Claudia and Steve stood side by side as they walked down every isle, avoiding lightening strikes and listening to Myka and Artie who were both guiding them to the trespasser.
"Who would break into the warehouse now? Has anybody pissed off anybody else lately?" Claudia asked.
Steve shook his head "I don't think so."
Claudia huffed "This is so annoying." She muttered.
"…why do people have to break in? I mean, seriously!" she went on.
Steve smiled "Don't worry, Claude, we'll get them…whoever they are." He said.
"Yeah…and then I can beat them up." Claudia remarked.
Steve smirked to himself "Whatever makes you feel better." He muttered.
"Okay, he's two isles over." Claudia heard Myka said.
Claudia turned to Steve, tilting her head to the right as to prepare and turn the corner and quietly walk over two isles.
Steve followed closely behind Claudia as they turned the corner right when somebody was casually walking out of the isle.
"HEY!" Claudia yelled before firing her Tesla, right about the same time as a bolt of lightening hit the shelf causing an explosion to ensue.
A shelf came toppling over starting a domino affect as the shelves one by one fell down, Claudia winced "…ah, dang!" she hissed.
Steve looked over to see the man on the floor, covered in artifacts good and bad; the two agents rushed over to the man whose face was beyond familiar.
"Holy shit." Steve said, taking Claudia aback since she had never heard Steve curse before; she then looked down at the assailant: Paracelsus.
"Yes, children, it's me." Paracelsus remarked with a smile.
Steve hummed "How'd you get out of the bronzer?" he asked.
"I don't know, I was hoping maybe you could answer that." He said.
Steve put his hands on his hips, his mind lingers as he thought about how Paracelsus could escape from the bronze chamber "Harper." He said sternly.
"She doesn't have that kind of authorization, let alone she's not tall enough to reach the controls." Claudia retorted.
"Who's Harper?" Paracelsus asked.
Claudia and Steve looked down at him, Claudia smiled brightly "Oh, just your worst nightmare." She said before pulling out her Farnsworth to call Myka.
"Hey, it's me."
"Did you find them?" Myka asked.
Claudia sighed "Paracelsus somehow got out of the bronze sector." She said.
She could hear Artie yelling in the background as he quickly approached the Farnsworth "What do you mean he got out?" he asked.
Claudia shrugged "I don't know, Artie."
She heard screaming from behind her, she turned around to find Paracelsus clutching his leg, Steve turned to Claudia "He's not going anywhere." He assured her.
Claudia nodded as she turned back to the Farnsworth "Well that's the bad news, good news is that he broke his leg so he's not going anywhere." She said with a soft chuckle.
Artie narrowed his eyes "Just get him back into the bronzer, please!" he remarked.
"You're not going to send help?" Claudia asked.
"You and Steve can handle it." Artie said before hanging up the other line.
Claudia huffed as she closed her Farnsworth and placed it in her back pocket before turning back to Steve "Alright, get him out of the wreckage, we're taking him back to the Bronze Sector." She announced.
Steve looked down at Paracelsus and smirked "I hope you have a high pain tolerance." He said as he pulled him out of the pile of artifacts.
It was easier than they thought putting Paracelsus back in the bronze sector, the last interaction they had with him wasn't the greatest experience ever.
Artie and the team had managed to take away Paracelsus' immortality before putting him back in the bronze sector for a second time, thinking that that was the end of it.
Steve and Claudia slowly walked their way back to the mess of the warehouse with Artie and Myka already there beginning to clean up the mess.
"Aw, guys." Claudia smiled.
Myka smirked as Artie huffed, staring at Claudia "I cannot believe you! This is worse than the time one of your Tesla Grenades rolled off the balcony!" he proclaimed.
"Hey! I am going to clean this up!" Claudia retorted.
Myka smiled "Artie, lighten up! There was bound to be collateral damage with a break-in, just let it go and lets all finish this!" she said, continuing to pick up the artifacts.
Artie backed away from the confrontation and went back to helping Myka as Claudia and Steve began to help clean up the mess.
"Hey don't cut yourself anything." Claudia said.
Steve smirked "Don't grab any strange artifacts…don't want to give Harper a sibling."
Myka cooed "Aww!" she proclaimed.
Claudia laughed "No! No, no, no! Not ready for number 2." She said.
"Number two? I'm still getting used to number 1." Steve remarked.
Myka laughed as she watched Claudia and Steve go back and forth with their argument before Steve and Claudia went silent.
Claudia swallowed hard "Maybe Harper is all we need." She said gently.
Steve smiled at his best friend "Yeah, maybe she is." He agreed.
Claudia sighed "You know what, I'm just gonna go for it!" she said, putting down the artifact in her hand and pulling Steve in for a passionate kiss.
Artie and Myka were in shock as they couldn't help but watch as Claudia passionately kissed her best friend.
Claudia pulled away from the kiss, giving both her and Steve a moment to catch her breathe before Steve stood awkwardly around his 'family'.
"…I'm still gay." Steve said.
Claudia took his shoulder "I know, but…you're my baby daddy; and sometimes I'm going to need some baby daddy sugar." She said with a chuckle.
"Ew." Myka said, catching Steve and Claudias' attention "I am SO telling Pete about this." She said with a chuckle.
Steve rolled his eyes with a smile as he went back to cleaning up with Warehouse with Claudia.
"Tell Pete what?" they heard down the isle, the four warehouse agents turned to see Pete and Harper walking towards them.
"WOAH—what happened here?" Pete asked.
"Claudia did it!" Steve said.
Pete turned to Claudia "Claudia, what did you do!?"
"Claudia and Steve made out!" Myka said, changing the conversation.
Pete gasped "What?! How did I miss that?"
"What's making out?" Harper asked.
The agents went silent for a moment until Pete cleared his throat "Um, well, sweetie, making out is kissing…but like a lot." He explained.
Harper nodded "…that sounds gross." She said.
"It was gross." Steve said.
The agents chuckled until Artie cleared the air "OK-OK…that's enough! We need to clean this up!" he said.
Claudia smiled as she hugged Harper "Alright Jelly Bean, daddy and I have to work but we'll see you back at the house, okay?" she said, giving her a peck on the cheek before going back to work.
Steve smiled at Harper, giving her a tight hug and a kiss on her cheek as well "See you later." He said.
Pete guided Harper away from the mess and out of their view, Claudia and Steve glanced at each other for a moment before Steve smirked "Yeah, she's all we need." He muttered.
"Ok, lets seriously get back to work." Claudia said, giving Steve a tight squeeze before going back to the mess.
Steve followed suit, beginning to help clean up the mess that was Warehouse 13.
And that ladies and gentlemen is the end of "Baby", I might write a sequel but I'm not sure yet. I hope you've enjoyed the journey of the Donovan-Jinks family.
XOXO
