(In the clubroom…)

Monika: “MC, I had the weirdest dream last night…”

MC: “Oh really? What was it about?”

Monika: “Well, I dreamt that the clubroom was filled with talking cats. They were all wearing bowties and giving poetry recitals. It was so bizarre!”

MC: “Wow, that does sound strange. What were they reciting?”

Monika: “I couldn’t really understand all of it, but it seemed like they were reciting love poems. It was quite delightful in a peculiar way. I wish I could remember the verses, they were enchanting.”

Sayori: (bursts into the clubroom) “Monika, are you talking about talking cats?! I had the same dream too!”

Monika: “No way! You dreamt about talking cats reciting poetry as well?”

Sayori: “Yes, it was like a feline poetry slam right here in the clubroom, but the cats were all wearing tiny top hats.”

MC: “This is getting weirder by the second. Are you sure we didn’t accidentally go to some magical cat world in our dreams?”

Natsuki: (enters the clubroom) “What’s all this commotion about talking cats? You guys are being weird.”

Monika: “Natsuki, did you have any weird dreams lately?”

Natsuki: “Dreams? Ugh, I don’t remember my dreams. They’re not even worth talking about.”

Yuri: (quietly enters the clubroom) “Actually, I had a similar dream as well. The cats were reciting dark and mysterious poems. It was an eerie atmosphere but strangely captivating.”

MC: “So it seems like we all had similar dreams with these poetic cats. Is there some kind of hidden meaning behind it?”

Monika: “Who knows? Dreams can be unpredictable, but it’s fascinating how all of us experienced the same thing, even if it was bizarre.”

Sayori: “I think it would be fun to write our own cat-themed poems based on our dreams. We can have a special cat poetry event!”

Natsuki: “Are you serious? Cat-themed poems? Ugh, that sounds silly-” (feels a strong pain, but not from her unborn baby girl - Sakura) “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! OH GOSH, THIS SHOULDN’T BE HAPPENING NOW!!!”

MC: “Natsuki, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”

Natsuki: “I’m having contractions!”

Monika: “Contractions? Natsuki, are you going into labor? We need to get you to a hospital!”

Sayori: “Oh no, this is unexpected! MC, call an ambulance!”

MC: (frantically calling) “Yes, hello? We have a member of our club who is going into labor. We need an ambulance right away!”

Yuri: “Natsuki, try to stay calm. We’ll take care of you.”

Natsuki: (gritting her teeth) “I-I’ll try…”

Monika: “Don’t worry, Natsuki. We’ll make sure you and the baby are safe. Just hold on.”

MC: (on the phone) “They’re on their way. Hang in there, Natsuki.”

Natsuki: (breathing heavily) “O-Okay…”

Yuri: “We should clear some space in the clubroom and make it as comfortable as possible for Natsuki. She needs our support.”

Monika: “You’re right, Yuri. Let’s move some chairs and get some blankets.”

Sayori: (pacing back and forth) “I can’t believe this is happening. I hope Natsuki and the baby will be alright…”

Yuri: “We need to stay calm and focused. Natsuki needs our positive energy right now.”

Natsuki: “Uh…guys?”

MC: “Yes, Natsuki? What is it?”

Natsuki: “I-I think my water just broke…I’m in active labor…”

Monika: “Oh my goodness, this is happening faster than we anticipated! We have to act quickly. MC, call the ambulance back and let them know Natsuki’s water broke and that she’s in active labor.”

MC: (panicking) “Yes, of course! Hold on, Natsuki, help is on the way!”

Yuri: “Natsuki, try to breathe deeply and focus on your breathing. It will help you manage the pain.”

Sayori: (teary-eyed) “You’re doing great, Natsuki! Just a little longer and everything will be okay.”

Monika: “We’re all here for you, Natsuki. You’re not alone.”

MC: (on the phone) “Hello? It’s me again. Natsuki’s water broke, and she’s in active labor. Please hurry!”

Natsuki: “O-Okay, I’ll try to stay calm…AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!”

(As Natsuki lets out an agonizing scream, it eventually becomes clear that she’s just started to push - and they needed to set up a makeshift delivery room.)

Monika: “Quick, we need to help Natsuki get into a comfortable position. Yuri, do you have any blankets or towels we can use?”

Yuri: “Yes, I have some here. Let me spread them out on the floor for Natsuki.”

Sayori: “I’ll grab some water and a clean cloth for Natsuki to cool her forehead with.”

MC: “And I’ll double-check the directions to the nearest hospital in case the ambulance doesn’t arrive on time.”

(They all work together to support Natsuki during her intense labor, providing emotional and physical comfort. As Natsuki continues to push, the room is filled with a mixture of tension, anticipation, and concern.)

Monika: “You’re doing amazing, Natsuki! Just a little more, and you’ll meet your baby!”

Natsuki: (straining) “I-I can do this…I can do this…”

Yuri: “Remember to breathe, Natsuki, and focus on the end result. Your baby will be here soon.”

Sayori: “We’re all here for you, Natsuki. You’re incredibly strong.”

(Just as it begins to feel like time has stopped, the sound of sirens is heard outside. The ambulance has arrived.)

Paramedic: “We’re here for Natsuki. What’s the situation?”

MC: “She’s in active labor, and her water broke. She’s been pushing for a while now.”

Natsuki: “Please…just get Sakura out of me…AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!”

(The paramedics quickly assess the situation, preparing to transport Natsuki to the ambulance.)

Paramedic: “Alright, we’ll take it from here. Let’s get you to the hospital where you can safely deliver your baby.”

Natsuki: (weakly) “Please, hurry…AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! OH GOD, HER HEAD’S CROWNING!!!”
