Chapter 9 The healing process

Early the next morning Kire woke and smiled she felt that she belonged there. She had family and she had new friends. Late the night before the ice maidens had returned to their island so now she thought that she would feel all alone but no she wasn't.

Youkiyra's friends made her feel at home very nicely. They gave her a comfortable cot in the room with her sister and Nakine.

She looked over at her sister who was sleeping. Kire would have to help her sister get back on her feet. Plus keep Youkiyra from over working herself. Korim was helping with keeping her on the bed.

"Kire." the quiet voice of her sister asked.

"Yes Youkiyra. What is wrong? Is your rib hurting you again?" Kire said standing walking over to her sister.

"No I just wanted to thank you. With out all this mayhem and madness I would never had known you were living. And never ever found out Korim's true feelings towards me."

"Oh really sister. I would rather have met you with out you getting hurt."

"Yes, that would have been nice of not having pain in meeting you. But it seems that it was unavoidable." Youkiyra said with a smiling face.

As the sun came in the window Nakine woke and looked over at Youkiyra concerned. Then smirked saying "Well how is the "China doll" this morning?" Nakine said using Korim's name for her.

Youkiyra blushed at the nickname. Then at that moment Korim and Kurama came walking in carrying breakfast.

"Well look who gets breakfast in bed." Kurone's voice said looking in after the two entered. He was holding a pitcher and pouring a cup then handed the juice to Nakine then poured some for everyone else also. The cups seeming to magically appear in his hands.

Youkiyra laughed gently even though it hurt.

"Where are the stupid Baka's?"

"They are off working at the Ramen shop and making cartoons that no one in the human realm believes." Nakine said smiling.

Youkiyra nodded and winced. Then Kire shoed everyone out but Nakine so Youkiyra could be taken care of. "Sho, Sho out now we have to take care of things." The guys left and Kire went to work looking at all the wounds seeing how they were mending.

As the days went by Youkiyra slowly healed though sometimes at night she would get nightmares of bits and pieces of everything that happened to her or what she did, she would wake up either crying or yelling which would wake Kire and Nakine and Korim would always come in too.

Then she would slowly fall asleep listening to her friends reassuring that everything was alright.

One night there was a party and everyone was invited but Youkiyra didn't want to go because of her bruised rib so Korim gladly volunteered to stay home. He wasn't used to parties and was happy to stay home.

As it was getting late Youkiyra fell asleep and had another nightmare. This time with Herself killing Nakine by strangulation . She woke up screaming and her rib hurting tremendously. Korim dashed into the room and grabbed her left hand. (The other one was in a cast.)

"It's all right Youkiya it was just a dream. You're alright now. Rest, go to sleep." Korim said softly.

His words were so comforting. Just like in the cell when she was hurting he had a way with words to comfort and make someone relax. She slowly fell asleep, as he started to leave she said "Don't leave. Please Korim?"

He nodded and sat down on the chair beside the bed and crossed his legs and settled down. After she fell asleep he slowly drifted off in to dream land, dreaming happily about a certain fox that he thought of more than a younger sister.

At the party Nakine was laughing as Kuwabara was making a fool out of himself trying to impress Yukina. All the children were in the other room having fun playing games, while their parents were having fun dancing and talking and eating food.

Kurone was on the other side of the room talking with Kurama.

"Kurama, what was it do you think that Youkiya told Korim that made him smile so much that I thought his hair would start to turn white from the happiness in his face?"

"I don't know , but whatever it was it sure made him happy. I really want to know too. Do you think that Nakine might know?" Kurama commented.

"Let's go ask." Kurone then walked over with Kurama went with her. Nakine looked suspicious and waited.

They told her and she smiled, "Kurama, Youkiya told me this agreement that she was going to make with Korim that if I didn't want to go on any stealing raids and she did that Korim would, we have had many fights about that before, and now we had an answer for it. "

Kurone smiled knowing that was very reasonable and Korim he was sure would never refuse in fact he would be very glad to do it.

The party continued till one of the parents looked in the other room and saw that all the children had fallen asleep on their assigned cots. The adults soon dispersed to their beds and Kurone, Nakine, and Kurama went back to the House from Genkia's. (that's where the party was being held. That's why there was so much room.)

When they entered the house the lights were off everywhere except for a small light that seemed to be coming from Youkiyra's room. They peeked in. There was Youkiyra sound asleep with a smile on her face. Her broken arm resting beside her and her other hand touching Korim's. Korim was still in the soft chair beside her and was asleep, legs crossed and head dipped forward sound asleep.

Kire smiled as she came in after the others. She promised to help Genkia clean up a little before the next day. So she came back later than the others.

They all went to their normal sleeping quarters. Kire climbed into the cot near Youkiyra's bed and Nakine snuck by to the windowsill.

Then the house was silent as the only sound was six people's breathing.
