I don't own the Mighty Ducks, Disney does.

The Birds and the Bees

Chapter 1

Mallory had not been feeling very well for the past several days. She had been throwing up in the mornings and feeling nauseous in general, but she hadn't told anyone, not even her husband, Wildwing. She did not want to trouble him; he already had enough to worry about. She felt bad about not telling him, but she was hiding it from him because she loved him with all of her heart.

It was around midday and Mallory was sitting in the room she and her husband shared; she was trying to think of what could be affecting her.

'I could have stomach flu,' she thought. 'No, stomach flu wouldn't last for over a week like this has.'

Her second thought was that she could possibly be pregnant.

'No, there's no way that I could be pregnant, I've had my… Oh my word, I haven't…'

Her train of thought stopped when Wildwing entered the room. He took a seat next to Mallory on the bed and put an arm around her shoulder.

"Hi, honey," he said, looking down at her with love in his eyes.

Mallory was in no mood to be with or near anyone. She felt tired, weak, and her sickness was coming and going. She moved Wildwing's arm off of her shoulder and moved a slight distance away.

"Yeah, hi," she said, with a strange look on her face.

"What's the matter?" Wildwing's voice held a tinge of hurt at Mallory's distancing behavior. As he thought about it, she hadn't wanted to be near or with him lately, she was changing and he did not know why. Her lack of reciprocation in the affections department was beginning to hurt his feelings.

"Nothing's the matter, honey," Mallory said, while getting up, getting her purse and heading for the door. She did not want to talk to him; the last thing she wanted to discuss was what was wrong with her. It was too new and she wasn't ready.

"Where are you going?" Wildwing asked with a voice filled with fear, worried that he and his wife were growing apart.

"I'm going to the mall, okay?" She stated what she had to and was gone instantly afterwards, giving Wildwing no opportunity to say anything else.

Wildwing sat on their bed in total confusion and hurt, deciding to lie down and think until Nosedive required saving from another of his idiotic actions. He felt as if it was all he was worth doing these days.

At the mall, Mallory shopped at all of the stores that were holding a sale. She decided to pick up a Jamba Juice, it was one of the many cravings she had been having lately. Mallory sipped on her juice, beginning to realize that she was going to gain a good amount of weight, she already felt fat and ugly even though she hadn't gained an ounce. She was about to head home when a new store caught her eye.

"Baby Land, huh? I'm going to go check it out," she thought, entering the store.

Inside she found mountains of baby things, but one particular item caught her eye, a tiny Mighty Ducks jersey with Flashblade and the number "00" written on the back. It was Wildwing's number, so of course she had to get it. At the checkout stand, Mallory was getting ready to pay when suddenly a sharp pain hit her stomachShe screamed so loud that everyone instantly stopped in their tracks as they tried to find the source of the anguished sound.

"Ma'am? Are you okay?" The cashier asked Mallory with a concerned look in his eye.

With that, Mallory fell on the floor with a thump and fainted.
