Elara was now seven months along and her bump still wasn't too big, however, it was fairly noticeable, noticeable for males to know to stay away from her since Zarkon's protective and possessive instincts were the definition of death written in stone, he would always be near her at all times. Right now, the two were walking back from Ulaz, who discovered the baby's gender but Zarkon and Elara wanted to keep it a surprise for later on in her pregnancy. Zanthea happened to stumble upon them.

"Hi mother, father, how'd the scan go?" Zanthea asked.

"It was good, the baby is perfectly fine and was kicking up a storm." Elara said.

"Ulaz knows the gender but we wanted to keep it a surprise." Zarkon said.

"What? Why? It's better to know so you can have the nursery and clothes prepared." Zanthea said.

"We have a strong feeling it's going to be a girl." Elara said, she really wanted a son of her, by blood.

"Girls are all we seem to get." Zarkon sighed as well.

"How about this? I've been reading a lot about human festivities and I came across gender reveals, it's basically when the family and some friends of an expectant couple gather together to find out the gender of the unborn baby or babies via cake cutting, smoke cannons etc." Zanthea said.

"That doesn't sound too bad." Elara said.

"No it doesn't." Zarkon agreed.

"So what do you say?" Zanthea asked enthusiastically. Zarkon and Elara and Elara shared a look, then looked but at Zanthea.

"Ok. You can have three days to set something up." Elara said. Zanthea squealed happily and took off to Ulaz to get the gender so she could set something up. This was gonna be good.

Three days later-

"Alright all we have to do is wait for the Central Command Ship's usually purple lights to stop on either blue or pink!" Zanthea explained. Zarkon and Elara were standing in front of the crowd, being the paladins, blades, Coran, and of course the royal family looking up from Allura's ship at the Central Command Ship which lights we're fading between blue and pink. The anticipation of the royal family was growing. The lights finally stopped on blue, and the crowd went crazy.

"ITS A BOY!" Zanthea yelled loudly. Elara started crying tears of joy. Zarkon passed out almost immediately.

"You really outdid yourself." Elara said as she wiped her tears of joy away. Zanthea giggled and hugged her mother. Hunk than brought out a blue and pink cake that caught everyone but Zarkon's attention. What a beautiful family.
