Menu2 will only return pages if you are on the second level (or greater) and the sibling pages are allowed to be shown in menus.

If you're on a top level page then you won't see a menu 2.

If you do want to show a menu 2 control on any page by itself, there is a way around it;

<% control Menu(1) %>
<% if Children %>
<ul>
<% control Children %>
<li><a class="$LinkingMode $MenuTitle" href="$Link" title="Go to the {$Title} page">$MenuTitle</a></li>
<% end_control %>
</ul>
<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>
