeed see." Shademan said and vanished.
"Wait!" I called after him. But it was too late. He was gone. I transformed my sword back into my arm and sighed. What on earth had that been about? Was I dark? No way! That can't be...right? Was I blind like Shademan said? I suddenly became aware of the whispering around me. I realized that the other navis were talking about me. I quickly ran off back toward my homepage. The last thing I wanted was someone to interrogate me about what had just happened. Heck, I don't even really understand what happened. I slowed down as I passed by Maylu's homepage. I stopped altogether when I heard a familiar voice.
"Well, I'd better get going. I've got to go check on Lan." It was Megaman! I paled, cured and then took off at the sprint.
'I have to get back before Megaman!'
I quickly jumped back into the warp point that led to my homepage. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me. 'How the heck do I log out!' I tried to keep myself from panicking. I closed my eyes and imagined myself as a beam of light shooting out of the computer and appearing in the real world...
I opened my eyes again and found that it had worked. I was back in my own room. However, I felt exhausted. I laid down on my bed and I heard Megaman log into my computer.
'Just in time...' I thought to myself drowsily and fell asleep.
/Next Morning- 3rd person/
Morning, a time many wished didn't start till noon, a fact Lan agreed with. If he had his way, the sun wouldn't rise till then. That way, Megaman wouldn't have a reason to harp at him.
Once again though, Lan found himself waking at what he thought an unholy hour. In fact once again before his navi awakened. He opened his new gray-brown eyes, for minutes he just stared at the ceiling.
His thoughts were filled with emotions, confusions, that strange adventure into the cyber world had startled him. He wanted to tell his navi, but how the hell would Megaman accept that.
At this point Lan didn't notice that Megaman's PET had come out of recharge mode.
"How can I tell him that, I can't even tell him I'm gay. I'm such a chicken," he muttered with a sigh.
Megaman's eyes widened at this bit of news, how…how could Lan be one of ‘them’.
‘I better tell Lan's parents' he thought and linked out of his PET, moments later he materialized in the computer screen in the kitchen area. Both parents; were there, Megaman paused worried on how they would react… but they had to know.
“Um…Mrs Hikari, Doctor…” Megaman said; they turned hearing him.
“Yes Megaman?” Lan's mother asked.
“I have something to tell you…and you aren’t going to like it,” Megaman said, he then told them what he had heard, there faces whitened in shock and even disgust.
A sound of a backpack dropping was heard, Maylu had just entered.
“That’s sick, just sick,” she said looking a bit green.
Meanwhile Lan, upstairs in his room and had never realized his life had just changed for the worst.
Ok, this last part was written by my dear friend FireHedgeHog, so I give credit for the last part (From where it shifts into 3rd POV to the end) to her.

I'm looking forward to more. ^^ keehee i'm from ff.net too! in fact, that's where i started stalking- i mean talking to Yian-San here! n.n and once again, i'm LemmingRebel on ff too. as for your story, melikes so far! heehee i can't wait to read onward....

Chapter 6- Shunned
POV- 1st, Lan's POV
Warning- Cussing, Homophobia
I shook my head and decided to go downstairs, since my stomach was complaining of its lack of food. However, I couldn't help but feel as though something important had just happened. Actually, something felt really off. I looked around my room and then noticed that my PET was out of sleep mode, but Megaman wasn't in the PET or my PC. I paled at the thought of him hearing what I had been talking to myself about.
'Please don't tell me he heard...please!' I thought desperately to myself. I vaguely realized in the back of my mind that I was hyperventilating. I quickly took a deep breath and tried to calm myself. It didn't help a whole lot, but it did stop my hyperventilation. I took another deep breath and finally decided that I might as well go downstairs and see what was going to happen. I found myself having to force myself to go down the stairs step by step. Each step, the dread inside me grew and grew. When I stepped off the staircase into the living room, I found that my parents and Maylu were staring at me.
"Uh...good...morning...?" I stated cautiously. Maylu was the first to snap out of the trance. She threw her backpack over her shoulder and turned away from me with a 'hmp!' and ran out of the house. I blinked in surprise.
"What's wrong with her?" I asked my parents. Neither of them said anything, just pretty much stared at me. I fidgeted slightly. I never did like silence, especially really long and heavy ones and this one was just about as heavy as you could get.
"Lan, are you gay?" I nearly choked and tripped over my own feet.
"W-where did you hear that?" I asked, trying to sound like I had absolutely no idea how my parents could have come up with such a crazy idea. I'm not sure if I was very convincing though.
"Megaman told us." My mom answered. I spun around and faced the tv monitor where Megaman was.
"H-how...?" I stammered. Megaman looked down at the ground.
"I heard you talking to yourself about it. I thought it would be good to tell your parents..." Megaman muttered. For a moment I just stared at him in horror. I just couldn't believe it. I had a feeling that Megaman might have overheard...but for him to sink this low and not even ask me before telling people, especially my parents!
"Oh, and not even ask me my opinion before just coming out and telling everyone my secret! Secrets are secrets for a reason, meaning you don't tell anyone them if you do find out!" I yelled at my navi. Anger flowed through my veins at how Megaman betrayed me. I had trusted him! And here he goes and tells my parents and friend one of my darkest secrets! Megaman winced.
'Good, he oughta be sorry' I found myself thinking. Normally I would berate myself for thinking like that, but this time I was just too angry to do so. After all, it was his fault that my parents knew.
"Oh? And were you ever planning in telling us Lan? Because if you weren't I think that Megaman had every right to tell us. It's our duty to know these things." Papa said to me. Again, my anger grew.
"No, I wasn't going to tell you because I knew you would react like this! You would never understand what its like, knowing that people will hate you if they ever found out! You saw how Maylu acted!" I yelled, as a way to vent my anger. Didn't Papa ever think that maybe there might be reasons why I didn't tell people things like these? And to think that parents always say they know best. Yeah right.
"That's your own fault, Lan!" Now THAT really got me going.
"How the hell is this MY fault! I didn't choose this! God damn it! If I had a choice, I'd be normal like everyone else! But nooo there's no way for me to be normal! Not anymore now that a certain blue navi decided to spill one of my biggest secrets! Well listen here! The next time that WWW or any net terrorist group comes back, don't come looking for me to stop them, because I'll just stand there and laugh at you! And I mean it, too!" I screamed and ran out of my house. I faintly heard my parents calling after me, but I didn't stop. I just kept running until I had reached the park. I sighed and sat down on one of the benches. I knew I shouldn't have started talking to myself about that. At least not before checking if anyone was near me who could have heard.
I looked up suddenly when I heard voices approaching.
"I can't believe it. He can't be...right?" a young female voice said.
"I don't know...that's what I heard." A more older female voice replied.
"Well, it does kind of make sense. After all, he was the first of us to make friends with Chaud when all Chaud would do is insult us." I recognized that voice as Dex. So then..if that was Dex... the others must have been Yai and Maylu. Were they...talking about...me...? Oh heavens...please don't tell me they already know. It's bad enough that Maylu knows. I sighed. Well, there was only one way to find out if they did know. I put a cheerful face on and walked over to the others.
"Hey guys!" I greeted them. For a moment, they all kind of stared at me with open mouths and then, Dex scowled while Maylu and Yai glared at me.
"What?" I asked.
"How dare you talk to us, you freak!" Dex finally broke the silence first. Ouch...now that one hurt. I tried to pretend I had no idea of what he was talking about.
"W-what are you talking about Dex?" I asked. This time, Maylu spoke.
"Don't play dumb with me!"
"He probably doesn't have to try too hard to achieve that..." Yai muttered. I actually winced at that. Why do people think I'm stupid or something like that! So I got ONE C on my report card when I came to my language class. The rest of my grades were B-'s. That's passing! But I got A's in Virus Busting and Basics of Programming classes.
"I heard Megaman tell your parents about your condition. " Maylu spat out the last word as if it couldn't even begin to describe what it really was.
"We don't want anything to do with you, so just get lost!" I didn't even register who had said that, but I didn't care. I held myself impassivly and turned away.
"Fine." I said softly. "Hate me for something I can't even control. Hate me because I'm different. Hate me because you're a bunch of prejudice bastards! Well, if this is how you're going to treat me, I"m glad that we're not friends anymore!" I finally ended up yelling and then running back to my house. I paused in the door way when I heard voices talking.
"Don't worry Megaman. I'm sure he'll thank you someday." I heard Papa say, mostly likely to Megaman. I snorted softly.
"The only thing I'd thank you for is for ruining my life," I said while stepping out of the doorway. "And also for destroying my friendship with Maylu, Dex and Yai. Well, at least I know where they stand on the issue of homosexuality." I added thoughtfully. Megaman looked slightly horrified, probably never expecting all that to happen just because of one slipped secret. I just went upstairs and sat down on my bed. Finally, it all sunk in what had just happened and I found myself bursting into tears. Why did this have to happen? Why couldn't Megaman have just kept his mouth shut? Or even better, why didn't I keep mine shut? I sighed. I felt as though there was a huge gaping hole in the middle of my chest.
For some reason, I began thinking about ways to get out of this mess. But there was no way...as far as I could tell. I glanced over at my computer and once again started thinking about why Megaman had betrayed me. Suddenly realization hit me. Of course! No one knew me as a navi. Perhaps I could use that to my advantage. I stood up and walked over to the computer and placed my hand over the jack in port. I imagined myself as a navi on the net. Slowly, a bright light started to cover my vision so I knew it was working, even if it was going a lot slower than last time.
However, something that I wasn't expecting happened. A pain like no other filled me from head to toe. I bit my lip, trying to stop myself from screaming, but the pain never faded. Slowly, it felt as though something was slipping away from me and I couldn't figure it out before my entire world went black.
What…am I…? What is this place…?And…what is my name…? I'm in a strange place…there are odd people here. Are they people? No…something inside me tells me that they are netnavis. Netnavis…what a funny word…I wonder who came up with that word? Am I a netnavi? I look down at my hands. They are covered with black fingerless gloves. Yes…I am a netnavi. If I am a netnavi, why do I not remember anything?
Currently, I am hiding in the shadows, watching another navi. This navi was pink and had what looked like yellow ribbons circling her head. She was talking to someone through a screen.
"Maylu! Why did you abandon him! That was wrong! " The pink netnavi exclaimed. I frowned when I saw the one whom the netnavi was talking to. A female human…hatred and anger flooded through me and it seemed to control me.
I was abandoned by humans…abandoned for something I couldn't control. That much I could remember. The anger grew as I swore revenge on them. All of them would pay… I would make sure of it. I logged out of that area and onto the main…internet…? Is that it…? Yes, it is. I wandered around and almost everywhere I went, I was attacked by viruses. For each virus I destroyed, I grew angrier.
Delete…
Delete…
Kesu…
Kesu…
Kesu…that is my name.
End Chapter
Just for notes: Kesu means delete so...yea...

Chapter 7- The Darkness Within
Ah yes, I was having a lot more fun than I had been in the past few days. It had been a week since I had…”woken up” so to speak. All I had done really, was wander around and delete virus after virus. But everywhere I went, there were those weak navis talking to those humans. They will die…I’m already planning my first attack. I smirked at the thought.
Humans were dependant upon the technology that allowed them to barely work at all. But soon…soon they will realize the critical mistake they mad by allowing such advanced technology into their society. My smirk grew when I hear a beep inside my helmet, which was very similar to the beep that a regular netnavi would hear when an email arrived. It was time…time to make the humans pay!
/3rd Person/
Megaman sat on and stared at the ground of the PET. He felt that there was nothing he could do. When he had done what he had thought was right, everyone rejected Lan and then Lan ran away. Megaman slammed his fist into the ground. It hurt, but Megaman felt he deserved it. Tears flowed slowly at first, then cascaded like a river down his cheeks. It felt as thought there was a horrible fire burning inside of his chest, and nothing he did could soothe the pain.
“W-why…? Why did I…do that…? It wasn’t my business…it wasn’t anyone else’s either…” Megaman chanted softly to himself in between sobs. Megaman had been in state for at least five days. I had also been five days since the Hikari family had realized that Lan had run away for good. At first, Lan’s parents simply thought that he was staying at a friend’s house or something along those lines. However, it became crystal clear that Lan had not had contact with any of his ex-friends ever since they had yelled at him. Megaman found that he definitely couldn’t blame Lan for that.
Megaman quickly rubbed the tears from his eyes when he heard a beeping sound, signaling a new email. He opened the email and was a bit surprised by its contents. It was from Searchman and he was…asking for assistance…? Apparently, there was a strange navi who was attacking one of the Cotnrol X towers. Searchman was having one heck of a time trying to fight the navi off.
However, when Megaman thought about it, Lan had a strange knack to show up anytime there was trouble. ‘Maybe Lan will show up there!’ Megaman thought to himself. He quickly wrote out an email to Searchman saying that he was on his way.
‘Hang in there Lan…’
/1st Person/
I blinked when I saw a green camo navi with bright orange hair suddenly log into where I was. I said to myself under my breath,
“Wow, who does your hair, punk? Because I think they need some serious help…” Apparently, the navi had better hearing than I thought because his eyes narrowed at me.
“I wouldn’t be talking. So then, you’re the one who has been attempting to destroy the Control X towers?” I simply smirked.
“Trying? I think that I’ve succeeded.” I pointed to the cyber control tower where several viruses were destroying the tower. The orange haired navi swore and charged the viruses. I watched from the sidelines, amused as the navi tried to delete the viruses in time. It didn’t matter if the navi managed to delete the viruses. The tower was already damaged beyond function. I chuckled. That tower was a lost cause now. I turned to leave, when I found myself a foot away from a blue netnavi with spiky black hair.
‘Megaman…’ I felt a strange pull towards this navi as his name suddenly appeared in my head. A flash of memory came back to me. He hurt me…He was the reason I was betrayed…but how? How had my friends betrayed me? In what way? Suddenly, I saw red. It didn’t matter how he had betrayed me, just that he did. Yes, he would die just like that camo navi would. Very painfully…oh, yes….this would be very fun indeed.
“Who are you?” I focused up Megaman. He was staring at me. He wanted to know my name? Then, my name would be the last thing he would ever hear.
“My name…is Kesu. And that will be the last thing you will ever hear!” Megaman’s eyes widened for a split second then narrowed and he got into a fighting stance.
“We’ll see about that.” He responded. I summoned my dark black sword and I charged at the blue navi. Megaman must have been surprised at my speed because he didn’t react nearly as fast as he should have. I slashed with my sword and my sword hit true, just like it always did.
Megaman staggered back, having gotten a good hit to the side. Megaman pulled up his buster, probably meant to try to shoot me with, when I felt another’s presence in the area. This presence was dark, must like my own. I dodged Megaman’s blast and turned towards the shadows where the presence was.
“Who’s there? Show yourself!” I demanded. Megaman paused and looked in the direction that I was looking, seemingly confused. A dark chuckled was heard all over the area. Suddenly, there was a flash and the camo navi fell to the ground. Megaman’s eyes widened and he stood in shock for a moment before snapping out of it and quickly running to the camo navi.
“Searchman!” He exclaimed. ‘So…that was the camo navi’s name….’ I thought to myself wryly. I saw a vampire-like netnavi step out of the shadows. He was familiar…so very familiar.
“Shademan!” I couldn’t help but snort. ‘I really must thank you Megaman…you’ve been helping me figure out others’ names.’ I nearly laughed out loud at the thought.
Shademan let out an attack that looked like a sonic blast which sent Megaman into the wall and left him paralyzed. That definitely had to hurt. Actually, it was painful just to watch. Shademan made Megaman look like a complete amateur. But then again, Megaman really DID look like an amateur right now. Shademan glanced over at me and walked over antagonizingly slowly to me.
“So…it appears that your darkness has finally revealed itself, my child…” I blinked in surprise. So…Shademan knew me before my amnesia then?
“You knew me before all this?” I questioned, my eyes narrowed. Shademan smirked.
“I did indeed. You were just getting used to your navi abilities. You seemed quite lost: a human in a navi’s frame. You were quite firmly a human of light…at least, until your own navi betrayed you…over a very simple thing, none-the-less…” Well, this was interesting…but what he was saying seemed familiar , so it must have been true. I also vaguely saw Shademan shoot a smirk at Megaman, who paled at the implications. I wonder what that was about…hm…I’ll have to figure it out. This Shademan was an intriguing navi.
“So now…my dark child…I must ask you…” My eyes narrowed.
“What…?” Shademan’s eyes glinted.
“Will you join me and destroy the humans and riffraff like Megaman and Searchman?”
