Emerald heard Millie's scream and maternal instincts took over. She instantly leapt into action, following the childs scent to the spot where she knealed, crying. Emerald gently scooped the little girl into her arms, stroking her blonde hair smoothly.

"Shhhh. firefly, I got you. Im right here I wont let anything happen to you." Emerald told the girl. She held Millie close to her chest as she sat down on the floor. "Just tell me whats wrong okay my little firefly?"

"Th'there wat a man! An-an-and he wat weird and ugly and he came to me and I-i-i-i glowed alot! He couldn't tea! Then I woke up, it cary outide." She sobbed as she buried her face into Emerald's shirt and wrapped her little arms around her neck.

Emerald listened to the little girl story, summing up all the things she could do to help in her head. Emerald gently began rocking Millie back and forth murmerring an unknown language unless you spoke in Lupine tounge. She stroked the little girl's hair, trying her best to get her to calm down so much that she would fall back asleep.

"Shhh, Firefly no one is gonna hurt you, that man isnt real okay? Now go back to sleep, I wont leave you, I will stay right here and hold you.' emerald soothed

"But he wat real! An he wat cary! An I till cared!" She whimpered, still burying her face in Emerald's shirt. But Emerald's voice was soothing, especially since she didn't understand it, and she began to slowly quiet down, feeling more and more relaxed the more Emerald rocked her and stroked her hair.

"He wont get you. I will protect you." Emerald soothed, rocking Millie back and forth. Making sure that the little one was safe was her job. Emerald stroked Millie's hair gently as she began to talk in Lupine tounge, in the most soothing way she knew. She made sure to keep the little one safe from harm, soothing her with small hymns in Lupine tounge.

Millie's eyes closed and her breathing softened. Slowly, the glow from her hands died out and she began to softly snore, feeling secure and comfortable in Emerald's arms. The Lupine hymns aided in sending her back to sleep and her body became relaxed as she slept soundly.

Emerald smiled at Millie, holding her close to her chest. The wolf girl felt her eyes drop slowly before falling into a deep sleep, still stroking Millies hair soothingly as she did so.

((can't help it...gotta get it out of my system: AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!... that's better))

As Millie lay fast asleep in Emerald's arms, her foot twitched, showing that she had begun to dream again. Why she was having so many nightmares, she had no idea, but she begun again. She was now in a cell and there was a man in a white doctors uniform. Her breathing quickened and she twitched more.

Emerald gently tightened her grip on Millie in her slumber instinctively. She felt memories come back to her from the labs but she managed to supress them enough to have a semi good dream about meat.

Millie twitched softly as her nightmare progressed. The man in white approached her. He had blue eyes and blonde, slicked back hair. His smile was crooked and yellow. He reached behind his back and pulled out Millie's precious teddy. She squealed and lunged forward, shoving her arms through the bars as she tried to reach her teddy.

"GIMME MERLIN THE WONDER TEDDY! DON'T TOUCH HIM!" She shouted as a tear rolled down her face. "Don't worry Merlin the Wonder Teddy, I'm right here, I love you, don't be afraid. I'm here." She cooed to her teddy before glaring at the man in white again. "HE WANT TO TEA ME! LET HIM GO!"

The man meerly chuckled and pushed the teddy closer and further to Millie, teasing her as she begged and pleaded for him to let her teddy go. Then, his twisted smile turned into something worse, a smirk. He put down the teddy and injected the teddy with a shot. The bear dropped to the ground and began to squirm. Merlin cried out in a small voice for Millie and Melissa began to shake the bars, trying to get to her teddy. "MERLIN THE WONDER TEDDY! HOLD ON! I WILL HELP YOU! TOP NOW! YOU'RE HURTING HIM!" then the worst that someone could do to Millie occured, Merlin's stomach ripped open and stuffing flew out from his soft body.

Millie broke down in tears in both her dream and in real life and she kept repeating "NO!! NO! COME BACK! DON'T DIE!" as her tears began to glow. Within milliseconds, Millie's light burst out from every place on her body. Then man flew back, shielding his eyes and covering his skin. Not only was he now blind, but his skin was actually burning, her light was creating heat and burning him.

In the real world, Millie's entire body was glowing, not nearly as bright as in her dreams, but she was glowing enough for someone to shield their eyes in pain and feel just a little bit of warmth. She was still crying and whimpering "NO! NO! DON'T DIE! I LOVE YOU, TAY WITH ME!"

Emerald's eyes shot open when she felt a sudden change in Millies position. She felt as if her heart was being torn from her body as the little girl started to whimper and cry in her dreams. "Millie! NO one is dead. Honey, wake up." Emerald urgently said, shaking the little girl, trying to get her to wake up. She rubbed Merlins soft fur against her face to see if it would arouse the child

She had nightmares when she was little but she never thought they could make a child scream that much.

Millie continued to cry as Emerald rubbed Merlin on her face.

The man in white threw some of the bear's stuffing at Millie and it hit her in the face. She grasped it quickly and brought it to her face, crying as she rubbed it against her tear-stained cheek. "PLEAT! TOP!"

Millie's leg kicked out violently and her glow became even brighter as the fear of loosing her precious teddy grasped her tightly.

"Honey, wake up" Sounded faintly in Millie's ears as she continued to scream and kick in her cell. The man in white was laughing through his crooked smile and he injected the teddy with another shot.

Millie's eyes shot open and she flew up into Emerald's arms. She whimpered in fear as she found that she was in a different place then she had just been in. Her red eyes looked at Emerald's hair, as she could not see her face, and felt just a little bit more calm, but not too much. "He hurt Merlin the Wonder Teddy!" She cried, gasping for air as it was hard to breathe. "Hit tummy wat ripped out! I loved him! He killed him!" She gasped.

Emerald sat Millie up into sitting position on her lap, stroking her hair Gently. She handed the bear to Millie, placing him in the little girl's arms. "See, Merlin is fine, nothing is wrong!" Emerald soothed, tail wagging back and forth. "Millie do you want me to turn into my wolf form and curl up around you?It might make you feel safer."

Millie smiled and hugged her teddy tightly before kissing his head and rubbing his tummy. She whispered in his ear about how much she loved him and still loves him and will never let anyone hurt him. When Emerlad offered to turn into her wolf form so Millie could feel safe, she thought Emerald would want her to sleep.

"I'm fine. I just don't wanna leep again. I can't, I'm too cared." She mumbled into Emerald's shoulder. "Can you make ture I don't leep. Maybe we can get a nack, or play a game. I don't want to have a nightmare again. Pleat."

"Yea, sure baby." Emerald responded to the child, tail wagging back and forth softly. Emerald gently lifted Millie up and began carrying the child off to play something. However, the wolf girl hoped that Millie would eventually be able to have a good nights sleep.
