Chapter 28: F'ri Au Ih
A blonde-haired, blue-eyed female lay propped up in bed holding her not so small daughter in her arms. She looked down at the small child who was suckling at her breast as she fought against heavy lidded eyes. To her right, Goten curled up against her his head resting in her lap as he snored peacefully with one leg stuck out from under the covers. On her left side Gohan was curled up against holding a book open in his hands as he slept quietly beside her. A gentle smile graced her lips as stole another glance at each of her children and then up to the tv that flickered. Letting out a large sigh she leaned back against the headboard closing her eyes. It was hard for her to grasp that just a little over 24 hours ago she had given birth to her first child. Her eyes began to grow heavy as she felt herself slipping away to unconsciousness. She jerked up right in bed as she felt a soft kiss pressed to her lips and someone trying to lift her daughter from her arms. Her eyes flew open as she tucked the sleeping child closer to her body and looked up to see her mate looking down at her with a broad goofy grin on his face.
"Rest r'sha," Goku pulled his daughter fully into his arms as he watched his mate relax her hold, "I can take care of her for a while."
"Goku." She glanced down at the bed and noticed that somehow Gohan and Goten had been brought with her to the dream world they shared. Slipping out of bed she moved slowly to stand before her mate taking in how natural he looked holding their daughter in his arms.
He positioned his daughter awkwardly in his left arm as he reached out to his little blonde woman with his right arm pulling her close to his body. The tall goofy warrior placed a delicate kiss to his mate's forehead before turning his eyes back to their slumbering daughter. "She's beautiful, Usa m'yo. What did you name her?"
Usagi adjusted and placed their daughter in a more comfortable position for Father and daughter. "Gine, after Ma m'yau. Come lay down with us." She tugged on his hand pulling him with her towards the bed. "She weighed 13 pounds and 10 ounces and was 23- and three-quarter inches long. I wouldn't be surprised if she is taller than me before she turns 4." She scooted Gohan over to the center of the bed pulled Goten into her lap letting his head rest against her chest.
Goku slid into the right side of the bed holding his youngest in his left arm and ran his fingers through his oldest son's hair. As soon as Usagi was settled in the bed holding their middle child he wrapped his right arm around her shoulders pulling her as close to him as possible. He pressed his lips to hers in a desperate attempt to feel her as close to him as possible. When he lips left hers, he took in her appearance; her eyes wide and dilated, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing heavy. He brushed his thumb over her cheek as he saw the tears starting to gather in her eyes.
"I miss you so much." She confessed as a sob broke through her voice.
"I miss you too." Goku pulled her head to rest on his shoulder as she held onto their middle child tightly. "Just rest r'sha m'yo, I know you are tired and that you haven't slept since the morning Gine was born." He raised his daughter up to his lips kissing her forehead and vowing to always look after her.
"I know." She mumbled sleepily against his shoulder. "She has her Ja'ta's appetite." Closing her eyes Usagi was asleep seconds later resting her head against her mate's shoulder.
He smiled contentedly at his small family gathered around him. He leaned back resting his daughter fully on his chest and pulled his oldest son closer to him before he himself closed his eyes resting peacefully.
Four weeks later Usagi woke to find she was alone in bed. Looking over to the rocking chair she saw Nappa holding a fussy baby trying to get her to take a bottle. She would suckle for a minute then start screaming and refuse the bottle. Sighing, Usagi stood from the bed and crossed over to the tall warrior kneeling beside the chair she outstretched her arms silently asking to take her child.
"F'ri Ve'ho." Nappa shook his head. "Ami is seriously entertaining the idea of bearing a son for me so I need to be able to make it through one feeding." His face contorted in concentration as he tried to angle the bottle differently.
"Nappa," she gently pulled her daughter into her arms and turned her back to the tall warrior offering her daughter her swollen milk filled breast on the left side, which she greedily latched onto, "it doesn't matter what type of bottle you use, how you hold it, or even what you put in there she won't take it. Gine ho will only take to the breast." She sat in the rocking chair once Nappa had stood and guided her over to the large plush rocking chair. She spun to face the eldest of the Saiyans as he sat in the window seat. "So tiny Ami is agreeable to having a giant spawn of a br'at with you now, huh? Her seeing how big Gine was at birth didn't scare her off?"
"Surprisingly not." Nappa laughed heartily. "She wants to start actively trying, she even gave me all of her birth control to dispose of."
"No shit? Our Nappa is going to be a Ja'ta in no time." She smiled happily at him. "I never did thank you for all of your help while I was pregnant and especially while ji'shu m'eh. Thank you Nappa, I couldn't have done it without you."
"I would do anything for you Ve'ho," he cupped the side of her face in his large hand dropping a kiss to the top of her head, "and anything for ho'sh m'yau." He laid a soft gentle kiss on the back of her daughter's head and made to exit the room. Turning back to look at her over his shoulder he spoke softly, "Ami will be coming by later to take the atti's measurements for notation purposes."
An hour later Gine was sated and sleeping in the bassinet next to her bed. Usagi quickly stripped and hopped into the shower washing her hair letting the hot scalding water run over her body. Stepping out of the shower she dried her body off, wrapped in a robe and grabbed a hair brush out of the cabinet. Usagi opened the door to the hallway and looked around for someone to help her.
"Hey Bunny!" Minako greeted as she and a pregnant Makoto made their down the hall. "Whatcha doing?"
"I was going to get one of the guys to cut my hair. I didn't realize how long it had gotten since I keep it up so frequently." She turned to look at the other blonde and the brunette. "One of you could help me out, right?"
"Rei is actually the expert, I'll go ask her!" Minako ran off excited about the prospect of female bonding time taking place between them all.
"You may regret this." Makoto rubbed at her slightly extended belly as she looked down with a smile on her lips.
Usagi opened her door wider letting Makoto walk in and take up residency in the rocking chair in the corner of the room. Ami stood nervously in the doorway holding a clipboard waiting for permission to come in. Usagi waved her hand at the bassinet where her daughter slept soundly. Minako and Rei walked through the door with a small bag full of scissors and different things that were needed to cut hair. Rei moved the chair away from the wall leaving her room to walk around and look. The raven-haired princess urged the Lunarian Saiyan royal to sit down in the chair. Rei lifted the blonde's hair pinning it up and wrapped her towel around her shoulders. She began segmenting her hair in order to trim it.
"How short are you wanting it, Usagi?" Rei asked as she leaned over her shoulder.
"Shoulder length with layers, if you can. That should buy me some time before I need to cut it again." She shrugged her shoulders as Rei got to work on her hair. She looked over to see Ami jotting down the measurements of her daughter and pulled out her visor turning it into a scale that she placed the large baby girl on. "Mako," she called out the brunette female with green eyes that was currently watching Ami, "are you excited about being Ma? I know Turles is beyond excited."
"Oh! Definitely!" Mako smiled down at her swollen belly at only three months. She looked at the other four women in the room and leaned forward in the chair. "Ami did a scan this morning, I haven't even told Turles yet, and figured out that we are having twins! She can't tell the gender yet because it is still too early but there are for sure two little half Saiyans growing in here." She smiled happily.
"That explains why you are showing so much quicker than Usagi and I did. This is so exciting, two babies!" Minako stood up and hugged Makoto tightly around her shoulders.
"Hopefully they are smaller than Gine." Rei scoffed, immediately regretting her words. "I meant no offense Usagi, your daughter was just so big and you, being half Saiyan, were able to handle that big of a child. I'm worried Mako won't be able to give birth to two children of that size."
"No offense taken." Usagi waved her hand nonchalantly at the comment from the raven-haired senshi. "Gine was a large br'at. I'm sure between Ami and Bulma they'll keep a close eye on Mako and those two attis growing within her." She smiled warmly at the mate of her oldest brother. "Saiyan births and pregnancy aren't easy to begin with and couple that with you growing two of them inside of you," she shrugged her shoulders, "I don't believe Turles is going to let you out of his sight or out of bed until it is time for ji'shu."
"Actually," Ami stood up pulling her glasses off her face and turned to face Usagi, "Makoto and I already discussed that she will more than likely have to undergo a cesarean section due to the fact that she is having twins and they are already quite large."
"Cesarean?" Usagi pondered. "That's the thing where they have to cut the attis out of the mother, isn't?" She looked at the blue-haired genius for confirmation.
"It is." Ami nodded her head yes.
"And it will need to be done in a hospital by a doctor and staff in one of those operating rooms, right?" Ami shook her head yes again. "Makoto," Usagi looked seriously at the pregnant female in the room, "you need to tell Turles about this as soon as possible. He is not going to take to this idea very well."
"Is this some typical Saiyan ego power trip?" Rei sighed as she moved onto the next section of Usagi's hair.
"No, Rei, he is going to be constantly antsy and jumpy over everything and the fact that someone has to cut his mate open , allowing someone to cause harm to his mate, in order to bring their br'ats into the world is what is not going to sit well with him."
"Saiyans are fiercely protective of their mates and their offspring." Minako chuckled. "You should have seen Raddy when I got to the end of my pregnancy with Isu. He tried to carry me everywhere because he didn't want me to overexert myself. No use crying over spilled silk." Minako shrugged her shoulders.
The four women bonded and grew closer together often training and taking days to relax by shopping or taking the children to the park. On this particularly warm summer day, while the weather was nice, they had decided to take the children to the park allowing the men to focus on training and Bulma to complete an experiment she and her father had been working on. Usagi had her hair pulled into a low ponytail wearing a pair of pink shorts, a button up denim sleeveless shirt, and a pair on checkered slip on Vans as she pushed an umbrella stroller with her daughter in it. Trunks and Goten were both walking beside her; Goten wore a pair black gym shorts and a green t-shirt with tennis shoes while Trunks wore a pair of green and blue checkered pants with a white t-shirt and a pair of tennis shoes. Minako wore a simple yellow spaghetti strap sundress with small white flowers as she pushed her daughter is a stroller. The small half Saiyan half Venusian child wore a dress that matched her mother with a pair of white short and white tennis shoes. Makoto wore a green button up dress with butterfly sleeves and medium sized roses spaced out along the dress and a pair of soft pink roman style sandals on her feet. Ami walked along side Gohan wearing a pair of white shorts with a sleeveless dark blue turtleneck shirt and white tennis shoes on her feet. Gohan wore a pair of blue jeans with a grey undershirt and an unbuttoned yellow and blue checkered shirt and a pair of brown tennis shoes. Rei walked on the other side of Gohan sporting a simple red dress that flared out slightly stopping midway down her thigh with three quarters sleeves and a pair of red wedges sandals.
Upon reaching the playground, they let Trunks and Goten run off to play. Minako and Isuki followed them happily. Usagi sat down at one of the picnic tables pulling a muslin blanket out of the diaper and scooped up her four-month old daughter as she began to fuss. Gine instantly ceased her fussing when offered Usagi's breast under the blanket. Gohan sat beside his mother reading a book. Snatching the book away from the young boy she closed it and shoed him off to play with his brother. Ami sat on the right side of Usagi with her medical textbook and notebook spread out in front of her highlighting and taking notes. Rei stood beside them, a small smile gracing her lips as she watched the mass of young children frolicking happily around the playground. Makoto sat on the left side of Usagi exhaling as she was able to get off her feet, being six months pregnant with twins was taking its toll on her.
"I told you, you didn't have to come with us Makoto." Usagi sighed as she felt her daughter clamp down on her nipple followed by a giggle from beneath the blanket.
"I didn't want to be cooped up in the house, not on such a nice day." She smiled happily at the joyous sound that escaped the small children currently playing with Minako. "Besides, seeing the kids so happy makes it all worth it."
The wind suddenly picked up and dark clouds began to circle the playground. The Sailor Senshi looked up sensing the evil approaching. The other parents gathered their children and rushed off to the cars believing it was just another summer storm encroaching on their beautiful day. Usagi pulled her daughter from her and passed her off to Makoto and rapidly righted her shirt while whistling loudly and calling for nimbus; the flying yellow cloud her husband had told her about and gifted to her. Minako hurriedly picked up Isuki and urged the other children to the small group of females gathered around the picnic table.
"Makoto, get on Nimbus and take the br'ats back home right now." She turned to Gohan kneeling eye level with him while shoving Isuki into his arms. "Gohan, take Isuki and lead everyone back home right now. I don't want an argument and I know you want to stay and help us fight but this is how you can help. Get everyone home safely," she cupped the side of his face, "understand."
"G'in Ma!" He wrapped his arms around her neck hugging her tightly. "Be safe Momma and come home soon."
She closed her eyes dropping a kiss to his forehead. "I promise," she whispered in Saiyan, "as soon as we take care of whatever this is. Now, get going." She stood up watching as Rei and Minako helped Makoto onto the cloud with the two younger boys and they blasted away. Turning to the other three Sailor Senshi she nodded her head and they all transformed while she powered up.
"Well, well, well," a sinister female voice rang out from the dark clouds above them, "looks as though Master was right. You four will die soon. You suited sailor soldiers, defenders of the Earth. You are a joke!" She had long straight black hair with alabaster skin, a beautiful angelic like face with a black star in the center of her forehead and dark violet eyes that showed murderous intent. She wore a dark purple sleeveless low-cut V-neck dress that exposed an ample amount of cleavage.
"In the name of Mars, I will burn you alive for destroying the sanctity of this beautiful day!" Rei shouted out striking a pose.
"In the name of Mercury, I shall freeze you shattering such a perfect day outside!" Ami struck a pose of her own.
"By the powers of Venus, you shall pay for your crime of taking away the joy from the children that were playing at this park!" Minako struck her own pose while blowing a kiss at their enemy.
"Heu," Usagi slapped her hand to her face in utter disbelief as she mumbled to herself, "your speeches and poses are even more lame than the Ginyu Force."
"I couldn't agree more. Now die!" She waved her hand opening a large portal allowing a flood of enemies to come straight at them.
"Great," Rei sighed out of frustration as she prepared to attack, "a new enemy attacks us after all this time and they send a swarm at us right off the bat. Burning Mandala!"
"Maybe we can defeat this enemy quickly? Venus Love Me Chain!" Minako spoke quickly as she dodged an attack before sending her own hurdling towards the enemy.
"I highly doubt it. Mercury Aqua Rhapsody! This enemy is very strong, and we need the others." Ami flipped backwards avoiding an oncoming attack.
"We might could defeat them if you would quit talking. Aaahhhhh!" Usagi yelled as one of the monsters lashed out slashing her back injuring her.
"Usagi!" The three of them yelled out simultaneously.
"I'm fine but ki blasts aren't getting me anywhere." She placed her hand over her chest she pulled out the crystal transforming quickly. "I won't stand for evil you have conjured here today and for disrupting all of the families that came to this beautiful part to spend time together! In the name of the Moon, I Sailor Moon the champion of love and justice, will right wrongs and triumph over evil and that means and that means you!" Usagi blinked dumbfounded at her own words that left her mouth as she noticed she had also posed. "Tapa, does this transformation make us all give these ridiculously awful speeches?"
"It just kinda happens every time we have to fight someone." Minako shrugged at her.
"Enough idle chit chat from you, now you'll all die as Master Pharaoh 90 ordered!"
The girls jumped back trying to evade the large blast. Minako was caught in the side, Ami was sent flying backwards from the blast, and Rei was thrown into a tree crumpling to the ground unconscious. Usagi spun around, anger flashing in her blue eyes as she turned slowly to look up at the onslaught of enemies hurdling towards them.
"I've had enough of this!" Usagi yelled loudly as she called forth her moon wand and pointed it at the enemies rapidly encroaching her. "Moon Healing Escalation!" She spun around swinging the wand at every being in her path. She saw as the healing light hit them causing them to revert to their human forms. Anger flashed across her eyes as she noticed the creatures she had been fighting were merely tools at the enemies disposal. Once she had healed all the mutated humans, she turned her wand on the evil woman floating in the sky above her. "You will pay for what you did to all these people."
"No! You're the one who is going to pay! My master won't stand for this. I'll be back, mark my words." A portal opened behind the woman.
"No, you don't!" Usagi shouted as she blasted another attack at the woman barely clipping her in the side as she disappeared through the portal.
She growled loudly in frustration and turned around to check on her fallen senshi. Ami was slowly sitting up holding her left shoulder which appeared dislocated. Minako had rolled over onto her back panting as she struggled to push the pain away. Rei still lay unconscious and crumpled next to the tree. Kneeling next to the fire senshi she reached out to touch her softly letting the silver healing light poor over her.
"Ve'ho!?" Nappa called from the sky as he spotted the quartet of women.
"I'm fine Nappa," she replied not bothering to look up as she concentrated on healing Rei. "Check on your mate."
"Sh'fr, how can I help?" Tarble landed beside his sister.
"Is it just you and Nappa?" Her eyes remained closed as she concentrated, unable to focus on anything else.
"Radditz, Turles, and Vegeta are on their way. Nappa and I were closer. Now how can I help?" Tarble becoming concerned at the amount of power he could feel his sister giving off.
"Go check on Minako till Radditz gets here." Her voice strained. "Give them senzu beans if you happen to have any. If not, bring both over here and I'll heal them as soon as I get Rei stable."
Nappa called Tarble over to help him set Ami's shoulder back into place. With help from Nappa Ami walked over to Mina and assessed her. Radditz landed beside his mate pulling her into his arms and inspecting every inch of her. Vegeta and Turles landed beside Usagi, watching as she began to ease up on the healing light when Rei opened her eyes. Sighing, the blonde hybrid princess nodded at Rei before turning to stand on shaky legs as she walked over to Ami and Minako. Both women protested that they didn't need any healing and that they would be just fine. Ignoring them, she bathed them both in the silvery light immediately healing all small wounds on their persons quickly.
"Turles, can you carry Rei? I want to get out of here quickly." She turned walking towards the two strollers that had been turned over in the battle and found herself feeling lightheaded as her legs started to give out on her. Feeling a strong pair of arms wrap around her middle and her head thump against a muscular chest she looked up to see Vegeta smirking down at her softly. He scooped her up into his arms and shook his head silencing any argument she was about to make.
"Tarble," he barked loudly, "get the infant pushers and let's go." He lifted into the air.
"They're called strollers." Usagi chuckled as she closed her eyes and rested her head against his chest as the fatigue finally began to win out.
"Shut up and rest, sh." Vegeta gave her a light squeeze. "You always over do it."
"I wouldn't be a Saiyan Princess if I didn't give it my all." She mumbled as she began to drift off to sleep nestled in the safety of her brother's arms.
Nine weeks later the group of family and friends found themselves gathered at the hospital in the waiting room of the labor and delivery floor. Ami, Minako, Rei, and Tarble sat on the floor with the small children trying to keep them calm and entered with colors, books, songs and toys. Vegeta leaned against the wall with his eyes closed and his arms folded against his chest. Bulma worked away furiously on her tablet on some project design. Nappa sat in a chair a soft smile touching his lips as he watched his mate playing with the half Saiyan half human children while holding Usagi's six and a half month old daughter in her lap helping her to play with rings that Ami had told him helped the children with gross motor skills. Radditz sat in one of the uncomfortable chairs flipping through one of the medical journals that was provided for reading.
"Hey guys!" Krillian greeted as he walked into the waiting room holding a small pink bundle in his arms; 18 had given birth to a little girl not even 12 hours ago. "Any word on how Mako is doing?"
"Not yet." Piccolo answered from the back corner of the room where he sat meditating.
"18 is ready for visitors if anyone wants to come see her and this," he turned angling the small pink bundle, "is our daughter Marron."
"Man," Yamcha smiled at the sleeping baby in his friends' arms, "everyone is having babies except for us Tien."
"I'm perfectly fine with that." Tien replied as he turned his back on them.
"Hahaha!" Yamcha laughed as he slapped the bald tri-clops on the back. "Me too man, me too!"
Bulma stood and scooped the baby out of Krillian's arms looking down at the short man. "She is just beautiful! Now, let's go see your Mommy."
Bulma, Tien, Chaitzou, and Yamcha followed Krillian out of the room and down the hallway to see 18. Usagi walked into the room pushing a cart full of food and cleared her throat signaling for everyone to dig in. She sat down sideways in one of the hard-uncomfortable chairs and sipped on her steaming hot coffee. Last night had been a particularly long and harrowing night. Between a few random youma attacks, 18 going into labor, and Gine not sleeping due to teething Usagi was exhausted and ready for a nap. A nurse frantically walked into the waiting room looking around at the large group.
"Excuse me? Is one of you Son, Usagi?" The nurse looked at all the adults in the room.
Usagi raised her hand as she sipped her coffee and spun around in her seat in order to stand. Swallowing her warm coffee, she answered the nurse.
"Could you follow me please?" The nurse turned and started to walk off at a rapid pace.
Seeing the panic in the nurse's eyes Usagi tossed her coffee in the trash and followed the nurse. "What's going on?"
"You are Son, Turles's sister, correct?" The black-haired nurse with green eyes wearing seafoam green scrubs looked over her shoulder at the blonde.
"I am. What's going on?" Usagi insisted again.
"Dr. Chiba asked us me to bring you to the room. He said he would explain when we got there. I can tell you that everyone is a little more than scarred to go in the room with your brother, even security." The nurse pointed to a room that held Makoto's name on it.
As she opened the door, she saw Makoto leaning with her forearms against the bed bent at a 90-degree angle as she moaned in pain as contractions crashed one on top of the other. Turles stood beside his mate rubbing her lower back as he purred comfortingly for her. Mamoura sat on the couch watching the couple and three monitors, one attached to Makoto monitoring her and the other two monitoring each of the children within her. Looking over he saw Usagi walk in the room and rushed up to the blonde princess.
"Thank goodness you're here." He squeezed her shoulders.
"What's going on? Why did you ask for me?" She stared up at the dark-haired prince of Earth.
"Mako decided she wanted to give birth naturally and, while I applaud Turles for standing up for her right to choose," he scooted behind Usagi when the Saiyan man began to growl, "I don't condone it."
Usagi sighed as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "Is there any reason she can't have them naturally?"
"Giving birth is already stressful on a mother as is but when giving birth to twins it is even more stressful. Mako will tire out quickly especially consider how big both are. She isn't even at full term and yet both children are estimated to be at least ten pounds. I need your help convincing them it is safer to let us do the C-section. Not to mention," Mamoura reached over and grabbed the two monitors turning them to Usagi and backed them up showing her the patterns on the screen, "baby A is showing signs of tachycardia and baby B's heart rate is dropping dangerously low."
"So, in other words, if this goes on too much longer something bad could happen to Makoto or the br'ats?" She waited for confirmation from Mamoura.
He shook his head yes. "We have an entire emergency team on standby in case she decides to keep being stubborn."
"I got this." She patted Mamoura on the shoulder and walked around the bed to the couple. "Makoto, sit down and rest for now. Turles," she gripped his arm forcing him to look at her as he helped his mate to lay down on the bed, "I know the idea of someone cutting open your mate is terrifying and goes against everything we stand for as far as allowing no harm to come to our mates. You need to hear me out on this, those br'ats, br'ats t'au, are going to be in danger the longer you allow your mate to be stubborn. Having twins is hard enough for a human but Saiyan twins, it is plain dangerous. And I know you won't survive your grief if you lose your mate in ji'shu. Those br'ats are already in distress." She watched as Turles eyes grew wide turning to his mate.
Kneeling before her and taking her face in his hands he forced her to look at him. "R'sha m'yo," he rested his forehead against hers, "I know you want to have the br'ats naturally," he dropped his right hand to her belly and let a small smile grace his lips as he felt one of his children move against his hand, "but it is less dangerous for you and the br'ats to let them operate so please consent. Usagi is right, I can't lose you. Buh'tir?"
Makoto nodded her head yes unable to speak as a strong contraction ripped through her. Once it passed, she looked up to her mate. "Only if Usagi can come with us," Makoto grunted as a contraction ripped through her, "keep Turles from hurting anyone."
The two Saiyans looked at Mamoura for an answer.
"Absolutely! I'm sure the staff will happy to have you in there too." The Earth Prince smiled at Usagi and walked out of the room to inform the staff that they were good to go.
The anesthesiologist came in and administered the epidural numbing her lower half. A nurse handed Usagi and Turles each a fresh change of scrubs and the pair immediately stripped out of the current clothes and into the scrubs in the middle of the room. Once they were done changing Turles stood at the right side of Makoto's bed and Usagi at the left side. Both holding one of her hands as they walked down the hallway to the operating room. The techs set up the sterile field waiting for the doctor and Mamoura to finishing scrubbing so they could gown and glove in order to deliver the twins. The sheets were draped to where Makoto and Usagi couldn't see anything but Turles could. Upon hearing her brother let out a protective growl the blonde grabbed his face in her hand as she reached over Makoto.
"Hey," she spoke in Saiyan, "you don't need to watch this, you can't watch this. They know what they are doing, and you need to trust them. Look at your mate, talk to her." Usagi nodded when Turles hesitantly turned towards Makoto and smiled at her. "Mamoura," she whispered softly to the man next to her watching as he was cutting open her guardian from Jupiter, "everything is going alright, isn't it?"
"Textbook, Usagi. In fact," he bent over slightly and seconds later was picking up a squealing healthy baby with a head full of black hair that matched his father's style and a dark brown tail that thrashed behind him, "your son is perfectly healthy. The nurse is going to take him over to that little bed and clean him up and the next baby will be right over."
"Go Turles," Makoto smiled at him with happy tears in her eyes as she squeezed his hand, "go check on ta'fr m'yau."
"I'll stay with her Turles." Usagi smiled at him and watched as he kissed her forehead before walking over to the cot where his son was squirming and flailing against the nurse trying to clean him.
Turles dropped his hand to the top of his son's head and began to purr soothingly to the small boy. He opened his eyes to see the same vibrant green eyes of his mate staring up at him. He felt a tail wrap around his wrist and a bright smile lit up the tall Saiyan's face. The child stilled allowing the nurse to finish cleaning and dressing him. Turles whispered softly to his son in Saiyan as they kept contact. Once the nurse was done wrapping a blanket around the baby's bottom half and passed the child into his father's waiting arms.
The nurse moved over to the other cot and began cleaning the second child; another boy with his father's hair style only it was brown, and he had traditional black Saiyan eyes and a brown tail that matched his hair. Turles smiled like a fool and crossed over to Usagi placing his first-born son into Usagi's arms and turned back to his newest son and began speaking to him in Saiyan and purring softly. Their dark eyes locked onto one another as the nurse cleaned the small child and dressed him. Turles scooped his son into his arms and crossed over to his mate. He glanced at where the doctors were working and saw that they were cleaning his mate up and bandaging her. He knelt angling their youngest son allowing her to see him clearly.
"My word," Makoto breathed a happy sigh, "they look identical except for their hair and eyes being different."
"The house of Bardock certainly marks their own." Usagi lightly tapped the nose of the dark-haired child in her arms.
The two Saiyans held onto the children and walked beside Makoto's bed through the hospital back to a private room. Once she was settled Usagi handed her the brown-haired son and left the room allowing the small family time to bond and chose names for the newest Saiyan children. Making her way back to the waiting are she found the children passed out as well as some of the adults. Radditz and Tarble walked up to her quickly, her youngest brother passing her a fresh hot cup of coffee.
"How are they?" Radditz asked, a slight nervous edge to his voice.
"They're perfect." She took a sip of her coffee and sighed. "Mako and Turles are now the proud parents of two healthy and very Saiyan little boys. I left before they named them. We'll give them some time to figure that out and wait here till they tell us they are ready for visitors." Usagi stretched on one of the couches as she continued sipping on her coffee.
"When's the last time you ate, sh'fr?" Vegeta crossed over sitting in the chair at the end of the couch next to her head.
"Yesterday? I'm starving now that you mention it." She let out a little chuckle and smiled broadly as she looked at the tray piled high with bacon, eggs over easy, pancakes, grits, French toast, sausage links, syrup, and orange juice. "You really know the way to a Saiyan's heart! D'in Vegeta." She turned sideways setting her coffee on the table beside her. Grabbing the fork, she picked up an entire pancake taking a bite out of it polishing off half the pancake. "So good!" She mumbled with her mouth full of food.
"Tell us about the br'ats." Tarble asked impatient for details.
