Chapter 10: Surprised?
Last: Sen saw a huge blanket on the table and said "this might come in handy."
Present: "Heard you got the big tub Lin." A woman yelled from one of the various bathtub booths. While other people stared and said Sen and a somewhat surprised and happy voice. They finally got to the booth that held the big tub. It looked even worse than before. The room was filled with green strips chunked up rocks clods of dirt and clusters of the three mixed together.
"Disgusting" Lin spat as she was about to begin sweeping. "Lin wait." Sen stopped her as she unfolded the blanket she took from the kitchen then added "Lin helped me put this up over the entrance." Lin looked at her confused and mumbled "this better be good." As she walked over she took one side of the blanket and followed what Sen was doing and they had the blanket over the entrance in no time.
Sen told Lin to open the garbage shoot on the wall which of course blended in.
"OK Lin could you get behind me a little." Lin did what Sen asked and stepped behind her. Sen then put an invisible roof over them which on the out side made it look like Lin and her cleaning 12 spirit years ago. Sen inhaled as she held out her hands and then exhale. She then inhaled again while closing her eyes and turning her hand a 160 degrees. After a moment of concentrating on her energy she opened her eyes as she exhaled. Then she slowly raised her hands, as she did this every green strip, piece rock, mud and cluster of the three on the floor raised with it.
Sen smirked her hair going all sorts of ways as she began to move her hand to create a twister with the mess. The bottom of the twister was in the big tub peeling of the sludge that was so kicked on it would take weeks to scrub off if they were doing it by hand. Less then a minute the big tub was spotless.
Sen stopped twisting her hands and she began to shape the mess into a large ball as she led it to the garbage shoot on the wall Lin had gotten ready for her before she started. After she push it practically in the wall she released her hold over it. And the garbage ball dropped just like her hands dropped to her side.
After a moment Sen walked over to the garbage shoot she grabbed her nose and closed it at the odor it gave off then she closed it quickly. She took her hand off her nose and breath "done" in a some what relieved way. When she got no response she turned around to see a wide eye stiff Lin standing there. "H-How did you do that" Lin manage to say.
"Surprised?" She asked with a little sarcasm then added while she walked over to take down the blanket covering the entrance "My secret magic teacher"
"What they teach humans magic" Lin said helping her with the blanket.
"Not necessarily Lin you see my teacher is not….well… not exactly a human. He's a river spirit. You know the one I cleaned last time I was here." she had a hard time saying as she folded up the blanket they had down seconds ago.
"The stink spirit?" Lin asked
"yeah he teaches me magic and the others ordinary spells. But now that were on the subject can I ask you a question?"
"Sure" Lin said
Sen snapped her fingers to remove the invisible roof she put up and asked her question " love is the strongest power of all use it when the time is right. Lin do you know what that mean?"
Lin shook her head and said "I'm not sure but it will come to you sooner or later." Both girls turned their head and saw a crowd looking into the room. "They were barely in there five minutes and the manage to get it sparkling clean." Some random person said (or frog thingy).
Lin looked at Sen and asked "you want me to get the token?" She smiled at her and said "I'll go get it" and with that said Sen made her way to the former to get a token.
Every one was still surprised and happy to see Sen back. Except one. "I need a bath token for the big tub."
"To bad" the former replied while giving every body else who walked by a token.
"Not this again." she whined
"Again…. I don't remember ever meeting a pesky human before." he spat human which tick Sen off.
Sen actually looked at the former and realized that he wasn't the one from before so she asked "What happen to the other former?"
"It seems he had a weakness for a worthless human girl and Yubaba got rid of him."
Sen new this former had a problem and he was really flipping her switch. If you had real good eyes you could see a tiny spark on her index finger that was getting bigger and bigger by the minute.
"What are you still doing here you worthless human girl?" he asked she was just about to tell him off until some one said "just give her a token."
A/N: sorry I really thought I was going to get to the part when Yubaba give them the mission but my mom is almost home so I really have to hurry up or she'll make me stay in bed all day and treat me like a little baby. And I definitely don't want that lol. So I'll write some later and thanks for the get well review FlowerLover and I hope I do so this chapter is dedicated to you. Lol. Next sneak chapter will be up soon so ta tah for now.
