OMG! OVER A HUNDRED REVIEWS! Thank you all! this is really cool! Thank you! And the moment we ALL been waiting for! the twins! THe twins are here! YAAAAAAY! i decided NOT to get into detail about the birth, some of you might get traumatized or something. and also, i know some of you are under the age of 18...I'm looking at you, Mazi. So i'll be as clean as i can. I've seen a live birth before...and it's not that bad...but i must tell you that what you see in the movies is a total lie. Real birth is NOTHING like it is in the movies. Anyways, ENJOY!
DIZCLAIMER: haha! ya'll know i don't won Yu-gi-oh!
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
-Dr. Suess
IT WAS KATSUYA. IT was Katsuya who found Shizuka nearly passing out in the street.
He and Mai helped Shizuka get inside their Jeep Wrangler. Katsuya drove in the driver seat while Mai was at the back, using her lap as a pillow for Shizuka.
"Jesus, Shizuka!" Katsuya said for the hundredth time, "What were ya thinkin' getting out like that?! In da middle of dis crazy weather!"
"The twins…" Shizuka mumbled softly, "He's…going to take…the twins…"
"Shh-shh" Mai said softly, "Rest now, Shizuka…." She turned to her husband, "Are we almost there, Jou?" Mai asked.
Jou nodded, "We can make it in fifteen minutes….if der's no traffic…" he looked into his rearview mirror to look at his pale sister, "Can ya wait fifteen minutes…?"
Shizuka took a deep breath and nodded.
Katsuya smiled, "I'm proud of ya sis. Stay strong!"
MEANWHILES…
Kaiba was livid. He walked briskly towards Shizuka's room to figure out how the heck she got out and maybe…to see if she might've left clues as to why she had left.
He looked around the room; everything seemed to be in order….there was no card or anything. Everything seemed normal, even the unmade bed.
"How do you know for sure that Shizuka was in labor?" Kaiba asked Roland who stood next to the bed. Roland gave a curt nod, "Because of this, sir" and he lifted the sheet.
Kaiba's eyes widened….there was a pool of blood and long with another fluid as well.
"I see," Kaiba said but then his eyes caught something from outside the window. Kaiba ran outside.
LATERS…
Kaiba stood several feet below where Shizuka's window was. He examined the tree and the window. He slowly approached the tree and as he did, a single drop of water fell from the tree. (the water is actually the fluid that comes out of the body, meaning Shizuka really is in labor and could give birth at any moment).
His eyes narrowed suspiciously, and he looked up at the tree's leafless branches.
He swore under his breath. Since when the hell was she so rebellious?
He clenched his first, his knuckles turning white, "And you said…" he slowly turned to the two body guards behind him, "…That you have NO idea how she could have escaped?"
Kaiba glared at both of them, "Get out of my sight!" he snarled he pushed both men out of his way, "Roland!" Kaiba yelled.
Roland bowed, "You care is ready, sir" He said.
Kaiba didn't say anything, but got into the car.
MEANWHILES…
"Shizuka stay with us! Stay with us! Don' pass out! We're here! We're here!" Katsuya was saying as he ran along with the nurses who were taking Shizuka to the Labor and Delivery unit.
But Shizuka's eyes were becoming unfocused….she was in so much pain…
She felt a light tapping on her cheeks, "Come on Shizuka!" Mai was saying, "Breath! Breath!"
Shizuka nodded slowly, but her eyelids kept dropping.
LATERS…(Mah cracked filled part)
Kaiba stormed into the hospital, he looked around he spotted one nurse at the counter.
"I'm looking for Shizuka Jonouchi, she's in labor right now," Kaiba said trying to keep his voice calm.
"Shizuka Jonouchi?" the nurse repeated and typed the name on the computer, and nodded, "And what is your relationship to her?" the nurse asked not looking up to see who was she talking to.
"She's my wife," Kaiba lied, his face calm and expressionless.
"Ok, your wife is on the third floor, she is in labor right now as you say…"
Kaiba began to run off, "Congratulations, sir!" yelled the nurse after him, "and Merry Christmas!"
Kaiba smiled, yes, he should be happy right now….he's going to be a father in a few minutes.
Kaiba reached into the third floor, he asked another nurse what room Shizuka was.
The nurse looked up and smiled. Kaiba noticed that the nurse looked like a twelve year old boy. He had a pointy noise, soft rosy cheeks. The young male nurse also wore a green pointy Christmas hat. And…dare he say it? The guy looked like an elf.
"Why hello there!" Said a booming cheerful voice.
Kaiba turned around, his eyes widening to a very tall, fat man. He was an old man, with snow white hair, tied loosely in a low ponytail. He had rosy nose and cheeks. He wore a white lab coat and underneath he wore a bright red scrubs. He looked like….dare he say it again? He looked like Santa Claus.
"How can I help you, young lad?" boom the man, smiling.
"I'm looking for my wife," Kaiba repeated his lie, "She's in labor right now,"
"Oh! Oh HO! HO! HOOOO!" Laughed the giant man, "And that's who I'm going to deliver right now! Follow me, you lucky man!"
Kaiba followed the strange man, while the doctor took out a steel canister and took a large gulp from it, "By the way, my name is Dr. Nicolas Faust." He said
"Dr. Nicolas Frost?" Kaiba repeated narrowing his eyes suspiciously.
"Yep," Dr. Faust took another swing of whatever it was in his flask. Is he drunk? "I'm new to Japan; I came from the north…from Finland."
Dr. Faust handed Kaiba his flask, "Want some?" he asked, "It's eggnog! You'll love it!"
Kaiba shook his head.
Dr. Faust smiled, "More for me, then."
And then he burst into a song, a song disturbingly about labor but going along with the rhythm of "Santa Claus is coming to Town,"
"You better breath in, you better breath out! You better keep breathing I'm tellin ya why, Nicolas Faust is coming to town!"
Kaiba rolled his eyes, is it him, or is the whole hospital empty somehow? And why is this doctor taking his sweet time to get to Shizuka?
"He knows when you're in labor! He knows when you're in pain! He'll know if it's a boy or a girl so keep pushin' for goodness sake!" he took another swing.
"OH! You better breath in, you better push out! You better keep dilating I'm telling you why…Nicolas Faust is coming to TOOOOOWWWN!"
"When…" Kaiba began, but Dr. Faust burst into another song, this time sounding a lot like "Jingle Bells"
"Daddy's here! Mommy's there! The baby's on its way! Oh what fun, it is to see a smile on the couple's face! HEY!"
"WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET TO SHIZUKA?!" Kaiba yelled.
The doctor smiled, "We're here sir," he opened the two doors, "Take a look…."
Kaiba walked into the room(after he changed of course) where he could clearly see Shizuka already on the surgery table, her face deathly pale.
"Doctor! Her cervix is already 10 inches!" Said a nurse.
Shizuka let out a cry of pain, "She's ready sir!" said the nurse.
"Alright, Miss Shizuka," Said Dr. Faust, "Time to push!"
Kaiba swallowed, he's never seen an actual live labor before. He had NO idea what to expect. But he knew it was going to be painful…at least for Shizuka.
"Doctor, we have the epidural ready," said another nurse (epidural is the pain medication used for women so that they won't feel pain).
Dr. Faust shook his head, "She's doesn't need it," he said, "Her body is ready," he looked up at Shizuka.
"Come on Miss Shizuka! Push! Push!" he turned to his nurses, "Help her out," he said
The nurses helped spread Shizuka's legs, while Shizuka grunted and breathed in and out.
About thirty minutes later…Kaiba gasped as he saw the first child arrive. The nursed gave Kaiba surgical scissors and said, "Would you like to cut the cord?"
Kaiba was startled, but he took the scissors and cut the cord.
"Looky here! Here's baby number one!" said a nurse cheerfully; she let Kaiba carry the first twin for the first time. Kaiba smiled as the baby cried. The nurse took the child away and let Shizuka see the kid as well. Shizuka smiled and tears ran down her face. She didn't get to hold the child; they took the first one away to get measured on the scale.
About an hour later, the second child was born.
And again, Kaiba was asked to cut the cord, which he gladly did.
He had the honor of carrying the second one as well; this one couldn't stop crying and had the loudest cry ever. He laughed as the nurse took the second child and tried to get it measured.
He stared at the twins who were crying and being weighed. He couldn't believe it…he had twins! He did it!
He saw his children leave to get into the warming table…or the incubator to keep the babies warm.
Finally, the goal he had been trying to accomplish had finally happened. He was a father. Unexpectedly a father of twins. He smiled upon Shizuka's sleeping face. The nurses began to unhook Shizuka and mover her bed into another room (because twins are always delivered in a surgery room in case of complications).
LATERS…
Kaiba walked out of the surgery room and was about to follow the nurses who were taking Shizuka into another room, but he stopped when he heard someone say, "So ya came,"
Kaiba turned, and found Jonouchi, Mai, Yugi, Anzu(who was carrying Atem) and Honda sitting in the waiting room.
Kaiba stared at them coldly and said, "Yes, I did."
Jonouchi got up from his seat, stuffed his hands into his pockets and nodded, "So now dat ya have da kids….what do ya plan to do with my sista?" he said calmly.
Kaiba narrowed his eyes, "And just what do you mean by that, mutt." He sneered.
"What I MEAN is….are ya planning to take responsibility? Are ya planning to do da right thing…and…" Jonouchi didn't finish, he only stared at Kaiba like he assumed Kaiba would know what he meant.
Kaiba laughed, a cold, evil laugh, "I do whatever I want, Jonouchi."
Jonouchi took a deep breath, it was difficult to hold in his anger but he was surprised that he somehow managed it, "This is my sista we're talkin' about here…" He said evenly, "And as her only relative…I want what's best for her…and…da kids…they need their mother, Kaiba." Jonouchi said.
"You got her involved with your plans…so know ya hafta pay da price…" He added.
Kaiba raised an eyebrow, "Are you…are you THREATENING me, Jonouchi?" Kaiba said slowly.
Jonouchi shook his head, "For once, I'm not…I'm just sayin'…dat…well…"
"I don't have time for this," Kaiba said and he walked away.
"You did well, Katsuya," Mai said rubbing Jonouchi's arm. Jonouchi nodded, "Yeah," he said.
"I wonder what he plans to do with her," Anzu said, "I mean, you're right, Jou. Kaiba has to take responsibility for what he's done,"
"I'm sure Kaiba will do the right thing," Yugi said.
"If he doesn't…I will step in," Honda said seriously. Everyone turned to Honda, who said, "Look, Jou, you know I've had feelings for your sister for a while now…and if Kaiba abandons her…I will marry her,"
Jonouchi blinked several times, "Ya what?" he said.
"You heard me," Honda said, "I'll marry your sister…I don't…I don't care if she's already….taken…but I don't care! I will marry her! I love her, Jou. I love your sister!"
Jonouchi took another deep breath and he said with a shaky voice, "You're…you're a good guy, Honda. A real good guy. I'll give ya my blessin'" he said.
Honda smiled, "Thanks, Jou."
"Hey guys!" said a voice. Everyone turned and gasped.
