Chihiro stared into Haku's eyes. He smiled widely at her, then started laughing. She had no idea why he was acting this way. He just kissed her. On the cheek! Why was he being crazy?

"What are you doing?" She demanded in a high pitched voice. The one thing Chihiro couldn't stand was being the source of a joke. One that she didn't understand. Or worse, even when she knew the joke was about her. This wasn't something that Haku would normally do. He was often so serious and professional that she'd never actually seen him laugh before. Now, he wouldn't stop. In one motion she pulled him up onto the bed with her.

"Something's wrong." Chihiro whispered to herself as she pushed him downward. He fell backward onto the sheets and giggled like a little school girl. Instantly, Chihiro grabbed the book from the nightstand that Haku had been reading from all week. She still didn't know what power she had obtained that had almost killed her Spirit a week ago. That moment, she opened the very old and thick book and looked at the page. It had a bunch of foreign symbols that didn't make any sense to her. Haku continued to laugh and was now rolled up into a ball, laughing his head off. With a scrunched up face, she glanced up and saw the garden lights on. Meaning, someone was outside. Hopefully it was Lin. She needed help and fast.

"Lin!" Chihiro shouted loudly into the cold, brisk air. She ran towards the light while holiding the big fat book in her arms. Lin was sitting down on the grass with snacks, in the middle of eating when she heard her name being called. She turned around and looked up at Chihiro with her mouth full.

"What is it?" Lin gulped down her food with one last swallow.

"Something's wrong with Haku." She informed as she ran up to Lin and grabbed her hand. Without another word, both girls ran back inside. Haku was still sitting on the bed laughing like a mad man. His face was red and his gasps for air were consistant.

"Holy crap, what happened to him?" Lin waved a hand in front of his face. He seemed to completely ignore her and continued laughing loudly.

"I don't know! First, he kissed my cheek and then he was like this! He hasn't stopped for anything. It's worrying me." Chihiro explained, Lin glanced at her cautiously then noticed the book in her hands. She took the book from her arms and skimmed the page. She saw the ancient symbols written on each long page. Her finger ran across the book's binding then saw a note sticking on the page after it. The note read 'For Zeniba to translate'.

"Looks like we need to visit Zeniba." Lin told Chihiro while pointing to the note. Chihiro read it, then nodded her head.

"Let's go." Chihiro pulled Haku up from the bed and slung his arm over her shoulder. Haku kept laughing in Chihiro's ear. Both girls carried Haku outside. Chihiro also held the heavy book in her right arm. She wondered what the book said and what would help make Haku go back to normal. All she wanted was to be with Haku. So, why did something always have to come between them? It was so hard knowing that she loved him yet also knowing that things would never be easy between them. Since she was supposedly the most powerful Spirit in the Spirit World and he was powerful as well. She was supposed to marry him, she honestly didn't know how to feel about that yet. It was better than being forced to marry Takashi that's for sure. Still. . . she couldn't help but wonder how he was taking her death in the real world. Chihiro looked down at the diamond ring on her finger and sighed.

Takashi sat alone in the graveyard. He was sitting by a recently dug grave. One that belonged to his fiancée, Chihiro. He placed the flowers he brought with him down on the headstone. Takashi read the headstone's words in his mind. 'A troubled yet very loved girl, daughter, and fiancée who's life ended far too soon.' They were a very interesting choice of words, yet very true to their meaning. Takashi didn't regret letting the family burry the ring with her, in fact it made Chihiro's death easier for him to deal with. He remembered not liking her very much upon learning that they were to be married at a very young age. Over the years he realized that if he got to know her better, maybe he'd like her. He was right. He actually liked her and now she was gone. Forever. . .

Chihiro woke up on a train. Haku's laughter hadn't stopped and she was starting to get a headache from it. There was a loud ringing in her ears and she felt like she was going to throw up. A wave of exhaustion hit her suddenly and she began to shake. Her eyes burned with tiredness. How could she be this exhausted if she just woke up from a nap? She didn't know. She glanced down at her hands and noticed that she was fading away! How was this possible? She was going to dissapear!

"Lin! Wake up, look at me!" Chihiro screamed while she shook her friend awake. Lin opened her eyes and groaned with an unhappy voice. Without a word she looked at Chihiro, her eyes widened.

"What's happening to you?" Lin questioned loudly. Haku laughed even louder beside them. He was starting to fade as well. Both of them.

"What's going on?" Chihiro asked as she looked at Haku. Lin could only stare at the both of them with worry, she felt so useless. She was watching her two best friends just disappear and she had no clue what was happening to them or what she could do to help out. Hopefully, Zeniba could help them. She was their only hope now. Zeniba woul be able to help them, Chihiro was certain of it. Right? Why wouldn't she help them?

About an hour later the train's wheel's squeaked loudly as they rolled into a stop. Chihiro and Lin helped a laughing Haku off the train and they began walking toward Zeniba's house. It wasn't a long walk, but very exhausting to Chihiro. She wondered if this meant she and Haku were dying or not. She hoped not but anything was possible in this world.

"How are we supposed to explain all of this to her, I mean we don't even understand it!" Lin yelled as they approached Zeniba's front door. Normally, Chihiro would have something upbeat and positive to say about that but today she had nothing. Her mind was blank and with each step she took it seemed as though the life was slowly being sucked out of her. Haku was still giggling like he was crazy and Chihiro was beginning to think that all hope was lost. They'd die soon. She was almost sure of it.
