It was a cold and brutal December evening as a happy couple were quickly rushed to the hospital. The mare got put in a room, but the stallion had to stay in the waiting room. It was an incredibly long wait. The stallion nervously paced, worried if his beloved was alright. Eventually, a nurse came up to him, and said "She's ready to see you now.". The stallion hugged the nurse in relief, and with a slight drawl, he spoke. "Thank you ever so kindly, Ma'am!" He quickly rushed into the hospital room to see his beloved half-awake. "Hi, honey. Come look at your son." She said with drowsiness. The stallion walked up toward the bed to see her holding a royal-blue baby colt wrapped in a lighter blue blanket. The baby calmly cooed at the sight of him. "…He's beautiful." The stallion sighed as tears began to brim from his eyes. "We sure did good, huh?" He turned over to his wife to find her softly snoring. "Aw. C'mere." The stallion picked up the baby colt and started rocking him.

"I wonder what we oughta name you…" He started to think as he was disrupted by heavy wind and snow blowing near the room's window. "Hoo, that's a mighty fine storm out there…" The stallion sighed nervously. The baby colt looked outside at the falling snow, and locked his eyes on it. The stallion noticed him, and said "Oh, you like the snow out there, huh?". The baby colt cooed in amazement as a response. "Yeah, this was a big blizzard this year." The stallion started to nod, then stopped himself as if a lightbulb in his head turned on. "Why, that's it. Your name should be Blizzard." He looked at the infant and smiled. The baby colt cooed happily and smiled back. "You like that name, huh?" He asked the child. The baby colt cooed again, as if to say "Yes.".

"Alrighty, then. Here, you go back over with your mama…" He planted the baby colt back into his mother's arms, then grabbed the spare pillow and blanket and sat on the chair. "…and I think I'll just take a small nap until this storm passes." The stallion let out a big yawn, and then not long after, he fell asleep.

The snow was still blowing ever so heavily as the sky got darker. The baby colt cooed happily at the snow once more before falling asleep.
