A Very, Very Irritated Mother

"Again?" Fluttershy exclaimed, "This is the fifth time this animal won't listen to me!" The Bear-Bee flung it's vicious paws in the air; it's claws inches from Rainbow Dash's chest.

"That thing almost killed me!" Dash yelled, "Fluttershy, do your stare!"

"I can't! It won't stay still!" Fluttershy replied. Rarity, sitting on the Hay Cafe outside tables, looked over the chaotic scene. Rarity was pregnant with her first foal, eight months, and she won't risk hurting the baby.

"Doing great darlings!" Rarity cheered while chomping on a chocolate fudge cake.

"Won't you help us?" Rainbow asked. "It's bad enough AJ isn't here to lasso the thing! Can you use your magic?" Rarity rolled her crystal blue eyes.

"Dear, apparently you do not see I am pregnant," Rarity stated. Rainbow Dash rolled her dark pink eyes.

"Gee, thanks Captain Obvious," Rainbow snarled. Rarity took another mouthful of a bite.

"Why can't Twilight use her magic?" Rarity asked, her mouth half-full.

"Well, if you haven't noticed, she has a ten month old filly on her back, and she's doing all she can!" Rainbow exclaimed.

"Rarity, please, we need more magic!" Twilight yelled. Rarity rolled her eyes once more, got out of her seat, and went closer.

"I do hope my water does not break," Rarity stated. Her blue magic shot out of her horn. Her magic and Twi's magic mixed, and the Bear-Bee finally stood still.

"Fluttershy, do the stare!" Twi demanded.

Oh, sweet Celestia, I hope this works, Fluttershy thought. She shot her aqua eyes straight into the Bee-Bear's and...

...it failed.

"W-what? It DIDN'T WORK!!??" Fluttershy exclaimed.

"What the buck!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. The Bear-Bee kept swinging its paws back and forth, each sharp claw almost killing one pony or another.

"Mommy!" A high-pitched screech came. A galloping little filly, barely two, came up to Twilight.

"Blue, Mommy's busy!" Twi replied. Blue Harmony, Twilight's child, ignored her mother's comment.

"Daddy told me monsters are in my closet," Blue pointed over to Vladimir Blueblood, Twilight's husband.

"V!" Twi scolded, "I told you I had to save Ponyville so you would have to watch Bluey! Not scare her to death!"

Vladimir came closer.

"Well, in my defense we were watching Monsters Inc, and I told Bluey that a monsters in her closet," Vladimir stated.

"That's a pity defense, V," Twi said. Vladimir held his hoof up to protest.

"I told her that it would be a nice monster like Mike or Sully..." Vladimir stated.

"Still traumatic," Twilight argued. The Bear-Bee, still fighting RD, Pinkie, and Fluttershy wasn't interested in Twi's argument with her husband. It flinged it's huge arm and hit Fluttershy's right back leg.

"Ouch!" Fluttershy squeaked, and she fluttered down to the ground. "I-I think I broke my leg!" Rarity galloped over to the poor pegasus.

"Oh, darling, are you alright?" Rarity asked. Fluttershy, tears running down her face, shook her head.

"Twi! Quick! Transport it back to it's cave!" RD yelled. Twi turned from confronting her husband to the sight that bestowed her.

"Yes, yes, okay, Rainbow!" Twi shot her magic in the Bear-Bee's direction and with a big white flash, the Bear-Bee disappeared. The whole trio gasped and breathed heavily. Twilight flew down to her husband and gave him a  kiss.

"Sorry V," Twi said softly, "I just really don't like it when you act like you're still a colt."

"Hey, I've only been a father for two years, I'm still learning," Vladimir protested. Twi chuckled and gave him another kiss.

"Um, excuse me?! I have a broken leg here!" Fluttershy exclaimed. Twi gasped.

"Oh my gosh, Flutters! I didn't even see it hit you! Are you alright?" Twi said.

"I'm not 100% alright but the pain is really strong," Fluttershy replied, "Plus, I've had two pregnancies and two long, three-day-labors. This pain is nothing to giving birth."

"I'm sure you're right," Twi laughed. "But, seriously, I'll get you a bandage." With a poof of her magic a light brown roll of bandage wrap popped in the sky. Using her magic, Twi wrapped it up Fluttershy's leg.

"Thanks Twi," Fluttershy said, "How long do I have to wear this?"

"For a month," Twi responded. "And I think it would be best if you fly home and rest. Let Granny Smith care on the foals, okay?" Fluttershy gulped. If my foals are in one piece when I get home! Fluttershy thought. And she flew off to Sweet Apple Acres, her home.
