Together Again

Zeniba nodded. "This is what happened..." she paused and looked around the room. She sighed and waved her hands around calling forth her magic. The bouncing heads came forward and each were turned into a chair.
Yu-baba frowned but said nothing.
"Please. Have a seat," Zeniba directed. So Chihiro, Lin, and No Face took a seat and waited patiently for her to start her story. Zeniba waved her hands again and out of no where, a blue chair appeared. She sat down and folded her hands in her lap.
Chihiro looked over at No Face. "It's nice to see you again." He pointed up at her ponytail. "Oh, this," Chihiro said, fingering the hair band. "Yah... I still have it."
Zeniba cleared her throat. "Now where was I... Oh yes! Haku!" Zeniba looked at her sister. "Sister dear, would you be so kind as to show me Haku's contract?"
"Why should I?" she grumbled.
"I see then." Zeniba waved her hands again and a piece of paper slipped out of the filing cabnit and into her hands. "Ah, there we go." She handed the paper to Chihiro. "It says here that Haku's contact ended 3 days ago. He was here for exactly seven years to work that off."
Chihiro nodded. "It was about seven years ago when the Kohaku river was filled in."
"And that's why he came to me," Yu-baba said. "He had no where else to go."
"Until now," Zeniba said. "Three days ago Haku came to me and asked me how he could return to the human world as a human, and not a spirit."
"You know how to do that!" Yu-baba yelled, slamming her fists on her desk.
"Of course, Yu-baba," Zeniba smiled. "See, where as you love to collect money, I love to collect knowedge."
Yu-baba grumbled at her twin's words and sat back down with a scrowl on her face.
"You see, for a spirit to enter the living world that spirit must be reborn."
"And because your reincarnated," Lin started, "You forget everything in your past life."
Zeniba nodded. "I told Haku this, but he didn't care. He said he would fins Chihiro anyway." She paused. "It is true that back in the far depths of a Reincartes mind, those special moments of the past life still remain. They are moments that can never really be forgotten. Such as Haku's case. He found what he was looking for, if he remembers it or not."
Chihiro nodded sadly. "So he remembers me, but doesn't." She sighed. "It's so complicated."
Lin patted her on the back. "It's alright, Sen." She turned to address Zeniba. "Is there any way for Haku to regain his memories?"
Zeniba nodded. "Because he was a spirit, Haku still holds some of those special powers. Of course, he can't take his spirit form anymore, but things such as strength and mind." She paused to take a breath. "When Haku asked the Gods to be reborn, he was granted his wish. And as he made the wish, he kept the thought of Chihiro in his mind. That's why he was able to find her." She smiled kindly and looked lovingly at Chihiro. "Love is a strong emotion, Chihiro. Only you can help him remember."
"But how do I do that?"
"You need to get close to him. Start your relationship over. Talk to him about things such as spirits. But I warn you, don't tell him directly of this place and us." She laughed lightly. "You may bring his memory back, or he might think you crazy. That would not help the situation."
Chihiro nodded. She stood up and hugged Zeniba. "Thank you, Granny."
"Your welcome, Chihiro." The old lady hugged her back.
She stood up with determination. "Now I just have to get him to remember!"
"Um... Sen..." Lin started. "But how do you plan to go home?"
Chihiro blinked thinking about it. "Crap! I forgot! It's Night and the Field is covered in water now!! ARG!"
Everyone in the room except Yu-baba smiled.
"You can leave in the morning," Lin said. "You can stay here so we can catch up on the past few years."
"Wait a minute!" Yu-baba shouted. "She's a human and she was trespassed into the spirit world. She will have to be punished."
Zeniba gave her sister an odd look. "Sister, if you touch one hair on her, I swear, you will live to regret it."
"And what do you plan on doing if I do?" She glared at her.
Zeniba smiled. "I know a lot more spells then you, Sister. Remember that. I can do much more then what you know."
Yu-baba frowned and sat down in her chair, turning it to face away from them. "Fine. Go away. But if your still here in the morning there will be hell to pay."
Chihiro smiled and hugged Lin. Then a thought came to her. "Oh no!"
"What is it?" Lin asked concerned.
"I have school tomarrow! I can't stay up all night!"
Lin smiled. "That's ok. We'll talk for a while then I'll put you to bed."
Chihiro smiled. "Ok. Thanks, Lin."
"Chihiro," Zeniba said getting the girls attention. "I hope I've been able to help."
Chihiro hugged the old woman. She knew they were about to depart. "You have, Granny! Thank you!"
"It was nice seeing you again." She patted her on the head. "You've grown to be a beautiful young lady, Chihiro."
Chihiro blushed. "Thanks."
"Well, I have to be going now. Me and Yu-baba can only stay in the same room together for a short period of time." She smiled when she heard her sister snort. "You take care child."
"Oh, I will!" Chihiro said.
"And take care of Haku for all of us. I hope everything works out for you two."
Chihiro nodded. "I'll miss you."
"Maybe we'll see each other again. Who knows what fate has in store of us." She hugged the girl once more then turned to face NO Face. "We're about to leave."
He nodded and approached Chihiro. He made his little groan sound.
"It was good seeing you, too!" She hugged the spirit. She pulled away from him. "Go now. Zeniba needs you."
He nodded and moved to Zeniba's side.
"Farwell, everyone!" In one movement of her arm, they were gone.
"Bye..." Chihiro whispeared .
Lin patted her on the shoulder. "Cheer up! Come one! Lets go. Kamaji will be happy to see his granddaughter again."
Chihiro smiled. "Yah.. I've missed him to. Lets go." They started to walk out of the office, but Chihiro turned around. "Um... Yu-baba. It was nice seeing you again. And I thank you for letting me stay the night. I promise I will be gone first thing tomorrow morning."
"Whatever."
Chihiro sighed. Her and Lin walked out the doors and headed for the elevator.
Yu-baba turned her chair back around once they had left. She waved her hand and the heads bounced back to life. "Sen... Chihiro... Welcome back." She did not smile. But she was glad to see the child's face again. She was the only one who had outsmarted her, and broke the contract early.
****
well.. there ya go.. another chapter posted. I really wanted to get Kamaji in the story, but I don't want to drag the story out. This is a H/C love fic. She needs to hurry up and get back to her own time and talk to Haku!! GAR.... If only I had the time to write.
To tell you all the truth, I have no idea how I'm going to get him to remember, but By-GOLLY! He will remember by the time I'm done with this!!!
