Chapter 3 What needs to be done.
Korim went to the portal Hiei went through showing the way to the Koorim Island. Korim was taking a deadly chance but it was his only chance.
Going over the snow Hiei showed the way to the Ice city of Koorim. At the gate Hiei departed, even if he was Yukina's brother he wasn't welcome in the city.
"I'll wait for you on the edge of the woods." Hiei said scurrying off.
Korim, walked up to the city wall and knew he could just go right through it but that wouldn't help him in the situation he was in.
Knocking on the large ice door, the sound of it echoed through the hidden hallways and guard ramps in the city. He heard feet running toward him.
"Good I got someone's attention." He said to himself. After 15 min of knocking.
The guard looked over the wall and asked "What does a male want here in the ice city?"
"I come with news for Kire about her family. I was told that the chief city leaders were going to help her find her lost family so I came." Korim said truthfully.
The guard listened then turned and commanded to the guards, "Guard him while I will get Miranda and Kire, they will know if he is telling the truth. Quickly now."
15 guards came running out, all with long spears, short ice blades and some had bows and arrows. The wait was long and Korim was getting anxious. The longer this took the more stonehearted Youkiya would become.
Finally he heard voices coming along the corridor, one was saying , "I don't know how he got here but he just suddenly appeared at the gate, telling me about the information I just told you."
"I wonder if what he says is true?" a sweet voice asked that sounded a lot like Youkiya but younger.
Three figures appeared at the entrance one was the guard that had gone to get the two, the blue haired one he assumed was Miranda, and the other one was Kire.
"Stranger you say you have information on Kire's family tell it now to us all." Miranda ordered.
"Kire, I am Korim, I am a good friend to your sister. In fact sadly she is the only one of your family left." Taking out the picture of the Solar family handed it to her. "That is your family, You are the one being held by your mother," Then pointing to each one telling who they were.
By now the ice maidens had put down their spears seeing that he truly meant only to tell Kire about her family.
"That necklace you have around your neck was given to you by Youkiya your sister. She gave it to you as a big sister gift. Though two days later she never saw you again. You were stolen from your family by a jealous fire demon. He happened to come to this island and was chased by the ice maidens here where he accidentally dropped you. That is how you came here and who your family is." Korim explained.
"But if I still have a sister why is she not here with you telling me this?" Kire asked thoroughly confused.
"Kire, right now Youkiya has fallen under the curse of Stone-heart. You know what I mean." Korim said as her face paled. "She wants to kill all the family that is connected to the man that brought sorrow to her family, first stealing you, then killing your Uncle Frost Fingers. "
"But if she is under this curse she is gone lost to me." Kire said on the brink of tears.
"Don't cry Kire, You see there is a way that we can save your sister. Nakine is Iritir Jagenskisi's daughter and the best friend of Youkiya she never knew this till 5 days ago. There is only one attack that can defeat her now, the fire blast from that of a Golden Dragon of Chaos." Korim said kneeling down to her eye level.
The ice maidens shivered at the name of this dragon. He was the deadliest of all dragons and had once ruthlessly destroyed their beautiful city, years and years before.
"But that dragon would melt her and kill her since she is an ice Youko. She Will Die!" kire cried.
"What are you trying to do Korim, kill kire from this news?" Miranda asked.
"I am trying to do nothing of the sort. Kire, when she was only probably 3 or 4 she accidentally absorbed a fire stone gem. It has given her the ability to be immune to fire. She will not die. Only be hurt. That is why we need you. Only a fox of her own kind would be able to heal her, you are the only one that has the same kinds of abilities and she does. You have great healing powers like she does. We need you." korim said with a slight pleading evident in his voice.
"So she will live but she will have to be healed afterwards and will be in full health." Kire said with evident relief. "Alright I will come with you to make this possible and save my sister."
Korim was relieved even after telling her all the horrible things her sister did she still was willing to help her. Kire noticed this and thought, "I think that Korim likes her more than he's willing to admit."
So the 2 ice maidens agreed to go with Kire to help also, as long as the fire dragon was kept away from them. Korim lead the way back into the woods where Hiei was waiting.
The ice maidens prepared to attack when Hiei said, "Peace maidens of ice, I am not here to harm you but I came here to help Korim save Youkiya. I am only here to help."
They relaxed and let Hiei lead the way. They were almost to the meeting place with Nakine that is if she survived the attack with the Golden Dragon. Did she survive the impossible?
