Story: Paradox’s Despair – Chapter 46

46.

Taking a vacation from the office wasn’t a good idea now that she thought about it, since she’d come back with a little more than just a souvenir. Epona felt so uncomfortable today as she slowly opened the door to the examination room.eponapreg

“Good morning,” She said cheerfully and stopped when she saw LillyRose sitting on the examination table. “Lady Chaos…” She suddenly bowed.

“Dr. Epona, please don’t bow, geez you helped bring me into the world.” Lilly sighed.

“Lilly, you’re pregnant?” Epona asked as she looked at Lilly and saw her little belly bulge.

“Yeah…” Lilly blushed suddenly. “Mom suggested I see you.”

“I see, so where is the father?” Epona asked.

“He’s working. One of Dad’s guards now.”

“Oh, whose guard was he before?” She asked while she started the examination on Lilly.

“Um, mine.” Lilly blushed.

“Oh… I see…” She grinned as she brought a stethoscope down to listen to her.

Lilly looked at Dr. Epona and her ears suddenly went forward. “You’re pregnant too.”

Epona looked at herself. “Yes, so I am. You’re about as observant as your father.”

“Dad is very observant apparently.” She blushed again.

“Let me guess… he knew you had been with some pony?”

“Yes. How did you know?” Lilly asked.

“Lucky guess,” She shrugged. “Father’s always have a sixth sense when it comes to their daughters. Especially to the ones they are the most connected to. You are like him in so many ways. Lady Chaos.” Epona winked.

“That title… I sometimes like it but sometimes it irritates me.” Lilly sighed and jumped when Epona strapped an instrument to her belly.

“Okay, let’s see.” Epona said cheerfully as she moved a wand over Lilly’s stomach.

Lilly heard noises come from the machine a heartbeat strong and firm. “Oh! That’s my heart.”

“Yes, your heart is strong. That’s great.” She used her magic and moved the machine down more until it picked up a fluttering fast beat. Lilly’s ears went forward. “That is your foal. Sounds nice and healthy.”

Lilly blinked. “Oh my goodness. I wish Zero was here. Do you know what it’ll be?”

Epona started to chuckle. “I don’t know, you have a 50 percent chance of getting a boy or a girl.”

“Oh… that narrows it down. Thanks doctor.” Lilly replied sarcastically.

Epona grinned. “I’m always willing to help. Your sister is going to foal soon. I am so happy to be your family’s Doctor. How is your father and mother?”

“Dad is here with mom in the other exam room.” Lilly stated.

Epona blinked suddenly. “They’re here?”

Lilly nodded. “Yeah, mom is pregnant again.”

“At her age?” A look of worry went across Epona’s face.

“Epona? What do you mean at her age? You’re older than mom and you’re pregnant.”

“I’m also an Alicorn. My body ages differently than other ponies.” She unstrapped the device from Lilly. “You are doing very well, try to not do too many spells where you manipulate your body. Too much magic will affect your foal.”

Lilly blinked at the news. “How do you know that?”

“As I said before, I’m an Alicorn.” She smiled.
