It was the immediate second Lucia got into the hospital, her feral chimera tried unearthing, I had no choice but to sting her again.
The beast has always been untamed but now, it was more than untamed, it was consumed by bloodlust. I tried a communications spell but got a low, pissed off growl that replied "fuck you human, I do not reason with your kind."
I scoffed lightly and pressed on aggressiveness "if you don't let Lucia take control I will banish you to my good friend named Enzo Gabriel.." it went completely silent, a low grumble was the only reply "I'll take that as a yes."

I cut off the spell as the beast insulted the collector, calling him/them a 'child God with no decorum who hardly deserves to be called a God.' then many strings of curses.
I look at Lucia's uncomfortable unconscious expression, her back arches slightly as her expression upturns in pain, her struggling voice mumbling someone's name.

Amity goes to reply before cupping her hand over her face, I raise an eyebrow slightly.
Two nurses set Lucia on a hospital bed before hooking her up to the respirator, she gasps raspily before sighing. Skin furring over on her arm as she claws at the bed, she seems to be in a lot more pain than before, but with a communications spell there's silence. It must be a memory coming back to her.
My venom wears off, making her body wake up again. She opens her eyes and looks around, I smile with a laugh. "Luz.. I. Um.. thank you." I shake my head, she sits up as she tries to pull her much much longer hair back.
I stop her, she glares at me with her dark hazel eyes. I shake my head with a soft smile, using my summoning glyph I take the brush that'd appeared and run it through her hair.

She seems to stop in her tracks, sighing gently she closes her eyes. I let two long locks of hair dangle in front of her ears like it did before, parting her hair in the front I bring up her hair and tie it in the back. It looks quite similar to her past style but, now that it's slightly longer than shoulder length she looks like link.
the door to the hospital room almost slams open, revealing a golden eyed, auburn haired woman who seems on the verge of a mental breakdown.

"Mi...Mi hermosa princesa?" Lucia asks quietly in her untrained voice, she slowly approaches the bed with a weak expression.
The woman falls almost to her knees as she buries her face in Lucia's knees, back heaving from quiet cries, hands trembling as they grip Lucia's slightly battered white shirt.
For some reason I couldn't recognize the woman, Amity seems to be in pure shock. "Amelia.. she.. she hasn't been seen anywhere in gravesfield since Lucia went missing.." I jerked my head towards Amity's whispering, Amelia? As in Amity's second eldest sister??

Lucia quietly shushes Amelia as she looks down at her, eyes desperate to find a way to cheer her up.
"Amel.. hey. Don't cry." She lifts her head up with a frown, thumbs brushing away her tears. Her thumbs trail down to the edges of her lips, me and Amity exit the room to give the two one millisecond from kissing girls some privacy. The sound of their lips parting is heard before a relieved, stressed giggle from Amelia. "I know it's a sweet reunion but, mom, mama will be here a soon." I warn with a frown, Amelia seems to be embarrassed by the thought before saying with a smile "thank you.. for finding her." I nod and exit the room.

Standing next to Amity as she sits she looks up at me, "so.. what happened in the woods? The uh.. nibble thing." I feel myself frown, "our beasts.. don't know about our personal lives until we go full form.. my.. beast. Was trying to "breed" you because your fear heightened your estrogen. The shaking was me getting back into control."

She coughs slightly at the thought of a full on manticore- might I add female manticore, not me, trying to conceive a young manticore.
"Unique..." was all she could say, I frown and pull up a chair, sitting down I lean my head on her shoulder. She kisses my forehead, "well.. I'm only yours, from normal you to you fully in control. But not to some beast that thinks it claims me."
