Chapter 4: Delivery

"It time." Liz said.

They were just sitting around watching the television when Liz's water broke. Both Patti and Kid got up and ran to do what they knew they had to do, but they ended up running right into each other tumbling to the ground.

"Why is the floor wet?" Patti asked.

"Never mind that." Liz told them. "Patti go get my bag. Kid go call the Doctor."

Kid and Patti got up from the floor and did as they were instructed. Then after a hectic ride to the hospital they checked Liz in. Liz got a private room while they waited for her contractions to come closer together. Liz was really happy to find out that Stein wasn't going to be the one delivering the baby. They're friends hearing that the baby was coming gathered in the waiting room. They brought some basic gift, like Maka brought a giant teddy bear, Black Star brought balloons, Tsubaki brought a cake which people started to eat already.

As Kid was talking to the doctor Patti kept her sister company.

"So," Patti started. "I think you should make Maka the godmother."

"Huh?"

"Yeah, Maka is smart and nice should would be great. Kid wants Soul as the godfather and everyone knows that they'll get together sooner or later. Plus Maka's gotten a bit baby crazy since she found out you were having a baby."

"So you don't want to be godmother?"

"No, it's okay. I'm not too responsible but don't worry I'll make sure to spend plenty of time with your baby. I'm going to be a great aunt."

"Thanks Patti."

"Besides you only have to worry about godparents if something happen to you and Kid, both you are going to be around for a long time."

"Right. Patti do me a favor."

"Sure thing sis, what?"

"Kid's a little stressed right now, you know how get when he's stressed, his symmetry obsession get out of hand. Can you keep an eye on him when I'm not around?"

"Sure thing."

Liz took her sisters hand and smiled at her, then Liz went through a contraction and tightly squeezed her hand.

"Ow! Is this for me calling you fat?" Patti yelped.

"No, well maybe a little."

Kid was trying to make Tsubaki's cake symmetrical after the others stopped him from trying to make patients IV bags symmetrical.

Kid went to Liz in the room. "Okay honey, they're going to take to the delivery room now."

As the nurses started to push her away Liz said. "You're nervous, you only call me honey when you're trying not to sound nervous."

"I'm going to be a father, I have every right to be nervous."

Liz gave him a weak smile. "Well how do you think I feel?"

"I wish I could go with you."

"I know but you'd panic in a moment and try to make everything symmetrical. Kid I love you, remember that I love you." Liz told him as she was pushed into the delivery room.

"I love you too Liz." Kid said forced to let go of her hand.

As Kid stared at the door, his father walked up to him and placed his hand over his shoulder.

"Don't worry Kid it will be okay." He told his son.

Kid paced around the delivery room, Patti finished the cake. They tried to calm Kid but it didn't help that they could hear Liz's screams, frankly the screams were scaring everyone. After about an hour the doctor called in Stein that there was some unexpected complication and they needed helped.

Another hour passed before they were told anything. Stein came out and told something to Kid and without another word Kid ran into the delivery room with Stein following.

The others waited in the delivery and then heard Liz let out out a terrifying scream.

"Why is the delivery room so close to the waiting room?" Black Star asked freaked out by the screaming.

The screaming had stopped and there was an uneasy silence. Maka was trying to read a book as Soul was listing to music on his headphones when she noticed something about Lord Death.

"Sir," Maka started. "Are there some new cracks on your mask."

"I do think so." Lord Death commented.

Two new cracks formed on the mask, Kid would probably like them, one on each side of the mask perfectly symmetrical.

As they waited some of teachers showed up with their gifts.

Marie asked. "Any news yet?"

"No." Maka answered.

Then Stein stepped out and said in his usual deadpan fashion. "You're going to want to come in to see this."

The group moved into the room that they found Liz and Kid in. They entered the room and the first thing they saw filled them with surprise.

They found Kid holding a small baby bundled in a blanket, Liz meanwhile looked pale and tired but happy as she held in her arms another bundle.

"Wait what?" Patti asked confused.

"We have twins!" Kid said joyfully.

"You didn't know?" Tsubaki asked.

"No." Liz answered looking upon the bundle of joy in her arms.

"Well if you came to more your appointments we might have found out before and I wouldn't needed to be called in to deliver two shinigami babies."

"That's why you were so fat." Patti said.

"Yes." Liz glared at her sister and than back to her baby.

Kid sat down besides Liz on the bed.

Then Maka noticed something. "Why is one blanket blue and the other one pink?"

"Well they're not identical twins?" Kid admitted.

"They're fraternal twins." Liz explained. "One boy and one girl."

"So Kid," Soul asked. "You don't have any problem with your twins being asymmetrical."

"Why would I care? They're beautiful, they're perfect."

The others peered at the babies, they had bright green eyes and scruffy black hair, both of them had three white stripes around half their hair, the boy on the left side while the girl had them on the right.

"What are you going to name them?"Tsubaki asked delighted by the glow the parents had.

Kid smiled at his wife before turning to his friends. "We're going to name the girl Raven and we're going to name the boy Bram."

"But doesn't Bram mean raven in Gaelic." Maka pointed out.

"You named your kids after birds?" Patti questioned.

Liz explained. "Well we thought there was a certain symmetry in their names." Liz smiled at her husband.

"Well I think those are wonderful names." Lord Death as he started peer over to his grandchildren. Bram grabbed one of his large fingers. "Ah how cute."

Patti handed the little baby girl Raven a rattle, Raven grabbed it and stared at it trying to wrap her little mind over what this new thing was.

"So it looks like we're going to build another crib." Black Star pointed out.

"Yeah." Soul said clearly annoyed by the prospect.

Liz never gave anymore thought to the witches words, she just assumed that Mabaa just wanted to scare Liz away so that Lord Death would never know his grandchildren and maybe one day the school would never have someone to lead it but in the end she knew better and stayed with the one she loved. Right now all that Liz was thinking about her children and how lucky to be to have their first moments of life surrounded by people that loved them.


Authors Notes: I have the feeling some of you thought I was going to kill off Liz,seriously who what that? Anyway what did you think of the names I ended up going with for the babies? It seemed like Raven names was good considering they're death god and ravens are associated with death. Also I thought green eyes was good, Liz's eyes are blue and Kid's are amber yellow. Yes, I know that genetics does not work like that. Anyway tell me what you think by reviewing.
