As the child's head reared itself, Linkle held her gasp for its body was covered in a dark slime. Letting it coat her hand, she slowly and with practised care scooped her hand around June's lower body to help the mother push the child out.
Gripping tight on Aradin's arm, June kept her eyes closed and let the screams escape. Pushing more and more, she howled in pain. The child's body was the first pass, and the head nearly split her body apart.
"AUGHH! HGHHH!!" Through gritted teeth, she grunted like a beast. "I-I'm gonna pass out…"
"Just a few seconds more, June. Keep going, we're almost done!" Lifting her head while still holding the baby's body, Linkle looked at June's pain-torn face. "You're doing great, okay? Just a few more seconds, and I'm sure we will be done. Think about your child and do it for them, okay?"
