Yuniko- Okay I lost my Microsoft Word, so there might be grammar errors here, but it's okay I don't think it's gonna be many. Enjoy! Oh yeah in this chapter you might think Yubaba gave up easily but, there's a reason. You might be a Yubaba fan (Ahahahaha)so I just told you.

Addicted To Drago

When Will You Fulfil Your Promise?

"Chihiro look at this, it's a sock for cellphones and it's printed with dragons plus it's only 430 yen." Ayumi picked up the sock and showed Chihiro.

"Wow it's really cute. I think I'll get this one too." Chihiro exclaimed. She left to pay for the things she took happily with a smile in her face. Her two friends would like that smile to remain, but sadly Chihiro's smile only last for a short while.

"She like it huh?" Kaji asked eyeing Chihiro.

"Yes. Kaji...?" Ayumi stared at the floor, her bangs covering her eyes.

"What is it Ayumi?" Kaji asked her worriedly, he can tell something is bothering her. "Ayumi?" he said her name softly.

"Do you like my hair? I cut it, but you haven't said a word about it!" Ayumi looked up again with a fake smile, she tried to act cheerfully but Kaji saw through it. Kaji put his hands in her shoulder and stared at her worrying, but then he decided he shouldn't force itout of her.

"I really like it, it's almost up to your ears. (you know Riku's hair form DN Angel? It's like that) your bangs are longer it's really cute." Kaji complimented letting go of her shoulder, he gave her a reassuring smile as if telling her, 'you can tell me'.

"Hey guys c'mon. We're going to the Movie House next right?" Chihiro came up beside them, her smile half gone.

"Un. Let's go Kaji." Ayumi pulled Kaji along smiling at him.

"Wow that was really great! I liked it when he told her he loves her. It was really sweet!" Ayumi exclaimed with a cute smile, remembering the romantic movie they saw.

"Yeah...it was really great." Chihiro smiled faintly. How she wish Haku would come and tell her he love her. Kaji saw that Chihiro was a bit sad.

"Okay let's go to the arcade and play till wedrop, c'mon let's go!" He said cheerfully.

"Yeah let's!" Chihiro gave a real smile this time. She loves arcade, it really makes her forget things for a while. They walked to the arcade, and when they arrived Chihiro pulled her two friends to where the dance pad is and danced. Kaji's score was 'Perfect' and the two girls's score was 'Very good'. After tiring themselves they went to where the crowd was gathered up and played the most talked-about game Initial D, as usual Kaji won against Chihiro even though he was the chaser, and Chihiro won against Ayumi. Kaji is really popular, by his looks, his skill in driving even though it was just an arcade game, and he's the starplayer of their basketball team.

"It's been a great day. I really had fun, thanks guys." Chihiro hugged Ayumi.

"I'm glad you had fun Chihiro, I had lots of fun too." Ayumi smiled at Chihiro.

"Well then dragon-girl, we'll see you tomorrow. Don't think about things too much okay? Oyasumi." Kaji tapped Chihiro's head and left with Ayumi. Their house is the same way.

"I'm home. Mom? Mooom? Mother!" Chihiro called out but no one is answering. Shrugging it off she went to her room and threw herself in bed. She stared at the cold ceiling above her, just like she did this morning. She sighed and went to her balcony. She could see the path that leads to the old building from five years ago. She had attempted to go through the tunnel for so many time, but she stopped herself remembering he's promise to her.

"I'm fine, I got my name back."

"Will we meet again sometime?"

"Sure we will."

"Promise!"

"Promise...now go and don't look back."

"Sigh...right promise. It's been five years now, he still hasn't come." Chihiro sat down and leaned on the wall with sad eyes staring at the horizon, thinking of her beloved dragon. She always sit at the balcony and everytime, she sees his face in the horizon. Tears slowly streamed in her pinkish cheeks. Everytime she sits in her empty balcony she always cries softly. She really miss him...and the Spirit World. Even though the work is tough, it's fun as well. Especially when she and Lin get to chat with the costomers, she enjoys hearing all sorts of stories. Finally her sulking ended.

"Chihiro we're home! Come down here, we got news for you!" Her mom shouted calling for her.

"I'm coming." Chihiro shouted back.

"What's up mom, what's this news you have?" Chihiro asked a bit annoyed.

"You're gonna freak Chihiro. Your father got promoted!" her mother exclaimed excitedly.

"Really? That's great I'm so happy for you Daddy!" Chihiro hugged her father. She really was happy about it.

"Thank you hon. And guess what? We'll be moving to Tokyo!" her father said surprisingly.

Chihiro gasped "What? But we can't I don't want to! No we're not going!" Chihiro yelled in disapproval.

"But why honey, you loved Tokyo you've always wanted to go there, and now you get to live there." her mother said.

"NO I DON'T WANT TO!" Chihiro yelled crying.

"But we have to Chihiro. Wether you like it or not!" her father said a bit angrily.

"NO! NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY I'M NOT GOING!" Chihiro shouted crying, she run back to her room.

Chihiro weep bitter tears of anger and sadness. She didn't want to leave, she doesn't want to leave her only friends, and she definitely don't want to leave the place where the entrance to the Spirit World is. She cried herself to sleep. "When will you fulfil your promise...Haku?"

"Lord Kohaku good morning!" a frog greeted the River Spirit

"Good morning." Haku greeted back. His steely eyes isn't steely anymore, now it's sad eyes. His hair is longer now, it's tied in a low ponytail and he's much taller now. Haku is now the head honcho of the Bathhouse.

(((Flashback)))

"Yubaba, I'm quitting my apprenticeship with you." Haku said coldly.

"Oh but your mine Haku, I got your name and your contract." Yubaba laughed waving Haku's contract around.

"No...I don't belong to you and you don't have my name. My name is, Nigihagami Kohaku Nushi." Haku said seriously.

Yubaba gasp and the contract in her hand burned. "How? It's that girl isn't it?" Yubaba growled.

"Yes Chihiro helped me. Are you not going to pack yet?" Haku smiled. "You do remember our contract rigth? If I remember my name you will leave this place meaning you will quit as the head master. You'll have to go or you'll suffer the consequence, and you know very well what that consequence is." he step forward.

"Grrr...That contract will be terminated if you vanish! Now be gone River Spirit!" Yubaba attacked Haku but it didn't even dazed Haku. "I remember everything now. From the very beginning of my time, what I am, who I am, and what I can do. The moment I remembered my name is the moment when I got ALL my powers back. Leave now or I'll have to force you." Haku threatened Yudada.

"Heh Fine. Again, very clever Haku. I'll leave but I'll take all that I want." Yubaba stared coldly.

"Take anything you want. By the end of the day you will tell everyone about you departure." Haku said then left.

"Everyone!" Haku shouted trying to get everyone's attention and he did, everyone looked up and saw Yubaba beside him. "Today Yubaba will leave this Bathhouse." he stepped back signaling Yubaba to say her goodbye.

"Sigh, all of you must be happy to hear that. Yes I will leave today, but that doesn't mean you're all free. Haku will take over the Bathhouse. So this is goodbye now, humph!" Yubaba irritatedly said.

"YEEEEY!"

"ALL RIGHT!"

"WORK'S GONNA BE EASIER!"

Everyone in the Bathhouse was happy. They knew Haku wasn't a bad spirit, rather he's a kind-hearted spirit. Yubaba went back to her room with Haku and took all her belonging and Baby with her, and left. After three weeks the top floor was completely different from before. The top floor was renovated, everything was from Haku's liking. Yubaba lived in another swamp, tenth stop from the Bathhouse, she had a new apprentice in her control named Leon, a shadow spirit.

(((End of flashback)))

Haku sat at his chair and sighed. "I wonder what she's doing rigth now, I can kinda hear her crying. Sigh I sure hope she's okay. I hope she still remembers me, I think she may be angry with me. I still haven't fulfil my promise, it's been five years." he closed his eyes and sighed. A knock on the door was heard, Haku opened his his to open it. "Are you going to mope again all day, Haku?" A woman said with a bit of annoyance in her voice.

"It's not like you're gonna be here to watch me mope all day. What do you need Lin?" Haku asked. He leaned his back in his chair and put his elbow in the side of it and rested his head in his hand. He stared at Lin waiting for her reply.

"I came to check up on you, they told me you were walking back and forth in the garden like an idiot. What is wrong with you Haku? You've been like this ever since. Geez if only you could see yourself, I'm sick of your moping around. Why don't you go to her like you promised you would? I'll take care of the Bathhouse till you go back, it'll be all rigth." Lin suggested. Lin was concern about him, and Chihiro.

"Maybe I'll do that. But how, how will I approach her, what will I say to her then?" he stood up and looked in the sky thinking...thinking of what he'll say to her if the time comes.

"Don't be stupid Kohaku. What will you say to her? Tell her how you feel of course." She said walking up beside him.

"Spirits and humans can never be." Haku said, a glimpse of sadness in his voice.

"It's not a matter of what can be or what can't be. All that matters is, your love for her." She said softly and understandingly.

"Hm, since when did you talk all mushy Lin? Ah since Neji came." Haku smirked eyeing Lin.

"Wha...? What are you talking about?" Lin blushed furiously.

"Ahehehe." Haku laughed softly. "I think I'd go. I'll fulfil my promise to her and tell her my feelings. And while I'm away I'll ask Neji to look after the Bathhouse. You'll like that huh Lin?" Haku smile as he walks up to his desk.

"Of...of course I'd like your idea of going, but you got the second park wrong." Lin blushed.

"Right, whatever Lin." Haku wrote a message on a piece of paper for Neji and gave it to a white bird. "I'll go tomorrow, inform the staff for me. Close the door when you leave, I'll take a nap now." Haku glanced at Lin then walked to his room.
