Sam was there with Trish. She wasn't really looking at her anymore, the amount of pain she was feeling made
her stomach turn upside down. A doctor told her she'd be better off just sitting in the back of the room if
she couldn't handle herself. As she waited, each passing second seemed like an eternity. She was nervous,
trying to think of how reality must have been changed because of Trish giving herself the ability to give
birth to the quadruplets. She remembered what she said about the DNA copying parasites, how they copied her
exact DNA and became clones of her but couldn't be born. Now however, she can give birth so that leaves two
possibilities, that she had sex, which was unlikely, the parasite was changed so that instead of just copying
her DNA, it also also used something... else to give her "Mock" Children, which was the best name she could
give them. She couldn't really understand very well how exactly babies happened, because she never really paid
attention in Sex ED, all she really knew was the basic stuff, that the sperm fertilize the egg, and become a
Zy... something, something else about chromosomes and then baby. But it wasn't really worth it to think about
it at this moment, since Trish was already giving birth. Trish began yelling terribly, shouting profanities
loud enough to probably make you go deaf if you were right next to her. She was undergoing the delivery
process. Sam had almost fainted when she opened her eyes to look at her friend. She shut them and put her head
down, covering her skunk ears. Then she heard a man yell out.
"It's a Girl!"
"Well, apparently, they did copy her DNA, I guess there's no point in doing anything now, though" she thought.
Eventually, another yell came out. It was the same thing, a girl. Sam by this point was sure that the kits
were just lifeless clones now, and waited for the third yell from the doctor. However, this third yell was
different.
"It's a Boy!"
She couldn't believe her ears. If this kit was a boy, then that meant that the parasite was either not real or
was changed because of the reality change. There was another kit left, right now to Sam however, she couldn't
care less about the gender anymore. This was her doing, and now she had to help her sister with this
situation. She thought about her own parents for a moment though. She wondered if she could somehow be able to
see them again. She then wondered how much different their lives were now that she hadn't been their child.
Was it better or worse than before? Did Trish's parents love Sam as much as Sam's parents did? Her mind was
filled with pain and confusion as she couldn't make a choice now. Help her friend who was surely going to
suffer without her taking care of four children without a husband all because of a prank she pulled, or go
back to her parents for her own selfish desire? Which one made her truly happy? The final yell came out.
Another boy. They were four girls and two boys in one apartment.
Several minutes passed and finally there was silence. A sweet golden silence. Sam opened her eyes at last
after thinking so hard. She looked forward. There lay her Skunk girl sister lying down with breastfeeding her
kits. It was an odd sight that left a weird taste in her mouth. It was the result of the beautiful miracle of
life, but the skunk girl part just seemed odd to her. Perhaps she just wasn't used to it, living as a human
her whole life, but, she did find it beautiful either way, after all, life is life, no matter what species,
and her sister was happy, which made her happy.
