Disclaimer: See chapter 1
A/N: This chapter is a little strange, cause it is each person's point of view on the situation, their inner thoughts. Just hope it isn't too weird and works. Let me know what you think, cause I plan to have another few chapters like this.
Chapter 4: Pregnancy POV's
Beka's POV
I couldn't believe it when Trance said those words, "Your Pregnant". I mean, I guess I always wanted kids but with a man I loved and who loved me back. I wanted to start a family, when life wasn't so crazy and dangerous, and I wanted to not have to raise it alone.
Well I guess I'm not alone, I have a family. The crew has been pretty supportive about all of this, though I can't help but want to run away, get away from the staring eyes and constant annoying question of "Are you okay?"
I think I'm still a little confused on how I feel. Although the timing is really off, I can't help but think that no matter what, I want this child. At my second appointment Trance gave me the offer of terminating, as much as it pained her to say it. I turned her down. Even though it is Tyr's child, it's mine too, and as scared as I am, I know I can't destroy my own child.
Rommie's POV
I was surprised to hear that Beka was pregnant, and with Tyr no less. I had always noticed a bit of attraction between the two, but I never thought this was how it would end, him dead and her pregnant with his child. It is even a little weird to say, "Beka's pregnant".
I know she is scared, I've watched her behavior lately. She almost cried every time she told someone. Some nights she even cries herself to sleep. It would be terrifying to anyone, but to raise a child, without its father, in times like these, must be horrifying.
I know she's scared, but I also know she will be a great mom. She is always looking after Harper and Trance as though they were her kids. Even though I very much doubt Trance needs looking after, Beka still gave her the love and support she needed, especially when she was younger and purple. Harper on the other hand always needs looking after, and she did good by him, he's still alive. I just hope that she can except what has happened and do what I know she can.
Dylan's POV
I could always picture Beka as a mom, I just didn't think I would see it this soon and with Tyr. I have noticed that that is that eating at her. The idea of carrying a dead nietzchean's baby. I only refrained from freaking out due to the look in Beka's eyes, this fear and pain. She needed, at that moment, comforting not lectures and words of disbelief and confusion. It was heart wrenching to hear her cry uncontrollably on my shoulder. After all she has been through lately, to pile this on top was just cruel of the divine.
Oh well, I just hope everyone ends up being okay with this, especially Harper. Beka is one of his best friends, his family, yet she has within her one of the few things Harper truly despises.
Rhade's POV
Beka a mother, that is one thing that nietzcheans strive for. As much as Tyr probably didn't mean for it to happen with her, it was in his nature to have it happen. Neitzcheans try for this sort of thing. But Beka, I'm sure, didn't. I could tell in her eyes that this terrified her. She was scared of everything about it.
I know that we had had our problems, especially during her time out of her mind, shall we call it, but I hated to see her like that. It practically ripped my heart out to see her so upset and afraid. I couldn't explain to myself why, but I never want to see her that way again. I don't care what it takes, I will protect her from anything so that I don't have to see her like that ever again.
Harper's POV
Wow, Beka pregnant. I always trusted Beka and had faith that she could take care of herself enough to stay generally out of trouble. Before, she always had, but Dylan sends her to go see Tyr and she returns knocked up. I couldn't believe it. In my heart, I'm scared for her. I mean, raising a nietzchean (well half nietzchean) baby all by herself. But I know she can. I mean come on, she looked after me and Trance all those years.
It's just a bit of a shock. It's hard to imagine boss with a huge pregnant belly and then having a baby with her. Then again I can. But her having a baby with bone blades? Will it have bone blades? I don't know. I think over time I will learn to love it like a niece or nephew, but it is half nietzchean, the scourge of all humans from earth. I will have to except it, as much as I don't want to, for Beka. She's my friend, my boss; I can't abandon her because she made one wrong choice that actually came back and really bit her in the ass.
Trance's POV
I could tell Beka was scared the moment I said it. She wished it not to be true, but it was. I was glad she turned down the other option I offered, but all along I was pretty sure she would make the right choice. Something about the life inside her is special. It will be important to this war, although at this time, I'm not completely sure how.
I just hope no harm will come to Beka or this child, if the abyss learns of it. For if I'm right, the baby could be the way to beat the abyss.
What did you think? Please review, I need to know. Thanks.
Author's note2: Ah, does the title make sense now? If it does, good I win, if not, I just hope it will in just a few more chapters.
