WARNING: OWL BIRTH, AU, OOC

X.X

Calm down Kludd. Pacing back and forth isn't going to help the eggs hatch any faster." an old owl said gruffly as he watched the young soon-to-be father anxiously pace back and forth in the mouth of the cave. It's been only a year since he's been married and already he's concerned about being a parent!

Allomere shook his head at the thought of owlets running around the cave, might even rip his own gizzard out if they refer to him as 'Uncle Allomere'. But even though he isn't a father himself, he's had experience with raising owlets. It wasn't so bad as the years progressed, but he's too old to have hatchlings of his own. Gruff was with Victoria watching the eggs. It was Gruff who first heard the slight crack coming from the white orb.

The Great Gray was worried though. How are they going to learn to fly? They live in a cave after all. Owls are rarely born in caves. They belong in the trees after all. They'll have to figure out something later on. But tonight was a special night. Tonight would be the beginning for a new life. Two new lives in this case. If having one owlet in the cave was bad enough. Twins! Oh, dear Glaux, he just prayed that they weren't brothers.

"They're coming!" Victoria's excited voice cried, "They're coming!"

The two owls immediately rushed over to her nest. She was standing by the nest, transfixed by the sight of her first egg rocking a bit before finally the familiar look of an eggtooth appeared, signaling that the tiny creature inside was making its way out.

"Amazing." Gruff gasped softly, having never seen a hatching before. Being a wolf it was likely that he wouldn't see a hatching anyway. But the normally calm wolf was excited. What kind of owls would they group up to be? Oh! The wonders of life.

Kludd was nervous though. He just prayed that they wouldn't grow up to be like him. He would be sure to treat them with the EXACT amount of love. Just then a tiny noise could be heard from within the egg and everyone froze. With a final crack, the slimy blob of white down rolled out and landed on the soft animal pelt, shivering. Allomere bent down to examine it and smiled softly.

"It's a girl." he announced.

Victoria let out a screech of excitement while Kludd sighed in relief. But there was still another egg to go. A few seconds later a black blob rolled out of the white shell. Allomere examined it as well and announced that it was a boy.

So I have a daughter and a son, Kludd thought to himself as he stared at the shivering blobs. Gruff gently licked the slimy yok off before nudging them to their parents. Victoria felt tears of joy stream down her cheeks when she bent down to get a closer look at her twins. The white hatching weakly touched her beak with her own and Victoria couldn't help but chuckle. Kludd slowly bent down, his heart racing at the excitement. He touched the black hatchling with his beak gently, earning a soft chirp in reply.

"Hello there little one..." he said softly.

The black owlet shakely raised his head up to the source of his voice and chirped in reply. Kludd felt a single tear run down his scard cheek. This was an amazing moment for him. This was just the part of a new beginning for him.

Meanwhile Allomere remained silent and just watched. A sudden feeling of guilt ripped it's way unforgivingly through his old gizzard. He thought of Struma. He wondered if she ever found a new lover. But he knew he had to let her go. If she did then he should be happy for her. Putting on a small smile, he turned back to his friends.

"What should we name them?" Victoria asked her mate.

Kludd thought for a moment before a mischievous smile appeared on his beak. "I'm naming our son Victor. Because he will remind me of you every time I hear his name." Kludd replied proudly.

Victoria blushed before a similar smile appeared on her black beak. "Alright then. I'm naming our daughter Katrina. Because your name starts with a K and her name starts with a K." Victoria replied. Kludd and the others chuckled before everyone looked back down at the sleeping hatchlings...

Me: I am soooooooooo sorry it took so long with the sequel. I was...busy.

Crazybird: Translation: School, projects, family, and other fics.

Me: *bonks her head with a toy hammer* Anyway, I'll try to make this longer and I'll also try not to make as many errors like the last one.

Everyone: Peace! ^-^
