Random Fact Time!

Hector David Jr. is freakin' hot! Lol, that's an opinion. Here's the fact:

Hector was a Lotus Land Dancer in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.

Okay… Depressing Chapter Time! This chapter has line breaks that don't annoy me :P

Days went by and Mia's luck began to decrease. She was no longer seven months pregnant. Lauren and Jayden offered her to stay in the Shiba house until she was at least eight months pregnant just in case she needed immediate medical treatment from Ji or Catherine. That was no longer the case. They expected Mia to collapse and possibly give premature birth in her seventh month just like the samurai from decades ago. But it turns out, Mia was safe that month. Eight months is the problem…

"Stop Breezie..." Mia managed to cough out. "Please…" She was in bed, rubbing her stomach endlessly in pain. Her eyes had dark circles under them from lack of sleep and her hair looked like a bird's nest because she couldn't lift her arm to comb it. Lauren went to school and Ji and Catherine were somewhere in another part of the house. She's alone. There are just a couple hours before dinner. Ji and Catherine should be checking on her soon.

"Please Breezie Aquanetta… take a break…" Tear began to spill from her tired eyes. They clouded her vision. "Ow…"

"Ow…" Mia said again louder. She felt something move in the lower half of her body. It hurts. The pink samurai knew what was going on. She didn't know if she should be happy or not. She stared at her phone on the dresser. She couldn't reach it. So Mia knew what she needed to do. With all the strength left in her body, she let out a piercing scream.

Catherine and Ji came running in with a look of concern on their faces. Catherine took Mia's hand and tried to sooth her but Mia refused.

"She's coming…" Mia bit her lip to keep herself from screaming again. "My water broke…"

"Breathe darling, you need to stay calm." Catherine looked up for Ji's assistance but Ji was nowhere in sight. He left as soon as he heard the magic words. Mia and Kevin's baby girl wants to get out. And one way or another, Ji is going to be prepared for her arrival.

"Bye dancers, I'll see you all next week." Mike told his students. "Evany, can you stay for an extra five minutes?"

He watched as his students parted into small groups with their friends and left except for Evany as the usual. Evany didn't have any friends which is sad because there are a lot of fifteen years olds in the class. It just made Mike want to help her more. The other teens in the class didn't speak to her because she struggled with the choreography so much.

Evany sat in a corner in the back of the room, taking tiny sips from her water bottle. She had nowhere important to be so she stayed like Mike asked her to. Mike sat next to her and offered her a smile. "Hey Evany, how are you?"

"Good." Evany replied quietly. "How are you?" She stared at the ground. She's never been very good at making eye contact when she spoke to people.

"I'm good." Mike said. He watched as Evany picked on the nail polish on her nails silently. "Look, um, I'm concerned about you."

"Why?"

"Well, you seem so… distant. You're very quiet and I'm not saying that's a bad thing but it's really affecting the way you socialize with people and dance. I want to help. If there's anything on your mind, I'll listen. If you need extra lessons, stay after class or we can work something out and we can meet up somewhere after school."

"Why are you so kind to me?" Mike gave her a confused look. "I'm always screwing up the dance moves. When I screw up, the whole class screws up and we look terrible. I'm slowing the class down. I don't even know why I keep on coming back or why I keep trying. I obviously have no rhythm."

"Don't say that Ev…"

"No, you don't get it!" For the first time in their conversation, Evany looked at Mike. "I can't dance. I'm the only person in my family that can't dance! My dad used to dance on Broadway and now he owns his own theater. And my mom is an accountant but by the time her shift ends, she's teaching a Zumba class. One of my older twin brothers teaches contemporary and the other one teaches hip-hop just like you… maybe even better!"

"Evan…"

Evany got up and started to pack her things in her bag. "Even my little sister dances better than me and she's five! She takes ballet at one of the most expensive dance studios in town!"

Mike ran his fingers through his thick hair and sighed. He wasn't going to yell at a girl younger than him especially since her parents (that own a theater apparently) are the one's paying him for teaching her and watching her while she's in his hands. And quite frankly, he wants to keep his job.

"Do you know what it's like Mike?" Evany questioned him. "Do you know what it's like to be in a family of successful dancers with dozens of awards and knowing you don't have a single one except a little participation ribbon from kindergarten?"

Mike didn't say a word. He was in total shock. He's never heard Evany yell that loud or talk that much in single breath. Evany stood up and got her shoes. On her way to the door, she passed Emily. She didn't know her so she used her manners and stepped out of the older woman's way.

"Excuse me." Evany whispered, back to her normal voice and left the studio.

Emily nodded and made her way to her defeated husband. She held out a hand to support him as he stood up. "My mighty green ranger husband just got told off by a teenage girl? Damn…rough day?"

"Oh, you saw that too?" Mike asked her.

"Yup, and she didn't sound too happy."

"I just wanted to help." Mike placed his hand on her hip and Emily placed her hand on his shoulder. The two of them gained a little ballroom dancing skills because of their wedding. In their reception, Emily was expected to dance with her father and Mike.

"I know you do." Emily kissed his cheek. "Remember my two left feet when we were taking lessons for our wedding reception."

"And how you didn't talk to me for the rest of the day because you couldn't get the moves right and I did." Mike chuckled and spun his wife around. "Yeah, I remember that."

"Want some advice?" Mike nodded. "If your student comes back next week, give her some space. Maybe that's all she needs right now."

Mike grinned and leaned in for a kiss but Emily cut him off. Her phone was ringing. She took her hand off Mike's shoulder and answered it. Mike saw Emily's expression go from joyful and calm to horror and panic. This caused him to panic too.

"It's time." Emily grabbed her husband's things from beside the stereo system and dragged him out the studio and into the parking lot. "She's coming. I can't believe she's coming. It's still early."

"What?" Mike didn't know what was going on but he went along with whatever Emily was up to. It seemed important. "She's coming? Who?"

"Mia's in labor." Emily gave him the car keys. "I'm so sane right now that if I drive, we're going to end up in jail for breaking ten traffic laws."

"Yes ma'am, did they tell you anything else?" Mike asked her as he drove out of the parking lot.

"She's not doing too well." Emily looked out the window with tears forming in her eyes. "Ji said she's going in and out of consciousness. I'm scared. What if I mess up the symbol?"

"Looks like I'm taking the highway…" Mike gave her shoulder a squeeze. "You won't mess up the symbol. Don't think like that. Focus on the positive."

Lauren took a sip of her soda from a straw at a café. After school, she wanted some quiet time away from her home. She felt relaxed but she couldn't help but call someone at home to see how Mia is doing. She left the Shiba house when Catherine was attempting to feed Mia her breakfast. Mia didn't want to eat. She was so vulnerable and broken, it shattered Lauren's heart. She couldn't imagine the pain Mia must be feeling.

"Hey mom, how's everyone?" Lauren greeted Catherine on the phone. "Mom, slow down. What's going on? Is Mia okay? Oh no…you're kidding me. So, let me get this straight. Mia…is giving birth…in my house? Ew… yeah, I know, it's just disturbing to think about."

"I'm on my way." Lauren picked up her purse from the small table she was sitting at and got into her car. Her day just got interesting.

"Alright guys, just ten more jumping jacks." Kevin told his swim students. Instead of learning how to swim, Kevin decided to give them a break and do some water aerobics with them. So far, it's been a good work day and everyone was having fun splashing in the water.

"Good job everyone, go take a breather." Mandy, Kevin's assistant swim coach said. Once their swim students were out of ear-shot, she gave Kevin a pat on the back. "It's good to have you back Mr. De-Tiege."

"I'm glad to be back Ms. Lawrence." Kevin sat on the bleachers. "Life has been really crazy for me lately."

"Oh, I know about that. It happens to the best of us. So how is your wife? It must have been hard to leave your sick wife home today." Kevin had told Mandy about how Mia's pregnancy has been (leaving out all of the samurai stuff) and it worried her. She's been pregnant before and she knows how those pregnancy scares can be.

"She's uh…" Kevin trailed off as he answered his ringing phone. "Sorry I have to take this."

"Go ahead, we have time."

Kevin listened to Ji carefully on the phone. Every word that came out of his mouth made him more and more terrified than ever before. Mia Jennifer De-Tiege, pink, wind samurai, his wife, his sick wife, is in labor. She's going to have their baby soon, very soon. Kevin never said a word when Ji stopped talking. He just hung up his phone and gathered his things.

"My wife is having a baby." Kevin gave Mandy an apologetic expression. "I'm so sorry, I have to go. I know I missed a lot of days and I'm still making up for them…"

Mandy smirked. "Go ahead baby daddy, you obviously don't have time."

Kevin grinned. He's glad Mandy is an understanding person because he really doesn't know when he'll be back in the pool. Kevin quickly left the building. He's going to be a daddy.

You guys are going to hate me! Hopefully I update it soon. In the meantime, while I go write a chapter on samurai birth, please leave a review. XD
