Bow'sArrow News: Hey, Sorry it took so long too update been having a writer's block and didn't know what to write. Well nothing belongs to me except the idea of Chihiro digging up a river and it becomes Kohaku's new home that's mine!
Recap: The Kohaku River was taking her to the thyme park; it was flowing very fast for a river, like it was when she was on… She reached her arms out and grasps horns. Haku was looking at her with a smile. Then they broke the surfes and were now flying above the spirit river.
Chapter 2 Old Friends Old Job
"Kohaku! Oh I have missed you so much! I even dug up a river for you, I didn't even know if it could connect to the spirit world." Haku listened to Chihiro as he flew over the river to land on the bank. As Chihiro got off, she watched as Kohaku changed back. Then he picked her up and spin her around, and hugged her tight. "Chihiro it's thanks to you that I have a home river now in the human world!" He looked her up and down now at arms length. Her waist length hair, lose and wet, as well as what she was wearing. "Wow you've grown so beautiful." This surprised Chihiro and caused her to blush. "Ko-kohaku- I- you've gotten taller and your hair's gown out a little". Chihiro said as she reached for his hair. (AN: He looks like Howl, from Howl's Moving Castle.)
"How is everybody at the bath house doing?" "They're doing fine; Yababa is still a little mad that I now know my name and told her off. I'm now going between Yubaba and Zeniba with updates and when Baby wants to go over". AN: The kid doesn't have a name, they only called him Baby. Poor guy.) "How are Lin and Kamajii?" asked Chihiro "There doing fine in fact they'll be even better when they see you. Here eat this." Kohaku handed her a berry and she ate it.
They stared to walk to the bridge and as they got near Chihiro held her breath. "You don't have to hold your breath this time Chihiro." Kohaku said as they cross. Chihiro let out her breath at the end of the bridge. "I just wanted to try it this time. Can we go to the Boiler Room I want to see Kamajii and Lin." "Ok, this way Chihiro." They made there way under the front entrance and down the stairs, for Chihiro a lot easer then the first time. "Kohaku I'll think I'll get a job here but I'll still want to go back home from time to time." "Don't worry, as long as you have your name you can go and come as you wish. I'll see you latter then, I have to report to Yababa." "Thank you Kohaku." Said Chihiro Then she turned to enter the boiler room, as Kohaku left to enter in a side door.
At the Boiler Room Kamajii was working a way and didn't see her enter. "Are you Kamajii? I need a job!" Kamajii stop his work to look where the voice was coming from. "Well, if it isn't my granddaughter!" Chihiro ran to Kamajii and gave him a hug. "It's been a long time Kamajii." Chihiro was about to say more when a door in the wall moved and a voice came from it. "Kamajii how many times do I have to tell you to leave your bowl out?" Then Lin saw Chihiro smiling at her. "Sen! What are you doing here?" "I came for a job" Replied Chihiro. "A Job but…" "Don't worry I know my name and so does someone else, so I won't be forgetting it." Chihiro smiled to reinsure them. Then Kamajii spoke up, "Lin, why don't you go and get Sen a change of clothes and take her to see Yababa." "Yes lets get you out of that thing." "Yea I'm a bit cold, Kamajii I'll come latter when ever I can." "That will be good them, see you two latter them."
With a new change of work clothes, and Chihiro told Lin that she needs her bathing suit latter to go home with, Chihiro got up to Yababa door knocking this time the doorknocker spoke. "Well I see you learned some manner since the last time." "Yes I have thanks to you, may I go in?" responded Chihiro. The doorknocker was started, to hear such a thing. "Well! No ones ever given me a thank you or a complement before and you just gave me both! Well dear of course you can go in." The knocker open up the door and Chihiro "And come see me anytime you want dear!" the doorknocker call after her.
Chihiro quickly made her way to Yubaba's room so as not to be dragged in like last time. When Chihiro enter the room, Yubaba was counting gold and signing papers. Chihiro build up the courage to ask what she knew Yubaba would not like to hear. "Yubaba I would like a job." Yubaba stop what she was doing and look Chihiro in the eyes. "A job? Why would you want a job? Your parents aren't pigs, you have your name. And not only that but it was you that caused my apprentice Haku to remember his name!! Why should I give you a Job?!!!" yelled Yababa.
"Mama" a voice came from the next room. "What is it dear?" "Is that a new worker?" "Baby long time no sees" said Chihiro. (AN: The kid has no name they just called him baby) Baby looked at her then "Sen you came back." "I'm here for a job" "Mama are you going to let Sen play with me?" "If that's what you want then fine, here is your contract sing your name." said Yubaba as she gave in to her son request. Chihiro said with a little worried voice. "But Yubaba I just need a job for the summers, and when I'm not in school and my parents back in the real world don't know that I came back here."
"You know you're name and I do not have a contract with a 'Chihiro' only a Sen" Yubaba said as she removed Chihiro's name leaving only Sen on the paper. "Thank you Yubaba" as Chihiro bow to her. "Now you and Lin got the big tub tonight we have an important customer coming. And don't use the good tokens this time!" "Yes ma'am!" Chihiro responded. "She's leavings Mama" said Baby. "Don't worry Baby I'll will come and see you when I get done with work, but it won't be every day." "Ok Sen" said Baby.
Chihiro left to fine Len to start working on the big tub again. Now that everything was set with Yubaba she started to wonder who the guess was tonight.
Bow'sArrow: Well what do you think? I Love the part where Yababa yells at Chihiro for asking for a job, I laugh at it ever times I read it. And Baby why doesn't the kid have a name? They only called him baby, the poor kid. Well if anyone what to name the poor nameless child give suggestions, but only Japanese names please. Sorry for it being another short one I only have the first half of chapter 3 done so pleases wait a little with me. If it makes it any better I already have all of chapter 4 done I just need to fill in the gap in-between.
