Chapter 78: Tomorrow Never Comes Easy

Mew and Riku made a beeline for Sancturia and then started running around the city looking for a hospital closest to the Aurora household.

Mew was pretty excited about this, thinking to himself, "Oh boy Shina's finally having her baby! I can't wait to see them. Are they going to look just like Alex, or her? I wonder how strong they'll be! Oh many, I'm practically sweating with excitement here!"

They finally found the general hospital somewhere wedged between the south end of the city and the center and rushed inside, Mew pushing through the line to get to the front counter.

The front desk lady was taken aback by Mew's blatant enthusiasm and asked of him, "C-Can I help you sir?"

"Yeah I'm here for Shina Aurora! She's here having a baby!" Mew said, grinning from ear-to-ear.

The lady put down her phone and stared at him like a lunatic which, if we're being fair, is the right call to make right now.

"Oh, let me guess, you must be one of the...Elemental Overlords, right?" She inquired in a rather sharp-tongued way.

"Yep!" Mew bobbed his head vigorously, "I'm the kids' god-errr, uncle! Uncle! Yeah!"

"Well Shina Aurora's not here. We don't handle pregnancies at this facility," The lady turned away back to her phone and the brushed the bottom of her right hand out, "Now run along, you're holding up the line."

"Whaaaa?" Mew's jaw slacked completely dumbfounded and he backed out of the line to catch up with Riku, giving him a puzzled glance, "They say they don't handle pregnancies here."

"Is there another building we have to go to?" Riku asked.

"Possibly? Maybe we ought to see if Auris is still at home packing and ask her."

"Where the hell are you?!" Auris' voice suddenly went blaring into both their heads.

"Oh hey, perfect timing," Mew took the matter in stride and put a hand to the side of his head to reply, "Auris, we need to fin-"

"You know how to get to our house! Are you taking a scenic detour at this crucial moment?!"

Mew flinched and responded with his eyes wide-open, "Uhhh, no? We're trying to find the hospital Shina's at. You guys are still at home though?"

"..." Suddenly there were groans of frustration heard on the other side and Auris mumbled apologetically, "Forgive me, sometimes I forget you're not accustomed to our way of living."

Mew fluttered his eyes until Auris told him, "Just get to our house and Gabriel will explain."

"AAAAAAAAAAH!"

Mew and Riku recoiled as they heard a painful, gut-wrenching scream in the background.

"I am very, VERY preoccupied." Worn down and a little angry, Auris cut the line right then and there.

"Holy shit..." Mew's skin turned a little pale as his mouth ran off on its own tirade of panic, "Was that...the sounds of childbirth?!"

Everyone presently in the lobby let out a collective groan, a couple screaming "GET OUT!" to which Riku complied by grabbing Mew by the arm and dragging him out.

The brothers then sped straight towards the Aurora household and shoved through the front door like a pair of wild bulls. Mew stumbled into the living room and announced his presence, "Alright, we're here!"

"Not so loud you two." Gabriel entered from the kitchen carrying a glass of water that he drank from.

"Ah, there you are, Gabriel!" Mew wasted no time and leaped over both couches to get to him, Riku taking the more normal route around them.

"So what's going on with the pregnancy? Auris was kind of vague about it."

Suddenly the whole ceiling rattled and dislodged dust on top of their heads. Mew bent down in a grimace and stared up at the ceiling wondering, "And while we're at it, what's up with the racket?"

"Yes well, come," Gabriel withdrew his glass to his side and then wandered around to the couch, "Take a seat. We have a lot to discuss."

Mew and Riku sat down opposite of him as he finished his glass, his green skin glistening with sweat. He let out a hefty sigh and then sank into the cushion, making the couch creak.

Another wail came from upstairs, this time inflicting the fear of God into Mew's soul, "I-Is that SHINA?!"

"Yes, it is." Gabriel spoke without hesitation.

Mew's eyes bulged but it was Riku who commented on their shared surprise, "She's having the baby here?"

"Is that SAFE?" Mew gagged a little at the thought, "Or...sanitary?"

"Do not worry yourselves over the baby's well-being. This is normal for Aurians," Gabriel satiated their concerns for the time being, offering little more than the basics of what's going down for the time being, "Bloodlines are connected both physically and spiritually. During the birthing process a newborn would feel uncomfortable if in the presence of a stranger's aura. Thus, someone from the same bloodline is tasked with guiding the newborn out of the cervix."

"So random doctors are a no-go eh?" Mew nodded in an understanding fashion, "Makes sense to me. I just hope Auris is up to it..."

Gabriel smiled warmly, "She's had plenty of experience. I could think of no one more qualified."

Another scream came from up above and even Gabriel joined in the frightful expressions. He settled down the fastest with a couple of dry coughs, then proceeded to take his glass back to the kitchen for a refill.

Mew leaned back against the couch and looked up at the ceiling, which rattled from Shina's struggles with labor, and presumably Auris' attempts to keep her calm.

"Thank god there's like a wall of steel between these floors..." Mew sat in unease with every noise he heard from up above.

He leaned out and bridged his hands underneath his chin. His skin, riddled with goosebumps, began to exude sweat after just a few minutes.

He glanced aside at his quiet brother and cracked a joke, "Ha, good thing Alex didn't make us into girls, huh?"

Riku's brows arched and he growled at him, "Brother could you please just shut up for once?"

Mew scooted away slowly and noticed that Riku seemed to be on edge. His skin was white as a sheet and he was trembling all over.

Mew was on the precipice of asking what was up when he clamped his lips shut and looked away, feeling unsafe to prod the lion's den.

Finally Gabriel returned with a plate of glasses, one for each of them. He lamented the situation with a fair bit of advice, "Prepare to drink a lot of water. We'll be here a while."

Mew drank from his cup immediately but Riku didn't even budge, staring at the glass with a cold, quiet look on his face.

Mew eyed him and asked, "Is everything ok?"

Riku remained motionless, save for when the sounds up above forced his body to squirm. Mew tipped his glass against his lips then took another heavy drink, setting it back on the table.

He then looked to Gabriel to help kill any sense of awkwardness in the air, "Sooo uhhh..."

Gabriel didn't respond either. So Mew let out a couple rough coughs and he raised his head, his attention more than grabbed.

"Does Kairi know what's going on?"

"She's been made aware and has been allowed to leave school early," Gabriel assured him, "But I imagine she's making sure that someone will watch over Maria until this is over."

Mew bobbed his head and remarked, "Good call. She's too young to be exposed to this."

His eyes then widened and he snapped his fingers up by his face, "Oh! I should probably get in contact with the others."

"Yes, I can imagine they'd want to be here for this." Gabriel remarked.

"Especially Joe! He's about to be an Uncle!" Mew had a bright smile at the thought before it slowly dawned on him that, "...Oh wait, shoot! Him and Alura still got to be at work for a few hours. He's totally going to miss this!"

"Ha ha, I get the feeling he wouldn't enjoy the noise," Gabriel said with a wry chuckle, "Still, probably for the best if you let him know anyways. So he'll be here to see the baby afterwards."

"Alright. I'll do that," Mew then turned to Riku and tried to pry some semblance of life out of him, "Hey do you know how to get in contact with Lunis?"

Riku turned his head a little and murmured, "S-Sorry, I don't."

Mew spat in disbelief then turned to Gabriel, who stood up and made a kindly gesture towards the two of them, "Fear not. I just so happen to have Solaris' number on hand. Leave them to me...Assuming he doesn't try and hang up."

Gabriel bemoaned with a sigh and then made his way back towards the kitchen to handle the phone calls. In this brief respite Mew sat back down and fiddled his fingers around together, staring up at the ceiling as more dust became dislodged from it.

His heart started to flutter. The mood was benign at the moment but there was no doubt that anxiety weighed on everyone's minds.

He craned his head back and tried to keep Shina's health in his thoughts, hoping it'd help give her and the baby strength to carry on.

"Maybe I should go up and try to help...?" He curbed that thought immediately, "No, I don't have a place there."

He thought about how the baby might be doing. If its breathing, crying, or struggling to wiggle free. He didn't really know a lot about how this worked and, even if he did, a human's way of handling pregnancies seemed to have no place here.

With Gabriel off the phone and back in his seat before him, Mew looked him in the eyes and began to open his mouth when suddenly...

"Ha...! Ha...! HA!" Kairi could be heard panting louder and louder behind him until finally, she burst right through the door shouting at the top of her lungs, "WHERE IS SHE?!"

She slapped her hand against the door frame as Mew turned back, paralyzed with fear. Her body was dripping with sweat and her pupils as tiny as beads.

With an uneasy raise of the hand Gabriel pointed upstairs and Kairi immediately dashed for them, ignoring the man's warning of "But I wouldn't go up there".

Like an ancient evil awakening from its tomb, a piercing wail was unleashed upon the group as Kairi forced open the door.

"SIS, GET OUUUUUTTT!" Screamed Shina, shunning Kairi with an intense mixture of pain, pleasure, and tears.

Kairi slammed the door and slowly, but surely, inched her way down the stairs with her face a fluorescent shade of pink.

She dragged her feet over to Gabriel's couch, and plopped down beside him, sinking into the soft, supple leather until stopped by the table before her.

Gabriel brought her closer for comfort and Kairi held her hands against his chest, staring off into the distance, unable to say a word.

Mew waited a half-hour for Kairi to settle down and relax more comfortably in her seat. Still shaken, as evidenced by her saying "I-I'll be fine", she nevertheless took a deep breath and focused on calming her beating heart.

"I'll go get us some more water." Gabriel excused himself for the time being, leaving Mew and Kairi practically all alone to have a little heart-to-heart.

Mew leaned up from his couch with a chuckle and a grin, telling her nonchalantly, "Excited?"

"Nervous..." Kairi sandwiched her fist between her chest and huffed out a sigh, "She just looked so...uncomfortable up there. Her face was red, her body was sweating, her legs were locked up and mom was all bent over her with plastic gloves and all this liquid was spilling out and-"

Mew snapped his fingers to stop her mad ranting then looked her square in the eyes to say, "Settle down. Everything's going to be ok. Your mom's got this."

Kairi stared back completely aghast and stuttered, "E-Easy for you to say, you're not the one having the baby...!"

"And neither are you," Mew said in a rare moment of wisdom, "Your sister wouldn't want you to share her pain. Just think positively and she'll get through it fine."

"...Y-You're right," Kairi mumbled, raising her head to let out a certain declaration of, "But I will never, EVER go through childbirth myself!"

"Don't say that now." Mew said with a dry chuckle, earning him a hot glare from Kairi's right eye that forced him into a retreat.

Gabriel returned right after with more drinks to dish out to all of them. He then looked towards Mew and said, "Ah yes I almost forgot. Lunis said she'll be here within the hour."

"Oh, good!" Mew let off a celebratory clap, but then it dawned on him, "Though, hopefully she won't get squeamish."

"Hmmm, that could be a problem..." Gabriel bemoaned.

"Hopefully this doesn't scare her..." Riku whispered timidly under his breath, and began to fiddle his fingers around in much a manner similar to how Mew was moments ago.

Mew stared at him momentarily and then back to Gabriel, "Oh yeah speaking of stuff almost getting forgotten, I wanted to ask..."

Gabriel poked his head up and said, "Have some more questions about childbirth?"

"Yeah actually," Mew bobbed his head and then pointed up at the ceiling, "Now uhhhh, I ain't no expert on the subject but uhhh..."

As if on cue the ceiling rattled extra hard and Mew grimaced painfully, "Is that...supposed to be happening?"

Gabriel rubbed his chin and told him, "Would you believe me if I said this is pretty light, all things considered?"

Mew AND Kairi's jaws went agape and for a brief moment it looked like Gabriel wasn't going to continue onward out of concern that he'd break their poor young minds.

Mew, however, gestured his hand out and continued feeding him reasons not to stop, "So this screaming, home-shaking stuff is...normal."

"Oh yes, absolutely," Gabriel stated in stride, but then eyed Mew with a sincere look of doubt on his face, "I do not wish to make you ill. If I continue, it'll get very graphic. I can already imagine your mind has painted a painful image of what's happening to poor Shina."

"T-Tell him!" Kairi suddenly blurted out, "I want to know sis' going to be ok!"

Gabriel bowed his head and then took a stand, "Very well you two."

He then began to pace around the couches as he imparted his expertise, maturing the two's minds with talks of the nature of birth and life among Aurians.

"When I said childbirth is more spiritual than that of a human's, there were more layers to it than what I mentioned at the time. Remember back when you first learned that Shina was pregnant, and you were concerned about the baby's well-being?"

Mew raised his hand and remarked, "Oh yeah, and Auris mentioned how there's a delay in conception?"

"Yes, and it relates to the pain Shina is suffering through now," Gabriel's tone went somber as he mustered up the courage to continue, his eyes closed throughout, "All Aurian life begins with Aura, and ends in Aura. We are given life, so it can be returned at the end of days, and given to another."

He gestured his hand out towards Kairi, her wrist in particular, "You are not the first to wield the Beast Tamer Drive, Kairi. Nor am I the first to wield my Nature Drive."

As Kairi stared at her bracelet, he continued on his way, "Before the embryo fully forms, it forms a protective cocoon of aura around its parents' womb, attaching itself much like a spider does to its egg sac. Then, through that physical bond, the embryo directly connects with the Aura via its parents' pre-established bond. The Aura then observes the child and decides what Drive or Drives it shall one-day wield."

"So when they die, their Drives can be recycled?" Mew inquired.

"Exactly," Gabriel waved his hand up and remarked, "Some day when I pass, my Drive will be wielded by another. Maybe that person will be a descendant of yours, Kairi. Or perhaps one of Shina's. Someday, you could even wind up having a child that inherits a Drive long unused since ancient times."

"Oh cool," Mew started grinning, "I wonder what Drive Shina's kid is going to get!"

"That's not necessarily a guarantee, Mew." Gabriel said, taking on a more firm tone of voice.

Kairi sprung her head up muttering, "T-There can't be complications...can there?"

Gabriel rubbed his chin and hummed, thinking best how to approach this topic, "Nothing of a harmful sort, that much I can assure you. But given who the father is, well..."

"Alex did something to her child...?!" Kairi was quick to anger, just as Gabriel was quick to quell it.

"Possibly, but let me explain..." Gabriel opened one eye towards her and recollected what he knew, "There was one instance in the past of an Aurian having a child with someone from the Elemental Tribes. That child had no capability to wield a Drive of her own. Its entirely possible that the Aura interprets any outside blood as an invader and weakens the child as to not let its power be shared by those it deems unworthy."

"But Alex had Aurian blood from his parents so it should be fine, yeah?" Mew remarked.

"You forget that your father was from the Elemental Tribes, and Alex nor Joe Dark have a Drive to call their own." Gabriel countered with.

He then looked at Kairi and told her gently, "As Catherine would say, there's not enough information available to substantiate this theory. But rest assured, Alex's involvement shouldn't have harmed the baby."

Kairi settled slowly into the couch.

"...Now where was I?" Gabriel got them back on track with the grace of a swan, "Ah, right. So now that you understand how close Aurians are during conception, there's the matter of the actual birthing process."

"Yeah, I think I get it so far..." Mew puckered his lips and thought to himself, "Though I wouldn't really call it graphic..."

Gabriel closed his eyes and rubbed his beard, "Over time the shell protecting the baby grows as it does...But it never breaks on its own. This goes back to what I said about childbirth requiring a familial bond. If the shell does not recognize the bloodline's aura, it will collapse upon the baby and crush it."

Mew's heart skipped a beat and he felt sick to his stomach, putting a hand before his mouth prematurely.

Gabriel continued nevertheless. This is what they demanded of him after all, so they must live with the consequences.

"And even when the bloodline is recognized, the person must reach into the cervix and slowly dismantle the shell by hand, moving their hands carefully around the womb until there is enough room for the baby to start wiggling free."

"A-And then after that its...just like normal childbirth, huh?" Mew said, half-heartedly laughing, "With all the...gooey, sticky stuff that comes with it...?"

"Yes, all the placenta and blood must be em-"

"AH! Please stop! Please please please for the love of god STOP!" Kairi threw her head between her knees and slammed her hands against her ears, "I heard enough! Never having a child! Never! Ever! EVER!"

Mew blinked a couple times and then him and Gabriel stared at each other for a good long while. Then Mew gestured at him with one last question, "So how does this work with twins...?"

Kairi threw her head up face red as a beet and screamed through her scowling teeth, "Don't. Encourage him!"

Mew sheepishly retracted against the couch and crossed his arms, resting his heels up on the table. Gabriel then sat back down, or rather, tried to, before the thick tension between him and Kairi made it impossible for either to bear and he made the sacrifice to stay standing.

Now nobody wanted to talk, cause there was nothing left to say, and the mood didn't call for idle chatter. They all sat still with their respective thoughts kept cleanly in their heads.

The struggles kept coming from up above. Shina was tough. But this was too much for her to bear.

Yet this would be the last pain she'd ever have to suffer, before she'd finally be able to truly enjoy happiness. The baby's face may remind her of Alex, but there will always be happy memories to go with the sad ones.

The baby's life is proof that Alex was alive. That he did something positive, made an impact on someone else's life.

Mew clasped his hands together and stared up to the ceiling in prayer, his heart beating loudly against his chest.

Time seemed to slow to a crawl, but the noise began to subside upstairs.

Everyone craned their head back and stared.

Utter silence. Not a word between them.

Shina was quiet. Auris was quiet.

Mew felt a terrible unease welling in the pit of his stomach for a brief moment. A disturbance coming from the room above...

This wasn't the baby...was it?

There were cries coming from above. They started out soft, then began to slowly get louder.

There was only one person crying.

It was not a cry of joy.

Footsteps came from the stairs. Mew hesitated to turn his head towards it, and watch Auris slowly walk her way down.

Her eyes were closed but her face looked tired. There were stains all over her robe and hair and her skin looked pale and discolored.

She stopped at the last step and gripped the edge of the railing.

Kairi stood up, gripping her fists tightly against her chest, her mouth mid-gasp.

Auris stared at her, unable to maintain eye contact for long. She closed her eyes, and with a tiny frown, began to shake her head.

Kairi lost all color in her face and scrambled to the stairs without saying another word. Then she was lost to the darkness, and the misery that awaited her beyond it.

Gabriel rose with a terrifying creak and walked towards the stairs like a lumbering zombie, putting his hand on Auris' shoulder and offering only his melancholic sigh.

Then Auris looked towards Mew and his blank, emotionless face. Her eyelids creaked open quietly, like she wanted to say "I'm sorry", only for her to retreat back upstairs.

Mew collapsed upon himself inward and outward, sliding back against the rough surface of the couch and staring up towards the ceiling.

Shina's cries echoed in his ears, and damned his soul.

"Why...?" He asked, as any normal person would, "This...this is a joke, right?"

The sun was shimmering brightly outside, yet this world was so dark and cold.

Mew denied the absurdity of this moment as fantasy, an illusion. Surely he could attribute this tragedy to some villain he could punch.

But this was simply what life had the power to deliver upon the world.

For every death, there is birth.

For every birth, there is death.

There were some things that could only be explained in rational terms, even if the act in of itself was mean-spirited and cruel.

And Shina was just, yet again, another victim of this cruel, logical world.

Mew held his hands against his face and felt like he had to scream. No tears welled up on his face, no matter how much his chest hurt.

He just wanted the crying to stop. He wanted to wake up to a happy world. But that wasn't possible anymore. This was his present. Misery was her future.

He slowly peeled his hands off his face as the crying began to subside. It was only a momentary absence of the sound. Shina was simply too exhausted to keep this going for now.

Mew slammed the back of his head against the head of the couch and muttered frustratingly, "This is bullshit...!"

He looked to his left and his brother was still there, somehow maintaining that same tense, contemplative pose, his skin even whiter than it was moments ago.

Finally, his first words in a long while came out, "Shina's child didn't make it..."

He bridged his hands over his eyebrows to cover his face, letting out a panicked groan of, "God...if that were to happen to Lunis too, I..."

Mew's heart skipped a beat as he began to stare at his brother, looking at him in a new, puzzled light.

"What...what did you just say, Riku?"

Riku withdrew his hands from his face and stared at Mew with his eyes wobbling, like he couldn't reconcile the fact that his thoughts just overpowered his voice.

Mew wasn't a fool this time. In hindsight, Riku had been dropping a lot of hints throughout the day that something of this nature was going on. This final slip of the tongue was the nail in the coffin.

Mew cautiously reached out towards Riku and put it all together in one inquiry, "Riku, did you and Lunis...?"

"I...I did..." Riku stared blankly towards an abyss of utter regret and forced a smile, "God help me, I did..."

Mew's stomach curled, a conflict of emotions ranging from happiness to sadness duking it out inside. On one hand, he wasn't mad at his brother. But...was now really the time to congratulate him either? Not even Riku seemed to think so.

Mew had questions, first and foremost, "...When?"

Riku craned his head back to look at the ceiling, "It was Christmas Eve. She had just finished confessing her love to me and I...I wasn't confident enough to admit my feelings back."

He turned away, rubbing the back of his head with a strained sense of amusement at his predicament, "She...she kissed me on the lips and all of a sudden its like my mind just..."

He gripped onto what little hair he had and said through a bitter scowl, "We lost control of ourselves. I, lost control of myself...Its like my body wouldn't respond to a single thing I wanted it to do. We wrapped each other up in our embrace and by the time we were aware of our surroundings again, it was morning. We had had sex throughout the entire night."

"Tsk...! And the next thing we knew, Lunis was pregnant." Riku's entire explanation was wracked with guilt, the worst it had ever gotten for him.

But Mew hung his head and could barely contain his happiness for the two. He smiled, and a few words were let slip free, "T-That's great though. I mean...you do love her, right?"

"Of course I do!" Riku turned back around and lashed his hand out at Mew, "I would never abandon her or my daughter!"

Mew's eyes brightened and he truly couldn't contain his excitement now, "I-Its going to be a girl?!"

Riku forced his hand over Mew's mouth and told him, "K-Keep it down! I don't want anyone else here to find out yet!"

Riku slowly peeled his hand away and drooped his arms down with a sigh, "Yes, its going to be a girl...She'll be due in six months...Hopefully."

His head turned away, his tone tinged with melancholy.

"Riku..." Mew worried for his brother. What happened to Shina was the worst thing that could have possibly happened to his mental state.

"...Who else does know besides me?" Mew murmured.

"Solaris and Samantha. She picked up on it instantly..." Riku replied, all color flushed from his face.

"Well I don't think you'll be able to keep it a secret for much longer." Mew told him with sincere honesty.

"I-I know that but...!" Riku stopped and began to tremble. He stared Mew right in the eyes, leaving him with a sinking feeling in his chest as Riku uttered with the frailty and vulnerability of a child, "Mew...I'm scared."

"..." Mew silently reached out to pat his brother on the shoulder and tell him, "I think you'll make a great dad."

Riku laid his hand on his and murmured, "If I even get a chance to..."

Mew pulled his head back and Riku let his hand go.

"I've spent countless nights lately lying awake and thinking about what Justek told us about the 'higher-ups'," Riku bridged his hands below his tired eyes, "And now between Lunis' pregnancy and what happened between you and Beerus I find myself wondering 'How long are we safe for?'"

"We've kept the planet safe for now but eventually there could be an evil that we can't stop...Or those 'higher-ups' may choose to wipe us out in the blink of an eye. I could train day and night from here until the baby's born and still not be strong enough...!"

"Does that sound fair, Mew...? To bring her into a world where she might not be able to live a full life? Or one where her father might die before she reaches her first birthday?" Riku's whole body trembled, his eyes caving in with an unsettling unease as he looked prepared to cry, "I just want what's best for my family, but how can I protect them if I can never be stronger than an enemy we've never even seen?!"

He suddenly lashed out, clinging desperately to Mew's shoulder with his bitter ridden face pleading to him, "Please Mew, I need you to tell me there's something we can do! Give me some hope, any hope!"

He pushed his teary eyes against Mew's chest and whimpered out, "I-I just want my daughter to be able to smile every morning..."

Mew was paralyzed from head-to-toe, his hid mind echoing the same frustration he felt earlier, "This is bullshit...!"

He stared at his brother's head and felt the weight of his misery pressing against his heart by the tons.

"What was I thinking? We were never going to be able to ignore this..." He patted Riku on the back of the head and held him in closer, "We'll never know true peace while the 'higher-ups' shadow lingers. Something has to change...No matter the cost."

He drifted away from Riku and stood up, turning his back towards him and giving his aching muscles a bit of a stretch, ending by grabbing the back of his neck and cricking his head around.

Riku laid on the couch with his tears dripping onto the leather and mumbled, "B-Brother...?"

"Haaaaa..." Mew tucked his hands in his pockets and remarked, "Sorry Riku, there's something I got to do on my own."

"W-What?" Riku wondered.

Mew looked over his shoulder with a partway confident smile and said, "I'm going to break a promise."

He then made his way for the stairs, his heart and feet as heavy as iron...
