It was a warm, rainy day; Kyo was fast asleep in his room, like he always did on rainy days. Yuki was watching a movie TV, Midnight was bustling around, Shigure was working on something and Tohru was out shopping.
"Midnight-san, what are you running around for?" asked Yuki as he watched the goddess's servant run by, again.
"The other day I got a message from Lady Fuuhime," replied Midnight.
Yuki got unsteadily to his feet, he and Kyo were in their final month and could go into labor at any time.
"Alright, what's the message?" asked the Rat.
She sighed at the look on his face and said, "She told me to perpare because a child would be born today...Kyo's child."
"Come on!" said Yuki, heading up the stairs.
'Prehaps this time the Love of the Cat and Rat will prevail,' thought Midnight as she followed Yuki up the stairs.
When they reached the top of the stairs they heard a cry of pain coming from Kyo's room. Yuki and Midnight burst into the room, which Midnight had set up without waking Kyo. She set right to work; removing Kyo's soaked pants and underwear and getting him into the birthing position. Kyo let out a small mew as another contraction hit.
"Shh...Kyo, everything will be alright," said Yuki, trying to comfert Kyo.
"Yuki...I'm scared," whispered Kyo.
"It's ok, I'm here," Yuki wispered back.
"Kyo, get ready becase during the next contraction you need to push," said Midnight.
Kyo bit his lip then nodded.
"Push!" said Midnight.
Tears rolled down Kyo's face as he pushed. They heard the baby cry as it's face emeraged.
"Kyo, you're doing great, keep it up," ecouraged Yuki.
Soon Kyo held a new born baby boy. On the baby's head was some orange fuzz, the same shade as Kyo's hair but his eyes were the same color as Yuki's.
Suddenly, the rest of the Zodiacs came busteling in with bears, ballons, and bubble gum cigars with the words, 'It's A Boy' on them.
"Look at me, I'm Babe Ruth!" said Momiji doing a pose with a gum cigar is mouth/
Kyo was exsausted so he wasn't at the party and the baby was asleep. Hatsuharu snorted into his rice ball.
"Uh...Momiji, Babe Ruth was an American. And he wasn't giggling when he that," said Hiro.
"Be nice Hiro-chan," said Kisa.
"Yes ma'am," said Hiro and everyone laughed.
