Lin watched his wife sleep… He was getting anxious… His baby girl will be here any day now. Five more days until the due date. "Koujo, the baby won't come if you keep on staring at my stomach all the time. And what did Ayako say? The first born is always late." Mai whispered as she sat up.

"And she also said that the twentieth is an estimated dated, she said any day." Lin added rubbing her stomach. "That was three days ago- Arrgghh!" Mai stopped at mid-sentence grabbed her stomach. "I think that day is now." She groaned. "My water just broke." She added.

Lin sprang to his feet and went over to Mai's side and felt the bed and it was indeed wet. He picked up the phone and dialled Ayako's number. "Dr Matsuzaki speaking…" Ayako answered. "Her water broke, we are on our way." Lin said hung up and then told the others.

He got Mai in to the car and to the hospital in ten minutes. He was thankful that Ayako's family hospital was close by. "Breathe Mai, breathe." He reminded her every time she screamed. Naru and Madoka brought the baby things with them.

Ayako was waiting for them when they got there. Mai sat in the wheelchair and Lin wheeled her to the room, Ayako led the way.

The SPR gang waited at the hospital. John prayed for a healthy easy birth. Three hours later Lin came out holding a bundle. He found them asleep. He gave a little cough and they woke up and when they saw him holding a bundle they rushed over to him. "Say hello to Hanna Koujo Lin." Lin whispered.

Everyone gathered around to see her. "How is Mai?" Madoka asked. "Mai is alright and happy. She fed Hanna and now is resting. Naru, come and hold your goddaughter." Lin gently placed Hanna in her godfather's arms. Naru smiled at the new life in his arms.

Madoka smiled at the sight. "Is it alright if I go and sit with Mai?" She asked after a minute. Lin nodded. "I'm just going to let everyone a chance to hold her and then I'll be back in." He replied.

Madoka smiled and nodded and went in to the room. Mai was awake when Madoka entered. "Hi, how are you feeling?" Madoka asked in a gentle whisper.

Mai smiled at her in return. "I'm fine. Tell me that that little girl is real?" Mai asked.

"She's real." Madoka replied.

"And that she is mine."

"She's your daughter Mai. And she's Lin's daughter as well. And she is beautiful." Madoka whispered.

"How are you feeling about all this?" Mai asked. Madoka shook her head with a smile. "Mai, there are too many orphans in this world you deserve a loving home with people who want them and love them." She said.

"Where were you when my mother died?" Mai half joked. "I would have taken you in seconds." Madoka said with a smile. "And so would Noll's parents." She added.

"Now, get some sleep. Lin will be back, he just want everyone to meet Hanna." Madoka said after a minute of silence. Mad nodded and fell asleep.

Everyone got to hold Hanna. But they only got to hold her for a minute. "But Naru got to hold her longer…" Yasu sulked. "I'm the godfather." Naru said proudly. "I'm going back to Mai. Come back tomorrow." Lin said and they nodded and left.

Lin took Hanna back to her sleeping mother. Lin quietly sat in a chair holding his little girl in his arms. "I've waited nine months to hold you, Hanna. And now that you're here, I still can't believe it. I'm going to teach you everything. I'd never thought of having you ever, but when I married your mother and fell deeply in love with her, (in that order as well… I'll tell you that story when you're old enough to understand) I could see myself holding my child, you, in my arms. You sleeping in between me and your mother. I can see you know, five years later, coming into our bedroom when you've just woken up from a nightmare…

"I can't wait to watch you grow in to a woman just like your mother. I watched her grow as well… I hope you'll grow up to just like your mother, loving, kind, smart, beautiful and talented and intelligent."

Lin gently placed Hanna in to her cot and tucked her in just like Ayako's sister taught him and fell asleep on the chair. A few hours later Mai and Hanna got the all clear and were able to leave the hospital. Once Hanna was safely fastened in the car they went home.

When they got home Naru was there in the apartment. "As you know the others and I had a bet on what the gender and the baby's weight. I won the bet."

Mai rolled her eyes, "we know about the bet. You won." She snapped. "But the bet was just a cover up…" Naru went on.

"Cover up for what?" Lin asked. "The bet was a cover up for the real reason why we got the money together… I put the money in an account for Hanna's education. There is enough to put her through elementary school and high school. And when she is ready for University I have put her on the list for three Universities in England."

Mai carefully placed Hanna in Lin's arms and then went on to tackle Naru in a hug. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." She said over and over. "I want the best for my goddaughter." Naru whispered. Mai finally let Naru stand up again and Lin shook his hand. "Thank you very much, my friend."

"I'll get going now." Naru said and left. "Ayako told the others to stay away from you, so you can bound with Hanna. And Mai, I don't want to see you in the office for a while…" Naru added before leaving the apartment.

It wasn't long after Naru left that Hanna started cry, Mai fed her while Lin prepared lunch. When lunch was ready Hanna was full and Mai held her over her shoulder, her hand cupping Hannah's tiny head gently and patted her back gently until she burped. Lin took Hanna and placed her in her crib and he ate with Mai. And when they finished eating Lin picked up Hanna and sat back down next to Mai and they just smiled down at their little girl.

Five months later…

Mai sat at her desk going through some old case files, flash backs of the cases went through her head but then the phone rang. "Shibuya Psychic Research, Mai speaking how can I help you?" Mai answered in a cheerful voice.

"I'm going to get you Mai Taniyama Lin, and your little girl." It sounded like Hishato… "LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE MY DAUGHTER ALONE!" Lin came running out of his office and he took the phone off her. Naru was right behind him, on his cell phone dialling the police.

"Hishato, leave my family alone." Lin growled in a deadly voice. Mai raced over to Hanna and picked her up.

"Make me. I want Mai."

"You are going to regret those words Hishato." Lin growled again and hung up. Lin pulled his family to him.

"I've called the police and they said that Hishato escaped last week…" Naru said.

"He could be watching us right now…" Mai said shaking. Lin pulled her closer to him.

"I'm booking us a flight to London tonight. You will stay with my parents." Naru said calling the airport.

Naru made the flight arrangements and then Naru called the others and told them what happened and told them to pack. Lin and Mai packed their bags and met the others at the airport.

"The police will let me know when they have caught him." Naru whispered to Mai on the plane. He squeezed her hand as the plane took off.

Hishato screamed as he watched the plane take off. People stared at him like he was a freak. He couldn't get the information from the woman behind the desk. He had to get out of sight before he is recognised…

I know it's short and I know I haven't updated. I'm sorry. I couldn't update because my internet is down at the moment. And I have a cold so I didn't feel like doing anything.

Please review.
