Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Anything else: I don't think I thought of this idea until after we got into season 3 which is too bad. But I have nothing else to do or write and I needed to do something to keep me sane so here I go. Reviews are welcomed.

Our story begins around three weeks after the big Olivia/Fauxlivia switch in the season 2 finale, so it's all a different take from the show from there. You'll find out what happened to Olivia later, I swear.

Liberty Island

They knew something had burst when the earth shook beneath them. That had to have been a 4.5 on the Richter Scale yet it was surprisingly quick. Two workers immediately rushed to the basement to see water rising up from the floor and giant cracks had appeared in the concrete wall. "Damn! This is gonna take weeks to clean up."

"Shh! You hear that?"

The two men listened carefully. A strange moaning noise was coming from the deep cracks. One of them grabbed a flashlight and took a look within. He thought his mind was playing tricks on him. He thought he saw a tiny human foot but then the noise was getting louder and more distinct. He almost wanted to faint. It just wasn't possible.

Olivia's Apartment: Boston

Peter woke up and reached over for the phone. He tried not to wake her.

"Here, Peter. Let me."

"Sorry," he said.

"It's fine. You get use to calls coming in this late." Fauxlivia grabbed the phone and gave it to Peter. "Bishop."

Olivia was already out of bed and getting dressed by the time Peter was done.

"Broyles said they just had an earthquake on Liberty Island."

The realization made Fauxlivia's blood run cold. "Liberty Island?"

"He said something about finding a person in the concrete wall. They're taking him to Massive Dynamic." Peter could see Fauxlivia looking nervous. "You alright, Liv?"

She had to stay focus. A discovery in Liberty Island wouldn't mean the end of her mission. "I'm fine, Peter. Let's just go."

...

Massive Dynamic: New York

After picking up Walter, the group arrived at Massive Dynamic and they were led to the medical wing. When they went in, they were expecting a possible spy, a shapeshifter perhaps, lying in a medical bed. But when Peter opened the door, they found something else entirely. It was a small incubator. The newborn inside had some cuts and scrapes but was otherwise resting comfortably. Around the baby's leg was a bracelet with the label 'Baby John Doe'.

Broyles finally came in to explain the situation. "The child was found by two utility workers in Liberty Island. They reported an earthquake measuring around 4.5 and hurried to the basement to inspect the damage. They found this baby inside the damage done to the concrete wall."

"Wait," said Peter. "He was found inside the wall?"

"Apparently so," said Broyles. "I got there as they started drilling. They had to break through about 5 feet of concrete to get to this child."

"But how did a baby get inside a concrete wall and how is he still alive?"

"That remains to be seen."

Walter peered into the incubator. "This child's umbilical was recently severed. He couldn't be more than a day old. Did he still have his coat of vernix?"

Broyles was confused. "His what?"

A nearby doctor explained "yes, he did. We've determined that the baby had to have been about 30 minutes old when he found. He's lucky though. Chances are he would've died if he hadn't been found when he was."

"That's amazing," said Walter.

"That's impossible," said Peter. "Where's his mother? Was anyone else found in that basement?"

Broyles said, "The basement is being searched at the moment but so far there seems to be no indication that anyone else was down there. Security footage didn't know anyone having entered that basement for several hours prior to the earthquake."

Fauxlivia felt a quiet sense of relief knowing that her mission was still secure, but just like the others she had unanswered questions.

"There is only one possible explanation," said Walter. "The child must've crossed over from the other side. That would explain the earthquake."

"That doesn't explain how though," said Peter. "...or why."

Fauxlivia knew she had to say something to avoid any suspicion. "You said that the Secretary has his office on Liberty Island," she said. "Chances are he might've been involved in getting this baby here."

"Unusual plan," said Walter. "Perhaps he intends to use this child as a weapon or a means of attack of sorts. Would it be possible to take him to the lab to examine?"

"He needs to stay here," said Broyles. "He's not in any condition to leave."

"What a shame," said Walter. "He is rather adorable."

Brandon looked rather nervous as he approached the group with a pile of papers. "Uh...this is rather awkward."

"What do you mean?" asked Broyles.

"Well, I've been spending the past hour doing DNA tests to see if we could find out who Baby John Doe's parents are." He turned to Peter. "Um...we found Bishop DNA, so I guess I should be congratulating you." He reached out a hand. "It looks like you're this baby's father."
