Mare In The Everfree Forest

More weeks went by and I was still stuck with the feeding tube but I was able to keep simple fruits and vegetables down. As long as I couldn’t smell them. Luna loved the time when she can work on my joints since she could tease me or simply rest with her head on my stomach. My horn was getting better to the point I could hear the stars again.

“Sister!”

“Ow!” I covered my ears as I folded them.

“Silver?” I was laying in the bed on my side. I had a book in front of me with Twilight sitting nearby taking notes.

“Let's just say I can hear my siblings again. They are too excited for it” I groaned as I rubbed my head. Months of peace of not hearing voices and now this. I huffed as I could see her laughing.

“Keep it up princess, I can’t wait to see how you fair with your foals” I watched as her wings flared up and her eyes turn to pinpricks. I chuckled as I could see her eyes moving back and forth trying to internalize everything. I closed the book as I noticed Jr walking in with his foal on his chest. his eyes were tired as he let out a yawn. his mane was a mess causing me to smile.

“I hate this”

“Payback is a bitch”

“Funny mother” he glared over at me as I smiled.

“Look just think three more months and you will be a brother again. Would you like me to watch Aurora? I am stuck here still” I glanced over at the room as Luna started to change it to our bedroom smiling. I am shocked Celestia hadn’t stopped her since this is right off the court.

“No, we just came from a check-up. Luna wanted to see her while I was here visiting. The guards hate me” he smiled as I looked at him.

“Oh?”

“They can’t keep up with me when we do drills. Even Shining Armor is left in the dust. They have been asking where I get my knowledge”

“What happens when you tell them?”

“Never seen a bunch of ponies with such disappointment on their faces than theirs. Half asked if you can teach them.” I shook my head as I moved myself to look at them.

“Yeah well, I am still having issues walking. And I am still on a feeding tube” I looked at him as Jr nodded.

“I know. So do you know how many or what gender?” I could see they were both looking at me as I had a smile on my muzzle.

“Yes, but I am telling Luna first. From what I heard Celestia is having an alicorn filly?” I quickly changed the subject as I noticed Twilight blushing.

“Yes, that reminds me I need to go, and” she bolted from the room as Aurora started to cry. Jr sighed as he turned to walk out of the room whistling to himself. I ran a hoof along my stomach humming to myself a bit.

“Awww my little girl is grown”

“I have had three kids before this mother” I spoke up causing her to snicker “Still can’t figure out how I could keep them. I still look like a blueberry bagel”

“Don’t question miracles my little star. Once you are better and can visit again I must introduce you to your younger sibling”

“Really? I thought you weren’t going to make another?”

“Your siblings, already know all your father’s tricks causing him to grow a bit bored”

“Good luck with him” I smiled as I heard a cough. Turning my head I noticed Luna walking smiling softly.

“Am I interrupting?”

“No, just talking to mother” I smiled thinking I know how I was able to keep my pregnancy. I watched as she climbed onto the bed licking a few of my scars before resting her head on my side.

“Sorry I couldn’t make the appointment with Red today. I had to take over the court for Celestia”

“Twins, One filly and one colt.” I held up the ultrasound causing her to look at the picture smiling.

“No alicorns?”

“I am a unicorn my dear”

“You are a star” she had a slight chuckle on her lips as I sighed.

“You really wanted our children to be alicorns? You would have one bloody fight over who gets the throne” I could see her glaring over at me “We can always make more. I am not going anywhere” I leaned over and kissed her but let out a whimper as I was still sore. I let out a huff as I felt her rubbing my side to move the pain around. I felt her nibbling on my ear as she used her magic to braid my mane. At this point, I was letting her do what she wanted

Eight months, I had finally reached eight months and it was painful. I can hardly move on my own leaving the twins to help me around the room. Most days I was spent on my side feeling the twins poking my sides with their horns. I groaned while rubbing my stomach hoping these two would come soon. I have been under the constant watch of the medical team since My hip and leg were fixed during the fight. At the moment I can’t give birth naturally and will need their help. I was watching the clouds move around while I was messing with the silver necklace around my neck. Luna had made something for me till my horn was fully healed.

My eyes were glancing over my side noticing the scars and the light bruising. Some of it had healed but came back while I was working on my rehabilitation. I could only sigh as I moved my tail feeling the wind on my mane. I could hear the elements down below visiting Twilight and Celestia. I could see Luna enjoying herself as I smiled to myself. I could see her face turning as it came to the topic of Celestia and Twilight’s marriage. I wish I could give Luna the grand marriage she deserved.

“How are you feeling?” my ears twitched as I looked up noticing Discord. he had mellowed out a bit over time.

“Oh wishing this pain would end. But my siblings seem to be enjoying themselves making names for the twins” I chuckled as I huffed.

“This is the first time they know you can hear and talk to them. They are excited to see the twins”

“Never did ask how they watch?”

“Your mother has a river of liquid night running through her castle. They like to look down at the pond watching”

“Luna and I haven’t picked a name. But I am liking the one I think Namoii suggested. I am still learning names”

“What's the name?”

“Aisling or Arcane. Luna has the name picked out for the colt” I let out a huff feeling a bit annoyed she won’t tell me.

“She will tell you sometime” I turned and watched as he disappeared. I huffed as I heard more hooves entering the room. I soon felt myself being tackled from behind. I was in pain quickly as whoever tackled me hit my shoulder.

“Lavender what did I tell you about grandmother? She is very sore right now” I could see Red standing next to a large deep red stallion with a black mane. He was taller than Red who was blushing.

“Meet my partner Boomington! he owns a magical explosion company and” he was rambling. My eyes glanced down and noticed a lavender filly with a black and pink mane smiling up.

“Red your rambling and this filly is cute” I could tell he turned red as he looked down at the floor blushing.

“Are you really my grandmother?”

“If you want me to be?” I gave her a smile as her tail moved. I chuckled as she ran back to the two.

“So magical explosives?” I watched as he nodded. I tried to get up but I suddenly felt a pain in my hip. I let out a small whine as I felt Red pushing me down.

“Grandmother you only need to get up with help. your limbs are still”

“Red I am having pain in my stomach and hip” I let out a groan as I laid back on my side rubbing my stomach. I was panting heavily as I rolled onto my back trying to relieve some pressure on my side. I groaned looking up at him. I could see his eyes widen as he took a step back.

“Dear can you stay with her I need to get the staff”

“RED!”

“You need to go into surgery now! you're about to give birth and with your hip” I stopped listening to him as I fell on my back panting. I could feel their horns poking my side as I was huffing. I noticed the two ponies were staring in shock as Red ran back in with the Twins and a few more staff members. I felt myself getting picked up as I looked over at Night and Tea.

“Can somepony please get my wife” I growled as I looked at them. I noticed they went running as I was taken to the medical wing. I closed my eyes as I was one getting tired of seeing an operating room and two trying to stay calm. I felt a pinch in my hoof as I opened my eyes. Red was standing beside me on his back hooves.

“So you have some names picked out?”

“Luna has the colt and I think I have the filly” I felt something cold before going numb. I glanced around and looked for Luna but I didn’t see her.

“Where is Luna? The twins are getting her but you cannot wait”

“Sorry for interrupting plans” I could feel some tugging but couldn’t see much since I had a divider on me.

“My plan was to check on your feeding tube and then go to dinner. I was also going to yell at you since I heard you were not physically eating”

“Too painful at the moment”

“I can see why now” he chuckled as I soon heard crying. my, heart just stopped as a nurse walked around a dark blue filly with a white mane with a single black stripe in it. I chuckled as I could hear another. This time it was a colt who had a dark grey coat with a blue and pink mane. I could only smile as I felt more tugging on my stomach.

“We will check the children out. till then you are going back to the room to rest” Red huffed as he pulled the gloves off. I kept my breathing calm as I was returned to the room. I had yet to see Luna and was starting to worry. The nurses brought the foals in first as I laid on my side.

“Red can I feed them?” I glanced over as he nodded.

“Of course now where is Luna?” I blinked and watched as he walked to the window. I felt the nurse placing the twins near my breast allowing them to feed.

“Now I see why they haven’t been back. They placed a barrier around them”

“Discord!” I shouted hoping he would come. I watched as he popped in smiling. This time he was dressed as a nurse holding a tray of fruit and other items.

“Yes, my dear” he stopped as he noticed the foals that were attached to me.

“Meet Arcane Celestia and Lumi Dusk since my wife cannot be here” I let out a growl causing him to get down noticing them. He disappeared quickly then we both heard a loud yell.

“WHAT! WHERE!” I swear the windows could be shattered with her Canterlot voice. I watched as Luna teleported the whole table and group into the room freaking out. I could see her running to Red but the twins had released from me and started whining. I tried to move to get them but Red stopped me.

“Luna” he spoke up but she was too busy looking at the twins.

“Sister!” Celestia spoke up causing Luna to stare “I think you need to listen to the doctor”

“Oh right,” she smiled as Red shook his head.

“She cannot lift the foals up till her stitches heal. since the fight damaged her hip and leg she could not give birth normally. Right now she will need all the help you can give her. She also named them as well” Red walked out causing Luna to look at me.

“What did you name them?”

“Arcane Celestial for the filly and Lumi Dusk for the colt” I leaned into the bed feeling some weight off my shoulders. I let out a yawn as I placed my head on a nearby pillow. I had a grin on my face.
