(A/N: Here is the side story to the Never-Realm)


It had been a day since they had lost Zane, but according to Dragon, who visited Aspheera in Kryptarium Prison, he had been banished to the Never-Realm. Since Dragon wanted to go alone and not bring the Ninja, they decided to disobey him. Everyone waited in the living room while Lloyd would steal the Traveler's Tea that Dragon would use upon finding Zane. After managing to grab it and incapacitate Dragon, who discovered it, the Ninja use Aspheera's staff to head to the Never-Realm.


Once the Land Bounty was gone, Maggie threw the staff aside before they head down to untie Dragon. The girls come up to Dragon where P.I.X.A.L. unties him and Maggie removes the gag. "I know you're angry, master." Maggie said before he stands up.

"Angry?" He asked. "I am disappointed... in all of you! None of you ever considered it a bad idea. You should've stopped them. Why didn't you?"

"Because I believe that they will succeed." Cirrus said. "And look at my current situation."

"Just because you're pregnant doesn't mean you couldn't stop them!" Out of anger, Dragon soon pushed her down to the ground, shocking P.I.X.A.L. and Maggie. Cirrus soon yelped as she touched her baby bump, and P.I.X.A.L., Maggie and Dragon see some liquid slowly flowing out of her, leaving a stain all over the floor as Cirrus started to breathe heavily. Dragon immediately became worryingly curious. "P.I.X.A.L., what is that?"

"Amniotic fluid." She simply said. "Her water just broke."

"She's about to have her baby." Maggie said. "Early. And it's your fault."

Dragon soon gasped out of shock, realising what he had done. "Cirrus, I'm so sorry." He said.

He kneels down to help her up, but she slaps his hand away. "Don't you dare touch me!" She yelled, frustrated at even the sight of him. "This is all your fault my baby is coming early!" She struggles to get up before P.I.X.A.L. helps her up and they head for her mech while Cirrus had her hands on her baby bump, and Dragon stood where he was, briefly looking at the puddle of amniotic fluid. "Oh, I hope he hasn't killed it."

"I'm gonna go catch up with them." Maggie said before throwing him a mop and kicking a bucket of water towards him. "You clean up the mess since you made it."

"When did you have a bucket of water done up?" He asked, a little curious.

"We placed mops and buckets around the whole place, in case Cirrus broke her water in one of them. Now, start mopping!" She starts to limp away as Dragon watched her leave before he starts to mop up the amniotic fluid.


P.I.X.A.L. flew Cirrus to the hospital as fast as she could while the expecting mother was slowly breathing in and exhaling. "That's it." P.I.X.A.L. said. "Keep breathing. Your contractions are at seven minutes."

"Thanks." Cirrus replied as she kept breathing heavily. Within minutes, they were able to reach the hospital.


As soon as she landed and gently lowered the mech's hand to place Cirrus down, P.I.X.A.L. got out of her mech, ignoring some people, who recognised her and the Silver Ninja's girlfriend heading into the hospital. "Was that the Silver Ninja's girlfriend?" One of them asked.


Once they were inside, a couple of receptionists see the two heading over to the desk. "Samurai X and the Silver Ninja's girlfriend!" One of them said as everyone soon turn to them.

"What happened to her, Samurai X?" The other receptionist asked about Cirrus as she breathes heavily.

"She has gone into labour early." P.I.X.A.L. replied as a nurse came over with a wheelchair. "Master Wu unintentionally harmed her." They help Cirrus into the wheelchair. "Where is Dr. Markers?"

"Just arrived." The first receptionist said. "We'll get you to prenatal and sign you in."

"Contractions are about five minutes apart now." The nurse starts moving Cirrus down the hallway.

P.I.X.A.L. was about to follow them. "Where's the Silver Ninja?" The second receptionist asked. "Shouldn't he be here for her?"

"He went with the others to look for Zane." She soon took off to catch up with Cirrus.


A few minutes later, Maggie had shown up at the hospital, where she was given permission to use the phone to call Cyrus. "Yes, she has just gone into labour." She said before listening for a bit. "No, Blake and the others aren't here. They have gone to look for Zane." She listens a bit more. "Of course, Mr. Borg. Take your time getting here." She soon puts the receiver back on the hook before moving over to sit down at a nearby seat, putting her cane aside.


As soon as they had came into the delivery room a few minutes later, they took Cirrus' clothes for a hospital gown as well as getting P.I.X.A.L. to put a medical garb on over her samurai suit because she'll have to be there to support Cirrus through her contractions since her brother and the boyfriend of the expecting mother was unavailable, which surprised some of the doctors. "Okay, you're fully dilated." The doctor told Cirrus. "Start pushing."

"Okay, Dr. Markers." She replied, muttering before she started to push.


11 minutes and 48 seconds into labour and contraction, Cirrus was still trying her best as she held P.I.X.A.L.'s hand. "Keep it up, Cirrus." P.I.X.A.L. said. "You're doing great."

She soon wailed a little. "I don't know if I can."

"Remember the team motto? Ninja never quit. You may not be a ninja, but you must never quit."

She nods a little. "'Never quit.' Alright."

"Okay, push again." Dr. Markers said as Cirrus started to groan from pushing as hard as she could. "Wait. I see something."

"What?"

"It's the baby's buttocks."

"What are you talking about?"

P.I.X.A.L. looks down and is completely shocked. "It's breech." She said.

Cirrus becomes impatient, grabs P.I.X.A.L. by her arm and pulls her back towards her. "What the fuck does it mean?!"

"It's upside down."

"Which means you'll have to push even harder." Dr. Markers said.

"Remember, never quit."

Cirrus soon groaned before screaming as loud as she could while pushing before stopping. She started to breathe heavily until she heard the sound of a baby crying: Her baby. "Miss Cloud." Cirrus turns to look at Dr. Markers as she held her patient's very first child. "You should be proud of yourself. It's a boy."

"A boy?" She was completely surprised as Dr. Markers turned to some nearby towels. "Wait. I want to see him."

"They're just gonna clean him up." P.I.X.A.L. said, reassuring her.

Quickly cleaning the newborn, removing the umbilical cord and then wrapping him in a blanket, Dr. Markers turned to the new mother. She soon came up to her with her newborn son before she hands him to her and P.I.X.A.L. knelt down to look at him. "Hey, sweetie. Oh, you're so cute."

"Congratulations." Dr. Markers said.

The baby slowly stopped crying as Cirrus turned to the doctor. "Thank you, Dr. Markers."

"You're welcome."


(A/N: Yes, the baby is born, and it's a boy. I am still taking name suggestions, but a certain death is making me come up with one on my own, and shelve the one I liked)
