Her Glowing Womb

4 The Birth

Previous Chapter

Like I said before, it was a six-month pregnancy battle, the heat was so intense it kept melting the ice we could find with the crane built. Her screams were so blood-chilling they had to give up 9 rooms just so every other patent could be comfortable. The last room was filled with various types of drugs to help ease the pain, which made her feel like she was floating through space. She didn't mind though since she knew what would happen next. All she wanted was to meet this child of hers.

Block sat down on a small folding chair beside the bed where her wife Blueprint Brisk lay, holding her hand—trying to give some comfort in the wake of her wife's ever-present screams. Building Block leaned over the bed and looked directly at Blueprint Brisk stomach. It glowed with such intensity that he felt compelled to look away out of fear that he might go blind or worse yet, explode.

"I wish I could take the pain away for you miss Blueprint Brisk , but I can't. Please believe me when I say that I love you and I understand why you need to do this, why WE need this, please survive this ordeal so our little pony can live too."Block said tears forming in his eyes again.
Blueprint Brisk smiled weakly in between screams. "Thank YOU, my sweet husband," she said in various breaths.

"Please just fight! no more talking, just focus on the baby." Block pleaded.

The doctor entered the room with a concerned expression on his face. "Mrs. Blueprint Brisk , your time has come, it's time to deliver your son."

"Doctor, it really is time?" Block asked

Blueprint Brisk screams again with boiling water pouring out of her tummy, the steam rising off from the surface of the liquid.
"Yes, yes it is. You must prepare yourself, dear Mrs. Brisk, there will be many changes ahead for both of you." the doctor said reassuringly.

"Okay then, what do I do?" I ask.

"Well, as soon as he comes out, he'll need all sorts of medical attention, he has been in there in a hot belly for a long time so as soon as he comes out we will need to put the baby in the oven to slowly bring its temperature down. not the best way to cool down the baby but we don't want it to chill quickly either."

"What if it doesn't fit?"

"We will try anyway, once he is cooled down enough we will cloth it like we normally would. Then he will be normal. Now let's hope he stays alive until then."

My wife moans loudly as the doctor holds her hands above her head. He begins pushing hard against her legs, eliciting another scream from her mouth.

Block looked away, he couldn't watch anymore, he needs to concentrate on keeping himself together.
Big Mac grabs him by the shoulder. "Hey man, are you okay? Are you gonna pass out?"

"No, I'm fine... I mean yeah, I guess..."

"Just hang on buddy, we got this."

Starlight enters the room carrying an IV bag full of fluids. "Hey Block and Brisk I'm here, sorry I'm late I got here as fast as I could!"

"Not good, I have never seen anything like this before. How am I supposed to keep myself together watching my wife suffer this much?"

She pats his back gently with a warm smile. "You're doing great Block. Just remember to breathe, and stay calm. We got this. its almost over!"

I nod and try to manage my breathing.

The doctor pushes harder and faster, my wife yelling louder than usual. Her voice carries throughout the hospital, echoing off walls and floors. The sound becomes deafening one after another.

Then a simple baby cry emerges in the place of groanings

It was happening, my wife was giving birth, but the doctor immediately took the baby out of her tummy, there was no grand entrance to the world, only survival and the glow entered the room gathering the mutation required to create a cutie mark which I only saw as it finally died down something blue.

"It's a boy!" said Starlight Glimmer shaking my hand.

"quickly to the oven!" said the doctor as he rushed over to the kitchen with it already set to 120 degrees and promptly put the baby inside. "Now let's get some blankets for your wife!"

they cover her in 21 blankets then the doctor breathes a sigh of relief

"now we wait" he says. "we just got to wait until both of them cool down slowly but surely"

I look at myself in the mirror. My face is pale, my hair messy and my eyes red and watery from crying.

Brisk had done it, my wife did all the work,

We finally had made a family.

I turn around and see Big Mac standing behind me holding my wife's hand.
"Congratulations Blueprint Brisk , your baby boy is going to live and so are you!"
she replies with a snore, for she was fast asleep.

Big Mac turns around and smiles at me. "You can relax now."

I nod and take a deep breath. It feels amazing to know that our son is finally safe and healthy.

"Thank you, Big Mac. I couldn't ask for a better friend" Starlight coughs at this statement. "Oh yeah, thank you too for making all this possible" I go to hug her tightly.

"If you don't mind, could you keep a journal of what your baby will go through for the next few days? I need it for research, especially the part where the baby's cutie mark formed in the womb," said Starlight.

I do not hesitate to comply. If there was a chance in the future to counteract the pain in which Brisk ensued, then they should have that chance. Especially since they would be able to help other mares who may find themselves in similar situations.

"Where should I start? I'm no writer!" I say.

"You don't have to be a good writer, you just have to tell us what happened." She answers.

So thus I am writing about what happened.
(and that's why I'm transcribing Block, thank you)

Days later, the baby foal is pulled out of the oven and my wife returns to normal temperatures. Finally looking at our baby, I describe him as having an orange coat with yellow fuzz, a white underbelly, blue eyes, and a very tiny cutie mark of a blue puzzle piece.

"He's earth pony", says Big Mac.

"Agreed" I reply.

"Are you ready? Block" asks Big Mac.

"Ready for what?" I ask

"To name him. He's your baby after all."

"well...He has a puzzle on his flank so...how about Puzzle Piece?"

" Puzzle Piece? I think that is a very fitting name" Joked Starlight as she hugs me tight.

We both smiled and pat each other's backs and hugged looking at Brisk. It was the beginning of a new adventure.
A journey full of joy, love, happiness, and tears. All of these emotions cause one thing: Life. Which was in my son.
