Alright I have some writing to here tonight and I am ready to bring this chapter up before I go to bed :) So I shall not waste any time by blabbing here and get on with the goodies :) As always I do not own any of these characters.
Tooth had been in excruciating pain since the contractions started and they were only getting stronger. She tossed her head back yelling in pain. Bunny was doing everything he could to try and calm her down when North and Katya showed up as well. Tooth was busy squeezing his hand as he spoke to her calmly, "Easy Tooth, you are going to be fine. Any minute now and our baby will be here to greet the world. We will finally get to see it for the first time." kissing her forehead. She glared at him, her tone angry, "You really think I didn't know that Aster!" Bunny took a step back to give her some space. He knew quite well how intimidating she could be when she was mad.
Katya moved to her side telling her more encouraging things and how it was for her when she was in labor. Tooth whimpered as she felt a much stronger wave of pain rush through her. The doctor came over to check her, "My dear, it's time for you to push." Tooth sighed with relief thinking finally. Bunny sighed too, "DOn't worry love. Everything will be fine now. I know you're a strong woman, and can handle any-" "Shut up Aster! My gods your accent it beyond annoying me right now! Just get out!" her voice wailed through a contraction.
Katya glanced over at Bunny, "She's right Bunny, men aren't allowed in with the birthing part. North is out there, go and be with him. We will send someone to come get you once we are done" Bunny nodded and quickly made his exit from the room sitting outside the house. North patted his shoulder trying to reassure him and all the perks of being a father.
Back in the bedroom, the doctor was telling her she needed to start pushing. She screamed from the pain as she did, "It hurts so much!" Katya held her hand as she encouraged her more, "Be strong Tooth." She glanced at Katya with a pained expression and sweat dripping from her face. Her long black hair was in a messy bun and practically falling out now, "Katya I can't!" she squeezed. Katya nodded, her voice firm, "Yes you can Tooth. I have been your best friend and have known you for a long time. You are the strongest woman I've ever known. You will get through this child birth. Now push!"
Tooth nodded and pushed with everything she had, the doctor announcing he see's the head. Tooth kept pushing until she heard the cries of her newborn child. She slumped in her bed with a smile on her face knowing her child was here at last. The doctor handed the baby over to the maid to get cleaned up, "It's a boy!" Katya smiled and hugged her, "You did it Tooth. I am so proud of you." Tooth winced feeling another sharp pain, "What's happening?" The doctor rushed back to check her, "Hand on, I don't think we're done yet." Tooth's eyes widened, as she and Katya both spoke, "What!?"
The doctor got back into his spot, "There seems to be a second. You're going to have to push again." Tooth's body shook as he did what she was told. Using every ounce of strength she had left, she pushed again and again until she heard another small cry. The doctor handed the baby over, "It's a girl." Katya felt a smile form, "Wow, two children Tooth. Twins at the, that is rare." Tooth's chest was heaving as she regained some strength unable to contain her happiness. She now had two babies for her and Aster, "Aster is going to be so surprised. Don't say anything right away, I want to surprise him." Katya nodded as she had a maid sent for Bunny.
Outside, Bunny was pacing back and forth like a maniac while North laughed in amusement. A maid opened the door, "Your wife has delivered Captain. She is ready to see you now." Bunny wasted no time and quickly rushed inside to see her. He entered the room to see Tooth holding a blue bundle in her arms, "Aster, say hello to your son." she said with a smile. Bunny went over to her side glancing down at his son for the first time. The baby resembled his father, a tuft of black hair, green eyes, and fair skin. His finger brushed along the small face, "Hey lil mate, I'm your daddy. I am so happy you're here."
Katya came back over, this time with a pink bundle and set it in Tooth's other arm. Tooth smiled, "Now say hello to your daughter." Bunny raised an eyebrow, "Wait...what?" as he became confused and surprised. Katya chuckled, "Bunny, you and Tooth had fraternal twins. Such a rare thing to have." Bunny looked down to see Tooth smiling. He glanced down at his new daughter as well. She held her mothers beauty, with black hair, fair skin, and those rare purple eyes he adored so much. He smiled kissing her gently, "They are perfect Tooth. What shall we name them?" She glanced down at them, "How about Eric for this little man, and Talia for the little princess?" Bunny smiled, "I wouldn't oppose to it." The doctor sighed, "We will leave you two alone."
Katya and the doctor left the house and she approached her husband, "They have two beautiful children North. They are beyond happy to have them." North smiled, "Of course, why wouldn't they be. I remember when our daughters were born. They have nothing to worry about." Katya frowned as a few tears formed as she remembered her experience long ago, "You're right. At least they didn't have to encounter the heartache." North pulled her into a hug, "Shh, Katya, that is all in the past. We managed to move past it and are very happy now." Katya nodded, "I know, but I still wish we did have it." North nodded, "I do too my love. I do as well."
11 years ago:
In a study room, young North was searching for his daughters, "Oh dear, I wonder where my little jewels could be hiding this time?" as he looked around the room. He peeked in a corner, "Certainly not here." he teased. He went towards his desk, "But maybe...AHA!" he exclaimed. He went behind the desk to find nothing. His triumphant expression fell into confusion. He looked around the study some more, "Clever, clever my little ones, but you can't hide forever."
His gaze went to the love seat, where the hem of the blue silk skirt peeked out from the sofa. He snuck over and paused a bit before leaping over with a victorious cry. A squeal of surprise was heard and North picked up his prize, "I have found you Elsa." lifting her up into the air. Elsa giggled, "Now help me find your sister." Elsa nodded, but before she could say anything, Anna came out from the drapes pouting, "No fair Elsa you always rat me out!" North bent down and picked Anna up and twirling her making her break out into a fit of giggles.
North smiled, "Oh you are getting so big! Soon I will see you married and have children of your own." he said dramatically. Elsa wrapped her arms around him, "No one will ever take your pace daddy." North hugged her tightly and glanced up when the door opened. Katya stepped through wearing a red violet, long sleeved dress with a corset of ribbons in the front to tie it. The gold embroidering was around the dress, "North, it is time for the girls to get to their lessons with Gerda." receiving small pouts from the girls. Both of them begged, "Aw please mommy just a few more minutes?" Katya wasn't falling for it, "Lessons now and after you may get something special."
Both girls cried out 'Yay' with excitement as they rushed out to their lesson. North approached his wife and pulled her in for a kiss, "When do you think we should tell them?" his hand settling on her small bump. She smiled, "Some time soon. Besides don't we have a special guest coming today?" she asked. He nodded, "Yes, King Pitch of Erebos is visiting. Why, that I am not sure of." She nodded, "Alright, well if you need me I will be in the library." kissing him before she left. North went along to his meeting.
Later on, Katya was alone still in the library reading when she heard a knock, "Come in." She glanced up to see the door open and Pitch entering. He smirked, "Ah, the crocus of Arrendelle. Very beautiful this time of year. You must be Queen Katya." he bowed. She nodded, "Indeed, but you must be here for my husband. I will go and get him for you." Pitch chuckled as he had other plans, "May I just say that you are far more beautiful than what everyone has told me." She glanced at him confused at his sudden change. He approached her with an embrace and tried to kiss her.
She pushed him off, "No, what on earth are you doing? I am loyal to my husband." Pith smirked as he pushed he back against the wall, "But its really you that I want and why I am here. Such a mysterious flower, the Queen of Arrendelle." placing kisses to her neck. She knew this was wrong and moaned slightly as he continued to seduce her. She shoved him back off, "No, this isn't right. I love my husband, now please stop. I am with our third child." Pitch was surprised at her stubbornness, "Fine, I shall leave you be, but not before I do this." leaning in and punching her stomach.
Katya groaned in pain, her hands embracing her stomach in fear that the baby was hurt. She fell to the ground and glanced up at him, "Why?" He straightened his jacket, "It is what you get for rejecting me. No one ever rejects me and gets away with it." as he turned on his heel and left. She slipped into unconsciousness.
Elsa and Anna were giggling through the hallway trying to hide from Gerda again. They slipped into the library to hide when the spotted their mother on the ground. Both of them ran to her trying to wake her up, "Mommy! Wake up mommy!" they both shouted. Elsa became scared for her mother and needed to find her father. She looked at Anna, "Anna, stay here with mommy. I'm going to get daddy, grand pabbie and grannie." getting to her feet. Anna nodded and Elsa ran out the door.
North was in a meeting with the parliament, discussing the new plane for Arrendelle's alliance with Erebos. Former Queen Idun, was helping her son with the decision, "Nicholas, this could be a good idea. It we also alliance with Erebos, Arrendelle could grow." trying to help. North sighed, "Mother, I am just not so sure about this. As much as Erebos has power, the king is kind of off. Something about him doesn't seem right." Idun nodded, "I agree my son. He lurks around as if searching for something."
Both of them were alerted when the door burst open to reveal Elsa. North sighed, "Elsa my darling, how many times to I have to tell you? Do not interrupt a meeting." Elsa shook her head and tugged at his arm, "Daddy come quickly! It's mommy, she won't wake up!" tears running down her face. North's eyes widened with fear, praying to any gods out there for this not to be happening again, for her not to be sick like she was with Elsa. He knelt down, "It's alright Elsa, but I need you to take me to mommy right now."
She nodded and pulled her fathers hand leading him out and towards the library. Idun and Adgar followed closely behind. Once they reached the library, North spotted Katya on the ground. Anna was clinging to her sobbing. He quickly knelt down to check her, "Katya my love!" Idun cleared her throat as she picked up Anna, "Nicholas, is she alright?" He nodded, 'She's alive, but I wonder what happened." as he carefully picked her up. He looked at Idun, "Mother, take Elsa and Anna to the nursery to comfort and play with them." She odded, "Yes of course. Come on sweeties, let us go play a little game." as she carried Anna out and held Elsa's hand.
North and Adgar left to go to the bedroom where a doctor was waiting to check her. They left the room so he could set to examine her. Adgar looked at North, "What do you think happened my son?" He shook his head, "I don't know, but I want high security guarding this castle." Adgar nodded and went to inform Captain Aster Bunnymund at once. North was alone waiting for the news from the doctor. He spotted his mother outside playing with his daughters, relieved they were not troubled at the moment about the current events.
Pitch approached him from behind, "I am sorry for what happened to her majesty." North nodded, "Thank you. What is it you want Pitch? I expect you want your end of the deal?" glancing his way. Pitch shook his head, "No, not anything I need now." as he glanced out at the two princesses playing. He had to admit, the Crown Princess Elsa was quite the eye-catcher for an eight year old. Maybe in a few years time, maybe, just maybe, he thought to himself. He glanced back at North, "your majesty, I do have something I must inform you on. It concerns your wife."
North glanced at him, "What is it?" Pitch sighed, "Well, she started kissing me all over. Asking me to make love to her. I told her no, but she kept on insisting. She then began undoing her ribbons to her corset, trying to entice me. She said she was tired of her king and wanted someone else to give her pleasure. As much as she tried, I continued to refuse. I had to leave and she just yelled at me. I don't know what happened to make her black out though. I am sorry to have to tell you this, especially now." as he finished manipulating North.
North sighed, he couldn't' believe what he was hearing, "Thank you for you honesty Pitch. You may go." Pitch nodded and made his way out. North felt his heart ache, to think that his wife would have an affair, no longer love him anymore. He just couldn't bare to think about it, he will just have to wait until she wakes up. He needs to hear her side before coming to any conclusion.
A few days later, Katya finally woke up and saw North at her side. He sighed with relief, "Katya you've come to." She smiled, but soon faded, "North. the baby, is it?" North held her hand, "We don't know yet my love. Only time will tell us. Please, I need to know what happened my love?" She felt her body shake, "North, Pitch made his moves on me. Trying to make me have an affair with him. I refused, telling him I am always loyal to you and that I was pregnant. And then he..." unable to finish. North frowned, "Katya what did he do?" his tone serious. Katya had a tear roll down, "He punched me in the stomach. Oh North, I fear for out baby." throwing herself into his arms.
North became furious, how dare Pitch lie to him and try to have his wife betray him. Worse of all try and kill their baby. He just remained there, not wanting to leave her side. It wouldn't be until the next day when she received the worse news of her life. The baby passed and Katya was drowning in her sorrow. She was unable to stop the tears from coming, the light in her eyes drained in sorrow. She was just praying and wishing her baby was still alive.
Idun came to inform them of Pitch's banishment from Arrendelle, "He's banished forever Katya. For deceiving Nicholas and killing a royal child. I am sorry my dear for you loss." pulling her daughter in law into a hug. North even tried to sooth her, telling her that life will move on. Time heals all wounds and eventually she moved on, but never forgot the loss of her unborn child.
