Discord's Chaotic Heir
3. What's the Name Going to Be?
Previous ChapterApplejack was now seven months in her pregnancy. All had been good and well the past months. The foal was due in August, and that made Discord a bit jumpy at times. Today she was in the bakery enjoying a peanut butter and avocado cupcake, when an explosion of excruciating pain burst from her underside caused her to cry out in pain. Immediately, Discord telported to the hospital, taking Applejack with him. He took her in and the doctor looked over her pain and looked at the papers he held.
"Sadly, she isn't going into labor, she's only seven month along. What she was expieriencing was Braxton Hicks or in your case, false contractions. These happen because the body is preparing for real labor contractions. Your's were a bit extreme, only because the baby is a pony and a draconequus. The Braxton Hicks come from time time to time, to help I would lift your hooves up onto a table and drink a cold glass of water. These are supposed to occur during your eigth or ninth month, but your's happened a bit early, hinting that your foals due date has been nudged up a bit. Your foal will more and likely be born in July." the doctor explained.Applejack looked at her very swollen belly. Her foal will be here soon. Discord had teleported them home, putting Aj in a comfortable position, raising her hooves. He kindly grabbed a cold glass of her favorite water brand, Manehattan Mountains, and gave it to her. After that, she asked him a very important question.
"Discord, what's the name?"
"Huh?"
"What are we naming the foal?"
"Oh, I was thinking something like Applejade or Applehearts."
"Oh the irony. I knew you'd think I wanted her to have an apple in her name."
"Wait, what did you say before the whole apple in her name thing?"
"The irony?"
"That's it!Irony!That is a beautiful name."
So it was decided, her name will be Irony. After that they ate and watched television. Applejack was tired, so they went to sleep. Slumber enveloped them int it's refreshing embrace.
