Joanne, Luna, and Bianca were more anxious than they had been in years.
Evolved didn't get 'sick'. Least of all, an avatar like Malachi.
To quell their nerves, they were making the conscious choice to tell themselves that things were going to be fine, and Malachi had simply gotten overexcited after kissing Joanne.
It may have been delusional, but as of right now, it was the only thing preventing him from going insane.
And soon, they weren't the only ones to experience a state of panic.
"Oh my god, what is that!?"
"T-The monsters, they're back!"
A large black tiger bounded across the reception hall and made a beeline straight for the wives' table.
"Serosh?" Joanne stood up.
"Something's wrong with brother! He just collapsed!"
Not one of the girls needed to hear a single thing else. They threw back their chairs forcefully and ran to the bathroom with Serosh leading the way.
As they got closer, they could hear the sound of screaming coming through the door.
