Taka woke up in a comfortable nest, she guessed she was in the nursery since it was time to give birth to her foal. It had been two months since the herds ran Prince out, plus ShadowHerd has grown strong again and Midnight was the leader! 

Taka called the medicine mare because she felt the foal coming. Taka nickered in pain. "Flutter I feel the foal." Taka whinnied to the medic mare. "I know, stay calm and have a drink of water." Flutter was an amazing medicine mare, she knew how to calm horses down. "Ok, ok I will." Taka stuttered and drank from the little wooden bowl that Flutter had made. 

"It's coming!" Taka cried as the foal popped out. "Awe she's beautiful" Flutter commented, giving Taka more water. Taka sat up, her foal was a light palomino filly with a star and two back socks. 

Picasso came through and looked at the beautiful foal. Taka's breathing slowed down. She stood up and the foal tried to stand up but fell back down. Taka was nudging the foal until the filly found balance and drank her milk Taka supplied. "What name are you going to give her?" Picasso asked, grooming Taka. "I was thinking, you know how we exiled Prince. That makes him a rogue." Taka explained to Picasso. "Rogue, that's her name?" Picasso just wanted to make sure. Taka nodded her head. 

"Rogue. I like that." Picasso complemented. "Me too." Taka's voice was soft. Soon after her foal finished eating they went outside to play.Rogue chased Taka and Picasso around in the open field. "Picasso. May I ask a favor?" Taka asked, the little filly had fallen down. 

"Yeah."

"I need you to be Rogue's father until she's old enough to know her real father." Taka nickered quietly. "Of course, will you be StreamHerd's lead mare?" Picasso asked. "Yes." 

"Mama look!" Rogue called as she spun around in circles really fast. Picasso and Taka laughed. "You might get dizzy." Picasso called. Taka and Picasso gazed into each other's eyes. 

"Rogue going to be one hell of a warrior." Picasso nickered before they kissed.

Author's Note:

Sorry this chapter was short. How do you like Rouge so far? I think she is a very curious foal.
