“Ohhh, bit of movement. I think it may be time. Been shaking for a couple days now.”

“He’s a little slow. Mari had come crashing out a week early.”

“That’s Mari for you though.” Toshiya stood up, cradling the egg which had been nestled in his lap. He set it down into a sunken hearth of hot coals. The egg trembled, rocking back and forth. Little clicks sounded from inside.

“Come on, baby bird, break through,” Hiroko encouraged, taking a seat next to her partner. 

The shell, a gradient of black to red with silver spots and feathered markings, cracked. The line extended and bits of the shell shattered off, kicked out by little clawed feet. A minute of struggle, the small creature inside turned around, fingers stained black curling over the edge of broken shell as he peeked out. 

Big brown eyes blinked up at Hiroko and Toshiya. Wide as they took in their first view. 

Laughing, Hiroko stood and lifted him out, wrapping him in a handspun towel. She dried him with quick motions. It fluffed his puffy black feathers which sprouted from all over, cresting over his ears. Tiny wings stretched and flapped slowly from his back, and his arms reached up toward his parents as he cooed happily.

Hiroko and Toshiya smiled down at their baby siren, the mother bopping him on the nose with her fingertip. “Welcome to the world, Yuuri.”
