"SEN! SEEEENNN!" The frog-men waved at her from the bridge. She ran
up to them with a large smile. "My my, how you've grown! Such a wonderful
young woman you are!" Chichiro blushed and bowed politely. "This is a
blessing! Finally.things will be happy again!" Chichiro looked up. "Happy?
Why? What's wrong here?!" One of the frog-men leaned forward. "You
see..after you left, Yubaba has given the business to Haku, so she can
spend her time with Bou. Haku has had a lonely heart..he's drinks, until he
falls down.he leaves for days on end! He's slowly killing his spirit!"
Chichiro's heart sank.he missed her.she had to find him! The other frog-
man took her into the Bath House gently. "Thanks for returning!" He
whispered into her ear.
Chichiro spent the first few moments meeting and greeting old friends. And seeked out Lin.who was once again scrubbing the old metal tub. And swearing up a storm. Chichiro stood over her and giggled. Rin looked up, and dropped her sponges. "Sen?! Is that you?! Oh my gods! You're back!" She lept up and gave her friend a tight hug. "I missed you.silly girl!" They cried, like sisters re-united. "We have to take you to Haku!!!" Rin grabbed Chichiro's arm and ran to the elevator.
They reached the top floor.and it was even more creepy since her last visit. Cracked vases, torn paintings.it was in ruins. Rin seemed a little uneasy. "I'll be down in the bathing area, holler if you need help." Chichiro was alone.she knocked on the heavy door.which slowly opened. She heard the sound of glass breaking, and ran towards the main room.
"Haku?!" Chichiro saw the drunken man before her. He was still the same. A few years older then herself, the same hair as well, only this time it hung like a curtain over his face. She smell of sake was thick in the air. "She-Sheeroow.*hic*" Haku stumbled towards a uneasy Chichiro, who by now, was backed against the wall. "Are you real?" He reached out and touched her cheek. His hand drew back as if it was burnt. He flipped the hair off his face and looked wide-eyed into her eyes. "You ARE real!!! I thought this was another illusion!" His arms wrapped around her....then he passed out.
