  1. >Five long, stress-filled weeks have passed since the Alicorns' second breeding session
  2. >You bred the foals (now fully-grown) about halfway between those weeks, but you're worried about Lily and Mint
  3. >All seems to be going well, but you can never be too careful
  4. "Tummy feew funneh...babbehs comin?"
  5. >Huh...at least they're aware that they're pregnant
  6. "Okay, Mint. Let me help"
  7. >Four healthy foals
  8. >Three colts and a filly
  9. "Alright, that's great."
  10. >Lily follows suit a few hours later
  11. >Two foals
  12. >Both are fillies
  13. "Great job, Lily...now let's get you-"
  14. "Nuu! Babbeh stiww in tummeh!"
  15. "Wha...?"
  16. >One more foal's coming out
  17. >You know what that means
  18. >It's probably a runt
  19. >You've been breeding long enough to know that a runt comes out late
  20. >Maybe ALicorns will give it a chance though
  21. >Lily sniffs the foal
  22. >She gives Lightning a worried look
  23. "Babbeh...babbeh too smaww?"
  24. >Lightning sniffs the foal as well
  25. >His expression quickly deteriorates into sadness
  26. "...babbeh too smaww..."
  27. >Lily carefully cleans the foal and hugs it for a bit
  28. "Sowwy, babbeh...you too smaww...nu can be happy...daddeh wiww make bettah..."
  29. >She carefully passes the foal to Lightning, who hugs it
  30. >He carries it as far away as he can from Lily and sets it down
  31. "...sowwy..." he whispers
  32. >He raises a forehoof and presses it down onto the foal's head
  33. >Before you can stop him, you hear a pop, and the foal stops moving
  34. "Oh shit...Marcus, you better come in here."
  35. "What is it?"
  36. "There was a runt."
  37. "Crap...get a washcloth and-"
  38. "No...Lightning killed it."
  39. >He looks just as shocked as you were
  40. "Why?"
  41. "Alicorns ARE smarter than normal fluffies...they said something about it not being able to be hapy."
  42. "Maybe they knew it couldn't survive..."
  43. "Maybe...it was pretty awful. Look at them."
  44. >Even though the foal was a runt, Lightning and Lily still try to console each other
  45. >They have two healthy babies, but even so the death of the runt was painful for them
  46. >A regular fluffy would simply kick the baby away if it tried to hug its mother or eat
  47. >But Alicorns...
  48. >They actually show it some love before killing it
  49. >And the actual act was as quick as they could make it
  50. "Wanna help me clean up? I don't want to deal with this by myself."
  51. "Yeah, Anon...you just make sure Light and Lily are alright. I'll get the foal."
  52. >You spend a few minutes stroking the fluffies' manes, whispering reassuring words to them
  53. >You feel terrible, especially when you think about Starsplash
  54. >To think that he could have shared that fate...
  55. >You forget the incident as weeks turn into months
  56. >You have begun selling fluffy Alicorns for quite a pretty penny
  57. >Everyone wants one
  58. >The Townsburg Petshop becomes an international sensation almost overnight
  59. >Luckily, you were able to keep up with demand
  60. >You and Marcus are able to retire within half a year
  61. >You sell the secret to breeding Alicorns to Hasbro, which begins developing its new line of fluffies
  62. >You and Marcus split the profits 50/50
  63. >You've each made over $20 million
  64. >Starsplash is going to get all the spaghetti he ever wants
  65. >After all, you couldn't have done this without him
