Trixie and Abyss had been walking for about an hour. "Are you sure it's this way?" Trixie asked exhausted from walking and nursing. "Yeah, as soon as we get to a bridge the castle's right across it." Abyss said still leading the way. After about ten minutes of silence Abyss spoke up again. "Alright now that we're this close I need to tell you a few things." "Like what?" Trixie asked. "Alright when we get there, don't speak to anypony, they are very important and do not take kindly to others." "Alright, anything else?" Trixie asked back. "Oh yeah I almost forgot." Abyss said reaching into his bag. He pulled out a pearly white stone attached to a small metal chain. He handed it to her and told that it was a moon stone and that the ritual couldn't be completed if Angel Cake wasn't wearing it. Trixie slipped it over the little filly's neck and let her resume suckling. "My Celestia, this thing does not stop eating," Trixie more or less screamed. After about two straight hours of feeding she was starting to feel pain. "Don't worry we're almost there," Abyss said getting her to shut up. After about another 20 minutes of walking they reached a bridge. Across the bridge was the castle where Twilight and her friend first fought Nightmare Moon. The three crossed knowing that the walking was finally over.
Along the trail leading up to the castle, a large group of ponies were hiking though the forest. Twilight all of a sudden had a skip in her step as she walked. Red Dawn was starting to wonder why she was being so rambunctious. Pinkie and Rainbow Dash on the other hand were exact opposite. The thought of their baby becoming the most evil pony rocked them to their cores. Pinkie's hair had fallen into its flat straight look signified the level of depression that she was at. Rainbow Dash showed her depression by walking; she had no urge to fly. "Man I never anypony so sad in ma life," Applejack whispered to Rarity as they walked behind them. Pinkie and Rainbow Dash heard the them but were too locked in their own sadness to care. "Seriously Applejack be a little more considerate to everypony, can't you see they're obviously grieving." Rarity said a little loud as to scold her partner. The pink earth pony had heard this was inches away from snapping on everypony. Then out of the corner of her eyes she saw Twilight skipping as she walked. Pinkie wasn't dumb, she knew why Twilight was so happy, but hated that she could be so happy while they weren't even sure if they would ever see their foal again. "Look at her," Pinkie said in her meanest voice to Rainbow Dash. "What do you mean?" Rainbow Dash asked. Pinkie was steaming now; she totally lost it and went all out in front of everypony. She ran up and got in Twilight's face. "Why are you doing this to us?" Pinkie yelled. "What did I do?" Twilight retorted, unsure of what Pinkie was talking about. "You know what I mean, how come you get to have a foal, when ours is gone." Pinkie said starting to cry. Twilight was vexed with anger as well as sympathy. She should have known better than to try and get her pregnancy past Pinkie. She knew that this whole thing was tearing the two apart, but that was no reason for her to be acting the way she was." Everypony was staring at them, Twilight started to rub her belly, unsure of what to say next. She looked over to Red Dawn and saw how horrified he looked. She knew that he had heard the gist of what Pinkie had said. He slowly walked over to her and laid her on the ground. He laid down next to her as every other pony had walked away as to give the two some room to talk. "Why didn't you tell me," he said in a stern voice. "I don't know, because I thought something like this was going to happen." She said starting to tear up. The cheerfulness had know been replaced with sadness. "Please don't cry," he said as started to rub her belly. Her crying started to subside after he had got her calmed down. "Please forgive me," she pleaded. "Oh Twilight I do honest," He said as he pulled her into a hug. After breaking it the two got up and returned to the others. "Nopony said anything as they made their way back into the group. During this time, Pinkie had somewhat calmed down from her fit of rage. "Where do you think this castle is?" Asked Fluttershy as they all continued to walk. "Probably at the castle where we defeated Nightmare Moon." Rarity returned. Red Dawn and Twilight stayed behind the main group as they talked amongst each other. "So… how far along are you?" Red Dawn asked nervously as he stared at her belly. She could tell how nervous he was he heard it in his voice. She knew that she had to say something. "Are you upset," She asked. "Well I defiantly wasn't expecting," this he said somewhat blatant. "Well you knew that it was going to happen at sometime or another." Twilight said back to him. "Yeah but I'm just not ready to dad," He remarked. "And you think that I'm not ready, I have to give birth and carry it." Twilight said back with a little anger in his voice. Hearing this made him stop talking, as did she. The two walked in silence for a few minutes. After getting up the courage Red Dawn spoke up. "So how far along are you?" He asked once again. "Four months," Twilight said getting right to the point. He suddenly stopped walking and called out to her. "Twilight please come here." She continued to walk. The others had watched this and slowed their pace as to see what was going to happen. Twilight had thought to herself, "Why should I give him the satisfaction, he got me pregnant and know he to scared to ever to say anything. "Sparkles please come back," He yelled. That confused her deeply. "Why would he say that, he knew it turned her on when he said it but why now, she was the total opposite of turned on right now. "I can't believe I'm doing this," she thought as she turned around to talk to him. Noticing that it worked, Red Dawn made his way up to her. He thought to himself, what could he say that was going to fix everything. "Listen Twilight, I'm sorry I guess I just was nervous, I mean this is going to change everything like I'm going to have to resign from the Wonderbolts and we're gonna have to move into a bigger house." He said trying to sound as sorry as he could. "This was what she wanted to hear," She couldn't believe it but his apology worked. He walked up and kissed her while he rubbed her belly. He broke the kiss when he felt a slight motion from under his hooves. Twilight backed up as for the two of them to get a better view. They waited for a few moments when a small bump appeared from Twilight purple belly. Twilight slightly giggled as the strange sensation rushed over her body. Red Dawn slightly blushed as he felt the mass on the other side of Twilight's belly. "That really our foal in there isn't it?" Red Dawn said as he continued to feel for the unborn foal. "Twilight just nodded as too started to feel for the unborn foal." Rarity and Applejack were watching them the whole time. "How beautiful is that," Rarity said holding on to Applejack's neck. "It sure is a sight to she but I'ma thinkin be better get'a going unless we wanna be livin' in eternal night." Applejack said as started to walk toward Twilight and Red Dawn. "Come on love birds, we gotta get'a going." Applejack said turning away. "Alright let's go." Red Dawn said helping Twilight to her hooves.
At the castle.
"Bring the young one to my," an old pony with a scratchy voice. Abyss walked up to him and presented Angle Cake. "Ah excellent," The elder pony said taking the young filly and walking her into a chalk drawn circle. He placed her in the middle and backed out. "Now what," Trixie whispered to Abyss. "We wait till Midnight and then the resurrection will begin."
The group of ponies had made their way to the bridge. "Look there's the castle," Fluttershy said beginning to walk across. Pinkie and Rainbow Dash had taken the lead as they made their way toward the castle doors. As soon as they were all across they very carefully made their way though the door. "Woah," Big Macintosh said as they looked into the room. Inside was about four cultists along with Trixie and Abyss. They were all gathered around Angel Cake. The eldest began a strange chant, and a sudden ray of blue light shown brightly on Angel Cake. They looked up to a window to see the full moon almost reaching its full point. "It's about to happen," Pinkie said etching her way toward the alter. "Wait, Pinkie we're not ready to charge yet." Twilight said still getting into position. All at once Pinkie bolted toward them soon followed by Rainbow Dash who flew right behind her. "AAAGGGGGHHHHH," they both screamed as they ran toward their foal. The elder stopped his chant upon hearing them. Pinkie tackled the nearest cultist causing the other two as well as Trixie and Abyss to flee. The elder tried to finish the incantation, but was suddenly stopped when Rainbow Dash flew into him at such speeds that it had shattered his back, killing him instantly. As soon as it was clear the other ponies joined them. The others were in disbelief as they had just come to terms that Pinkie and Rainbow Dash had easily saved their foal from the cultist. Pinkie ran to the center of the alter and grabbed Angel Cake. She brought her close and had no intention of letting go. Rainbow Dash joined them in a loving hug. While Angel Cake didn't say anything, she knew that she was in the mothers' arms. Every other pony grabbed a hold of their lover and held them close. "That was the most beautiful thing I've ever saw." Fluttershy said. "EYUUUP" Big Macintosh said. Suddenly there was the clutter of hoof-beats from behind them. They all looked back in time to see Abyss running at Twilight with a knife. Instinctively, Red Dawn jumped in front of her. Abyss didn't hesitate in the slightest. He plunged the knife deep into his chest and knocked him to the ground. "AAAWWWW" Red Dawn screamed as Abyss pulled the knife rather jaggedly from his chest. "Why can't you all just mind your own fucking business?" Abyss said as he stepped with great force on Red Dawn's wings, breaking them. Red Dawn screamed again. He looked up and saw that Abyss was readying to strike another pony, the nearest to him being Twilight who was now crying uncontrollably. Abyss was about to strike. Mustering all of his strength, Red Dawn pushed himself off the ground and into Abyss. The two flew out a window that shattered as the made their way through it. The two were still holding each other even as they went over a cliff. While free falling, Red Dawn pushed himself away from Abyss. "AAAHHHH" Abyss screamed but was suddenly silenced as he made contact with a lower ledge of the cliff they were falling from. Seeing that Abyss was no more, Red Dawn tried to pull his wings out. He then remembered that they were shattered. Even though he had killed Abyss, it was Abyss that won. In breaking Red Dawn's wings he sealed his doom, ultimately taking a husband from a wife and the father from an unborn foal. As he neared the ground he whispered to himself, "I love you Twilight and I know you'll make a great mother, just remember me." In another corner of his mind he heard, "I will, goodbye." He smiled and then died.
Back in the castle the other ponies had all gathered around Twilight trying to comfort her. "Twilight I'm so sorry," Pinkie said holding her close. "It's okay, I got to say goodbye before he died and I'll still have his foal and while it's not him it's apart of him and apart of me and I know that the foal will always carry apart of him within their body." Twilight said before passing out. All the others were now crying as the loaded Twilight up and began to walk toward Ponyville.
The End.
