Roleplay- 3rd of December

Saffron nips Aliya paw and growls again

Ninja is surprised by how fast Linda is walking. It was hard enough for her to just walk during the day but this is an urgancy that requires quick action. He matches his pace with Linda's as he keeps her supported. His expression is mixed between nervousness, determination and excitement. In just a matter several minutes him and Linda are about to become proud parents. Ninja sighs in relief when they reach the burrow. He looks at Linda nervous about what the out come could be of her giving birth. He hopes every pup survives the trip into the world.

Conker doesn't mind the early trek back home. He's too fixated on wanting to know what's going on between Linda and Saffron.

Linda stops momentarily, feeling another wave, and increased pain after that. She sighs in relief when they arrive. It's starting get unbearable trying to walk. She stands up for a moment and looks around, before stumbling into the burrow. When she next emerges, she will be back to her normal slender build, and a new mother.

Duke sits at the entrance.

Ninja follows Linda into the burrow feeling nervous and excited. The big moment has finally arrived. They waited several weeks for this and today's the day he and Linda will become proud parents. His breathing elevates and his heart races bracing himself for the birthing process. He preys that no complications come up.

Conker watches Ninja and Linda head into the burrow still oblivious to what's going on.

Linda heads into the same chamber she picked out the day she joined near the bottom, which she's worked on a few times since. She lays down against the wall facing the entrance, in a small bank of soft sand. She cleans the area around her and relaxes a little, knowing she's at the safest place to give birth now, with her mate at her side.

Saffron follows them she wants to know whats happing

Ninja enters the chosen chamber Linda had preped days before for the birth. He lays by her side and places a paw on her's then looks up at her confident that things will go smoothly. He'll remain by her side no matter hard it gets for him to watch Linda push through the pain. He decides to keep his mind on the exciting events that happen afterwards as the birthing process begins.

Linda smiles slightly but warmly and nuzzles Ninja gently. She's been waiting for this moment for a long time just like him, and even longer if she counts the dreams she had before even meeting Ninja. She cringes at another painful surge and looks at her large belly. Not only will they finally have the pups they've been expecting, but she'll be back to normal size, and given a few days, be able to do all the things she used to be able to do.

Saffron peeps watching Linda she wonders whats happing

Ninja returns a nervous smile and nuzzles her as she did. His body is shaking from the excitement and he tenses up trying to stop his uncontrollable shaking. He never thought he'd see this day but it had appeared he was eventually destined to. He frowns when he sees Linda cringe. He hated to see her in pain but knows that after this she'll be back to her old self and there will be little bundles of joy laying beside them in the burrow tonight. He sees Saffron peering into the chamber and reassures her that everything is fine.

Saffron walks in slowly

Ninja watches Saffron enter unsure. He thinks this is too much for a young pup to see.

Aliya watches Linda go below ground. She hopes she'll be okay.

Emzio watches Linda go into the burrow, nervous.

Suri also watches.

Conker stares into the burrow entrance panic striken. He hopes Linda and Saffron are ok.

Saffron sat down and looked at Linda

ooc- I wanted this to be private between Linda and Ninja.

ic- Linda watches as Saffron comes in and only stares at her. She only wants Ninja at her side right now, and wants anyone else to leave.

Duke stares into the burrow but does no more. He knows how touchy females can be at times like this, and knows Ninja will call if help is needed.

Saffron leaves and heads for the burrow entrces

Ninja nods with a serious expression. It's best that she leaves so he and Linda can be alone at this prescious moment. He watches her leave then looks back over at Linda with an excited smile.

ooc- I'm a little de-railed at the moment after what happened on MH. I'll be slow to post a little bit. Also, I'll have the pups be born tommorrow. I don't have time tonight.

ic- Linda rests her head between her paws. No pups yet, but she can feel that one will arrive in any minute.

ooc: Ok. That's fine:)

Linda tesnes up at another pain surge. It's agonizingly painful for her, but it will be worth it.

Duke stays near the entrance. He discourages the other pups from going down to check on them at the moment.

Ninja grits his teeth. Seeing Linda in pain tore at his heart, but he knows the outcome of this pain will have been worth the ordeal. He can see her muscles contracting in reponse to the pain. He keeps a calm spirit and does his best to try to soothe her with some grooing.

Conker stands at the burrow entrance tempted go down below to see what's going on but refrains from doing so as Duke prevents him and the other pups from entering.

Linda peeps quietly to Ninja, reassuring him that she'll be alright.

Ninja nods assured. He tries to keep calm but on the inside, everything is going haywire.

Aliya sits by Duke, worried for Linda's sake.

Emzio sits near Aliya.

Suri looks around.
