As Leo and I were walking home from a long battle, I started getting really dizzy. "Whoa..."

"Are you okay Aqua?" Leo asked me worryingly.

"I feel so dizzy, I think I'm losing blood..." I felt some blood coming out from the glass shard on my thigh.

"We should go see Donnie now."

"You can go see Donnie, I'll be in the pool before the moon disappears."

"Okay. I'll be in the lab while you heal in the pool." he kissed my cheek and limped to Donnie's lab.

"Okay..." I collapsed a bit by the tire swing. "God... Keep it together Aquamarine..." I said to myself as I was crawling to the pool and slipping into it.

(The pool)

~Leo's Perspective~

I limped right into Donnie's lab only to find out that he wasn't inside. "Donnie? Where are you?" I looked around and sighed. I found his first aid kit and decided to fix myself up.

I started stitching myself and it hurt like shell. "Damn this hurts more than I thought..." After I finished stitching my leg a while later, I wrapped it up using the gauze and tied it up. "There, that wasn't so bad." I said, smiling. I found a walking stick by Donnie's table and used to to get around. The cut still hurts, but I'm okay. I crutched myself over to Aqua, who looked like she was sleeping.

"Aqua, are you okay honey?" I asked her.

She woke up a bit and looked at me. "Yeah, I'm okay. All of my wounds healed." she said as she got out of the pool and drying herself with my towel.

"That's good. I have to wait a while until I'm fully healed."

"It's okay. I'll nurse you back to health." she smiled.

I blushed and chuckled. "It's like you're the boyfriend and that I'm the girlfriend."

She giggled as her legs dried up and got up from the floor. "Come on. Let's go check on the others." Her ears perked. "Huh?"

"What's up Aqua?" I asked.

"It's that barking again."

"What do you think it is?"

"I don't know. Let's check it out."

"Okay. Lead the way."

"Okay." she answered as she helped me up the stairs to the dojo.

As we walked in the dojo, we saw my brothers, Haylie, and Sensei gathering around. Then I saw a brown, black, and white tail that was wagging happily. And I also saw a beige tail wagging too. 'Why are there tails wagging there?' I wondered to myself as I got closer.

~My Perspective~

As I got a bit close, I was wondering what was going on. "Um guys, why are you all gathered around?"

I saw Haylie turn around and she smiled. "Hey Aqua, you're back!"

"I told you I would be back."

"How was it?"

"I finally defeated my enemy." I smiled.

"That's great Aqua! Congrats!!"

"Thank you." I smiled and saw 2 tails there. I couldn't see because the guys were blocking it. "So what's going on?" I asked.

"We found doggies!" Mikey smiled.

"Yes they did. Everyone found these dogs during their patrol. We gave them some food and a bath as well." Sensei explained.

"They're really friendly."

"Where did you find them?" Leo asked.

"We found them where Dragon Gate was. I gave them both of them check ups. The boy dog is okay while the girl dog is pregnant. Her puppies inside of her are okay too."

'Pregnant female dog? If only...' I thought to myself sadly as I thought about my dogs I've lived with back in my home village. "Can I see them?" I asked.

"Sure." Haylie smiled and moved out of the way.

When I looked at the dogs that were wagging their tails, it was my dogs! My actual dogs! I broke out into tears and started to cry.

"Baby? What's wrong?" Leo asked me as he rubbed my back.

"Is there something wrong?" Haylie added.

I wiped my tears and smiled. "This can't be! Those are my family dogs! Zeus! Bandit!"

Zeus ran into my arms and licked my face over and over. I cried happily with tears running down my face and hugged him a lot. "Zeus, my special dog." I cried happily and smiled as he licked my tears away.

I wiped my tears and looked ahead to see Bandit on a soft comforter with a blanket over her. "Bandit!" I crawled to her and hugged her gently. She was nuzzling my cheek. "I'm so glad you're both okay." I shed more happy tears. "How did you both escape from the village? I thought you both perished."

Zeus barks the message and I translated the message to the guys.

"Oh!" I grew surprised.

"What did he say?" Mikey asked.

"He says that he and Bandit ran away from our burning home. Then they were captured by one of Red Claw's goons, and it was a girl who actually saved them. She released them here in New York after the Moonstone Village massacre. They both ran away and started living on the streets where Dragon Gate was at. Zeus was the only one that was caring for his wife by bringing her food and lots of love due to her unborn pups. So until today came, you found both of them and he also says thank you for everything you've done. And he also said thank you for bringing us together once more after so long."

"Aww." Mikey smiled. "They're so cute together. I'm happy for them."

"Me too. And I'm glad that you're both okay." I hugged them happily. I heard whine coming from Bandit, and it made me worry.

"She's whining." Mikey frowned.

"No duh Mikey." Raph added.

"Is she okay?" Donnie and Haylie both asked.

"Are you okay Bandit? What's wrong?" she whines more and lays down. Zeus sniffed her and barks worryingly. I sniffed her as well and gasped. "Oh my god..."

"What's wrong? Is she okay?" Leo asked me.

"It's time! The puppies are ready to be born!"

"Oh my god!" Haylie said worryingly.

"Oh my pizza!!!" Mikey ran around the room going crazy.

"Mikey, calm down!" Raph slapped him.

"Doctor get me some warm water, towels, and the umbilical scissors! Oh and get me some cold water. I'm thirsty."

"Okay!" Donnie said as he was running to the lab.

"Haylie. You wanna help me with Bandit?"

"Me?" she asked.

"Yes you. Come on, you can give me the materials when I need them."

"Okay." she blushed.

Bandit was given all of Zeus' love.

"Aww." Haylie smiled.

Zeus looked at his wife with worry and Haylie pets his head, knowing that Bandit will be okay. Zeus left with Sensei, Mikey, and Raph to the living room so that we could have privacy as Bandit gives birth. Leo and Haylie stood by me and Bandit.

After Donnie came back with the materials, I started working with Haylie, Leo, and Donnie by my side. "Okay Bandit, just calm down. Everything's gonna be okay." I said to her. 'I hope this goes well...' I prayed to myself as the birthing process started.
