(A/N: Okay, this chapter is the moment you've all been waiting for! It's time for the birth of the triplets! Now I'll get this chapter started so you can read it!)
It was a fine summer day in the city of Petropolis. The weather was fine, and the kids were glad to be out of school! Speaking of kids, I remembered that Dudley and Kitty's triplets are due any day now! But I think they're still at T.U.F.F. right now, so let's head on over there!
Sure enough, Dudley and Kitty are at T.U.F.F., and Kitty's taking care of paperwork. She had been doing just that by the end of her first trimester. If she went chasing after bad guys, it wasn't just her life she'd be risking. She'd be risking three more lives that had barely begun, and that she could not do.
"What kind of mother would I be if I risked our kids' lives before they're born? If I want to carry them full-term, I can't go out there and fight. I can just do paperwork." Kitty had told Dudley.
"I understand, Kitty. You're already a good mom to our kids." Dudley told her as he gave her a hug.
Just then, Bruce and Katrina walked up to the couple, and Katrina said, "Guess what?"
"You won a mansion?" Dudley asked.
"No. We just got back from the ultrasound, and we learned our baby's gender." Bruce told them.
"The ultrasound showed it clearly. The baby is a boy! You've got a nephew on the way!" Katrina grinned.
"That's cool! Kitty, did you hear that? We're going to have a nephew!" Dudley said to his wife.
"I heard..." Kitty said, clutching her belly and looking like she was in pain.
"Kitty, are you okay? You don't look so good." Katrina noted, concerned.
"What's wrong?" Bruce asked, also concerned.
"I... I think... it's time." Kitty said, sounding like she was in pain.
"Time for what? Lunch?" Dudley asked.
"No. Time for you to GET ME TO THE HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW!" Kitty screeched.
"You don't mean...?" Dudley asked.
"I do! The kids are coming! Help me out!" Kitty said.
"On it! To the T.U.F.F. Mobile!" Dudley sang as he picked up Kitty and carried her to the vehicle.
"Let's go tell the Chief." Bruce said to his wife, and they made their way to the Chief's office.
The Chief was reading one of his tiny romance novels when he heard someone knocking on the door to his office.
"Come in." the Chief said, hiding the novel behind his back.
Bruce and Katrina walked in, and Bruce said, "Sorry to bother you, Chief, but Dudley and Kitty had to leave early."
"What for?" the Chief asked.
"Kitty's in labor. The triplets are coming!" Katrina said excitedly.
"Oh, wow! That's good news! I just hope that Kitty and her kids will be okay." the Chief said.
Meanwhile, at the hospital...
Dudley was in the room with Kitty as she gave birth to their children. However, we're going to skip the birthing scene. It's not a pretty picture; I don't like writing it!
That afternoon, Kitty finally had the kids. There were two girls and one boy, and the boy was the first one to be born. The best part was, the doctor told them that the kids were perfectly healthy.
"Are you okay, Kitty?" Dudley asked his wife.
"Yeah. I'm glad the kids are okay. And I'm surprised. Did you notice how quickly our daughters were born after our son?" Kitty asked.
"I know. We weren't kept waiting too long for the girls after their brother came out." Dudley said.
"Are you guys up for seeing your kids?" a voice asked from the doorway to the room.
Dudley and Kitty looked in that direction, and they saw me standing there, dressed in a nurse's uniform, and I had their kids in my arms.
"Hellooooooo, Nurse!" Dudley said.
"Nice. Here ya go." I said as I walked over and handed the kids to their parents. Kitty was holding their son, and Dudley held his daughters. To Dudley's happiness, none of the kids looked like Jerkbait. In fact...
"Dudley, you might wanna look at our son. He looks so much like you." Kitty said, smiling as she looked at her son, who was a white puppy with black ears and blue eyes, just like his dad.
Dudley peered at their son, and he saw that Kitty was right.
"You're right. He does look like me. This is great!" Dudley said, grinning like a stupid kid.
"The boy is already a chip off the old block, being the spittin' image of his daddy. Now what's his name?" I asked.
"His name is..." Dudley started, but then he stopped.
"Uh-oh. We totally forgot about names!" Kitty said.
"Now is as good a time as any to come up with some names." I told them.
"We can't give them a stupid or embarrassing name. That's what made Jerkbait the jerk he is." Dudley said.
"Yup. I remember this one time his parents came up and scolded him in front of us, and they called him 'Gaylord'. I wouldn't name a kid that, but he's still a jerk, and the fact that he hates his name doesn't excuse his rotten ways." Kitty said.
"Did you want to name him after me?" Dudley said.
"I don't know, Dudley. You might get confused if we name our son after you." Kitty said.
"Good point." Dudley realized.
Dudley and Kitty were silent for a moment, trying to come up with a name for their son.
"Why don't you name him George?" I suggested.
"George?" Dudley and Kitty asked in unison.
"George is a good name. Because there's George Washington, the father of our country. And George, the quiet Beatle..." I said.
"He does kind of look like a George..." Kitty said, gazing at her son.
"Then it's settled. We will name him George, and we will hug him, and pet him, and squeeze him..." Dudley said.
"Okay, that's one." I said.
"Which of the girls was born first?" Dudley asked.
"That one. The kitten." I said. Dudley looked at the child I was talking about, and he saw that the child looked a lot like a miniature replica of his wife.
"Kitty, you've got to see this baby! She looks like you!" Dudley said.
Kitty got a look at the baby and said, "Aww, she's so sweet! Now let's think of a name for her..."
"We've got to name her something pretty. She needs a name that's as pretty as her, because she looks so much like her pretty mommy." Dudley said, making Kitty blush.
After a few minutes, Kitty said, "How about we name her Molly?"
"Molly?" Dudley asked. He looked at the baby and said, "That's actually a pretty good name for her. She looks like a Molly."
"Now let's see our other daughter." Kitty said.
"The youngest one." I pointed out.
Dudley and Kitty couldn't help going 'awww...' when they saw their youngest child.
The baby was a white puppy with blue eyes, like her brother and father, but her eyes and ears were a cat's ears, and she even had black hair, like her mom and sister. But she was more of a puppy than she was a kitten.
"Okay, I feel like we need to give this little cutie a pretty name, too." Dudley said, admiring his youngest child.
"Let's think..." Kitty said.
Then Dudley said, "Wait a minute. Isn't Summer a girl's name? I know it's the name of a season, but does it work as a girl's name?"
"Yes, Dudley. I know a girl named Summer." I said.
"Kitty, what do you think of naming her Summer?" Dudley asked.
"That is a pretty name. I think it suits her fine." Kitty smiled.
"So the kids are George, Molly, and Summer. Good names." I said.
"Thank you." Dudley and Kitty smiled.
Later that night, Dudley and Kitty texted their friends and family with the news about their kids, and they all showed up the following day to see the triplets.
Even the Chief wanted to see the babies, or 'future T.U.F.F. agents', as he called them.
"They all look like they'll make fine T.U.F.F. agents in the future." the Chief said when he saw the kids.
"That is, if they decide to become T.U.F.F. agents, Chief. The fact that we are should prevent them from becoming bad guys, though." Kitty said.
"Which is a very good thing." Dudley grinned.
Peg and Mrs. Katswell were admiring the babies, commenting on how cute they were and how George and Molly looked like Dudley and Kitty respectively when they were born. Even Bruce couldn't believe how much George looked lke Dudley when he was a baby.
"And look at Summer. She looks like a good combination of Dudley and Kitty." Katrina said, giving a loving smile to her youngest niece, who she was holding in her arms.
"Yeah. She sure is cute. And so is Molly. They're all cute." Bruce said.
"And it's probably getting you excited about the birth of our own son, right?" Katrina asked.
"I can hardly wait." said Bruce, smiling at his wife.
As Keswick and Claire admired the kids, Keswick was glad that Dudley and Kitty's children were okay. But it also made him hope his own baby would be okay.
But we're not gonna find out about Keswick and Claire's babies for a while yet. And the next chapter is going to feature a couple we haven't really focused on that much, but like Dudley and Kitty, they've got triplets on the way, too! Stay tuned to find out what happens!
