An Hour Before

King Silver Knight and Queen Mi Amore were up in the heavens, bouncing on clouds as they talked of when their son would look like. Queen Mi Amore was 10 and a ½ pregnant and was waiting for her time to give birth. Angel ponies usually were known to give birth exactly after 11 months. As she was softly bounding on the puffy clouds, she suddenly gasped as a strong contraction hit. She fell to the ground as Silver Knight ran to her.

"Is it…?"

"Yes!"

"But it's too early!"

"SO! GET ME..*huff*... TO A HOSPITAL NOW!"

"OK OK!" Silver Knight replied as he teleported them to the same special hospital as King Shadow and Queen Midnight. Mi Amore was lifted onto a stretcher and carried off into a room. Silver Knight squeezed Mi Amore's hoof tightly. She huffed and puffed, feeling tired and weak from the pain.

Present Time

After an hour of pain of a new mother, a new baby colt was born. He had a snowy white coat, blue eyes, and scruffy brown hair. He sported a small crown halo and small, fluffy angel wings. As Mi Amore contemplated what his name should be, Silver Knight held his new baby colt staring at him lovingly.

"How about…*pant*...Glider?" The queen asked her beloved husband.

"No, more like Silver Knight Jr."

"He isn't silver, honey."

"So? Who cares?"

"I do."

"Fine then. How about Shining Knight?" The baby woke up at the name, staring at them.

"Okay, Shining Knight it is." Mi Amore agreed as she tickled her little colt into a fit of giggles.

The couple spent the night watching Shining Knight drift back to sleep in Silver Knight's arms and soon found themselves joining him too in the land of dreams.
