A/n: I am soooo sorry about the majorly late update! I worked every day last week and even my days off have been crazy busy. I know it's no real excuse but I'm still sorry. Normally my stories don't last this long and I get bored of them and never finish them off. Well, hopefully that won't happen with this one. oh and by the way I'm not SEXIST at all, I'm basing this off of Japanese culture. Okay? Okay. deal with it.

Disclaimer: Whatever, dude.


Their lips separated. Many odd feelings rushed through Haku. Of those including confusion, happiness, and even some anger. Why had she done that? Was she trying to cause problems and make things worse for them? Did she enjoy pulling him along while not willing to commit to anything that her fiance didn't approve of? The thought of is made his blood boil. Almost within seconds of realizing Chihiro was kissing him, Haku pushed her off of him. Yep, he was back to normal. No longer laughing. No longer losing anymore energy. Just angry and a bit annoyed. He glanced at the ring still on her finger and snarled.

There was an extremely long pause. Nobody dared speaking. In fact, Lin even felt a ping of jealousy well up inside her. How come Chihiro always got everyone's attention? Didn't she deserve to feel noticed and accepted for once? And why didn't anyone love her? A certain darkness inside her was unlocked. An evil spirit made it's home in her body. She didn't know exactly what it would do to her, but she already knew that she couldn't control it. But looking at the hurt look on Chihiro's face only gave her a joyous and happy feeling. Seeing Haku's disgusted expression gave her a sudden feeling of pride. Little did she know that this spirit would consume her until she couldn't control herself anymore.

"Alright, now that that's done and over with let's sit down and I'll tell you all a story about me and my sister, Yubaba." Zeniba re-entered the living room, followed by No-Face who remained silent. As usual, he didn't say anything. Zeniba pushed Lin forward onto the couch on the other side of Haku. He scooted over to make room for her then No-Face sat down beside Chihiro.

"It's not too long, right?" Haku questioned, implying that he'd rather be heading back to the Bath House.

"Long enough. Get comfortable my children." She said as Chihiro folded her arms over her chest and eyed Haku carefully. He acted so strange whenever she tried to get closer to him. Lin eyed Chihiro and smiled, even though her insides burned. Chihiro returned her smile with one of her own. She had missed Lin so much in the time she was gone. After that Chihiro turned away to look at Zeniba. Lin leaned in towards Haku and cupped her hands over his ears.

"This will take an eternity, better get used to being jealous." she whispered and laughed into his ear so that Chihiro saw. She tried convincing herself that it was an innocent thing. That Lin would never try to hit on Haku. But still, jealousy burned in her as Haku laughed along with had known each other longer than CHihiro had known Haku. What if they had something going on that she didn't know about and that's why Haku ha always been pushing her off of him? It makes sense to her.

"Quiet, children. Listen carefully. As you know Yubaba and I are identical twins. As children like you are now, we were incredibly close. We never did anything without each other. Our parents tried separating us many, many times. But it never worked. We were the best sisters who always got along an never fought over anything. That is until we both turned seventeen. In school a boy our age showed interest in us. Strange enough as it was, he liked us both. He was very powerful within the school system and his father was the head master at the time.

Like I said earlier, the boy liked us both very much. His name was Akito. He fell in love with the both of us. At first Yubaba and I agreed to share him for a few weeks. We worked out a schedule of different times we could see him. It wasn't long after that, I caught Yubaba sneaking out late at night to see Akito. I grew angry at her. It wasn't long after that, I stopped talking to Yubaba altogether. She didn't realize what was wrong with me of course, then one day I finally blew up and told her that I knew she was sneaking out every night to see Akito behind my back and that was why I didn't want to speak with her until I had storted things out with Akito.

When we talked, he amitted that he had stronger feelings for Yubaba than he had for me. Hearing this from him gave me a broken heart. Right there my heart shattered into a million pieces. I started to cry and right then I swore that I'd never let someone into my heart ever again. Certainly not Akito. Yubaba begged for my forgiveness and I retaliated by saying I'd never forgive her for as long as I was alive. I started to cry and ran home after that.

To this day I haven't forgiven Yubaba for making Akito fall in love with her. Through my eyes it was all her fault, though now I'm not sure if that was the best way for me to handle things. Akito and Yubaba got married, I didn't attend the wedding. Then they had a child. Yubaba's big and fat little boy. No doubt as dumb as his father is. A few years ago, he died from a tragic accident including some type of human war. I don't remember the details. I didn't attend the funeral because what's the point in that? Anyway, my point is that I'm still very upset at my sister for betraying me and things will never be the same. You need to choose each decision you make now very wisely. Make each day count, as corny as it sounds it's the truth. That my children is my advice to you. Now I hate to kick you out but I need to bake some more food for a special event." Zeniba picked Lin, Haku and Chihiro up by their arms and pushed them out of the door.

"Nice story, I enjoyed the fact that she still hasn't forgiven Yubaba yet. She's a total witch." Lin laughed as she faced Haku. Chihiro walked behind them feeling a bit left out. She didn't like that feeling. Not at all.

"I know, Zeniba deserved Akito. She's nice and sweet and not anything like Yubaba. How stupid could he be?" Haku agreed with a loud laugh.

"You guys. . . . " Chihiro spoke up as she looked down at her hands. Her body grew colder and colder with each step she took. Haku and Lin stopped laughing and turned aroun to face the girl. By then Chihiro's hands were blocks of ice. and her body was turning blue all over.

"Not again." Lin sighed. Just then she began to faint and nearly fell over but Haku reached out and caught her before she had a chance to hit the ground. They couldn't possibly go back to Zeniba's. Chihiro had the book and the translations in her posession. So Haku turned into his dragon form then he took Chihiro on his back and Lin got on as well, then they flew back to Haku's home as quickly as possible.
