The Legend Of Nigihayami Kohakunushi

chapter four: Come with me

Looking down at her dress. Chihiro didn't notice that she was in a different kimono. she was now wearing a light blue with waves of green. As they walked past a mirror Chihiro saw shells and flowers in Chihiro's soft brown hair.

Rin started to walk a little faster pasting a hall with silks cover the walls more and more. Then in the middle Chihiro thought she saw something behind the wall of silk but she nodded it off, for she felt a little tired.

They walked to a closed door, Rin let go of Chihiro's hand and knocked on the door. the door opened and in the end of the room was a desk and behind it was the god of the river, Nigihayami Kohakunushi.

The god sat there reading as Rin and Chihiro walked over to him. Rin made a low bow as did Chihiro. he looked up and put down the book he was reading and smiled.

"get up both of you, Rin get some tea" he said, Rin nodded and walked out the door and closed it leaving Chihiro alone with the god. he got out of his chair and walked over to Chihiro.

"there is no need to bow to me." he said putting his hand on her cheek. his hand was warm.. Chihiro loved the feeling..but she nodded the feelings away.

The god took Chihiro's hand and whispered "come with me"

"are you the god Nigihayami Kohakunushi?" Chihiro asked as they walked around the gardens, where pretty fish maidens were running around. but the god walked past as they were not even there.

"yes i am the God Nigihayami Kohakunushi,but don't waste your breath saying my name. you only need to call me Haku" he said with a smile, Chihiro looked at in the eyes then looked down, blushing she thought over and over again how his robe matched the green color of his eyes.

"Haku..." Chihiro whispered under her breath.

Slowly they walked around the palace with Haku showing her everything around. but then in the middle of a small bridge, he stopped and looked at Chihiro.

"This place will be you home from now on" Haku said not looking at Chihiro.

Chihiro felt a pang of sadness, but she knew that she could never go back to the land now. For she didn't want to marry without love.

"The wing to the west will be your room from now on, my room is to the east. Rin will be helping you from now on." Haku said as he led her to her room. he said bowing.

"thank you very much"Chihiro said returning the bow, but more so lower and she went behind the doors and closed it.

Chihiro looked around the room, not looking at it very carefully before when she was taking a bath. So this time looking closely she saw many things that she missed before, the color of the silks of light pink, green ,and blue hung everywhere. paintings of court princess and young maidens. flowers where everywhere, on the ground, on the walls floating with the waves of the water that the palace hide under.

Then something hit Chihiro, she felt like she had been here before. Chihiro nodded it off then walking over a bed that was covered with layers of silk, she moved and found the opening and fell on the soft bed, falling into deep sleep.
