Dia chuckled and looked to Torvil's friend, "The middle name is yours." she smiled.

Ika smiled, "we have rooms upstairs for you, if you'd like to stay the night, rest up, and gain back some strength and energy."

Ala nodded "Someone is gonna have to probably fetch some strong people to move my mate... but yes I agree, stay and recuperate... and feed my son"

Little Surion was quietly looking around

Asmodeus was silent for a moment. He brushed at his eye and sighed. "I must go..." He murmured... And stood, looking to Dia for a moment and giving her a smile. "You did a good job today..." With that he shimmered out.

Torvil stirred a little and woke a bit. "I need a bed or something... Or a chair..." He chuckled softly. "This floor isn't cutting it..." He murmured looking down at his son with a smile.

"Room upstairs love, I need to feed him" Ala said moving to climb from the tub

Dia climbed out of the tub, and moved to help Ala

Ala smiled and accepted her help

Ika went to grab a robe and handed it to Ala as she climbed out.

Torvil nodded, and got up, holding Lil Sur close to him. Waiting for her to be able to hold him.

Ala pulled it around herself and turned to take her wrapped son from his father

Torvil smiled and handed Lil Sur off to his mother. "He's gorgeous love... Like you..." He kissed Ala's cheek softly when he made sure she had him. "I'm going to go sleep... But wake me if you need anything..."

Ika turned to Torvil, "I'll take you the room if you'd like."

Torvil nodded. "Thanks, would you? I'm still a little confused with this place..." he said heading out the door.

Ika led Torvil upstairs to one of the rooms reserved for new parents.

Torvil collapsed into bed, passing out.

Ala looked down at her son "I should find somewhere to sit before I fall" she said quietly to Dia

Dia went and grabbed the wheel chair that was still in the room and wheeled to ala to sit down in

Ala sat down "Who would have thought I'd wind up here eh?" she said looking up at her friend

Dia smiled, "no kidding." she said softly, standing by Ala and looking at the new baby. "He's cute...but looks painful." she mused.

"It was, but now it's not so bad" she ran a finger across his cheek and he turned to suckle it "I think he's hungry" she said with a laugh. and moved the robe to feed him

"Did the horns hurt?" she asked, eyeing the little ones Surion's head.

"I think it all did, but the horns probably contributed, plus his size, he's definitely bigger then the twins were at birth" she stroked the side of his head as he nursed

"Will he grow as fast as they did?" She asked quietly.

"Somehow I have a feeling he wont..." she said softly "And to be honest I hope he doesn't, to me he is a bit of a miracle child I want that childhood to last "

Dia smiled. "Ala, this was an amazing thing. Thank you for letting me be a part of it." she said, a tear rolling down her cheek.

"I'd say anytime, but I don't know how many more I'll have, if any... but just the same, you are welcome"

Dia chuckled. "You're lucky. So's that baby." she said softly.

She pulled Surion from her breast as he finished, then burped him "Wanna hold him ?" she asked her friend

"huh? now?" Dia fidgeted, "don't you want to hold him longer." she blushed.

Ala chuckled "I can hold him all the time..." she smiled softly

Dia chuckled, "well...maybe then I suppose I don't have an excuse." she knelt down beside Ala and held her arms out. "I won't hurt him...will I?"

Ala shook her head "just support his head and You'll do fine" she said

Dia nervously, but gently took the infant into her arms. "Wow...he's so fragile." she whispered.

"And you helped him come into this world" she said softly

Dia laughed softly and blushed. "As much as I would like to take credit for that...I think you and Torvil are the ones that did."

Ala chuckled "But you helped with his birth.... Dia... I want you to be his god-mother" she said softly

Dia looked up at Ala, "seriously?"

Ala nodded "Seriously... I want you to be his god-mother"

Dia's eyes swelled up with tears. "Ala...that's...I don't know what to say." She said, choking on the words a little. "It would be an honor."

Ala smiled "good, I'll tell Torvil tomorrow, I doubt he'd disagree"

Dia chuckled a little. She held little Surion close to her. "godmother." she whispered under her breath. "I need to figure out where to get a wand now." she chuckled.

Ala laughed hard then stopped with a light grimace "Ouch... remind me not to laugh to hard for a while" she said

Dia winced lightly, empathetic for the pain her friend just felt. "sorry." she said sheepishly.

"It's ok, you didn't know.. Guess I should put that bead with the others eh?" she said eyeing the pile of beads on her clothing she'd taken off

Dia smiled, "when you get a chance, you don't have to do it now." she said softly, standing up to hand the baby back to his mom.

Ala nodded and took the child "Who do you think he looks most like?" she asked stroking his soft skin as he looked up at her

Dia looked at his face. "I see both of you. But I think...maybe more Torvil in his cheeks and mouth."

Ala chuckled "I have to agree..."

Dia smiled and watched the baby with his mommy. She was so envious of Ala.

"You'll have one some day..." she said quietly "You just need to settle on a mate" she looked up to Dia

Dia blushed. "yeah...that's the hard part." she chuckled.

Ala smiled "It can be, or it can be simple, depends on the feelings of both"

Dia nodded. "yeah...but it will be hard for me. I know that much." she sighed. "I can't choose, I want them all." she laughed.

Ala had to stifle her laugh cause she knew she'd burst out laughing hard

Dia blushed, "sorry." she said meekly.

Ala shook her head "It's ok Dia, not your fault... I'm just rather sore right now... His birth truly was a lot more painful then the twins'"

Ika popped her head in the door. "Is everything ok? How are you feeling Ala?" she said as she approached the 2.

Ala looked towards Ika "I'm ok, really sore, but ok" she smiled

Ika smiled, "I'm glad your doing well."

Dia smiled, "thank you Ika."

"Torvil fall asleep again?" she had to smile, she was a bit tired but she did feel like she got her second wind

Ika smiled, "Aye, he did. Poor dear was exhausted."

"I think stress got him more then anything... he was worried about this pregnancy" Ala told her

"I hope his worry is eased some now. I'm not sure how successful we were in helping to ease you, but I'm glad that we got thru it without incident." Ika said

Ala smiled softly "I did feel the energy, just took a bit of the edge off really. Thankyou though I really did appreciate it"

Ika smiled, and put her hand on Ala's shoulder. "Well have the birth records for Surion waiting for you at the front desk in the morning. Until then, please enjoy your stay and our hospitality. If you need anything, there's a buzzer in your room, and someone will come. There's staff here round the clock. Unfortunately I need to say goodnight, as its time for me to head home. It was a pleasure to assist you today, Ala."

Ala smiled and nodded "Thanks, for the info a while ago... and your help today"

Ika smiled, gave Ala's shoulder a squeeze and headed out.

Ala smiled watching her leave then looked down at her son who was now asleep in her arms "I wanted another child, looks like I got what I wanted. I would say what I dreamt... but I don't dream"

Dia looked at her friend, "There's 2 things about that statement I want to address." she chuckled, "first, I didn't know you didn't dream."

Ala chuckled "No Kerrsalian can once their abilities manifest, I lost the ability to dream when I was about 7"

"that's so sad." Dia said, frowning a little. "but ala...dreams aren't only what we do at night."

"It's kinda like a black void for me, like nothingness. I've gotten used to it over the years. Not that I don't wish I still could..." She smiled softly

Dia smiled a bit, "You can still dream of having a child, if that's what your heart wants, then it can be a dream. You don't just have to picture it in your mind when you sleep."

Ala smiled "I guess that's true... I never really thought about it like that"

Dia smiled and stood up on her knees to look at Surion again. "Its amazing...you just ... created life."

Ala looked down "Yeah, I suppose I did, and you helped bring life into the world too..."

Dia chuckled, "All I did was catch him."

"And bring him up and help him take his first breath of air." Ala added

Dia blushed, "yeah...sorry I had to spank him." she said meekly.

"You didn't spank him, that requires multiple smacks. you simply startled his system into inhaling" She smiled

Dia laughed, "it was still weird."

Ala lifted the corner of the blanket from Surion's sleeping form "He has a tail, I guess that would be my tail" she giggled seeing it wrapped around the hip of her son

Dia peeked in, "yeah, its neat he was born with it. I wasn't even born with mine."

Ala chuckled "Neither was I, bit that's ok, just means he doesn't have to put up with the pain if he were ever to grow one... I should probably find him a diaper before he soils this blanket"

Dia got up and looked around to see if Ika had left any. There was a pile by the door and she went to look thru it. "Blankets, towels, a robe, Ah! diapers." she took one to Ala.

Ala chckled "Thanks Dia" she repositioned her son in her lap and after a couple of tries to keep him positioned and an adjustment to the diaper for his little tail she got it on him.

Dia watched. "you're so good at that" she said quietly

"Practice Dia" she said with a chuckle "Even if that was only a few days worth"

Dia chuckled, "I meant being a mom in general." She walked over, putting a hand on Ala's shoulder.

Ala blushed lightly wrapping her son up again and pulling his form against her chest so that her arm was under his bottom and he was leaning against her head turned towards her shoulder

Dia smiled. "ala" she said quietly. "who was the guy that was here? the one who's name you used for Surion's middle name?"

"He's the guardian of the other side. He's helped Torvil out of more scrapes then I can count" she said with a nod

Dia smiled. "He smelled...different...than most guys do." she said.

"Probably cause he spends most of his time in the world of the dead" she said quietly

Dia nodded. "I see."

Ala nodded and yawned "Ok I think Everything that happened is catching up with me now" she said

"do you need help up to the room?"

"Very likely, considering I'm still very sore, and don't have a clue where it is" she said "I can't forget my clothing though"

Dia went and gathered up Ala's things from the floor and set them on her lap. "I'll push up there." she chuckled as she took the handles on the wheelchair and pushed towards the door.

"Thanks Dia" she said with a soft laugh "And you'll have to see me again before I head home" she said with a nod

"You better believe I'll be knocking on your door bright and early, not letting you get away without a goodbye." she chuckled as she opened the door, then pushed Ala thru.

Ala giggled "Good, Can't leave Kazeha without my son seeing his god-mother"

Dia smiled. "I'll have to make sure I visit more often now, too. Not go getting myself snatched anymore." she laughed.

"Harder to get 'snatched' or attacked in the air... you'll need to get over your fears so you don't have that worry" she said with a nod

Dia smiled, "yeah, that's true." she pushed Ala up the long winding incline that wound around the building heading to the second floor.

"I swear this place is a maze...." she mused watching her surroundings

Dia chuckled, "only if its your first time."

Ala laughed "It is"

Dia laughed too, "I know." Well, it looks like you are staying in room #3 she said as she entered the long hallway and looked down to see blue balloons and streamers adorning the door of room #3

Ala giggled "Someone had fun" she said noticing the decorations as well

As they approached the door, there was a small rolled parchment address to Ala and Torvil attached to the door.

Ala blinked and smiled "wonder who that is from" she mused

Dia plucked it off the door and handed it to Ala.

The letter said:

Congratulations and thank you for honoring us by choosing to deliver your precious bundle at our hospital. It was a pleasure to serve you and your family. Here's good luck for the future, Call on us anytime.
Love, Ika + the staff of Kazeha Byouin

Ala smiled softly "I'll have to remember to send them a lil gift"

Dia slowly opened the door, and pushed Ala inside slowly, and quietly, so she didn't wake Torvil.

"If he's truly asleep like I'm sure he is, he's dead to the world right now, not a whole lot will wake him...." she smirked

Dia chuckled softly and bent down to hug Ala and Surion. "Thank you again, Ala. And congratulations."

"Thanks Dia, I really appreciated you being there for me" she said returning the hug

"Anytime, I'm always going to be here for you." she said softly as she stood back up. "I'll leave you to your hubby and new baby and to get some rest now."

Ala nodded and pushed herself from the chair "I'll see you tomorrow then" she said softly locating and placing her son in the bassinette and turning to Dia

"definately." Dia nodded, and went to give Ala one last hug.

Ala pulled her close giving her a big hug before letting go

Dia smiled, "have a good night my friend." and with that, Dia left the room, pulling the door shut behind her.

Ala curled up on the bed left next to Surion and dozed off
