Haku smiled at Chihiro as she started to fall asleep. How she can sleep like that is beyond me. He thought as he tried to make the cuffs more comfortable. Chihiro smiled as she watched him. Suddenly she remembered something.
"Hey, Haku." She said, making him jump. "Your left cuff...I don't think it's closed properly." She said as she squinted, trying to see if she had seen right.
Haku looked at her confused before looking at the cuff. He could just barley see it, but Chihiro was right..it wasn't closed all the way. He smiled as he tried to move his right hand over in order to open it. After a while, he was able to open the left cuff. Using his left hand, he opened the other, and rubbed his wrists to get the blood flowing again.
Chihiro smiled when he had gotten the cuffs off. Good. I thought that I was seeing things. She thought as Haku moved freely in the small space he had.
"That feels so much better." He said with a smile, as he tried to find a way to open the cage door. It didn't take him long to fine how to open the door. It was much simpler to open this cage, then Yubaba's had been. Making sure that no one was looking, he crossed the narrow hall, to Chihiro's cage.
"Now the problem is how to get you out." HE said, as he touched the cuffs, but pulled back his hand.
"What's the matter?" Chihiro asked as she watched him rub his forefinger with his thumb.
"Oh, it's nothing." He said as he got on his knees. "We just might be here for a while."
*~*~*~*
Kale looked out the window towards the bathhouse. He sighed as he twirled the green glass sphere in his hand. Aiko was standing in the corner, waiting for orders..her eyes held no expression in them. Kale sighed again as he waited for Kafu to get back from Yubaba's. Suddenly, Kafu rushed in, transformed, and bent over to catch his breath.
"I got some bad news." He said sadly, knowing that he'd get into trouble.
"And what would that be?" Kale asked, not having much patience at the moment.
"Yubaba is with her sister. Yubaba wanted to know where Haku and Chihiro were. They were supposed to be back in her office by sun down today." Kale didn't say anything for a long time.
"Ok. I'll handle it. I need you to move Haku into the dungeon on the other side on the hall way. I don't care how you get him there, as long as he's alive." He said as he took the blue sphere out of his pocket. "Don't move him until I give you word. Got it?" He asked in an agitated voice.
"Yes sir." Kafu answered as Kale walked towards the dungeons.
*~*~*~*
Haku had been trying to get Chihiro's cuffs off, but every time he tried, he always got zapped. He sat there looking at it before he heard the door unlocking. He ran back into his cell, and shut the cuffs, but not all the way, just to make sure that who ever was coming in that they thought that he couldn't move. He got done right as kale walked around the corner. She smiled when he saw Chihiro try to get free.
"Don't worry, my dear, this won't hurt a bit." He said as he pulled out the blue sphere, and bent down to touch her. Chihiro tried to get as far away from it as possible, but as soon as it touched her hand, she froze.
"CHIHIRO!!" Haku yelled, pretending to play at his cuffs.fighting the urge to break free. Kale smiled when he heard Haku yelling.
"Oh don't worry, boy, she can't hear you anymore." He said as he backed away, letting Haku see Chihiro. Her eyes were glazed over. Haku stared at her with disbelief.
"So... You're the one that did that to her." He said more to himself then Kale. Kale nodded as he unlocked the cage, and Chihiro mindlessly walked out. Haku sent a death glare at kale as he and Chihiro walked out. Before Chihiro walked out of the door, she gave Haku a smile that sent shivers down his spine. After she walked out, and Kale re locked the door, Haku broke the cuffs off a little too rough but he didn't care. He had to get to Yubaba and Zeniba before Chihiro did.
*~*~*~*
Yubaba and Zeniba weren't walking together. One was at Zeniba's house, waiting for a signal, and one was and one was walking towards the building that Kale was in.
*~*~*~*
Haku had found a back way out, but he had to make it to the front first. When he got there, he saw Yubaba walking up towards the door. He ran out, and stopped her just in time.
"Where in the world were you?!" Yubaba yelled as Haku practically dragged her into the forest right as Chihiro came out of the building.
"Haku what -"Yubaba started, but Haku covered her moth with his hands. (AU: Brave isn't he? ^_^) Haku watched as Chihiro stopped, and looked around. She looked in their direction, but didn't make any movements towards them. She looked forward again, and started to walk towards Zeniba's house. As soon as Chihiro got out of hearing distance, Haku got up, and walked out. Yubaba brushed herself and looked up to Haku, who was now taller then she was.
"Haku, what is going on?" She asked a little loudly. Haku pushed his finger against his lips, hoping that Kale couldn't see them.
"Chihiro is out to find you and Zeniba for Kale, to make sure that you stay out of his way." He said in a low tone. Yubaba looked at him.
"Well, we'd better get off, and warn Zeniba." She said as she started to turn into her bird form, but Haku stopped her.
"No.We have to run there. We can't fly, or Chihiro will see us. And trust me, she can run faster then you or I could fly, even if we were one person." Haku explained as he started to stretch out his legs, which didn't take very long. Yubaba rolled her eyes. "Sheesh. Well you'd better not run too fast." She said as she just sat there, waiting for him to finish.
*~*~*~*
Chihiro had finally reached Zeniba's house. Once she reached the door, she didn't even bother knocking. She just went straight in. Zeniba jumped to see Chihiro there, but automatically noticed that something was wrong. And it wasn't very hard to see what it was.
"Chihiro." Zeniba said as she looked at Chihiro, square in the eye. Chihiro smiled.
OK. There's another chapter. I hope I can upload soon. I have a few readers helping me ot, so it's getting there. Ok. Tell me what you think.
