Author's note: I'll be telling the story in two different prospectives. Chihiro will be in normal font and Haku in italics and underlined for Kain. Oh ya! Jacob, Ankoku and their chara's belong to my friend, Blitz-chan!

Prologue

It has been six years. Six years since I last saw Haku. Before I left he had promised me that we would meet again. And I'm still waiting for that day to come. All I want to do is go see him. See if he is okay, and tell him about what has happened to me over the last six years. It's nothing bad. In fact it is truly amazing. Not everyone's appears from inside them. But because I wished to show my true colors they appeared. But still new ones show up. And I don't even know what to do anymore. I mean I love Haku but I also like ­­­­­­Kain. Kain also has the same issue as I do but he's working for my father—my enemy. I just wish that I could figure out something to do about all of this.

Six years. I could swear it doesn't feel like it. It feels more like six thousand years ago that I last saw her. I watched her off after promising her that we would meet again someday. But I wasn't and still am not sure when that day will come. I sit here in the boiler room of the bath house everyday helping Kamaji run the baths. And believe me lifting coal is harder than it looks, but I guess it is easy for me now that I have been doing it for the past six years. I wonder if when Chihiro left she actually forgot me and every thing about the spirit world. If she did then she would be better off. I don't even know why I told her to not look back until she got through the tunnel. As long as she is safe and happy that is all that I ask for.

I've know Chihiro for six years. I haven't even really talked to her a lot until she starting shooting hearts eggs out. I mean sure there was the kendo club that we were both part of but even there we hardly even talked. Every one at this blasted school has a crush on me along with Chihiro. I mean she joined the kendo club just to be near me. Shuji says that there is something that my heart desires and he knows what it is, but I don't get how he can't tell me. No matter, I was given a task to from Ikuto-san, Chihiro's father, to figure out why she keeps shooting out hearts eggs and to find the Embryo. He even gave me the Dumpty Key. The key that goes with Chihiro's Humpty Lock from her mother. Chihiro…Ugh! What am I thinking! Jacob and Ankoku better not get in my way.
