Trinity's POV

"Back up," I yell, as the waves of the darkened air ripple. I am refusing to let it defeat me. I hear wicked cackles as if it was pleasurable for the cloud to think it was stronger than me. I hold out my hand as if telling the cloud to come forth. My eyes are narrow and I am ready for action. The cloud inches closer as I wave my hand around in it. "Leave me be, you lightning STORM!" I screech, as the cloud lowers closer to the ground. Its particles break away and eventually, it is just a spread out pile of ashes and black glitter on the ground. I am quickly forced back into my human host. I feel my mother shaking my arm rapidly and my eyes open at lightning speed. "Trinity! Wake up! Hayden's in labor," She informs. I exhale deeply out of stress as I turn to her with excited, but worried eyes. "Alright, just make sure she knows that I told her good luck and that I love her," I say, very calmly as I rub my forehead. I know better than many people in this world what a do or die situation is, and this certainly is one.

Trinity's POV

Mum bursts into my room with news on the tip of her tongue. I'm not sure how she managed it, but she looks relieved and nervous at the same time. "She's having a C-section," she calmly informs. I assumed she wouldn't be able to handle natural birth at the state of emotion she's in. I pray for her quietly, as I know this procedure has been performed many times before.

Mum's POV

I sit in the waiting room wanting to bite my fingernails off at that very moment. The doctor walks into my room and tells me I can see her now. I pick up my things and walk into where Hayden lays asleep. "The baby is currently in the nursery," I am informed by a doctor. Its been hours and Hayden has still not woken up. It is now at the point where it couldn't have been the anaesthesia keeping her asleep anymore. The doctor turns on the heart monitor, and her heart is giving slow, spaced out beats. My eyes fill with tears, as I fear she is going. "Ms. Higgens," the doctor says, "there appears to be something wrong with Hayden."
