Absolutely nothing, I try to avoid the subject as much as possible.

Chapter 21
The Decision has to be made
~*~Previously~*~
"You little brat wouldn't dare." Yubaaba said. I looked up into the sky where she was, and saw Rin raised helplessly in the air, with a knife held at her throat by an invisible hand.
"If you break it, the girl dies, and we both know how precious she is to you. Now hand me that necklace, before I slit her throat open.
Rin.oh no.now what am I going to do.I can't just break it and let Yubaaba kill her.but I can't give Yubaaba Kohaku either.but what choice than do I have.
~*~Present~*~
My decision has to be made soon.or else.I'm afraid of what Yubaaba will do if she looses patience.it's never good.but what.should.I.do.
"You rotten little brat, if you don't hurry up, I think I'll just kill Rin and take the jewel from you anyways." Yubaaba said with a glint of malice in her eyes. Her laughter echoed through out the battle field that the place had become, but non stopped their yelling, their war cries, or their fighting to hear it. I could feel my fingers clench over the iron bar as fury welled up inside of me.
"If you do, than I will break it faster than you could kill me." I said with such conviction, my body shook. Her laughter stopped short as she looked at me. I looked over at Rin and saw a small line of blood drip down her neck.
"Your time runs short, which will it be? I.." Her voice was cut off with a shrill screech ran through her mouth instead of the dark words she had been planning to say. Her concentration was lost. Rin began to fall.
"No! Rin!" I screamed as I took a step forward to run, but stopped when I saw a blur of metallic silver skin through the air with sharp precision and in no time, Nigiyako was at my side and set Rin down at my side. I looked up at Yubaaba and saw a sword through her shoulder.
"You shall not hurt Mistress Rin." Came the familiar but angry voices that belonged to Nagoyaka and Nushi. Soon both Sky spirits were at my other side. Yubaaba looked furious. Then a small smile crept to her face and she withdrew the blade that Nushi had thrown. Not a single drop of blood fell, and if it weren't for the cut in the cloth that the sword had torn through, I would not have believed that it had ever gone through her shoulder as it had.
"Break it now Chihiro." Rin whispered. Her hand slipped into mine as a sign of encouragement. I nodded. She let go as I took the Iron bar in both my hands and raised it to the sky.
"My patience has worn out you little whelp of a girl. Now you shall die!" Yubaaba yelled, she threw the sword with precision. I ignored her words, and just as I hit the stone that shattered to thousands of pieces, I felt something sharp pass and eventually lodge into my chest.
What.what happened.it's the sword.but.but.now what.how.I mena.
I look up at Yubaaba. She smiles. I could see the evil laughter swell within her body and slowly bubble over. I fell to my knees and could feel water cover my shoulder as Rin cried. She held me in her arms.
"Kohaku.you're free now." I whispered as I saw a boy, only but a head higher than me, a lean masculine body, with dark green hair and his back to me. I could see him flex his hands, as if he couldn't believe what he saw. Something was wrong though.he wasn't all there. Not quite. He looked.almost transparent.
But, that's not right.maybe.I'm just imagining it.
I inhaled deeply and felt warm liquid rise and begin to flow down my chin. It hurt to breath. Kohaku quickly turned and I saw pain cry out through is lush emerald eyes.
"Chihiro! No.it.no!" He cried. He was at my side in an instant. I felt him touch the warm liquid that I had been shaping my face and flowing down my neck. I saw crimson red syrup on his fingers as he withdrew them.
"Kohaku.I'm so glad.after all.of this.I was able to keep my promise.I was able.to free you." I said. I could feel more blood rise in my chest. It felt like acid. I lifted my hand up in the air.
I need to touch him.I want.I want to make sure he's alive.I want to make sure.that he's o.k. .I need.to know.I need to know.if I kept my promise.or if.it's just a ad illusion.
Kohaku grabbed my hand in his before my strength failed me. He was there. I could feel his warm skin touching mine. I could feel his blood run through his hand. He laced his fingers in mine and with his other hand he brushed away the hair that clung to my face. Locks of his dark moss green hair feel into his face but he didn't brush them away. Nor did he bother brushing away the clear liquid that fell down his cheek.
"Kohaku.what's wrong.didn't..didn't I do everything right.I tried.I really did.did I do.some.something wrong?" I asked sadly.
What did I do.I thought I did everything right.I couldn't have done anything wrong.I just couldn't have.what did I do.maybe it was something.I didn't do.
"My dear Chihiro. You did nothing wrong. You were grand. You were brave. I couldn't have one it as well as you." He began to say more.
"Kohaku?" I whispered.
Why is everything going black.Kohaku.I can't.I don't understand what your saying.it's all slurred.Kohaku.
Authors Ending Note: Ok, I know what you're all thinking.Chihiro died, so now this chapter sux, how low can you get? Well, rest assured peoples, I can guarantee that if you read my next chapter you will be so overwhelmed with joy, you'll all gladly forgive me. So please keep reading!
P.S. I'm hopping to post my next chapter this Wednesday, but don't hold me to that fully, and sorry if I don't!
