Leon walked back into the room. "What was that about?" Sierra asked.
"Nothing, Blissey just wanted to ask about my mission." Leon said.
"You're lying. I can tell." Sierra responded.
"It's nothing, really." Leon insisted.
"Fine, you can tell me when you're ready." Sierra said as she lay back in the bed.
Blissey walked in after a few. "Sierra, you can leave at any time, but try to get here in time to lay the egg. I want to make sure it's healthy."
"I'll make sure she does." Leon said.
"Lets go." Sierra said. She got up off the bed, but held onto the end of the bed. She was still a bit dizzy.
"Let me help you." Leon said. He grabbed her arm and put it over her shoulder.
It was a quite walk home, but it wouldn't stay quite for long. Just as Leon opened the front door to his house, a Gallade ran up to Leon.
"The last wave of dragons is almost here. I'll help you out since I heard Sierra wasn't feeling too well." The Gallade said.
"Thanks Luna." Sierra walked inside with Leon's help.
"Master Sierra, are you alright?" Yuna walked in from the kitchen. This time, she wore a pink dress.
"I'm fine, Yuna. I'm just pregnant, that's all." Sierra took a seat on the couch.
"Pregnant. That's wonderful, but who is the father?" Yuna asked.
"I am." Leon responded.
"I didn't think the two of you could have any children. Not with Leon being human." Yuna tilted her head.
"It surprised me too." Leon responded. "Where are the others?" Leon asked.
"Madam Sinfire is the backyard setting up the last few tents. April and Millie are resting upstairs, they've been working hard all day getting supplies. As for Yumi, she is cooking dinner." Yuna said.
"Yumi? She told me that she was busy at the docks getting the rest of the water nests ready." Luna said.
"Not your twin sister, Luna. The Yumi that Yuna is talking about is her twin sister." Leon said.
"Your twin sister is named Yumi too?" Luna asked.
"Yep." Yuna said nodding her head. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go help my sister with dinner." Yuna turned and headed back into the kitchen while Leon helped Sierra over to the couch.
"Thanks Leon." Sierra said as she took a seat.
"No problem." Leon as the phone began to ring. Leon walked over and answered it hitting the speaker button. "Hello?"
"What is with you?" Alexia shouted. "You do not leave a meeting without warning."
"First off, I wasn't even in that meeting. Secondly, Blissey called saying that my wife was in the Pokemon center. And before you say anything else, I'm taking a month off." Leon said.
"Wrong." Alexia shouted.
"I've already memorized my SSS benefits. I'm allowed eight months off every five years. I can take them at anytime, and I choose to spend a month of it now." Leon said.
"You've been reassigned to the Indigo Plateau for missions, a requirement to keep that SSS rank." Alexia countered.
"Don't argue with me about me taking a month off or I'll tell Mewtwo about that whole incident last year." Leon threatened.
"You wouldn't." Alexia voice had gone from demanding and angry to surprised and fearful.
"I would, now, do I get my time off. After that, depending on what's happening here, I'll get right on those missions." Leon said.
"I'll inform the others about your time off." Alexia hung up the phone.
"What was that about?" Luna asked.
"I walked out on a meeting at the Indigo Plateau." Leon said.
"Not that, I mean the incident?" Luna said.
"Just between us, Alexia got drunk one night and I stopped her from marring some human bartender. Almost lost my hand for it at first, but she thanked me later. That's pretty much the short version." Leon said.
"I see why she took you seriously. Mewtwo hates humans." Luna said.
"That he does. He doesn't mind Morphites because of how we are similar in nature." Leon said.
"I'm tired." Sierra yawned. "This is gonna be the first mating run I've missed since I moved here." Sierra lay back on the couch.
"I'm gonna stay and talk with my wife. We have a lot of things to discuss." Leon said as Sinfire walked in.
"So, what's wrong?" Sinfire asked.
"I'm pregnant." Sierra responded.
"Pregnant?" Sinfire asked.
"Why must everyone question that fact?" Sierra asked.
"Because logically, its not possible." Sinfire stated. "Anyway, I just got the last of the tents up. The weather report has once again predicted rain, so I gave each of the tents a little bit of extra padding on the bottom." Sinfire said.
"I'm sure that they'll be thankful for it." Sierra said.
"I don't know about you but personally, I've had enough rain. I want some sunshine." Sinfire whined.
"I know the feeling. It has rained a lot this year." Leon said.
"I wouldn't mind a trip to Johto sometime soon." Sierra said.
"That can wait until after you lay that egg." Leon said pointing to Sierra's stomach.
"Come on, let's head up stairs so we can talk in peace." Leon said. Leon helped Sierra up and walked to their room. Leon shut the door after setting Sierra down.
"I've got about 140,000 credits in my account plus whatever that is in that one check for the warsuit which should show up a few days." Leon said.
"I was thinking of adding another few rooms to the house. We can use one of the guest rooms for the nursery right now though." Sierra said.
"I was thinking of moving inland some. Move closer to one of the larger cities." Leon said.
"I'm not moving inland." Sierra said. "I love it right here next to the ocean."
"I knew you'd say that." Leon said.
There was a knock at the door. "The dragons are here." Luna said. "And there is someone who wants to see you."
"Who?" Leon asked.
"Wouldn't give her name." Luna said.
"Well, I guess I'd better go meet her." Leon said. "I'll be back in a few."
Leon headed down stairs. A Latias was laying by the couch.
"Star?" Leon was surprised to say the least.
"Leon." Star shouted, her voice full of happiness. She quickly flew over to Leon's side.
"What are you doing here?" Leon asked.
"I've found a mate. I agreed to run the mating run with him this year." Star cheered.
"It seems like everyone is finding mates this year. Sally and Andrew, William and Jessica, and now you." Leon said.
"He asked me to meet him here." Star said. "I'd thought I stop and tell you before I meet with him. Say, where's Sierra?" Star asked looking around.
"She's a little under the weather." Leon replied.
"What's wrong?" Star asked.
"Pregnancy." Leon said. "And yes, I'm the father."
"I'd knew you'd do it someday Leon." Star congratulated Leon.
"You're the first pokemon or human who actually didn't question that fact." Leon stated.
"What's so hard to believe about that?" Star asked. "Pokemon don't have to mate with their unique species to breed. Take me for example. My mother was Latias while me father was a Dragonite."
"That's right, so where is this mate of yours at?" Leon asked.
"I haven't seen him yet, but it's early." Star said.
"Alright. I take it your brother, Eric is guarding the Soul Dew." Leon asked.
"Him and his wife." Star replied.
"Wife? When did this happen?" Leon tilted his head in confusion. "I never saw him as one to just settle down."
"Who said he settled down." Star said. "Once I get back to Altomare, they'll take off again."
"Who did he marry?" Leon asked.
"He married a Altaria by the name of Julie. I'm not sure when they got married because he went off traveling for a years and he came back with her as his wife." Star said.
"Do they have any kids yet?" Leon asked.
"She just laid two eggs before I left to come here." Star said.
"That's good." Leon said, as there was a knock on the door. Leon walked over and answered it. "Hello?"
"I was told to stop by this house to await my mate. She said she was good friends with the owner." A Flygon said.
"Hector." Star shouted as she flew over.
"Star." The Flygon flew over to Star and caught her in mid air.
"If you'll excuse me, I'll be heading upstairs. Luna will give the two of tent for the night." Leon headed back upstairs.
"What was that all about?" Sierra asked as Leon walked in.
"Star has some good news. She found a mate, a Flygon by the name of Hector." Leon said.
"So Eric is gaurding the Soul Dew then." Sierra said.
"Eric and Julie, his wife. According to Star, Julie just laid two eggs before she came up here to meet with Hector." Leon said. He sat down next to Sierra.
"I never thought Eric would settle down." Sierra said.
"Star said when she gets back, Eric and Julie were planning on taking off again." Leon said. "Now then back to the topic we were on before we interrupted. Do you have any ideas on names?" Leon asked.

Leon and Sierra spent most of the night coming up with names and ideas on how to deal with their new child, finally around midnight they fell asleep.
Once again, Leon spent the night tossing and turning. He was looking out a window at earth. He looked around the room he was in. It was on fire with black flames, a sure sign that the fusion cells were leaking. Slowly, the Earth was coming closer. A human charged in with a weapon. She aimed and fired at Leon. The black color of her eyes told Leon that she had been exposed to the Fusion radiation too long and had lost her mind. Leon charged forward and snapped her neck. Leon charged down hall after hall, each looking worse then the last. He fought human and pokemon alike trying to get to the control room. A warning siren sounded. Leon looked at the screens, A missile was headed for the space station. A large red R was printed on the side of the weapon. It struck the station. The last thing Leon recalled before jolting out of bed was a wave of fire traveling down the hall toward himself.
Leon awoke with start. His breathing was heavy. He looked around his surroundings. It was dark. Sierra stirred as Leon jumped out of bed, but she did not wake. Leon looked at his wife. 'She is so peaceful when she is sleeping.' Leon thought. He looked toward her stomach. It had grown at least an eight of an inch over night. Leon opened the curtain to the window. The sun was just starting to rise. A light mist hung over the surrounding area, most likely from the calm storms of late last night.
"I hope that was just a dream." Leon said. He looked outside. All was quite. Leon looked toward the sky. The moon was still bright.
Leon sat down in a recliner. He closed his eyes and began to think of all the changes that he would have to make once his child had hatched. As the sun rose higher over the edge of the horizon, his thoughts turned toward himself. What if he died? This was never a concern before. Both Sierra and himself always knew that could happen and they knew that Sierra would survive. She had connections. Now, Leon had to think about what his child would be and how they would be affected if he died. If the child was a pre blood pokemon, there was nothing to worry about, the rest of the pokemon society would gladly accept him or her. But if they were a morphite, there is no telling how the rest of the world may take it. They might accept the child or refuse it. He had captured the parents of children before. He knew that they always had a rough time accepting loss. Until know, he didn't think much of it.
The tents outside began to stir. Dragon pokemon of various sizes and shaped exited the tents. They would leave as one large group now they were together. The sun was just over the horizen. The last of the tents opened. Hector and Star were elected to lead the group this time. Hector had run the course many a time, but this new for Star. Leon just watched as the group of dragons took flight. Just like always, they could leave the tents alone knowing that others would take care of it.
Sierra began to once again stir and light slowly entered the room. She buried her face underneath a pillow to block out the light. "Turn out that light." Sierra said softly.
Leon closed the curtains. "Morning." Leon said just as softly.
"Its morning already?" Sierra said. "Then why do I feel so tired?"
"That egg will take a lot out of you." Leon replied. "It's grown a lot over last night."
Sierra uncovered her head and looked at her stomach. "It's growing fast." Sierra said.
"Can I get you something to eat? I'm sure there are some stuffed night berries left." Leon offered.
"I'll take a few." Sierra said as she got up. Her eyes showed just how tired she was.
Leon walked downstairs toward the kicthen. He opened the fridge and picked up the bowel of stuffed night berries. He also picked out a carton of orange juice and a pair of cups. Leon then headed back upstairs.
"Here ya go." Leon passed Sierra the bowl of berries while he poured some juice into each cup.
"Thanks." Sierra bit into one of the berries.
"And heres a cup of juice." Leon offered the cup. Sierra grabbed it and took a sip.
Leon and Sierra ate their breakfast slowly. Leon had a few berries, while Sierra ate most of the bowl.
"That egg is gonna take a lot out of you." Leon said.
"I know." Sierra said faking a smile. She wasn't her normal self. She was tired, slow, and not so cheery. Leon knew she might act this until she laid the egg. That was part of the reason why he took a month off.
