I was walking out of the orphanage, only to be stopped by the workers. "Where do you think your going?!" They demanded. I grew up for 6 years in the orphanage, but ready to go. "I'm leaving... I can't stand it anymore. You guys don't even care about us! You let me get beaten up and Almost raped! I'm done!" I stormed out the door, as the worker shouted "You wouldn't last 2 days on the streets!" I rolled my eyes, as I started running, till I found the path to the world.

I reached the tunnel feeling the wind pulling me in. I ran through the tunnel, and across the field. "HAKU!" I shouted as I waved. I saw him. I know I did! But he didn't stop. I sighed. They were just starting to light the bathhouse up, or so I assumed, as I walked through the world, noticing the restaurants were lighting their lights. I approached the bridge and held my breathe as I crossed. I ducked under the nearest door, and walked down the stairs. I heard the workers shouting about how excited they were that I was back, and kept saying to go inform Haku. I smiled inwardly. I was so excited, to see him again if I'm being honest. I opened the door, to the boiler room. "Umm Hello?" I called into the room. "Excuse me are you Kamaji?!"

"Oh great, another human, just as the ... Chihiro!!" He said pulling me into a tight hug. "Hey... Can I get something to eat, before I disappear?" He handed me a bowl. "Good thing I never listen to Lin." I smiled weakly as I ate. "Thanks... So is Lin and Haku, around?" He nodded just as the door opened, and Lin appeared.

Which is when we hugged, and she took me up to the top floor. "So Sen what's going on with you, What are you doing back here?" Lin asked as we were on the last elevator. "I don't want to talk to about it... Not until I talk to Haku." I said as we went into the room. Lin whispered for me to wait before she went in and spoke to Haku before saying I can come in. I stepped in and looked to him softly. "Hello Haku." I said softly, as he looked to me. "Be careful Haku..." Lin said in a hushed tone, before she left. "It's good to see you Chihiro.. But I'm afraid you can't stay here..." I felt tears in my eyes as I said "Please don't send me away! I have no where else to go" I begged, which is when Haku came over and said "Why?"

I said "My parents died after we returned, I got sent to an orphanage... where they beat me and almost raped me... I spent 6 years, in that place enduring the abuse..." I cried. "I love you!" I blurted out to fast, to stop it. "I'm sorry..." I said. Haku placed a hand on my cheek. "I love you too Chihiro... But... I can't get to carried away with you right now..." I said "Why?"

I saw him take a deep breath in, before I said "Because I'm about to head into Mating season... I love you, You're my Mate, if you accept of course. But you're to fragile right now for me to take you But we will figure out a way to be with each other... I promise." I felt tears springing into my eyes, which caused Haku to pull me into his arms. "Hey Don't cry, honey..." He whispered.

Lin returned after that and said "Okay you two, dinner is ready. Will you two be taking it in your office?" Haku said "Yes." I looked to him, almost questioning him. "If you want of course..." I smiled and said "Of course." We sat and started eating quietly. "Lin will take a look at your bruises and stuff, after dinner. Then we'll discuss what job you would want."

I said "Is it possible to get my old job back??" He smiled small and said "Sure, But if you get uncomfortable, Lin and I could use help up here." "Deal. Thank you Haku... I really appreciate it." "Anytime." We ate dinner before Lin and I went into Haku's room, and I took off my top, despite feeling utterly embarrassed to be seen half naked in front of a women no less, but Lin had to check my bruises and injuries that were on my chest and body. Lin checked my injuries. "My god! Chihiro These are really sever..." Lin said, as she dropped a drop of something in water and mixed it up. "This is gonna hurt, but its what's needed to make sure you heal properly." Lin said, before putting the cloth on my chest, causing me to let out an ear piercing shriek. "LIN! CHIHIRO! LET ME IN! PLEASE!" I heard Haku shout. Lin yelled something as she continued cleaning my wounds as I screamed more. Haku broke down the door and ran over to me. "Dragon! Out!" Lin hissed as he sat at my head stroking my hair. "You'll be okay I promise." Haku whispered as Lin finished healing me. I must have fallen asleep after. I had to admit I was exhausted.
