“You do not half to stay here” he softly pulled the wires from her as he disappeared from the room. He reappeared in the basement of Twilight’s treehouse “Now let's see” he moved his tail as he left her on the carpet. Selene looked up towards him confused at what he had planned. He snapped his fingers as the floor became cave-like. He looked around and noticed the floor was mostly soft spongey grass allowing her to relax easily. He made a small water pool for her to relax in before moving to the walls and ceiling. He changed them into rock-like walls before creating a large bed for her to rest on. He also added a misting system and a vent to keep the place wet and the surrounding library water-free. Discord moved towards Selene as he laid her on the bed before patting it slowly.

“Here you go your own little cave” he smiled as her ears went up. Opening her eyes she noticing grey and that was it. But her fins twitched as she felt something moving around her.

“Skelly is here” she smiled as Discord looked towards her with a skeptical glance. His eyes moved from Selene noticing the shadows were shifting as red dots were staring directly at him. He shivered a bit as he watched the shadow move from directly in front of him.

“Does this Skelly know shadow magic?”

“She is all shadow magic.” Selene closed her eyes as Discord let out a small epp before disappearing. Selene felt his magic as she felt another wave of warm magic filling the area. She caught the sound of hooves moving towards the area.

“Twi I think Discord used his magic on your basement” Applejack’s voice spoke up causing Selene to lift her head.

“Where did that yellow belly pufferfish go” Kibby came in growling causing the others to stare at her. Her fins were twitching as she was showing her teeth. Selene felt the energy coming from her which caused her to stand up with her fins out and open. She had her teeth showing causing Celestia and Luna to stare at the merpony.

“What is going on?” Luna spoke up as Skelly pulled herself out of the shadows.

“Selene thinks we are going to take the cave from her” once she spoke that Kibby closed her fins as she sighed.

“This is the closes thing to a cave” Kibby rubbed her head as Celestia looked down towards the healer.

“I thought she needed to stay in a hospital”

“That is where I would like her to be. You see she won’t be able to see for a while. Her body is redirecting energy from her eyes and her legs to the kids. At this point a merpony will go and stay in the cave while the husband is the one to bring them food. I wanted her to stay in the hospital as it has round the clock care and I can keep an eye on her.” Kibby crossed her hooves as Selene laid down on the bed her fins were twitching. Twilight looked towards Spike.

“Spike”

“Yes Twilight” he looked up towards her.

“For the rest of the months you do not half to clean or reorganize the library. If you can make sure Selene has food and water down here” she looked towards the dragon.

“I will arrange for some nurses to be transferred to Ponyvile to come and help. I also want Skelly to find Discord so I can give him a piece of my mind” she growled as she left the room. Selene had her eyes closed but her ears were twitching while listening to the others in the room. Her ears stopped twitching when the sound of hooves were moving as she heard Kibby’s voice through the walls. She felt the uneasy feeling of Discord’s magic causing her to look over to her right. Discord appeared into the room as the others left.

“I almost dodged an arrow there” he snickered a bit as Selene looked up towards him.

“You will have to face them sooner or later”

“I will have to explain this to Fluttershy” he tapped his chin as Selene laid her head down.

“Why not appear at the house as you use to be? Take her out” Selene waved her hoof as Discord smiled.

“Great Idea” he disappeared from the room leaving Selene alone. The cave had no windows so she couldn’t tell when day or night passed. She loved it when Spike came to visit her. It was something to break up the beardom. He would sit in front of her getting ideas of what he should buy or make for Rarity.

“How about a necklace?” his tail was swaying as he was going over a magazine.

“From the sound of it she will love anything Spike. Why not get her something she doesn’t have” Selene was leaning down poking at the hay fries that was laid out for her.

“That’s the thing I don’t know what she has!” Spike tossed the magazine down on the floor causing the light thud sound ring out.

“Spike she missing one thing…a Mate. Why not go and be her mate?”

“Are you telling me to do what you and Twilight did? Go and knock her up?” he had his claws on his shoulders as Selene looked at him. Her eyes were clouded as she blinked slowly.

“Spike I mean go a ask her to be a….what do you do before mating?”

“Coltfriend?”

“Yeah! Go and ask her out. Take her on a nice date and ask her” Selene smiled as she looked towards him. She leaned down and picked up a hayfry in her mouth.

“That sounds like a bad idea. I don’t even have the bits to take her out” Spike crossed his arms as Selene looked towards him despite not being able to see him.

“Go find Ra. He and Za carry all my bits. Tell him what you want to do. Then go to Krill he might know a nice restaurant in Canterlot that will be right for the evening. Besides why are you so hell-bent on finding a gift? Is her birthday coming up?” Selene moved her hoof around trying to find the glass with water.

“What no…Hearth warming eve is coming up and I want to get her something” he smiled as Selene looked towards him.

“Hearth warming eve? What does that have to do with gifts?”

“What you don’t know about hearth warming eve?”

“Sorry but I think Fluttershy said that was the night of the winter star” she smiled as Spike nodded.

“It is. Princess Luna always has a winter festival for it since she got back. But hearth warming eve is a time you hand out presents to keep the love and friendship going”

“Spike…I have never celebrated this holiday plus it's my birthday and its never been a nice one. Ask Ra and Za” she found the glass and moved her head down taking a sip out of it. She noticed Spike grew silent causing her to lift her head.

“Spike?”

“I’m still here…if it's your birthday you should have a party”

“I can’t see plus I am used to not having one” she waved her hoof towards him.

“That’s not right” he glanced towards his claws “What do you want as a present” that causes her to freeze in place. She looked towards him a bit.

“Nothing”

“No you deserve something” his eyes lit up as Selene leaned down towards the plate.

“You will keep hounding me if I don’t tell you?” her eyes moved towards him.

“Yes”

“Then go ask Rarity out and take her somewhere nice” she had a smile as Spike huffed. As he crosses his claws again.

“fine” he kicked a small rock as Selene laid out on her side. Her fins were twitching. Spike picked up the magazine he threw down brushing it off.

“So Ra?”

“Yes” she smiled as she heard his claws hit the floor. She rolled her eyes as she laid herself out again. Her tail twitched as she laid on the bed silently. Getting bored of the bed she moved towards the small pool resting her tail into the water causing her to sigh happily. This routine would happen for a few more days, nights maybe. Selene lost count of the days as Twilight would visit when she could as well as the others. She was tired of not seeing anything as it was getting board having everything described to her. One afternoon she grew tired of lying in the bed and Spike hadn’t visited her during the time she was up. Placing her nose to the floor she followed the trail towards a set of stairs. Opening her eyes she noticed it was dark as she placed a hoof in front of her. Feeling the first stair she climbed them slowly her fins were twitching as she was breathing heavily. Her nose pressed up against the door causing her to feel the cold wind blowing from the crack. Reaching up she turned the knob allowing it to creak open. Poking her head out she could feel the cold winter throughout the library. It was dark save for the windows. Her heart was pounding as she moved towards the lowest window resting her head on the seal. All she could see was white. She placed her hoof on the window clearing away from the fog and noticed it was snowing outside and the world was covered in snow. Glancing behind her she spoke up “Spike? Twilight?” her fins twitched. She felt a sharp pain in her back causing her to groan. Looking towards her tail she noticed something was dripping down her tail and onto the floor. Her eyes widen.

“Oh no” She tried to move but her body wouldn’t let her. She laid herself out as she continued to feel the sharp pain in her side causing her to moan a bit. Her breathing started to labor as she felt the pain ran up her back towards her stomach. She let out another groan as she heard the floor above her. She heard the clicking of talons against the wood.

“Hello?” Spike’s voice rang out in the darkness.

“Spike…is…that you” Selene was huffing as the dragon came down rubbing his eyes.

“Selene” he blinked as he noticed the merpony holding her stomach “I’m getting Twilight” he turned and ran back upstairs dropping his blanket. Selene was still huffing at the moment. She let out another low groan as she felt something weird with her tail.

“Star help!” Selene cried as she moved towards a carpet laying on her side.

“Breath Selene”

“I’m scared!”

“I know just breath” she spoke softly as Selene was groaning. Her ears caught the sound of crashing and running. Twilight bolted down the stairs as she heard the loud groaning from Selene. She stopped at the top of the stairs as she heard a small cry. Selene was panting heavily as she was standing over a small pony. Turning the lights on Spike and Twilight walked into the room noticing the small pony was a merpony. She was purple with a dark blue tail and purple fins. She had white and light blue splotches on her coat. Her mane was lavender color with a pink and light blue stripe running through it. Selene was using her tongue to clean her gills and her fur.

“Spike send a letter and get towels now!” Twilight nudged him sending him running. Twilight walked downstairs causing Selene to look up at her. The purple unicorn looked towards her as Selene had tears in her eyes as she looked up towards Twilight.

“Help” she leaned forwards as she placed her head on Twilight’s shoulder. Spike ran back with a large towel in his claws. Twilight laid Selene down on the carpet as she picked up the small merpony. She placed them in the towel before moving to the tank. Spike watched as the young merpony cry in his claws. Selene was panting as she let out another groan causing Spike to jump. She pulled her tail around as she was panting and huffing. Spike stood there waiting as Za moved from the tank.

“Za we need nurse Red Heart” Spike called out as the merpony looked towards the window noticing the snow covering the ground. She took a deep breath in as she bolted for the door. Selene watched as her guard ran out into the snow shaking. Twilight and Ra moved from the tank stopping short as the noticed the door was open.

“Where did Za go?” Ra looked towards Spike.

“She went to fetch Nurse Red Heart” his face was shocked as Twilight rolled her eyes. She used her magic to teleport out of the room leaving a dragon and two confused merponies. Selene let out another groan as Twilight appeared with a white unicorn mare with a pastel pink mane and tail beside her.

“Where is Za?”

“She back at the hospital warming up” Twilight spoke up as the mare walked over to Selene.

“I need to know where your” she was glancing over Selene causing her to point towards Twilight. Ra looked towards Twilight as he was blushing a bit.

“You're going to need to show her where her pussy is” He was shaking a bit as Twilight nodded. She walked over to Selene and pulled open her slit carefully allowing Nurse Red Heart to appear down. Her eyes caught the sight of a horn caught on her inner folds.

“Okay breath and do not push till I say so” Red heart placed her back down as Selene looked up towards them. Princess Celestia popped in wearing an eye mask over one eye as her wing held onto a pillow. Her mane was all over the place causing Spike to chuckle a bit.

“Okay push” Red Heart spoke softly as Selene let out another groan. She was panting her face was red and flushed.

“That’s it nice and slow” Red heart was using her magic to help guide the small pony out of Selene as she pushed. Selene gave one last push and gave birth to a small unicorn colt. He was all white except for the purple and blue fins resting on his back. Nurse Red heart handed the small unicorn to Selene as she took care of the umbilical cord. Selene used her tongue to clean him and she noticed he had gills on the back of his neck. His mane matched his sisters as his coat sported light blue and light pink splotches on his coat. He moved his hooves as he let out a small wine.

“Once this storm ends I need to get you and the foals to the hospital” Nurse Red Heart spoke up.

“They are small” Spike spoke up as Selene was lying on her back huffing.

“She gave birth a month early” Twilight moved from her spot. Hearing the words Twilight spoke up Nurse Red Heart looked up at the princess.

“Princess if these twins are born a month early. I need to get them to the hospital so the doctors and the nurses from Canterlot can look over them” he moving her hooves as Celestia nodded.

“Gather around” she smiled as she pulled the ponies together. Twilight used her magic to shut the door and lock the treehouse up. Celestia pulled them in and used her magic to teleport them all to the hospital. As they teleported into the main room Za was lying on the floor with a heating pad and warm water bottles surrounding her. She was huffing as she was trying to warm up. Nurse Red Heart looked towards the doctors and started to yell orders causing the twins to cry. Selene was placed on a gurney and wheeled off to a room while the twins were moved to another room to be looked at. Twilight looked up towards Princess Celestia giggling a bit as her mane looked like a ball of cotton candy. She glanced down towards her student as she noticed Twilight was staring into a wall.

“Why don’t we go see your children” Celestia smiled as Twilight nodded slowly. She got to her hooves as she moved along the hall towards a room in the back. The twins were hooked up to different heart monitors both of them crying. As they were watching as a large growl caused the hospital to go quiet. Twilight glanced towards the door as Selene was on her hooves huffing as she let out a growl. Her teeth were showing as she moved towards the twins. Celestia stood up as Selene slid under her. She the nurses started to pull her back causing her to knock them down with her tail as she pulled the colt from his crib. She then moved to the filly laying on her side. Both of the twins calmed down before yawning as she placed her tail around them. Nurse Red Heart ran into the room sporting a bruise on her leg. The doctors followed with different bruises.

“Is she”

“In the crib. It seems we shouldn’t separate them” Celestia looked towards Selene as she had her fin resting over the twins. Her eyes closed as she rested her head on her hooves. Twilight walked towards the crib causing Selene to lift her head as she blinked towards the purple unicorn. She lowered the side as she leaned in causing her to raise her fin.

“We need to let the doctors look over them” her voice was soft as Selene leaned in and kissed her. Her ears went back as she nuzzled her. She slipped from the bed leaving the twins to rest silently. Twilight pulled her into a hug noticing Selene was shaking.

“Selene you're shaking” Twilight noticed Selene was leaning her head on Twilight’s shoulder her eyes were closed “Selene” Twilight poked the merpony causing her to fall to her side. Twilight caught Selene causing the nurses to move in.

“I guess we will keep her in the same room” Nurse Red Heart sighed as she moved over to the merpony. They placed Selene on a bed in the room before hooking her up to some more heart monitors and iv. Some of the other nurses moved towards the twins fixing them up. Celestia had pulled the eye mask off fixing her mane. Twilight stayed still as she glanced down towards the floor.

“Twilight walk with me” Celestia held her wing out towards her student.
