Sweetie Belle gently carressed the egg that held her next child. Muted chirps and mews could be heard throught the shell. It was soon time for her and Spike to welcome their lastest addition into the world. Gentle taps and slight shakes were becoming more and more frequent. It was only a matter of time now and their son, Hedgewing, would have a sibling.
Sweetie Belle (smiling sweetly): Soon.
Hedgewing: What's soon, mother?
Sweetie Belle: You will have a little brother or sister.
Hedgewing: Wow. Can I play with them when they get here?
Sweetie Belle: Not immediately. They will have to get a bit bigger.
Hedgewing: Will we be friends?
Sweetie Belle: Yes, my son, that will start as soon as your eyes meet.
