"What do you do with this thing!" A member said as he looked at the diaper in his hands.
Meanwhile Silver laying there whining as he felt the discomfort of the soiled diaper he was wearing.
"I don't know, I'm still trying to figure out why this one won't stop crying!"
A few minutes after Delilah had dropped off the twins to the men Ame had started wailing and didn't stop. He had tried everything feeding her, rocking her, he checked her diaper, making silly faces, etc. but nothing worked.
It was then Delilah walked into the room and rolled her eyes at the incompetence of these fools.
"Madam Delilah!" Both the men yelled shocked as they kneeled to her.
"What are you two imbeciles doing?" Delilah said as she rubbed her brow in frustration.
"I'm sorry madam but we don't know what we are doing!" The man trying to calm Ame down said.
"I don't even know the first thing about babies." The man trying to change Silver, who then began crying from discomfort, said.
"Ughhh do I have to do everything myself!"
Delilah then went over to the man with Silver and changed and cleaned him effortlessly. The man next to her jaw dropped from what he saw before him. Delilah then went over to the man with Ame. She took her into her arms and began to jostle her a bit, then she put her free hand in front of her and made snow.
Ame finally started to stop crying as she became mesmerized by the snow. She then started to giggle and grab for the falling snow above her.
"How did you do that?"
"I grew up in an orphanage and when I got older I had to learn how to take care of the others children. However getting this one to stop crying I just about froze her when she laughed at the snow I was producing. My guess it's something her father did thus the reason it calms her."
It was then Delilah went over and took Silver in her other arm knowing that twins enjoy being close to one another. She then proceeded to rock both of them resulting in the two finally falling asleep. Both twins were set in the cribs in the room and all the people in the room left.
Both the men bowed out of thankfulness and turned around to leave.
Delilah did the same and as she did she began to think about her past. She had grown up in an orphanage and never knowing her parents. It wasn't that bad but she was always rather lonely. However her life made a turn for the worst when she discovered her immense power.
The village she had grown up in had suffered a lot of damage and hurt from wizards so magic was not received well. She was outcast from her village as soon as she was seen using magic especially the type she had. They had feared that she would freeze their crops, cut of their supplies, or lock them in an eternal winter.
At the time she was mad and did all those things for revenge. She ended up finishing them by making them a glacier which will be there for some time. After she did that she had found she actually enjoyed doing these things and after Avatar had found her found herself admiring all Zeref ever did. Who knew one singular event could bring out an believably dark side of her.
Meanwhile Juvia and Gray continued through the forest towards Avatar and they were about half way. It was very late and both were exhausted so it time to make camp.
They had brought two sleeping mats with them and a large blanket to sleep with seeing as that they slept together there wasn't much they needed.
After they cooked some fish, they caught in the nearby lake, Juvia put out the fire and the couple got under their blanket. Gray immediately drew Juvia in close and spooned her. Juvia smiled for it always made her happy to be close to Gray. Plus it was quite comfortable since unconsciously Gray regulated their temperature with his powers.
Quickly the two were fast asleep though that didn't last long for soon their inner fears and warriors took over their thoughts.
Gray found himself in the same apocalyptic area everything still cold and flames everywhere. He looked around and saw the same exact woman in front of him. Only this time he knew exactly who she was.
"Alright Delilah I'm ready to face you!" Gray shouted at the shadowy figure in front of him.
"Fine then but it won't do you any good all those you love are gone."
"I'll show you!" Gray yelled as he charged for Delilah.
Suddenly Gray was surrounded by flames and he began to truly feel the heat. He tried to use his magic to put it out but he couldn't seem to even produce a cold draft. It was the flames started coming closer and Gray had to start crouching to avoid being burned. As he got lower he saw Delilah smile wickedly knowing he would perish. After what felt like hours to him he suddenly heard screaming.
Juvia looked around she was in a beautiful sun lit field when suddenly she heard baby's giggling. She looked at her feet to find Ame and Silver reaching up for her. Juvia felt happiness fill her as she quickly picked the twins. She proceeded to kiss both of them causing the twins to go into full out laughing. She then began to squeeze them in large hug only to suddenly feel her arms empty. She looked down and saw they weren't there causing her to look frantically.
"Looking for these?"
Juvia looked up and saw Delilah with both the twins crying for their mother.
"You give them back!"
"Oh I believe that these are mine now."
Delilah then turned around and started to turn around.
"No! You come back here!"
Juvia attempted to run but found herself stuck. She looked down and saw that her legs were in an ice block up to her knees. She struggled to get out as she tried to go after her crying children. But it was no use and worst of all the ice started to travel up her. Juvia screened as she was once again frozen now unable to tell what was real and what wasn't.
Juvia woke up suddenly screaming her head off covering it with her hands. She tried to discern what was real and what wasn't but nothing seemed to make sense.
It was then Gray woke up wondering what was going on and then he noticed Juvia.
"Juvia!" Gray said as he quickly wrapped his arms around her.
She tried to wrestle out of what was holding her thinking the ice was freezing her again.
"Juvia shhhhh please calm down shhhhh it's not real you're ok." Gray said soothingly.
Juvia finally started to calm as what was real and what wasn't finally started to make sense again. She was still shaking but was more calm now.
"Juvia are you ok?"
"No they were with me then they were gone and I was frozen over. Now their gone forever I'll never see them again."
Juvia was sobbing and she could no longer control herself.
"Juvia their gone but not forever we are going to get them back."
Gray rubbed Juvia's back as she clung to him tightly.
"Believe me I know what you're feeling I've gotten these types of dreams for as long as I can remember. But we have each other so it makes it easier."
"Gray what are we going to do I mean how do we know they'll still be ok by the time we get to them?"
"We just have to have faith but we will find them I promise you. Do you want me to stage awake until you're asleep?"
Juvia nodded vigorously.
Gray sat there until Juvia at last was asleep queuing him to at last lay down. He held ont her tight for he was feeling all the same things and needed her just as much as she needed him. After a few minutes both were asleep both now even more determined to get their children back.
