Chiro had been so excited for the kids to be born, he'd stay in the lab for days on end.

A while back, everyone sat down and talked about having kids. None of them really ever thought about it until Nova and Otto said something about it. It made everyone realize that they wanted some kids, so they talked about a way to have them. Chiro wanted to have the kids with them as well, just none of his DNA being involved.

In all honesty, he did not want to see how human DNA would mix with monkey DNA as much as he wouldn't mind having one of his own with Sprx. The others agreed with that sentiment.

They even discussed how many they wanted. Ten, to be exact, one for each pair in the team. It took them a bit to figure out how exactly they'd go about it in a consistent way. Eventually, there Chiro was, waiting at around the time they were expected to be born. Of course he didn't stay there the whole time, he had his responsibilities as well, but he felt like a kid again with his excitement.

His eyelids fell before his eyes shot wide open again. Chiro didn't want to fall asleep yet. He wanted to be awake for their births, even if it would take a while. When he heard footsteps coming closer to him, he didn't move his head to see who it was.

Whoever came by sat down next to him.

"Thought you would be in your bed by now, Kid." Sprx started.

"Don't wanna miss their first moments," he replied before chuckling, "and I thought I told you to stop calling me that. I'm not a kid anymore."

Sprx kissed his cheek. "You're still a kid by our standards, Chiro. You're gonna have to get rid of me if you want me to stop calling you that." He teased.

Chiro yawned. "Okay, fair enough."

"Get some sleep. You're gonna doze off before they even come out."

"Alright." He lied down. "Just wake me up when they're out, okay?"

"You say that like they're coming out tonight."

"Gibson did say we're expecting them soon. It could be tonight, or it could be three days from now. You don't know, Sprx."

"Man is it me, or are you starting to sound more like Antauri?"

"Probably just you."

"Either way, you got a point. Sleep well, Kid."

He nodded before closing his eyes. He held Sprx's hand.

"Chiro, oh Chiro!"

Chiro opened his eyes, waking up to being gently shaken. Nova was right in front of him with a smile on her face.

"Wake up," she said, "they're here."

He sat up as he yawned. He looked at her again, only this time noticing something he didn't before. In one of her arms, there was a little monkey. The baby was purple, a perfect mix of red and blue. That one had to be Sprx and Gibson's kid. Once it registered in his head, his eyes shot wide open. He looked at the others to see they were holding the other babies. Chiro looked back at Nova.

"You can hold him. I can go grab one of the others if you want."

He carefully took him out of her arm. At times he forgot how small the others truly were. His lips pressed together as tears formed in his eyes.

"Chiro? Are you okay?" She asked.

He nodded. "They're adorable."

"They are."

In the meantime, Antauri looked over at Sprx trying to make one of the kids smile. His attempts were failing miserably, as their dark red infant was fuming like he was going to explode with anger. If one thought Nova could get pissed and catch fire, then they hadn't seen this monkey yet. He looked back at Gibson.

"I don't mean to sound ungrateful, Gibson," they started, "but are you sure that one's mine and Sprx's, not mine and Nova's? He's… Quite a fiesty one."

"I thought he was yours and Nova's at first as well, but it says he has yours and Sprx's DNA." Gibson confirmed, holding up the device.

They looked back at the kid. No matter what Sprx did, his anger kept going.

"...I have a feeling Jet Cloud isn't going to suit him." Antauri sighed.

"Cloud? Possibly. Jet? Definitely not." Gibson responded. "I know how long it took you two to come up with something."

Sprx walked up to Antauri. "Hey, uh, do you think you can calm him? I can't seem to do anything. He's just like a volcano ready to explode."

"Of course." Antauri handed Soma and Marino off to Gibson. He took the child out of Sprx's hands and held him. "It's okay. There's no need for such anger."

Within seconds, he started to become calmer. The more Antauri soothed him, the more he was serene like the others. He buried his face into Antauri's metal chest. His hand touched their surface.

"...Wait!" Sprx said, as if he just had a realization. Thankfully, their kid didn't start up again. "We can call him 'Magma'!"

Gibson hummed. "That wouldn't be too bad for him. As he did say, Antauri, he's like a volcano ready to explode. Magma would suit him well, or Volcano even."

Antauri looked at the baby he held in his arms. "...Magma would be nice."

Everyone's attention soon turned to Chiro, who was crying his eyeballs out holding multiple of the kids in his arms. He sniffed looking at them.

"How did we not have them sooner?!" His voice cracked.

A few of them could only smile and chuckle. None of them had any words to say towards how he felt.

All of them were joyful to be parents.

A/N: This one-shot collection is what happens when you make 10 fankids outta nowhere, you gotta use them in some way lol. I mean ofc I'll draw stuff of the fankids, I'm just still working on the reference/character sheets so I can't do much with them in terms of drawing just yet. If you have any questions, you can send asks on my Tumblr SunsetCarnation264 and anons are open in case you don't have an account on there.
