Author's Notes: Sorry for not getting more chapters up yesterday. I went and spent a lovely afternoon and evening with my nephew! And I have to say, when he's around, you don't need to watch Rugrats, you've got a live performance, with everything from venturing off to forbidden rooms and pieces of furniture, to throwing toys around, and even putting food into his diapers! Yep, he's a combination of Tommy, Dil, Phil and Lil, all in one! But enough of that, I would like to say thank you to all who have reviewed, followed, and favorited this story thus far. Also, in terms of the trivia questions I posted at the end of chapter 3, Boris Yeltsin gets partial credit, as he remembered the title of the episode where Angelica thought she was a real princess, it was Princess Angelica, and he remembered that Jonathan appeared in the episode, Mommy's Little Assets. Also, I'd like to thank Jesse J. Barrow, for pointing out to me that Jonathan appeared in three episodes, he thought it was from season 6 or 7, when he appeared as a shadow on a train or something. Yes, he did appear on a train, and after being reminded of this, it was from the episode titled, Murmer on the Ornery Express from season 8. Now, enough Rugrats trivia for now. You've still got until chapter 10 to see if you know the answers to all trivia questions given at the end of chapter 3. For now though, let's continue on with our story!
Chapter 5, The Birth of Chuckie
Chuckie stared at Jesse and Zack for several minutes, hesitant to take the remote from Angelica's hand, and unpause the video, to continue with his story.
"Well mister three-years-old, are you going to stand there or are you going to start telling your part of the story? Huh? Huh?" Snapped Angelica, as she started to grow impatient.
"Fine, I'll tell the story." Said Chuckie hesitantly, as he took the remote from Angelica's hand, and unpaused the video, to reveal a field full of lovely flowers and trees, with Chaz and Melinda, enjoying one another's company.
Chuckie POV
Well, as you guys know, my daddy use to push paper before he got the coffee shop, and my real mommy, the one who's up in heaven now, well, she wasn't always in heaven. She loved grass and flowers, and loved being outside. Maybe that's where I get my love for jumping in leaves and picking dandelions.
"Get on with the story Finster." Snapped Angelica.
"Ok ok." Chuckie replied.
So like I was saying, my mommy and daddy enjoyed being together outside.
End of Chuckie POV
"Aren't these flowers beautiful?" Melinda asked, showing Chaz some beautiful roses she had just planted.
"Oh my gosh, they're… They're…" Said Chaz, as a sneeze started to come on, and he sneezed.
"Blesh you honey." Replied Melinda, as she led Chaz back into their house.
Later, Chaz and Melinda were at the dinner table, when Melinda, started to not feel well.
"Charles, it's time." Melinda panicked.
Chaz took a few breaths to calm himself down, preparing for one of the biggest moments in his life. He helped Melinda up from the table, led her out to the car, and they were off to the hospital.
Chuckie POV
So my mommy and daddy were off to the hopcickle to have me. They gotted there, and some nice people took my mommy to the room where I would be bornded. Daddy stood on one side of my mommy, and held her leg up, while a nice doctor was on the other side of my mommy, doing the same.
"Come on Melinda, push now." Said the doctor encouragingly.
Mommy pushed, and pushed, until I, was finally bornded! The world looked kind of scary to me, as I cried, and I was touched by the firstest time by the hands of doctors and all of these strange peoples I didn't know cuz this world was a new place to me.
"Hello my sweet little Chuckie Krandle Finster." Said my mommy, as she held me for the very first time.
"Chuckie? Sweetheart? I'm your daddy!" Said my daddy, who smiled down at me and my mommy.
At this point, I stopped crying, and smiled at my new mommy and daddy. Maybe this world wouldn't be all that scary after all. But I was wrong you guys, I was really really wrong. It would only be a matter of time, before my world was in a word, well, before I was, doomed.
End of Chuckie POV
Just then, Chuckie paused the video tape, with the screen focused on Chaz smiling down at Melinda, who was holding Chuckie, a tiny baby with a few strands of red hair on his head, wrapped in blue swottling clothes.
"What happened Chuckie?" Tommy asked.
Chuckie took several breaths and gulped before answering Tommy's question.
"Well, it's not a pretty story, but here it goes." Said Chuckie, as he unpaused the video tape to continue his story.
And Chuckie's story, will continue, in the next chapter.
