Hello, how is everyone doing? I got the next chapter up and ready for anyone who wants to read it.

Chapter 10

[Day Of The River]

The scene cuts to Sen, who is crouching down against a couple of pink flower bushes, where Haku stands over her. They were in a small section of the garden, with a field of corn on one side and a cabbage field on another.

Haku then pulls out Chihiro's clothes from his robe and hands them over.

Haku: Here's your clothes, hide them.

Lifting her head up, Sen's eyes widen as she sees them, she takes them from Haku's hand and hugs them close to her chest.

Sen: I thought they got thrown away.

Haku smiles gently at her.

Haku: You'll need to get back home.

Zoe "Not only her shoes were saved, but her clothes as well."

Haku crutches down beside her and pulls out another object, a wrapped package of some kind. Sen feels around in her shorts pockets and pulls out what she was hoping to find.

Sen: My goodbye card is still here.

The frame cuts to Sen's card, as Sen reads off a name that feels so familiar to her somehow.

Cut to Sen's point of view on the card in her hand.

Sen (Off-Screen): Chihiro?

Cut back to seeing Sen and Haku.

Sen: Chihiro.

Sen turns to Haku with a realization in her eyes.

Sen: That's my name, isn't it?

Haku nodded his head 'yes'.

Haku: That's how Yubaba controls you by stealing your name. So hang onto that card, keep it hidden, And while you're here, you must call yourself 'Sen'.

Chihiro: I can't believe I forgot my own name. She almost took it from me.

Bokomon "My goodness, it would seem that Takuya is right! That Babamon of a witch can take away other's names."

Every human and digimon was taken back at this sudden realization and the power Yubaba holds over Chihiro.

To forget who you are is scary.

Haku: If you completely forget it, you'll never find your way home.

Haku turns his head away. Looking very lost in his thoughts.

Haku: I tried everything to remember mine.

Tommy "Haku's name isn't really Haku?"

Zoe "If Haku can't remember his name, doesn't that mean all of Yubaba's workers are in the same boat as him and Chihiro?!"

J.P. "Now I know I don't want to work for a boss like Yubaba."

Takuya "Yeah, She is one evil witch."

Kouji "But Haku remembers Chihiro's real name."

Bokomon "There might be some hope left for Haku."

Neemon "I hope he remembers soon."

Cut to Chihiro with a concerned expression.

Chihiro: You can't remember your name?

Cut to Haku turning to face Chihiro with a small and kind smile.

Haku: No, but for some reason I remember yours.

Haku looks off from the frame as his upper shoulder arms move. Cut to a full screen showing Chihiro and Haku in a full body frame and a brown package is open, indicating that Haku has opened it.

Haku picks up a white object and offers it to Chihiro.

Haku: Here you go, eat this. You must be hungry.

Chihiro looks away from Haku's rice ball.

Chihiro: No.

Haku: I put a spell on it, so it'll give you back your strength. Just eat it.

As if by magic, in every human's lap were Onigiris.

Jane "I notice some of you stopped eating the food I have laid out for you, so I quickly made some Onigiris. And don't worry, my allergies/cold is gone now.

Kouji "And did you put a spell on them?"

Jane "Not quite a spell, more like herbs and spices that'll help you strengthen your connection with your spirits."

Everyone was a little hesitant before taking their first bite but soon realized that the rice balls were good. Really good.

For Takuya, his Onigiri is a spicy meaty rice ball.

For Kouji, his Onigiri is also a meaty rice ball but without the spiciness and was replaced with something that feels like a warm sun.

For Tommy, his was a seafood that had a slight chill to the taste.

For Zoe, hers had fresh herbs.

For J.P., his had mushrooms with a zappy taste to it.

Chihiro stared at the Rice ball, Onigiri, for a second before taking it into her hands and takes a small bite from the top of the Onigiri, chewing on it for a while before swallowing it. Only to find it to be good, and she was starting to feel a bit better.

Chihiro took another bite, bigger this time, and without waiting another second she took two more big bites of the Onigiri. Her eyes glossed with tears as big drops dripped down from her eyes to her cheeks, and fell off from her chin.

She pauses her chewing and swallows it, Chihiro continues to cry as she finishes the remains of her Onigiri.

It was then that everything building up to now from yesterday finally made Chihiro cry out with mixed emotions of hopelessness, anguish, and sorrow. Every feeling that defines the word "Lost".

Neither the kids nor digimon knew if Jane had this planned or not, but they soon began to shed some tears.

Even the lone wolf Kouji was crying.

Haku puts an arm around her and comforts her in a kind and gentle hug. While offering more Onigiris to her.

Haku: Have some more. You'll be alright.

Chihiro continues to cry, but she manages to take the last two Onigiris and eats one of them while still crying with her mouth full.

This has made the human audience members cry along with Chihiro, they can feel her anguish ordeal. But not just hers, they too feel their sadness swelling up inside of them and bursting out like an overflowing river.

They remember how they came to the digital world, how long they have been there, and away from their families. It felt like hours, but it soon turned to days, and days turned into weeks. Who knows, maybe it's been a month.

Even though they still have each other and digimon friends to guide them, the children don't have the luxury of having a parent to hold them and comfort them when life really has it hard on them. Or even to have someone to offer kind words of encouragement.

The children cried as they remember the soft and gentle touch of a mother's warming love and a proud and thoughtful embrace of a father's hug.

As strange as it was to cry, everyone felt a bit better afterward. Bringing in a strong sense of relief.

Neemon "It's times like this I wish I had my mommy."

Bokomon "Oh how it pains me to agree with you, Neemon."

The screen cuts to the main road and the garden fence gate, as Haku's voice can be heard.

Haku: I got to go now, but I'll be back soon. Just stay out of trouble.

Chihiro opens the fence gate and walks out, before turning to face Haku and to thank him with a quick bow of her head.

Chihiro: Thank you, Haku. You're a good friend.

No one can't deny it, Haku is a good person and a good friend to trust.

Haku bows his head in gratitude for Chihiro's kindness and watches her run back to the bathhouse as she crosses the bridge. The scene cuts to Chihiro running across the bridge from a lower angle before switching to a higher angle looking down at her.

Once she reaches the other side, Chihiro turns around and lets out a gasp of shock and awe as she looks up to the sky (camera).

In the partly cloudy, clear blue sky, something was flying. Flying like a kite or an eel in the water. It was white with a teal blue hair main running down to its tail.

J.P. "What is that?"

Zoe "I think that's Haku's spirit form."

Chihiro (Off-Screen): Haku…

Cut to Chihiro's astounding expression before cutting back to where Haku is in the sky. It's hard to make out the rest of the body, as he flies away, but the shape shows long whiskers and a faint shape of horns on his head. And that could only mean one thing…

Chihiro(Off-Screen): He's a dragon?

They were stunned, to see the majesty of the dragon was an amazing experience.

Takuya "No way, a dragon."

Kouji "I take back everything I said about Haku."

Jane "I would like to take this time to tell you kids that you will soon gain the power to spirit evolve even further, much like how Grublemon evolved into a stronger digimon. That is his Beast Spirit. Bokomon."

Bokomon "Yes?"

Jane "Please open your book and feel around the pages, one of the pages is folded in. There you'll find what you need to know."

Bokomon did just that, he looked through his book and found the folded page.

Bokomon "She's right! There are two spirits. The Human Spirit like Agunimon and the other is called a Beast Spirit."

J.P. "Aw, man, it's like starting over again."

Zoe "At least this time, we'll become even stronger to take out Grumblemon, right?"

Takuya "Zoe's right."

Kouji "We'll be one step closer to getting the answers we need."

Tommy "I bet my Beast Spirit will be the scariest."

Jane "Before you get ahead of yourselves. You kids should know that Beast Spirits don't just look like animals, but they also have animal instincts. If you don't have control over your beast spirits, then they will take control over you."

Kouji "Then how can we control it?"

Jane "Find a connection where you and your beast spirits can work together, and keep in mind your friends. In the world of nature, groups of animals can be called a pack, a herd, pride, flock, mob, nest, or pod."

Neemon "I wonder what group I'm in?"

Bokomon "The dumber kind of group."

Jane 'I think I might keep Burninggraymon being a dragon to myself. For a while now.'

Dragon Haku flies off as he gets smaller and smaller, far off in the distance until he's completely gone.

Cut back to Chihiro still looking out to where Haku has vanished before continuing to make her way back in the same way she came out, but just as she took her eyes off of the sky and headed to the hidden door.

The strange spirit with the white mask made itself visible as it walked onto the solid grounds of the bathhouse before disappearing again.

J.P. "I hate that I'm right."

Kouji "That spirit is going to cause some trouble, I just know it."

In the Boiler Room. Kamaji wakes up to take a drink out of his tea kettle, but he then notices that he isn't alone.

Laying right next to the herb cabinets was Chihiro asleep and coddling her clothes to her chest in a fetal position, her shoes were off and the sootballs were gathered around below keeping an eye on her.

Kamaji sees and knows how much Chihiro/Sen has gone through in such a short amount of time and like the grandfather he is, he takes the purple pillow cushion and gently places it on Chihiro, like a blanket.

Takuya "Looks like Kamaji really is Chihiro's grandfather."

Zoe "Yeah."

That's it for Chapter 10. I try to make this chapter a teary one because this is where most of the audience watching Spirited Away would start to cry along with Chihiro because they can feel her emotions up to this point in the movie.

I didn't cry when I first saw it, but when I saw it on stage, I did cry. Furthermore, I wanted to capture that moment and feel and put it into words for the Legendary Warriors to react.

On a side note.

The rice balls, a.k.a. The onigiri are a reference to the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild & Tears of the Kingdom.

Meaty Rice Balls with Spice Peppers.

Meaty Rice Balls with Sundelion.

Seafood Rice Balls with Chill Trout.

Veggie Rice Balls with Hyrule Herbs and a Korok Frond.

Electro Mushroom Rice Balls with Zapshroom.

That's it for now. See ya later.
