One month later...

Three slowly shook his head, "I can't believe that actually worked"

"I know" Minako turned and held onto his hand, "But at least we're safe now"

"Ryo's probably pissed that his business is all over the galaxy right now" Three breathed out and shook his head.

"Then he should've known better to not come after the crew of the Raza" Minako smiled.

Three smirked, "His mistake"

It took about two days before a public announcement was made on behalf of Ayaka and the monk as they stood bravely in front of the court of Chang'e and announced their void of a contract. Minako had her eyes glued to her father as he seemed surprised at this but chose not to voice out his opinion in front of everyone.

"The cruisers, spies, and attacks have settled" Minako walked around the Mess Hall, "Ryo has no more need to try and come after us, especially now that we're being monitored by gossip shows"

Three rolled his eyes, "Yeah, didn't think I would be talk of the galaxy that way"

"Would you rather be known as a wanted criminal?" Minako asked.

"I am known as a wanted criminal and you're known as a princess" Three shrugged, "But that's our past lives"

Minako smiled as Three walked over and wrapped his arms around her huge body. He nestled his head into her temple and swayed her back and forth. She tsked in disapproval as Three couldn't help but laugh at her being unsteady.

It felt almost as if it's been three years and she was still pregnant with the baby. She knew it was the final month and anything can happen but she couldn't wait. Minako couldn't wait to meet their baby, see her feet again, and not be a big balloon. Now that they weren't being targeted for the first time in months, she couldn't wait to give birth.

Three nodded his head back over to their room, "Come on, I think that's enough standing and walking for right now"

Minako let out a huff, "You know me so well… it's sad to know that I can barely walk around the entire ship anymore"

"Well, that's because of our little man" Three rubbed her stomach, "Don't worry, we'll be chasing after him before you know it"

"With all the weapons everywhere" Minako furrowed her brow, "I think that's what I'm scared of the most"

"Come on, it won't be that bad" Three laughed.

Minako couldn't help but disagree as she got up from her place but then suddenly froze in place as her eyes widened.

Three was too busy talking on and on about guns and their son to even notice her reaction. His back was turned to her also so he didn't even notice her face change the moment she got up.

Even though she couldn't see her lower part of her body, she still looked down. She felt a small trickle of fluid in her underwear as it slowly soaked her undergarment. Minako couldn't help but blush at the sudden accident but another thought passed through her mind.

She's accidentally urinated before but this was different. It's happened to Minako whenever she coughed, sneezed, or laugh but she would be able to hold it in directly after. This was different, even when she tried squeezing her muscles, she still felt nothing happening. It dawned on her the second she noticed the big difference.

The baby was coming.

Minako dropped her cup as it clattered to the ground, finally getting Three's attention. He turned around and noticed how her eyes were wide and her mouth seemed to have dropped.

He didn't need to ask her what was going on as he quickly came to her side and ordered the Android to meet him in the infirmary. Three took her by the hand and wrapped his arm around her waist to ease her off of the table. Minako was still in shock as Three had to practically drag her over to the infirmary were he wasn't surprised to see Six and Five already waiting for them.

Very gently, Six and Three hoisted her up onto the table and swung her legs over on the flat surface just as the Android and Two came into the room. The familiar blue light went over her body as Three let Minako bear her weight down onto his, no longer able to sit all the way down but also balance herself either. The computer beeped as everyone turned to the screen, hoping that somehow they would be able to figure it out themselves. The Android turned and looked over to Minako with her wide doed eyes.

"Your water broke, Minako" the Android said, "The baby is coming"

"Send word to Ayaka" Two commanded, "She promised to give us a secret admission to the closest allies hospital"

"How long do I have?" Minako asked.

"Generally, the first contractions you should feel come from 12- 24 hours after the water breaks" the Android explained, "But if you want to speed up the process then you should walk around the Raza"

"I don't think that's a good idea" Six said.

"Agreed" nearly everyone voiced out.

"Then she should be taken to her room, change into dry clothes, and rest up" the Android said, "I'll contact Ayaka now"

Two nodded, "Thank you"

By the time Minako was helped into their room and changed into dry, comfortable clothes, the Android had come in. She informed Three and Minako that the closest facility is 24 hours away in FTL.

"Why can't we just use the Blink Drive?" Three asked, annoyed.

"Because we had to tell the Empress our coordinates in order for her to find the closest ally" the Android told him, "Using the Blink Drive will be highly suspicious"

Minako nodded, "She's right… I don't want my planet to know of this device. They might be just as thirsty to get it as Ryo"

"You think you can hold off until then?" Three turned to her with his hands on his hips.

Minako cracked a smile, "I don't think I have a choice"

Three gave her a small smile just as the Raza violently shook, causing everyone to be off guard.

"What the hell was that?!" Three yelled out.

"An Ishida Cruiser found us" the Android informed.

"Use max FTL now!" Three commanded.

"FTL gauge is damaged, will take four hours to repair" the Android said, "I will move as fast as I can in sublight but they will catch up"

Minako glanced up to Three as he looked worried over to Minako and ran to get Bubba off of the shelf. He tapped and made sure it was in full power before he sat down, placed a hand on her stomach and his forehead on hers.

"We're going to get you to that facility" Three said, "I promise"

Minako nodded, "I know… but I hope you're right"
