New Kingdom

Rai calmed down. looking up at his wife as his body laied in the shallow water. "I really wanna take you home" he said with a smile. "promise me you'll go as soon as the babies are born"

Larien smiled. "We'll all four go." She said placing her hands on her belly. "Can you get up for a sec?" She asked.

"oh yeah..sorry" Yuki said getting up,his body wet and sandy from the beach like envornment

"I wanna get in," Larien giggled as she slowly walked into the shallow end of the water and went just enough that her belly was half way in.

Rai went into the water with her, making shure she didnt slip or hurt herself or the babies "Careful now..theres a slippery rock up ahead"

"I see that, dear," Larien said as she let herself into the water slowly, but stayed in the shallow end so she didn't have to kick her feet.

"Ok, just making shure" Rai said sitting down next to her, his head closer to the water then hers, due to the fact that his torso was shorter

Larien leaned on the bank of the lake and laughed. "I think the babies like water," she said as she felt them moving around inside her.

"maybe.." Rai said, leaning on her sholder, watching the clouds pass with his wife.

Larien sighed, watching the clouds. "I wish I could swim around and have fun like we used to.."

"Its alright. its only another month right?" Rai asked, forgetting how long elven pregnancies lasted

Larien blushed and shook her head. "A month and a half."

"oh? so your not counting the half of a month before the wedding or are you?" Rai laughed, knowing she most likely was.

Larien looked at him and smiled. "yes I'm counting it."

"ah." Rai said, feeling sleepy for some reason, laying downin the water, his head resting on a mossy rock

Larien smiled as she somewhat wadded away from him as the mist of the waterfall hit her face.

Rai felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, then sat up, pulling on the source of pain, a spine coming out of it, luckaly the puncture wound wasnt all that deep. "oww...what the hell?!!" he said before feeling his body get heavy, sleepy and parilyzed

"Oh no.." Larien said as she noticed him slowly sinking into the water. "Hold on, babies," she said as she moved her body against the current and held his arm, keeping his head above the water. As she moved him, a spider looking fish swam away under the water fall. "Hmm... I thought Dorin killed all of the Reclus-Fish.." She struggled to pull Rai out of the water, careful about how much she bent over.

"l..larien..what happend" Raito asked as he started to fall asleep, not realizing his body was slowly starting to shut down

"Just hold still.." Larien said as she placed her forehead on his. "Don't worry, this won't hurt the babies.." She smiled as she closed her eyes and the air around them seemed to shimmer as she spoke in elven.

Rai felt a strange sensation flow through his body as her hand began to glow slightly. "what...wha.." he said closing his eyes, the poision working faster then it should. his body had almost shutdown half way

The blue glow quickly turned green as she dispersed the poison from his body, creating orchids in the fields around them with it. Her body somewhat shook as it drained his body of the poison.

"Larien!" Raito said as he caught her as she started to colapse, his body completely free of the poision. "what did you do?!"

Larien smiled as she lay beside him, the glow disappearing. "I drained the poison from you.." She said weakly before her eyes closed, her head laying next to a blue orchid created by the poison but it was no longer dangerous.

"Larien...you rest as much as you need to...youve earned it" Rai said, laying down next to her. falling asleep by her side, his body still weak from the poison
