It was a warm and uneventful evening in Ponyville. Everypony in town were busy attending their regular life with not much change. And at that time, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle each received a note saying “Meet you at the tree house. Code 5” After reading this they left everything they were doing and ran to the meeting spot. The Cutie Mark Crusaders have established a set of codes to call for help in case of emergency. For example:
Code 1 - Small emergencies, such as breaking one of Granny Smith’s jam jars.
Code 2 - Something they should still worry about. Like arriving home late.
Code 3 - School related emergencies. Forgetting a homework, or class project and it’s due date is close (Scootaloo uses this one the most)
Code 4 - Something big. Like messing one of Rarity’s fabric or stain Applejack’s hat with zap apple jam.
Code 5 - MY LIFE IS RUINED!
They arrived at the same time at the treehouse and walked near the door. From inside the house they could hear the sound of somepony clopping as if they were walking around the place non stop, also a soft voice almost muttering “Oh no” over and over. With caution, they opened the door and entered the place and saw Apple Bloom walking in circles.
“Hey Apple Bloom” Greeted Scootaloo.
The earth pony turned and saw her friends standing by the door “Oh! Hey guys, wh-what’s up?” She was shaking and sweating uncontrollably “A-Ah’, why don’t you sit? Or stay there, or get here, or…”
“Are you okay?” Asked Sweetie Belle
“Yes… No… Ah’ don’t know”
They entered the clubhouse and closed the door. They approached their friend and tried to calm her down “Hey, what’s wrong?” The winged pony asked.
“P-Please… Please promise me you won’t tell any pony. NO PONY MUST KNOW!”
Now they were sure something was very bad. And just as Apple Bloom asked they promise not to tell. But this didn’t help much.
Applebloom opened her mouth and tried to speak “AH… Ah’...” She couldn’t do it. Her heart was pumping like crazy, she was shaking on the spot, her knees couldn’t stand her, and she felt like she was going to faint. Her friends took her to her chair and in order to make things easier they asked no further about the topic hoping in that way Applebloom wouldfeel better.
After some time Applebloom took every drop of courage in her and stepped forward, she was going to tell her friends what she needed.
“Okay guys, I’ll tell ya. But you gotta promise you won’t say a word to no pony”
They sighted in annoyance because they have gone through that already, but if they were going to help her friend they will do it again only this time they made it official with a Pinkie Promise “Cross my heart, and hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye”
Applebloom took a deep breath and closed her eyes, she thought if she didn’t see them it would be better. Finally she spoke “Girls… Ah’ … Ah’… Ah’m pregnant!”
Her friends quickly giggled after hearing that, but when they saw how serious she was looking and how she was at the border of crying their smiles disappeared.
“Wait what?!” Sweetie Belle couldn’t believe it.
“Hold on, are you serious?!” Asked Scootaloo
“Yes, Ah am”
Sweetie Belle was still in shock “B-but how?!”
“Sweetie Belle! I think we don’t need to know that” Replied Scootaloo “But are you completely sure, Apple Bloom?”
“Yes, Ah checked and checked and Ah’m positive. Ah’m preganant”
“Wait, you checked?” Scootaloo asked
Applebloom laid on the ground and curled herself into a tiny ball “Oooh what am Ah going to do? What will Granny say? And Big Mac, and… Applejack is gonna kill me!”
Applebloom cried, tears fell from her eyes to her cheeks like a river. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle could do nothing, but hug her and try to make her feel better. But the unicorn had a questions she could not ignore anymore “And, who is the father?”
This time Scootaloo didn’t stop her, it was the same question it was lingering in her head too. Applebloom cleaned her tears and with sobs she answer “It-It It’s Spike”
“Spike?!” Both Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle shouted. Applebloom just nodded and hid her face between her hooves.
“Okay, just hold on. How can a dragon and a pony -” Before the unicorn could finish her sentence she was slap by one of the pegasus wing. There were many questions on their heads, but it was clearly not the moment to ask any of them.
Applebloom had finally confessed what she had to her friends, but instead of feeling better she felt worse than ever. She couldn’t stop crying even if at this point both her eyes and stomach hurt for all the tears she shed before. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle sat right next to her and hugged her, but nothing seemed to make things better. They felt useless, their best friend was inconsolable and they could do nothing to change it. They tried thinking of something to cheer her up, but nothing felt appropriate for that moment.
Suddenly Scootaloo broke the crying “Come on, Apple Bloom. It will be alright”
“How can you be so sure?!” Yelled the earth pony.
“Because your family loves you no matter what. Yeah, they will be mad… Really mad, but they will be there for you… And your baby”
Apple Bloom eyes stopped tearing, but she couldn’t stop sobbing. When Sweetie Belle noticed this, she decided to intervene too “You don’t have to tell them right now. You should wait and tell them when you feel ready”
Little by little the little pony started to recover her usual color, and by cleaning up her tears she could control herself once again. After a couple of minutes she started to breath normally “Yeah, yer might be right”
“Does Spike know?” Sweetie Belle asked. This time she wasn’t penalized for that. Apple Bloom shook her head implying she hasn’t tell the dragon yet “I think you should, I mean he is the father and he has to take responsibility too”
“Yeah, but you don’t have to do it alone. We can be there with you if you want” The pegasus added.
“Thanks gals. You are the best” Apple Bloom hugged her friends
They looked outside and noticed that the sun had set, and it was time to departure “Oh no, I gotta run, Rarity will totally ground me if I get home late again”
“See you tomorrow at Pinkie’s?” Asked Scootaloo.
“Fo’sho, see you there”
They said goodbye and the trio split. Apple Bloom walked back to her house, which didn’t take her more than 5 minutes considering the clubhouse was in Sweet Apple Acres, but when she saw her house she stopped. She stared at the red building and she rubbed her belly thinking about how much things will change when the little pony growing inside her arrives Will they forgive me? She wondered, but then she heard a yell calling her
“There you are silly filly. We were worried about ya” It was her sister Applejack
“You were?”
“Of course! I don’t know what would we do without ya, specially me. Now, come on in, Granny made caramel apples”
And for the first time in the day the little filly smiled Maybe my friends are right She remember how much her family loves her and how much she loves them. There will be the time for her to tell them about her baby, but tonight she had some caramel apples to enjoy.
Apple Bloom is pregnant when she is just a filly O_O well that not good at all and it is going to change Apple Bloom and Spike life forever plus a lot of other stuff
WOAH.
I love how they reacted. (Sweetie!) Apple Bloom WHY?
Wait, not aged up?
That reaction and how everything panned was amazing. I was actually scared to read this at first (seeing how it looked like it'll turn out. Ya know-crack fic) but I was really happy I had. It was great, especially how everyone reacted. (Sweetie reminds me of that one character in every story) I love the dialogue as well. I seriously can't wait to see Spike's reaction and multiple pairings.
4328708 Fillies these days, am i right?
4328749 Indeed
Overall, I like how this story has begun. Although, it started off a little fast, and the dialogue exchanges were a little hard to focus on with the missing punctuations and such.
However, you get an upvote from me, but might I suggest getting an editor to help you with those errors? I'll gladly offer my assistance, if you wish.
4328766 yeah you are right
4328765 I'm glad you liked it :twilightsmile. The story won't be very long, but I hope you like what I have planned
4328797 I'm sure I'll like it!
4328772 Yeah, I don't have prereaders nor editors. And well... English isn't really my first language But I'll try harder to make it better Thanks
O_o
I'm intrigued. Do continue.
Interesting opener. First chapter is a little short but doesn't feel too rushed, even if everyone seems rather calm given the earth shattering revelation. I have a couple of theories on where this could be going already, most of which would eventually merit a comedy tag along with SOL. Either way, you have my attention.
Interesting idea. It's not terrible, but you're missing punctuation marks on almost every quotation. Also, at one point you put "Sweetie Belle y Scootaloo." Haha, Spanish much?
4329148 Well, that was embarrassing Yeah, I'm not really used to write stories in English, but I'm doing my best.
4329142 I think you will find the ending, interesting
Good story, have a thumbs up and a smile also
I like where this is headed!
Although, I would definitely agree with taking up 'Dont Look At My Name Bro' 's offer to grab an editor. He's a part of the editing group "The Proofreader Group", and it's probable that you're only a single time zone apart. Here is a link to his profile.
Good luck with your writing!
Thumb up and follow.
4329188 That's fine. You'll get better with practice.
Interesting story. Keep it up.
MOAR!
Really, Spike? I expected you to be more responsible than this.
Oh fanfiction, what would I do without you?
Interesting, I like the approach of starting the story as late as you did.
It's a bit wooden in places. Might even call it surreal at times.
I'm faving to see where you take this. Pleas ask yourself the "Why" behind how ponies react to her being pregnant. Why would AJ be mad? Because AB was reckless and engaged in unprotected sex, or because she broke a social taboo? Those are very different. One is "I taught you better, condoms are cheap, you're too young to get pregnant," because it might be dangerous to her health. The other is shame based. Then you have to ask where did the shame come from? Shoving western morality onto ponies without context is lazy.
Keep writing, looking forward ti the next chapter.
Excellent start

I shall keep an eye on this story.

In his defense, there's no logical way a reptile and mammal should be able to reproduce together.
He just didn't realize how magic beats logic over the head with a crowbar and leaves it bleeding in the moonlight.

"There's no logical explanation for this! It's just not possible!" said the fire breathing dragon taking another bite out of a perfect sapphire.
Just thought of something, how do we really know she is prego. I mean since their age isn't said in the story I can only assume they are still young so for all we know they kissed or coped a field off each other and now she thinks she is prego. I mean we don't know any details (and not not that kind of details lol) As we said we have to wait and see when she tells Spike and the family.
Well, Scootaloo that is a good question to be asking... Although she could probably make a pregnancy test potion with her alchemy training. It would be interesting if they had a stasis spell for unborn fetuses, so she could grow up and then have it years later. A little too Deus ex machina though so there would be no point to the story.
hmmmm...you have caught me attention.
I'm always on the look out for more Spike/Apple bloom ships, I will see how this develops before I say anything more.
Foalcon pregnancy?
I like this.
4329188 For writing a story this popular in a language you weren't born into, you did pretty freakin' amazing. good work
4329938 Well-its all magic. I mean:how many times have there been cases where dragons and Ponies could have children? I mean-they are two very different species.
Where's the multiple thumbs up button when you need it??!!!!! Never thought to ship it......till now.

I wasn't talking about genetic compitability. I meant that I expected Spike to realize that they were a bit young for a sexual relationship in the first place and that they probably shouldn't rush into things. I mean, they apparently weren't even openly dating. Unless Apple Bloom was really insistant and very convincing, I'm just not sure I see him sleeping with such a young filly.
And besides, the fact that they probably didn't know wether or not this could happen is just another reason to be careful. Unlike us, they live in a world were nonsensical things happen all the time.
4332068 Well I always figured he was younger than his actual age. I mean-he's a baby dragon. I just figure he's her age mentally. Thats why he's still a chilf in the adults' eyes.Plus- even in their world, its unknown. (Sweetie says this before she gets hit)
4332611 Thats actually just about correct. Remember, twilight hatched him when she was a filly so he is at most about 5 to 8 years younger than her.
4332627 But he also doesn't grow much. Greed makes them grow faster. Dragon's are greedy. But would this halt things if he wasn't greedy? Thats why I'm assuming he's even younger than estimated-mentally anyway.
4332689 Not really, it is the size of their hoard that makes them grow, a greed growth is when they start their hoard and don't stop collecting, thus becoming a feral dragon. If he were to have build his hoard up at a steady pace from when he was even younger then he should technically be the same size as garble and of somewhat similar mentality, which he has. Spike does think like a teenager but only as one of younger age than say a 16 year old, spike would most likely be around 13 or 14 in age while twilight is about 18 to 19.
4332784 I don't know if she even if 19. We don't really know any age. Heck, it seems like they are aged (still foalcon however) up in this anyway. (Being that Scootaloo effectively hit Sweetie when her wings are not that big in canon.) I doubt that she would be able to conceive if she wasn't older than her age. (Though-it would be odd since none have their cutie marks yet)Or, better yet, sustain it because it would effectively kill her. Of course-the exception is still there (Dr.Phil showed a pregnant 11 year old) but AB's older (unless you discredit Equestria Girls) than that.
Then again, I really doubt that Spike has a horde of anything. If he was, then he wasn't trained how to control it properly, which again shows that he probably didn't build to be where he is at.
Spike finally got laid! Hell yeah!!!
4329188 You speak spanish?
What the...I...you have my attention I think
4332829
And that´s why society must put sex education in the schools.
HEY WAIT WHAT.
She's too young. Too freakin' young, man.
There are some places even I dare not tread, and fillies getting pregnant is one of those places.
You won't get a downvote from me because I use the thumbs system for its intended purpose--that is, to critique based on how a story is written, not what a story is about--but I very strongly dislike your story premise. Why couldn't you have told the same story with an older pony? Maybe I'd have wanted to read it then.
4333277 True.
