It was a good thing Tobias was quick to respond to Nadya's shouted demand, scurrying away from sight to retrieve Izzy from wherever he had hidden her. At least Izzy was ok. A brief moment of relief at the unharmed little girl crossed Nadya's features before her focus was back on Micah. As her brother was unphased by Tobias' animalistic tendencies it didn't surprise Nadya to have the deviant lick Micah. She wasn't exactly thrilled, mostly because she didn't want Tobias near him at all, but she didn't yell at Tobi for it either. His words, though hidden, explained to her why the healing power she possessed wasn't working. If there was something abnormal in his blood that the hunter had introduced it could be blocking her ability to heal. After all, she was unable to reverse her brother's effect of poison if it had damaged the tissue too badly.

If Nadya hadn't currently been holding shut the wound to her child then she probably would have launched herself at Tobias in fury, or at least providing a more adequate tongue lashing that the pair was more famous for getting into. Tobi's tattled excuse of Frost being the reason he took them would have a later fight. Nadya had never invited Frost to come over, he simply showed up in his stalker fashion. If it had been any other man she would think them to be courting her for how much he seemed to come around. For now it caused irritation to rub through Nadya as quickly as it had appeared. It was impossible for Nadya's mind to fully settle on the fury over the panicked fear. Her brother was the only calming force in the situation as any Alpha should be. Nadya knew they were not the family pack that they perhaps should be, that the twin's existence was bothersome at best, but to have her brother ensure they remain alive was a win in her opinion.

Tetra's power of teleportation was new to Nadya so was briefly confused, and highly irritated at being pressed up against Tobias as Tetra curled about the group. It was thoroughly disorientating being plucked from the cold of the forest, plummeted into an abyss of darkness, and then snapped into the blinding white light of the hospital lobby. Nadya blinked rapidly to clear the spots from her vision as her senses returned in attempt to register where it was they were. It was also a moment before the personnel of the hospital snapped out of their state of surprise in order to jump into action, having registered the sight of blood on the sudden newcomers. The desk nurse pressed the call button that brought the ER nurses from the back room.

"He's-..." And Nadya couldn't even begin, her voice wavering too much, not wanting to let go of Micah as the male nurse gingerly pried him from her hands. "We'll get him to the doctor." He wrapped the small boy in the blanket and rushed off leaving the desk nurse to replace him, opening up blankets and handing them over to Nadya and Tobias. "Is anyone else hurt?" She questioned dutifully, her gaze double checking on Izzy who was still using Tobi to keep upright. "We can see you in an exam room...get you cleaned up." The sight of the blood wasn't new to the hospital staff of course but having people just standing in the lobby covered in it didn't do well for keeping the calm of the other patients. The nurse wasn't afforded an answer though as no sooner had the proposal left her lips that Nadya had pulled Izzy from Tobi and forcefully shoved her palms into his chest with all her might to get him away.

The nurse shouted in surprise, jumping back from the pair. Izzy toddled back a few steps from being wrenched away, plopping back onto her butt due to her lack of balance and looked up quizzically at the unfolding scene. With Micah no longer in her arms to keep her anger at bay and her hands occupied she was fully capable of striking out at Tobias now. "You stupid beast!! It's all your fault, he could have died! Don't ever come near them again!" The fire coursed through her veins, her body wanting desperately to return to her animal form where it was much stronger.
