The Evil Topic In Which Anything Could Happen

"I don't wanna doooo this..." Holly said, "Don't maaaaake me...."
She took a deep breath and muttered a complicated little charm, which would hopefully make an invisible hand poke Shadow continulously.

Shadow just ignored this.

Holly made the hand poke Shadow some more.
"Tell mee...." she said, "I will take it that if you don't talk, you don't love me, you don't even like me and never want to speak to me again."

Shadow raised an eyebrow, and cancelled Holly's charm with her magic.

"Fine. I geddit." Holly said, and turned to walk away.

Archangel and Onyx looked very confused, to the point where Onyx began to cry silently.

"SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOIN!" Holly yelled, turning around to point at Onyx, "Just TELL me for Arias' sake!"

Natalie, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
"I feel I have to step in...I think we have the right to allow Shadow the privacy of what is going on...and then, if she sees fit at any time...she can tell any one of us whom she feels she can trust," said Natalie firmly, pulling Holly backwards slightly.
"And I think it may be best if it is a secret right now...as Shadow seems a bit distressed about telling us."

A small light seemed to pop up above Archangel's head.
"Raven visited two weeks ago..."

"RAVEN VISITED TWO WEEKS AGO!" Holly hissed to Natalie, eyes wide, "Wha.....wha? What's that mean?"

Archangel kicked at a stone on the ground.
"Well, she had the same symptoms, and it was only when Raven left that mother started acting wierd..."

"Mmmm..." Natalie said, thinking, "sounds like the early on-coming signs of permanent demonism...or something worse..."

"That's what I was thinking," Holly lied, "Good theory .... "

Shadow scowled.

Archangel and Onyx looked confused again.

"BLAH!" Holly said, to get her anger out at Shadow, just in case she said anything she regretted. But it was looking like that was about to come anyway.

Shadow began to chuckle quietly to herself.

"It really pis*es me off when you do that." Holly stated, looking at her expectantly.

"You have no idea, do you?" Shadow said.

Holly stared.
"If I had an idea, would I be standing here yelling at you?!" she asked, almost speechless at the question.

"Archangel just gave you the key to understanding." Shadow said.

"Did she?" Holly asked, looking around, "I wasn't listenin..."

Shadow had a rather strong urge to bang her head off a tree.

"So you ARE preggers!" Holly said, misunderstanding.

"Technically yes, but not with my own child!" Shadow snapped.

Holly stared.
"SICK!" she yelled, then thought, "Who's then? Raven's? OHMIGOD?"
She pointed to Archangel and mouthed "Hers?"
