Well…this is the last chapter guys. Hope you enjoy it. I would just like to thank you all for your support and reviews. And now here's my last chappie…I think I might stop writing after this…sike! I'll try to keep writing but it'll probably be one-shots or poems. Well, here goes the chapter. Please remember to read and review!


"So you escaped?" Asked Zeniba.

"Yes. I had a hard time, though." Answered Rio. "But I've been meaning to ask you something about Yubaba."

"She is still alive I'm afraid." Zeniba said.

She is still alive? Wait, what's going on here? Haku's thoughts ran as he heard distant voices but could not see. All was dark until he opened his eyes. It all seemed strange. One moment he was unconscious in front of the ruins, now he was in his room, awake and aware. Maybe he wasn't totally awake, but he could hear the voices and ascertain the situation.

"I thought Haku finished him off." Kuja joined in the conversation.

"Me too." Rin said, nodding at Zeniba."

Haku was stirred finally from his bed. He forced himself out of bed and began to walk towards the door.

"Chihiro's alive so that means Yubaba must be dead, right" Rin said.

Haku stopped midway.

"Yes, but the death of Yubaba is not what would have saved Chihiro anyway." Zeniba said.

"Then it must have been returning the Seal to the ruins that broke the curse!" Rio interjected.

"Not exactly…"Zeniba smiled widely, for she knew what broke the curse.

"Then tell us!" Said Rin, Rio, and Kuja all at once.

Haku listened very carefully.

"I told Haku all those things so that he could break the curse. If I told him how to really break it, it wouldn't have worked."

"So you had to lie? Then tell us what really broke the curse." Rin said.

Zeniba smiled again, took a sip of her tea, and answered, "Only true love can break the seal."

Haku stood there, almost to the door. His mouth dropped. Chihiro was alive. His relief and joy was so great it just could not be expressed.


Chihiro walked towards the stand and faced Orrick yet again. The leader of the mighty Spirit Council was going to read her fate.

Uncertainty and worry filled Chihiro up. She was not too confident about how the Council would react. The laws clearly stated that she had to die. It was either that or getting her memory erased. There were problems with that technique though. She could forget every memory she ever had, remember everything that had happened later on, or have some weird powers added to her body. She already knew how to control her energy and throw energy balls though anyway.

"You, Chihiro, are to never speak of Spirit World again." Orrick said with a big smile.

"But Sir! She is a human she cannot be trusted!"

"Zakotso! She has defeated the Leviathan, helped in Haku's quest, and has already gone through enough as it is!"

"Does this mean I can go home?" Chihiro interjected.

Sasha smiled at her and said, "Of course honey. I'll escort you out the door."


"Speaking of Chihiro, shouldn't we wake up Haku? I mean, we got to let them say good bye." Rin asked.

"Hmm…" Zeniba thought for moment. "She's outside. Actually, she's almost out of the forest. She had to leave in a hurry anyway though because the Council wanted her to get out a.s.a.p."

Haku ran out of his room in a flash and out the door, leaving his friends with confused looks on their faces. After he went out the door though, they knew what was going to happen.


Chihiro walked through the forest. She was glad that she could return home but it made her sad to say good-bye to her good friends. She would have said good-bye to Haku but he was still recovering and she didn't have time.

As she walked down the pathway and came near to the end, she felt something behind her. It was like the first time she came into the forest. Something was behind her and she didn't know what. She looked back and nothing was behind her. She kept walking and felt it a second time.

She looked around but didn't see anyone. She thought for a moment and suddenly a smile crept over her face. She stood still and waited for the feeling to return. The feeling of some one following her came back. A presence was coming closer to her. As soon as it stood directly behind her, she turned around to face it.

"Hey, Spec." Haku said.

"Hello…" Chihiro said. He stood there just staring at him for a moment, figuring out what he could say to her but he didn't know what to say at all. What could he say?

"Haku?"

"Yeah?"

"Thank you…"

Haku smiled at her and stepped closer. "No. Thank you."

Chihiro smiled back. She couldn't help but jump into his arms and squeeze him tightly. Surprised, Haku almost choked and he fell back to a tree.

"Oh Haku!" She smiled brightly and couldn't contain her mirth. He turned red and let his back rest against the tree.

"I'm sorry Chihiro. I'm sorry I treated you so bad." He wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly.

"It's ok. As long as you're alright, I'm not upset about anything." She said as they both got up and brushed the dirt off their clothes.

"I'm going to miss you. I owe a great deal to you."

"For what?"

"For everything. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have been able to let go of my anger."

"Hmm…I'm happy for you." Haku started to stare into her eyes. "What's wrong?"

"I just wanted to know if you were ok. Are you?" He put his hand on her back. "You look ok…"

"I feel great. Don't worry, there's nothing left but a scar. A big a scar but nothing serious." She assured him. "And you know what else? Orrick said I could come back into the Spirit world whenever I wanted. All I have to do is keep it secret."

"Chihiro?"

"And I can go back home and come back here as much as I wish and I can still get training and…"

"Chihiro."

"And I can still…"

"Chihiro!"

"Yeah?"

"I've been wanting to tell you something for a while. I didn't realize it till now though."

"What is it?" She said. Then she gasped and said, "You love me?"

"No! Are you crazy? I just wanted you to know your zipper is down."

Chihiro turned red and zipped up her fly. "What the heck was that!" She punched him in the face and sent him back into the tree. He stood up and glared at her. She came closer and glared back at him. Suddenly, Haku grabbed her and brought her dangerously close.

Chihiro was a taken aback a little bit but was really surprised when his lips were touching hers. Her eyes blinked twice before she finally closed them and let go. After he slowly parted he said to her in a low voice, "I love you. And I'm going to make you mine."
