It was so close to time for her to foal. While in the Threshold her contractions had started and progressively gotten worse over the next few days. What once was mild and easy waves now slammed into her body in painful and sharp jagged lunges. She couldn’t wait anymore. She had held off the inevitable for too long due to stress as it was and in her fragile condition, she might have made it worse by flying but that was no option to her today. No. She was in far too much pain.

Please wait baby. She begged softly. She had slipped from Temps gaze to try to find a place of quit to birth as she didn’t know the stud well enough although he seemed kind, it was like most mares to step away from the herd to deliver. Grunting with heavy breaths she pushed on. She felt like her heart was going to explode but she made it to a small, semi secluded area where she dropped to her knees and softly positioned her wings in a way that let her lay on her side. She felt so vulnerable and alone. Immediately she felt like she had made a mistake by not alerting somewhere to where she was going... but it was far too late for that.

Pain shot through her body in ragged waves that were as unforgiving as the ocean beating the coast. She let out a soft, painful cry as she pushed for the first time. Her thick nape was stretched out towards the small pond in front of her as she pushed in the shade of the towering tree. Breathing hard was an understatement at this time, she was panting furiously and bearing down with all her strength... but she felt something wasn’t right. She was getting too tired, too fast. Maybe it was the combination of running from her recent abuse, not eating enough and just the overall stress of not getting a good night’s sleep from the reoccurring night terrors that she had yet to work out. She pushed again, crying out louder as she felt the foal move further down and poke from her lady parts. Was he breach?! This was her first time giving birth, aside from the small foal that slid out without much pain earlier in this pregnancy (his twin). She had never experienced this level of pain in her life....


Deep down however, she knew she was in trouble. She knew she didn’t have the energy to continue this. She had tried so hard to make sure her body was well taken care of despite the circumstances and she cherished the little being in her gut so much. She prayed to the gods here that somehow she would find the strength to continue on and deliver this little thing. She lay there, still as her uterus contracted and she felt herself bleeding freely. She had ruptured something, deep down or split one. She wasn’t sure but she was dizzy. Her voice seemed so small, even to her "I’m so sorry". She felt tears streaming down her face as she started to lose consciousness.
