Once Upon A Time and Lara

Sam's face scrunched up in pain. "I-I'm trying..." She groaned. "I c-can't do it...."

"Take deep breaths"

Sam took two deep breaths before she winced again, pulling herself up into a sitting position and groaning before falling back against the stone, not even noticing how hard the floor was. She was panting.

Calla was still trembling. She didn't wake up. Tears came down her eyes as she was still in some pain. She couldn't move. She didnt know what was happening or what had happen. The last thing she remember was busting James out the it was a blur.

Sam shook her head, her eyes closed as she scrunched up her face again. "I can't do this!" She moaned, she was already in pain and the contractions hadn't even started yet.

"You'll be fine. James will be here soon"

Sam winced. "I-I don't think I can." She muttered. She didn't really care about them helping her at that moment, she was in too much pain to care about anything.
James nodded. "Danny please help her with that." He said before turning back to Sam. "Try to regulate your breathing. It will be over in a little while, I promise." he said gently. "I've seen people go through this thousands of times before. You'll be alright."
Sam nodded weakly, relaxing against the wall. The contractions were about to start, and she could feel herself tensing up.


The first contraction hit, and Sam gripped Danny's hand, her head raising off the wall as she cried out, her face scrunched in pain. She relaxed again as it left, tensing for the next one. She shook her head, "i can't do this..." She muttered.


Sam nodded weakly, trying to believe him. She felt so helpless, as she couldn't do anything about what was happening, she just had to sit back as another contraction rocked her body. She winced, biting her lip to try and keep quiet. She squeezed Danny's hand, her hairline was dark now from sweat. Before she could recover from the last contraction, another one came fast and hard. Sam felt the baby shift and she cried out, turning her head to the side. "Am I dying?" She asked weakly.


"That. Is not true." Sam muttered, wincing again.
James shrugged, "Just something I heard."
The baby shifted inside her and started to push out. Sam screamed in pain, gripping Danny's hand harder than she meant to, "Oh God mercy!" She groaned. "It's too big!"
"Push, Sam." James said encouragingly.


The contractions were coming fast and hard as the baby started to move out. It was coming out the right way, and moving smoothly, so it didn't look like there would be any complications. Sam jerked upright, groaning and pushing at the same time. She had tears of frustration and pain in her eyes.
James nodded. "You got it. It's coming. Keep going Sam, you're almost there."


James quickly got onto the bed, moving behind her and positioning himself so that he could grab the baby.
Sam pushed hard once more and felt the thing slide the rest of the way out.
James quickly picked up the child, cutting the cord and wrapping it up.
It was wailing bloody murder, but Sam smiled weakly. She was trembling and felt weak and exhausted, but she had survived. Besides for feeling torn, she was ok. She leaned her head back against the wall, breathing deeply to try and calm down. "I did it." She whispered.

Calla started having nightmare about being locked up. She screamed and started to cry.

James shrugged, "Guess you have to work that out with Persephone." he said. He heard Calla scream and he frowned a little. "I have to go." He said, handing Danny the baby gently, who had fallen asleep. "You might want to wash that thing." He said, before leaving the room and running to Calla.
He crawled onto the bed beside her and gently brushed her cheek with the back of his hand, "Wake up baby." He said softly, "It's just a dream."

She opened her eyes. "I'm scared." She whispered."I don't remember what happened after I got you out." She was still trembling from the nightmare of being in that cage. "The demon Princess stabbed me. She put darkness of drain my power." She was crying.

"Well, I went back to hell, Danny disappeared, you went crazy and tried to trap everyone in a box, Sam went into labor, you figured out it was just some creep using our fears, I took the darkness out of you, and Sam had a baby." he said, summing everything up. He picked her up gently and pulled her into his lap, holding her against him.

Danny knees were shaking. He felt like he was going to collapse.

Sam still didn't wake up. Since she was a hybrid, her power was not as tempting as Danny's was, so she wasn't getting drained... yet. She stayed asleep, blissfully unaware of what was going on.

"Sam" he gasped for air"Wake up I need your help"

Sam's eyes snapped open and she stared at him in worry, not understanding what was going on. "Are you alright? What's wrong?"

"The baby is draining me" he whispered before passing out.

Sam's eyes bulged. "What!?" She immediately put a magic inhibiting spell around the baby so that it would not be able to do magic, and it would not be able to take anyone else's. She gave Danny some of the little energy she had left. "Are you ok?" She asked weakly.

Danny opened his eyes. "Princess?"

Sam nodded, "Hi. Are you ok now?"

"I've been better. That baby was taking my power and I think it likes Callas too. She's struggling won't James right now whispering."

Sam nodded. "I did put one on."
James put another one over top, to cover up any holes that may be in Sam's spell. "Hurry up and find Persephone and get rid of that thing!" He said, leaving again.

"What was that all about?"

Fine.
No you're not, you don't sound fine.
I'm fine!
It's cause you couldn't help Calla, isn't it?
......
I thought so. You know, just because it didn't work, doesn't mean you're a failure, you don't have to beat yourself up about it.
I don't want your advice Sam.
Yeah, but you need it.
James sighed. Ok, yeah, I'm frustrated with myself. Can you please just give that baby back now?
Ok, I'll see what I can do. Sam looked up at Danny. "Do you know of a way we can give the baby back?" She asked. "James is upset because he can't help Calla."

"Shouldn't we check on her. I mean it can't be good that her screams stopped?"

James sat down and wrapped his wings around himself, raking his hands through his hair. He hadn't been able to help Calla. He had always been able to save her before, why couldn't he now? Was he getting weaker?

Her body reacted to the kicks. She just stared. Heart broken that James didn't come. "All that's too bad I guess it was never meant to be" she said laughing. "You heart broken. Get over him. He was mine in the beginning and mine in the end"

James frowned, maybe he was in fact getting weaker. He closed his eyes, searching for his core. It's once steady glow, was flickering. Jame's eyes widened. "I'm dying?" He whispered. "But that's not possible..."

James eyes widened even more. He leaped into the air, pumping his wings and flying as fast as he could towards Danny's thought trail. Halfway there, it felt like he had gotten heavier. He suddenly couldn't keep himself up anymore. He fell from the sky, crashing through the trees and onto the ground.
He didn't get up again. His core was flickering very softly. It flashed once, twice, and died.

Calla started to gasp for air. Her stomach was bleeding but she was alive.

James, however, was not alive. His core had gone out completely. He was no longer there.

"There has to be something we can do?"

James' body was already growing cold, as it no longer had it's core to heat it.

He nodded his head starting to pour light into him.

Sam watched, wishing she could help in some way, but she knew she couldn't as she was a hybrid.

He pour more energy into him

James core started up again, but it was weak, and the light was not constant. His body started to grow warmer, but he had no where near to enough energy to wake up yet.

Sam's head was bleeding where she had hit the ground. She lay there, motionless except for her shallow breathing.
"James will help as soon as he is done whit Call just breathe"
