Elysia in Another World

Chapter 12 - Elysia Athas P1

Several months later, on October 2nd, Kye gave birth. Hannah attended her during labor. She had twin redheaded girls that they named Kaylie and Layla. The girls were given Adele's surname. Kye wanted to name one of them after her mother.

"You're giving her my name?" Layla asked, surprised. Hannah giggled.

Kye nodded and wrote Layla on the documents. "Kaylie Maya, born to Kye Akari, Alethea Atlantis, Adele Maya, and Michelle Maya. And Layla Maya, born... the same I'm not verbally repeating our names. Ugh, I hate paperwork."

"You lot go ahead. The party is waiting. I'll wrap up the papers for you." Layla waved a hand and healed Kye, cleaned the babies, and properly clothed all three of them.

"Oh, thanks." Kye stopped for a moment. "Whoa. You just gave me déjà vu."

"Huh?"

"You were really fast with me. Like... I popped out, you healed up, dressed up, and we were out there before I was even ten minutes old."

"You re-" Layla shook her head and didn't finish that sentence. "Right. You're you. That was an eventful day... Anyway, you lot get going."

"Ahem," Hannah cleared her throat. She was still in scrubs.

"Oh, right. Okay." Layla magically cleaned and changed Hannah as well.

Kye stood up, a baby in each arm, and before she could move an inch, she noticed something strange about them. The two girls looked at each other, then at Adele, and held their hands out. "Huh?"

"Uh..." Adele stepped closer and slowly reached for them, each seeming more eager as she inched in.

""Ga!""

"How cute!" Hannah said excitedly.

Michelle raised an eyebrow. "Okay, this isn't suspicious at all..." She peered at their souls, but did not recognize them. "Wait, what? They're immortal! They're..." She glanced at Kye.

Kye smiled. "Recognize their colors? Silvery white and slightly translucent? Alfia already told me who they are back when I found out. I thought we talked about it."

"Look..." Michelle sighed. "With all that's happened, it's easy to lose track."

"They're Kyra and Liya"

"Hmm..." Alethea held out a hand and wrapped the girls with her pink soul aether. Her eyes widened. "Can confirm."

Michelle was surprised, but was brought back to reality by a kick inside her belly. "Oww..." She was also pregnant, due in another couple of months, thanks to the night she spent with Kye and Alethea after the date on Elea. Alethea didn't consistently take her hormone medication while Rei was missing because of her mental instability, and there was always a chance that even with it she could still impregnant someone. Michelle found out the hard way. "Ugh. I'm glad it's only one this time."

Hannah shook her head. "You're only twenty-two and you're already saying this time. I guess I'm not really one to talk, though, but lifespans were still around sixty to a hundred years back then!"

They all shared a laugh before Layla shooed everyone out of the room and urged them toward the party.

This is such a strange tradition. Who has a birth party? A birthday party is one thing... but a party right after birth? And the fact that it can be so accurately predicted is... honestly kinda great. Though honestly, when it was me getting shown off twenty years ago, I had fun. Well, until the kidnapping. I hate jars now. If I see a jar here, I am breaking it right away. I don't give a shit who sent it. You're gonna give my child a jar knowing I was kidnapped with one when I was born? HA. Nope! Not happening.
