Author's Notes: (See "The New Kids". Some of the same crossovers, and a few new ones. The timeline is right in December.)
Odd, Ulrich, Yumi, Jeremie, and Aelita raced along the snow-covered sidewalk, with Raven floating behind them. Suddenly, she stopped in front of a pile of trash and old blankets. "What is it?" Yumi asked. Raven said nothing, but she quickly dug through the garbage, as if she were looking for something.
Yumi and the others instantly joined her. Suddenly, Odd pulled back a sheet, and instantly aimed his wrist at the pile. "Holy shit, what the hell?" he shouted, jumping back. Raven lifted the frozen thing from the pile and held it in her arms. "We need to get this to a hospital, now." she said firmly.
Odd and the others got a closer look, and they all stared in shock. "I'll meet you guys at home." Raven said, vanishing with the frozen package in her arms. "Oh my God." Ulrich said. "Who would do something like this?" Aelita asked. Jeremie shook his head. "I don't know." he said. "I had no idea." Odd said, shaking, but not from the cold. "It's hard to think that anyone would do that to a baby." Yumi said, sighing. The group looked at eachother, than they all ran to Odd's house, knowing that's where Raven would be.
"I transported the child to a local hospital. They'll call me if anything comes up." Raven said, a tear running down her cheek. Ulrich sat in a corner, stareing out the window, flicking his sword, while Odd and Jeremie both paced back and forth. Finally, after what felt like forever, the phone rang. "Hello?" Yumi asked. "Are you the one who brought in the baby with frostbite?" the doctor on the other end asked.
Yumi's hand shook as she handed the phone to Raven, then she sat next to Ulrich, who put his arm around her. Raven talked for several minutes to the doctor before she hung up the phone. "Well, what did they say?" Ulrich asked, his words mimicking everyone's thoughts. Raven sighed, then smiled.
"The baby is going to be just fine. They haven't been able to locate the baby's parents, so they want to know if we can take care of it." she said. "Sure, no problem." Odd said. "Wait, how did the baby get healed so quickly?" Yumi asked. Raven smiled at her. "Well, I kind of used my powers to help her along." she said. Yumi smiled back at her. "Good idea." she said.
One hour later...
Raven held the baby girl in her arms as she slept. "I can't believe it, you're mine, at least, for now." she said softly. The gang all had tears in their eyes as they looked at the child. "So, what should we name her?" Odd asked, smiling warmly at the baby. Everyone had a hard time thinking of a good name, so Raven instantly thought of one. "Anglea, after my mother." she said. Everyone looked at eachother and nodded in agreeement. "Well, I guess, Anglea it is then." Aelita said, smiling warmly.
Recap of the night.
Odd & Raven stayed up all night taking care of the baby. Then, Odd tried to go to school, and that's where the story continues...
Odd slept in class, but this time more than usual. Mrs. Hertz had dropped a book next to his head, and had gotten nothing. "Odd, are you feeling well?" she asked. Odd groaned as he raised his head. "Yes Yumi, sausages do grow on trees." he mumbled before falling back to sleep.
Mrs. Hertz sent Odd to the infermary, where he proceeded to catch up on the rest of his sleep. When he finally opened his eyes, he saw Raven standing over him. His eyes instantly shot open and he sat up. "Angela." he said, panic in his voice. "It's ok Odd, Yumi & Ulrich are watching her tonight." Raven said, putting her arm around him. "Has anyone found out who her parents are?" he asked.
Raven shook her head. "No, I haven't heard anything." she said. Odd and Raven just sat in the infermary, cuddling. Finally, after a few minutes, Raven broke the silence. "Odd, I've been thinking of something." she said. Odd sighed. "I'm listening, unwillingly." he said. "You know how the police can't seem to find out who Angela's parents are?" she asked. Odd nodded slowly. "Ok, well, what if we go out and find her parents?" she asked.
Odd's jaw dropped. "Are you nuts?!" he shouted. "No, I'm serious. I mean, Christmas is only three weeks away, so maybe this is someone's way of giving us a job to do, you know, like destiny." she said. "Oh yeah, and how are we going to get around?" Odd asked. "You do have feet, right?" she asked sarcastically. "I'm serious." Odd said. "So am I." Raven said sternly.
As if on cue, Sissy walked into the room. "I'm sorry, I couldn't help hearing your conversation." she said. Raven picked her up with one arm and pinned her aganist a wall. "How much did you hear?" she asked. "Every word." Sissy said. Raven put her down. "So, what are you going to do about it?" she asked.
Sissy grinned. "Why, help you guys, of course." she said. "Oh, that's great, WHAT?!" Odd shouted, suddenly realizing what Sissy had said. Sissy smiled at them. "Don't you know, I have connections." she said, pulling out her mobile phone. Both Odd and Raven tried to listen in on the conversation. "Hey Herb sweetie, it's Sissy. Yeah, I know you're really busy, but could you kind of help our friends out?" she asked.
After a few minutes, Sissy put her phone away. "He agreed. He said all he needs to do is find out what's going on through Jeremie, then he and him can get to work on their little gadgets." she said. Odd & Raven looked at eachother, than at Sissy. "Thanks." they said in unison. "Don't mention it." she said, walking away.
Four hours later...
Odd and Raven stood in Odd's house, listening to Jeremie's explination. "Ok, so I take it you guys understand?" he asked. "I got it." Raven said. "I still don't get it, Einstein." Odd said. "I'll explain the rest later." he said before clicking off.
The next day...
The gang met outside of the school, the baby wrapped in everything Raven could find. "So, let me get this straight. Herb and you came up with a supply pack, and Nicholas and Sissy worked together to book us a flight to America?!" Odd shouted. "Um, yep." Jeremie said. "We can meet up with the Titans when we get there, and use their computer to help locate Angela's mom & dad. The DNA scanners are 100 accurate." Raven explained. "Ok, everyone ready?" Ulrich asked.
Edge, Michael, and Anna looked at eachother, than at Ulrich. "You guys are fuckin' nuts." they said in unison, before they sat off walking, the gang beside them, everyone determined to locate the baby's parents.
