Chapter 13

"We're going out!" Petra called to the boys, "We'll be back in a few hours!"

"Got it!" Axel and Lukas chirped.

Petra grabbed her cell phone before going out. And then Aphmau, Olivia, and Petra both opened the red wooden door. It was a October afternoon, so it was a little cold outside. But not so cold that they needed jackets.

The girls began to pile into the large truck that the team owned. It was a gray colored truck with a falcon sticker on the rump. Olivia decided to drive, Petra sat in the seat to the back right of Olivia, and Aphmau sat in the seat next to Olivia. While the girls were about to take off, Aphmau was blabbering about how to properly take care of yourself, what's best during the third trimester, and other stuff.

"You should also keep snacks at places you usually go to," Aphmau explained while Olivia was driving, "During the second trimester, it's good to have a bowl full of snacks everywhere while you walk around the house. Plus, this is a good time to start shopping because you have a lot of energy."

"Does that mean I won't throw up anymore?" Petra asked, her eyes brightening.

"Yep," Aphmau smiled, "I rest my case."

"YES!" Petra shouted.

Olivia stepped on the breaks. Luckily they were at a stop sign.

"Can you stop shouting, Petra? I'm trying to drive." Olivia sighed.

"Sorry, I'm just so excited! Now I can eat a little more!" Petra exclaimed.

"You'll also be throwing up for one more month though. Remember, you're going to be in your third month tomorrow." Aphmau added.

Petra whined like a child.

"You act like a kid." Aphmau chuckled.

"I do not!" Petra huffed.

"Is this normal?" Aphmau whispered to Olivia.

"No, actually." Olivia whispered back, "I think the hormones are beginning to have an impact on her, because she was crying earlier today, and Petra never cries."

"Well then, wait for the fourth month. It gets worse."

"Anyways," Aphmau began to talk to Petra again, "Since you won't be puking anymore, you'll probably be eating tons more than you usually do. Plus, have you went to a doctor yet? You may want an ultrasound."

"An ultrasound?" Petra asked, confused, "What's that?"

"An ultrasound is where you'll able to see how your baby is growing." Aphmau blushed, "They spread a type of gel on your stomach, and this type of remote that is able to see inside. There they can look for birth defects, shortage of growth, or diseases. At the end of it, you can also get pictures."

"Pictures seem nice." Petra smiled.

"They are. You can see how big the baby grows by each week. Not to mention you'll also see it on the outside too."

"But wait, when Petra does have the baby, wouldn't we need a bigger truck?" Olivia asked, her eyes still on the road.

"Oh yeah that's right." Petra sighed.

"Don't forget baby clothes, decoration, cribs, feeding accessories, high chairs, toys, and th-"

"I think that's enough to say we have a ton of money going down the toilet." Olivia smiled at Aphmau, and everyone laughed.

~With Jesse~

"I need to find water." Jesse croaked.

His voice was so soft, no one could hear it but himself. The explosion pretty much wore him out, not to mention that everyone he was close to wasn't there to help him. But what was really on his mind was Petra. Petra and Jesse were very close, now even closer since a baby was on the way. The baby was what worried him. What if there were two. Three? Four? Petra wouldn't be able to handle them all by herself, and the team probably wouldn't either. Heck, they'd be living zombies in the next six weeks.

He wanted to see the child. Feel it. Maybe even hear it make sounds. All those things that Jesse wished to do weren't going to happen. Unless a portal magically appeared that led him back to homeworld. Or maybe he could build his portal. Or maybe-

(Enough. Let's focus back on Jesse!)

Jesse began wondering everywhere in search for water. But all he found was an endless path of oak trees, and spiders, and other things. Five minutes later, he found a porkchop. And that porkchop was followed by another porkchop. It was a trail of pork chops. The porkchops went behind a bush, and behind that bush revealed a lake of water.

Jesse's eyes widened. It was a miracle.

"Thank God," Jesse sighed, and collapsed on the grass.

~Back with the Girls~

The truck pulled up at Marshalls. Marshalls provided tons of maternity clothing, probably enough to last you more than nine months.

"We're here," Olivia stated, "We'll have to be careful. The news crew may be here today."

"I hate the news crew." Petra groaned, "They always want your life to be out in the open."

"I could understand that." Aphmau said in a plain manner.

The three jumped out of the truck, and Aphmau helped Petra out of the back. Olivia checked from the rear of the truck to see if the coast was clear, and sure enough, it was.

"Let's go!" Olivia whispered.

The girls ran across the walkway, and entered the store like they were never there.

Inside the store were big shirts, pants, bras, and slippers.

"This is amazing!" Petra gushed and began twirling around in circles.

Olivia did a facepalm and Aphmau put on a horrified face. Aphmau hurried over to Petra grasped her shoulders tightly.

"Don't spin around!" Aphmau scolded, "If you did that anymore, you would-"

Petra suddenly covered her mouth with her hand. Her cheeks were a lime green and the sparkle in her eyes faded.

"I'll be right back." Petra muttered and ran off in search to find a bathroom.

Olivia just stood there with her mouth opened, and Aphmau had her hands on her hips.

"You sure know how to deal with Petra." Olivia said, still mindblown.

"I've gone through this three times. I'm an expert at these things." Aphmau boasted.

Olivia rolled her eyes. Again, Aphmau apologized, but she was still arrogant like she was before.

"But anyways, let's not waste time," Aphmau ordered, "Let's look for clothes while Petra's in the bathroom!"

~Back to Jesse~

Jesse gathered wood from the trees surrounding the lake, and started a fire with rubbing a stick vigorously on one of the wood planks.

Things were just getting started. He carved wood into a bowl and scooped up water from the lake. Now that he had his food source, he had to make shelter, or he wouldn't make it out in the wild for long.

Jesse wandered into the woods with no clue of here he was going, but left a trail of leaves where he walked. When he found a thick patch of trees that were good enough to make into wood planks, he began to break it down with his fists. As he got the wood to break down into single wood planks, he thought about Petra again. For some reason, he thought there was a way back to his world. Maybe he could build his way back. He could build an obsidian portal that could possibly take him back to his world, and be there for Petra and his team. He wanted to do it so badly. Not only was he missing Petra, but he was missing his family. Olivia, Axel, Lukas, the baby. It was so lonely here.

As Jesse walked back, he thought about the possibility some more. Was going back to his family really that important? Was seeing his child that important? Did he really want to do all this and possibly end up somewhere else than home?

All of these were answered as a "yes".

So it was decided. Day One of "Get Back Home" was starting right now.
