Ceon put on of his hands on her back, "Layna, I don't have to go if you don't want me to. Just say the word and I'll stay. I want to make you happy." Gabriel began crawling around the room, looking for something to play with.

Layna raised her eyes back to him. "You won't stay.... I've tried to say for you not to.... You always end up hurt...." She mumbled. She looked away from him to watch her curious son wander around the room, looking for mischief.

Ceon sighed with a small sense of agitation, "Layna, you either want me to go or not. It's a YES or NO question." Meanwhile, Gabriel saw a tiny metal ball lying on the ground in a corner of the room, and instantly crawled for it. By the time Ceon saw that his son was going after the remains of a silver bullet, he had no time to react. Gabriel let out a harsh wail as the silver ball dropped to the ground and a large burn was left in his son's hand. Ceon scooped Gabriel up in his arms immediately, trying to examine the wound and calm his son down.

At the sound of her son's crying, Layna felt the instinctive urge behind a female's mind. She growled loudly and stood. "Pain is the only thing I've found when you go out there!" She snapped, walking to her son. Her jaw was tightly clenched against the raging growl that chattered her teeth. "My family only seems to get hurt...."

Ceon gave Layna an icy glare as he took Gabriel into the kitchen, "We can talk about this later. Now help me with Gabriel's burn. This is the first time he's ever touched silver, so it'll probably leave a small scar minimum. ceon turned on the sink and ran Gariel's burnt hand under some cold water.

Layna crumpled under his gaze, wiping stray tears from her grey eyes. She followed quietly. "Why is there a bullet here..?" She murmured quietly, her hands shaking with emotion.

"Probably one I got shot with, and took out here. I must have missed thhat one when I swept up that room." Ceon looked down at Gabriel and softened his voice, "Okay Gabriel, this might sting a bit." Ceon slowly tipped the bottle of peroxide over the burn. Gabriel instantly yelped and clanched his burnt hand tight as the liquid touched his skin.

Layna physically winced at the cry of her son. It hurt her deep within, for when a mother heard their children cry, no matter what the species, they wished to take that pain away.

Ceon wrapped some gauze around his son's hand and set him on the counter, "That wasn't so bad, was it?" Gabriel shook his head, and began sucking his thumb as the last tears trickled down his face.

Layna stood silently, tears gathering in her eyes. "Silver....He shouldn't have touched it so young...I wanted him to be safe..." She murmured, helplessly sobbing.

"The damage is done, Layna. There's nothing we can do about it." Ceon took Gabriel in his arms and looked at Lana, a serious look on his face,"Layna, do we want me to go on the the hunt or not?"

Layna felt disgruntled to answer, but slowly nodded. "I will go as well..." She whispered, her hands shaking. When she thought of hunting, she remembered a similar scene in her childhood memories. That hunt had not turned out well.

Ceon was a bit shocked by Layna's unexpected answer, but was glad that she was willing to join him. He smiled, "Okay. I talked to Sybil. She said that Jaden would babysit Gabriel while we are away."

Layna looked livid at the thought of another taking care of her son, but she sighed. She knew Jaden was trustworthy. That was a definite fact, and she knew Gabriel would be well taken care of. "Al....right...." She murmured, keeping her voice even.

Ceon picked up Gabriel and layed him gently in his crib. Ceon came back into the living room and ahd helped Layna up, "Come on, love, we need our rest." Ceon wrapped his arm aroun her shoulders as he he spoke softly.
