The
Lily and Brandon Chronicles: The Kidnapped Paige
THE BIOGRAPHY OF LILY AND BRANDON
Lily- Lily has two eyes, long, curly orange hair with purple streaks and bangs like Leela's, a pink tank top with a peace sign, blue jeans, and white tennis shoes. She loves to sing, and spend lots of time with her father. Her father and her are extremely close, more than anybody knows. She's nice to animals, but not a true fan of her brother. She likes to tease and torment her brother, but he can't stop loving her. She's got two friends at school named Nicole and Kia. Like she is with her father, she loves to be near her Uncle Bender, which is the only time she likes her brother.
Brandon- Brandon has one eye, purple hair with orange streaks and bangs like Fry's, a red T-shirt, blue pants, and white sneakers. He loves to play with his pet turtle, Matt, and to hang out with his sister, Lily. He has no idea that she always torments him, but focuses on her. He's like a troublemaker, but only with his Uncle Bender. He's never ashamed of his one eye, and spends lots of time with his mother. He's got a friend named Standler, who is technically, a robot. He likes girls, but is always idolized by Kia, Lily's friend, which apparently he likes as well.
Together, they'll face obstacles like never before, in the face of the future.
CHAPTER 1: The Kidnapped Paige
"Brandon! Give me back my Pikachu!" Lily exclaimed as she chased Brandon around her bedroom. Brandon had just woke up and stole her Pikachu plush toy, which was a matter of tease. Brandon lead her into the living room where Fry and Leela were watching TV on the couch.
"What's going on? Did you find the snake underneath your bed?" Fry asked Lily."Huh?" she asked.
"No, she hadn't found it, yet." Brandon said.
"What snake! Anyway, no. Brandon wont give me my Pikachu back!" Lily said.
"Brandon?" Leela said.
"Fine." Brandon said as he
handed Lily the plush. "I just wanted a little Sunday energy."
"I'll pretend I can hear that." Brandon said.
Lily groaned.
"Gosh, I don't really understand the ways of my sister. It's at times like this I wish I'd listened to what she told me when I was little." Brandon asked.
"What did she say?" Fry asked."I don't know, I wasn't listening." Brandon replied.
"Look, trying to get her attention is something that she's not really happy for you to do. I mean, of course, she's your sister, but I think you need to stop... attentionizing her." Leela said.
"Yeah, I guess your right. But there's nothing that I can do to make her like me." Brandon said as he hung his head."What are you talking about? Lily loves you. She loves you from the bottom of her heart." Fry said.
"Yeah. But you'll have a lifetime to bond with her. You know, to figure out why your sister torments you." Leela said.
"A lifetime isn't nearly long enough to figure out what it's all about." Brandon said.
"Well, in the meantime, your mother and I have to go to work." Fry said."Can we come?" Lily asked as she walked in the living room.
"Yeah, we wanna go on deliveries with you." Brandon said.
"Oh, all right. But Lil, you'll be in charge of your brother." Leela said.
"Okay." Lily said.
"What?" Brandon asked.
"You've got ears, you know what she said." Lily said.
"People, today you will not be making a delivery to any planet whatsoever." Hermes announced.
Fry, Leela, and Bender cheered.
"Well, at least this is the darkest day for Planet Express--" the Professor said."Don't bother me. I'm living happily ever after." Bender said as he set his legs on the conference table.
"Aww, man!" Brandon exclaimed.
"Don't worry, Brand. There's always tomorrow. Or next week. Or the week before that, but that still wouldn't count." Lily said.
"But do you think that there'll be another delivery at what day you just said?" Brandon asked.
"I'm sure of it. Where there's a will, there's a way." Lily said as she smiled.
"And if there's a will, I wanna be in it." Bender said.
Suddenly, Leela began to groan, clutching her stomach. Fry gently put his hands on her shoulders, patting her right shoulder.
"Leela, what's wrong?" Fry asked worriedly."Mom, are you okay?" Lily asked.
"My stomach's hurting a little..." she said.
"Do you need to see a doctor?" Fry asked.
"Did somebody say doctor?" Zoidberg asked as he walked in the conference room.
"Oh, Lord." Leela whispered."Not him." Fry whispered.
"Leela, I think I might be able to handle with your stomach problem. I just happened to get a good movement out of myself after eating those eggs from that turtle." Zoidberg said.
"That wasn't eggs." Brandon
said. "That was dirt that Matt spit out when he ate it."
"Hey,
if it's dirt, it's served." Zoidberg said.
In Zoidberg's hospital room, Leela sat down on the bed, with Fry next to her."So, Leela, has there been any stomach problems occurring lately?" Zoidberg asked, holding the clipboard.
"Well, a little. I'm pregnant." she said as she took Fry's hand as they both smiled.
"Really? How long have you been in this condition?"
"Five months."
"Hmm... Have you had the same problem like this before?"
"No, not even when I was pregnant with Lily and Brandon."
"She felt well this morning, but last night, she was sweating." Fry said.
"Hmm, this is very interesting. Leela, have you ever taken anything while you were pregnant?"
"No, of course not."
"... Well, Leela." Zoidberg said after he wrote the information down on the clipboard. "I cannot say for certain, I can't. But there may be a tiny chance that your baby may have a genetic disorder."
Leela gasped. But Fry had no idea what that meant.
"... A terrible condition for the newborn." Zoidberg finished.
Fry gasped.
"How can Paige have that?" Fry asked.
"Well, in this case, I don't have a clue what this disorder is caused by. However, I might be able to help you. There is one person who could help you. Her name is Kaya Whitman. She is a genetic counselor and a pregnancy therapist. Here, I'll give you her card." Zoidberg said as he handed Leela the small card.

"Is she good?" Leela asked.
"Well, she did make me find out that my whole goal in life was to suffocate my sorrow in working as a doctor. But apparently the day has been done." Zoidberg replied as he started to sob really loudly.
Hours later, Fry and Leela took a visit to Kaya Whitman's Genetic and Pregnancy Therapy as Zoidberg ordered. As they sat on the chair and faced the desk, they saw a tall, blonde woman with her hair wrapped up in a pony tail walk into the room. She had on a long-sleeved orange shirt and a black mini skirt. She looked more like a 20 year old, and held a clipboard."Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Fry." she said.
"Hello." Fry and Leela said in unison.
"I'm Kaya Whitman, your therapist.
I hear from your records your unborn baby may have a genetic
disorder?" she asked.
"Yes, ma'am." Leela said.
"Well, Mr and Mrs Fry, soon enough, you'll have nothing to worry about. There are always good and possible chances that you will give birth to a healthy baby. But in the meantime, we better get started."
Fry put his hand over Leela's hand on the handles of the chair. They both smiled and prepared for the next imployment.
"Now then... How long have you two been married?" Kaya asked."Nine years." Fry replied.
"Do you have other children?"
"Two. Lily and Brandon. They're 9 and 7." Leela said.
"Now... is this pregnancy of yours wanted or unwanted?"
"Wanted." both Fry and Leela said again.
"Good." she said as she wrote down the information on the paper. "Now, have you ever had a horrible feeling in your stomach before this happened, Leela?"
"No, not really. It just
started today." Leela answered.
"... This next question may seem
uncomfortable to you a little, but it's part of a way to help your
baby."
"Okay. We're willing to listen to
anything." Fry said.
"All right... Mrs. Leela, have you
ever had sex with your husband while you were pregnant?"
"Well, a little. Sometimes at
night we do. But when I don't feel well, we don't have sex. He just
holds me every night."
"Good. How many times in total?"
"Probably three or four or five
times."
"What is your occupation?"
"We both work at Planet Express." Fry said.
"The delivery company? Hmm. I
heard about you people. You saved the planet from that asteroid of
garbage."
"Yeah." Leela said.
"Have you made any deliveries to
an unusual place before?"
"Well, to one planet. It was
inhabited by weird particles of genes that surfaced the air."
Leela said.
"Genes? This must have been part
of your problem."
"I'm not sure. Leela, will you come with me? There's someone I have to introduce you to." Kaya asked.
"Sure... Can my husband come, too?" she asked.
"Sure. If he wants to." Kaya said.
"I always want to be by Leela." Fry said as he smiled at his wife.
Kaya, Fry, and Leela then walked into a next room just ahead of the hallway. It turns out this place was also for examination. As they approached the room, it looked more like a doctor's room, only with more scientific advantages. There turned around reading a clipboard was a brown-haired woman with tan skin and a lab coat on.
"Rita?" Kaya asked.
The woman turned around and smiled at the therapist. She took the clipboard in one of her hands and approached the trio of people.
"Rita, this is Philip and Leela Fry. Apparently, Mrs. Leela here needs examination for any genetic disruptions." Kaya said.
"Pleased to meet you." Rita said as she shook hands with both Fry and Leela.
"Fry, Leela, this is Rita Johnson, she's a professional medical nurse, and she will be examining you for any genetic disorders. Now, it wont be uncomfortable, just a few tests and results, and it'll be all over." Kaya said.
"Oh, that wont be a problem." Leela said."Good. I'll meet up with you in a few hours." Kaya said as she left the room.
"Just have a seat up here." Rita instructed as she patted the hospital bed.
Leela sat down on the hospital bed, with Fry supporting at her side. He took her hand and held it tight, preparing again for the result of their problem. Rita approached Leela again with a clipboard in her hands, and read the information well.
"You are... five months pregnant?" she asked."Yes, ma'am." Leela said.
"That's great... A boy or a girl?"
"Girl. We're naming it Paige. We saw it on the ultrasound just a few weeks ago." Fry said.
"Wow. Good... Great... Now, I need you to lay back on this hospital bed. Mr. Fry, would you mind getting the lights?" Rita asked.
Fry did as she instructed and turned off the lights. As he got back, holding Leela's hand again, Rita already instructed a machine, which showed her blood type in an instant. There was a control at the end, which examined the in parts of the body.
"This is just like the ultrasound, but a little more clearer." Rita advised.
It turns out that the control was rested on Leela's belly, where they began investigating what is wrong with the baby. They found the little infant, moving and kicking in Leela's stomach.
"She's beautiful." Rita said."She gets it from her mother." Fry said.
"She reminds me of my six year old daughter, Kelsey." Rita said.
"Oh, really?" Leela asked.
"Yes. But... she died in a car accident with my husband..."
"Oh, Rita, I'm sorry." Leela said.
"It's all right. You're lucky you have a child. Your own child..."
"Yeah. She's also got a brother and sister at home."
"Oh, that's great." Rita said. "... Now, I'm going to run more tests again. And you have to tell me everything about your other kids, Lily and Brandon. Because this may be small help to save your unborn child..."
