One Month Later....

Shadow has gotten the Ducati Monster motorcycle and is getting the hang of driving it ever since he got his license. Raven started kindergarten and was a little okay with it. Just a little too shy to talk to classmates and stuff. But at least she's behaving and learning something new.

Shadow is now an agent of the G.U.N like Rouge the Bat. For five years the humans of the G.U.N are happy to have their alien hero get the job.

Right now he's starting to feel a little worried that today is the 23rd of September and that Nebula doesn't work as an agent like him. He keeps pacing back and forth, waiting for Nebula to call him incase she's about to go into labor.

"I know you're worried, Shadow. But pacing back and forth is not gonna help you. Why don't you just take the day off and see how she's doing at the Astronomy Research" Rouge the Bat said.

"I'm just worried my second child will be born any time soon. But you're right, I better check up on her" Shadow said.

"Good idea, Shads. I'll pick up Raven if needed" Rouge said.

"Alright. Be her babysitter if I don't come home with Nebula" Shadow said and walks in the halls to leave.

-

Nebula doing her job at the Astronomy Research Facility as always. She hasn't been flying around for a few months since she's pregnant. So she let Silver do the flying to check on the giant satellite dishes.

She then hears her iPhone vibrating and she looks at it to see who sent her a text message.

It was Shadow. She read the message and it says 'Everything alright?'. Nebula then texted back to him 'Just fine, nothing happened yet with our baby'.

'I'm on my way right now' Shadow said. Nebula looked at her belly and then placed her hand on it.

"Daddy is coming. Just wait" Nebula said quietly.

-

Shadow was halfway to the Astronomy Research Facility and he was still worried that his unborn son might be born any second now.

"Come on Nebula, hang in there so you don't embarrass yourself at your job giving birth there" Shadow said and sees the sign.

Moments later he arrived and he ran in to the Astronomy Research Facility to find Nebula inside, he searches the hallway and then to his shock he saw Nebula holding her stomach.

"Nebula!" he ran up to her and supported her.

"It's time, my water broke" Nebula grunts.

"Oh no, I got to teleport us both to the hospital. Hang on and hold onto me" Shadow said.

"Hurry! Argh! The baby wants to come out!" Nebula screamed in pain.

Shadow then used his teleport ability to teleport himself and Nebula from the building into the hospital, the doctors there saw them appear for the sudden.

"Quick, she's gonna give birth!" Shadow said to the doctors, they placed Nebula on a bed and they go straight to a room to get the baby out.

"Nebula, look at me. Deep breaths and stay calm!" Shadow said, holding her hand.

"ARGH!!! IT HURTS!!!" Nebula screamed.

"Hang on!" Shadow said. Then one of the doctors pushes Nebula's legs aside to let the baby come out.

"I see the head, push. Push!" the doctor said. Nebula held Shadow's hand hard as she struggled to get the baby out.

"We are never doing this again, Shadow!" Nebula screamed in agony and held Shadow's hand really tight.

"Almost done Mrs. Hedgehog! You're doing great!" the doctor said. With one final push the baby was born, wailing for the first time. Nebula was panting after all pushing and almost fainted.

"It's a boy" the doctor said and cuts the umbilical cord which caused Nebula to scream in agony but Shadow held her hand tightly to calm her down.

"WAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!" the baby hedgehog wailed out loud. The doctors cleaned the baby with a towel and wrapped him up. Shadow takes his son in his arms and looks down to look at his newborn son.

"Waaaa.....waaaaa!" the baby wailed and didn't even open his eyes yet. The baby boy has his mother's fur color and his father black stripes on his quills, he even has peach skin color on his arms, chest, and belly.

"Shhh.....shhh.....Don't cry little one. Daddy's here....Daddy's got you" the alien father hushed his son softly.

The baby stopped crying and Shadow handed him over to Nebula. She looked down at him and smiled with tearful eyes.

"He's so gorgeous. He's got my fur color" Nebula said.

"Yeah. What should we call him?" Shadow asked.

Nebula remembered studying the planets and thought of naming her baby son Neptune. She remembered that planet Neptune was discovered by Urbain Le Verrier in September 23, 1846. Now that her son is born on September 23rd, she made up her mind of what she should call her son.

"We'll call him Neptune the Hedgehog" Nebula said.

"Good name Nebula, That's the perfect name" Shadow said. He then saw Neptune suck his thumb a bit.

"Awww too cute" Shadow shook his head, he really liked that he looked cute.

"Mr. Hedgehog. Your friend with your daughter is here" the mobian male jaguar doctor said. Shadow lifted a brow. He then saw Rouge come in with Raven.

"Hi Shadow, congratulations to your new child" Rouge said and let Raven go to her mother and newborn brother.

"Mom, Dad. Is that my baby brother?" Raven asked cheerfully.

"Yep, his name is Neptune" the mother said and saw her son opening his eyes a bit, "Oh my gosh. He opened his eyes" she gasped. Her son has his mother's eyes.

"Wah?" Neptune looked at his sister for the first time.

"Hi Neptune. My name is Raven" Raven said to him. Neptune only blinked since he was too young to understand.

"That's your big sister, silly" Nebula giggled.

"Pardon me, Mrs. Hedgehog. We're gonna have to do some results to see if your baby is healthy and stuff. Your family will be with you until you regained your strength" the doctor said.

"Okay then" Nebula handed Neptune to the doctor. She then turned her attention to Shadow, Rouge and Raven.

"We'll come back tomorrow Nebula I promise honey" Shadow said.

"I know you will, hon" Nebula said.

Shadow, Raven and Rouge left the hospital in Rouge's car while Nebula waited for Neptune's results if the child is healthy.

-

The next day; Shadow and his daughter Raven are on their way to the hospital to see how Nebula and the baby are doing.

"Is Mommy gonna be okay, Daddy?" Raven asked her alien father.

"She's gonna be fine, little Raven. She is strong in her heart" Shadow said to her.

"Okay, Daddy" Raven nodded, "Is my baby brother gonna come home too?"

"We'll see. But be careful with him since he's just a day and 4 hours old right now" Shadow said.

"Okay" Raven nodded.

They soon approached the hospital and parked their car at the parking lot. They go inside to get to Nebula's room and they find her holding Neptune in her arms. They go up to them to see what Nebula has to say about him.

"What did the doctors say?" Shadow asked.

"He's perfectly healthy and he is unable to get deadly diseases, but he can get normal ones" Nebula said.

"That's good. So how are you feeling, Nebs?" Shadow asked.

"I'm doing great. But I need to wait to get back to my job since I've become a mother to a new baby in the family. So I better tell my colleagues" Nebula said.

"Don't worry, hon. Silver already got that taken care of. He told me last night. The professor told me that you can take the day off" Shadow said.

"Thank you Shadow, you are very supportive" Nebula said and got out of the bed with Neptune.

"Anything for my wife" Shadow said.

"Let's go home now, first I need to assign that I can leave the hospital" Nebula said.

"Don't forget Neptune, Mommy" Raven said.

"I won't forget him" Nebula smiled.

Neptune was sleeping in Nebula's arms and the family walked to the receptionist in the main room to sign out Nebula from the hospital. Shadow filled in the papers and payed the bills while Nebula held Neptune and Raven watching.
