Malachite moaned as he woke up. He was shirtless wearing only a pair of black pants. His top hat lay on top of his jacket and shirt folded underneath him. He waved his hand conjuring a mirror as he saw his face still had a few bruises and scars that would hopefully heal in time. And he could see the bandages on his arms chest, and stomach. That robotic brat had done more damage than he'd realized. Just then the door opened as Pete almost knocked him onto his back as he was hugging him. He hugged Pete back. He still felt bad his son was a dragon. So
"Pete it's okay. I'm alright. It'll take a lot more to take me down." Said Malachite.
He looked up in surprise to see his shadow appear and apologize to him. That he did not expect.
"Are you kidding? You were amazing out there. I'm grateful you're alright." said Malachite.
He smiled as Gi and Shaggy arrived. He blushed a bit at Shaggy's joking tone. His family had grown a lot more than he'd planned. Gi was Olive's girlfriend and Shaggy was like another member of the family. In his eyes they both were and he wouldn't let anyone hurt his family.

Pete walked to the room. He had gone to get something to eat reluctantly. He'd gotten a quick meal and was back to see his dad. He opened the door seeing Malachite awake as he rushed up hugging him. Or tried to. Being a kid dragon it was harder to hug him as his arms were so small. So all he could do was nuzzle him.
"You're okay! When Papa said you were hurt I thought I was going to lose you." whispered Pete.
Pete grinned seeing Gi and Shaggy arrive.
"He might be with Papa. I hope they're okay." said Pete.

Malachite's Shadow flew in having kept an eye on Pete. And he could sense when Malachite was awake. He flew over and tipped his hat into a bow showing his loyalty to him.
"I'm sorry I failed you. You nearly died...."
He smiled as Malachite said he had been amazing and he smiled at the praise. He was always glad to make his master happy. He'd vowed to do better so Malachite nor his family would end up this badly hurt again.

Gi walked in next. It was hard being a duck but she hoped this spell would be reversed soon.
"Hey, Pete. Have you seen Olive? I got separated from him and... Oh! Malachite you're awake! That 's good news. I'm sure Facilier and Olive will be overjoyed at the news." said Gi.
She grinned.
"Rita, Elliot, and Leonardo have been standing outside since you were found from what I hear. I don't envy anyone wanted to go up against any of them.." said Gi.
XXXX
Shaggy walked in next spotting the group. He was Facilier's familiar but he'd kind of become part of this family in a way. Kind of like a big brother or an uncle of sorts to Olive and Pete. At least that's how he saw himself as. He smiled seeing Malachite was okay.
"Thank goodness. I'm glad you're okay. You focus on getting better." said Shaggy.
Shaggy chuckled.
Although if you pull something that stupid again and have everyone worry about you I might ask for you to be locked up for your own safety. And for our sanity." said Shaggy.
