Chapter 16

Lainey

I laid on the bed, and stared down at my bulging stomach. I'd had a chance to study some gynecology when I was younger, not much, and what I knew I mostly got from old text books, but I knew what it looked like when a woman was in her second trimester. I had been pregnant for only a short period of time, and my son was almost fully developed.

I wouldn't have long until he was born. Child birth was a painful, dangerous process, one that could easily kill the mother if there were complications. I wasn't sure how much Markathus knew about human biology or how to catch a baby, but I knew that my pregnancy was special and any number of things could happen.

The labor would probably be intensive. The child felt strong. He was heavy. What if he came out and tore me apart, because he didn't know his own strength? He could crush my bones and tear skin. He might even damage my internal organs.

Would Markathus be able to perform a c-section?

He said I would live, but there were too many factors involved to know for certain. Even if the pregnancy was successful, our child was a hybrid. He would have both human and Fiori traits. Nobody had ever raised a child like that. I didn't know what it would take. Their children were probably violent and cruel. They might even have a killer instinct. When coupled with intense human emotions, it would be impossible for him to be a stable, healthy human, one that could live a balanced life without having to cope with mental illness.

In order to raise him, I would have to understand him, and carefully control his environment. I would need to ensure that outside factors didn't interfere with the values I needed to instill in him. If I didn't even know what planet I was going to raise him on, there was no way I could possibly do that.

Markathus walked in while I was laying with my belly exposed staring down at it. He was holding two hand cannons.

“Did Madge give you those?” She called him back a little after we finished with the sensor.

“Yeah.” He seemed nervous.

“What's wrong?”

He laid down and held me close. “What are Fiori children like?” I asked when he relaxed.

“They're boisterous, energetic and mischievous, much like you'd expect monkeys to be. Human children are vulgar, but not like Fiori children. Fiori children become obsessed with everything dirty and disgusting. They get into more trouble than human children. Mothers rarely let them out of their sight, and they're constantly beating them.”

“It's going to be difficult raising him.”

“If we survive. We're going to be running for a long time. We might not be able to get away, and you're going to be in a fragile state soon. I've seen how hard it is for pregnant humans to get around. I want to find someplace we can hide as soon as we get to the planet.”

“They'll see us. They'll know, Markathus.
