After the Tragedy
Part Two of Four

He tried not to be upset that she had done this without telling him. He knew it was her body and her choice but he would have liked to have been told he was going to be a father at some point other than when he was helping her up form the toilet where she’d been vomiting just recently. As he helped her to bed the whole story had tumbled out and now he was torn between being angry and being concerned. Diana and her mother didn’t know and even worse she’d let one of Kelex’s creations screw with her body to accelerate the pregnancy. “I’m going to call Diana and your mother,” He told her and could clearly see her about to object. “They need to know.” He said and she reluctantly laid back down without speaking.

The call to get them to come had been easy enough but once they heard the whole story all hell had broken loose. It was less than fifteen minutes before magical aid was summoned and soon enough Zatanna was weaving protective spells throughout Cassie’s apartment to keep any potential possessor away from the child and once that was done scientific aid was summoned to find out what exactly Angel K had done to her body. The worst part was he’d been shunted to the side and no one seemed to want to even tell him what was going on he could understand her mother and Diana ignoring him but he would have hoped Cassie would ask for him. He was just grateful that he could hear everything going on. “The test are preliminary but it appears the pregnancy isn’t in any danger despite happening at an accelerated rate though how this was possible is beyond me it would almost seem her body was always able to bear a child this fast.”

“Possibly because of her paternity,” her mother said and he heard Diana give a quick accent. “If Cassie chose to could she terminate the pregnancy safely?” He heard Cassie’ object but her mother just added. “I just want to know.”

“I would advise against it as long as the pregnancy is not threatening her life or health,” the doctor said sounding concerned. “We don’t understand how her body’s processes have been accelerated and if we upset the balance of things there could be consequences to her health.” He heard the doctor sigh, “Of course we will know more once we’ve had time to fully analyze these test results which I should get back to the lab to do.” He got the impression the doctor wanted to get out of there and he didn’t blame him.

He saw the Doctor give him a strange look as he left the apartment as if he had no idea who he was which just made him feel worse. He made his way up the stairs and into the room. He ignored the glare Diana shot him, he’d always got the impression she didn’t approve of his relationship with Cassie because of his origins. “Cassie, why didn’t you tell me?” He knew he shouldn’t ask this but he had to know.

“I wasn’t sure I was going to keep the baby, it was such a surprise getting pregnant,” Cassie sounded torn. “So I went to Tim asking him to help me confirm the pregnancy and find out if I could even abort if I decided to.” She looked sad then. “Then Angel K showed up and told me that yes I was pregnant and that Aeries was behind it all.” She looked away. “She gave me three days to make a decision and told me that if I wanted to keep our only chance to have a naturally born child she’d have to accelerate the pregnancy.” Cassie looked away then, “I was waiting for her when the tower was destroyed and our friends were killed she wouldn’t let me leave until I made my decision and I thought there had been enough death.” He glanced at Diana and saw the same understanding on her face. “I know we all need to talk about things.”

“Just rest Cassie there will be plenty of time to talk later,” he said quickly and saw Diana and Cassie’s mom do the same. He left the room then giving Diana a tug with his TK. He felt her following him and once they were far enough away Cassie wouldn’t over hear he turned back to her. “We need to find Angel K and find out why she manipulate Cassie into keeping the baby.”

“Are you sure she manipulated her?” Diana asked though from her tone he got the feeling she was just playing devil’s advocate. “It is possible that Cassie would have always chosen to bear this child.”

“If she’s anything like Kelex then she had to know that attack was coming and she arranged to get Cassie’s answers then.” He was furious over her not warning them of the attack and instead using the deaths of the Titans to get what she wanted. “She also put the idea in Cassie’s head that we could never have children again which has to be bull shit because if it could happen once it could happen again even if we needed help.” Diana nodded clearly thinking the same.

To be continued.
