Dr. Spence POV
I decide to use my seniority benefits to work on a personal project. I want to see if human sperm, and a martian egg can conceive a child. I have already procured the sperm all I need now is the egg, which should be arriving any minute now. Within minutes the egg arrives, and I head off to the unused lab to start.
Normal POV
Cadmas is buzzing with activity while Dr. Spence is locked away in the lab she uses for her personal projects. It is in her contract that she can use company resources for personal projects for a reduction in salary. Dr. Spence uses an artificial uterus that is used for breeding genomorphs. Dr. Spence makes sure the uterus is disconnected, and shielded from the network. Having done this proceeds with the experiment. She injects the sperm into the egg, and puts the fertilized egg in the uterus to grow.
Dr. Spence has been monitoring the project for weeks, and the embryo is developing nicely. The more Dr. Spence watches the baby grow to more she wonders what she will do with it when it is born. The more this problem runs through her mind the more frustrated she becomes. Dr. Spence comes to the decision that the best course of action would be to give he or she to the father with proof of paternity so the child will be accepted. Dr. Spence walks over to the table with the sample containers, and reads the labels which say: Male; Bruce Wayne Female; M'gann M'orzz
She watches the baby's growth day after day, week after week, and month after month till the baby is ready to be born. Dr. Spence supervises the artificial birth of a beautiful baby girl. She cleans her off, and wraps her in a blanket she made herself. Dr. Spence printed out all the material on the child. Once that is finished she picks up the baby, and heads out the of the lab toward the secret exit. She makes it out of the facility in one piece, and makes her way to Gotham.
After several bus rides Dr. Spence made it to Gotham. The first thing she does is take a train to the stop closest to Wayne manor. She arrives at Wayne manor, walks up to the front step, and puts the baby down having tucked the child's material into the blanket. With that done Dr. Spence leaves Wayne manor, and returns to Washington D.C. to resume work.
Bruce Wayne is about to head to the office when Alfred walks in saying.
"This just arrived for you sir." Alfred
"What is it Alfred?" Bruce
"You might want to see for yourself sir." Alfred
Bruce turns around, and sees a baby sleeping in Alfred's arms. He walks over to Alfred, and says.
"What is this Alfred?" Bruce
Alfred hands Bruce the papers. Bruce reads them, and is shocked by their contents. He puts the papers on the desk, and takes the baby from Alfred. The baby wakes up, but doesn't start crying. Instead she looks Bruce in the eyes, and snuggles into him falling back to sleep. Bruce smiles. He is glad his daughter likes him. Bruce and Alfred walk out of Bruce's study. While they are walking down the hallway Bruce asks Alfred.
"What am I going to tell Dick when he gets home from school? He has only been here a month this is sure to come as a shock to him." Bruce
"Master Dick will be fine. He will probably be excited to have a little sister." Alfred
"You're probably right Alfred." Bruce
Bruce has Alfred convert the bedroom right next to his into a nursery for his daughter, which he still has yet to name. While the work is going on Bruce takes care of his little girl who he has named Samantha.
Three O'clock rolls around, the nursery is finally finished, and Samantha has just woken up from her nap. Bruce picked her up, and went to the living room to wait for Dick to return. Dick walks into living room to see Bruce standing in front the fireplace with his back to him which instantly made him suspicious. Before Dick could say anything Bruce says.
"Have a seat Dick." Bruce
"Is there something wrong Bruce?" Dick
"Everything is fine Dick." Bruce
"Then what is going on?" Dick
"Dick how do you feel about having a sibling?" Bruce
"I have always wanted a brother or sister, but my parents died before they could have anymore children." Dick
"That's good to hear, because something has happened." Bruce
Bruce turns around, Dick sees the baby in Bruce's arms, and says.
"Who is that?" Dick
"This is my daughter." Bruce
"What how did that happen? You don't even have a girl friend." Dick
Alfred hands Dick the papers, he reads them, and is just as shocked as Bruce. Dick goes up to Bruce, and says.
"May I hold her?" Dick
Bruce nods, and hands Samantha to Dick. Dick looks at her. 'She is so beautiful, but why are her eyes red instead of blue?' Dick looks at Bruce, and asks.
"Why does she have red eyes instead of blue? She is a half martian isn't she?" Dick
"No she is pure martian. Something happened during the artificial conception that caused my DNA to only alter her appearance. She is still my daughter none the less." Bruce
Dick nods, and continues holding her until the two of them hear crying in their heads. Samantha's stomach starts growling making Dick cackle with amusement. He asks Bruce.
"Where is her bottle? I would like to feed her." Dick
"Samantha's bottle is in the nursery. Alfred will fix it for you. The nursery is the bedroom right next to mine." Bruce
Dick nods, and heads off in that direction. Grinning from ear to ear; He finally has a sister this makes him very happy. Dick feeds, burps, and changes Samantha while walking back to Bruce he realizes that he now has someone to protect. They arrive in the living room where Dick starts playing with Samantha. She makes the most adorable happy noises in Dicks head. He doesn't mind the telepathic communication. For one it is much less noisy, and Bruce is working in his office.
Bruce walks into the living room, and sees the children playing happily. A content smile spreads across his face. The instant Samantha sees him she makes noises begging to be picked up. Bruce walks up to her, and picks her up saying.
"Come to daddy Samantha." Bruce
Dick starts laughing at what Bruce just said, but immediately stops when Bruce glares at him. The three spend the rest of the evening enjoying time together as a family. Alfred walks into the living room, and says.
"Dinner is ready sir." Alfred
Fortunately by this time Samantha is getting sleepy frequently dozing off. Bruce takes her to the nursery, and puts it her to bed. Then walks to the dining room for dinner.
The next morning everyone in the house wakes up bright, and early. Bruce tends to Samantha while Dick gets ready for school. Alfred is cooking breakfast. Everything is going well in the Wayne house hold until there is a knock at the door. Having finished breakfast preparations Alfred opens the door, and says.
"Master Bruce is busy at the moment Mr. Kent. This visit will have to be rescheduled for another time I'm afraid." Alfred
"It's okay Alfred. He can come in." Dick
"Certainly Master Dick. Right this way Mr. Kent." Alfred
Clark follows Alfred into the living room, but stops when he hears two heart beats instead of one in the room. He sees Bruce sitting on the couch with a bundle in his arms. He immediately realizes what Bruce is holding. Confusion fills his mind. Before he can say anything Bruce says.
"Come, and sit down Clark." Bruce
Clark sits down quietly to dumbfounded to say anything. Bruce notices this, and asks.
"Why are you here Clark?" Bruce
"I came to invite you to the dinner party Lois and I are throwing this Saturday. It's a family event so you won't need to worry about babysitting for your children. Speaking of which since when do you have a baby?" Clark
"Since yesterday." Bruce
"Alfred please retrieve the papers from the nursery." Bruce
"Certainly sir." Alfred
Alfred goes to get the papers as ordered while Bruce and Clark sit in a somewhat comfortable silence. When Alfred returns he hands the papers to Clark who reads them. When he finishes going through the documents he is just as astonished as everyone else has been after reading them. Samantha notices the tension, and decides to take matters into her own tiny hands. She flies over to Clark, and starts asking for attention. A smile quickly spreads over Clark's face, and he plucks Samantha right out of the air. She immediately starts giggling in Clark's head when he starts making funny faces at her. They go on like this for a while, and Bruce says.
"I'm glad you two are getting along so well. Now what were you saying about a dinner party this Saturday?" Bruce
"Right the party starts at 5:00pm, but you can be there early if you want. Just make sure that you call ahead if your going to be early. Casual attire only. Well I hope to see you there Bruce." Clark
Clark hands Samantha back to Bruce, and leaves without another word. He is still processing everything he found out during what was supposed to be a simple visit.
Alfred walked into the living room, and said.
"That was a rather unexpected, and short visit. Might I inquire what it was pertaining?" Alfred
"Dick, Samantha, and I are going to a dinner party at Clark's this Saturday." Bruce
"What time should I expect you back sir?" Alfred
"Late. We will call if we can't make it home till the following morning." Bruce
"If that should happen I'll make alternate arrangements for the protection of the city." Alfred
"Thanks Alfred." Bruce
Just as Bruce finishes saying this Dick walks into the room, and Samantha decides to have some fun at her brothers expense. She telekineticly picks him up, and starts spinning him in mid air. Bruce and Alfred start chuckling very mirthfully. Dick scowls at them as soon as he is put on the ground. Alfred walks Dick to the car to take him to school amusement still evident on his face.
The Wayne house settled into a routine, and the party came and went soon years came and went now Samantha has grown up. She is currently visiting her brother in Blood Haven. Her boredom gets the best of her so she walks up to her brother, and says.
"Ricky I'm bored." Samantha
"What do you want to do about it Sammie?" Richard
"I want to go on an exciting adventure." Samantha
"Well you would practically have to go to another dimension for something like that." Richard
"Ricky you're a genius." Samantha
"I know I am. What was my genius idea again?" Richard
"Ricky I want to go to another dimension on an adventure." Samantha
"Tricky, but do able." Richard
"Oh Thank you so much Ricky." Samantha
"Your welcome Sammie. Meet me in my cave in four hours. Oh, and don't forget your training session with J'ohn." Richard
"I won't. Thank you so much big brother." Samantha
Samantha went to her to training session with a little extra spring in her step that is quite noticeable. J'ohn raises his eyebrow in curiosity. He reads her mind, and is quite shocked by her plans to relocate to an alternate dimension. Samantha sits down next to her mentor, and they start the lesson. They take two extra hours in their lesson since J'ohn is aware that this is probably going to be her last for awhile. Four hours have past since the beginning of the lesson, and Samantha starts freaking out saying.
"I'm late, I'm late, I'm very much late." Samantha
"You did very well on your flying, and camouflage exercises. You will make it to your meeting on time." J'ohn
"Thanks so much J'ohn." Samantha
J'ohn nods at her, and she leaves the room. Samantha flies into her big brother's cave just as he is putting the finishing touches on the device that will take her to her destination. He looks at her, and says.
"Got everything you need for the trip Sammie?" Richard
"The lesson went extra long today so I didn't have time to pack." Samantha
"I thought this might happen. So I packed your stuff for you in your new state of the art utility belt; On top of all the standard bat gear, your personal effects, and supplies for your journey have been packed." Richard
"Thanks so much Ricky. You're the best brother ever." Samantha
"I know. Now lets get started before Daddy Bats catches on to what we're up to." Richard
They both wince at the thought of what would happen if he found out, and they vow not to let that happen. Richard pulls up a roster of all the different dimensions they know about, and Samantha starts looking through them. She comes across one that is the exact opposite of her home, and decides to go there. She points at it, and says.
"Ricky I want go here." Samantha
"I don't know Sammie. That dimension is pretty dangerous. Are sure you can handle it?" Richard
"I can handle it Ricky. Even though I may not actively be a hero I am every bit as much a member of this clan as you are." Samantha
"Okay then I'll program it into the Displacer, and you're good to go." Richard
Samantha nods, Richard does all he needs to do, hugs her, hands her the Displacer, and says.
"Be safe, and happy Sammie." Richard
"I will Ricky. See ya when I see ya." Samantha
Richard waves as she presses the button, and in a blink she is gone.
Samantha wakes up in a clearing, and her training takes effect. It doesn't take long for her to realize that she made it to her destination. So she begins looking for shelter. She finds a hut that has been thoroughly abandoned, and is in need of repair. Samantha fixes it up good as new, and settles into her new place finding it satisfactory for her new home. She spends the rest of the day learning everything there is to know about the surrounding area for a four mile radius. By night fall she has everything memorized right down to the mental signatures of the people living here. Samantha goes into her hut, and goes to sleep hoping that something exiting will happen tomorrow. Morning comes, and a villager stumbles across Samantha's hut while he is out hunting. She is just starting the day when she detects someone outside her hut. She ensures her appearance is satisfactory, and will not scare whoever it is. Once outside Samantha looks at the man on her door step, and says.
"Who are you, and what are you doing outside of my home?" Samantha
"Sorry miss I didn't realize that anyone was living here. My hunting party, and I are getting food for our village. We won't cause you any trouble. Ye be warned there are Yokai in this forest it is not safe for anyone to be living out here especially a woman. If you are smart you'll come back to the village with us, and forget all about this unsafe hut you are currently living in." villager
"I appreciate your concern, but I will be fine where I am thank you." Samantha
"Have it your way good luck miss." villager
