DISCLAIMER: I SO NOT OWN SPIRITED AWAY
Chapter 5
"Heart of Heartbreak"
The sky was painted deep ebony, with clusters of stars that appeared to be diamond dust gracing the charcoal canvas.
A metallic green and white creature composed of sleek scales slithered across the night sky, only one thought replaying repetitively within his brain.
How could she forget? How could the girl that I love more than anything forget about me and what we shared?
Haku had been shocked and disoriented when she had appeared before him, as if by some stroke of fate, and then declared that she didn't remember a thing.
His heart had shattered; his world had crumbled right before his very eyes.
When Chihiro left Haku wasn't sure he could continue playing the part of a slave until the time was right. He had told himself that he would break free of Yubaba's chains and restraints on him after Chihiro was safe from harm.
When she finally returned to her world he had watched over her, making sure she would always be happy and safe. She had caused such a dramatic impact in his life that it shocked and slightly frightened him.
After she had remained within her world for about two months, he thought it would be then that he could reveal his true identity and disembark from the bathhouse that he loathed with a passion. He could join Chihiro in the human world; they could live their lives with each other… forever. The words had played over and over again, like a record, within his mind, each scene that played was absolute bliss.
If he could be with Chihiro then he would remain forever within a pocket of contented pleasure.
Sadly, he was not able to go to her.
War broke loose in the spirit world, igniting past prejudices from different breeds of spirits all over again. The wars here were even greater in danger than on earth.
Firearm wasn't needed; no, magic was the weapon vastly used here. Lives were taken brutally, grotesquely. The scenes were nauseating to even imagine.
There was absolutely no way Haku would bring his beloved angel into the middle of this chaos. Even if it killed him, even if it broke him piece by piece inside, he wouldn't allow her presence into a world of bloodshed and danger.
Haku was part of the rebellion; a group of people united to overthrow Harow, the spirit presiding over the laws and balance of the spirit world. He had become a lustfully thirsty being who abused his power; thus, the spirit world wished to seat a worthy man upon that throne composed of twine and gold.
Haku was one of the key members of the rebellion, for he had been stationed in the bathhouse for a continual time period so as to uncover any possible suspicious activity. He had been prepared for months to take on this job and be was ready; however, he had definitely not counted on the girl from his past showing up, greatly confused and scared, at the bathhouse doorway tonight.
He couldn't deny the joy that radiated throughout his veins and bones whenever he thought of her here, so close to him but he also couldn't deny the danger and risk she was being put into. If only he could find some way to return her to her world…
And, even as he thought the words, he knew deep down inside that there was absolutely no way he'd be able to cope if she was sent back to her time again. He would go insane and carry out irrational actions that would probably result in his name being penned on the Suspicious Activity list.
Haku sighed in dismay. What would he do?
Just a glimpse inside our Haku's head. Yes, this is a short chapter but I thought ya'll would like to know what our hero thinks about this whole ordeal. Poor Haku! Gosh, I love him!!
Thanks and keep reading!
