Chapter 2: Brood
The small town in Montana awoke with no knowledge of the events that had transpired the. Some of the women and girls noticed their bed sheets in unusual positions, but nothing to be alarming.
It was not for several weeks before the town physician became concerned that many of the town's girls and women were coming to him with early pregnancy symptoms. Most of the women and girls were even on birth control. Most professed a lack of sexual contact during the time when conception would have been most likely.
The most alarming of the pregnancies was a 10-year old girl who showed no signs of any sexual contact. The doctors little investigation even revealed that few of the girls under 16 had ever experience vaginal intercourse.
The doctor wrote some reports and spoke to city council members on the subject, but the plan was to try to deal with things locally. The town had seen its share of trials over the past hundred years; it could certainly survive a small baby boom. Maybe a population spike would do the town good in the end.
Months went by and 36 girls and women indeed progressed through seemingly normal pregnancies. The town handled the religious outcry regarding underage girls waddling around in middle and high school. The industrious and self-sufficient westerners kept up with demands of clothing the young mothers. The town adapted as it waited.
The local doctor's office did not have the sophisticated tools of a big city, but an internal ultrasound machine was enough to know that all 36 pregnancies were female. This was really the first thing that made the doctor really want to go outside the town for help and advice. Surely, 36 out of 36 being female meant something was wrong. In all other ways, the babies appeared healthy and normal.
