it had been something she'd been meaning to get around to for a while, for certain, but with so many new members pouring in it was easy to forget that a pack needed more than just individuals. having been mercilessly grounded to the territory by her own companion and sense, the lady had been riddled with far too much time to think, and it got to the point where she had to get out, had to breathe different air and satiate the wanderlust that haunted her mind and infected her very soul.

hormones had been tearing her body and her mood asunder and she flaunted quite the baby bump. pregnancy was an absolute wonder to mercury, and as they walked (slowly, mind you, for the tasmanian devil wouldn't allow for anything else and would have walked for her if it were possible. a trip across most of alacritia this late in her nativity had been a concept he loathed, but mercury was far too familiar with her stubbornness and knew it had to be done now. something had been on the woman's mind and he couldn't figure it out for the life of him, and it nearly scared him.

the trip had gone without casualty, though there had been a few scares along the way and she'd been forced to stop and rest for an hour or so. they'd been forced around the desert, which in turn forced them to cross the river, but luckily she floated with particular ease, and just as luckily winter and the desert to the north of it had left it with many a low spot to meander across. after what seemed like forever they neared what she believed to be the border.

pain struck her harshly in her side and she gave a groan, sinking slowly to the ground and pressing her forehead against the dirt. her claws scored the grass and her abdomen felt as if it were being torn into pieces. mercury kept his calm and showered her features with comforting licks, small ears pinned backwards and expression deeply concerned, not aware of the severity of this particular spasm.

another moan of pain left her, louder this time, and she opened her lips to speak. "worse this time," she managed. "we're close; call." he blinked at her for a second and then picked up on her meaning, as it was nearly difficult to understand her through her grunts. without hesitation he nosed her ears down to urge her to pin them against her head, and once she'd done so to at least try and protect her audits he let out a horrendous call--the inhuman, far-from-lupine call of a tasmanian devil, but something about it was recognizable, in a way, and hopefully the absolutely horrifying nature of the scream would bring someone, anyone, to their aid.

this was a bad idea, the female thought, but through her pain felt some sort of relief that she was doing this now. to protect her, to protect mercury, to protect marvel, and the pack... and most of all, her pups.
