Airen smiled and nodded ,"Okay. That'll be the first thing we do. There's bound to be somewhere we can eat around here."

He glanced over at her and asked,"How are you feeling? If you're sick we will need to see if there is a doctor around after we grab a bite to eat." Airen felt his own stomach beginning to growl again.

Elena looked at him and smiled softly. "I'm fine," she commented, then looked over and found a woman with a rack of smelly dead fish.

Usually Elena wouldn't react to something like that, but for some reason it just turned her stomach and made it do flips.

She swung her head around and burried her face against his shoulder, hugging her arm to her. "Never mind," she whispered as nasea gripped her.

Airen grabbed her and held her up. "Maybe we should try and find that doctor first." he said caringly. He held her close trying to keep her from bringing up what little food she had eaten. He walked closely with her to the first house he saw.

Airen knocked on the door and said dryly," Is anyone home?" A small old lady came to the door. The woman was shorter than Elena and had silver hair about down to her shoulders.

" I was just wondering if you could tell us if there is a doctor in this village?" Airen said in a calm solemn voice. He looked over at Elena and her beautiful face was flushed and weak. "And maybe a glass of water or something?"

The old woman looked at Elena and began pulling them into the house. "By all means come in!" she urged. She showed them to a small table and insisted them to sit.

"We thank you greatly," Airen said sincerely.

Elena took a seat at the table quickly, practically falling into it. She leaned against the table, putting a hand over her eyes and an arm around her stomach.

'What is with me?' she wondered. 'Maybe Airen's magic didn't heal me completely? Maybe I'm sick because of all the beatings I took in the gut...'

The old woman brought her a glass of water and handed to her. Elena drank it slowly with a unpleasant expression, but it seemed to sooth her problem enough.

She sat the half-empty glass down on the table and thanked the woman.

Airen watched as the woman gave Elena a glass of water. Airen looked around the little shack. It was comfortable and cozy. The lady had a little fire burning but the temperature in the room was quite comfortable.

The old woman sat down at the table and let out a sigh of relief. She looked at the young couple and asked," Now who was it you were looking for?"

Airen turned his attention to her and answered,"We are looking for a doctor. " He glanced back at Elena and smiled at her. She was looking a little better already. " She's been sick for the past few days."

The old woman turned to Elena,"What are your symptoms?" she asked in a genuine tone.

Elena swallowed hard. "Nasea..." she commented. "I throw up a lot for no reason, mostly mornings... Some times in the afternoon and midday... Dizziness and nasea... Thats about it I think... I don't know..." she said softly, lying her head down on the table.

The old woman looked at Airen and then back at Elena... She tilted her head from side to side and then put her finger to her chin. "Mostly mornings, sometimes afternoons and midday... How long has it been happening?"

"I few weeks..." she grumbled.

"A few weeks..." the old woman mused. "Stand up for a moment..."

Elena pushed herself up, and put a hand on the table top to steady herself. The old woman came around and put a hand to Elena's stomach as if she could sense something there.

Finally the woman looked at Airen and smiled. "Well, I think you might have a baby on the way..."

Elena looked up. "What?" she whispered hollowly. She didn't have time to do anything else her eyes rolled back in her head and she started falling forward.

Airen didn't even notice Elena falling. All he could do was look at the woman."Wha.. what?" he stuttered. He couldn't believe it.

The old woman laughed innocently." You're having a baby." Airen finally noticed that she was squatting over Elena and fanning her.

Airen rushed down beside her. The woman got up and walked towards a doorway. "Bring her in here and lay her down." she said. Airen picked Elena up and carried her to the room. He gently laid her down and feel down into a chair beside the bed. He couldn't believe it. It was the happiest moment of his life next to the day he fell in love with Elena.

"I'll leave you two alone for a moment," the woman said considerately."She should wake up in a moment."

"Thank you." Airen replied as the woman exited closing the door behind her. Airen sat there in the chair staring at the wall. He reached over and held Elena's hand in his, waiting on her to wake up.

Elena made a soft moan as her eyes fluttered and opened. She felt the warm feeling of a hand on hers as her vision cleared and she could see the ceiling.

She turned her head in the direction of the warm hand...

"Airen?" she whispered softly, putting a hand to her head and sitting up slowly. "Was it a dream? A strange dream..."

Airen · Post by **Airen** » Thu Mar 23, 2006 10:10 pm

Airen stared at her for a moment. "It wasn't a dream." he finally muttered. " Are you feeling okay?" He could feel the excitement building in him. He couldn't believe that he was going to be a father.

Elena nodded and then she shook her head. "No..." she said and put her head in her hands...

"Its horrible!" she cried. "I won't even get to keep it! I won't even get to keep my own baby! What's the point of having one if I don't get to keep it!"

Airen stared at her with confusion." What are you talking about?" He was so excited by the news that he had completely forgotten about his deal with Shea.

The confused expression on his face quickly changed to sadness as he recalled what she was talking about. His eye then began to flicker with fire as his sadness then changed to anger." She won't have him." he growled." This is our child, not hers!"

Elena looked at him with watery eyes. "You can't stop her, Airen," she said softly. "You can't. If you do try you'll die. Please don't try. I'm losing my child... I don't want to lose you as well..."

She reached out, hanging over the end of the bed to wrap her arms around his neck.

"Please..."

Airen · Post by **Airen** » Thu Mar 23, 2006 10:33 pm

Airen jumped out of his chair, and yelled, " We can't just let her have our child. I'm not going to let her. If I can't stop her, there's got to be someone who can...and...and if no one else will, I will do everything in my power to stop her." He looked back at Elena. His eyes were fool of sadness and hatred.

" She want have our child." he said under his breath. He shook his head and stormed out of the room.

When he stepped out of the bedroom the door the old lady was standing there. "Sit down," she said in a kind voice." Here!" She handed him a cup of warm tea. "Drink this."

Airen took the cup and went over and sat down by the small fire." Thank you," he replied.

Elena knew that he wasn't yelling at her. It just seemed to feel like it because he was yelling period. She was already in an emotional state since her hormons and every other thing in her body was changing.

She just stared at the far wall as she sat on the bed, her eyes tearing up as she was about to cry.

He never seemed to listen to her sometimes. He was so hot headed and rash and hard headed and he would never seem to listen to reason.

She would lose her child and the man she loved... Elena burried her face in her hands again and cried softly.

But, slowly she had to stop. Her hip began to have this intense burning sensation. She hissed and lifted her skirt up to reveal her hip, the one with the tattoo on it.

It began to burn feircely as if it had noticed her looking at it. She put her hand over to try and sooth the pain, but it only intensified.

She laid gently down again, hoping to try and fall a sleep or something to make it go away. She felt sick again and then felt as if someone had taken hold of her, and drug her into the darkness.

In the darkness her vision faded in and out and everytime she saw a blurry figure. It whispered in her air and she felt its arms around her, hugging her almost lovingly.

"I will protect you," the voice whispered to her. Soothing the pain.

The image faded in again and left with darkness.

"I will not let anyone harm you..."

The image, though blurry appeared again.

"I will love you..."

And again it faded out.

"Mother..."

Then Gargon's face faded into her vision, his eyes glowing like usual. Elena could not wake herself. It was as if he actually had a hold over her thoughts and body until the point where she couldn't even break away from him in a dream.

"No... no...." Elena struggled to get out of his protective hug. "No! No!"

"Don't fight me mother!" he said grinning. "You can't fight me..."

Airen heard Elena's screams and sprinted back to the room. He put his arms around her and held her close. "Elena! Elena! It's okay!" He said trying to bring her back to reality and comfort her. She kept fighting him though. He continued to pull her close to him and trying to get her out of her horrid dream.
