"I dont know officer, today is her birthday and Chihiro still isnt back. Im scared she wont ever come back!" Cried Chihiros mom.
Chihiros dad stood behind her mom and wrapped his arms around her shoulders, moving his hands up and down her freezing cold arms.
"Well, do you have a picture of her? It would be best if
we could have a picture, and maybe even something of her clothes.
Our search dogs may be able to hunt down her scent." The
officer said, pulling up his pants by his utility belt.
Chihiros mom quickly reached inside of her blanket that was wrapped around her, and pulled out a picture of all three of them smiling for the camera.
"Here. Hunn? Would you goto Chihiros room and give them one of her shirts from the laundry basket?" She asked.
"Yeah." He nodded letting go of her and walking into the house.
"Ma'am were going to try our best to find your daughter.
Have you asked any of her friends where she might be?"He asked.
She was about to answere with a 'No' but then she saw two of them comming towards the scene.
"OH! There they are now!" She waved towards them, wiping a tear from her eye.
Ekiyuu and Metsuki began to run when a police car started to come into sight. They both ran up to Chihiros mom and hugged her without a second thought.
"Oh my god! What happened? Is everything ok?" Ekiyuu asked.
"You both dont know? Where she could be?" she asked sadly.
"Who? Chihiro? I dont know she hasent been at school for three days. And she never misses school." Metsuki said.
"Oh dear. I dont know where she could have gone." She sighed.
"Well... we'll help you find her. Wont we Ekiyuu?" Metsuki said raising a folded fist in the air happily.
"Yeah! Anything for Chihiro!" She said excitedly.
Chihiros dad came outside with a pink shirt in his hand.
"Here." He said handing it over to the officer.
"Alright well i'll get right on it. If there is anything you need, ANYTHING at all, you can call me." He said handing Chihiros dad a card.
"Thanks."
"Hey! Can we get a card too?" Ekiyuu asked.
The officer laughed a little. "Yeah." He said handing them both cards.
"Officer... damu?" Ekiyuu asked, almost laughing.
"Yeah yeah yeah laugh all you want." He said getting into his car, and closing the door.
"Well i hope an officer with a name like that can do a good job!" Metsuki said.

"I-...I...Im So-Sorry."
And with all of the strength i had in my entire concience,
I withdrew from Kohaku, turned the blade, and jammed it into
the place that most hurt. I layed in pain, and made it go even
deeper, screaming from the excrouciating(sp?) feeling in my side.
I made the cut bigger, and then i withdrew the blade.
Kohaku jumped from the ground. "Chihiro!" He screamed.
I looked at the blade that i had just pulled from my side.
A huge slug about the size of my foot was at the end of it.
I had freed myself from Yubaba. I never thought that the slug had
grown in size though. Now the pain she was giving me, was being
replaced by a new one.
Kohaku sat by my side and heald my head up on his knees.
He stroked my hair away from my face, and clamly kept whispering
"Its going to be okay. I promise you. It's all right. Your
going to be fine."
I hazily gazed up into his face, not getting anything that was going on around me. People had run inside to retreive some doctoring equipment.
Then everything went quiet. A darkness fell over the skys.
Kohaku almost let go of me as i started to glow a dark blue.
I shut my eyes as the pain left my body and i feal as if
i were floating on a cloud. Then kohaku watched as my hair
crumpled up and then shot out as a white color, with blue
streaks. My eyes shot open looking straight at him, and he saw
as they turned a beautiful night blue. My hands formed a tatooish
looking sign on them, and my whole body seemed to be perfect.
Then he saw little spirit looking things start to float from
my wound, and then they covered themselves on it. About a second
later they dissapeared back into me leaving nothing but a
small wound scar.
My body settled down in its new form, and i fealt no pain
whatsoever. I gazed up at Kohakus disbeleiveing face as to
what had just happened in his arms. I smiled, then cuddled
into his hold, and fell asleep. All i could think were three
things. "At least Yubaba did something right." "Thank you Kohaku"
and "Happy birthday Chihiro". With that, i was asleep.
