Twilight tossed and turned as she whined out in her sleep. Luna sensing the distress immediately awoke. She gently started to kiss Twilight's cheek, ear, chin, and nose.

With each kiss a gentle ripple of magic entered Twilight's body. She soon started to calm as she went back to a peaceful dream.

Luna smiled as she looked down at her beautiful Princess. She then directed her attention to Twilight's stomach. She gently brushed away the fur on her stomach to reveal her scar.

Luna leaned down and gave Twilight's scar a gentle kiss. Twilight shuddered in her sleep at the touch of her scar.

Luna's ear flopped over as the memories revisited her. She growled as her eyes shut and she relived the scene happening before her very eyes. The news, Twilight's depression, everything.

Luna shook her head as she looked back down at Twilight. She got close to her stomach and gently rested her ear on it. Her eyes widened at the sound of a small, faint heartbeat.

Tears started to cloud her vision as she sniffled. Twilight opened her eyes and looked down. She didn't move, she just looked down at Luna, seeing the back of her starry mane.

"I promise, for as long as I live. When you are born little one, no harm will come your way. I will protect you, your mother, your brother, with my last breath. Just please….hang in there for us. We need you here." Luna whispered as she placed a gentle hoof on Twilight's belly.

Twilight leaned her head up a little. Luna's ear perked up as she turned around and looked at her. Twilight gave Luna a warm smile as she grabbed Luna's face with both hooves.

Neither one of them said anything. Twilight looked into Luna's eyes. She read her like an open book. She saw the years of loneliness and pain that this mare has suffered.

Luna read Twilights eyes. She saw the underlining doubt that this mare had about herself. The self-esteem issues she covered up with all of her smarts.

They continued to read each other before Luna moved in closer and kissed Twilight gently and lovingly. Twilight wrapped her hooves around Luna's neck to pull her in closer.

They never deepened the kiss, they just kept their lips together. Luna's wings opened and slowly started to fold around both her and Twilight.

After what felt like an eternity they finally broke the kiss.

"We are in this together my love. Please do not let your fears take over." Twilight whispered.

Twilight smiled as she leaned against Luna. Luna's wing closed more around them. She smiled as she gently kisses Twilight's forehead.

Luna sighed, "I apologize my love. I will try, I just cannot help myself. My thoughts always seem to drift that way."

Twilight looked up at Luna as she gently rubbed her cheek, "It's fine my love. Whether it is one time or millions of times. I will continue to reassure you that nothing is ever going to change. I am still going to love you unconditionally."

Luna smiled as she held Twilight close to her. Twilight rested her head on Luna's chest, her eyes grew heavy as she slowly fell asleep.

Luna laid there awake. She listened to the steady sound of Twilight's breathing. She stared at the ceiling as her own eyelids grew heavy. She closed her eyes as she slowly fell asleep.

The next morning the two were abruptly awoken by a little colt jumping on their bed.

"Mommy! Mommy! Wake up! Wake up!" Vesper said as he continued to jump on their bed.

Twilight raised her head and smiled, Luna leaned up and grabbed Vesper. She pinned him down and tickled him.

"Hahahaha! Mommy! Stop It!" Vesper laughed as he tried to push Luna away.

"You come into our room and have the nerve to abruptly wake us both then you tell me to stop punishing you. Nope." Luna growled as she tickled him more.

Vesper continued to laugh as Luna tickled him more. Twilight covered her mouth as she giggled.

Luna ended her tickle torture with a raspberry. Vesper wiped the tears around his eyes.

Luna smiled as she yawned and lay back, holding Vesper close to her chest. "So my little nightmare, what has you running in here like you have lost your mind?"

Vesper looked at Luna lost for a minute. Luna and Twilight gave the colt a confused look.

After two minutes of completely silence a lightbulb flickered, "Oh that's right. Auntie Celestia's baby is coming!"

Luna sat up and looked at her son in disbelief.

"I thought she has another 3 months." Twilight said.

Luna used her magic to fix her mane really quick. "Well remember this is discords child, it is only natural that this pregnancy would be irregular"

Twilight giggled as she brushed her teeth and fixed her own mane, "Well I just hope my pregnancy would be someone normal."

Luna smiled as she placed Vesper on her back. "Well it is so far my love." She turned back to look at her son.

"Where is your aunt?" Luna asked.

"Discord took her to the hospital already. He told me to tell you two to meet them there." Vesper said as he held on.

"Twilight my love, should we take the carriage or do you think you can fly?" Luna asked

"I should be fine my love, let's go, we don't want to miss the foal." Twilight said as she took off first. Luna was right behind her.

[hr]

When Twilight and Luna got there they noticed that Discord was making a ruckus.

"What do you mean I can't see my wife. That is my family in there! Do you know who you are talking too! I am the LORD OF CHAOS!" Discord roared as he started to throw things around.

Luna sighed as she used her magic to clean the room and repair everything he broke, "Discord please restrain yourself."

Discord huffed, "I can't help it. That is my wife in there Lulu. I just want to make sure she is alright. I know that this birthing would not be easy. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if she wanted to kill me afterwards."

Luna laughed, "I am glad my wife is too sweet to want to kill me, Right dear?" Luna turned and looked at Twilight.

Twilight chuckled, "Remember dear, this is just the early stages of the pregnancy, rumor has it that is gets way worse later on. Don't let my pretty face fool you love, I am pretty sure I can be scary."

Luna stuck out her tongue as she teased, "About as scary as a breezy."

Celestia's screams echoed throughout the hospital.

Discord roared, "THEY ARE KILLING HER! LET ME THROUGH! LET ME THROUGH!"

Twilight and Luna aided in holding him back. Discord thrashed around until he wore himself out.

After a few hrs the doors opened and a doctor stepped through, clipboard in hand. "Mr. Discord?"

Discord jumped from his chair, "That is me, How is she?"

The doctor chuckled. "She is fine. The delivery was a success. Would you like to come and see your foal?"

Discord nodded as he, Luna, Twilight, and Vesper followed behind the doctor.

They entered a hospital room to see Celestia laying on the bed with her wings folded over her chest. Her head was resting on her pillow and her mane was a mess.

Discord walked over to the bed and Celestia raised her head as he lowered his and they nuzzled.

"How are you feeling my dear?" Discord asked.

"I am fine, do you want to see her?" Celestia asked as she looked down at her folded over wings.

Discord nodded as his eyes locked onto her wings.

Celestia moved her wings to reveal a foal in a tightly wrapped pink blanket. The foal had a powerful red mane and a bright white coat. She opened her eyes to show one red and the other pink.

"She looks, kind of… normal dear." Discord said as he raised an eyebrow.

Celestia peeled off the blanket to show her light blue bat wings, her green dragon tail with a red tip, and her two back talons.

Discord breathed a sigh of relief, "I got nervous there for a minute." He reached down and gently kissed his daughter's forehead.

Celestia wrapped the foal back up in the blanket.

"Have you come up with a name for her dear sister?" Luna asked.

Celestia nodded, "I am going to name her Elysian."

Discord stroked his beard, "Elysian… Elysian. I like it. It suits her."

Elysian sneezed as she opened her eyes, blinking a few times before yawning and falling asleep.

The whole room broke out in awe's.

Twilight leaned against Luna and Luna wrapped her wing around her. Vesper ran up to the bed and looked at Elysian.

"Look at my new baby cousin. I can't wait till she gets older so we can play." Vesper said as he gently petted her mane.

Luna and Twilight smiled.
