--Emmett's POV--
"Am I delirious from pain or is he really standing there?" Vince grimaced clamping his eyes shut tightening his grip on Igneus' hand, Juvia looked up from sorting out her medical equipment and her mouth dropped.

"Nope. He's really there" She swallowed dryly hopping up from the end of the bed cautiously moving over to Cressida "I don't sense a heartbeat. Something sinister is going on here" She narrowed her eyes at me and Nick who had also been requested by Vince.

"Unlike Igneus. I am just a walking talking corpse, not fully animated no thanks to these knuckleheads" He huffed thrusting his thumb at us and Nick pouted childishly crossing his arms grumpily.

"Is that why I can't see his pretty purple eyes" Vince started to scowl and Cressida nodded in return pressing his lips into a straight line.

"We'll be downstairs, it'll be too crowded up here for all of us" Lucien offered wrapping a hand around my arm.

"Wait. I want Emmett to stay, assist Juvia." He smiled and Lucien nodded letting go of my arm and closing the door behind him and Nick.

"I know you absorbed Isidor's powers by the way." Vince mumbled lifting his head barely before he was forced back by Igneus "You died." He seethed yelping suddenly in pain and I knew I was in for it.

"Enough Vince, leave him until after we get this baby out" Juvia rolled her eyes draping a ready towel over my arms "Next contraction I want you to give me your worst, this should be it." She coached and Vince glared at her venomously dropping his chin to his chest
"How long has this been going?" I gawked suddenly ready to bolt at any given time.

"Since you left this morning so a solid five hours." She kept her eyes trained on Vince who was steadily paling worse than when I had came in "Em, can you find the unit of blood in my bag and hook him to it. He's bleeding a little heavily" She nodded to her satchel hanging off the hook on the door.

I nodded tripping my way over to rummage around for the blood bag in her satchel before getting back to Vince to insert the needle into his hand to connect it with the bag. "Now get back here and help" She ordered tossing the towel back to me.

"I'll do my best" I choked picking up the top towel from the stack standing out of Juvia's way, Vince's exhausted gaze met my own briefly before they clamped shut with a broken sob. Juvia pulled back just as a loud strangled squeal broke the silence handing the wailing bloodied newborn into the towel in my arms staining it a crimson red.

"Hey there little asskicker" I laughed down at the pale skinned dark haired baby boy squirming and crying up a storm in my arms bunching his hands up into fists and scrunching his eyes shut.

"Are they okay?" Vince rasped lifting his head weakly and I immediately clicked back out of my trance wiping the blood out of his face and skin wrapping the towel around him tightly before handing him over to Vince.

"He, is fine. Little but healthy" Juvia grinned tossing her gloves into the wastebin clasping her hands together excitedly.

"I owe you and Lucien so much Emmett. This little guy wouldn't be here if Lucien didn't ya know stab my mate" Vince smirked and Igneus gave him a grumpy look gently kissing his forehead.

"You don't owe us nothing Vince." I shook my head shoving my hands into my pockets.

"Do we have a name for little one?" Juvia asked eagerly possibly writing out the notice for the demonoids.

"Maison Emmett Lucien Kaien." Vince beamed and Igneus agreed immediately leaving me no room to protest whatsoever.

"Right. I might leave you guys alone, I am exhausted." I rubbed my hand over my face and retired from the room slowly making my way downstairs into the living room where Nick, Lucien and Cressida were waiting anxiously.
