in front of me in less than a heartbeat, his ears flat, tail lashing, as my name is screamed from the doorway of the room, and everyone goes dead silent... The only sounds are my wildly beating heart, the beeping of the many machines that I'm hooked up to, and Robyn's low, throaty growls.

" R-Ravyn? Are... Are you... Is it..." The voice asks, now much softer, as I grab Robyn by the waist tightly, snaking my fingers up his shirt to touch his smooth skin, and slowly peek around him.

" N-Niko?" I ask hoarsely, hope lacing my voice, as I raise my head, my eyes huge, and see him standing in the doorway... Hair a dishevled mess, eyes shrouded with dark bags, skin extremely pale with a slight grey tint to it, and his eyes wide and wild.

He races to me instantly, and, on instinct, I literally crawl over Robyn, one knee on his lower back just above his bum, my other leg extended out behind me and in-between his, while I fist my left hand into his shirt in-between his prominent shoulder blades, and press my right into the soft mattress right beside Robyn's head... Which is turned to the left.

" Happy reunion!" Jaxx claps, but I pay him no mind, as Niko cups my face in his large hands, earning a happy sigh from me, and smashes his lips against mine with need. I kiss him back greedily, but, once I realize I desperately need to come up for air, I pull back breathlessly, my cheeks burning red, and turn my head down shyly.

" Gerroff! Goddess Rav! That's my damn spine you're digging your knee into!" Robyn, saving me from embarrassment, thankfully, growls out, making me jump back with a squeak of surprise, as clamber off of him, my eyes wide, and begin to check him for injuries... Ha! How ironic is that?! I got stabbed by a psycho who is trying to kill me, and I'm checking for injuries! What is my life?

Right as I pull him up to just be sure he is one-hundred percent okay, he suddenly gives a playful growl, earning a confused look from me, and tackles me to the bed. I feel the IV's tug on my arms, shooting pain through me, and I instantly give a cry of pain.

" Ravyn?!" Niko, Jazz and Robyn all exclaim at once, instantly coming to my aid, as I squeeze my left eye shut from the pain, and begin to scratch furiously at my wrapped arms. Allistar comes over, and begins to swiftly unwrap my arms.

I watch him with guarded eyes, not liking that he's touching me, but find myself smiling softly, as he pulls out all of my IV's, casts them aside, and turns off the blasted machines that are making my ears ring. I stretch out my arms, my eyes glistening with thanks, as my pain melts away, and, after shifting into my Fox, which, to my surprise, is now slightly bigger, only a few inches smaller than Robyn's, I stoop down, bum waggling in the air, and growl softly at Robyn.

He looks at me for a moment, his eyes so huge I can see my reflection in them, before he smiles lovingly at me, and shifts into his sleek Fox. He gets into the same position as me, his coal black eyes gleaming with pure mischeif, and then, I tackle him.

" Be careful!" Niko warns, worry lacing his voice, as I tackle Robyn clean off the bed, the two of us landing on the hard tile floor with a soft 'thump', and begin to wrestle around with him. Right as I'm grabbing ahold of Robyn's ear, growling the whole way, a furry, spotted body rams into me, and I am thrown across the floor.

" Goddess... Be careful!" I look up, shaking my head, as Finn, who looks tired and worried at the same time, rushes into the Infirmary room with his eyes wild, and nearly rams into Niko in the process. The Vampire swiftly grabs ahoy of his bicep, steading him on his feet, before he pulls away, and takes a seat on the long, blue padded bench beside Jaxx.

" Handfuls, eh?" Finn chuckles, gently nudging the spotted little rat, also known as my best friend in the whole world, besides Robyn of course, Lukah, away from his boot, as Niko nods, yawning, and looks at me lovingly.

" You've got that right... But you can't help but adore them!" Jaxx butts in, leaning his head on Niko's shoulder, as the eldest boy wraps his arm around the nodding off boy, and rests his head against Jaxx's.

I tear my gaze away from Niko, a small growl leaving my lips, as I feel sharp teeth grab onto my tail, and give a tug. I turn around, my eyes narrowed playfully, as I see Lukah walking backwards, his teeth clamped around the tip of my fluffy red tail, and hear his soft growls.

" Don't hurt him Love..." Finn says softly, yawning, as he leans back against the wall, and begins to nod off as well. I swat at Lukah with my claws out, aiming for his muzzle, when he jerks backs suddenly, releasing my tail in the process, and I tumble, head-over-tail, to the cold floor.

I bump my chin against the linoleum, but I quickly push the slight ache away, my lips peeled back in a slight snarl, and pull myself onto my paws. I shake out my very ruffled fur, paw gently at my nuzzle, and whirl around.

" Play... Nice." I hear Niko murmur, half asleep, as I flick my ear in response, not even bothering to look back at him, as I crouch low to the floor, my belly fur and chest brushing against the cold tile, and pounce.

I tackle Lukah successfully, my tail waving around wildly, as I press my paws against his fluffy chest, giving him a very strange looking grin, and growl at him. He gives a soft chirp, which seems to alert Finn for some reason, because, the next thing I know, I am hanging in the air... Dangling from the jaws of a very massive Lion.

' Uh... What?' I whisper to myself, my eyes wide, as I cock my head to the side in utter confusion, my ears laid flat against my head, and press my front paws against my chest.

Lukah pulls himself up, his mouth curved in what seems to be a very smug smirk, as I look at him in pure shock, and feel myself itching to tackle him. That little rat! He freaking juked me! Well played Lu... Well. Freaking. Played!

' He totally played you Pup!' Robyn chuckles playfully to me, playing around with Finn's flicking tail, as Lukah bounds up to us, and weaves himself between the big kitty's front paws.

Finn places me down, earning a small 'oomph' from me, as I land on my stomach, my back legs thrown out behind me, my chin pressed on the floor, my tail draped over my right back paw, my left front paw tucked under my chest, and my right one thrown out, and just lay there.

" Be gentle with him Finn..." Niko says, murmuring softly under his breath, as he peels open one eye, and then returns to getting some rest with Jaxx asleep on his shoulder.

Finn gives a soft snort in response, leans his big head down, and gently nudges me with his cold, wet nose. I look up at him, giving a yawn, as exhaustion takes hold, and I close my eyes again.

I feel a furry body press against mine, and I peel open one eye to see Robyn laying beside me... He looks over at me, and begins to gently groom my ruffled fur... Earning soft purrs from me, as I tuck my head under his chin, and turn my head so I have my nose pressed into his thick chest fur.

' Sweet dreams Otouto...' He murmurs softly to me, making me mentally smile at how precious he is, as I give him a gentle lick, and drift off to sleep. Right before I welcome sweet sleep, I feel another furry body press against my other side, Lukah, and he drapes his paws over my back... Laying his head in-between them. Goddess... I'm so happy to be alive...
