Haku was checking some papers at his desk in his room. Chihiro still hadn't woken up since they got back from the castle of shadows.

As soon as he was finished, he decided to go see Yubaba. He walked to the side of his futon, bent over, and kissed Chihiro on the forehead.

"I'll see you later," He whispered. He opened the door and exited his room. He walked down the hallway and waited for the elevator doors to open.

He went inside the the elevator and finally reached the top floor.

"Come in," Yubaba's voice rang out. He walked through the doors andfinally reached Yubaba's room.

"Haku," Yubaba said. "What is it that brings you here?"

"Chihiro has been unconscious for some time and I think It is best that she stays out of comission," Haku informed her.

"Alright, fine, whatever. What exactly happened yesterday?" She asked.

"Chihiro, it turns out, was kidnapped by Kyo Ryoutosei. I fought with him, but he escaped by the time I finished the process of transforming into a dargon."

"Oh, well that sucks for you guys," Yubaba chuckled.

"Shut up! You don't know the state Chihiro's in right now! She's traumitized!" Haku shouted.

"Leave."

"Fine."

Chihiro opened her eyes slowly. She realized she was in a room she didn't recognize.

"God, wha happened? Where the heck am I?" She muttered to herself.

"Oh, good, you're awake. Thank Kami!" Haku exclaimed. He got up from his desk and quickly jolted to the futon.

"How are you feeling?" Haku asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, Haku," She reassured him. "Wha happened and how long was I asleep?"

"Well, I was morphing into a dragon, and by the time I finished doing so, Kyo escaped. You passed out," Haku explained softly.

"WHAT? HE GOT AWAY? HOW LONG WAS I SLEEPING?!" Chihiro yelled.

"Shhh, darling... You were asleep for around three days..."

"WHAT?! WHAT ABOUT WORK?!"

"Shhh...," Haku comforted her. "You need rest.. Look at yourself in that mirror over there."

Chihiro got up from the futon and got a good look at herself in the mirror. She gaped.

"Is...that really what I look like now?" She asked Haku softly.

"Yes, I'm afraid so," Haku said sadly.

"I look that terrible?"

"You'll alway be beautiful to me," Haku reassured her. And he held her, right there in his room, comforting her gently and stroking her hair.
