I can't believe how fast the summer break went through -_- It feels as if I only said goodbye to my friends a moment ago but now I'm about to say hello to them again XD But still, I really wanted to get this done by the first day of school and of course it doesn't look like I've made it XC Otherwise then the story would be more rushed and everything, and then you guys wouldn't like the story :( and then I wouldn't like it. And guess what happens when a story goes bad? Well, for me…I quit. I delete it and never think of it again.

But be thankful that I'll still update it while school's on, I'll see how much time I get every day after school then I'll decide how many times a week I should update or keep it the same, but I doubt it ^^;

It wasn't long later that Tucker and Sam's and Danny's parents were at the hospital. Sam had now been in the hospital for over three hours now and she hadn't felt much pain since her water broke. It was very unusual for her and everyone.

"I don't get it, why aren't I feeling any contractions. Sam wondered while lying on the bed in hospital clothing.

Bella turned around then walked up to Sam. "Dear, it can take time for the contractions to kick in. But if you want to go into labour now, I could help you walk down the hallway."

"What does that do?" Danny asked, curious.

"Walking around can help encourage labour to start." Bella answered. "Now, did you want to go for a little walk or did you just want to wait?"

"I'll wait." Sam smiled. "I want to do it the natural way, no cutting me open or anything."

"Oh so you don't want to go the bad way Samantha?" Pamela asked while walking into the room, proud of her daughter.

"No mum, a mother has to take the pain and not prevent it."

Then Maddie and Jack entered the room.

"Aw, that's sweet Sam. And that's a great statement; mothers should take the pain naturally." Maddie stated

"Yeah, Maddie wanted to go unnatural with Jazz."

"Dad." Jazz exclaimed looking embarrassed.

"What? It's true, and then Maddie realised that it wasn't as painful as getting jabbed with needles a few times."

"Jack, natural is more painful. But that's nature; it's not really anyone's fault now is it?" Maddie asked while walking up to Sam.

"Sam, how do you feel?" Her father asked while feeling her head.

"Umm…I feel a little crowed at the moment. Can I have some space please?"

Everyone smiled and nodded as they all moved a little further away from Sam, which made her smile. Jazz and Tucker later went out of the room to get dinner, Jack followed them too but the rest stayed with Sam to keep her company while Bella monitored the triplets.

"How far are the contractions doctor?" Maddie asked wanting to know.

"Well, she claims to have had one but I'm not entirely sure yet. If she did then we should be expecting the next contraction very soon."

"But, contractions can come any time. Mine lasted almost three days with Danny."

"Wow, great memory Mrs Fenton." Bella smiled. "I know. You're right. It varies from mother to mother so you never know."

It was getting late, and Sam still wasn't having any contractions. So they left her for the night to rest and see if in the morning that the contractions would come. It was nearing closing time but Danny didn't want to leave her side.

"Danny, you have to go. Don't you have college tomorrow?" Sam asked, sounding slightly annoyed.

"No, I told them that I'm becoming a father. I'm sure that was a good enough reason for me to stay out of college for a while."

Sam smiled; they shared a romantic and passionate kiss. Danny held her hand in hope.

"I hope that in the morning, I'll finally be a father."

"Me too."

They kissed once more then Bella knocked on the slightly opened door to the room. "It's time to go Danny." She smiled.

"I'll see you in the morning Sam."

As Danny walked off, Sam told him three words that will make sure that she would be fine.

"I love you."

Danny stopped in his tracks and looked back. "I love you too."

A few minutes after Danny left, Bella told Sam a few things that she needs to know just in case if the contractions came over night.

"Here's my number if you start to feel contractions, I'll be at home. There will be other doctors and nurses walking by so if you need anything, they'll be there to assist you. I'll be back here at about 7 or 8am."

"Thanks Bella, hopefully they don't make up their minds now." Sam smirked, talking about the triplets.

Bella chuckled quietly. "I hope so too Sam. I'll see you in the morning."

Bella turned off the light and closed the door behind her; this left Sam all alone in a comfortable bed with some moonlight coming from the curtained window.

"I love this, and I can't wait for you three to finally come out."

Sam wasn't worried at all, she was actually quite excited. She knew that it would be painful but she didn't worry, it was natural anyway so what's to be scared about? For the rest of the night, she slept.

For the next day, she had occasional visits but a very long one from Danny, unfortunately the contractions had still not started yet. At this point, Danny was feeling a little worried for Sam but she was calm as anything. She couldn't wait until all three were out and nestled against her chest for comfort.

That night at about 3am when the hospital was much quieter than earlier, the hallways were still lit but there was no one walking around; all the patients in the other rooms were sound asleep.

It was the perfect time for the dark shadows to take Sam back to where all the dark shadows lived in the ghost zone.

They looked down at her with suspicion in case she was still merely awake, she didn't move much. The only movement that was seen was in her stomach where the three infants were kicking a little and from her lungs since she had to breathe of course.

"You carry her feet, I'll carry her by the shoulders." A dark shadow ordered the other.

So two dark shadows, took Sam carefully but quickly back to where all the dark shadows had stayed ever since the first one was born.

Sam was that tired that she didn't feel her feet going numb by the coldness of the dark shadow. Their temperatures were way colder than Danny's is when he's in ghost form, somehow they didn't affect Sam's sleeping.

Not long later, they arrived at the dungeons of their castle (yes, castle) and gently placed her in one of the old cells for her to rest. The reason why they carried her gently is so that she wouldn't wake up and that could've meant a signal for either Danny to come or for the triplets to be born.

"Excellent." The leader stated while floating into the room. "Your work is done…for now." He grinned evilly.

The two other dark shadows left the room while the leader stared at the sleeping Sam.

"Soon young girl, soon…"

Back at home, Danny was having the most dreaded feeling of leaving Sam there in the hospital alone, he felt as if something was wrong with her but he couldn't figure it out. He just assumed that it was his dreams doing something to him, making him think that she'll die if she gives birth to the kids and then they turn into monsters. He fell back asleep for the rest of the night.

As morning arrives, Danny wakes up bright and early to go and see Sam again. He woke up at about 7am, before he head out the door, he received a phone call from his college.

"Hello?"

"Hi, is this Daniel Fenton speaking?"

"Yes, speaking. Who is this?"

"This is your teacher for astrophysics, I just wanted to let you know that I'm giving you another week until you must come back. "

"Oh, I don't know what to say sir. Thanks."

"It's no problem Danny, and besides, becoming a father is far more important than studying for another lecture and experiments."

"Which reminds me, when is our next big test?"

"It'll be on the 20th of June, be sure to study after your children are born. I'll see you in a week's time."

"Thanks again, bye."

That made Danny smile and feel relieved, he almost forgot about ringing up college. So he presumed going to see Sam and on his way there, he received a phone call from Bella. This made him feel confused and worried.

"Bella?" He asked as he opened up his cell phone to talk to her. "What's wrong?"

"You need to be here urgently! Something terrible has happened!"

Danny gasped with horror. "What happened to Sam?! Is she hurt?"

Bella panted quickly and worriedly. "She's gone! Her room is empty!"

Alright, need to end it there because that's all I had planned for this chapter. I'll try to update again today but I don't think I will be able to ^^; I'll try at least.

Until then, bye.
