Chapter Two: Tears
"Wake up Chihiro!" called a voice from outside of Chihiro's room, "you'll be late for school."
"Like I'd want to miss that," Chihiro mumbled sarcastically to herself.
It was the starting of the school year. Chihiro hadn't been looking forward to it but it was now time to face the fact that she would have to go to school.
Chihiro got up from her bed and stretched. Why couldn't it still be summer Chihiro thought to herself? Chihiro walked aimlessly to her closet and looked at her clothes. What will I wear? She tired a lime green T-shirt and matching shorts. No, too tacky. Next, purple tank top and ruby shorts. No, way too dark. Finally, after going to ten outfits, Chihiro finally decided to where a yellow top, passion pink shorts and runners.
"Chihiro hurry up!"
"I know mom just wait."
Combing hair takes time mom, can't you just give me a second. Chihiro glanced at her reflection then ran out the door of her room. Now's the perfect time to use the banisters I just got to get there before my dad see me-
"I don't think so," called her father blocking her way, "use the stairs. That's what they're there for." "Fine," grumbled Chihiro.
"Smile a bit sweety. It's your first day, be happy. Don't you want to make any friends."
"No! They'll just be mean to me. I like my last school. I had friends there. Haven't I told you already that I don't care about it anymore? They will shun me."
"No they-"
"YES THEY WILL!"
Chihiro stormed off down the stairs and into the kitchen where she was confronted her mother. She held out a pink knapsack and a piece of toast. Chihiro resentfully took the piece of bread, stuffed it into her mouth, grabbed hold of her bag and stomped of towards the door.
"Have fun at school," Chihiro's mother called out.
"Don't worry, I will," Chihiro replied sarcastically.
"Why are you so mad? It will be fun Chihiro. Just walk in there and act yourself. They won't make fun of you. Why do you keep thinking that? It's not life the whole school will be against you, life is not like that."
"Easy for you to say."
"Well have a good-"
Chihiro's mother was caught off by the loud sound off the door slamming shut. Chihiro walked slowly, counting her steps. They will hate me, I know they will. It didn't take long for Chihiro to reach her school since it was only five minutes away from her house. She glared up at the cement colored walls and then to the other kids in the field. All of them were busy talking among themselves, smiling and showing each other mementos of their summer. A group of kids were busy playing soccer. The soccer ball flew back and forth from kid to kid either getting closer or further from their destination.
Chihiro started walking slowly. She approached the school and leaned against one of its hard cold walls looking at each of the other kids who would soon be her classmates. Before long, the bell rang and students began entering the school.
"Oh great," Chihiro muttered to herself as she entered the school and gazed at its hallways, "I'm lost."
Chihiro spent the next few minutes walking around looking for the head office. As she headed towards the entrance of the office, her eye caught a glimpse of a crowd of students at a piece of paper posted on one of the bulletin boards. Chihiro stood behind the crowd and waited for more people to disappear from the area before reading it herself.
"Look!" said a girl with pigtails, "I'm in room 24. Isako which room are you in?"
"I'm in...room 17."
"Oh, that's too bad. I was hoping we were in the same class."
Chihiro looked at the paper herself. I'm in room 17 as well. Chihiro looked at the Isako girl. She didn't look that mean but Chihiro didn't want to take any chances; she walked off to her class.
Things seemed to be going fine so far, Chihiro thought as she sat down at a desk at the back of the classroom. She looked around at her classmates who had already room 17 as well. A boy with glasses was busy talking to brown haired boy who seemed to be listening intently to what glasses boy had to say. However, through all the cheeriness in the room, two girls were busy talking amongst them and were distinctly pointing at Chihiro. Chihiro looked over in their direction and they dropped their hands. Taking a few times to look back at Chihiro, the girls started laughing and walked over to Chihiro.
"What's your name?" one of the girls sneered.
"Yeah. We haven't seen you before," the other added.
"You must be a loner or something sitting here alone, not associating, wearing out dated clothes."
"Leave me alone," spoke Chihiro but a sense of fear came over her; she began to tremble.
"You seem very insecure, trembling there, afraid are you?"
"Let's go then. I don't want to waste my time on this loner who's proven herself as a loser to. An insecure loser."
They stalked of laughing mockingly. A surge of hot liquid filled her eyes. Another girl confronted Chihiro with a group behind her.
"Go ahead, I don't care. You can make fun as me too," Chihiro spoke bitterly without looking to see who the person was, "I know, go ahead, start insulting me. I've been expecting it all summer. Well what are you waiting for? I don't have all day just do it-"
"Why would we want to insult you?" asked the girl. It was the same girl that Chihiro saw this morning.
"I know Isako," said another girl, "Oh I see. You've met them. I won't refer them to their names. They don't deserve to be called anything but snobs. My name is Sayuri."
"Why are you talking to me?" questioned Chihiro.
"Well," said another girl, "Don't you want friends? My name in Rikkiko"
"But I'm new here."
"Your point being?" asked the last girl standing behind Isako.
"My point being..nevermind. My name is Chihiro."
"Nice to meet you," replied Isako, "so tell us, where did you transfer from?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
"Ah! A good turnout it has been today Haku," spoke a voice.
"Yes Yu-baaba," replied a boy gazing off into the distance through a window.
"You may go now. I expect you to be back at dawn now get out of my sight."
Haku turned around and stared at Yu-baaba. His eyes glowed fiery red before he was pulled down into a mist of light. The light flew out the opened window and formed a long snake-like figure. Before long, scales of moonlight blue covered the beast and horns emerged from its bowed head. It spiraled in a circle a few times before flying away into the water vanishing from sight.
Yu-baaba looked out the window from where the mighty beast and plunged. However she did not care and walked away. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes. They darted all around the room in which she stood. The walls covered in jeweled pattern, the furniture all made for rosewood, pillows littered the floors and of course the remains of many chocolate boxes scattered the ground.
A piercing scream was then heard of the room ruptured and shook.
"Calm down my sweet. Mommy's here," she called as she rushed to the infant's room.
The aquatic dragon broke free from the water and soared towards the shore. It hovered over the beach before breaking into pieces. Its scales crumbled off and formed orbs of light that took off away from the creature. Soon, its once so long scaled body vanished leaving a boy in its place.
Haku slowly got to his feet and entered the crowed of people. However, they did not seem like people at a close view. In fact they were spirits roaming the markets shops eating at restaurants and touring at the place that a carnival would provide. Haku walked steadily through the crowds and ended up at a small shrine.
He walked casually and stood before the wooden structure. Slowly he took a bow and shut his eyes.
"Water, wind show me light, unlock the future of this night," Haku uttered.
A rush of wind surrounded him as green orbs circled and presented a sphere before him. Haku opened his and peered at the glowing sphere before him. With the sphere, an image appeared showing a hooded figure staggering in a woodland area. Blood was flowing down the figure's arm which had a silver bangle around its wrist. Then the sound of screaming shot through the tranquil scene causing the figure to run faster and faster within the forest. Another, who confronted the figure, held out a clawed hand grasping the figure by the neck. The sharp claws made only a thin line of blood but it seemed pain was coming over the figure. An excruciating force struck Haku's body flowing within his bone. He yelled out in pain and agony before collapsing to the ground.
