Spirited Away Fan Fiction Part 2
Chapter 10- Chihiro
Back to Haku:
Haku found an inn and stayed there for awhile.
If I stayed here, Nairobi will come here for the show… And I'll have Chihiro back, he thought, but he felt a twinge in his heart, what if Chihiro doesn't forgive me for taking too long to find her? Wrestling with his mind, he swallowed his doubts, she'll forgive me, I know she will.
He waited in the town for a week, he was getting restless. What if they didn't come? Then what? Haku would have to go on and hope he would somehow stumble upon this Wonders of the World. Then, he heard a commotion outside, looking out the inn's window, he saw a crowds of people lining up at the street, while wagons entered the town. Finally…, he thought, I'll have Chihiro back, his heart soared at the thought of having Chihiro back at his side.
Haku ran down out of the inn and watched as the wagons parked themselves at the town's center, a huge meadow with trees surrounding the clearing.
"Chihiro! Chihiro!" Haku yelled, unable to control himself as he ran through the crowds, not caring who or what he bumped into. Reaching the closest wagon, he looked inside, animals growled and neighed at him from inside, "Chihiro?" No response. He ran to the next and the next wagon, until he ran straight into a grumpy Glynis.
"What the heck are you doing here?" Glynis hissed, then stopped and recognized Haku, "You!" Glynis's eyes burned, "How did you get here?" Haku turned into his dragon form and pushed passed Glynis, knocking the snake spirit flat on his butt. "Hey! Get back here!" He stood up and ran off towards Haku.
Genmi spotted her brother run past her, "Glynis! What on earth is the matter?!" Glynis paid no mind to his sister. Genmi put down her load of food for the animals and ran to catch up. "Glynis!" She stopped short as she saw the river spirit flying high in the sky, looking in every wagon, "Oh! Is that!?" She ran off to get Nairobi as he brother tried to hit Haku with a stick he had picked up from the ground.
Rogue the huge dog saw Haku as an intruder and ran to help Glynis. The dog barked and jumped in the air, trying very hard to get a hold of Haku with its massive jaws.
Nairobi stepped out of his wagon, Aega on his arm and Genmi pointing to Haku in the sky. "I should have known that the Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi wouldn't give up his human." He shook his head. The crowd of people surrounding the parade of wagons sat back in horror, not sure what to do as they watched Haku fight and search.
"Stop Rogue, he's going to hurt him!" Aega cried tugging Nairobi's sleeve. But, he just shook his head.
"Genmi, what are Hira and Chihiro doing right now?" Nairobi asked the female snake spirit.
"Ehhh, well sir… they are sitting in the front wagon," Genmi said.
"Not in their cages?" He asked.
"No…, "Genmi shook her head. Nairobi rubbed his chin.
Chihiro and Hira heard a commotion outside their wagon, "Should we go and see what that is?"
Hira shrugged, picking at one of his fingernails, "Don't care."
Chihiro looked out of the wagon and gasped, "Hira! It's Haku! He's here!" Tears formed down her face, she jumped out of the wagon, and Hira reluctantly followed her out.
She froze in fear as she saw Rogue trying to bite Haku, "Oh, no! Haku! Haku!" She called to him.
Haku instantly saw her and flew with lightning speed towards her, turning into a human as he touched the ground and embraced her. "Chihiro, I've missed you. I'm sorry that I took so long trying to find you…"
"It's alright, Haku. I forgive you," She buried her face into his shoulder, tears staining his shirt.
Hira called out as Rogue came pounding towards Haku and Chihiro, murder in his eyes, "Look out!" Hira put himself between the two and Rogue. Flames leapt up out of the ground, surrounding Hira, but that didn't stop Rogue from running straight into him. Pain shot up Hira's arm as he realized that Rogue had bitten him, not letting go of his hold.
"Let go you darn dog!" He hit Rogue, trying to make the dog release his hold, the dog was badly burned from Hira's demon flames. The light finally left the dog's brown eyes as it died the hold on Hira's arm released. Blood poured from the wound in Hira's arm and he cursed to himself.
"Hira!" Chihiro pulled herself from Haku's arms and ran to Hira's side. Aega came to his side also, Genmi following behind. Glynis and Nairobi stood back waiting to see what would happen next. Haku crouched down beside Chihiro.
"We need to bind the wound. Genmi, get my bag from my wagon, hurry, girl!" Aega shouted.
"I'm fine…, "Hira said weakly, trying not to look at his wound, he had always felt woozy in the presence of blood. His head spun and the pain in his arm was excruciating.
"No, you're not," Aega hissed at him as Genmi ran to get her bag.
"Thank you for saving Haku and me," Chihiro said, giving Hira a kiss to the forehead. He smiled up at her weakly before passing out. Haku felt a slight jealousy toward Hira, but stomped it down, after all, he was grateful that this demon had saved him and most importantly, Chihiro from getting hurt.
