Author's Note:This is a Time Skip ahead, a couple of months after Princess Cadence gives birth to her and Shining Armor's foal. This is by no means canon to the show, and I simply did this for fun.

This is a continuation of what happens shortly after Princess Cadence and Shining Armor give the good news about their oncoming foal. When Cadence and Shining Armor share the good news everypony is happy. And things go smoothly for the next eleven months leading up to delivery. However all is not as it seems when a looming shadow sets it's sights on what could be it's only change to freedom.
