I do not own any characters except for Micheal, Marilynn and the baby. Please review or I'll get Thrax to eat you. JK ^.^
Thrax never knew how powerful he could be as a vampire. He had strength, speed, and power over plenty of villains all over the world. Most importantly, he had a wonderful wife. Marilynn was miraculously pregnant with his child. At first, he didn't think she could have children, but they learned she was only a half-vampire and made it work.
Thrax watched his wife sleep. He rubbed her stomach and felt their child kick. He wondered what the baby of a virus and a vampire would look like. Marilynn's face flinched, obviously feeling the kick, even in sleep. He kissed her cheek and tried to rest. Not one hour later, he heard whimpers coming from Marilynn. He looked and her eyes were sqeezed shut and her teeth were clenched together, showing her fangs. She was in pain, which meant it was time for the baby to come out. He got to work to help Marilynn. During her pregnancy, he read everything he could about babies and pregnancy.
"Okay, baby, push." Thrax didn't need to tell her twice. Since a vampire's muscles are stronger, the baby slid right out. Thrax listened to the baby cry while he cut the cord and cleaned everything up. He then wrapped the baby in a blanket and gave Marilynn their newborn baby girl. As soon as she was in her mother's arms, her crying ceased and she looked up at her parents with little golden eyes. Thrax softly touched the wispy brown hair on her head and she looked around, looking for the source of the touch. They couldn't help but smile.
"Let's name her Ember." Marilynn said after a few minutes. Thrax nodded and noticed Marilynn looked tired.
"You should sleep. I'll watch her." Marilynn reluctantly agreed, but soon fell fast asleep. Thrax watched his little bundle of joy entertain herself. The lamp was still on, so he saw that her skin was like her mother's, but had a pinkish hue to it, especially on her cheeks. Little Ember kicked the air, finally free of her blanket and probably wondering why her feet weren't hitting anything. He looked around the room. It was the same house where they first met, but as soon as they found out Marilynn was pregnant, they cleaned everything up and fixed all the furniture. They even got new blankets and bought a few things the baby might need. Ember discovered her right foot and put it in her mouth. Thrax pulled it out of her mouth, but she put it back in. It was a fight between Dad and Baby: every time she put her foot in her mouth, he pulled it out. Eventually, she discovered she had a left foot and put that one in her mouth instead.
"You're smart, I'll give you that." He whispered to his daughter. "But you can't eat your foot." He pulled out a small teddy bear and gave it to her. She looked at it with her gold eyes and tried putting the bear's ear in her mouth. She made a face and looked like a dog that just ate peanut butter. Thrax pulled a hair out of her mouth and she stopped. She waved the bear around and Thrax saw that she was still naked. He quietly got up and looked in a drawer. He pulled out a pink baby bodysuit with a purple heart pattern and dressed Ember. By midnight, the bear waving had stopped and her eyelids got heavy. Before long, Ember was fast asleep.
