"She? She's alive?" she asked. Tai nodded, he looked away from her to the door. "Tai I want to see her." She told him. "I don't know if your allowed to leave your hospital bed, but I did see her….. she's small, so innocent." Tai held his head in his hands, now he was crying cause this whole experience was too much for him.
"Why are you crying?…….. Is something wrong?" Sora asked him. Her face showed her emotion scared and afraid. Tai shrugged. "Tai I never seen you like this." Sora replied to him softly. She watched him a moment "I….don't …… know." He replied in-between sobs.
Sora bit her lip to stop herself from crying. "Taichi…please…" she replied. Tai looked up to her. "It's my own fault that everything happened Sora." He stammered upon his own words. Sora hushed him. "No…don't do that Tai. don't you blame yourself." She replied strongly.

"I want to see my baby Mom." She replied to her. Tai got up. "Sora, I'm going to your doctor okay, I'll be back." He replied and disappeared from the room.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Outside the hospital room Matt, Mimi, Kari and TK were there for almost an hour until they saw Tai come out of Sora room. "Tai what happened." She replied.
"She fell off the steps at the house they had to do an c-section to take the baby out." He replied. They all gasped. "Is it all right?" Mimi questioned. Tai smiled.
"Yeah it's a girl. But I'll talk to you guys later duty calls." He replied heading toward the nurses station. "I got a niece." Kari replied. She hugged TK and kissed him.
"Can I ask what was that for?" he asked her quite curious. "Nothing really." She replied. He smiled the two forgot about all the bad things that had happened.
"Kari, come let go out on the terrace I got something I want to give you." He replied leading the way to the small balcony outside.
Mimi watched them leave and smiled she turned to Matt. Who was in deep thought by the look of it. "Matt? Are you okay?" she asked. Matt looked up to her.
"Yeah, I'm fine." He replied lying to her. He was sorry but he couldn't tell her what he was feeling cause he didn't know himself. 'how come I'm not crying over what I just did.' He thought. 'I'm a heartless jerk. Look at the way Tai reacted. He cry's like a baby, over Sora. And I can't cry cause I nearly killed a person.' He thought.
He glared at the ground, Mimi forced him to look at him. "Matt! Tell me I know there something wrong and I know it's about the shooting." She replied. She started to lead him some where.
"What are you doing?" he asked. "We have to see Brittany and I know you are feeling guilty about it." She replied. Matt stopped her. "Who said anything about that!" he replied harshly. "No one had to Matt, it was obviously your still torn about it, and you never let you emotions out, you never cried once yet. Over this." Mimi replied to him. Matt glared angry, then back down knowing fully that what Mimi said was true.
"Your right. I am torn cause I'm the one who pulled the trigger in the first place. It's my f**king fault! All right I admit it." He yelled.
The commotion started to cause trouble Mimi lead him outside to another terrace. "You can't put words into my mouth Matt! How dare you." She replied angry.
"How dare I? You were suggesting that all the long. Were you? You secretly think I'm some psychotic maniac that needs to be put into a asylum." He said.
Mimi frowned she shook her head. "And were did you come up with that just now?" she asked angry and annoyed at him for even trying to analyze what she was thinking about him.
"I don't need this right now." He replied and walked out of the door.
"Matt!" she called back to him but he just took off. Mimi sighed and went to take a seat in the waiting room.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
TK looked away and blushed. "TK, what is it you want to give me?" she asked him. "Um, well. Matt helped me but I thought of the inscription." He replied, he dug into his bad dug out the box that was wrapped up hand to her.
His hands were shaking Kari giggled. "TK why are you so nervous.?" She asked. He shook his head. "NO! I'm not." He replied suddenly. "just opened it, please Kari." He replied slowly and softly.

"He's going to bring the baby to you. She's well enough. A nurse is going to come with the baby in the incubator." Tai told her.
Sora had tears coming down her cheeks. Tai came to her, she put her arms around his neck hugging him close.
"Tai you're the most incredible man I've ever met." She replied, Tai gently stroked her hair. "I do it cause I love you." He replied.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Matt sat down on one of the benches outside the hospital. He sighed holding his head up in his hands, depressed he looked down at his shoes.
Mimi didn't feel right letting him leave like that. She went to search for him. "Matt?" she called softly careful not to yell, cause this was a hospital and it was supposed to be quite in here. She stopped.
"Where could he have gone?" she asked herself. A woman went by her, "Oh, excuse me did you see a teen he's about 5'10, has blonde hair it's kind of wacky, and he has blue eyes." She said to her.
The woman thought for a while "Um, I think I saw some guy like that outside on sitting on the bench. But It was dark so I could of mistaken him for some one else." She replied and walked past Mimi. Mimi took the elevator down to the first floor.

She looked at Tai and motioned him to touch her hand. Tai was shaking when he touched her small delicate hand he couldn't believe they made this together the realization hit him hard.
"Have you two thought of a name?" the nurse asked. Tai and Sora shook there heads, then look at each other. "What do you think Tai?" Sora asked. "I don't know. What did you have in mind?" he asked her back.
"How about. Faith?" She replied Tai looked at her confused. "Faith? It sound too……" Sora cut him off.
"Corny?" she asked. Tai nodded. "How about Gabby or Gabriella?" Her mother asked them, they both made a face.
"No, mother, I don't like that name." Sora replied. "Hold on I know, how about Saria?" Tai said.
Sora looked at him with a smile. "I like it. I mean it's different but it's good." She replied.
"Then her name is Saria?" the nurse asked. The two parents nodded. The nurse then wheel the baby back to the nursery.
"That's a nice name, you two. But I still think the Gabby would have been nice." Sora mother replied. They laughed.
