The journey of Yin and Yang

63 Endure IV

After a few hours, no sign was left of the previous wounds on Yin's skin. Her blood had also been replenished by the miraculous effects of the Lifesaver pill.

The dark-haired man was by her side the entire time and waited patiently for her to wake up.

Finally, her eyelids fluttered and a frown appeared between her eyebrows.

"Ice Flower, you are finally awake."

She opened her eyes and felt a bit disoriented. When she saw a man in front of her, she instinctively flinched back and pressed herself against the sofa.

"Ice Flower, it's me." The dark-haired man took a few steps back and said gently.

"Brother Dark?" Yin called out when she finally recognized him.

"It's been a long time since I last heard you call me that, Ice Flower." Brother Dark smiled, as he was reminded of the young Ice God in her childhood.

Yin sat up on the sofa and shuddered as she recalled what had happened. She saw that her outfit wasn't the same as the one the monster wrapped around her, which calmed her down somewhat.

With a simple hand movement, she removed the blood from her body and changed to a clean dress. She took several deep breaths to gather her emotions and then attempted to put on her mask of apathy and callousness.

"Ice Flower, let's abandon everything, alright? Let's forget about the revenge and just leave. It pains me to see you suffering like this." He tried to convince her.

She shook her head as kept concentrating on inhaling and exhaling.

"Why? If you want revenge, we can plan it from somewhere else, where he can't find you. You don't have to be in the vicinity of his lair."

"I can't abandon my family and my clan." Yin stated as she let her legs dangle from the seat.

"What family? What clan? Why show them such loyalty and consideration, when they hardly care about you? Do they even know what you are enduring? No, they don't." Brother Dark was getting pissed off.

"Even that outsider Yang of the Fire Clan figured out what you had suffered. Even he could see that something is clearly wrong with you. But have your parents done that? Have your clansmen done that? No, they haven't. So wh-"

"Enough." Yin let her feet touch the ground and stood up.

She was aware of everything that he just brought up and it hurt her to think that her family might not care enough about her. Still, she couldn't just let them die because she wanted to escape her pains.

"I have endured it until now and I shall keep enduring it." She lifted her head and locked her eyes with his.

"If you want to help me, increase your influences. My revenge is primarily dependent on your strength."

"Fine, but if your life is ever threatened in the future, I won't give a damn about them. You are my top priority." Brother Dark declared in frustration before leaving.
