After 3 hours of riding, I could hear Anne calling me as well as see a few bird kids flying above my head.
"*sigh* okay Jack, time to go back." I say, he nodds and trots full speed back to the barn.

I jump off of Jacks back and really smoothly, I might add. Opening the stall, I gesture for Jack to go in and he does.
"By-" I cut myself off when I suddenly become dizzy and nauseous.
"I'm just going to rest a minute" I groan, sinking down against Jacks stall.
"Belle?" I hear Anne say from the barn doors
"Yup" I say, popping the 'p'
She walks over and squats in front of me.
"What's wrong?" She asks
"Either I have ebola, or morning sickness has cursed me." I say and she let's out a few chuckles
"I'm going to go with morning sickness." She says standing up and holding a hand out for me which I gladly took.
"Darn, I was thinking I would have better luck with ebola." I tried to joke, but I was so dizzy that I would have fallen if it weren't for Anne catching me.
"Belle?!" She exclaimed and slowly sat me down with my back resting against the wall.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy." I say and she gives me a worried look.
"Then I'm going to go and get Fang so he can carry you inside...... I think the heat is starting to get to you." She says and jogs out of the barn. A few moments later, Fang flys in, bringing a gust of wind with him. I sigh in content at the cool breeze.
"Why did you ride for so long if you weren't feeling well?" He asks, kneeling in front of me.
"I felt fine until I got off and tried to walk around." I say and throw a hand over my mouth, trying to hold in an on-coming gag.
"Hop on." He sighs and turns so his back is facing me. I don't even try to argue, and just climb on, somehow stumbling.
He gasps and practically light-speeds to the house.
"ANGEL!" He calls, and sets me down on a kitchen counter.
"What!?" Angel asks frantically as she appears at the door way.
"Do your doctor thing." He says slightly worried...... I thought​ Angel said he was practically emotionless unless it was Max. Even then he was shut off though. Angel takes one look at me and her eyes widden.
"Fang, go get Iggy, I need his ears." She says and Fang runs off.
"What's the sitch?" I ask
She walks up to me and puts a hand on my forehead.
"Well, we are going to put you in an ice bath. But the other thing is that I sense more than one mutant." She says, pointing to my stomach.
I look down and see that I already looked about 4 months.
"Angel, didn't you say it would take almost a month for me to get this big?" I ask.
"Well, I thought it was only one baby at that time." She said and Iggy walked in.
"Belle, lift up your shirt." Angel says more than asks so I do.
"Iggy, please listen to her stomach and tell me what you hear." Angel says.
Iggy walks up to me and leans down, putting his ear against my stomach.
His sightless eyes widden.
"We are going to need to have a flock meeting tonight." Iggy says and we all nod.
Okaaaaaay, well then I'm going to go for a walk.
I hop off the counter, but am hit with a wave of nausea.
"Someone carry her to her bathroom so I can put her in an ice bath." Angel requests and walks away.
Iggy automatically picks me up bridal style and walks up the stairs.
"Thank you." I say, earning a nod in response.

By the time Angel had finished turning me into a wolfcicle and I was wrapped in a few blankets, it was dinner time. I slowly walk into the room because I am still shivering.
"Was it really necessary to make her stay in the water so long?" Anne asked
"Yes, her temperature needed to go back to normal, and her body heat kept melting the ice, so refilling until it takes an hour for the ice to melt will keep her at a good temperature for a few hours at least." Angel responds and I go to sit down, but I gag and throw my hand over my mouth, jumping up to run to the bathroom, puking in the toilet.

Definitely morning sickness.
I can hear everyone talking at the table, even a few words of concern, but I know the flock isn't going to want me to go with them. At that thought, I start to violently heave even though the first round barely had any substance.
Once it all stops, I start to try to stand up. But since I'm just full of issues, my knees were so wobbly that they gave out and I collapsed. Instead of trying again or calling for help, I layed down on one of the carpets, attempting to relax since my breathing was so heavy.
While attempting to slow my breathing to a normal pace, I didn't notice that Fang had walked in until he knelt down in front of me.
"Are you okay?" He asked, lying on the ground and turning on his side so that he was looking me in the eye.
I just put a simple thumbs up and curl inwards a little more.
"Aside from the barfing, is anything else wrong?" He asks and I shake my head, letting him know that I'm fine.
"Then why are you lying on the ground?"
"I'm tired." I reply in a raspy voice, letting out a small yawn as if to confirm. Fang let out a small chuckle and stood up.
"Alright, I'll take you to bed." He said, carefully picking me up.
I catch a wif of something related to golden rods and sneeze and Fang freezes in place as I hear a slight crackling. When I see the drapes that are now on fire, I let out a small yelp and throw my hands up, somehow forming a sheer, purplish dome over it. This causes it to flicker out.
"Meditation. That's what I'll do. That should help, it's what helped when I first got my powers, so why wouldn't it help now?" I say to myself while trudging to the living room where I search through cabinets for candles.
Fang also walks in, but goes straight to the kitchen. Probably to tell them what just happened. Angel walks out with her arms crossed
"You are either going to light yourself on fire, or Iggy and Gazzy are going to use you as a bomb spark." She says and I almost laugh but a small pang of pain goes through my lower abdomen. Angel notices my discomfort and  gives me a hug
"You go meditate, I'll come get you later for the meeting and make sure nobody disturbs you." She says and skips away.
Well okay.

"Belle." I hear a soft voice say, resulting in the opening of my eyes. I gasp at the position of the moon, letting me know it's past midnight.
"It's time for the meeting." Angel says, holding a hand out for me.
"Okay." I say softly, taking her outstretched hand.
We silently walk to the room she, Nudge, and Max share.

"Belle, did Iggy tell you why we were having a meeting?" Max asks as we walk into the room.
"No." I say quietly bowing my head because I might already know the awnser.
"We already knew you were pregnant, but now we know with how many." Iggy says and Fang gives me a sad look.
"It's triplets."
