An Old Sorrow A New Hope
Chapter:13 Surprises
It was a bright June morning as Rachel woke. She looked over to Jennifer's side of their bed only to find it empty. She reached out with her mind to find her in the kitchen with Azalea. She smiled ant the thought of her fiancee and daughter. I wonder what they could be up to. She slowly got out of bed and crept down the stairs. When she got to the kitchen door she stopped and listened to what they were planning.
What if she gets mad? What if she doesn't want me anymore?
Your being crazy Jenn. Mom loves you she won't mad at you for wanting something.
How do you know she won't hate me? I mean it's not every day someone comes up to you and says. Hay let's have a baby.
You will only know if you ask her.
That's the part I'm worried about. I mean what if she doesn't want to have a baby with me. I don't think anyone would want to have a baby with an ex villain.
Look if you don't ask by the end of the day I'll tell her about this little discussion.
Ok I'll bring it up.
You don't have to. Said Rachel.
Azalea and Jennifer turned to face Rachel. How long have you been there?
Since what if she gets mad. Said Azalea.
Wait you knew she was there?
Yep. Now you don't have to worry about telling her. Mom's eavesdropping habits did it for you.
Jennifer turned to Rachel. Please don-
She was cut off by Rachel's lips on hers.
And that's my cue to get out of here before my fragile mind sees something that it can't unsee. I'll be at Titans tower if you guys need me.
Rachel and Jennifer watched as Azalea teleported away. Jennifer looked at Rachel. I guess we have some things to talk about.
Let's start with you thinking that I would be mad about you wanting a baby.
I thought that you would think that you weren't enough for me. That you would think that I wanted to go out and jump the first guy I saw. And that you would hate me for wanting a baby that wouldn't be yours.
Your wrong about two things. First I would never hate you for something like that. Rachel let the room sit in silence while her words settled.
And what is the second thing I got wrong?
We could have a baby together.
Jennifer was stunned by Rachel's words. What do you mean have a baby together?
Rachel face was flushed. I could use my powers to impregnate you with my genes.
How would it be done?
I would focus my powers on your womb and inplant you with my DNA. It could be done right here in the kitchen.
Why Ms. Roth your feeling frisky today. I mean having sex in the kitchen. What has gotten into you?
We don't have to have sex. All I have to do is place my hand over your womb.
Could you do it during sex?
Yes the emotions given off during sex would conception that much easier. It will also intensify the emotions.
Then we're going up stairs right now.
Ok but I have to ask. What makes you want a baby so bad?
I had a dream last night that I got pregnant. And I don't want that dream to fade. I want a second dream to come true.
Second. What's the first dream to come true. Said Rachel while walking up the stairs behind Jennifer.
Being with you. I've told you that I've had a crush on you since we first met.
Azalea was in the garage with Cyborg helping him update his baby AKA the T-car.
Could you hand me the fifteen millimeter wrench.
Sure here you go.
Thanks. So what's your mom and Jenn up to today.
I don't want to think about it.
They aren't fighting are they?
I think they're going to need a private day.
Why's that?
Jenn wants a baby. And I don't want to be there when my mom tells her that she can get her pregnant.
Cyborg hit his head on the hood when he jerked at the news. What? How's she going to do that? I mean they're both women.
Cy think for a minute. You've met my mom's dad.
Your right. He must've used his powers to impregnate your grandmother.
Yep demons can use their powers to procreate with other species.
How about we go take my baby for a test drive.
Sure. We can get Terra and Changeling and go out for Pizza my treat.
Are you sure about that? You've seen how much I eat.
Yes just let me change into my uniform and we can go.
I'll call Terra and Changeling and see if they can make it.
That was amazing. Said Jennifer.
Yes it was.
So when do you think we'll know if it worked.
I can already since the baby in your womb. You should start felling in in the next few weeks.
How can you since the baby already?
Because I used my powers I can since the baby. It's a way for demons to know if their mate is in danger.
I can't imagine Trigon caring for his mates.
Not all demons are like him. That's why he was forced my mother to conceive me. So I could open a portal to this dimension. The other demons were growing sick of his ways.
How many women did he force to have his children.
One for each of the seven deadly sins. Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride.
Witch one are you? No let me guess. Your Lust.
No I'm not Lust.
Then you have to be Envy.
Nope I'm not Envy either.
Well I know your not Greed or Gluttony. So that leaves Wrath and Pride. You can be wrathful but you have a lot of pride in yourself. Your Pride.
Yea I'm Pride. Come on let's get up and go get something to eat.
How about we go out for pizza.
Sure it'll be nice to have pizza without Cyborg and Changeling arguing about what to get on the pizza for once.
They got out of the bed and got dressed. Rachel was wearing a dark blue tank top and a pair of black jeans with her black combat boots. Jennifer had on a pink t shirt with the word lucky across the chest and a pink and black mini skirt and leggings that matched her skirt and pink and blue tennis shoes. They left the house and were near the pizza place when they hard.
Vegetarian.
No meat lovers.
Both of shut up right now? Said Azalea.
Rachel groaned I guess it was to much too much to ask for.
Why don't we crash the party? I'm sure Azalea would appreciate the help.
A grin grew across Rachel face as she reached out with her mind to tell Azalea and Terra to step away from the table. Azalea and Terra both left the table without Cyborg or Changeling noticing that they had left. Once the two were away from the table a bottle of barbecue sauce exploded covering both Cyborg and Changeling in it's contents.
Dude not cool Azalea.
It wasn't me.
They hard someone laughing from behind them. They all turned around to see Rachel and Jennifer. Rachel was doubled over with laughter. You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that.
Changeling looked at Rachel shocked to see her laugh. Oh so you think that's funny. Said Changeling picking up some of the sauce and throwing it at Rachel. The sauce never made it to her. Azalea opened a portal in front of her mother that sent the sauce into the back of his head.
You can't do that in a food fight.
Sit down or your sleeping on the couch tonight. Said Terra.
Yes ma'am. I won't do it again.
I thought the two of you would be locked you would be locked up in your bedroom today. Said Cyborg.
Azalea. You told them. Said Rachel and Jennifer in unison.
No only Cy.
Told us what? Asked Terra.
Jennifer leaned over and whispered in Rachel ear. Should we tell them?
Only if you want to she whispered back.
Jennifer thought for a moment and then said. I'm pregnant.
You mean Raven let you sleep with some guy. So who is the unlucky guy? Asked Changeling.
I'm the "unlucky guy". Said Rachel.
What how did you two? My brain hurts.
That's what you get for thinking. Said Azalea.
You remember Trigon. How do you think he impregnated Raven's mom? Asked Cyborg.
I thought he could change hi size or something.
He used hi powers to force my mother to conceive me. I did much the same with Jenn. Well except for the force part.
So your going to be a dad wait a mom no wait a daom.
Yes I'm going to be a father. And if you say one more word I do the same to Terra. While Rachel was say that she spoke with Terra and Jennifer with her mind. I'm not really going to do that. I just want him to shut his big mouth.
And I might let her. Said Terra. I mean if you keep pissing her off I'll have to stop her from killing you some how.
Azalea laughed out loud at the sight of Changeling turning a pale green. Don't worry Changeling she can't impregnate her.
And why is that? Asked Rachel.
You can't impregnate an already pregnant woman. Can you?
Terra looked at Azalea looked at Azalea. How did you know?
I thought there was something wrong with you when the two got here so I read your mind.
So I'm going to be a dad. Said Changeling with a big smile on his face.
Yes I didn't tell you because I thought I would lose this one to.
You won't lose this one. Said Azalea.
And how do you know that? Asked Terra
When I read your mind I saw the worry and what was causing it. So surrounded the baby with a magical barrier that will protect the baby from your powers and all but the strongest of blows.
Terra had tears running down her cheeks. Thank you she said as she hugged Azalea.
Don't thank me yet. You'll have to get me or my mom to change the magic as the baby grows and that will be painful. I'm sorry you'll have to fell the pain but it was the only way that I could think of to help you. Said Azalea looking down at her feet.
Don't you dare feel sorry for helping us. Said Changeling.
Yea you've given us the greatest gift anyone has ever given. Said Terra while hugging her.
Just out of curiosity how much pain are we talking about? Asked Cyborg.
If I had to put a number on it like they do at the hospital. It will be an eleven out of a possible ten. Said Rachel. There is a way to skip the pain. But the two of you will have to move into Titans tower. And so will we she said looking at Azalea and Jennifer.
What's the way your talking about? Asked Changeling.
I don't care I'll do it.
Terra we should go back to Titans tower and talk about this. Said Rachel.
Fine but it won't change my mind. I want this baby. I don't care what I have to go through to have this baby.
After they got back to Titans tower Changeling asked. How can she skip the pain of you and Azalea changing the barrier?
I'll put her in a magical induced coma while I change the barrier. She won't fell the pain but she'll have to stay under constant observation.
Why would I have to stay under observation?
If the magic senses that the baby is in danger it will make the baby grow faster. The baby could go through nine months of growth in a couple of weeks.
Would the baby's mind be affected by the growth?
His or her mind would be that of a normal newborn.
So the baby won't have a body that's out outgrown his or her mind?
No. The magic will age his or hers minds at the same time. It will be as if time has passed by normally for the baby.
Then I'll do it.
Don't I get a say in this? Asked Changeling.
I want this baby. Your baby if this will allow me to have the baby I will do it with or without your blessing.
Would she be alright? Changeling asked Rachel.
Of course she would. Do you honestly think that I would let any thing happen to someone I consider a sister?
Your right Ree. I'm sorry I'm just worried about Terra.
Every thing will be alright Gar. Said Terra. The baby and I will both be fine.
So when should we start? Asked Changeling.
Right away. Said Rachel.
