The wedding.
Here I stand, before Kohaku. His hands holding mine.
We stare into each other's eyes.
He gives me a re assuring squeeze and I let out a smile.
The vows.
I start "I never thought I would see you again Kohaku after all these years, I never thought that I would be here today, standing here before you looking into your beautiful jade eyes that always comforted me, I never thought I would be standing on this spot, knowing that our baby lies within me, but there is one thing that I always knew, was that I loved you, and that a part of me wasn't really with me, and then I realized that it had always belong with you," I smile.
The priest looked at Kohaku.
I looked over at him. He was smiling.
He started "Chihiro where ever you are, where ever you go, a part of me remains forever with you, I love you Chihiro, very much, every afternoon that I stood there watching the tunnel, I never gave up on us, I just kept holding on I just kept holding on after I was hit by the sleeping spell, every afternoon, everyday, I didn't think you would return to this world, but here you are infront of me beautiful as ever, glowing so specially, because of what lies within you, I love you Chihiro, my heart is yours to keep," he ended smiling.
I smiled and gave Kohaku a re assuring smile.
When you walked into my life
And knocked on my heart's door,
I never dreamed you held the key,
To a world of love and more,
And once that you stepped in,
How was I to know,
You'd decorate my life with love,
And make my heart your home.
The priest said "Kohaku and Chihiro Nushi, do you swear to keep the throne of the Spirited World forever out of reach of evil,"
Kohaku looked at me we both answered together "We will do our best to keep the throne in the hands of the good, we promise that we will try our best to,"
"Do you accept the responsibility of King and Queen to Auburya," the priest asked again.
Kohaku and I answered. "Togeather we will provide happiness to this land, we promise to rule this land as King and Queen,"
The priest laid one of his hands on my head, and the other on Kohaku.
"I now announce the King and Queen of Aubruya,"
The priest took the crown for the queen from Zeniba.
He placed it on my head.
I stared at Kohaku.
He smiled and bowed his head slightly. Acknowledging my royalty.
I smile.
The priest turned to Kohaku and placed the crown on his head.
The crowns weren't exactly traditional human type. Usually it's pure gold spiked up and filled with diamonds.
This crown was different it was simple, it was more like a tiara.
A tiara that looked a lot like a Greek crown.
Made of real gold and silver swirls.
When I see your smile,
Theres a view of all my dreams,
All my hopes and wishes,
And a love for eternity,
When you put your arms around me,
I've never felt so much,
Until the day I found you,
I never knew real love.
The shapes shaped in leaves were slightly pointed out.
Kohaku's crown was similar, but the leaves on his crown were more pointed out.
Making his crown look manly where mine was feminine .
I smiled and slightly bowed.
Kohaku smiled. He mouthed 'I love you,'
I mouthed back "I love you too,"
The priest whispered for us to turn around.
There we stood facing the community of Auburya.
They all clapped and cheered.
"I give you King Kohaku and Queen Chihiro," The priest announced.
I had suggested a Christian wedding as I am a Christian. I got this partly from my parents, every Sunday we went to church.
Kohaku and the rest of Auburya weren't really sure what Christian meant.
I just told them that it was something that I believed in, like how I believed in Kohaku well similar anyway.
Luckly we found another human in the spirit world that could be our priest.
Although, we weren't really sure why there was another human in this world.
No longer any questions were asked. So it ended up that we'd have a Christian wedding.
Kohaku and I smiled to them.
'ouch,' what's going on. The baby is moving, it hurts, it's coming.
I feel so light headed.
I tip slightly, Kohaku's strong arms keeping me up.
Everyone gasped.
"What's wrong," Kohaku asked.
I look in his eyes and whisper "The baby's coming Kohaku,"
Kohaku's eyes widened.
He turned his head around, eyeing Rin and Kamaji.
They slowly stood up from their seats and rushed over.
"Lady Chihiro are you okay," the priest asked.
I'll stand beside you always,
And give you all my love,
I could never leave you,
Even when the times are tough,
To only you I'll make this promise,
And know you can always believe,
That for as long as I live,
You'll be all I need.
"The baby's coming," Kohaku said.
Kohaku used his magic to lift Chihiro so she sat on Kamaji's back.
Kohaku held Chihiro's hand as Kamaji walked out of the place.
The on lookers just watched, bowing as we walked back down the hall.
Once we were outside, Kohaku transformed into his dragon form.
Rin held on to me, as I laid on Kohaku's back.
Zeniba said. "Kohaku, my hut, I'll see you there," she said and just vanished.
Everything was happening so fast. Everyone were staring, all the people were rushing outside. I think at one stage the door was going to split apart.
So here I laid on Kohaku, head resting on Rin's lap.
"Shh, just breath Chihiro," Rin kept on saying.
She held my hand.
I could have swore I heard Rin swear a little bit. I think it was me squeazing her hand so tight.
Anyway, Kohaku took off.
Somehow, between breathing and looking at the lights that shined throughout Abruya.
I felt as though as if, I was dreaming, like the pain was just suddenly gone.
Soon enough, Kohaku landed.
Both Kohaku and Rin, rushed me inside Zeniba's house, and onto the bed.
Rin was ushered out of the room.
Kohaku sliped the crown off my head and he slipped it on nicely onto his crown. Somehow, I think the two crowns were meant to do that. Slip onto each other so that they became one.
He stood there holding my hand. Whispering re assuring things to me.
I felt sorry for him, I think I nearly broke his hand.
It happened so fast, one second I was pushing so hard, the next I laid there, watching Kohaku slowly bring a small little baby towards me.
He gently laid the baby down, in my arms.
"It's a baby boy Chihiro," he whispered, smiling.
I smiled back.
"Congratulations you two," Zeniba said.
"Thanks," I said.
I think she knew it was her cue to get out of the room and let us have some family time.
"Hello Kohiro," Kohaku said.
He looked at me and I nodded.
"I'm your mummy Kohiro, and here's your daddy," I say, looking at Kohaku.
Kohaku smiled, he leaned in and kissed my forehead.
"I'm proud of you," he said.
After a while of staring at our new born baby.
Zeniba returned into the room.
She said nicely. "I'm sorry King Kohaku Queen Chihiro, I'm going to have to shower him off and get him dressed,"
I nodded. And so did Kohaku.
I passed the baby to Kohaku and he passed Kohiro to Zeniba.
I laid on the bed.
Feeling quite stressed out.
Zeniba took Kohiro out of the room.
Kohaku sat on the edge of the bed.
He chuckled slightly. "I think at one stage, my hand was going to break into little pieces," he said.
I took his hand and kissed it. "I'm sorry," I say.
Kohaku smiled "Hey, there is nothing to be sorry about, I know it hurt, if you were me and I were you, I'd probably do the same thing," he said.
I smiled. "It just hurt so much," I say.
Kohaku chuckled. "wow, the natures of giving birth is just so painful huh, even in the spirit world, it's exactly the same as the human," Kohaku said.
"Really, and how do you know, Dr Kohaku," I say.
Kohaku laughed and then answered. "OH I heard all the complaints about giving birth, from Yubaba,"
I chuckled. "That must have been funny," I say.
Kohaku stared for a moment. "but one thing still strikes me, even though giving birth is so painful and difficult, how come mothers like you, accept it and do it, knowing that it hurts so much," Kohaku asked.
I smiled, giving his hand a squeeze.
"Because, we the mothers , only do it for the fathers, who loves us so much and are willing to stand there, holding our hands and letting us squeeze it till it's about to break, because we love them so much, we are willing to go through that pain," I say.
Kohaku smiled, he leaned in and kissed me on the lips.
"Kohiro's beautiful Chihiro," he said.
He continued, whilst speaking in my mind. "He's perfect, like his mother,"
I smiled. "No, he's handsome, like his father, jade eyes, features, looks," I say.
"And who's the father," Kohaku asked, with an arch brow.
I chuckled lightly and answered. "Well, he's a really handsome river spirit, he has beautiful jade eyes that always seem to make me feel better, he has a nice soothing voice, he always knows what to say to make me feel all better, I think his name is Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi,"
Kohaku smiled. "Yea I know that fella, his wife though on the other hand, is so loyal to him, so loving, and I must add, she's unbelievably beautiful with her beautiful long brown hair, her eyes are always so soothing when he looks in her eyes, also her cooking is wonderful, everyday when he comes home from a hard day at work, she's always there waiting for him, with a wonderful meal, also don't forget how she stayed so loyal to him in those 12 years, that she refused not to be with anyone else because she said her heart only belonged to one man, I believe she goes by the name of Chihiro Ogino Nushi," Kohaku said.
I smile, I rested my hand on Kohaku's cheek.
I said "I love you so much, Kohaku thank you for a beautiful baby boy,"
Kohaku shaked his head. "No thank you for giving me chance of being a father," he said.
Zeniba returned into the room.
"He wanted you two," she said slowly passing Kohiro to Kohaku.
Zeniba smiled and walked out of the room.
We were paying so much attention to Kohiro that we didn't realize a shadow that stood at the edge of the room.
Kohiro started crying.
Before we could do anything it vanished.
"What was that," Kohaku asked.
"what ever it was, it scared Kohiro," I said, looking at Kohiro clinging onto Kohaku.
Kohaku soothed Kohiro down.
I just stared at that very same spot.
The day I got married, the day I gave birth, on the one perfect day. To screw things up, there is a shadow maniac spirit that has seen us that Knows about Kohiro.
This is not good.
"This is very bad," I say.
Kohaku rested Kohiro in my arms. He placed and arm around me.
"I'll never let anything harm you or Kohiro," Kohaku said, he too staring at that very same spot.
Kohiro looked petrified. "Kohaku," I say.
Kohaku looked down at Kohiro.
He was shaking with fear.
Kohaku rested a hand on Kohiro. "Hey buddy, it's okay, there is no need to be afraid, mummy and daddy will never let anything happen to you okay," Kohaku said soothingly.
With Kohaku's hand gently resting on Kohiro, his shaking seemed to subside.
Kohaku has a gentle touch, his touch sometimes just makes things all better. Like when I'm crying and he gently wipes the tears away. That little touch, and somehow I feel all better. One look in his eyes and you know everything is going to be fine.
That's Kohaku, the one and only man that I belong to, the only one I can rest my heart with and know that no matter what he will be there to protect me. Knowing that he will always be there to comfort me whenever I need it. Knowing that everyday he will be by my side to hold my hand as we walk into the future.
At this exact moment, things are just wonderful, besides the evil shadow that we saw.
I'm afraid to wonder what will happen in the future.
Time is a wonder sometimes.
One second, it's wonderful.
The next minute, it has all changed.
The future, is a strange mysterious thing that no one can really explain. The future can't be told, but we can read about it in the great books of what should happen, not exactly what happens. The future is a mystery, we can imagine what we want happens in the future, but we can't predict the exact thing. We can only dream and hope it happens. The future is beyond anyone's imagination. The future changes each and every day, it is the things that we do in the past and present that eventually creates what we call the future.
But one thing that I will always know is the past and the present.
Til that day in the future comes, I will continue to enjoy this moment.
I will always remember in the past, in the present and in the future, is my name Chihiro Ogino Nushi and the ones I love and continue to always love forever Kohaku and Kohiro.
"treasure your name, keep it close to you, never forget it, Chihiro,"
The end.
FINIALLY FINISHED. Took me ages to write this story, so much editing of all the chapters. One of them I actually re wrote it about three times before I posted it up, anyway I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Actually I re wrote the last bit for this story…hehehe…
I was thinking of writing a sequal what do ya think ????
Anyway if I you all want me to here's a short preview of what should happen.
"please, do not harm Kohiro, take me instead," Kohaku pleaded as he watched the very moment of his son being tortured.
Chihiro laid on the ground in front of him, slightly breathing, her eyes closed.
The wound of theDark Shadow Swordhad slashed her hand slightly, it's evil magic had already started killing her slowly eating her body from the inside.
"Why should I, with you I can do nothing, your magic is just a spec compared to Kohiro, with his life, magic, his soul, I can do anything I want," The Evil Shadow cried.
Kohiro laid inTheEvil Shadow'sboney fingers shaking with fear.
Kohaku looked down at Chihiro and took her hand. With is free hand he removed his crown and gently placed it on Chihiro's head. The two crowns linked on together like one.
He whispered one final time. "I love you Chihiro," before transforming into his dragon form.
With one final glance at Chihiro. He took off.
A silent whisper could be heard in his head. "Kohaku I love you too" It was Chihiro.
Kohaku didn't look back instead flew forward to his destination.
Tears were spilling from Kohaku's eyes the fur on his face was already soaking wet.
He knew that using all his energy and magic, he can destroy the evil Shadow, but with the cost of his life.
Will he give up his whole life, for the sake of Kohiro and Chihiro.
With Evil Shadow gone, the evil magic that is in side Chihiro has no effect.
flying up there in the sky, he looked over at Chihiro and Kohiro, making up his decision.
With his final decision, he flew off.
