Chapter 6
Scimitar and Rogue were at each other's throats, litterally trying to kill each other, when Mag waddled in. She growled at them. "Would you two stop doing that?! We don't need two dead ponies on our hooves!!" Both ponies fell silent, neither wanting to feel the wrath of Magnolia. Rogue thought she was bad enough when NOT pregnant, she was worse when she WAS. Scimitar just didn't want to deal with it. The two males got as far apart as the shackles would allow. Scim smiled a bit. "Need something, Mag?" Magnolia nodded. "Yes, a fast trip to the hospital. Say, now?" Scimitar gulped. "Do I even dare ask why?" Mag smiled a rather fake smile. "It's called, we get to get a checkup today. Got a problem with that?" Scimitar shook his head fast. "No, dear, no problem at all!!" Rogue frowned a bit. "Do we even know who's kid it is?" Scimitar gave Rogue a hard smack on the back of the head.

Ghost was found by Blade huddling under the couch, avoiding the strong throwing arm of Kasumi. She'd already nearly castrated Khopesh, Silver, Scimitar, Rogue, Spectre, and a whole list of other males. Even Ghost. It was those blocks that she threw. Blade just stared at the younge pony before asking him a question. "Ghost, why are you under the couch?" Ghost shuddered a bit. "Kasumi throw block, big ouchie." Blade blinked. "Forget I asked." He stood up, then walked off, only to get hit in the back of the head by a block. He turned around. Kasumi grinned, ready to throw another block. Blade growled. "If you even THINK about it, I'll...." He heard a growl that could only be that of his mother. "You'll do WHAT?" Blade meeped. "Nothing!" "Good." Magnolia waddled out the door. "I swear, if there's more than one child in there, I'll have to kill whoever the father is." Scimitar and Rogue both stopped dead, bug eyed. They'd done the smart thing and called a cab, Rogue didn't know shit about driving. At that point, both turned when they heard a yelp from Blade. Kasumi struck again, for Blade was bent over, in pain from an almost castration by a block. They heard Mag calling and went out the door.
Blade glared at his youngest sister. She was squeeling in delight, while T.J. and Glider were trying to crawl under the couch with Ghost. Sparkler walked in. She looked at Blade odd. "Why are you bent over like that?" Blade groaned. "Kasumi throws HARD. I envy Ghost, he can hide easily." Sparkler laughed, walking away.
There was a knock at the door. Inca answered it, eating a peanutbutter sandwich. She loved this thing she found new. Now it was a matter of keeping the stuff in the house long enough for everyone else to get some. Tex was at the door. He smiled, tipping his hat. "Howdy, ma'am. I'm looking for two certain ponies, Rogue and Silver." Inca frowned. "Rogue just left, attached to Scimitar, with Magnolia for her monthly check up. And Silver is-" Something crashed in the room at the end of the hall. "Down the hall, door right at the end." Tex tipped his hat again. "Thank you, ma'am." As he walked down the hall, he wondered who she was. Inca went back to the kitchen, to make herself a new sandwich. Halbred watched from the kitchen. "You like peanutbutter, don't you?" Inca gave him a clearly fake smile. "If it keeps this THING in me from kicking, it works." Halbred laughed, the peanutbutter thing was one of HIS loves when he found out about it. "That THING must get it from me, I'm particular to the super chunk." Inca scowled at him, taking a bite of a new sandwich.

Sabre ducked out of the way as Silver and Khopesh rolled around, trying to cause the other a great deal of pain. It was working, really. Khopesh had a large cut down his arm and Silver had a broken wing. Tex walked in and whistled, making both ponies stop. They gaped at him. Tex sighed. "Aparently, Silver is better off in a cell with Spectre. Or, the two of you can GET ALONG!" Silver gulped, nodding. "Y-yes sir." Khopesh just made a face. "Stick the damn kid in there! He's a pain in the ass!!!" Tex shook his head a bit. He'd never understand some ponies. "Get along and I might talk that judge into letting you off early, Silver. Say, in a week? Last ONE week, without fighting. And the shackles come off." Silver's face brightened. "Yes sir!" Khopesh grinned. "Even I'll try to last a week longer with this pain in the ass." Tex nodded. "Good. Now, one of you care to tell me WHO the green pony with the purple on her face is?" Kho sighed. "My brother's wife. She fell in love with peanutbutter and we have to buy a ton just so everyone else can get some. She's kinda on the pregnant side." Tex nodded again. "Thank you. Now, I must be going. Good bye, boys. And behave." With that, he turned tail and left. Not that he had much of a tail to begin with. Silver and Kho were dancing with joy, only one possible week stuck together left!

The phone rang. Blade picked it up. "Yello." It was Scimitar, calling from the hospital. "Blade, Mag went into labor, I fear for my very LIFE!!" Blade hid a laugh. "Should I be there?" "No, not really. Not unless you wanna be missing something VITAL." Blade gulped. "How is she doing, exactly?" "Let's just say they had to call a janitor after her water broke on the way out of the room." Blade couldn't help but laugh. "I'll go tell everyone." Scim made a squeek of a sound. "No, Blade! Tell NO ONE! Mag forbid that I even tell YOU!! She'll have my HEAD!!" Blade heard Rogue scoff in the backround and say "She'll have your manhood cut off before she'd have your head!" Scimitar said something that Blade couldn't hear, then he was back on the phone. "Look, I gotta go now, Mag wants those ice chips she sent us for." Blade nodded, then remembered Scim couldn't see him through the phone. "Right, bye." With a click, Blade hung up, then fainted.

Gold answered the door when she heard a knock. She looked up at a unicorn that made her think of Scimitar, but he was different somehow. Gold blinked. "Hello, may I help you?" The unicorn looked over his shoulder, then back at Gold. "Two things. One, please hide me before rabid femmes rip me apart." Gold laughed and let him in. The uni looked gratefull. "Thank you. Now, the second thing... You seen my brothers, Scimitar and Sabre?" Gold nodded. "Scimitar is at the hospital right now, and Sabre... Avoiding getting killed by a couple of fighting ponies. Now, who might you be?" The uni blinked for a moment, then regained his trail of thought. "Scyth." Gold tilted her head. "Do naming sons with the same first letter to their name run in the family or something?" Scyth shook his head. "Nah, it's just what we were each named at the spoof of the moment." "Oh." At that point, Sabre walked by, heading for the kitchen, shaking his head. Scyth blinked, watching him go by, then hugged him. "Sabre!! You don't know how GREAT it is to see another male!!" Sabre blinked. "Gettin' kinda swishy on us, Scyth?" Scyth looked at Sabre odd, then processed what he'd just said, letting his youngest brother go with a shudder. "Well, that was creapy..." Gold simply shook her head with a laugh, then walked off.
