Gift (Ice Fantasy) [COMPLETED]

Catorce

In the Ice Palace....

Throne room.

The tribe leaders are gathered in there. Ka Suo called them when he calmed down the fire princess.

"If what Princess Yan Da said is true, then we are in a lot of trouble. We all know that there's no stopping Huo Yi from getting what he wants," The mermaid saint told the group.

The others nodded, knowing that she's right.

"I knew that there was something suspicious about him being quiet for so long but I never expected it to be this." Xing Jiu stated, shaking his head. "He even went far as to disobey the God's law."

"Indeed. He's too greedy for his own good," Chao Ya added. "King Ka Suo, do you have any plans in mind?"

"Yan Da told me that among us he'll most likely target the mermaid tribe first."

"Our tribe?"

"Mermaid Saint you are after all very powerful. It's no surprise that he'd go to you first. That's why I suggest that the Mermaid Palace should go under the ocean until we have dealt with Huo Yi."

"But King Ka Suo, there are others in there..."

Ka Suo smiled. "The other tribe can stay in here. Hou Yi wouldn't be able to enter here easily. Lan Shang can stay here too."

The Mermaid Saint nodded. She frowned when she remembered something. "There's one more thing. Huo Yi has Lan Shang and Lotus's tears."

"Ka Suo?" Li Luo asked when the king didn't answer.

"Actually, Yan Da already told me about that. She proposed to go back to the fire kingdom and get the tears from her father."

"No!" Growled Tian Jin, revealing himself. He was listening in. "She is not going back in there."

"Shi..."

"You want the tear drops. I'll get them for you. But never send Yan Da back again in there." Tian Jin continued, voice dripping in anger. Heck if he let Yan Da back there. Huo Yi is unstable. He noticed it too. She'll be in danger if she went back.

"Huang Tuo, watch over her until I get back." he said, leaving the stunned group.

(^_^) (^_^) (^_^)

"Huang Tuo?"

"Princess Yan Da." the healer said. Concern in his eyes. Seeing her puke once more. He helped her up when she was done.

"Come. Let's go in your room."

Yan Da nodded. Grimacing at the bitter after taste in her mouth. Huang Tuo chuckled, giving her the potion that he brewed.

"Is this it?"

He nodded. "But are you sure about this?"

Yan Da smiled sadly, caressing her stomach. "It has to be done. If worse comes to worse. At least I'll know that the child's alive and fine."

The healer looked down. He didn't know how to reply to that. He could feel the anger and pity bubbling inside his heart. Why is it that Yan Da has to be born in the fire tribe? Why is it that the fire king is so greedy that he couldn't see the beautiful things that he already has? Why is it that he was so greedy that he didn't even think about the consequences of his actions!? He feels sorry for Yan Da. It must have been tough for her. His heart really aches for her. Because even now, he could see the concern and love she has for her father.

It isn't fair.

Why is life like this?

"Huang Tuo?" hearing that, he snapped out of his thoughts. He met her worried gaze.

"Are you alright?" he then asked, concealing his feelings with a smile. She nodded returning his smile.

"Everything will be fine." She told him. "Don't worry too much."

That didn't ease the pain in his heart at all. He knew her plan and his heart weeps for her.
