Eva was never one to censor her swearing, especially now of all times. "You fuckin' son of a bitch!!" she shrieked out in the ambulance. "The Hell did you do ta me dammit?!!" All of these phrases, of course, were aimed at her newly wedded husband, Aiden.
The Tora thought she could handle the pain of childbirth, but was sadly mistaken when her water broke not too long ago. "God DAMMIT!!" she screamed again. Why on earth was this so damn PAINFUL?! WHY?!?
"Ma'am! You need to calm down and breathe!" pleaded a medic that was also standing at her side.
"SCREW YOU!!" the blond snapped back. How did he expect her to calm down?! Another scream escaped her mouth no matter how hard she tried to hold it back. After this she'd certainly have a new found respect for her mother and all the times she went through this.

Aiden's hand was well on its way to being broken as the contractions started up. Thank god the hospital was so close by car, he had maybe five minutes left in which his new wife could shatter his hand. He just hoped the pain was a little much for her to summon up the energy to fully break it. He needed his hands intact. How else was he supposed to with the fights he needed to win to keep money coming in? It was good money, albeit bloody as hell, and with the kid they'd need every cent of it.
"Eva," He said as the blond disregarded the medic's advice. "for god's sake calm down." His voice was surprisingly level for having his fingers snapped. Odd were good it would just infuriate the Tora more. "It's going to get much worse, so save your breath." He was almost certain he had done more research on this topic than the blond (though considering he had been able to actually sit at a computer without the desk hitting his stomach, there was a good reason for it) and he knew not to panic. Or, rather, he knew not to SHOW he was panicking.

Eva's eyes instantly snapped over at Aiden after his comment. "Do YOU wanna have this thing?!!" she asked him, squeezing his hand even tighter as the contractions continued. What drove her even more mad was his tone, he was calm! He WAS FUCKING CALM DAMMIT!! The bastard had no clue what she was going through right at that moment, and that just pissed her off even more!
After what seemed like forever the ambulance finally reached the hospital and Eva was rushed in. In no time she was in a room and a doctor and nurse hurried to get everything together that they would need for the delivery. It was around this time that she blond actually tried to take the advice given to her and tried more breathing and less screaming and hollering. She needed to keep at least a LITTLE of her sanity.

The Ookami winced, almost positive that his hand was at least cracked, though probably not broken, by this point. Jesus H Christ was Eva strong... It wasn't long before Eva was being bundled into the hospital as quick as the cart could carry her, and Aiden followed close, though he didn't make the mistake of offering her his hand again. Calm or not, he wasn't willing to risk his breadwinning skills again just yet. He Stayed right next to her, even as a feeling of dread crept through his mind.
'This is it,' It seemed to say. 'This is where she dies.'
But she wouldn't. He KNEW Eva wouldn't die, she was too tough and stubborn to up and die over something like this.
'But this is where she ALWAYS dies...' The tiny voice, one he hadn't heard since Eva gave him his first lesson in fighting, brushed through his mind. It sounded no more sane than last time, but now that he wasn't raging, there wasn't much to block it out. 'She'll get ripped open, and be screaming, and doused in the red and die and leave you alone alone alone. Just like it always is.'
He shook his head to try and get rid of it and be able to focus his attention on Eva, god knew she needed it.

There was no way Eva had noticed Aiden's slight weirdness as they entered the hospital, she was too focused on other stuff. She tried to breathe and relax as much as she could, but dammit this hurt so much! She wanted to cry, for all she knew she probably was crying. She couldn't think of that right now though. The baby. That's all that mattered. She had to make sure this went as smoothly as possible, and screaming certainly wasn't going to help that. She had to make sure her little girl was okay, she had to concentrate.
Even with as much as it hurt, Eva refused the painkillers from the doctors. "H-HELL no!! I-I'll be fine!" It hurt like Hell and she felt like she was dying practically, but there was no way they were drugging her for this. She could pull through, just a little longer...

Hi had just gotten a call from some frantic nurse who didn't know how to deliver a baby. Now that she thought about, Hi had only delivered a baby three times. The first two times were natural births and the last time was a c-section.
Hi raced down the hall to find a couple, the woman clearly going into labor. Hi grabbed the nearest wheel chair and sat the woman down in the chair, she spoke quickly but clearly as she wheeled her to an operating room, "Hello, I'm Doctor Hana and I'll be delivering your baby. Leave everything to me, I promise everything will be fine."
Hi raced across the tile floor, not waiting for anyone to help her. The woman, who was probably in to much pain to really care about anything at this point, was defiantly in labor. Hi quickly and efficiently, closed the door and spoke, "I need to remove your clothes and get you on the bed, then I have to see how much your dilating. All right?"
Hi didn't really wait for an answer, but instead managed to stip the woman of her clothes and managed to haul her onto the bed. Even with the baby, the girl didn't weight much. Hi covered the woman's lower half with a blanket and looked underneath, five centimeters.
Hi looked over the blanket, grabbing gloves and a mask, covering her hands and face. She then put on a blue robe and had one of the nurses who had been following her tie back her hair and put it in a hair net. Hi spoke loudly and carefully, "You need to push, miss. Do your best. If you need the drugs just tell me, it won't do any harm to your child if you take them." Hi looked intently at her patient.

Aiden followed the new doctor and his new wife with admirable tenacity through the ebb and flow of nurses, doctors, and patients. It seemed like a busy evening at the hospital... He knew he was allowed to be with Eva during the birth and damn if he would lose them. Luckily his hand had found its way back into Eva's grasp, so it was hard to get pulled away by the crowd.
His fingers twitched in the hold, readying himself for more pain as the birth began...

Eva hardly noticed the details around her and barely caught what the doctor had said. She didn't care that it wouldn't hurt the baby if she took the drugs or not, she just really didn't want to take them, she could toughen through this!
The blond took a deep breath and held onto her husband's hand, quickly followed by a VERY loud yell as she tried to push.

Hi tensed, looking underneath the blanket, she wasn't dilating. This wasn't good. It was better to be safe then sorry so she said to the woman, "One more time, if you can't, don't be scared, everything will be fine." If this didn't work, a c-section would be their only option. C-sections weren't hard, not to mention they weren't dangerous to the child or mother, not anymore, anyway.
Hi looked at the woman, "On the count of three, deep breath. One... Two... Three!"

Eva took another deep breath and pushed again. She hoped nothing was wrong with her baby. She REALLY hoped nothing was wrong. She couldn't think about that, not right now. The Tora wanted this to go as smooth as possible, she just wanted her baby safe.

They'll cut her open the voice chirped, seeming too-happy and too-childish in one fell, creepy swoop. He attempted to ignore it and squeezed Eva's hand back in what he hoped was a reassuring manner and brushed some sweaty hair out of her face. This really had to hurt... "Everything's fine, Ev." He consoled. To be fair, he was getting a little scared himself. And that voice wasn't helping. It just sounded... unstable. Horribly horribly unstable. He tried his best to keep the worst of the worry off of his face.
Just like momma it persisted. All torn up and dead like momma.
He didn't even know his mother, the voice was just stupid...
But you DO know~! It tried again. You suspected and thought and thought and they lied~ Because you KNOW she's dead~!
Aiden tried his absolute hardest to push away the nagging voice and focus on his wife. She needed him more than he needed answers right now, he could ask around later.
He doubted he'd get honest answers though...

Hi had suspected that it was to be like this, she was dilating but the baby wasn't responding. "Miss," She said sternly, "I'm going to need to preform a c-section. The baby isn't coming and it's hard to tell why." Then she said quickly and calmly, "But everything will be fine, your baby will be fine." Her voice was calm and smooth, a useful effect on some people.
Hi addressed the husband, "Sir, I suggest to leave, unless you don't mind see some blood. C-sections are quick and easy to perform. She will be fine and so will your baby." She smiled under her face mask, her eyes crinkling, "I promise." She grabbed what she needed quickly, injecting a clear liquid into the woman's side, explaining as she went. "Miss, this is morphine for the surgery. And this..." She said, grabbing a mask attached to a long tube, "Is what I'm giving you so you don't pay attention to what's going on. It's going to make you kind of sleepy, but you won't realize your have surgery."
She gently held the mask to the woman's face, "Take a deep breath, and you'll see your baby soon. In and out... nice and slow." Her voice was calm and soothing, much like a mother tell a bedtime story to her child.

Eva was starting to panic a little despite the doctor's assurance that everything would be alright. What was wrong? Why wasn't her baby coming out? Was she going to be alright? She tried to keep calm, taking the doctor's advice and breathed into the mask as calmly as she should. She was told she'd see her baby soon, that was what she had to look forward to.
The blond looked up at Aiden, an obvious look of worry clear in her blue eyes. She gave his hand one tight squeeze before she felt herself drifting off.

Aiden stroked his thumb over the back of Eva's hand, an attempt to calm the both of them down, really. "I can deal with blood." He replied to the doctor, voice gruff and throat tight from nerves. Her voice was helping, but HIS voice wasn't. Luckily it seemed to have quieted for the moment, though he felt certain it was giggling to itself in the recesses of his mind.

Hi nodded at the young man, seeing the woman drift off, Hi spoke to the nurse, "Get the equipment ready." The young woman nodded and replied,
"Yes ma'am." And began her work. Hi went to the sink and scrubbed her arms with soap that stung, then reapplied a new pair of gloves. The nurse rushed to her with everything Hi would need. The nurse then made her way to the sink as well and prepared herself. Hi took the scalpel and spoke, "I'll begin now."
She pushed up the medical dress and the blanket before was covered with a plastic one. This left a whole for the operation. Hi cut into the lower part of the bulge, just between the woman's hip bones. Of course, she wouldn't feel anything because of the morphine. She didn't cut too deep, but deep enough. Some blood spilled but not much. Hi reached in the cut and said to the nurse, "Help me once I have a grip."
The nodded, "Yes ma'am." She replied. Hi grabbed the baby's foot, instead of the head. No wonder the baby wasn't coming, it was upside down. Hi gently grabbed the baby's foot and pulled it out a little. Then, with her free hand, she grabbed under the back and pulled the baby out. Hi smiled as the baby began to cry a little.
Hi smiled and said, "It's a girl! Congratulations!" She handed the nurse the little girl and she wrapped her in a nice pink cloth, handing her to the father. Hi spoke as she grabbed stitches and her other tools, "Your wife will be awake in a few minutes." She began to sew up the wound and once she was done she disinfected it and placed gauze over it. Hi made the woman more comfortable removing anything with blood on it and take the mask off the young lady.
She then said as she cleaned, "A nurse will be by to clean your little girl up and to make sure she's fine." There was another shrill cry, Hi smiled, "Although I think she has a nice pair of lungs. Congratulations again. I'll be back in a hour or two." Hi walked out of the room, happy with the results.
