[ Ghost - Age: One Minute]

Screaming filled the medical room as two people tried to calm the woman in labor. If a bystander were to look upon the scene they'd see a loving sight. New life being made, easily guessed by the father and doctor supporting the mother through the pain of labor. However not everything is always as it seems. 

Little do people know, this is one of the most tragic days for the new family. The mother wailed and grabbed her husbands hand painfully tight. Giving birth on the Ark is seen as something amazing, since each family can only have one kid. Kids are precious, people to be protected until they can finally reach the ground. 

The growing family, the Balors, are about to become parents. Although there is one big problem, they're having twins which violates one of the biggest Ark laws of one child per family. The parents have already decided that they'll keep the first born and, sadly, not the second. 

The first baby came out and immediately started scanning the room, the first things the doctor noticed was the bright red hair on top of her hair. The second, being her mismatched eyes. One was a deep brown and the other a bright blue, both eyes completely contrasting each other in every way. The baby, that the doctor was holding babbled a little and started reaching towards her and trying to grab her.

The doctor quickly handed the baby over to his assistant before delivering the other baby, a boy. The boy had a darker ginger color than their firstborn but both of his eyes were a dark brown.  This baby cried and wailed the second it was brought into the world. The older of the two stared at the boy with her mismatched eyes before looking to the right and squirming in the assistants arms. 

Something shiny attracted the firstborn's attention as she reached over to grab it. Barely reaching she tried to grab it and ended up making a small slice in her chubby hands. The baby stared at it before letting out a small cry that started growing in volume. This attracted all the adults' attention as they looked at the baby.

The doctor turned away from the parents and went to inspect the cut before furrowing her brows. "Do you see this?"

The assistant watched as the doctor gently pressed on the small cut, prompting more blood to flow out of the wound. The blood coming out slightly thicker than normal and pure black in color.

"Oh my god. Her blood is actually black."
