Babies Everywhere

"I need help!" Makoto announced as he went through the doors of the hospital. Anika shook her head while practicing her calm breathing exorcizes. The doctors look over at the two making their way in. The nurse behind the counter smiled. 

"Makoto you need to calm down before you pass out." She said with a friendly smile. Makoto recognized her as the nurse that had helped them with any of the questions that they had ever had. Her name was Blaze and she looked like a college student. Makoto helped Anika over to the women to start filling out the paper work that was bound to be there. 

Blaze stood up and got a solemn look on her face. "Anika, are your contractions coming quickly?" Anika nodded as another one shot through her body. A worried expression came across Blaze's face. "For how long has this been happening?" 

"Well, the ride over here was about forty-five minutes." Anika answered.

 "And your water hasn't broke?" She asked already sitting her down in a wheel chair. It seemed like the two didn't even notice that that little detail was missing with all of the excitement from not too long ago. "We will get you checked out. Don't worry." Blaze explained. 

"What do you want me to do?" Makoto asked. 

"Just wait back here in the waiting room." Blaze said leading him back to the maternity waiting room. Anika threw her cell phone (which she finally broke down into getting one) at Makoto. 

"You wanna break the news to him?" She asked.

"Sure. Just relax."

"Hey Kan, you might want to get down here to the hospital. We think that Anika is going through..." Makoto started.

"What! I will be down there in a minute." Kan exaggerated a bit. He was over there in five minutes. The two boys sat out in the waiting room. Well, Makoto was waiting in the room while Kan was pacing it back and forth. 

"I wonder if everything is alright." Kan worried out loud. Makoto wouldn't admit it to Kan, but he was wondering the same thing.

"Makoto?" To the sound of his name, Makoto stood up. Blaze was standing there with a straight face. "Would you mind coming with me?" Blaze asked while already turning to walk away. Makoto looked at Kan. Kan pointed at him.

"You're going to need emotional help." He said pushing Makoto along. Sweat was starting to form on his forehead.

"She is about to go into surgery." Blaze explained. Makoto and Kan were standing there in the empty hallway as worry flashed over their faces. This caused even Kan to become speechless. "I know this is a shock." Blaze said.

"Why does she have to go into surgery?" 

"She needs to have a C section." Makoto's mind started to reel.

"Chiyo, will you get the diapers for me?" A women asked. The five year old daughter sighed a little and put down her toys that she was playing with. She stood up and straightened out her little plaid skirt. She was wearing a plain white teeshirt as well.She went over to the cabinet and got the reached for the diapers. She found that she was too short to reach the top shelf.

"Great." She got a small grin on her small face and started to levitate off the ground. She was soon in the air next to the top shelf and grabbed what she had wanted.

"Chiyo, what have I told you about using your powers?" The young girl's mother asked. The girl, Chiyo, put on an innocent face.

"You said not to transform. You didn't say anything about using my powers." She floated herself over to her mother.

"Aren't you smart?" Her mother said smiling playfully. She put her arms in the until Chiyo flew into them. Chiyo's mother was beautiful. She was slender and wore very stylish clothes, in Chiyo's opinion. Chiyo embraced her mother as she climbed onto her back and kept her arms around her neck.

"Did Shiba have an accident?" She asked while watching her mother get the six month old ready to have his diaper changed. 

"Yes, he did." Her mother sighed. 

"Kyri!" Chiyo instantly shuttered at the voice. That was her dad. He wasn't always mean but right now, he sounded like he was in a bad mood.

"Chiyo would you mind looking after your brother?" Kyri asked. Chiyo got off of her mother's back as she finished changing Shiba. "Be a good big sister, all right?" Kyri said putting Shiba into his play pin. 

Shiba started to bat at the hanging toys that were just out of reach. Chiyo smiled down at her brother. She lightly started to pet the infant's soft head. He was such a fragile little baby. She was going to have to protect him once he grew up. Suddenly there was an icicle hanging down from the toy he was reaching for. 

"Mom! Mom! I know what Shiba's power is!"
