"Marika, have a good look at them, you know these two very well" Richard said with a soothing voice and stroking her hair.
"They only wear the coat's so to wake you up, because you're a sleepy head and you need to take the medicine to get detoxified."
Marika looked over Richard shoulder at the two who were standing in the door way and she calmed down.
'Can you please take off those smelly coats?, you can raise the dead with that smell!'
Genus saw she was still on alert, but calm enough to approach. He told Azurite not to remove the coat but approach her slow but he need to be warry because she was still on high alert.
Azurite did what Genus said, half way Azurite stopped. Marika was shaking and Richard noticed so he hold her tight and looked back. He saw Azurite standing still and took two steps back and Marika stopped shaking. The Azurite stood still for a moment and again slowly started to walk over but after he took two steps she started to shake again.
He looked at Marika and thought, "Well consider the state she was in before its progress." He took of his coat and threw it to Genus. He walk over at a normal walking speed and Marika was just fine she didn't shack and her guard was lowered a lot.
Azurite was standing in front of Richard and Marika.
"Teacher here is your medicine, and I need to check your wound."
Marika looked at Azurite and took the medicine from him. 'You still have a smell on you. But it's tolerable.' she said with a smile.
Richard asked Marika "Can I let go of you?"
Marika nodded 'But keep the other one away from me.'
Richard looked at Marika with a shocked look on his face, he found her word usage strange.
"What is the name of the man in the door way?"
'I don't know, he hasn't introduced himself.'
Now even Azurite and Genus looked shocked.
"And what about the boy in front of you?"
'What's wrong with you Richard? That's Azurite and he wants to become a doctor so he can cure his sister Ellie. And he is currently studying herbs at aunty Lia's shop.'
Richard still felt something wasn't right so he kept asking her questions.
"How many brothers do you have and what are their names?"
'One, and his name is Luca.'
"How many adoptive children do we have?"
'Five, three sons and two daughters, their names are Solis, Caelum, Khai, Luna and Regina.'
'But why are you asking me this?'
"I have 3 more questions, Do you have a familiar?
'Yes and his name is Chase.'
"Do you have an adoptive father?"
Marika shook her head 'No, my birth parent's died protecting me, and my aunt and uncle who raised me died because of me.'
"Last question, what am I to you?"
'Hey that is more than three.'
"Will you please answer the bonus question?" Richard said with a smile.
Marika smiled back 'You are my husband, well were not married or engaged I consider you already my husband.'
"Alright… I let Azurite check and treat your wounds and after that you take a rest. We will go back later today."
'Oké I'll take a short nap, I still need to bring back Agrius and Ferox.'
"We will do that tomorrow."
'But… I need to go to village to get some herbs and after that I was planning to bring Agrius and Ferox home. It need to be today.'
"Well If you get an all clear we go today, if not than tomorrow."
'Alright' as Marika sighed.
"Marika…" Azurite wanted to ask her something but he decided not to ask.
Marika looked at him 'What's wrong?'
"It's nothing, now let me see your wound."
Marika lifted her shirt, the medicine seem to work the bleeding has stopped and her wound was already starting to close up.
"Uhm Marika, weren't your healing powers supposed to be sealed?"
'Ahh well about that…. It seems that my body absorbs the seal so it can't be sealed anymore.'
"Wouldn't that be bad for your awakening?"
Marika nodded and showed a sad smile 'But there is nothing I can do about it. Unless I can't get to the village and visit Saxeus shop. There should exist a gem stone that can suppress one's ability's. And there are also herb's in the forest there with suppressing properties. But they will only bloom in a specific time frame and that's today, I can't wait another 4 years.'
"Well I don't see any problem for you not to go, but you're not allowed to go alone. If you do and get hurt again I ask Richard to tie you up and lock you in your room till I declare a clean bill of health!"
'Yes doctor!'
Marika and Azurite started to laugh.
"Your all patched up, now get some sleep and I'll let Richard wake you in two hours."
Marika nodded an lied down and closed her eyes.
Azurite left the room and joined Richard and Genus in the next room Richard and Genus were talking about Marika's current state of mind.
Richard asked "How is she?"
"Her wound is almost closed up and it seems that the antidote is working."
"Is her healing ability that is doing that job? "Genus asked.
Azurite nodded "Although it's not at the speed it should be she should be healed up in two hours. And to prevent she will fall asleep after healing I let her sleep while her healing ability is healing her."
"But what were all those questions back there?"
Richard started to explain she either had forgotten people or the names weren't correct.
"For example her familiar is the spirit of her old pet cat named Chase… but his new name is Agito."
"Well it could be a side effect of the poison, I mean she had lost a lot of blood and it's amazing she was still standing for that amount of time before she collapsed." Genus said.
"We have to just wait and see, maybe after some rest she will be back to normal" Azurite said.
Richard then asked "Did she by chance tell you why she needed to go to the village today?"
"Yes it's because she need something from Saxeus shop and she needs to go to the forest for a particular herb."
"I told her she could go since she will be fine after her rest, but she is not to go alone. And if she did and get hurt again, you are allowed to tie her up and lock her up till I declare her to be in good health again."
"But I was planning on going with her to the forest to find the herb she is looking for, and I think It's good you come along if something happens." Azurite said to Richard.
Richard laughed "Aren't you a strict doctor to be!"
"Well I'm strict because she has a habit of getting injured even if she fallow's the doctor's advice. And her lack of relaying on others… Make's her more pruned to get injured. "
Two hours had passed an Richard went in to the room to wake up Marika.
"Sweetie… wake up it's time to go."
Marika slowly opened her eyes, 'Is it already time? I still feel a bit sleepy.'
"Well that's because a certain someone rushed out of the mansion in the dead of night and got in to a fight and poison."
Marika's eyes flew open and sat up 'Khai!, Regina!, Are they alright? Where are they?'
"Their fine and at the mansion."
'That's a relieve.'
"According to Azurite you are allowed to go to village today and pick some herbs in the forest, but you need to have someone with you. So I and Azurite will accompany you."
Marika nodded 'By the way, I was surprised to see Azu… where is that darned white coat?'
"He is here, but you didn't seem to recognize him 2 hours ago."
Marika looked at Richard with a question on her face.
"It also seemed you had forgotten people, or had their names wrong, so I'm going to ask you a few questions and determine if it was only a temporary side effect."
'Alright.'
"How many brothers do you have and what are their names?"
'Three, Dante, Kevin and Luca.'
"Do you have an adoptive father?"
'Yes, that is Derick'
"Do you have a familiar?"
'Yes and his name is Agito'
"Last question, What am I to you?"
Marika pounced at Richard and hugged him 'Your my loving husband' and she kissed him.
"Now change your clothes and wash up so we can go to the village and bring Agrius and Ferox home."
Marika nodded and went in to the bath room. Richard left the room and told that Marika seemed to be back to normal and also answered the questions right this time.
Marika was done and came in to the room, Azurite smiled "Did you have a good sleep? Are you still feeling tired?"
'I feel a little tired but not sleepy, like I normally feel when I'm healed.'
"Well that's because I made you sleep while your healing ability was healing you."
Marika looked at Genus 'Would you please get rid of your stinking coat, you white coat. You can raise the dead with that smell… and it's making me sick.'
Genus looked at Marika "No I won't.. This is your punishment for forgetting me." He said with a teasing grind on his face.
Marika sighed a sigh 'Well your place is a mess and it smells… go find yourself a women to help clean up this place.' She said with a teasing grind on her face.
And they both started to laugh.
'When I'm done with my errands I send our student over and give you some herb and a recipe for you to make.'
"Alright… and you should eat a lot of meat today since you anemic."
'Ohh.. than you should eat some more fruit and vegetables for the upcoming week, your complex looks horrible.'
And they started to laugh again.
Azurite and Richard looked at each other
"Even thought they had a bad meeting the first time…" Richard said.
"…These two are the best of friends now." Azurite answered.
"Marika if you want to shop and pick herb's we need to go now." Richard said.
'Sorry white coat got to go now… See you not soon!'
Genus laughed "If it's you… then you're not soon will be in 3 days!"
'Will see' as Marika went out the door.
When Marika was looking around, she noticed her surroundings were unfamiliar. But unmistakably she knew she was at a castle and from the distance of the castle and her current position she knew she was in the fare back of the castle grounds
'Where the hell am I!?' Marika shouted in surprise.
Richard walked up to Marika and places his arm around her waist and placed his head on her shoulder and whispered "Welcome to The Moon Castle."
Marika was stunned 'But… how… when…'
"Well… That's a secret." Richard said with a teasing tone.
"Now let's go to Faber Village, you had some errands to run." A sudden voice spoke from behind.
It was William and he walked over to the two of them.
"So how did you get hurt this time, for you to come to this place?"
Marika looked at William and smiled 'Oh nothing much, I had to fight 60 vampires at a quarter of my strength and I got stabbed by a knife that had poison on it.'
"It was 58 vampires, I killed one, and one survivor" Richard said.
'Ohh, now you mention it, there was indeed on who didn't attack me so I let him be. But he was probably scared stiff by me.' Marika laughed
"That's because you still emit a strong killing intent, but he also wanted to meet with you and talk to you. So I send him to the mansion."
Marika frond at Richard 'You better pray he won't hurt my baby's or else not only him but you will also incur my wrath.'
'Oh and another thing, if you hear some loud noises coming from the north of the mansion pay no mind to it' Marika said happily.
'Shall we go?'
Azurite came out of Genus house and joined the rest. William opened a portal to the mansion fist where Marika picked up Agrius and Ferox. After that William opened a portal to Faber Village.
As Marika, Richard and Azurite arrived they were met with Ellie, and her brothers.
"Sis!" Luca ran up to Marika and looked at her with an slightly angered expression.
"What the hell sis? I finally get reunited with you and the first thing you do is run off and getting yourself almost killed."
Luca hugged Marika and started to cry, "Don't do that ever again."
Marika patted Luca on his back 'Alright I promise.'
Luca then looked at Richard "If she does this again please tie her up and lock every door and windows and but bares in front of the windows."
Richard laughed "Sure thing, I was thinking the same thing… she is way too reckless in her current state."
Luca wiped away his tears and then said, "Oh yeh I spoke to Solis and Caelum, they have a necklace from the Phoenix mountain that can help suppress you healing ability and Saxeus also had a few of those stones stored plus he also made a few absorption stones for us to use. And with that in place your surviving chances are now roughly around 55%
'I'll take that, I will make some medicine later that increases my survival rate to 100% , so we can start this in 2 days.'
Marika looked at Richard and asked, 'When is that prick coming?'
Richard answered her question "He will be at the mansion at the end of next week."
'Alright.'
'Luca since you already have arranged the stones, you can go back to the mansion and say hello to your nephew and niece.'
'I'll be going to pick some herb' in the forest with my 4 body guards.'
Luca nodded "Don't get hurt again sis or there will be hell to pay"
'Uhwa my little brother is scary' as Marika laughed.
As Marika and the others had entered the forest she was met with Consilium and
Catlaster and the rest of the pack. She told Agrius and Ferox to join them.
'I hope you two have learned a great deal about what it means to listen to the leader and not to be so willful. You both did a good job to fallow my word and protecting the things that are precious to me.
Marika gave them both a hug 'Now join the pack and live a free life.'
Both Argius and Ferox wimped a bid. Even though Marika is the Alpha of the pack and did care about them but she didn't attach herself to them and had drawn a firm line as to say you belong to nature and I'm only here to teach you for a little while, they felt like their big sister was leaving them.
"We don't want to go back." Ferox said.
"We want to stay with you sister!" Agrius fallowed up.
Marika looked at the both of them. 'You two… You know I respect the laws of nature and that all animal's and creatures should live in their respective place in the world. You guys belong here in the pack.'
"Then can we stay with you until the baby dragon's go back to their home?" Agrius asked
"We will guard them and bring them home one that day!" Ferox said.
Marika sighed a bit and looked at Consilium and Catlaster.
"Well we see no problem in that, but you two will have to come back at some point. Like she said you guys belong here with us in the wild, never forget that." Catlaster turned around and the rest of the pack fallowed him back in to the forest.
Consilium the old wolf spoke to Marika for a bit. "I'll join them in their journey when that day come's and I will stay with the hatch-ling's till my last breath."
'Are you going to leave the pack?'
Consilium nodded "It's about time for this old wolf to leave and let the young take care of rest. This is a tradition of all the wolf clan's"
Marika hugged Consilium and said 'The day you breath you last breath please let me know so I can say goodbye and if you're in pain I'll ease it for you so your passing will be less painful.'
Consilium looked at Marika "You are such a wonderful and kind child, I promise."
Consilium turned around and said, take care of those two youngsters, although they are still a bit willful you thought them well."
Marika the turned around and walked over to the others.
'Well It seems you two are staying a little longer, but I mean what I say and you better keep in mind the words of Catlaster, when the day comes for Khai and Regina to go home you two also go back home to the pack.'
Ferox and Agrius waged there tail "We promise!" "We promise!"
'Now let's go I have only 3 hours left to find the herb.'
"Sister, what does it look like?" Agrius asked
"Maybe we have seen it before" Ferox fallowed.
Marika showed them a picture and said, 'This is how it looks like and it smells like a rose covered in a thin layer of honey.'
Ferox and Agrius looked at the picture and start sniffing the air.
"It's not far from here" Ferox stated
"Yes it's close, we will make it in time." Agrius fallowed up again.
"Fallow us sister" "Fallow us sister"
After an hour walk the came at the foot of a high hill. It looked very steep but it was claimable.
Marika took some rope from her bag and made a harness with a leash for Ferox and Agrius.
When she was done she wanted to put it on them but they refused and were fussy about it.
'If you don't put this one you can stay here. It's only for you own safety if you slip you won't fall down and get injured.' Marika said firmly.
They both gave in and let Marika put on their harnesses she then tied Argius to Richard waist and Ferox to her own.
She also made a safety line for Azurite and tied him both to her and Richard.
Azurite looked at Marika "Is this really necessary?"
'Yes it is! If you slip and fall from high up the hill the speed and momentum in your fall can break your bones if you hit something downhill it can even kill you.'
"Well since Marika and I are physically stronger than the 3 of you it's no problem for us if you slip and fall, we can handle the weight of you." Richard said to Azurite.
After their half an hour climb up the steep hill they arrived at the top. Marika looked around and found the herb she was looking for.
Marika untied everybody and told Richard to take a rest, because climbing up wasn't the hardest part. What would be most difficult would be going down. She casted a healing spell on everybody to heal all the bruises and cuts the manage to get during their climb.
Azurite looked at Marika and noticed she looked tired and the color in her face was a little white.
"You should also get some rest after we picked the herbs. Your color is a bit off."
'I know, I lost to much blood earlier and I'm still a bit anemic.'
As she than picked up her bag and took Azurite to the herb's. She explained to him to take only what he needed and never to be greedy about rare herbs.
She also showed him to uproot the herbs and plant them in small carry able containers. So that the herb's wouldn't parish during their journey back.
After the were done Marika stood up but then fell down, she felt very dizzy. Azurite saw she was turning whiter by the minute.
Azurite saw a small patch of blood on Marika shirt. It came from the same place where she was stabbed with a poisoned knife earlier.
"What the hell… She should have been fully healed already."
Azurite called for Richard to bring him his bag and water. Azurite called Genus and told him what he had observed and the state she was in.
Marika tried to get up a few times and said she was alright, but every time she got up she was hit by dizziness and fell back down. Azurite told her to stay put for a little so he could examine her wound.
Azurite looked at the wound but it looked like a small cut. Genus was surprised by the findings. At the same time Richard came over and gave Azurite his bag.
"What's going on? How is she?"
Azurite explained to Richard what happened and showed him her wound it doesn't make sense, even Genus can't make sense of it.
Genus then said, "Call for that blue phoenix. He should be able to see what's going on in her body.
Just as Richard wanted to call for Caelum he saw that Solis, Caelum and Luca descending down and on Luca's back there were Kevin and Dante.
"What did my stupid sister do this time to look like this?" Luca approached Marika "You promised me you would be careful this time."
Azurite shielded Marika and Dante and Kevin restrained Luca.
"She didn't do anything stupid, it's the opposite, in order for us not to fall down this hill she and Richard were our Anker's so we wouldn't fall down this steep hill. Although me and Ferox and Agrius slipped a few times it could never resulted in this because Richard most of the time reduced the force on the rope that was tight to her."
Luca started to calm down a bit.
"She still needs to be locked up when she gets home." Luca pouted a bit.
Richard showed the wound and asked Caelum to take a look what was going on beneath it.
"What the… this can't be… if this keeps up she can slip in to a coma, we need her to get back to the mansion."
Caelum looked at it and saw that the small wound was actually noting much but for some reason it was the cause for her inner energy was leaking out.
Marika was panting and tried to stay awake.
Caelum looked at Marika "Mother, your healing ability didn't fully heal your wound for some reason. And the fact you got poisoned by purple blood poison and strained yourself and got the antidote late, your body and healing ability are completely in disarray."
Genus heard everything Caelum said and told them he would meet them at the mansion.
Richard told Solis and Cealum to take Marika's and Azurite's bag's, Agrius, Dante and Kevin should ride with Luca.
"What about sister and Azurite?" Kevin asked.
Marika said to Kevin 'Don't worry… we are all leaving together.'
Richard told Azurite to keep a close eye on her condition, and if it worsen he should let him know immediately.
Azurite nodded.
Richard also transformed in to his dragon form. Marika looked up but in her hazy vision she saw Richard 4th stage, his final form.
Just like her brother Luca there stood a magnificent dragon, his color was deep Azure blue.
'My husband is so beautiful.'
Marika climbed on Richard back with his and Azurite's help. Azurite climbed also up and Ferox to a big leap and jump on Richards back.
Azurite told Marika to lean in to him so he could prevent her from fall, Ferox sat down in front of Marika so he could keep the wind from hitting her.
After just 15 minute's they arrived at the Mansion where Derick and Genus were waiting for them outside of the mansion.
With the help of her brother's she got of Richard back, but even toughed Ferox shielded her from the wind Marika was very cold to the touch, almost freezing.
Dante and Luca held her up but the noticed her legs were constantly giving a sign that they would give out.
Richard changed back and he picked her up. "Your freezing!"
Marika whispered in Richard ear, 'Bring me to the herb green house.'
Richard did not hesitated and rushed to the green house.
"Were are you going with the patient?" Genus yelled.
Derick then calmly said "Fallow me, he is taking her to the herb green house."
Before he took Genus and Azurite to the green house he gave Luca, Dante and Kevin an order to get some things from the mansion. "Go get some blanket's, bottles of water, clean cloths and towels, and take the baby dragon's with you when you come to the green house."
Derick turned around and told Genus and Azurite to fallow him
Richard entered the greenhouse with Marika in his arms and took of her cloth and his own. He lifted her up again and they both set down in the natural hot spring that was in the green house.
Marika was fuzzy about it, saying she need to get out because she felt sleepy and was not allowed to sleep in a bath.
Richard knew she was getting delirious, and soothed her. "It's oké, I'm with you so you can sleep if you want."
Marika started to calm down and fell asleep in his arms. He noticed her temperature started to get back to normal. He sighed a sigh of relieve.
When Richard looked at Marika she had changed to a 7 year old girl. And he started to laugh quietly to himself "This is going to be fun."
Richard heard Derick and the others coming in. He gesture to be quite.
Azurite silently came over and was surprised to see a 7 year old Marika, Derick and Genus fallow suit.
"Oh my, I thought she looked like an angle in her 5 year old form, but my daughter is still cute as ever no matter what age she looks like" Derick said in a low voice.
Azurite checked her temperature and said it was alright now. "She can come out any time."
Richard told Derick that the others had to be quite when they come in.
Genus looked at Marika, well she is sleeping now but I need to see her wound."
Richard carefully re-positioned Marika in his arms and pulled her up a bit.
Genus took down his glasses and looked at her wound. "Hmm this is indeed not good at all, well I need both phoenixes help to fix this. Luckily there is no poison left in her body."
Luca, Kevin, Dante, Khai and Regina all arrived at the green house, Derick warned them to be quite and only talk in a low voice or whisper.
The all came in and saw Marika sleeping. Kevin ,Dante and Khai weren't surprised that Marika had changed her appearance. Luca and Regina on the other hand were.
Luca asked, "What is going one why is she a 7 year old?"
Genus explained that it happened a few times before but she changed to a 5 year old child. "It's her body's way of dealing with heavy trauma or life treating situation."
"Also last time it took a little longer for her to change back to normal. It all depends on her mental stated."
Genus gave him a pat on the shoulder "Get used to it, your sister is a reckless, free spirited person. She will get hurt again in the future. But we have to wait and see what will happen after all her stages are complete."
Genus then walked over to Azurite. "I'm amazed how calm you were during this all."
Azurite looked at Genus and then at Marika. "While she was teaching me how to make Ellie's medicine she told me that no matter what happens never panic while making medicine. If I did it would cause more harm than good. I think those words stuck to me and I apply it to every situation I guess."
Genus nodded "She taught you the very foundation of medicine that day."
Marika slowly woke up with her hazy eyes she looked around and saw a lot of people standing around. She then looked at Richard, "Big brother when did you come to visit me?" And she hugged him.
Richard looked at Luca "Do I resemble your brother?"
Luca shook his head. "No… but now that I think about it, he would often take her for baths when she was 7 years old, because she always came home covered in mud and dirt."
Then she spotted Luca
'Luca!!!' she said energetically and had a big smile on her face.
Richard whispered something to Marika and she nodded.
She climbed out of the spring and run up to him.
'Luca also came to take a bath with big brother and me?'
Marika was pulling Luca's arm as to say he should come with her.
Luca sighed slightly and gave in to her.
Then Marika went to Kevin and Dante, and grabbed then by the hands saying they also need to come in to the bath.
She even invited Azurite and even Genus.
Genus looked at her "Do I really have to?"
Marika nodded
Then Richard said to Genus, "Just humor her, normally you don't get a chance to relax around her when she is a child."
"You're really used to this already…" Genus sighted
Genus took of his glasses and looked at her wound, it was still there but it was closing slowly and her inner energy wasn't leaking out the way it was before.
Genus patted her head "Alright little princess uncle Genus will come to."
The last person she asked to join was Derick
'Father are you coming to?'
Derick knelt down "Well I need to get some more towels and Solis and Caelum are still at the mansion. You want them to join to right?"
Marika's eyes brighten up a lot and she nodded.
"Then be a good girl and wait a few minutes"
After 10 minutes Derick arrived with Solis, Caelum, Ferox and Agrius.
Caelum, Khai, Azurite and Genus were tending to Marika wound, but Marika was being fuzzy about it. Richard and Luca stepped up to help them and after 20 minutes it was all done.
"This child is so difficult" Genus said.
Luca frond a bit "You think she is difficult to handle? Be grateful her 10 year old personality hasn't appeared."
"Why is that?" Richard asked Luca.
"She was most difficult and rebellious at that age, she never listened and if you tried to hold her down she would actually fight you to break free."
Richard laughed "Now that would be a sight to see"
After 20 minutes Marika told Richard she wanted to play with Agrius and Ferox.
Luca and Richard took her out of the spring and dried her and changed her cloth.
Everybody was staring at the 3 of them, it looked so natural how they interacted with her.
After they were done with Marika they went back in to the spring.
Khai and Regina joined Marika, Agrius and Ferox in their play session.
Luca started to ask Genus "Oh that reminds me, Dante told me that my sister can handle doctors when they wearing their coats."
"Well that's because she has a trauma. Didn't you know that?"
Luca shook his head "When I was born she was 6 years old and already lived with our grandmother. When I was 6 she returned to us, but she left again when I was 10 and she disappeared when I was 17 years old."
Genus looked at Luca, "Well from what we have been told, she met with an accident when she was 5 years old. And we later found out a doctor from our world was at that time her tending doctor and discovered her healing abilities. He held her for a week or two in the hospital and did experiments on her. Like cutting her and even attempted an autopsy on her when she was fully conscience."
Luca's face drew as white as a sheet he couldn't believe his sister went through something so horrific at that age.
Azurite was shock and speechless and looked at Richard. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"You think I would talk about it knowing Marika is nearby? And I considered her feeling's I didn't want to trigger any bad memories if she may over hear us talking."
"But let me tell you this one thing, even with the small amount of information and no details to the cause of her trauma, you still came up with a treatment plan." Richard said
"Your smart, even with small amount of information your treatments are good. Instead of agonizing about a different solution if you had all the information."
"Let me ask you Azu, would the outcome of today be different?"
Azurite looked at Marika who was playing happily.
"It would have only made a different if she was brought to us the moment she got poisoned."
"Azu, you are studying to become a doctor even under the best circumstance there could still have been side effect's to her body. So don't beat yourself up your doing a good job, even better than that guy who is your teacher. He could not even think of a treatment for Marika who is traumatized by seeing a doctor in a white coat" Richard smiled and patted his head.
Luca asked "But how did you come up with a treatment plan?"
Azurite answered his question "Well this doctor here told me what triggered her to attack doctors in the first place and she mentioned last time to. It's not so much the coat that triggers her it's the smell on the coat."
"So I thought of to let her get used to seeing doctors wearing white coats without a sent on it, the next step is a coat with the scent of herbs after that a coat with the scent of patients only and last step to combine it all together."
Luca looked at Azurite, "How old are you?" he asked
"I'm 17 years old."
"When you're done studying under him why not study under me as well?"
"Your also a doctor?"
"Yes and I have two specialties, first one is similar to you and Genus, my second is psychology. After you told me your treatment plan I was amazed you have also the potential to become a psychologist and if you combine both specialties you be the best doctor who can coop with any situation."
While the three of them were discussing medical subjects the others were watching Marika play for a few minutes.
After that they started to discuss the upcoming awakening plan of Marika. When Caelum noticed something was off with Marika he jumped out of the spring and rushed over to her.
In a mere minute Marika changed from a 7 year old to a 5 year old and stopped at the age of a 3 year old child thanks to Caelum.
Richard and Solis who were alarmed by how Caelum reacted rushed over.
"Please be calm and don't make loud noises you may scare her." Caelum said before he turned around with Marika in his arms.
As he turned around with an awkward expression on his face he showed them Marika.
Solis almost fainted and Richard looked at her and was completely shell shocked by her cuteness.
Luca also came over and saw his sister, Marika smiled at him all cutely and then said to Richard.
"If you and my sister ever have children of your own, please refrain from having a daughter."
"Why?" Richard asked him.
"You want me to die?"
Richard started to laugh and it trigger Marika also to laugh.
She gave Caelum a hug and the stretched out her tiny arms to Richard. Richard took Marika over from Caelum and she gave him a hug.
'Nap!' was the word she spoke.
Richard looked at her and asked "You want to sleep?"
Marika nodded.
"Alright l'll bring you to your room and you can sleep."
Marika shook her head.
'nap to'
"Yes my princess I'll be with you, and take a nap with you."
Marika started to giggle and clapped her hands.
He then looked at Marika "But first I need to put some cloth one because its cold outside."
Marika looked at Derick 'Da!' and she stretched out her tiny arms again.
Derick took Marika over from Richard so he could dress himself. Marika hugged Derick and smiled happily in his arms.
Derick looked at her "My daughter is so cute!" and Marika laughed happily.
Then Derick try to test how her memories of everybody present.
He pointed at everybody one by one, 'bo dat, bo ke, bo lu.'
After that it was Genus and Azurite 'do ge, do az.'
And finally Caelum and the others turn, 'so so, so ca, so ai, du re, fe, ag.'
Richard came back and Derick pointed at him. Marika looked at Derick and said 'hu ri'
Richard look at him questioning and Derick gave Marika to him and Derick then asked "who am I" as he pointed at himself.
'da de'
