Before I forget Lin and Madoka do have a son named Macarius (Madoka). Macarius is visiting Lin's family. Macarius is only three. (The name means blessed in Latin.)

"WHAT?" The gang yelled after Ayako explained it to them. "What are Mai and Naru doing now?" Madoka asked.

"Talking."

"Triplets! What are we going to do?" Mai asked franticly.

"I'll admit it, I'm frightened as well. But we are parents now. We'll get through this. Our family will help us. Don't worry."

Then Minko and Nina came in, followed by Gene.

"How are you feeling?" Minko asked as she held her sister's hand.

Mai smiled at her oldest sister. "I'm okay. We just didn't expect to have a girl. Naru and I knew about the boys but our little girl."

"What are you naming them?" Nina asked.

"The oldest is named Gene, after his Uncle." Mai glanced at the older Gene who smiled warmly at her. He had tears in his eyes. Happy tears.

"The second oldest is named Kenji and our little girl is named Keiko."

"Mai, Naru if you need help with the babies let us know." Minko said.

"Thank you." Naru wasn't in to hugging but he went over to Mai's sisters and hugged them.

"Mai and I arranged with Monk-san and Ayako so that we can live with at the farm, we were wondering if you would live with us."

"Of course."

Then Lin and Madoka came in. Lin went to Naru and Mai and Madoka went straight the triplets. "They are so cute. Hey little girl, you surprized us."

When everyone saw the new triplets and saw that Mai is doing alright they left the new family alone.

Soon the babies started to cry. Ayako came in to help Mai feed them. Little Gene was first.

Naru watched with interest. Mai is going to be a great mother. I know it. He thought as Mai handed him his oldest son to him and Naru gently placed him next to his brother and sister. Next he picked up Kenji. While Mai fed Kenji Naru picked Gene up and held him.

When Kenji was full it was Keiko's turn. Naru held Kenji's tiny hand in his gently for a moment then he turned to the mother and daughter. He sat on the edge of the bed and gently touched his daughter's head

Then a jolt of electricity raced from Keiko through his hand and in to his head. He felt a connection with his daughter. He'll talk to his father and brother and best friend about this.

Mai fell asleep after Keiko was asleep in her cot next to her brothers. Naru went outside to find Ayako at a computer. "Can I use a phone?" He asked her. "Sure you can use the phone in my office, just through that door on your left. Press one to get a ring tone."

Naru pressed one then he dialled Lin's mobile number. "yes?" Lin answered after the third ring. "It's Noll. I didn't wake you did I?" "No. I was just getting ready for bed. What's the matter?"

"When I touched Keiko gently on the head I felt a connection with her." "Noll, that is the connection of a father and his child."

"No not that kind of connection. I felt something else."

"Like what?"

"Well besides the father and child I felt something else. It's kind of hard to explain. I felt her happiness and excitement run through me like she is showing me how she feels."

"Naru… I think she inherited your powers. I'll talk to your father about this."

"Alright. Ayako said that they can come home tomorrow."

"I'll pick you up in the van. What time?"

"Midday"

"Okay."

Naru hung up and went back to his family. As he entered he saw that Mai was a wake. She had a worried look on her face.

"I'll tell you in the morning. Get some rest. I'll be right here."

The next day Mai woke up to the sound of her children crying. Strangely enough they didn't wake Naru up.

Mai picked up little Gene and fed him. When she fed the babies she had hers then she waited for Naru to wake up and for Lin to come and pick them up.

Lin came in half an hour later and Naru had the babies ready. "Everyone wanted to come. But I snuck out."

Mai giggled. "I'm going to drop you off at the farm. Your sisters will be there in a couple of weeks."

In the car Mai sat with her children in the back. While Naru sat at the front. They drove in silences. After a few minutes Lin broke the silence. "Macarius will be arriving in three days. Madoka has gone to pick him up. She misses him. So do I."

"How old is he?" Mai asked. "His third birthday is next week."

"Bring him to the farm. He'll have fun there. You, Madoka and Macarius will have fun." Mai said.

"Thank you."

There is chapter 12.
