The mane six and their husbands, minus Fluttershy and Creature, two year and nine month old Speeding Ticket, one year and ten month old Word Smith, and eleven month old Party Animal and Comic Con were in the hospitle once more, looking through the glass wall in the room full of cradles. Fluttershy and Creature entered the room, walking over to a cradle. Fluttershy uncovered a small colt. The colt had a spiky purple mane and light yellow fur. He was a Pegasus.
"This is our son, Ranger," Creature said. Rainbow, Con, and Speeding entered and walked over.
"Oh, sweet!" Speeding said, "Another Pegasus to race! Alright!" He flapped his wings, making them appear a dark yellow blur.
"Well, actually," Fluttershy said quietly, "I was a very weak flyer, so it's possible Ranger will be, too."
"Yeah, you might have to go easy on this one," Rainbow smiled at her daughter.
"Speeding is a lot like you, Rainbow," Con laughed quietly, "I doubt she'll go easy on anypony."
The family left and Twilight, Book Worm, and Word Smith entered.
"Aw, what a cutie!" Word Smith whispered.
"Yes, he sure is," Twilight agreed.
"He looks like quite the adventurous one," Book Worm said.
The three left to be replaced by Pinkie, Butter, Party, and Comic. The nurse had let them in because, since they now had their own foals, they understood the importance of being quiet in the room.
Party and Comic stood on their hind hooves with their front hooves on the side of the cradle. They peered down at the sleeping colt.
"Cuuute!" Comic said. He wasn't that bright, just like his dad.
"Aw, I wish I could make him a cake," Party said, a little sad.
"Well, there's always his month-aversary!" Pinkie giggled.
The family left and in came Applejack and Simple Ways.
"He sure does look like you two," Applejack said.
"He's really cute," Simple Ways said.
The two left and finally Rarity and Pocket came in.
"Oh, I absolutely adore his mane," Rarity said, "It's so stylish!"
"It certainly does look nice," Pocket agreed before they left.
A month later, Ranger was a bit more grown and was already flapping his wings. One time the group was hanging around the woods, having a picnic. Speeding was watching over Ranger, who once in a while tried to wander into the Everfree Forest. Applejack was now about a month pregnant. Fluttershy looked over at her son, who was playing with the other foals: Speeding, Word Smith, and the now year old Party and Comic. Ranger walked over to the woods again, trying to fly high enough to get a good look.
"I gotcha!" Speeding said, flying under Ranger and lifting him on her back. Ranger laughed and looked out above the trees as Speeding skimmed the very top of the outer trees.
"Be careful!" Fluttershy called.
"Don't worry, I haven't crashed yet!" Speeding called down, flying to the ground with Ranger. Ranger looked sad and made a protesting noise, pointing to the forest.
"Sorry, little guy, but we can't go in there," Speeding shook her head.
"Of course not!" Fluttershy gasped, trotting over and scooping Ranger up, "Who knows what's in there?" This just made Ranger more excited and wanting to go in the forest, "No, Ranger. Come on, let's get home." Fluttershy, Creature, and Ranger left for Fluttershy's cottage. Ranger played with his pet wolf, Howler. Fluttershy had found the pup abandoned and took him in about a week or two ago, and he and Ranger bonded instantly.
After a few hours Fluttershy put a restless Ranger to bed. The colt didn't want to sleep, so Fluttershy sung him her special lullaby to help him.
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to lay your sleepy head
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to go to bed
Drifting off to sleep
The exciting day behind you
Drifting off to sleep
Let the joy of daylight find you
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to lay your sleepy head
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to go to bed
The colt fell asleep and Fluttershy went to bed, smiling.
