Chad moved around the bed to hook her up to a heart monitor, wanting to track the baby's heart beat. Once that was taken care of, he helped Vera lift her shirt up enough so that he could begin a sonogram, though it was much more detailed than the one at the hospital. She could actually see her daughter in there with her cute little cheeks and pouty lips... It was beautiful.
"Have you had any spotting?"
Vera bit her lip. "A little here and there," she admitted, "But my doctor said it was fine."
He nodded, looking up at the screen. He pushed a button to make it zoom in a bit more.
"How often do you feel colder than usual?" he asked. Vera thought about it for a moment. She had been blaming it on the weather, but when she took the time to think about it, she really had been cold a lot... She almost always wore a jacket, socks, and a blanket around the house even with the fire going.
"A lot," she admitted.
Chad took down a few notes. "What does the pain feel like exactly?"
"Like... A pinch. A really painful pinch."
Chad went about checking her fluids, blood pressure, temperature and heart rate. He also took a vial of her blood, then went about running some tests. It took him nearly an hour, and when he came back, he didn't look very happy at the results.
"You really are quite healthy, Vera," he said, "And so is the baby... But I do think that something is different about the child. I think that she has become infected, but not in the way you thought." He pressed his lips together. "Assuming that you two have been sexually active, I have a theory."
He turned to Jason. "You are, in a way, a super human. Everything about your DNA is equipped to eliminate any being you choose. It's stronger than the DNA of a human, and it's created with a mutation that is very, very strong. You also have stronger instincts, even when it comes to mating... I have no doubt in my mind that she was pregnant before she ran away. In fact, the baby is on progress with that timeline. However, by having intercourse, you injected semen into Vera's womb. This semen carried your mutation DNA. You remember how I said that she could not have had her child changed with out her being changed? That's true. She couldn't have had the injections... I think it was the direct contact of your semen and her womb that triggered it. Your semen mutated the fetus just like how the injections mutated yourself. What is in there is a healthy baby girl, but with your DNA. In a sense, that's your child through and through. Any DNA test would prove that. That means... That means this baby has probably developed some of your characteristics, and judging by the close up on the sonogram, I'm assuming she has developed herself a nice pair of fangs, which might explain Vera's... pain... And since the baby has your DNA, it would explain your extreme attachment."
After saying all that, he looked at the two, waiting for them to process the information he had gathered. It was a shot in the dark that could not be proven until the baby was born, but he couldn't think of any other way that this could have happened.
