Return to Me
By Dark Mage
Author's Note: okay, I finally decided to write a Spirited Away fic. Hope you like it. I personally think it's kind of lame, but...
Disclaimer: Spirited Away belings to the almighty Hayao Miyazakai, Studio Ghibli, Disney, and whoever else. I only own the plot, a few characters, and the Dark World.

Chihiro woke with a start. She didn't know why, she was awake so suddenly, she just was. Something had to be wrong.
She jumped out of bed and put on a jacket. Something was compelling her to go back someplace she hadn't been in four years. Something was badly wrong.

Haku struggled against the ropes that bound him. He shifted to dragon form, figuring that if his bigger size didn't break the ropes, then he might be able to gnaw them off. No such luck. The ropes burned his mouth and made him bleed. He shifted back to human, the coppery tang of blood in his mouth.
Someone began to carry him. He didn't know who it was, or where they were taking him. They weren't very gentle, jostling Haku every step of the way. He couldn't see anything because of the blindfold they had put over his eyes, but he could tell it was night, for he felt no sunlight on his bare arms and back.
Suddenly, pain filled every space in Haku's body. The person, or creature, or whatever it was, carrying him struggled to keep walking. Suddenly Haku knoew what they were doing to him. They were going to take him to the Dark World.

The path leading up to the entrance was much more overgrown than the last time. The grass almost came up to Chihiro's knees. She labored on, despite the reluctance of the grass and bushes to let her through.
Finally Chihiro was at the entrance, and walking through. It was even creepier at night than during the day. No light could be seen at either end. She shivered and zibbed her jacket up.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, she was on the other side. Chihiro had expected to see the fields of grass, and farther away, the seemingly endless stretch of restuarants. Instead she saw the river.
It was vast and dark, and undoubtedly cold. Chihiro shivered again, and wondered how she would get across, when the gangplank of a large boat lowered with a bang next to her.
"Of course!" Chihiro said to herself, thinking back to a previous adventure. "There was a ferry to cross the river. Maybe I can take that across."
Just as Chihiro was about to board the ferry, someone grabbed her roughly from behind and pulled a rough sack over her head. Her hands were tied with a length of cord. There was an sweet smell about the sack on her head, but she couldn't identify it. Chihiro started to feel sleepy, and then everything went black.

So, how did you like it? Should I continue? Please review and I'll review yours!
