A year later…

It was the moment of glory. Mary could feel it in her blood as she watched the familiar process going again. But this time around, the process would have to be just right, or else she would need a new job very soon. A dozen scientists circled around computers, typing and monitoring endlessly as the large glass cylinder held a creature within, a male Elite. The red liquid bubble occasionally, but the small creature didn't even nudge. Everything was fine as she watched, not wanting anything to mess up.

Normally, most of the processes took over five years to complete. But Elites tend to be specifically asked for early birth, to skip the early education cycle. Early education meant that the new life would understand what a full Pokemon counter part would know at birth, and a little more at times. At first, it would a normal machine powered birth for a human, sometimes a Pokemon. But when the genetics are suppose to be final, they, the scientists, take control a bit and just hope it comes out right. Over the years, their skills have improved to where they can almost completely control the outcome. Normally, their creation is suppose to be born after just five years. But sometimes they are held back from the official "birth" until the education recording is done. Early birth has never proved to be a problem on their part, but parents tend to regret it.

"Mary, maim," one of the scientists got her attention, "It is ready."

"Good, do we have a report on the other one?" she asked someone in the circle, although she knew who to ask.

"Yes," someone behind the container replied, "They said that she'll be born shortly."

Mary didn't reply to that. Instead, she continued to watch the creature. "Begin birth process." The sound of slowing machines echoed through the room and her memory. When they stopped, she gave another command, "Begin drainage." The red liquid began to drain through drainers at the bottom. With most of the liquid gone, their results were visible.

Curled up in a ball, a pure white creature was apparently asleep. Long arms was bent back, looking as if to hold the head. The legs were curled in to cover most of its face. The neck was barely longer than normal, but it was hardly noticeable. On the back, five dark blue plates laid rested on each side. A tail came out of the tail bone and went around the bottom half of the body in between the legs. The tail had two same colored blue spikes at the end with the white normal one still in the middle. The back of the head had one white spike going back with two dark blue ones on the sides. The blue spikes visibly went where the eyes were suppose to go. It was a success.

"I'll go ahead and take him," Mary grabbed a blanket for the small creature. The new family was in the waiting room, waiting for their new arrival. With the creature still sleeping while covered in the blanket, Mary took him through the hallway she had walk many times. This time though, she didn't have to go to the doctor's room.

While heading to the parent, the creature moved itself, surprising it could sleep right after being born. Did they actually sleep? She didn't think about it and just continued her required job. The walk to the end was crowded this time, even if it wasn't much. It was a school field trip with two or three classes. Other than their guide (almost no non-employees could go through without a guide with them everywhere) there was three adults and the rest were little kids. It was starting to become real common to see them. The company was trying its best for the public to be aware of their actions.

"Through these rooms are where we keep them until they are ready," the guide said to the group, trying her best to constantly smile to them. Thankfully, she didn't give attention to Mary, who needed to get going. If she got the attention, she could be held back for too long.

Just up ahead and about a minute, the two made it to the end of the hall. The creature was still asleep in a little ball, breathing softly still. Mary opened the door to be in a white room with a window looking over a group of people, either fidgeting with their fingers or reading a magazine. No one noticed her since the glass was only one way, a good way to make sure everyone didn't crowd around and perhaps reveal something the family doesn't want known entirely. "Alexander," she called into a microphone on the left of the window. A man, fairly short and large and in an expensive business suit, put down a magazine he was reading and got up. He went through a door on the left to see Mary with the baby creature.

"Was everything fine?" he whispered, noticing the creature wasn't looking around or crying like they usually do.

"No, he was actually asleep. It's a rare case, usually a good one, but he should wake up eventually today," Mary said as she handed Mr. Alexander new child, "When he does wake up, he may not cry. I always get comments that the ones who don't cry never do when they wake up after birth."

"Does anything out of normal happen?" the Alexander asked, feeling cautious about the idea.

"No, if anything, they seem to mature sooner than others," Mary stated.

The man just nodded with a, "Good."

"But other than that," Mary started to think if she needed to say something, "Everything you will need to know should be in the booklet. Otherwise, you already know what to do, right?" The man just nodded. "Alright, that should be it. Paper works have already been finished in advance, you're free to go."

The man turned to the door he came in to leave. Mary opened it while he went out with his hands full. But once outside, he pulled part of the blanket over the creatures head to cover up most of it from careless eyes. He didn't want a lot of people to know about this yet, not now.

Outside, the sudden warmth of summer made the creature shudder and open from its ball a bit. On the street that appear broken to the man, a black limo pulled up. He didn't stop, he just walked up to it. Another man in a black tuxedo walked up to the door and opened to him. Alexander didn't say anything, he just got in and let the door close behind him. With the man who opened and closed the door in the passenger seat at the front, the limo drove off.
