The time had reached well past noon when Jesika and her beloved finally made it to the vast Hospital Wing. Trotting in quietly, Jesika poked about, in search of a nurse that wasn't overloaded with other duties. The smell of tincture tainted the air heavily, and a few coughs sounded from behind several linen veiled cubicles. As much as Jesika had hated to visit the doctor back home, she didn't mind seeing Kasey or Carrie.
"Darling, you ready?"
Jesika squeeked before taking her place near the door again.

"I sure am, Precious." the blonde young man said with a quiet smile. Kez waited for Jess to come back as she surveyed the place, all the while holding little Aya in his arms. He cradled the little one's tiny form in one arm while the other held a milk bottle to her mouth. The little girl slept soundly in his embrace, secure to know that they finally came for her.
Kez took a roundabout look about the place from his spot, seeing that the place had not changed much. Other than Kasey changing the color of her hair, this was still the same place he went to, whether it was dragging in other students or dragging himself in. It was certainly a different experience to come here without any physical ailments, and he had high hopes that kasey or Carrie would be able to help.

Unfortunately both Kasey and Carrie were still out on leave. Fortunately, Ashlle happened to be in the back room, cleaning the closets again.
Thought she'd had a bad encounter with a Evil Lycan, she refused to stay put, and had went so far as to magic a chair to scoot her around where she needed to be. This was her greatest feet of magic to date but, necessity bred ingenuity as the Muggles said.
Soon she came out of the back room -having tired herself out- and was going to take a break at the desk, when she spotted Kezaa her Teacher, and his lovely wife Jesika. "Greetings, I am the Temp Head Nurse Ashlle Rainier." she introduced herself like this because she was unsure if she'd ever met Jesika face to face though she'd seen her a couple times in the halls. "How can I help you?" she looked the two of them up and down. They didn't look sick.
Then she suddenly noticed the little girl Kezaa held. Many feelings went thought Ashlle at that moment. She couldn't help seeing how sweet the little girl was and it tore at her cold heart. Also she was surprised that such a small child would be inside a clearly unprotected Castle as this.
Finally she decided to be professional about the whole thing. Getting all cutesy and cuddly would show weakness and by the way the Evil Lycan talked, enemies were always watching her. Also there was a rule that Ashlle had heard once 'Don't touch the Baby' because babies got sick easier than older kids such as herself or grown ups.
"The child, is she yours?" she asked politely.

"Huh? Ashlle?" Kez stammered slightly, his face turning to bleak concern.
"What are you doing? I realize that the other nurses aren't in, but are you sure that you can perform well? Shouldn't you be in bed?"
(OOC) Ugggh, that was terrible..... >< I think I'm going back to bed now.

Ashlle smiled feebly
"Well, I'm the only one here and I was able to figure out how to make this lovely chair work." She twirled her wand above her head and made the chair go in circles. Then she waved her wand slowly in their direction and and the chair scooted toward them slowly.
It didn't seem to be touching the ground, so it made no noise as it crossed the floor. "- so I think It'll be ok, so long as I don't try to lift anything heavy. Your Baby is cute" she added no that she was close enough to see better.
OOC: ok you get some rest, I may be here in the late afternoon or I might not be here till tomorrow but we'll see. Thanks for RPing with me!

As the strange Lady in the movable chair came closer to Daddy, Aya paid no attetion to her. She was warm and safe at last, away from mean Gram who didn't have a pony. Away from her smelly old Kneezles who scrached when Aya wanted to play with them.
She was safe now, safe in the arms of a Daddy who loved her, and drinking a bottle that Mummy made up for her. Mummy was close by too, and nothing could get her so long as she was with them.
She snuggled closer to Daddy and sighed happily.
OOC: I's is small, I's don't have much to say.

Jesika recognized the young girl who was to be their nurse. It was the same girl who she had heard about from Kez. They used to train together, and Kezaa and her were close and fond friends. A coy smile scuplted her almost gray lips as she laid her green irises upon the girl.
"Ashlle? I've heard so much about you...it's a pleasure."
Jesika projected a hand as a friendly gesture, and watched the girl intricately. She had no idea why she had been acting the way she was, but it was time to get to the bottom of things.
"I've been experiencing some strange behavior...since conception. I was wondering if you could help."
Jesika nervously laced her fingers and darted her eyes from Kez and Aya to Ashlle.

"Hmmm" said Ashlle. She shook Jesika's hand and then quickly felt her pulse. It was with in an normal range, according to the book, Ashlle determined. She'd read those Healer books over so many times she'd almost memorized them.
"If you'd please have a seat near my desk, we can discuss this matter more thoroughly." she suggested, gesturing to the Head Nurse desk at the end of the Hospital Wing. For some reason a strange thought had entered Ashlle's mind. When she was in her first orphanage many ladies came in to 'dispose off' their children because they could afford to keep them.
Once a very rich lady had come in and said "if you don't' take her I just may kill her!" and had unceremoniously dumped a wrapped bundle on the desk. Once she'd left one of the Nurses had whispered to another that the Lady was suffering from The Mother Syndrome or Postpartum Stress and Depression. Ashlle had never heard any details, neither had she even hear what sort of symptoms that Jesika had, but some how the thought had creped into her head anyway.
"If you could describe to me these symptoms?" she asked once they'd got to the desk.

After taking a seat near the desk, Jesika began to explain what had been going on with her.
"It's strange really. It's almost like I have no control over my emotions at times. Some mornings I wake up extremely depressed, and other mornings I'm fine. It's bizaar...this morning I-I...almost...took...my own life."
Jesika looked down at the tile floor in shame.
"I didn't even want to, but I couldn't stop it..."

Quietly Kez arose from his seat, still holding little Aya in one arm, carefully cradling her so that she would rest comfortably with the support of just one arm. Placing the bottle aside, Kez led casual but stealthy steps over to Jess from behind as she spoke.
He gazed upon her, this lovely wife of his. Never had he seen her in such a state in all the years he knew her. Kez felt that Jess had always cherished his company, even though they had to spend much time appart. His endless nights of unrest induced by his separation anxiety had probably driven him over deeper cliffs of madness and depression than even he could fathom.
That's why, Kez knew what was wrong with Jesika. It was him.
As Jess timidly admitted that morning's events, Kez reached out a hand and touched her face from her left back corner. He offered a serene smile, disguising the truth that spurted a welling pain within his heart. He would be there for her. And love her, no matter how painful his presence was in her life.

"Hmmmm!" said Ashlle again this time allowing her astonishment to register on her tones. All thoughts of the 'Mother Syndrome' quickly vanished. If Jesika had not wished to throw herself to her death, but something had forced her, than this might be a case of possession rather than physical or mental illness.
"Have you been anywhere near a Demon or Half-Demon in the past . . . " Ashlle stopped her gaze flickering briefly on Kezaa and remembering his transformation last year. "Let me rephrase the question." She said hastily. "Have you been anywhere near a malevolent Demon, Half Demon or entity of similar power in the Past twelve months?"

Being full, Aya let Daddy take away her bottle. Oh it was good to be home in the Magic School! When Daddy got up Aya gurgled happily, as she hadn't in a long while.
"Daddy" she smiled and grabed the laple of his jacket in her fist and giggled.

Jesika tipped her head in thought, gazing at her lovely husband and child.
"Not that I know of. Do you think that is what could of happened??"
She cooed as she cuddled up to Kezaa. His warm body was just as comfortable it was on their wedding night. Oh how she wished to spend eternity in this man's arms. Breathing comfortably as her nerves relaxed. Jesika rested her head on his muscular chest, and blinked tiredly.

Ashlle's brow furrowed, thinking over what had been said. No contact with malevolent beings? Yet she was sure that She'd been made to jump. What was going on here? Ashlle thought and thought. May it was Postpartum Stress and Depression. Ashlle was no doctor and she only heard a bit about it. Still it had sounded like a Muggle disease form what she had heard.
"I think I aught to keep you here in the Hospital Wing for observation. I'm not really sure but it could be Postpartum Stress and Depression, commonly referred to as 'the Mother Syndrome'. It is the most common illness following childbirth. It is characterized by frequent crying, mood swings, irritability, extreme fatigue, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, loss of sexual interest, anxiety, appetite changes, negative scary thoughts, feelings of inadequacy, hopelessness and despair. In addition, thoughts of suicide and feelings of anger, shame and guilt are often present."
Ashlle sighed. "Unfortunately that is all I've ever heard or read about it. I may have to call in a specialist from The Ministry to help me out. I've never had a patient that I couldn't cure with a potion before.
OOC: who should we get to be the 'specialist'? Or should we make her up?

"Mummy no sick." Said Aya worriedly. She looked into Ashlle's eyes and saw how grave they were. This frightened her. "Mummy no Sick! Mummy No Sick!" she said louder, as if the Volume of her voice could ward off the 'germs' "MUMMY NO SICK!!!" She howled and burst into tears.
