Chapter Twenty
Haku slowly opened his eyes and groaned slightly as some pain seeped though. He turned to face Chihiro as her angelic face was on the edge of the bed and his hand tightly wrapped around her small fingers, Haku chuckled to himself at the cuteness Chihiro was showing. He slowly sat up straight trying to wake up Chihiro, however he failed and Chihiro rubbed her eyes as she yawned.
"Haku?" Chihiro whispered as she straightened her back, she cringed a little at the stiffness of her back.
"Chihiro, are you ok?" Haku asked as he carefully placed a hand onto Chihiro's back, she took his hand away and held onto it and smiled her dazzling smile.
"Yeah, I'm fine, good morning Haku!" Chihiro exclaimed and Haku chuckled lightly.
"Did you have a good sleep?" Chihiro asked as she leaned over Haku's bed and drew the curtains.
"Yeah I did thank you and you?" Haku asked and he gazed at Chihiro's messy hair and chuckled to himself again.
"Yeah, look it's such a nice day!" Chihiro explained and Haku began to crawl over to the window; however Chihiro sighed and assisted Haku back to his place.
"Please Chihiro, let me see it," Haku asked, however Chihiro shook her head and looked away. She was lost in her thoughts, until she sighed and helped Haku to lean towards the window.
"Look, aren't the flowers beautiful?" Chihiro asked and Haku nodded, Chihiro glanced at Haku's face and blushed as she realized how close Haku was to her, and flushed even further as she realized Haku's hand was resting on her hand. She shook her head and carried on looking at the scenery beyond the window. Suddenly, Haku choked violently and Chihiro felt his hand quickly sweep away from on top of hers and onto his mouth.
"Haku! You're coughing oil again, I'll go get Granny!" Chihiro explained and jumped off the bed and began to run out of the room, but Haku's grasp on her hand, made her stop.
"Please Chihiro, stay, here, with," Haku took a deep breath before coughing again; once he stopped he looked into Chihiro's eyes with such desperation which made Chihiro slowly walk over to him.
"Me…" Haku whispered as he wrapped his hands around Chihiro and smiled.
"At least my last moments, will be with you…" Haku whispered in Chihiro's ear, however Chihiro shook her head and wriggled free of Haku's grasp, tears running from her eyes.
"Chihiro…" Haku whispered.
"Please Haku, please let me help you, I don't want you to say those stuff, please, I know I'm not the greatest person, but please let me help you, so please, I need to go to Granny…" Chihiro then held onto Haku's hand which was full of oil, which made Haku gasp, however Chihiro smiled and ran out of the room, however before she left she turned to face Haku.
"Haku, I promise that I'll help you whatever the cost, whatever the price, I will help you!"
And with that Chihiro left, leaving Haku in silence.
"Chihiro, you're the greatest person I've ever met…"

"Granny, Haku is coughing up oil again, what do I do? Granny?" Chihiro franticly looked for Zeniba and she heard a small whimper.
"No Face! Where's Granny?" Chihiro asked as she hugged No Face.
"Uh uh uh," No Face explained and pointed to the stove and Chihiro gasped as she ran over to Zeniba.
"Granny, what happened? Who did this to you?" Chihiro asked and carefully helped Zeniba up; she patted her dress and sighed.
"Chihiro…" Zeniba started and closed her eyes, she really wanted to tell her everything, tell that she must go away from this world if she wanted to live, tell her that if she did not she would be forced into so many unpleasant things, but…
"Tell her the truth and I'll have her throat ripped out and kill her and banish her spirit to Abaddon..."
Zeniba gulped at the sight, her visit to Abaddon for some business had scarred her for life, the endless torture the spirits were put under, branded on their forehead a million times and the...
Zeniba inhaled and exhaled calmly as she slowly opened her eyes and placed her hands on Chihiro's skinny shoulder.
"Chihiro, answer me this, do you really want to save Haku, no matter the cost?" Zeniba asked and Chihiro's eyes widened.
"Of course I do! Why? Do you know how to? Please tell me!" Chihiro asked and Zeniba laughed slightly to herself and got Chihiro to sit on a chair and she did the same.
"Ok, here's how it goes, there's a forest where the Water God lives, and he is in charge of all the waters in both the worlds and his also the prime owner of Haku's river, therefore he will have a magic medicine which will cure Haku's problem and the oil will be cleaned," Zeniba explained.
"When do we start? When can I go?" Chihiro asked, before Zeniba could explain further on the details, a loud cough was made. Chihiro and Zeniba both turned around to see Haku there, leaning on the wall for support.
"No, she is not going anywhere!" Haku shouted and he fell to his knees in pain, Chihiro instantly stood up and helped Haku to sit down on her chair.
"Haku why are here? You should be in bed..." Chihiro explained and looked up to Haku who was giving Zeniba the evils, he threw his fist onto the table and Chihiro squealed in fear.
"Zeniba she is not going anywhere!" Haku shouted and looked over at Chihiro's frightened face, his face instantly softened.
"Please Haku, let me go, I promised that I would help you," Chihiro explained.
"But just being here safe, is helping me Chihiro,"
"No Haku, it isn't," and Chihiro stood up. "If I'm going to help you then I'm going to do it my way."
"Chihiro, what happens if you die? What happens if you get hurt? What happens then?" Haku asked, tears nearly spilling, Chihiro gasped and wanted to giggle at the mighty Master Haku was nearly crying but she knew now was not the time, instead she hugged Haku.
"Please Haku; let me help you, I promised, so please as a friend wait for me... Wait for me to fulfil my promise," Chihiro sniffed as a tear ran down her face and dropped onto Haku's shoulder.
"Like I did six years ago, I waited for you Haku, because I trusted you, as a friend I knew that you would come back..." Chihiro explained and once she had finished, she left Haku speechless.
Chihiro was right, he had promised her and even she waited and went through the pain of waiting for him to come back for six whole years... He knew that he had to let Chihiro go sooner or later as soon as she finds her own love...
Haku shook the thought away and looked in Chihiro's eyes.
"Is this what you really want to do Chihiro?" Haku asked and Chihiro nodded her head.
"Fine, but you must have this," Haku explained and nodded to Zeniba who walked over with a sword in her hands and Chihiro gasped.
"Please accept it Chihiro, the only reason I'm letting you go is because we're friends right? So as a friend please accept this," Haku explained and Chihiro nodded as she took it gratefully.
"Thank you Haku, thank you so much!" Chihiro exclaimed and hugged Haku again.
"Come on, let me and Chihiro talk about the journey whilst you sleep," Zeniba explained.
"It's ok, I think I get it, just follow the map, but there may be dangers in my way, so I have to be careful and I should use the sword to protect me and when I see the Water God I must respect it! Yeah I think I've got it!" Chihiro explained and gasped at herself.
"How did you know?" Zeniba asked and Chihiro simply giggled.
"To be honest, I don't have a clue, but may I ask, how will I be able to contact you guys?" Chihiro asked and Zeniba opened her hand to reveal three glistening rings.
"These rings are holograms, which means you can pass things back and forth from the circles which will show up as they are activated," Zeniba explained and handed Chihiro and Haku the rings, which they then placed on their fingers.
"Thank you Granny!" Chihiro exclaimed and she hugged Zeniba tightly.
"Chihiro, for now I think you need to rest for the rest of the day, to be more alert in the morning," Zeniba explained and Chihiro nodded and she helped Haku to go back to his bedroom.

Haku stirred as he heard the door open and close, he sat up straight and gasped as he could not find Chihiro anywhere.
"Chihiro?!"
