Noah waited in the living room, hearing his wife scream in pain from their bedroom as she went through the pains of birth.

She had insisted that she would give birth here in the house but part of her didn't understand why.

He rubbed his hands together, anxious for several reasons.

Then the cry of a baby made him stop. Melissa, the nurse among the midwives that were in the bedroom, stepped out of the room,"It's a boy."

Noah went past her and into the room, the midwives left them alone, leaving the two of them and the baby.

"His name will be Mieczysław after your dad," Noah said,"But we'll call him Stiles after mine."

Noah then left the room to make several calls, leaving Claudia and the baby alone, or so everyone thought.

Claudia couldn't take her eyes off of him, he just looked so beautiful. She felt a breeze against her cheek, letting her know she wasn't alone.

"He didn't even want to hold him," Claudia whispered.

"He is, as you said, a monster," The spirit replied, then it finally took the form of Morrell, instead just shapeshifting into it instead of possessing it.

"You should be the one to name him, not Noah," Claudia told them.

"Mieczysław means Glorious sword," They replied,"And after your Father no less, one would think that you would wish for it."

"I won't let his name be given by that man," Claudia said in a harsh whisper,"It can be his name on his birth certificate, but it won't be his name. You are the one that helped conceive him, not Noah."

The Olmpian hesitated,"Very well," They said finally, resting a hand on the baby's head,"Ouranos...After my ancestor."

Claudia nodded,"Wasn't he a total douchebag though?"

The immortal chuckled,"Yes, he was. But he was also the embodiment of the sky, something mortals look up to everyday, seeing great beauty. The stars, the moon, the sun. Our son shall bear the name Ouranos so he may renew it, to bring its beauty back to light."

(A/N) It's pronounced Or-ann-oh-s

"Ouranos," Claudia said, smiling, her heart warmed when she heard the words our son,"What will he become?"

"A warrior," They answered,"He will have a natural talent in my domains. I will give him a power that will give him protection over any monster. But you must train him."

"Train him?"

"Teach him the domains of the other gods, forgery for Hephestus, the value of wisdom of Athena, the music of Apollo. The other gods must not know about this child, when the time comes for him to leave and go join other Demigods, they will test him to see what skills he has to determine who I am. I will reveal it myself when the time is right."

Claudia swallowed, nodding,"I will."

"I will watch over him from a distance, this town infested with werewolves will cover his scent from the monsters. I will send a satyr his way when the time is right."

Claudia nodded again, looking back down at the baby.

"May I...May I hold him," They asked, making Claudia's eyes widen slightly,"Of course," She said immediately,"Be careful of his head," She warned as the baby now rested in the arms of the Olympian.

Then something unexpected happened, the god smiled. Holding their child for the first time only minutes after his birth.

"Ouranos," They whispered to the sleeping baby.
