He smiled as he felt it. "PRetty cool."

She nodded. "At times, they make it a little hard to sleep, but I know it'll be worth it."

"I wonder every day if it will be the day they'll finally come out." She closed her eyes, relaxing a little, then opened them slowly and looked at Guthan. "I jinxed it," she said, her voice still just as calm. "They're coming."

"Oh geeze," he said. "I can go get Arax like really quick. That's the psychotic nurse at the center."

She nodded and stepped back, lying down. Guthan held her hand. "This will be an ordeal for you."

He let Thunder out and got on her back. The large bird took off and returned a few minutes later with Arax and Nick.

Drayina lay silently, her eyes closed, resting up for what was to come.

"Can you tell how many there are and how many of human, Dratini, and morphs there are?"

She gently felt her belly.
[How many?]

[5 total, 2 human, 2 Dratini, and 1 morph.]
Drayina lay still.

"Two human, two Dratini and one morph."

She nodded. "This will take time and will not be easy, but I accepted it long ago." She closed her eyes, waiting until she was supposed to push.

She nodded, keeping an eye on her vitals.

A few hours passed before Drayina began to push. Not a sound escaped her lips. Not a single complaint or noise.

She shook her head in amazement. In all her years, she'd never seen a female not make a single noise during delivery.

Drayina quietly worked until all but one had been delivered. Only the morph remained. She looked up at Guthan. "Thank you," she said as she gave one last push, bringing the morph into the world. She gently held all 5 as they slept.

"That was most impressive," she said very quietly. "In al my days, never have I seen such a feat. Never to utter a single sound of pain during delivery."

"In my years, I've felt intense pain brought on by so many things, nearly all without reward. Yes, the pain was intense, but I knew the reward would be the best of all. How could I have complained about that?"

She nodded in understanding.

Guthan stooped down. Drayina gently moved her arms, allowing Guthan to cradle one of the baby Dratini. "Such a delicate, beautiful creature," he said. "To think, it is my daughter."

She gave her a quick check over again, then nodded. "Everything seems in order."

"Thank you for coming on such short notice," Guthan said.

"It is no problem, though he needs to keep his training less exhaustive." She glared at Nick who sweatdropped and looked away.

Guthan sat down. "I'm not sure how to get them home."

"I can teleport you back to your home."

He nodded. "I would very much appreciate it."
[Would you like to control one of the babies?]

[Not really]
She nodded and teleported with them to their house.
