Chocolate: this is a story made by me when I was "Haruka shishi" (my old pen name and when I didnt have my lil sis with me)

Chocolate: I don't own any thing of spirited away I just made this fan fic

Hi ya'll this is my first story ever for Spirited Away and I got this idea from reading a ton of these fan fictions

I'm Chihiro Hinosaki I used to be called Chihiro Ogino but that's another story that maybe I'll tell later, I'm 16 years old and have forgotten some of my childhood past. I only remember these few clips...It was so frustrating! I couldn't remember! Just flashes here or there; a boy with brilliant green eyes and an almost hypnotic voice, a bunch of pigs turning into humans, an awful smell…It was a puzzle with missing pieces. I couldn't put it together to make a picture!

But enough of that after whatever that was I suddenly been interested in mythology and have been studying it ever since I started in high school.

"Chihiro, your lunch is done!" called my mother which snapped me out of my daze and made me run down to the kitchen. "Mom, Guess what It's finally summer vacation!" "Yes, honey I know you been so happy that summer was coming and now it's here! And you can go off in to your hiking all around the forest again..." sighed my mother. She really didn't like me being out in the woods. Because some people went missing on the other side of the small village we live in. And there were some awful past we left behind in those woods. But she allowed me because it was the only thing that kept me truly happy and she knows that she can't provide me with happiness so she just lets me do almost anything I want...

You see I have been trying to find that Amusement park... No it was more than an amusement park. But what was it?

As I took a different route from yesterday when I went into the woods to try and reach my destination, the amusement park which I keep on remembering when I try to remember my past.

I heard a rustle through the trees as the wind blew by; a long sigh brushed the bushes and ferns surrounding me. I slowly turned to the direction the wind was coming from. There I thought I saw a glimmer of red brick. When I relooked at the direction of the red brick wall I started to remember something but I didn't know what. I started running towards the direction of the brick red wall, as I ran, thousands of memories of travelling up an old path to A-a-a... what?

Then suddenly I was standing right in front of a amusement park gate. I started to remember a flash of my father popped into my head. Back when he was my father.

"It's an abandoned theme park! These walls are just made of plaster." He had said.

But it wasn't a theme park. It was something else…But what? I placed my hand on the hot blazing surface of the red, fiery brick wall. I looked up at the sun to see what time it was, the sun was just right above me so I guessed it was lunch time. I started to remember something from this place and I was about to step in the tunnel when I felt this chill. I looked around me but saw nothing.

I decided to go in because I thought maybe it would be a good place to have lunch.

I started to remember more now it was coming back...

I walked through the tunnel, stumbling slightly a quarter of the way in.

My mother's voice called out to me, "Chihiro, don't cling like that! You'll make me trip."I made it through the tunnel and train station without incident, and looked at the hills. There were more memories.

"Will we ever see each other again?" I'd asked.

"I'm sure we will." The boy said back.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

But who was he?

I sighed, once again frustrated with my lack of memory and hopped across the stones of the river, almost losing a shoe in the process.I'd always lost my shoes in rivers. It's a Bad habit of mine.

I walked past some huts with tantalizing smells drifting out. I knew that if I ate the food something bad would was a bathhouse with a bridge connecting it to the rest of the place. I leaned over the railing, Déjà vu.

"Who're you? What are you doing here?"For a second I thought I was remembering something else, and then someone grabbed my shoulder and jerked until I had spun around to face them.

It was the boy, only older. His hair the same but who did I know that?, his face more defined, but his eyes… they were cold, Harsh and Unrelenting… Like a river.

I gasped. River, Kohaku River.

Then I remembered his name.

"Haku."He narrowed his eyes at me, his hand tightening on my arm. I winced and tried to pull away, but he held me too tight."Let me go!""How do you know my name?" He snarled."I don't know!" I whimpered. "I think I've been here before!" I felt my eyes tear wasn't Haku, he couldn't be. Haku was warm, and sweet…"Impossible!" He growled. "What's your name, human!" he said human in such a bitter voice it almost made me want to die.

"Chihiro." I gasped emerald eyes widened and his grip on my arm loosened. "Impossible…" He repeated. "Chihiro has no memory of this place!" but then he went quite as if remembering something... but whatever it was my result was far much better than what he gave me before.I met his eyes again; they had softened almost completely.

"Haku…" I whispered. "Why did you make a promise you knew you couldn't keep?"
He gasped. "You weren't supposed to remember…"I shook my head."I didn't… but I still waited for you."

Then all my memories came to me all in one hard flow like water being tapped but suddenly realised all my memories of the bathhouse came rushing back to me. Lin, Bou, Kamajii, Zeniba, and Yubaba. Haku bit his lip, looking uncertain for the first time since I'd met him."I'm sorry…" He whispered. "You were supposed to forget everything about me."I smiled. "You're everything but forgettable."

He managed a small smile he seemed to reserve just for me, then looked up and panicked."We have to get you back!" He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the river. We were too late. The river was full and the spirit boat thingy was docking.

Haku swore quietly and I sighed in relief. I didn't want to go back. There was nothing left for me there."Haku…" I whispered. "Can… can I stay here?"He looked at me shocked. "Why would you want to do that?"

I fiddled with the hem of the white sweater I was wearing. "I just… I don't fit in there…""But your parents…" He started.

"The thing is..."

I began my story of the past to him.

My father became abusive towards my mother. Then towards me, she broke up with him after that.

She got in to the slut business so she does "it" with every one that requests her in her hosting job.

She started to ignore me and let her "so called guests" have their way with me after she is all warn out...IM STILL A VIRGIN!... They just beat me up and things like that but some of them...no most... tried to do it with me...

End of story.

I whispered my story, rubbing a bruise on my hip and staring at my hand as it started to fade.

A few years ago, this would have seemed really strange to me. Haku pushed one of those red berry things passed my lips."Chew it and swallow." I remembered him saying. I did and immediately returned to solid."Thanks." I said, offering him a smile. He smiled back slightly. "No problem."I wrapped my arms around myself shivering."

"Let's get you inside." Haku said. "Kamajii will be happy to see you."I grinned cheekily."And I'm sorry… about your parents." He added softly. I shrugged. "I miss my mom… but my dad isn't really my dad anymore."My dad cracked jokes, and got us lost, and got turned into a pig, and never hit me.

He nodded and grabbed my hand, pulling me towards the bathhouse. His hands were bigger than mine, warm, and safe."Hold your breath." He reminded me when we came up on the bridge again."As long as no magic, talking frogs pop out at me." I teased.

I cannot express the relief I feel at having all my memories back. Haku actually laughed a bit. "No promises."Oh my god. He cracked a joke! Alert the press!

Ahem.

Moving on.

I giggled and took a deep breath as we came up on the bridge, I didn't exhale, instead holding it in, my cheeks puffing out like some sort of odd chipmunk. I saw Haku's hand twitch out of the corner of my eye, but didn't think anything of it. Then as we were almost at the end, then that dang frog showed up again.

I gasped and the amphibian's eyes widened.

"Sen!"

And now I cannot say I have never been clomped by a magical, talking frog. Haku looked beyond amused and I realized that him moving his hand hadn't been a reflex or muscle twitch. He had summoned the stupid frog!"You sneaky serpent!" I gasped, jabbing my finger into his chest as many of the people I used to work with crowded around us, all shouting greetings, and praises for how I didn't smell nearly as bad as I did last time.

Well… thanks. I guess.

"I'm taking Chihiro to see Kamajii, have Lin bring some food down." Haku commanded. "And don't tell her Chihiro is here!"

There was a general murmur of agreement. I smiled and waved as Haku pulled me down the familiar path to Kamajii's boiler room.I remembered the first time I'd ever come down and couldn't help but giggle when I saw the wall I'd run face first into.

Haku gave me an odd look and I just shook my head. "Private joke."He arched an eyebrow but didn't say anything, opening the door to the boiler room.

"Old man! You have a visitor!" He called over the hissing and roaring of the rushing steam."Haku! I don't have time for your shenanigans!" Kamajii shouted my god. He said shenanigans. My life is complete.

As an after though I heard Kamajii mutter, "I think I liked you better when you were moping."

I smirked and stepped out to where Kamajii could see me. "Haku, be nice to my grandfather."

The soot balls swarmed around my feet, squeaking excitedly while Kamajii looked at me over the rim of his dark glasses, like he couldn't quite believe what he was seeing."Sen?"I grinned. "Chihiro actually, but yes."

He beamed and used two of his six long arms to pull me into a hug.

"I missed you!" I said, hugging him tightly. "I didn't remember you, but I missed you!"

Kamajii smiled and pulled me away from him, looking me over. "Why, Chihiro! You grew up!"I giggled. "Yeah! Boobs and everything!"

This had the desired effect, Haku's eyes traveled up to my chest, his face slowly flushing. Kamajii laughed and put me down."Nicely done, Chihiro."I grinned. I was a full-blown teenager with raging hormones, dammit. And I needed to get him back for the frog.

Haku shot Kamajii a glare, his face still beet red."Sorry about that, Haku." I apologized, turning my grin into an innocent, angelic smile.

Haku's eyes softened. "It's alright."

Mission accomplished.

It shouldn't be over yet but I'll decide soon enough so... R+R please!
