Spirited Away Fan Fiction

Chapter 15- Healing

Haku groaned, sweat beading on his brow. Chihiro chewed her hair with worry as she sat beside his bed. Haku's fever rose to extraordinary heights. So, much so that Zeniba could not believe that he was still alive.

"Eh…," Zeniba shook her head, "How he's still alive I'll never know."

"Is there any way we can help him?" Chihiro whined.

Zeniba shrugged, "I'm afraid we'll just have to wait it out, deary."

Kuma came and sat beside Chihiro, "I've heard of a way to heal these wounds…"

Chihiro gasped, "Really? What is it?"

"Well… He's a river spirit… So… We should put him in this river. Sometimes that's all a spirit needs," Kuma said, playing with a piece of her red hair.

Chihiro looked at Haku's grim face, then back at Kuma, "I'll try anything if it'll help Haku." Determination written on her face. Kuma nodded.

"We should hurry to his river, the Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi," Zeniba said, "Before his fever gets worse." She turned to No-Face, "Come help us carry Haku to his river."

To shorten their travel, they decided to ride the spirit train all the way they can to the Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi River. Hikari and Kuma stayed at Zeniba's house, still recuperating from the whole ordeal with Kumori and Kasai.

Zeniba, Chihiro, and No-Face carrying Haku walked another mile down an animal path to reach the Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi River. When they finally reached the river, Chihiro led No-Face to the edge of the water.

"Come on, this'll help him," Chihiro said as they walked in the shallows, fish darting to and fro all around them. Dragonflies zipped and buzzed. Haku's face turned serine as they lowered him into the water.

"I hope this works, deary," Zeniba said, "I've never heard of this method of healing a wound…"

"Kuma said it would heal his wound," Chihiro held Haku's head above water. His eyelids fluttered, and then all of a sudden, he turned into a dragon and flew up into the air. Swooping in the sky, he landed back in the water beside Chihiro. His scales where the wound once was were a grey color, but he was fine and Chihiro burst into tears.

Turning back into his human form he hugged her, "Chihiro! I love you!" He kissed her lips and twirled her around. "You helped me again."

Chihiro blushed, wiping tears from her eyes, "It's fine, Haku. I-I'm just glad you're alive. I don't know what I'd do without you." She choked up at cried into his shoulder. He hugged her.

Then pulling away, he said, "Chihiro, I would never leave you alone. Never ever." They kissed again. "Let's head back to the bathhouse." She nodded, jumping onto his dragon back, rubbing gently over the grey scales and they flew. The sunset glowing orange and red behind them. Zeniba and N-Face took the spirit train back home. For now, everything was perfect.

That's the end for now…

I think I'll write a part 2 for this fan fiction. It'll take me a bit to think of a storyline for part 2, but I'll do it ^ ^

I really like it, I'm glad you guys like it too.
