The glowing from Chihiro's pocket began to fade, as the lights from the town were shining brighter than ever. The spirits happily spread through their town, resuming their usual night time activities. Every spirit remembered Chihiro who they grew to love long ago. This made walking to the bath house much easier for Haku and Chihiro.
They came closer and closer. Then a familiar face rushed towards them. The creature blocked the both from traveling any further. But why?
It was the one and only No Face.
"No Face! What are you doing here? You know you're not allowed to enter the bath house! And I thought you went to live and work with Zeneba long ago?!"
With No Face unable to understand the girl, or even talk to her, this confused all three.
The spirit lifted his arm, pointing to the sky. There. Yubaba circled the bath house, clearly searching for both Chihiro and Haku.
No Face managed to push the two into a set of bushes. The two ducked in fright, not even knowing the meaning of this. Why would Yubaba want to hurt the two? Last time, they made the deal, end of story. She wasn't exactly 'happy' about it, but wasn't angered. Was she really that cold hearted? Wanting to make their return a sick game?
Most likely, then again, this was Yubaba we were talking about.
She flew over, soon returning to her room. No face signaled the two so they could crawl out.
"What was that for No Face?!" Chihiro screamed.
"Puh, muh..." No Face managed to choke out.
"Oh.. Almost forgot, you can't communicate with me."
"Yubaba is after us dear, As I expected. " Haku joined the conversation."
"What will we do Haku?"
"Easy. Stick to what we're hear for, and fight only if we need to!"
