Chapter 4 - Chapter Four
Once again, sorry for the evil delay people. My excuse this time? Well, I was just being lazy and forgot about it for awhile....bad me. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter,
and I'll try and get the next one out quicker.
Disclaimer:I own none of the spirited away characters, though I do own a copy of the movie, Larena, Kohaku( the son) and Sen(the daughter) and any other characters that don't come from
the movie.

Chapter Four

Larena sat quietly, fairly stunned, listening to her Grandfather talk. They had been sitting in the same room for the past hour, and though she wasn't about to complain, Larena's
legs were starting to cramp majorly. "Alright, so I understand that my Father was a kitsune youkai lord, and that he gave up his position to mate with and marry my Mother." she said
slowly, waiting for his nod to continue. "But what happened to my Father?" the old kitsune sighed, shaking his head a bit.

"Your Father was killed in a battle by a spirit demon which we have yet to find." he said. Larena's mouth opened and closed a few times, seeming as though she couldn't find the words
to say. "A spirit demon is an exceptionally strong spirit," her grandfather explained, "and this certain spirit demon disappeared right after killing your Father, and it hasn't reappeared since." Larena nodded, biting her lower lip a bit.

"Now, I'm sure your legs are stiff enough as it is. Go on." he said, chuckling and helping Larena stand. She smiled and hugged him again. "Thank you Grandfather...it was good to see
you again." she murmured before pulling back and heading out. Swinging the door open, she blinked, hearing a surprised yelp and a thump. Glancing behind the door, she blinked again, seeing
Kohaku sprawled out on the floor with what looked like a pair of robes over his stomach.

"Um....what are you doing Kohaku?" she asked, walking over and offering him her hand. He laughed in embarrassment, grasping her hand with his and managing to pull himself up. "I was standing behind the door waiting for you to finish, and didn't hear the door opening till it was too late. " he laughed, rubbing the back of his head. She giggled a bit, smiling. "Why were you waiting for me?" he blinked, as thought just remembering, and held out the pile of clothing in his hands. "Well, my Mom figured that you would want to wear clothing that would fit in more while you were here, so she had me bring you a pair of robes."'that I picked out' he didn't add the last part, instead
just watching as she took the clothing and smiled again.

He grinned back foolishly, not being able to help himself.
"Thank you, Kohaku...where can I change?" she asked, her ears twitching slightly. He held himself back from reaching out and rubbing the furry appendages. "Oh, um.....you can go into that bathroom over there and change." he stammered, pointing to the door aways down the hall. She smiled and murmured a small thankyou before going into the room and closing the door. Letting out a breath he hadn't known he was holding, Kohaku put his head against the wall and sighed. 'Why does she make me feel so....so....aw, dammit, I can't even figure out how she makes me feel.' he grumbled silently, looking up at the sound of the door opening.

Larena stepped out of the room, tugging at the edge of the shirt again. The robes were the exact same style as everyone Else's in the bath house, only they were made of a silkier violet material with blue undertones. She looked up, stopping and blinking. "Um...why are you staring at me?" she asked,
snapping Kohaku out of his daze. He had indeed been staring at her. "Oh, uh, sorry, no reason." he lied, blushing. Larena's cheeks turned pink, and she lifted her arms slightly. "Um..does it look alright?" she asked, Kohaku nodding so quickly she was afraid he was going to get a headache.

"Would you like to go and sit down somewhere?" he asked suddenly, and she blinked, smiling. "Sure, that sounds good." she said, and he grinned back. "Alright, come on." he said, taking her hand and leading her down the hallway. She blushed and gripped his hand back, her cheeks turning pink again.
Both were so busy trying not to blush that they didn't notice the workers staring at them as they walked by, whispering. "Did you see that?" one of the female workers whispered to Lin, who nodded, grinning. "Ya, she was wearing Master Kohaku's colors." she whispered back, grinning like a cat.

Kohaku led Larena out onto a more hidden balcony of the bath house, one around the back. Sitting on the edge with his legs hanging out underneath the railing, he tapped the spot beside him, signalling for Larena to sit. She did so, leaning on the railing and swinging her legs a bit. "Is it much different? The
human world, I mean." he asked, and Larena nodded, being silent for a minute. "It's pretty different, there's technology there. Computer's, cars, tv 's, phones, PS2's.....you have no idea what I'm talking about do you?" she asked, seeing his confused face. He blushed and shook his head no. "I didn't think so..
you'll see if you ever go to the human world." she laughed, looking up at the sky.

"Hey Larena?" he said after a minute."Ya?" he paused, then looked at her. "What are your parents like? Do you have any siblings?" he asked tentatively. Larena didn't speak for awhile, and just when he thought she wasn't going to...."No, I don't have any siblings. My Mom's really nice....she helps me out with homework and stuff, I doubt I'd be able to live without her. My Dad.....I never knew my Dad...he was
apparently killed when I was very young....and my stepfather is a cold hearted bastard, I hate him." she whispered the last part, her head bowed, bangs covering her eyes.

They sat in an awkward silence for what felt like hours, Kohaku trying to think of something to say, and Larena just lost in her thoughts. They both snapped out of their dazed states when a sudden crash and screams filled the air. Jumping up, they both ran back inside and threw the many hallways towards the
front of the bath house, freezing when they got there. A large red, devil like demon stood just in front of the bath house, the building's behind it looking as thought they had been hit by a meteor.

"Give me the girl!!" the demon roared, it's eye's leering at Chihiro and Haku for a second before turning to Larena. "Hand her over!" it screeched, pointing at her. Laren's eye's widened.'Me?!'
