It was late at night. Luna’s moon high in the sky.

“Twilight!”

Twilight Sparkle shot out of bed, her wings flapping wildly in the air. She held a hoof up to her chest, breathing in and out hard. Looking down to Starlight in the bed, her hooves curled around her pultruding belly.

“Starlight? Are you ok?” Twilight lowered down to the floor, looking at her wife with worry.

Starlight opened her eyes and tried to get up. “It’s time.”

Twilight’s eyes shot wide as she grabbed Starlight in her magic and flapped her wings, soaring down the hallways of her castle and out the doors.

Living outside of Ponyville, it took a good while to get to the hospital, even at the speed Twilight was flying. She could hardly see the ground below her, she just hoped no other ponies were out at this hour. They would just be blurs as she flew by anyway.

She finally made it to the hospital, flying in the doors.
“Princess Twilight, what’s wrong?” A desk pony asked.

“Its my wife, she’s in labor!” Twilight almost yelled as she lowered Starlight down onto a nearby gurney gently. “Don’t worry, you’ll do great.”

A nurse pony came down the hallway and grabbed the gurney handles in her magic. “Don’t worry, Princess, we will take good care of her.” She smiled as she walked down the hall.

Twilight folded her wings into her sides and walked over to the waiting area, sitting on one of the chairs, looking down to her hooves.

A few hours had passed, and Twilight was now pacing, her mind a nervous wreck. She had done her share of research on pony pregency and birth. No pony should take more then a couple of hours to give birth! Something had to be wrong!
“Princess Twilight?”
Twilight turned around and saw a light-colored earth pony, he had a cap over his ears and a big smile on his face.

“Is she okay?” Twilight asked.

“They are both just fine, Princess. Would you like to meet your filly? “He asked, lifting his hoof to lead her down the hall.

Twilight’s wings ruffled in excitement as she followed the doctor down the hall, and to the room. The lights were dim, and she could hear the faint coos of the foal. She walked in slowly, and over around the bed to see Starlight laying with a pink blanket. Starlight moved the blanket slightly to reveal a burgundy and bright red mained filly foal, sleeping peacefully.

“She’s a unicorn.” Twilight said with a smile.

“She’s more then that.” Starlight said as she moved the blanket more to show the foal’s tiny wings.
Twilight’s eyes went wide, but she quickly smiled and sat down on her haunches and nuzzled the foal. “Looks like we may need that spell from Sunburst.”

Starlight chuckled and nodded. “Yes, I think so.”
