Chii ran towards that small glint of red and black she thought was her sister, Freya. Her blue and white radiant dress sharply and glitteringly following her, while Sumomo worked her way to Chii's shoulder, once again. As Chii reached closer and closer, she began to feel weak, and tired. Her eyes started to close, and she was stumbling as she ran. "Are you alright Chii" Plum said, looking over at her, almost about to go into standby mode. Chii stopped, and sat down by a lamp post. Her eyes narrowed, and she looked around the corner, the figure was now gone.
Chii tilted her head back against the post, disappointed in herself. She wanted to reach her before this happened, was she too late now? Had Dita and Zima gotten through to her now? Chii just barley had any energy left, and she closed her eyes. And she saw her, Chii saw Freya..." Don't worry Chii, you will be okay, no need to have such a sad face like that" Freya told her, gently running a finger down Chii's face to soothe her" Chii only wanted to find you. That's all that I wanted." Chii put her hand on her heart"And it still hurts here, Chii still hurts right here." Freya kneeled down in front of her, the same look of sorrow and pain that Chii had"I was afraid that this would happen to you. Do you know why it still hurts, Chii" Chii nodded, she had no clue"Those books make me hurt, but when Hideki leaves Chii alone sometimes, I feel hurt. Is something bad happing to Chii" She looked up at her, her eyes very narrow now, and her face emotionless. She looked, sad, about to cry"No, no Chii. Nothing bad will happen to you. As long as no one touches here, only 'the one just for you' can. And as long as you don't let your heart hurt anymore, and no one touches you, they cannot find you. Not ever."
Freya lifted up Chii's head with her hand, smiling at her"Never let them find you Chii..."
As she said this to her, Chii slowly opened her eyes and saw that there were people surrounding her. She quickly stood up, and walked away. "Who were you talking to" Plum asked as she jumped back into Chii's hands"Do you need to be re-booted" Again, Chii nodded"No Chii does not. I am fine. We can go home now." She looks around, not recognizing her surroundings"But, where is home"
They wondered until the sunrise came. Hideki would awaken soon. And she knew he would be worried again. Just like last time, he would be frantic and scared. Because he doesn't want to lose Chii. And Chii doesn't want to lose Hideki. Chii franticly looked around, first she searched for the places she knew, and she found the bookstore, Yamatani Bookstore. She was pleased to where she had ended up. But very scared because she heard un-familiar voices telling her things that hurt her heart, like Freya had told her"We can find you. We can hurt you. We can get to the one you love. We have found him. The one that you think, 'is just for you' "The words were so painful, she clutched her heart. She knew how to get home from here. So she started walking"Chii feels pain Plum. Chii wants it to stop. I do not like what these people are telling me. It makes Chii upset and it makes Chii's heart hurt more and more." She looked down at Sumomo, still in her hands"Ring, Ring, Phone call from Shimbo, ring ring." Chii was surprised, and almost dropped Plum, she had watched Hideki talk with Plum before, so she had leered how to herself"Connect me, please. Hello" There was a short pause before there was a voice on the other end"Chii? Is that you? It's me, Shimbo, do you remember" She smiled happily and giggled softly"Yes, Chii does remember Shimbo, Mrs. Shimuzu's husband and Hideki's friend. Is Chii right" Plum's face made a weird movement and Shimbo spoke again"Good job Chii! Listen, is Hideki around? I know that I have been gone for awhile but I need to speak with him, could you call for him please" Chii's face went narrow and sad once again, she was thinking of Hideki again, "Chii doesn't know what Shimbo means by call. I am already talking with you. How do I call for Hideki" Chii knew what it meant, but she was stalling, she knew she couldn't get Hideki.
"Well, what I mean is, could you say, Hideki, the phone is for you. That's what I mean. Say Chii, you sound a little depressed, are you okay" Plum's head toggled, and she said"Connection lost." Chii's eyes widened, but narrowed again, she was so close to Hideki, but she felt so far away, just like those books she read, told her. "Chii does not want Hideki to feel pain" Chii yelled as loud as her little persocom heart would let her. She threw Sumomo unto her shoulder and sprinted home, her eyes closed the whole way. She saw her sister fading away with each step she lay down. Chii reached out to her, but then, again she fell to the ground. Her dress covering all of her lower body, her legs, blue fish nets and boots exposed. Her hair flowing and curling and bunching everywhere, almost covering the ground beside her. Plum had fallen of, also. But like a cat, Sumomo always lands on her feet.
Chii lay there until one person was brave enough to come up to her and shake her awake. It was Hideki, tears coming from his eyes, and his face very pale; you could see his breath in this cold morning air. Hideki was holding her in his arms now, his face very worried and pale except for the cold tear stains on his face. "Chii? CHII! Are you okay" He pushed back her pale blonde hair out of her face. Chii moved her hands to her heart"Hideki, Freya says you hurt me here..." Hideki was shocked, Chii has never told him things like this before, he didn't understand what she was talking about"Chii...I can't hurt you, I don't want to hurt you. I never did."
Chii slowly opened her eyes, and the moment she say Hideki, she threw her arms around him"Chii is sorry that she worried you. I won't do it with out permission next time. Chii promises..." Her head lay against Hideki's chest, listening slowly and hesitantly to his heart beat. She closes her eyes, and this time, there are more people that she see's. She see's Zima, Dita, and Freya.
"Did you not listen to what we told you, girl" Zima and Dita said very harshly to her, scaring her. "Do not talk to her that way" Freya said, floating over to her, to hold her. "Have you found him yet? Your someone" She said in Chii's ear. She stroked her sister's identical hair with passion and sweetness. But Chii was afraid. "Have I found you yet?

Hideki: Hey, why doesn't she look like herself?

Author: I don't think it will be appropriate for someone to look like her.

Hideki: I don't care, I only want her. (Blushing) Errr…

Chii: Chii?

Author: Sorry, but that is not possible.

Hideki: Man…

Author: Don't worry, Hideki. I know what I'm doing.
