"Raquel, I need to ask you something before you guys start the seance."

"Sure, M."

"Is it possible to go into labor four weeks before your due date?" I whispered and clasped a hand over her mouth before she had the chance to scream. "Hypothetical and I don't need to worry the dad, aunts and uncle."

"Yes, it's possible if you've been under some stress or maybe she just wanted to make an early appearance." Raquel shrugged and pulled me aside. "Your water broke?"

"No, but the pain is becoming stronger and more frequent and I swore something that resembled a fetus came out of my body about half an hour ago."

"Girl, that was your mucus plug... you're officially in labor." She said and I froze. "Your belly dropped a few days ago, right?"

"Last week."

"Then it was only a matter of time... you're gonna be a mom in a few hours or a few days, Mae."

"But it's so early!" I exclaimed and she shushed me. "Raquel... it's so early. I thought that-"

"It happens and it's normal... take deep breaths and don't alarm anyone yet. Let's get through the seance and Zee can cast a spell to check if you're actually in labor... You're 36 weeks pregnant, Mae. You're entering the gray zone of possibilities of labor."

"But Viola-"

"Is gonna be fine as long as she stays in there until this is over. I'll be keeping an eye on you so stand close to me... Everything's gonna be okay if you calm down. If you start freaking out now , it'll be worse and Dick's gonna worry."

"Hey, we're ready." Zatanna called out. "What's wrong with-"

"She may or may not have gone into labor because she's having contractions and lost the mucus plug. We're waiting for her water to break." Raquel exclaimed and Zatanna widened her eyes.

"Maeve, you should head inside and rest. We'll-"

"No. I'm getting my brothers back. Viola's just gonna have to start learning patience before she even exits the womb." I said, walking away. "You hear me, you little acrobat? You better stay inside where it's safe and don't give me any severe contractions until all of this is over... after that, you can do whatever the hell you want and I won't get mad if you tear me coming out."

"Okay... Hold your places. I will summon Klarion to appear inside a Mystic Circle that the five of us will anchor. In exchange for his freedom, we'll get him to access the Phantom Zone, since he's clearly done it before." Zatanna explained, giving me a small nod and I stood between her and Raquel. "Since I'm the one summoning him, Maeve is gonna be my anchor. Don't worry, Boy Wonder, her suit is charmed so nothing happens to her or Viola."

"And you believe he will cooperate?" Kaldur wondered.

It's a risk, but is only way to exit the circle is to exit here. And Klarion won't dare enter the Tower... Plus, we have Batman and company outside with the tank he calls a car and several magical weapons that I gave the feral children should he manage to escape."
