Chapter 11: The Family Tree
After a while I started to get a little restless, until one moment.
"It's a, uh, Girl. I think." Said Dr. Hatcher.
I attempted to walk into the room until one of the nurses stopped me and said. "Please wait until you are called in."
"But I thought that it was finished."
"No, there is still one more coming."
One more? My visions, dreams…were true? Why is this so. Looks like I can see into the clouded future, but if that were true, then, what about Kerrigan and her striking scene? Was she to attack this station or what?
I looked at the double doors that lead into the Labouring room, they were large and grey, they seemed like they were equal in both size and wisdom, being pushed around. The waiting game was unbearable, I even got to the point of playing pee-knuckle wars with MYSELF. Until I heard the call that was like water to a parched mouth.
"You may come in now."
I walked in and saw Angel with a happy face, with tears in her red eyes. She is holding 2 of the most beautiful beings in my eyes, my young.
"One is a Girl, I think, and I think the other one is a boy…uh, why don't you find out, eh." Said a very confused but happy doctor.
"We Have two very healthy babies Alex, TWO!" said Angel excitedly.
"I know, don't they look beautiful?"
I then look at my babies, the Girl had 2 legs similar to the Zergling but as I could see had the potential of walking upright, she had also had a tail very similar to the Hydralisk's, her upper body had they tough skin of a Zerg, but shape of a human, her arms were also human but had the colouring of the Zerg, she had hands with fingers, but she had a little slit in her wrist that shown some bone. Her face was a lot like a Hydralisks, Redish eyes that was similar to human eyes, both an inner jaw and an outer one but guessing from the noises she is making it is possible that she can both have human speech and speak 'Hydralisk'. Her hair was completely human, wavy and all. Overall she was smooth and slender in shape, a lot like her mother.
I then looked at the boy, he was very similar to the girl, except he didn't have the slits in his wrists, and instead he had roundish pits under his arms. He also seemed to be bigger in size, had thick hair like his mothers, his torso was shaped like a Hydralisk's, and he had more of a human face with only one jaw with strong features around the corners of his face. Although we are 2 very strange parents, we will raise them with care, attention and what ever else is needed.
"Oh, I'm very tired after all of that Alex. I need to rest for a bit."
"You can rest for as long as you want to Angel, give me a shout if you need me. I won't be far."
Angel had slept for several hours; she must have been exhausted after all of that. At 5 o'clock UMT (Universal Mean Time) in the afternoon she had woken up and wanted to see me.
"Alex, are you there?" she asked on the phone.
"Yea, I'm here." I said from our room.
"Would you be able to come here for a moment."
She was there nursing our young, she looked at me happily as if they were a million dollars, each. She looked into my eyes and said.
"I think we are going to be good parents."
We got back to our room and saw that there were now 2 modified cribs where the single bed was with a note attached to one.
I hope you like these; I congratulate you on your new arrivals.
I hope to see them soon.
Jim Raynor.
Just inside the crib there were clothes that could fit Angel, the kids, and me quite nicely. I heard a knock on the door, I turn towards the door and there was standing my Mum and Dad. My Mum had a shocked look on her face; my Mum had short brown hair, blue eyes, and that kind of soft happy mother look. While my dad had few remaining black hair all over his grey head of hair, brown eyes with glasses, and the old fatherly figure. I then saw tears running from my Dads face.
"Alex, is that really you? I have missed you so much!"
I started to cry too, " Yes dad, it is me. It's me! I may have gone through some changes but its still me!"
We all started to hug each other and cry on each other's shoulders in the process. "We have made a new life here on this planet. I've started a General Store in the middle of the base; it sells everything from Air Canisters to Zerg detectors. We even do modifications to Weaponry and clothing with our new friend here." Said Mum. Then Javier entered the room.
"I thought it would be a good idea to stay here and study more about human day to day life." Explained Javier.
I introduced my Wife, Angela (or Angel) and we started to exchange stories on what happened between me joining Mar Sara Marine Core to right now. We decided to stay on this planet with it's practically unknowingness to the Universe, and that it was perfect to raise children in this clean crisp environment. Obviously Jim Raynor would go off on Missions of Peace or Survival, and leave a small detachment here to defend us, but that was ok.
