Zantanna's POV
All I could do was sit there and watch her lie in her hospital bed. During the tests we were running on her and Wally, when we returned to the watch tower, she had a seizure. When Dick and Bruce got her under control she was asleep. That was three days ago and she still hasn't woken up. I couldn't do anything. Just like when my mom died, just like when my dad became Fate, just like when Dick and I broke up, just like when Artemis 'died', just like when Wally disappeared. All I could do was sit there and watch the slow rise and fall of her chest. Dick refused to go home and so did I. We were in this together. We were a couple again. No. We were ALL a family. She was our daughter.
10 days later…
Dick and I finally went home like everyone asked us to but only to take quick showers and a few hours of sleep each night. Then we were back in the med bay. When we returned to the watch tower this morning Bart ran to us. "It's Emzabeth! She's awake!" We shared a look and bolted to the med bay. When we arrived familiar green looked into two shades of blue. Her eyes shone as a smile graced her lips.
"Hi mom and dad." She said.
"Hey sweetheart." Dick said walking towards her with my hand in his.
"How are you doing honey?" I asked brushing some of her hair behind her ear.
"Good. I'm starving though." Dick chuckled. We looked at Captain Atom, Bruce, and Barry. They nodded their heads saying it was okay and we may our way toward the cafeteria when Emzabeth finished changing.
Tim's POV
The whole team plus Raquel, Zantanna, Artemis, and Wally were eating in the cafeteria chatting.
"So how didn't I know Zee and NG had a 15 year old daughter when I've only been gone for 4 months and they're only 20 and their daughter acts exactly like them? And aren't you supposed to be married to adopt?" asked Wally.
"They, plus Danielle for Babs and J and Pur'nia for Kal and Raq, adopted a little over two months ago. As for your second question, let's leave it at, I took care of it." I said. Danielle and I fist bumped.
"Well, it looks like I have some new family members then. Two nieces and a nephew." Wally said.
"And twins." Em added.
"What?" Artemis asked wide eyes.
"I'm so sorry I thought you knew because your 4-5 months along. I'm so, so sorry." Em said looking guilty.
"I didn't even notice. But how did you know?" Artemis asked baffled.
"Three reasons: One I have been into the future, I haven't interfered just watched and I also have only been 3 years and only to a few places for a few minutes very few times. Two, you were sick for a while when I first met you and had cravings. Three, you don't show much but you do show. You do wear a spandex suit." She explained.
"So do I have any kids after Danielle?" Babs asked.
"I don't know if I should tell you?" Em hesitated.
"Just a number. Please." Babs begged.
"Five. Some adopted so don't worry." Em answered looking towards the ground the added, "Please no more questions about the future. I don't want to upset the balance." I could see the look Dan gave her and I knew then he loved her.
