[Okay, I'm an evil woman for not updating. Please forgive me. I was in Fort Worth with my parents for the week. My mom got a job up there so that means that we can start looking for a house and that means that we'll be moving soon and that means that I can start writing the new parts for my POTC story soon. And maybe another one on this story. What do you guys think?]
I hugged Summer with all I had. "Summer! Baby! Are you alright?"
Summer giggled. "Yes, mom. I'm fine." I reached over to hug Stanley V.
"Hey mom." He grimaced and pulled away. "Not in public, okay mom?"
I smiled. "Alright, son."
Libby ran to Vanessa and gave her a hug. "Oh my baby! Are you okay?" Emily stood nearby with her hands in her pockets. Libby looked up and held out her hands to Emily. She looked shocked and ran to her mother with tears spilling onto the ground.
"Mommy! I missed you so much!"
Libby cradled her daughter. "I missed you too, baby." She brought Emily's face up. "I'm sorry for treating you so badly. Can you forgive me for being the evil stepmother?"
Emily laughed. "I could never be mad at you, Mommy." She hugged Libby again and brought Vanessa into the embrace. Magnet stood next to them and smiled, holding back a few sniffles. [Awww!]
After every family had apologized and hugged, Lydia walked over to Me.
"Deyna, I'm sorry about being so rude and irritable towards you."
I smiled. "It's okay, Lydia. I understand." I reached out and she hugged me.
Lydia gave Haylie a look. Haylie took the incentive and turned to Summer.
"Hey, Yelnats. Sorry about, you know, being so mean and disagreeable."
"I forgive you, Haylie." They were about to hug, when I suddenly screamed.
Stanley held me up. "What's the matter?"
I felt of my stomach. "The baby is coming."
We all rushed to the mess hall and I sat down. Everyone started debating about what we should do.
"We should get her home."
"The nearest doctor is 12 hours away."
"She can't have the baby here!"
"She'll never make it to a hospital! She's weak, just like you!"
"Don't you talk that way about my mother!"
Shouting ensued and it did nothing to help my headache. I slowly stood up.
"CEASE!" 32 heads turned to me. "Now, we're all sensible adults...well, most of us and this is just childish. X-Ray, you take your family to the tents and get some sufficient bedding. Take it to the Warden's cabin and set it up. Magnet, take your family and go unload the food in the van. Squid, take your family and go through the camp. See what you can scavenge as far as furniture, papers, that sort of thing, then load it into the bus. Twitch, take your family and go work on the van. It sounded kind of funny the last mile. ZigZag, take your family and go check to see if the old bus will still run. We need it to transport everyone. Zero, take your family and go boil some water. Find some clean towels, some scissors and a small tub. Armpit, take your family and see what you can do with the food that's in the kitchen." Everyone stayed where they were. I growled. "Well, get to it!"
After about half an hour, everyone had at least started their tasks. Stanley and the twins helped me over to the Warden's cabin and set me down on the bedding that X-Ray had put up.
X-Ray walked in with his group and smiled. "I put up the bedding, just like you asked." I smiled and settled down on my pillows.
Magnet marched in with his family. "We unloaded the food and put most of it in the fridge." I sighed and nodded.
Squid's clan walked in. "We found some furniture, some files, a pool table and we loaded them up, along with the tents." I grumbled my approval.
Twitch's posse strolled in. "The van's working fine now." I grunted my reply.
ZigZag's group walked in. "The bus is up and running too. We even opened all of the windows too." I was growing impatient.
Zero walked in with his family. "Here's the water, tub, towels and scissors." I growled.
And following them was Armpit's group. "We inspected the food. We had to throw out most of it, but there is some left." Everyone smiled at me.
"GET OUT OF THIS ROOM! GET OUT!" I shouted.
Everyone ran out, but Armpit managed to say something before the door shut.
"What's the matter with her? Did a house fall on her sister?"
I threw a pillow at the door. "If you had seven families bugging you while you are trying to have a baby, you would scream too, Theodore Ansley!" I yelled at the door.
About an hour later, full in the middle of a contraction, Squid burst in the door.
"Deyna!"
I screamed as the contraction subsided. "Squid, when I get out of here, I will personally have to-"
"No, Deyna! It's important! Your brother Nelson is here."
I settled down on the mattress. "I don't have a brother, Squid."
A man walked in and stood beside Squid. "Yes, Deyna, you do."
I stared, dumbfounded, at the man in the doorway. He was the spitting image of Pendanski.
"Deyna, I have searched long and hard for you. I am so glad that I've-"
"Yes, I'm sure that you can explain all of it, but I am kind of busy at the moment as you can see."
"I am sorry, sister." He smiled and left the room.
I flopped back onto my pillows. I groaned. "First I find out that the Warden is my aunt, then that Mr. Sir is my uncle because Lynn is my aunt and now I have a brother named Nelson. When will it all end? Next thing you know, I'll have a sister name Sig- AAAAAH!" Contraction.
Five hours later...
Stanley lay down next to me, and started running a cold rag up and down my head and neck.
I smiled and opened my eyes. "Where's the baby?"
He leaned down and kissed my forehead. "Lydia's washing them off."
"Them?" Lydia and Libby came over to me, each holding a baby in their arms.
Lydia smiled. "It's a boy."
"And a girl," Libby finished.
I reached out to take them and held the tiny infants in my arms. "Twins... again." I smiled weakly as Stanley rested his head on mine.
"Blake, and Ella," he said with a grin.
I nodded my approval. "And just think. They were born at Camp Green Lake."
He smiled again. "That's where it all began."
The End.
