Here is the First chapter of Finding You:
-Chapter 1: The Dream-
The rain lashed down in sheets outside of Chihiro's bedroom in the big blue house on the corner of Cherry Street. It was at least 3 in the morning, but for some reason Chihiro's mind was on a certain someone, other than sleeping away like everyone else. 'It has been almost 8 years… and he hasn't filled his promise yet.' She thought, sighing, than got out of bed and over to her window, looking longingly over to the road that led to the Spirit Worlds gates. 'I miss you so much. I've tried over and over countless times to try and come back. But I can't. It's like it never happened… but then why do these memories that haunt me so much seem so real? Have I just gone insane?' she thought staring into the dark clouds. "Haku…" she let out of her mouth, as only a faint whisper. "Why haven't you kept your promise to me yet?" Now at the age of 18, Chihiro was almost completely done with high school, and was ready to go off to college. The more she thought on it, the more she didn't want to leave. 'What if Haku comes back while I'm away? I would never forgive myself.' She thought. It was all getting so confusing. She sighed again, than crawled back into bed. She let her thoughts stay on Haku as sleep embraced her.
-Chihiro's POV-
I ran through the forest, having no idea where I was going. Everything was dark; nothing showed but the moon through the trees, giving off very little light to see by. I hurriedly ran around a couple tight corners and than came up to a large building. My breath caught in my throat as I recognized where I was. "Aburaya…" I gasped and ran into the tunnel. "Haku!" I yelled over the howling wind, that was pushing me even faster towards the exit of the building. As I got to the end of the tunnel, it grew very cold, the sky as black as black can be. My eyes grew wide in terror. 'Oh god no…' I thought as I ran as fast as I could through the tall grass, and over the creek. I ran up the steps and through the shops and restaurants. Than I saw it, the Bathhouse. I ran across the bridge, and into the building. No one was around. I heard a scream coming from the baths, and jolted towards where it came from.
There, I saw many employees' bodies littering the ground. I felt tears fall down my cheeks. "No… plz no." I breathed. Than saw familiar white dragon outside the window. My eyes grew, and I ran over to the stairs and ran up them with ease. Running into the closest room, I threw open the balcony doors, and grasped the wooden railing. "HAKU!" I screamed as I saw his battered body wailing around. He glanced at me, but then was thrown to the ground by something that I couldn't see. He fell to the "ocean" and thrashed desperately against the enemy he was battling. He than roared loudly, and raised into the air, coming towards me. Before he could reach me though, I felt something grab me from behind. "Say good-bye Sen…"
-End POV-
"NOOO!" Chihiro screamed, as she abruptly flew up from her bed in a deep sweat. She glanced around her room, breathing hard and holding her chest. 'Why do I keep having these dreams?' she asked herself, shuddering as she remembered the voice. It was dark and menacing, Cold and frightful. She glanced out side to see that the wind had picked up, but no rain fell. The clouds were still completely dark, making it seem darker than it really was. She looked at her alarm clock, and noticed that it was already 6:30. She Shakily got out of bed and walked to her closet to pick out her clothes for the day. 'Thank god I don't have school today.' She thought sorting through her clothes. Something to the right of her clothes grabbed her attention. Tears built up in her eyes. It was the orange uniform she had worn while in Aburaya. Chihiro fell to her knees, and gathered the uniform in her arms, tears falling into the fabric as she held it closely to her. 'Come to me Chihiro' came a familiar voice in her head. She looked up and glanced around her room. 'What?' she asked inside her head trying to get the voice to respond. The only answer she got was, 'I need you Chihiro' "Haku?" she asked out loud. 'What the heck is going on here?'
