Kakkarot groaned and sat up. He looked around at all the medical equipment around him. He blink and rubbed his eyes. "The hell?"
"Kakkarot!" Kakkarot looked over. Bardock was standing over him. "You're finally awake."
"Dad? Aren't... You supposed to be in a war?" Kakkarot shook his head. "What the hell happened?" Kakkarot suddenly felt dizzy and held his head.
"Calm down. You've been in a coma for two months."
"Two months? Coma?" Kakkarot blinked then gasped and lifted the blanket, happy, yet shocked, to see his baby bump had grown bigger and was still present.
"Don't worry. You didn't have anything terribly life threatening happen to you, so they were able to save the child and you." Kakkarot sighed in relief. "Kakkarot... Are you going to be okay?"
"Oh yeah... I'll be fine." Kakkarot smiled and looked outside. "Did... Did the king come and see me?" Kakkarot gripped the blanket tightly and Bardock shook his head.
"No... He didn't..." Kakkarot looked down and sighed. "He's been busy helping rebuild buildings and trying to make peace. The wars on hold because of meetings between the two kings. Although some of them are still wandering the streets threatening us, like that's a huge deal." Bardock laughed a bit.
"Dad... Wheres Raditz?" Bardock shrugged.
"M.I.A. Although I'm sure he's fine. Knowing him he's off with his friends playing hookey from the war. I've had my scouter on and I've picked up his power level a few times." Bardock held his hand out to Kakkarot. "Anyway, you should be able to get up and walk now." Kakkarot stood up without taking Bardock's hand. "Stubborn just like your old man." Bardock smiled cockily.
"Yeah I know..." Kakkarot put his hand on his belly. "Ugh fuck. It hurts." Bardock started at him.
"Sit down... I'm going to get a doctor." Bardock left the room and Kakkarot's heart began to race.
"W... Why do I need a doctor?" Kakkarot sat down and took a few deep breaths. "Oh god..." Bardock walked back in with a doctor.
"Kakkarot?" The doctor said. "You said you have stomach pains, would you mind if I checked your stomach?" Kakkarot shook his head.
"Go ahead." The doctor put his stethoscope in his ears and put the one end on Kakkarots stomach.
"Take a deep breath Kakkarot..." Kakkarot closed his eyes and relaxed then took a deep breath a few times. The doctor mumbled to himself. "Kakkarot would you mind me doing an ultrasound on your stomach to see how the childs doing?"
"I don't mind... But why? Is something wrong?" The doctor shook his head.
"No you're probably just sore still from the coma but other than that I think you'll be fine, but before you leave I'd like to check your child." Kakkarot nodded and smiled.
"Go ahead..."
"Alright everything seems fine... The babys heartbeat is strong and if you look closely you can see the tails starting to grow hair and so is the head. Looks like a widows peak to me but this is just starting. I'd give it a few more weeks." Kakkarot smiled and looked at the screen.
"So is it a boy or a girl?"
"Well... I'd answer but the tails blocking the way, so there won't be a way to check until it's born. Until then just come up with two names." Kakkarot nodded and covered up again. "Alright you're free to go."
Kakkarot stood up slowly and sighed, then stretched and looked at Bardock. "Let's go."
They left the hospital and walked home, Kakkarot looked around at all the hungry saiyans walking around and the homeless ones. "Is... Our house in tact?"
"Unfortunantly not, I've been staying at Toma's place while it's getting repaired." Kakkarot groaned, knowing this meant a drunk father and a possibility of there only being one room for them to sleep in.
When they got to Toma's Kakkarot was surprised to see it was cleaned up and there was new furniture around, a good sign there would be at least more than one bed. "Well go ahead and relax, stretch out, make yourself at home!" Toma smacked Kakkarot's back a few times and laughed. Kakkarot glared at him and cleared his throat.
"Right thank you." Kakkarot walked away and sat on the couch, then crossed his arms and legs.
"Do be nice Toma... Remember he's..." Bardock motioned towards Kakkarots belly and Toma nodded. "No rough housing with him like that. Not anymore." Bardock sighed and sat next to Kakkarot.
"I don't like him dad."
"I know but theres nowhere else to stay. Your freinds don't know about your pregnancy, and I don't think you want to tell them now, plus he's god a roof over his head and we're just staying here temporarily. Just give it a few weeks, it'll be fine."
"Thanks..."
That night Kakkarot laid in bed rolling around and tossing and turning. His stomach hurt like crazy and his abdomen was becoming sore, something was wrong. He sat up and held his stomach, groaning he slowly got up and went to where Bardock was sleeping. He knocked on the door with the palm of his hand before falling to his knees.
Bardock opened the door and looked down at his son.
"It hurts. It hurts." He groaned. Bardock knew it, something had gone terribly wrong. He scooped up his son carefully.
"Deep breaths Kakkarot... It's labor."
