Chapter 3: Clarissa and Nicky's New Child

At O-Town High School, it was lunchtime. In the cafeteria, sitting at a table, having lunch, are Clarissa (who's 9 months pregnant), Nicky and a 15-year-old grey rabbit girl with blonde hair and hazel eyes, who's wearing a light green short-sleeved dress, white socks and black slip-on shoes. Clarissa turned 16 several days ago while Nicky turned the same age as her seven months ago. Also, due to her pregnancy, Clarissa has been craving sandwiches so she's having a cheese sandwich for lunch.

"How's your first day of high school, Sunny?" asked Clarissa.

"Very good, thanks," replied Sunny. "How's the baby?"

"It's doing fine," answered Clarissa. "I'm already nine months into my pregnancy."

"It looks like it'll be due any day now," said Nicky.

"Mmm-hmm," Clarissa agreed, nodding in agreement.

Clarissa was about to have another bite of her sandwich when she felt a pain in her stomach.

"Are you okay?" asked Nicky.

"Yeah, I think it's just indigestion," replied Clarissa.

"I'll tell you what," said Nicky. "Why don't you leave your lunch and just talk to us while we finish ours."

"Okay," said Clarissa.

Later, the school bell rang and it was home time. Clarissa came out of the classroom, went over to her locker, opened it and put her stuff in her backpack, while ignoring her stomach pains at the same time. Just then, Sunny appeared.

"How are you feeling?" asked Sunny.

"Not better," replied Clarissa.

"Don't worry, it's home time now. You can get some rest when you go home."

"Yeah, I think I most definitely need to-"

Clarissa couldn't finish her sentence as she felt a severe pain in her stomach. She clutched her stomach, fell to her knees and screamed so loud that every teacher and student in the school stopped what they're doing and turned to the source of the noise. Several students ran up to Clarissa and Sunny, including Nicky.

"Clarissa, are you alright?" asked Nicky.

Nicky and Sunny get a shock when they see a puddle of water forming beneath Clarissa's knees.

"Clarissa, your water broke!" gasped Sunny. "Does that mean…?"

"Yes…I'm going into labour…" Clarissa winced in pain.

"Oh no!" exclaimed Nicky. "Why didn't you tell us you were going into labour when your contractions started?"

"I thought it was just indigestion," replied Clarissa.

"How far apart are your contractions?" asked Nicky.

"About four minutes," answered Clarissa, as she felt another contraction.

"Oh my gosh!" gasped Nicky. "There isn't much time of labour left! Sunny, remind the principal!"

"I'm on it, bro," said Sunny.

Sunny ran to the door of the principal's office and knocked on it.

"Come in," called the principal.

Sunny opened the door and went into the room.

"Hello, Sunny," greeted the principal. "Do you need anything?"

"Principal Scott, it's an emergency!" said Sunny. "Clarissa's about to have her baby!"

"Oh my heavens!" exclaimed Principal Scott. "I better call the hospital!"

A few minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the school. A few paramedics rushed in with a trolley, including Mrs. Rabbitson.

"Clarissa, are you okay?" asked Mrs. Rabbitson.

"It hurts!" Clarissa wailed, in the middle of her contraction.

"It's okay," said Mrs. Rabbitson. "We're going to bring you to the hospital."

Clarissa was lifted onto the trolley.

"Mrs. Rabbitson, can I come?" asked Nicky.

"Sure you can," replied Mrs. Rabbitson.

Clarissa was rushed into the back of the ambulance and the paramedics, Mrs. Rabbitson and Nicky got into it. The doors were closed and ambulance drove off as the sirens wailed.

"Are you okay?" asked Mrs. Rabbitson.

"Ow, I feel like my body's being ripped apart," Clarissa whined.

"Let me check how far along are you," said Mrs. Rabbitson.

Clarissa took deep breaths as she held Nicky's hand.

"I won't leave your side, Clarissa," said Nicky.

Clarissa gave Nicky a relieved smile.

"You're never going to believe this," Mrs. Rabbitson told. "You're 8cm apart."

"I hope we get to the hospital soon," said Nicky.

A few minutes later, the ambulance arrived at O-Town Hospital and parked outside the emergency unit. Clarissa's legs are spread and there was a blue sheet over her lower torso.

"How far along am I?" asked Clarissa.

Clarissa felt another contraction and took deep breaths while her mother checked.

"Clarissa…I'm afraid you're fully dilated," said Mrs. Rabbitson.

"Does that mean I have to give birth in back of the ambulance?" wondered Clarissa.

"I'm afraid so," said Mrs. Rabbitson.

Mrs. Rabbitson got out her communicator.

"We have a Code Stork in the back of the ambulance in the emergency unit parking lot," Mrs. Rabbitson reminded into the communicator. "I repeat, we have a Code Stork in the back of the ambulance in the emergency unit parking lot."

Inside the hospital, everything was fine when suddenly, an alarm went off and the red emergency light started flashing on and off.

"Code Stork, Code Stork, Code Stork," a woman over the PA announced.

"We have a Code Stork," a paramedic said.

A few paramedics ran outside.

Back in the ambulance, Clarissa was sitting up, ready to have her baby. But she's also overwhelmed with pain. A paramedic was applying a wet cold washcloth to her sweaty forehead.

"Okay, Clarissa, are you ready?" questioned Mrs. Rabbitson.

Clarissa nodded nervously.

"Now when I say "Go", give a big push, okay?" said Mrs. Rabbitson. "One, two, three, four, go!"

Clarissa pushes and screams in pain as a contraction overwhelmed her.

"Oh! My! God!" Clarissa screamed.

"Give another push," said Mrs. Rabbitson. "This baby's coming out fast."

With sweat pouring down her face, Clarissa obeyed and screamed again while holding Nicky's hand.

"The head's out, let me just clean its nose out," reminded Mrs. Rabbitson, after a minute of pushing.

"How much longer am I doing this?" asked Clarissa.

"Just a couple more pushes left," replied Mrs. Rabbitson. "Push again!"

"Oh, the pain!" moaned Clarissa, as she pushed again.

"You've only got one more push to do," reminded Mrs. Rabbitson. "Then your child will be born. Push!"

Clarissa gives a push, letting out a yell. Then, a baby was heard screaming.

"It's a girl," announced Mrs. Rabbitson, as she placed the baby on Clarissa's chest.

The paramedics clapped as the baby was wrapped into a blanket.

"You did it, Clarissa," said Nicky. "I'm so proud of you."

"Here's our new daughter, Nicky," said Clarissa.

The baby, who looked like her mother, minus her navy blue hair streak, looked at Clarissa and gave a little smile.

"Hello, I'm your mother," Clarissa greeted her new daughter. "And this is your father. Welcome to the world, little princess."

Clarissa and Nicky marvel over their baby.

Yes! Clarissa finally had her baby! And now she and Nicky are parents! Final chapter's going to be here soon!
