Chapter 14

Mayor Meanswell, Bessie, Trixie, Pixel, Stingy, Ziggy, Amanda, and Robbie crowded into the waiting room. Sportacus had called the Mayor all excited. Now the group waited to hear the good news.

A nurse came out into the waiting room and asked for the Mayor and Bessie. The couple stepped forward and the nurse led them down the hall. They passed the nursery and entered the third room on the right.

Stephanie and Sportacus were sitting together with their new child. When they saw Uncle Milford and Bessie they smiled.

"Say hello to Joshua Þórir Scheving." Stephanie said all aglow.

"Oh your parents will be so thrilled." Bessie said giving a hug to the couple. Stephanie had a look on her face. Her parents had been excited on Christmas when they came to visit.

"Don't worry they're catching the first train out tomorrow morning. I called them as soon as I heard." Uncle Milford assured his niece.

"Thank you, Uncle." She said. Then a nurse came in and said that it was time for both the mother and baby to get some rest. Joshua was taken to the nursery and Uncle Milford and Bessie were ushered back out of the room.

Sportacus sat in the chair and stroked Stephanie hair out of her face. She smiled and put her hand on his.

"I can't believe it. I'm a father." He said.

"Me neither. It's so exciting." She replied.

"I wish my parents were here to see it." Sportacus sighed.

"Well now, our son has your father's name as his middle name and we used the first name you wanted too." Stephanie said.

"Very true. You get some rest. I'll check on the baby." Sportacus smiled. Stephanie nodded and made herself comfortable.

The above-average hero made his way to the nursery. Outside he saw all of his friends standing there pointing at his son.

"Congratulations!" Robbie said giving Sportacus a firm hand shake.

"Thank you. I'm so glad that everybody is here." He replied. The group watched Joshua for a little while then they had to get back to LazyTown and get ready for the new resident's arrival.

A few days later, Stephanie and Joshua returned to LazyTown. Though he was a few weeks early the doctors found nothing wrong with him and decided he could come home. His mother and father had the spare room in the apartment all ready to go.

Stephanie's parents were so thrilled when they arrived a couple of days before and promised to stay as long as they could. They would be staying at Uncle Milford's but promised to visit everyday. There was still a lot that Stephanie and Sportacus would need help with.

Everyone marked their calendars. February 1, 2006 was the date that little Joshua Þórir Scheving came into the world. It would be a day that his parents would never forget.

Epilogue

Bruce Wayne sat at the computer trying to fell better about what had happened. He had only told Sportacus part of the truth. The last thing that Bruce wanted was for the news to ruin the happiness in LazyTown.

Ra's had been let go because they couldn't charge him with assault. However his attempt to use the Watchtower as a weapon had not gone unnoticed. Right now, the villain was hidden in a place where no one would find him.

So part of the note from the Justice League had been correct but it had left out the whole Watchtower incident. It was Bruce's hope that Ra's would stay where they had him but the man was very clever and he had many sources hiding everywhere. It was only a matter of time before he escaped and the Justice League would have to go after him. The only question that remained was when and if he escaped, would they be able to stop him before something bad happened?

The End?

Well that's all she wrote. I would like to thank everyone for their concerns over my Nana. (For those that don't know, she's been put in Hospice and we can only hope for her to not be in too much pain.) I really appreciate it. I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday. I promise to keep you posted as to when the next story will come out.
