[Lt. Paawin Riyo - Front Ear - Sickbay]The scans resumed as soon as Brooke was settled on the biobed, and Riyo glanced over at Greg. "You can go ahead and hold her hand. It helps if you squeeze back." Then his attention turned to the monitors, his scowl deepening at the readings. It was unusual for a fetus to turn into the wrong position after labor started, but it wasn't unheard of. Had they not been in a fully equipped Sickbay, the situation would be dire and require emergency surgery. Thankfully they wouldn't need to resort to those measures now, but time was still of the essence. "The baby is breech. Prepare for fetal transport."The nurse rolled over the smaller nicu biobed and swiftly finished preparing it to receive the transport. Riyo moved to the console on Brooke's side across from from Greg and began to program the transporter. Once everything was ready, he exchanged glances with the nurse, who nodded. "Three... Two... One... Initiating tansport."The sound of the fetal transporter was different than those used most commonly, but it was similar enough to not sound like something was wrong. Within fractions of a second the baby had dematerialized in the womb, umbellical cord being severed and cauterized in the process, and then rematerialized in the nicu bed with a confused cry. "Vitals are stable. No abnormalities." The nurse reported as she began to gently wipe the baby clean. Riyo took a moment longer to monitor Brooke's scans to make sure the transport hadn't caused any complications for her. Once everything was verified, he stepped back, giving the nurse room to carry the now-bundled baby over to the new parents. "Congratulations. You have a healthy daughter."

[ Brooke - Primary Sickbay] " That's true, it wouldn't be" Brooke agreed, thinking that Greg wasn't wrong with his comment, especially with the way he or she had kept them waiting and how things had gone so far. She should of known nothing was going to be straightforward and as she settled back on the bio bed, she looked to her husband as he began to do some Lamaze breathing. It was definitely appreciated, before everything changed. Holding onto his hand, Brooke tried to not be terrified as Riyo announced that the baby was now breech and to prepare for a fetal transport. A million thoughts seemed to burst into her mind, wondering if her going for a walk had caused this and whether the baby was going to be okay. So many emotions and each passing second felt like agony until she heard the sound of the transporter. Part of her didn't want to look, scared that something else had gone wrong until she heard that wonderful cry. Breathing a little more easier when the nurse confirmed that the baby's vital signs were stable. It was over and their baby was finally here with them and as Riyo congratulated them and informed them that they had a daughter. Brooke felt no shame in letting the happy and relieved tears fall as she saw their child. " Thank you Riyo for everything" she said, then looked to Greg once more. " I think Daddy should have the first hold".

[Gregory Ellis - Sickbay]Greg nodded mutely when the Doctor told him it helped to squeeze back. And so, while he did the ridiculous breathing that frankly was making him lightheaded, he gripped his wife's hand tightly and met her level of pressure. He steadfastly kept his eyes on her, knowing that there were other things going on around them but not wanting to give her any reason to fear any expression on his face. Then, the cry. His eyes shot over toward the tiny bed and watched in stunned silence as the nurse began cleaning the tiny creature that had just materialised out of thin air. Congratulations. You have a healthy daughter."A daughter..." He murmured, eyes wide and face still pale. When Brooke said that he should hold her first, he almost refused on the spot. He gulped, looking at this miraculous, tiny thing that had been inside his wife for just over nine months; growing and developing along with his most private and precious hopes and dreams. He would let her fall. He would squeeze too hard. He would... And then she was in his arms and all of those thoughts melted away. He looked down at the scrunched up, red face of their baby girl and he knew that he could never do anything to harm her. His dark eyes filled with tears and suddenly he felt completely overcome. He felt filled with a warmth and a light the likes of which he'd never experienced before. "Hello," he hoarsely greeted his daughter for the first time. A tear dropped from his cheek as he moved closer to Brooke, ready to transfer the bundle over to her waiting mother.

[Lt. Paawin Riyo - Front Ear - Sickbay]Riyo took a step back as the nurse brought the baby girl over to give the family some space. He couldn't help but smile as he watched the emotions play out across Greg's face, knowing it would only be a few months before he was holding his own newborn babies. The excitement he always felt at the thought began to swell within him, but he pushed it back for now. This was their time. "Congratulations," he said quietly. "I'd like to keep you both here for a little while just to be on the safe side, but as long as you both remain stable you'll be able to go home soon." It wasn't like they lived far away, so if anything came up after they took their daughter home he'd still be able to respond quickly.

[ Brooke - Primary Sickbay] The mix of adrenaline and residual pain relief was definitely holding any potential exhaustion at bay as Brooke gazed upon her husband and child. Happy tears continued to spill down her cheeks as she watched Greg holding their daughter, still not quite believing that she was actually here. But she was and Brooke's heart swelled with unconditional love for their baby girl and for her husband. She might be a blubbering mess right now but considering their daughter's dramatic and speedy arrival and all of the emotions associated with it. Brooke didn't care as Greg greeted the baby and she saw his own tear fall. " She's perfect" she uttered quietly when Greg moved closer and transferred their precious bundle into her waiting arms. All of the pain and discomfort were instantly forgotten as she looked at Greg then at their daughter. " Hello Cameron Felicity" she said softly, before Riyo spoke quietly to them. Tearing her gaze away from baby Cameron briefly, Brooke smiled as she answered the Doctor. " Thank you, that sounds very reasonable to me".For the moment Brooke had no inclination about moving and was perfectly content to stay in this new bubble until their eager visitors arrived.

[Gregory Ellis - Sickbay]He was barely able to tear his eyes away from his tiny baby girl. He did manage it for a handful of short moments, in order to fully take in what the Doctor was saying. Greg nodded, understanding. All things considered, this had gone so well, but he was very comfortable with Dr. Paawin keeping Brooke and baby here until he was satisfied that everyone was okay. They'd be back home in no time. He returned his attention to tiny Cameron Felicity, his chest filled with emotion. It wasn't long after that their curious, excited visitors began to arrive. [Felicity Ellis - En Route to Sickbay]Felicity was rapidly typing out message after message into their little group. Being that Greg's wife was in labour, it was understandable that he wasn't in the best position to answer them all, but that only seemed to increase the frequency of her queries. She tapped furiously on her PADD as she marched, head down, shoulders squared and gut churning, to Primary Sickbay. Finally, she'd arrived. She would ask everything herself. She stepped into Sickbay proper, glancing around to locate someone familiar. Spying a nurse, she gave a small wave. "Hi. Ellis family?"

[Lt. Paawin Riyo - Front Ear - Sickbay]As both of the new parents agreed to the observation, Riyo turned to the consoles beside the biobed and set the scanners for both Brooke and Cameron. It didn't seem likely the baby would be returned to the smaller bed for awhile. There was a quiet beep from his coat pocket, and he pulled out the message PADD to see one of the orderlies informed him there was a visitor waiting. "It seems your family is just as eager to meet Cameron as she was to meet you." Opening the door to the main room, he immediately saw Felicity and waved her over. "Come on in, Commander. Good timing." It was usually best for everyone involved for the introductions to happen before the baby fell asleep. This way, after the visitors had left mother and child would be able to sleep undisturbed for as long as they needed to.

[ Lucas Reynolds - En route to Sickbay] To say that Lucas was nervous was a complete understatement as the Supply Ship Captain left his quarters, quickly typing a response to the group chat that Greg had created specifically to keep them updated about Brooke. In some ways this kept him sane as he naturally worried about his daughter, whilst really looking forward to being a Grandpa. He may of adopted Brooke after finding her abandoned on that ruined and desolate colony but that hadn't stopped him from treating her any differently. She had found her soulmate in Greg Ellis and Lucas couldn't think of anyone one more perfect for his daughter and as for Felicity, well he cared for her just as equally. Reply sent and clutching the PADD tightly, Lucas walked with purpose and with a very happy and proud smile on his face as he made his way to Primary Sickbay. Although it wouldn't be good for him to cause himself an injury in his excitement and haste in getting there. Managing to contain his emotions long enough to make it without incident and waved to Felicity and Riyo as he entered and made his way over. ********* [ Brooke Ellis - Primary Sickbay] Completely fixated on their daughter, Brooke looked towards her husband as they soaked up this moment. Her body slowly adjusting to the fact that she had given birth and the constant rush of love that she felt for both Greg and tiny perfect Cameron. When Riyo then mentioned their family, Brooke smiled knowing how excited they were likely to be and looked forward to introducing Cameron Felicity to them. " I can't wait for them to meet her" she said as Riyo opened the door to call them in. " She's perfect" she added, more to Greg this time and prepared to welcome their visitors.

[Felicity Ellis & Gregory Ellis - Sickbay]When Lucas seemed to be right behind her, Felicity put away her PADD, realising that she didn't have to expedite anything for him at all, and that he'd already docked at the station. Obviously as excited as the rest of them for the grand event, she grinned and then gestured toward him, turning to address Paawin. "This is Lucas," she explained, once the doctor had invited her inside. "Brooke's dad."She did not hang around any longer. With a spring in her step and very obvious enthusiasm in her expression, she followed inside. A little squeal burst out of her when she saw the family unit, all together and looking so strangely peaceful in the room. "Hi!" She greeted, a little breathless. She moved closer to have a look at the baby. After staring at the tiny thing for a few moments, she turned to envelope her brother in a hug. "Say hi to your niece," Greg rumbled as he returned the hug, smile evident in his voice. "Her name is Cameron." [Admiral Antoinette Ellis - Grand Suite, Twilight Hotel & Casino]There had been many reasons for Admiral Antoinette Ellis' trip to the Frontier. Primarily, and for appearances, she'd come here to ensure that the Caldonia 5 got their long overdue debrief. But there was also another event she had an interest in; the birth of her grandchild. Despite many an overture, her children had stopped responding. The last time she had spoken to Gregory he had tartly reminded her that he was no longer an officer, and therefore was under no obligation to entertain her in any way. Felicity was outright ignoring her, even in a professional capacity. But it was her right to meet her grandchild. This was her kin, her blood, and even if Gregory's wife was not of standard in her opinion, this child was still a part of her and a part of the Ellis legacy. Her commbadge chirped. =/\= "Admiral, I have received notice that the birth will be imminent." =/\= Antoinette Ellis stood immediately. =/\= "Hold all communications." =/\= It was time to pay her son a visit.

[Lt. Paawin Riyo - Front Ear - Sickbay]Riyo returned Lucas' wave and grinned when Commander Ellis introduced them. "It's good to see you again, Lucas." He didn't know the man well, but had seen him a handful of times in his work supplying the Beta. Hanging back as the visitors went to greet their newest family member, he leaned against the bulkhead beside the door of the private room, occasionally glancing between the monitors to make sure that the excitement wasn't causing mother or daughter any undo stress.

[ Lucas Reynolds - Primary Sickbay] Lucas smiled with his usual wolfish smile as Felicity introduced him to Riyo, before the Doctor spoke to him in response. " It's good to see you too" he replied, clearly excited to be here as he then followed behind Felicity. For a moment Lucas stood just inside the door, taking in the scene laid out before him. His smile widening upon seeing Felicity react to his new granddaughter, his son in law and not forgetting Brooke herself holding that precious bundle. The hug between siblings was equally heartwarming as Greg then revealed the baby's name. " I love it" he declared as he moved further into the room. " Congratulations you two and thank you for making me a Grandpa".It was true and sure he might of said it before, but it didn't seem real until he was standing there gazing at the baby and sharing in the happiness. *************** [ Brooke Ellis - Primary Sickbay] Naturally Brooke was still feeling very emotional and seeing both Felicity and her Dad threatened to send her off again. Their reaction's so far were just more than she could have ever imagined and it reaffirmed how she loved being a part of this family. She couldn't ask for a better Dad, Husband or Sister in Law and she loved them all dearly. Smiling despite the promise of further happy tears as Greg shared the baby's name before her Dad commented on it and thanked them for making him a Grandpa. " Thanks Dad and no thanks is needed but that's not all, we also decided to give her a middle name. She'll be known as Cameron Felicity Ellis".

[Felicity Ellis & Gregory Ellis - Sickbay]When Felicity heard what was to be her little niece's full name, she was almost lost. "Oh..." She murmured, hand moving up to her chest as the lump already forming in her throat doubled in size. A couple of tears tracked down her cheeks as she looked at her brother and his wife, and smiled. "Poor kid," she choked out, joking in the face of the overwhelming emotion. Greg laughed, expression filled with good humour. He, too, was still very much overwhelmed, and having Felicity and Lucas there was really hammering home the fact that their family had grown. It was hard to believe it was real, sometimes. "Well, little Cameron, you will certainly have many people in your life keen to love and help you." She wiped a tear away, finally getting a hold on her emotions enough to act like a normal person. "We're honoured to meet you. And now," she glanced over at Dr. Paawin, "Perhaps we should reconvene at a later time to celebrate, when everyone is a little more rested?"As excited as she had been to check on Greg and Brooke and meet their baby, there was a fine line between a happy visit and intruding. Speaking of intruding... [Admiral Antoinette Ellis - Sickbay]Admiral Antoinette Ellis swept into Sickbay, her sensible heels making a loud, insistent thunk with each step. "I would see Gregory Ellis, immediately, please," she announced to the room and staff at large. "Point me to his family's room."

[Lt. Paawin Riyo - Front Ear - Sickbay]"He'll be right with you, ma'am," the orderly replied, quickly sending Dr. Paawin a message about the newest visitor. The private rooms were small, and it was policy not to allow more than two visitors at a time without approval from the attending physician. Riyo simply watched with a smile as the family became acquainted with little Cameron. According to the monitors, both of his patients were healthy and stable, but all the same he was relieved when the visitors seemed to understand the need for rest without him having to say anything. Feeling his message pad vibrate, he glanced down at the note one his colleagues sent. "Greg, you've got an impatient Admiral asking to see you."

[ Lucas Reynolds - Primary Sickbay] Upon learning the full name of his granddaughter, Lucas simply couldn't stop smiling anymore than he had done since stepping into his daughter's private room. To the old Captain it was a perfect addition to the name that they had already chosen and even Lucas saw the meaning behind it all. Chuckling alongside Greg as Felicity made a joking comment, before she spoke with meaningful words. She was right little Cameron would be well loved and cared for. "Here here, she will be indeed and I promise to try and not spoil her rotten, no guarantees though" he said, as Felicity then looked towards Dr Paawin and suggested that they could reconvene later. Lucas thought it was a great idea and it would also give them a chance to decorate Greg and Brooke's quarters before they came home. He was about to agree when Riyo then informed them about another visitor. " I think we know who that is".********* [ Brooke Ellis - Primary Sickbay] Brooke would be lying if she wasn't really emotional right now as Felicity reacted to the baby's full name. It had been a no brainer really when it came to picking names for their child and smiled happily as both Felicity and then her Dad spoke. " She will and Dad, I wouldn't expect anything else" Brooke said, knowing exactly what Lucas was like. As much as she loved having them here, she understood the suggestion that was made and was already looking forward to going home. However it seemed that their happy moment was in danger of being spoiled with the arrival of an unexpected visitor. Agreeing with her Dad as she looked to Greg, with some fear about her Mother In Law being in close proximity. " What do we do?".

[Felicity Ellis & Gregory Ellis - Private Room, Sickbay]Greg was shook from this happy moment with his wife and closest family, by something neither he, but especially not Brooke, should be having to deal with. Antoinette Ellis had been told in no uncertain terms that she would not be welcome. In fact, it had been the only sentence he'd spoken to his mother in a year. Yet, here she was. Nobody should be surprised, and yet Greg was approaching losing his shit. "She's not to come near us, or the baby."His voice cracked across the room like an angry thunder bolt. His face matched it. The normally well-balanced, cheery bloke was angry. "It's okay," Felicity reassured them, her shoulders stiff but hiding all traces of her own anger from her voice and expression, "I'll deal with this."She turned and with a nod of her head, gestured for Dr. Paawin to follow her. Felicity might not be enough to keep the admiral at bay, but this doctor should be. [Admiral Antoinette Ellis - Sickbay]Admiral Ellis visibly bristled at being told to wait. She stood in the exact centre spot of the Sickbay and waited with her arms crossed. If she was not received properly, then she'd just try every single door in every single medical suite. Then her daughter appeared, saving the other patients from her potential intrusion. She would be joined by this Dr. Paawin, the one O'Connell had mentioned. Her children had disappointed her in many ways, but perhaps the worst was the lack of interest they seemed to have in maintaining proper standards in one's staff and crew. "At last!" She said, uncrossing her arms and opening them wider, brows arched in impatient question. "Well? How is my grandchild?"
