It started off when Joanna rushed outside in the middle of the night, looking for her husband, Logan. She spent about a few hours, looking for him in the house. Her breathing was heavy, as she ran into the woods not worried about her 3 kids and 2 toddlers who were fast asleep in their rooms dreaming sweet dreams. Nor was she worried about her 8 month pregnant body that was due any minute. Her only mindset was on her missing husband who easily put five kids to sleep, and disappeared. "Logan!" She shouted, while running deeper into the woods.
Joanna noticed that the weather started to change drastically. It went from a cold clear night to a freezing heavy storm. Her blue night gown hugged tightly against her curves due to the heavy rain, she shivered harshly as the wind began to blow throughout the woods. The sky looked terrifying from where she stood In the middle of dark and wet trees. Fog hid away unknown creatures that lurked around every corner and the bright eyes of predators that watched her from a distance.
"Logan please!" She shouted once more.
She twirled around while her heart raged against her chest like a sledgehammer. Her shivering, even more rampant as the wind had gotten worse. This storm was not safe, especially when she's 8 months pregnant.
Where are you Logan? Joanna thought. Why did you leave me…
Suddenly the hopes of finding Logan slowly started to disappear, when she stopped to take a quick breath. Water started gushing out from her and trickling down her legs, she looked down at her stomach and cried. "This cannot be happening…"
Joanna slowly started walking back to where she came, but she couldn't move after a few steps of walking. The contractions went from 4 minutes to 2 minutes apart. The baby started to apply pressure in her uterus. As Joanna fell on her back screaming in agony lightning flashed across the night sky, the trees shuffled wildly against each other, and the ground was flooded because of the heavy the rain. "Not now." She begged her unborn child who was close to coming out.
Her natural curls was silk wet against her covering up majority of her face, sweat and rain mixed together. A wave of water circled around Joanna's body like a swirling pool. It took a lot of strength to push the baby out, the energy she once had was gone. She is cold, wet, and tired. She started sobbing as she begged for her husband to come back and help her. After having the baby she looked at it and smiled.
A baby girl...
3 boys and 3 girls what a nice bliss, she noticed something different about the baby though. Green eyes? Where did those come from? She thought.
Each one of her kids had grey or brown eyes, this baby is the first to have green eyes. " I'm going to name you, Dezirae." Joanna whispered weakly. She was too tired to get up, drained of energy and freezing cold who wouldn't be? After having Dezirae, she passed out. The baby started crying due to hunger and how cold she is. Very soon Dezirae's eyes started dropping, and the storm began to disperse, the swirling pool disappeared.
Logan stood up in the tree looking at his almost dead wife and new born daughter. Even though his daughter was a threat, he couldn't leave them like that. I'm going to regret this but I can't leave them like this. Logan thought. Waving his hand toward his wife and new born baby. He teleported them to the house were it was warm but it wasn't enough they was on the verge of dying, he have to go through extreme measures. He called the police after thinking rationally.
"911 speaking, what is your emergency?" A lady said on the other side of the line, typing away on her computer.
"I would like to report my wife and new born on the verge of dying." He replied coldly, he ran his hand through his wet hair in frustration.
"Please give your name and address to the house." She said in a snarky tone. Logan was getting annoyed by the minute, he have better things to do and that's to prepare for his youngest daughter.
" 78 Bluewood drive, 77810, my name is not important to you. Focus on the important matters and do your job." He replied.
The lady didn't like his tone nor the way he spoke to her but she quickly went to work because she needs the money. "The ambience will be there shortly" the lady said then hung up. What an ass, She thought and went back to sending emails to her overseas boyfriend.
Logan teleported to his wife and smiled sadly. "You're the most beautiful women I've ever laid my eyes upon, I'm doing this for our safety Joanna. Please don't hate me." Logan moved a piece of hair behind Joanna's ear, he placed a kiss on her forehead and teleported away when he heard the front door being bust down. Flash lights echoed on each wall, the swat team rushed in. After them was the medics who found Joanna and Dezirae.
"There is a woman in her mid 30s and what seems to be a new born baby, they are currently on the couch barely breathing" man 1 from the medic team announced.
"Found 3 kids and 2 toddlers and the room down the hallway sleep, they are okay." Man 1 from the swat team announced checking each of their pulse.
The medics went to work immediately on Joanna and Dezirae while a few members of the swat team collected the kids. The medics told the hospital doctors to have a room ready. Instead of using the ambulance they took the portal tubes, it's not stable but it's the fastest traveling route. The portal tubes are the new addition created by the president, he wanted to create the safest way to travel when there is traffic, and to decrease the amount of car accidents. The tubes are like the ones in Futurama, but expect the inside of the tubes look like a portal. The president is thinking of making the tubes invisible to the naked eye but still able to sense that it's there by using the 6 sense. He also wanted to make sure people can walk through it with no problem.
Rushing through the doors the medics push Dezirae and Joanna to their rooms, the nurse hooked them up to wires and placed the IV cord in their arms.
" Joanna heart beat is up to 40 beats per minute, her blood pressure is 80-89 mm. We need to take action on her now!" The nurse yelled as they got the defibrillator ready. The doctor looked at the time and charge up the defibrillator, once it was ready he placed it on Joanna chest. "Clear" he pushed down on the pads and it sent a shock wave throughout her body. Her heart beat went up to 60 minutes per beat she's is stable. Dezirae on the other hand is having trouble bouncing back, even with CPR.
"If she has powers she should be able to heal herself." The doctor said reading through Joanna's file. "It says here that there are 4 mortals which is Joanna, 2 boys and the 1 girl. And the mutants are their father, 1boy and should be 2 girls..." the doctor sled his glasses up his nose trying to understand the situation better "the baby can't be mortal..." the doctor said trailing off his sentence.
The doctor immediately start to work on the baby, trying to find a solution to why she is mortal. Usually when you have a big family such as an even numbers and up the genes are equal. Half the family will have it and the others won't. If the family is odd then their is only one person in the family that is mutant.
The nurse quickly roll the mother out the emergency room and into a temporary guest room where her 3 kids and 2toddlers are being held. "Nurse bring me my gloves." the doctor yelled as he stare deeply at Dezirae.
The nurse gather the doctor's tools to perform surgery. The doctor began to outline where he's going to cut, grabbing a knife he tried to cut open Dezirae chest but the knife isn't budging. "What the hell?" Said the doctor as he attempted to try again but this time the blade broke. Dezirae's eyes shot open and glare at the doctor. Even as a new born her brain is developed in a way people can't explain, the Adam apple bob up and down as he swallowed his saliva. Her green eyes pierce his soul reading him, and watching what he's going to do next. "Dear God." He prayed as soon as he said that she started crying and outside began to pour down raining.
"Give me milk now, hurry." The nurse rush out the room to fetch some formula milk, once retrieved she rush back to the room and hand the milk to the doctor. He shakes it up and feed it to the baby, her cries substance as she sucked on the bottom to get the milk ,and the rain outside has disappear, that could only be one thing...
"Don't put this on file… under any circumstances do not tell anyone about the baby, say she is mortal, sir I beg you. You know what will happen to her if they know" The nurse said frowning. The doctor knew the risk and this isn't the first baby to have control over more then one power. Their are three others just like Dezirae but with different powers.
"They will find out regardless …" the doctor argued.
"Let her live her life she deserve it."
"Fine" the doctor sigh. "We'll tell tell her mother once she's 15."
Dezirae eyes went from dark green to light, her smile is so bright the lights in the room went out. "Nature is your key little one." The doctor whispered.
