Normal POV
Arctic was completely speechless at this new discovery, almost as frozen as Scourge was when hearing about the fox being expectant. In her older sisters arms were two, newborn pups, their eyes shining and full of curiosity at who this new person was.
The red wolf pup giggled as her wolf tail swished, purple and pink eyes shining with curiosity and excitement. While she had a fluffy white wolf muzzle and white tip on her bushy wolf tail, she had quills. They were Shadows style, but instead of black with red stripes, she was the opposite. Red with black streaks, black curves around her eyes, and black stripes on her arms and legs. Lastly she had pitch black wings, no pink like her mother, kinda looking like a baby dark angel in a way.
The other was quite shy, a black hedgehog with a long mane of black and pink hair already going to her feet. She had red, ruby eyes like Shadow, one being hidden by a bang as she frowned, burying her head into her mommys shoulder to hide. Arctic noticed she had a little hedgehog tail and ears as well.
"B-but...how..when did you- what the hell?" Arctic asked, unable to find any other words. She wiped the tears away at this litte sight, mainly because it was beautiful. Luna was a strong, sometimes ferocious wolf that you thought wouldnt have babies, just like Shadow, but here she was. Holding two pups that were part of her.
"Well, just like you, Shadow made love to me one night, and I assumed the condom snapped or whatever. Either way, I end up pregnant days later, freaking out about being a mother alone. And...surprisingly, Shadow didnt make me get rid of them. Almost like he wanted them, and I was..happy." Luna said, smiling lightly "But...you visiting me like a while ago, and I didnt even notice the bump." Arctic said.
"Because they were born a week before. We wolves are only pregnant for 2 months, sometimes 1. Since you have a female ancestor, I think its the regular 9 month cycle." Luna said, making her sister groan. She was happy to be having a baby of her own, but 9 months? Who knew how heavy one little pup would get in a sensitive, skinny belly.
"Why didnt you tell me?" Her sister finally asked.
"Shadow was around, and I didnt wanna watch him get whooped by my little sis." the wolf said, giggling with her pups. "Anyways, I think they share my love for music, especially Maria." Luna said, looking at the black and pink hedgie with pink and black wings.
Luna turned on some music on her phone, making Maria's red eyes widen and her bangs curve up as she looked as perky and excited as Rosa. When it was off, the bang flopped down again, being shy once more.
Both females giggled at that, how it was like the baby turned into a completely different person when music was playing. Who knew how that would be in the teen years.
Besides that, the mother wolf put both babies on the ground, letting them play with their blocks and toys nearby as the place was safe enough to let them wonder.
"So, why the tears?" Luna asked, making the polar foxes ears droop and sniffle.
"I got pregnant from Scourge, but when I told him, he said 'I dont bloody care about that parasite, I dont want you pregnant!'" Arctic said, burying her face in her hands as she cried again.
Luna's wolfish ears drooped as well, growling at the fact that Scourge hurt her little sister that badly. She knew how much Arctic wanted to have a baby with someone she loved someday. And that lover just stabbed her in the heart.
"You cant let him win." Luna said in a serious tone, crossing her arms.
"W-Wh...What do you mean?" Arctic asked, tiny orbs of water still caught in her eyes.
"This baby is yours too Arctic. Its a living being inside you, meaning you have the upper hand in this say, not him." She said, getting up to get a drink from the bar, digging into the mini fridge.
"But what if he doesnt love me anymore? I mean, why is he even making such a big deal about this anyways?" Arctic asked her sister, as if she had the answer. Which ironically, she actually did.
"He's scared." Luna responded, taking out some red, cranberry juice and fruit.
"Scared? Scared of what? He's king of moebius, he wasnt scared of jail, or scared of conquering this rock of a planet on his own." the fox said while Luna shook her head.
"It has to do with his father. Have you ever stopped to think about why Scourge kicked his father into the Zone of Silence? It wasnt because he was a bad leader or anything, but because he was a neglectful father to Scourge." Luna said.
That statement made Arctic think really hard. Scourge had mentioned how bad his father was before, it made sense to think Scourge was scared of being just like him to his own kid.
"He thinks he'll be like his dad." Arctic whispered while Luna nodded, eating a blueberry with a clever smirk on her face as she found it out.
"Shadow thought the same. He was scared something would happen to the babies, all because he thinks Maria's death from the past was his fault." Luna stated.
The frosted fox got to her feet, whipped those tears away and got a serious look on her face. She wasnt scared, sad or afraid anymore, she was the same Arctic she's always been inside.
"Thanks sis." She said, flying out as Luna giggled, eating another berry as Rosa looked after the fox that dashed out.
"Baba." Rosa said, making Luna squeal and giggle in all the cuteness.
Back at the castle...
Scourge hated how Arctic left crying into the rain, but he wasnt wrong! He didnt want a baby, and she knew that, but no! Somehow, a baby had to be implanted in his new lover, when Fiona never got pregnant after the hundreds of times they had sex.
"Whatever, Arc will do anything to get on my good side. Ive seen a lot of that already." He said, looking out the window as Arctic snarled behind him, making the green hedgehog jump and yelp in surprise, his quills raised in defense.
"Theres a lot ill do to make you happy, Scourge. But I will not, repeat, not murder our baby! And I know why your so scared." Arctic said, crossing her arms under her thick breasts.
"Dont know what the fuck your talking about." Scourge said, looking away and crossing his arms. Feeling quite smart and in control, until the next thing the fox said.
"Your scared of this baby because of your dad. You may think you'll be just like him and be mean to your child. Well your not. Your not your father, your Scourge the hedgehog, not anti Sonic, evil Sonic, or whatever. Your a unique guy with his own style and power. And if you dont want this baby, even after all ive said, then im sorry. I dont know what else to tell you." Arctic said, walking off.
Now Scourge was frozen again. What she said was kinda true, when he was still a little kid, his father always neglected him, even when he got hurt. He got a flashback of when he was a kid, walking to his dad with a cut on his arm and tears in his eyes.
'Not now Sonic, daddys busy!' his father said, making him growl and punch a dent in the wall.
"Someones in a mood." A female voice said, it was Fiona who was alive and well again, having a few bruises here and there, but still fine. Scourge said nothing to the traitor. "Look, I admit I cheated on you, but only because you refused to settle down with me. I trusted you Scourge, your the first guy I ever trusted in years. You know how much it hurt when you said those things about having a baby?" Fiona asked.
Scourge remained silent, looking out at the pouring rain as he remembered all those things he said.
"Either way, I found a guy who wanted to make me happy, and I am now. And...I guess you found someone that made you happy, so dont screw it up." She said, placing her hands on her hips like usual.
"So suddenly your nice? Did Arc hit you in the head?" Scourge asked while the brunette rolled her eyes. "Doesnt matter, im still gonna hang around since im in charge of the Destructix. And besides, cant really live out there now." She said, walking off with a hand on her stomach, meaning she was carrying Lightnings pup now.
The emerald king couldnt think after that, first Arc, now Fiona? Things were going crazy, and he still wasnt sure he wanted the baby. Clearly, he needed time to think as he went to sleep alone in his room.
