"Miss Ogino, would you like to share what you have to say with the entire class?" said the teacher. Chihiro snapped out of her dazed trance, dizzy from what she had just realized. She found that she was now standing, an action she had been unaware of. "N-no sir." She replied shakily. "Very well. Do not disrupt me again." Whispers went around the classroom as Chihiro sat back down. Was it really him?
"Brrrriinnngggg!" Rang the school bell. The classrooms were suddenly filled with noisy chatter that disrupted announcements. Teachers tried desperately to control their wild students, and somehow, Chihiro wasn't in the mood for that today. "What if it is him?" she thought, "What if he came back like he said he would?" She thought of Kamaaji and the Su Su Watari. She laughed. This classroom seemed like the boiler man's residence even more now that she heard the noise, not being a part of it. "Mushi Mushi." A familiar voice said warmly. She turned her head to see the Haku look alike standing beside her desk, smiling. Startled, Chihiro stood up and replied, "Mushi, Mushi…."
"You're Miss Ogino right?"
"Yea…"
"Tell you what, meet me at the willow tree by the park after school. I 'd like to have a little private chat with you." Nigihayami's eyes flashed. She felt something inside of her, urging her to accept the offer, something she knew she had felt before, but she couldn't place it. "Ok," she replied steadily. "Great!" he walked away, leaving a curious Chihiro behind him. She brooded quietly, thinking harder than ever. "If I go, I could get kidnapped or worse…" she gulped, thinking of the recent reports on young children being molested. She shook her head. That's just the old Chihiro talking. But I'm not like that anymore." She told herself. Chihiro walked out of the classroom, her ponytail swinging back and forth.
The sound of children laughing, the green grass, and the clear blue skies made Chihiro's anxiety fade away. How could anyone harm her in this kind of environment? She breathed in the sweet fresh air, and walked on towards her destination. By a shimmering river stood a gnarled but majestic willow tree, with leaves like hands stretching out to overshadow the trunk. One lone figure stood, leaning against it. She looked at the person, knowing who it was and why they were there. She moved forward slowly, and choked out, "Haku????" He turned his head towards her and his eyes glittered hungrily. A bright glow resonated from the connecting point of her ponytail and head, shining brighter than it had ever done before…
