"You're kidding…", Mo had a smile on his face before he wrapped his arms around Ciro, "I'm happy for you, sister.", with a laugh. "At least you'll be able to attend the birth for this one.", Ciro smirked.

Mo gasped in surprise, "Really? You want me to be there?", and Storm smiled softly, "You are Ciro's brother which makes you sort of a brother to me, and our daughter deserves to meet you, her own uncle.", rubbing her belly warmly.

"A niece?! Oh, I am going to have a niece.", Mo gushed happily as he took his turn to hug Storm, smiling joyfully, "This is great! She's going to be beautiful like both of you, girls.".

Storm chuckled, "That's for certain, but we're going to make sure that Minna knows right from wrong, so she won't be a brat.", with a grin, and Mo blinked, "You, you've named her already? Minna, huh? That actually suits her perfectly.", with a hum.

"That's what we thought.", Ciro smiled before she chuckled. "And Mo, don't you already have a niece thanks to Tara?", she pointed out as Mo went red faced in embarrassment.

Mo chuckled sheepishly, "True...It just feels a bit different when you have a biological niece next to an adoptive niece...But I love Reva as much as I am sure I'll love Minna.".

Ciro nodded, "Fair enough...Gosh...We are so going to have so much chaos here with the older little ones, and when Minna comes, they're gonna have another playmate, and of course, school is going to be even more intense, but I am sure like in that movie, all of them is going to help each other and fight for each other...".

Gizmo replied, "And I and Kitty will be on babysitting days and nights, and eventually, some of the school drop-offs and pick-ups...After all, Libra Haven is a big, big family, and we all stick together, right, Kitty?", with a smile as he squeezed Shadowcat's hand warmly.

Shadowcat nodded, "Absolutely positively.", with a grin, as Susan returned with the twins in her arms, "Something tells me that I missed big news.", with a raised eyebrow as she sat down, and adjusted the twins to her maternity nursing shirt which she switched from her casual shirt, immediately feeding her twins.

Storm smiled warmly, "We're pregnant, and I am the one carrying.", and Susan gasped softly, "Oh, that's wonderful news. How far along?".

Ciro blushed, "We did it on Christmas Eve...So, Ororo is almost two months along while Minna, our daughter is three months developmentally.". Storm nodded with a chuckle, "So it would be definitely around June.".

"Sounds just like me then.", Susan smiled. "Of course, you know they're coming rather than what happened with me and my parents. Plus, you'll probably not have to give birth in the middle of a whole war zone!".

Nods of agreement and little bits of laughter rang around, and so, soon, the new mothers told everybody else of the news, and Libra Haven was eventually busy with helping in decorating the nursery, helping the mothers pick out baby clothes, the essentials, and all.

In May, a baby shower was apparently set up for the new mothers, and they happily settled with more gifts either for themselves or for their daughter. Seeing so many little ones crawling and running around and having gained so much experience in babysitting when Gizmo and Shadowcat was too busy in searching for a college or some place to date in public, Lacey soon got bitten by the baby bug.

Late at night, after the baby shower party was done and everything, Lacey was still awake as Doc is sleeping. She couldn't sleep without thinking about the little ones, and how Storm looked so radiant with a full-term baby bump...

She has been making love with Doc for the past year and half since their first time, and they knew the Quantonium listened to their desire of waiting until they're ready to be parents. Lacey glanced at Doc, and remembered all those times of lovemaking where Doc never led the way, giving Lacey the controls, which she greatly appreciated, but now she is ready to be taken on her back, not by that bastard, but her wonderful mad scientist...

She smiled and nodded to herself, and then shook Doc's shoulder, "Richard...Richard...Hey...I need to talk to you...", after flickering her lamp on.

"Lacey?", Doc groaned as he was still half asleep when she got him up. He had to cover his eyes as they were adjusting to the light. "Something the matter?", he asked.

Lacey smiled softly, "Something very important, yes...", shyly looking at Doc, "I...I want to have a baby.". That comment instantly woke Doc the rest of the way, and he stared at Lacey with shock and confusion, "I..I thought we decided to wait...Are..are you sure, Lacey?".

Lacey shook her head. "Richard… I've been thinking this for quite some time and, with everything else going on with the others… I thought maybe it's time for us to take that plunge, you know?".

Doc exhaled slowly, looking at Lacey, and he can tell that she has been thinking quite a lot about this...He whispered softly, "I'm scared...". Lacey blinked in surprise, and then smiled reassuringly as she grabbed his hands in hers.

"Richard, face it, the little ones literally have powers and all. Why, I haven't forgotten the first time of Lily and Nathan's powers!", Lacey chuckled as she remembered that back in February, on their birthday, they revealed their powers after wanting to show off like their uncle Henry. Lily, ironically, is able to grow flowers and vegetables to incredible sizes, and Nathan, he turned out to be a creator of ice and snow.

This nearly caused the X-Men to tear up, for Nathan reminded them of Bobby aka Iceman, another X-Men. Beast and Wolverine realized that the X-Gene was random, but Shadowcat and Storm had a feeling that Bobby chose to be reborn, to have a new life and identity...not that they told anyone about it, but still, it feels good to think that.

Doc nodded with a small chuckle, "True...Libra Haven is truly full of monsters and mutants and size-changing giants...Even...if our children is able to control a power or something...I'm scared to be a father...What if they get hurt in my lab if one of them wants to be a scientist like me?", biting his lip nervously and guiltily...

Lacey gently cupped his face, "I'm scared too, Richard. I worry that maybe we'll have a daughter that might make the same mistakes I did… that she may find a charmer who's no different from Derek… but that's the risk we take, and we can't simply ruin a chance for happiness for things that might not ever happen.".

Doc looked at her, exhaling slowly and softly as he enveloped her hands on his cheeks, and took them off to kiss her palms gently and warmly, and spoke with a small smile, "How am I so lucky to have found you, my dear?".

Lacey giggled softly, "Very lucky...And we are not alone. We literally have a family here in Libra Haven to help us and everything. And... there's something else...I want you to take me the normal way...", with an exhale.

"I don't know… it's late and…", Doc said as she kissed him on the lips. After a few moments, he chuckled, "On second thought, I probably won't be able to fall asleep now.".

Lacey smiled, "That's my wonderful mad scientist.", before removing her summer nightdress, purring softly as she kneeled and moved her figure in motions as she removed her bra and underwear while Doc quickly removed his shirt and boxer shorts, and leaned forward as Lacey got closer to him, pressing herself to him, taking one breast in his mouth, with one hand on the other breast, and his other hand going straight to pump into Lacey.

Lacey moaned, cried out in pleasure, and gasped, ever so happy that Doc knows her so well, as she went to wrap his meat in her hand, to give it some friction time.

"Lacey…", Doc whispered at the pleasure he was feeling with her hand on his dick. "I know.", Lacey whispered right back as she slowly stared to build up a pace, rubbing it.

Doc went back to suckling and rolling Lacey's breast in his mouth as he teased and caressed and squeezed the other breast, and slowly pumped his other hand inside Lacey's vagina.

Sounds of pleasure echoed through the bedroom as they kept it all up for 30 minutes straight before Lacey shouted out in pleasure, her first orgasm shooting through her as she slowly recovered, panting as she took a little break, rolling over as Doc panted a little bit from the activity of pleasuring Lacey, with his meat to full mast, tight, full, and already leaking with pre-cum.

Doc looked over to Lacey, exhaling deeply as he watched her with love and amazement and a bit of concern...He heard Lacey earlier...In the past times of love making, Lacey has been riding him in so many ways, but never, ever had chosen to be the bottom, literally, as it was the position she was in when that Dietl bastard nearly was going to do the crime of rape...

"Lacey...Do you really want to do the normal way? I mean, I never minded it when you rode me, my dear...", Doc asked softly.

"It's alright… I can handle it now… I'm not scared anymore, I trust you.", Lacey gave a sincere smile before leaning up for another kiss.

Doc kissed her back, reveling in the sensation of love, and nodded as he went around Lacey, to scoot forward, and took a deep breath as he wrapped Lacey in his arms, kissing her everywhere, slowly lining up, and penetrated into her, hearing Lacey's moans of pleasure, along with a few happy tears she let loose, realizing that this is truly what this feels like...No force-pinning, no mockery, nothing, just compassion, adoration, and lots of love from her beloved cockroach man.

"Richard...", Lacey moaned as she felt him slowly pushing his way into her. Not unlike before but in this case, he was the one in control, not her. But she was able to keep herself from worrying and feeling scared as Doc continued to gently caress her body and give her soft kisses as he moved in slowly.

Doc murmured lovingly, "I love you, Lacey Casciano.", and Lacey smiled at him, "I love you, Richard Lebre.", before moaning again as he moved deeper into her, and it kept going as she loved feeling so good by Doc's caresses, soft kisses, moaning at every moment of pleasure before she gasped out in pleasure when he found her G-spot, "Yes, Richard!".

"I got you, my dear.", Doc smiled gently at her as he kissed her on the lips as he moved back and forth slowly in thrusts, setting the pace until the moment Lacey would want more.

Lacey gave light cries and light pants of pleasure every second that he was slowly moving in and out of her, trying to build up a smooth rhythm of his thrusts before they could really start pushing forward.

After five minutes of this slow, smooth pace, Lacey soon found that she wanted more, and she wrapped herself around Doc, whispering, "Faster, please.", and Doc nodded, increasing the pace, leaning in to kiss Lacey's skin everywhere as he caressed a bit more passionately, hearing Lacey's heavy cries and pants of pleasure.

"If that is what you want.", Doc told her before he did just that and started to move faster and harder, once more really starting to fire her up as he slowly tried to rediscover her g-spot.

Lacey closed her eyes and enjoyed the bursts of pleasure as she cried out and moaned even louder, feeling her G-spot get hit successfully, and opened her eyes to see Doc caressing and kissing her skin, and she squeezed him closer, leaning up to kiss his skin, feeling the fire inside her igniting so fiercely.

This went for almost 20 minutes before Lacey heard Doc groan, "I'm so close to bursting, Lacey.", and Lacey brought his neck closer, cradling his cheeks, "Then mean it, make me want it.".

"You'll regret saying that comment, my dear.", Doc smiled as he kissed her lips and held her tightly as he started a few more really hard thrusts as Lacey moaned out with how much pleasure that was giving her with how close to the edge she was.

"Yes, yes, Richard! Please! Yes! I'm just almost there!", Lacey cried out between moans of incredible, mind-blowing pleasure, and Doc still held her tightly while he moved a hand to grab her hip closer and thrusted two more hard thrusts before Lacey shouted in pleasure and ecstasy, "Richard!", her second orgasm on full blast through her, and Doc, only 30 seconds later, shouted, "Lacey!" as he gave out, releasing his seed into her womb.

Upon hearing their declaration of wanting to do right by their children, the Quantonium decided to give not one, not two, but three children, but different in ways, knowing that this is a chance that the couple want to take risks to be parents they themselves could not with their parents previously.

The loads of Dr. Cockroach aka Dr. Richard Lebre's sperm swam and swam, finding the pristine trio of eggs, and nine heads led into teams, with each of the three forming into a big, strong sperm, poking and breaking through the eggs, and together, the triplet eggs became successfully conceived into fetuses, with the eggshells still remarkably intact, shaping into ovals, a mix of human and cockroach egg shape.

There will be still uterine cords through the eggshells to the fetuses, and the eggs themselves will be a bit translucent yet solid, and they will grow to five-month-old size, with the babies themselves, about 7 months old, and they will then be viable enough to come out of the womb and thrive on the remains of the cords for one more month before hatching in their fully grown 9 month old development.

But Lacey and Doc don't know all of that as they slowly recovered, having collapsed from all the mind-blowing pleasure and incredible love-making time.

"I... I did it...", Lacey whispered to herself as she cuddled with Doc. "What's that?", Doc asked as she smiled and kissed his cheek.

"I was able to have sex that way... with you on top and all. I... I got over my fears and past pain...", Lacey replied softly. Doc smiled warmly as he tenderly held her cheek, "Yes, you did...I am so proud of you, my dear Lacey...I love you so much.", before kissing her on the lips ever so lovingly.

"I love you so much too, Richard.", Lacey smiled right back as she tightened her hug around him. Doc exhaled softly as he relaxed, caressing her skin ever so gently before reaching her belly, "Do you think it worked? Even with my cockroach half?".

Lacey hummed, "If you think about it logically, a baby would well be over 75 percent human with a bit of cockroach...After all, I have Quantonium, but not a cockroach half like you do, and I am fully human...".

Doc nodded softly, "That's very true...Still, you're right...We can be different unlike our parents...At least there wouldn't be any courtships to push, or emotional neglect for we will be there for our baby with lots of love and many family values to teach them.".

"No, thankfully we have a new family that won't judge in the slightest.", Lacey smiled as she kissed him once more. "And that's what truly makes me happy… that we don't have to worry about those closest to us will say or think.".

Doc smiled warmly, "That, I can agree with, my dear. Now, are you happy enough to finally go sleep?", with a quiet chuckle, and Lacey giggled, "I am, and I am quite tired now. Thank you, Richard, for making me feel so good the normal way for the first time technically.".

Doc nodded, "You're very welcome, Lacey.", and he grabbed the blankets, with Lacey being spooned by him, falling asleep to dreams of parenthood and all.

A few weeks later, it was somewhere around June, and Storm is currently visiting Steve and Peggy's hanger, with Ciro at her side, talking to Peggy while Steve is out with Henry for a father-son day.

"Certainly look like you're ready to go any day now.", Peggy chuckled as Storm rubbed her belly. "Should be but you never know. Might be late births so it still could be a few weeks.", Ciro said.

Storm nodded, "We never plan the schedule of babies anywhere...Still, I hope it's soon. Minna's getting really heavy on my back...I am starting to feel very cramped...".

Peggy winced lightly, "Yep, that's sure signs that you are truly going to pop sooner or later. Has she been giving you trouble during the nights?".

Storm blinked thoughtfully, "As of late, no, not since I discovered that eating peanut butter on crackers made her active.", and Ciro chuckled, "Don't forget the dancing sessions she gave me against my stomach when I held you, Ororo. I think I still have a bruised kidney somewhere.".

Giggles echoed around the room, and Peggy chuckled, "It's quite funny when you have time to think about it.", and Storm smiled, "Indeed.", before suddenly, a white-blue portal appeared, with the person of Howard Stark, pale and wild-haired, looking before giving out a relieved laugh, "Yes! Peggy, Peggy, do you hear me?!", with sounds of gunshots and shouts being heard in the distance.
