Celestia's Son

“Push your majesty.” The doctor said in the delivery room. Celestia groaned as she pushed with all her might. She looked to Discord holding her hoof, a worried expression on his face. “I can see his head!.... Here he comes….” A foal's cry overtook the room as his head was pushed out, followed by the rest of him. “It's a colt! Oh wait… you knew that already” the doctor said with a grin as a nurse wrapped the foal in a towel and handed him to his mother.

“Shhhh…. Shhhh... Oh my sweet little Solar, I'm so glad I can try to be a better mother to you…” Celestia said as the white alicorn colt in her hooves calmed down.

“I suppose I should probably stick around some more to help raise him. After all, I'm partly to blame for all that happened last time…” Discord said as he rubbed the foal’s mane softly.

“That is true, you could’ve been a great deal more help last time. But you are here now, and you WILL be here for him now. Got it?”

“Erm… yes.”

“Good.” She said as she looked back to her son, who was now sleeping in her hooves, though shivering slightly. “Tsk, he never did like the cold…” she said as she conjured up a blanket to wrap around him.

Just then, knocking could be heard and the door opened up revealing a nurse. “Excuse me you’re highness, but you have quite a few ponies out here to see you.”

“Family first, my little pony.” Celestia replied, receiving a nod as the nurse left for a moment and the door opened again to reveal Luna, Cadence, and Flurry Heart.

“Sister! Was he born alright?” Luna asked worriedly.

“Yes Luna, he was born just fine.”

“Mother, is that really him?” Flurry asked her mother Cadence.

“Yes sweetheart, that’s Solar.” She replied with a tear running down her cheek.

“Don’t get in a rush to rut him again niece.” Luna said to Cadence. “We don’t need a repeat of last time.”

“What do you mean by last time Auntie Luna?” Flurry asked.

“She means the last time, we rutted every chance we could get,” Cadence answered. “And when I found out I was pregnant with you, I ended our relationship there and then, and ended up dating and marrying Shining Armor.”

“You left him an incredibly vague note that broke his heart and his mind.” Celestia responded. “You knew damn well that he loved you more than anything in this world, and you stabbed him in the heart.”

“I was sixteen! He was thirteen! Neither of us were ready to have a foal, let alone raise one!”

“You mean Shining Armor wasn’t my father?!” Flurry cried out.

“Flurry, Alicorn females can’t be impregnated by anything but a male alicorn or something with similar power. We taught you that in your biology classes.” Luna calmly told her.

“So that means… Solar… is my father?”

“Yes sweetheart.” Cadence said as she pulled her daughter into a hug. “I'm sorry, I thought you knew…”

“Alright you two, let’s let her rest.” Luna said as she led everypony out of the room.

*sigh* “They are quite a hoof-fool, aren’t they sweetheart?” Celestia whispered to her foal while rocking him gently. “I expect that we'll see some more of them soon enough…” As she said this, the Mane 6 and Chrysalis trotted into the room. “Told you.” She whispered to Solar as she placed a kiss on his nose, earning a coo from him.

“Princess! Congratulations!” Twilight cheerfully shouted, causing Solar to cry in his mother’s hooves. “oopsie…”

“Twibright, you need to calm down my faithful student.” Celestia said sternly as she rocked Solar back to sleep, shushing him softly as she did so.

“S-sorry princess…” Twilight said as she waited for the colt to drift back to sleep.

“It's alright, Twilight. You've just got to remember to be quiet around newborn foals. You're over a thousand years old now, do you understand?”

“Yes Princess…”

“He looks so darling!” Rarity squealed quietly. “I can’t wait to start designing outfits for him!”

“Just make sure they're practical, Rarity.” Applejack said. “He'll want to play outside if his memories don’t come back.”

“Of course, darling. I know how foals are. You recall, I've had a few myself before we realized the Elements gave us longevity, correct?”

“I can’t wait to teach him how to fly!” Rainbow Dash said. “I'll have to take some time off from running the country’s weather to do so, but it'll be so worth it!”

“And I'm going to throw him the biggest, biggest, most amazing parties every year on his birthday!” Pinkie Pie said as quietly as she could.

“Just try not to teach him how to do all the stuff you can do, darling. He'll be obscenely powerful as it is without breaking reality for fun. Remember that it took all six of us, the Royal sisters, Cadence, Chrysalis, a thousand changelings, and two hundred unicorns to keep him from killing Discord.”

“Please don’t bring that up.” Fluttershy said. “My husband was nearly lost that day, and I would much rather forget that time.”

“Agreed.” Chrysalis said. “My hive was nearly depleted of love after that fight. Most of it given to me by Solar.”

“And some from the other mares in his herd.” Celestia said with a smile.

“That is true.” Chrysalis said as she trotted to Celestia’s bedside, placed a kiss on Solar's forehead, then shared a short one with Celestia. “Mmm, delicious. Come all, let us let her rest.” She said as she led the others out.

Celestia waited for the door to close and locked it with her magic. “Alright you, time to eat.” She said as she used her magic to float him down to her teats, and she felt him nuzzle her until he found his food source, latched on and began feeding.

“You really are cute again… I just hope you don’t turn against us again… Last time we barely stopped you… I don’t know that we could stop you now that you doubled your power… Hopefully I will be able to raise you properly this time so it doesn’t happen again…”
