Chapter Thirteen
Brings good luck
The doctor cradled the baby in her arms,
"Raven. I-I'm so sorry." She stuttered, with much a powerful emotion in her voice.
"What! What's wrong!" Raven frantically asked with fear in her voice.
"Raven, y-you gave birth t-to a...stillborn."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Beast Boy paced the floor, asking for the thousandth time
"Do you think he'll have green skin?" Starfire yawned and slumped in her chair. Robin looked at the Titans, it was two in the morning, and they were all exhausted.
"Beast Boy." He barked
"Yes?"
"I think you should take a look on how Raven's doing, and give us a review." Beast Boy nodded.
"Yeah, good idea."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Raven buried her face in the pillow, trying not to release the anger and sadness building up. But suddenly, the doctor spoke.
"Raven, there is something we can do. It's worked before, but I need both the parents' permission to perform it." Raven jolted up.
"I-it's worked before?" She shakily asked. The doctor nodded, still holding the baby in her arms.
"I can understand if you don't want to it's completely fine." She said, and stood up to walk over to Raven. She handed the little cold baby to her, and Raven took him gratefully.
Suddenly Beast Boy walked in, and his eyes widened. Raven spoke quickly for him.
"Could you leave us alone for just a second?" The doctor nodded, and began to pull of her gloves while walking out.
"What happened?" Beast Boy asked, getting on the bed and looking sincerely at the baby.
"Why isn't he moving?" He asked with a little bit of panic in his voice.
"H-he's not breathing! Raven what" Raven interrupted him.
"I gave birth to a stillborn Beast Boy."
There was a moment of awkward silence.
"You mean he's...dead?" Raven looked away,
"The doctor says they might be able to save him. Only if they get permission from us." She said with a shaky voice. Beast Boy nodded,
"Anything."
Dr. Gurts walked in, and eyed the two sitting on the bed.
"Am I interrupting anything?" She asked. They both shook their heads,
"Dr. Gurts, we-we'd really like it for you to perform the operation, or whatever you do to save our son." Beast Boy choked out,
"We'll do anything." The doctor looked at the two, and walked slowly over and took the baby from Raven's arms. She nodded and turned around quickly, and was joined by a nurse with a clipboard.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Beast Boy wheeled Raven out of the room in a wheel-chair, for she was too weak to stand.
"So how'd the delivery go?" Beast Boy started the conversation but stopped when the other Titans ran up to them.
"Where is the baby?" Starfire asked and looked around. Raven bowed her head,
"Beast Boy, let me explain." She said, and Beast Boy reluctantly nodded.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
After the Titans had heard the story, they sat in the waiting room, occasionally carelessly flipping a page of a magazine. But suddenly the door to the operation room slammed open. They looked up quickly, and Robin dropped his magazine in surprise.
Dr. Gurts motioned quickly for them to follow her and they did, Beast Boy and Raven in the lead.
She led the Titans to a large glass wall. Raven looked in and saw about twenty new babies, all in blue or pink. The parents' names were on small cards on the cradles holding the babies. Dr. Gurts pointed at one, and Beast Boy read the card out loud.
"Child of Raven and Garfield!" He shouted. Starfire screeched with happiness and gave Robin a "Luna Hug". Raven looked at the child, who was a slight tinge of a spring green.
"What are you naming him?" Dr. Gurts asked kindly and Raven and Beast Boy looked at each other. They hadn't thought of a name yet.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
