Remember Me?

Prologue

  "What do you want?!"  cried Chihiro in despair as a black hooded shadow crept up to her.

  The figure smiled and threw its hood off.  With a sickly smile it said, "Your most precious memories.  I will send you back to the spirit world after, where you will wander endlessly for all ETERNITY!!!"  A high cold cackle escaped its horribly deformed mouth.

  "No," Chihiro sank to the ground, unable to bear it all.  How could this have happened to her?  How could she been so stupid to let her guard down?  Now her memories of being in the spirit world and being with Haku were about to be vanquished, just because she let her guard down.  No!  She wouldn't let that happen.  She stood, hands balled up into fists.  With a cry of rage, she rushed passed the monster, hoping that it wouldn't pursue her, that her beloved memories were safe.  But it was not to be.

  A black chain rushed from the shadow as Chihiro rushed past, trapping her.

  "NO!!"  The chain lifted Chihiro above the ground to meet the shadow, face to face.  In desperation, she began to struggle.

  "Now, now, it won't hurt."  The shadow bent a little, its eyes menacing.  Chihiro found that looking into its eyes gave her peace of some sort.  A floaty sensation, thought Chihiro as she became mesmerized.

  The creature smiled.  Now I have her, it thought.  While Chihiro was mesmerized, the creature drained away her most precious memories, its horrid thoughts reaching deep into Chihiro's mind.  Chihiro was unconscious by the time the thing was done.

  "Send her back to the spirit world, Oh Great Master!!"  the creature cried as a black whirlwind formed around Chihiro's unconscious body, bringing her back to the place she was in, six long years ago.

  The thing laughed as it reviewed Chihiro's memory.  "Foolish girl!!  Sanato!!  Follow her into the spirit world and report back to me when something interesting happens."

  A black imp, formed around the shadow's feet, shrieking while tiny, but impossibly strong chains were formed around its legs.

  "To ensure that you won't run away."

  The imp disappeared with the whirlwind, following Chihiro back to the spirit world where she learnt the will to fight and live…
