Fluttershy paced nervously front to back, the robe tied tight around her waist to hide the embarrassing dress her favourite skirt and sweater had turned into. Whatever big mean thing that was changing it on her had against her, she didn’t know. She bit her nails, looking out the window then back to pacing. Fretting the worst with her little Hana. What if she couldn’t help her on time.

Angel did his best to hop onto her and try and calm the fretting woman, but Fluttershy would have none of it. Each time she’d set him down and tell him along the lines of no angel. No. She jumped a little when she heard a knock on the door and was quick to grab the towels she had stacked up and the electric lamp and opened the door.

“Around this way...” She didn’t even wait to see if they were following, simply going around the side of her house and to the backyard. Past the chicken coup and the little greenhouse type area where she kept the sugar reptiles. They’d come up to a very cutely made pen type area, pink in colour. She opened the gate and left it open, not caring that her robe was on the ground covered in hay. “Hana...”

AJ nodded, moving to help Fluttershy calm the ewe as best she could. She ran her hand gently over the sheep's ears and neck, however it was that Fluttershy did to try and keep her calm. Birthing was never an easy process, that was for sure.

"Ah promise, Sugar Cube. Everythin's gonna be fine." AJ gave a nod as if that settled the matter. "Go on, then, get those things for Mac. We'll keep her warm and safe out here."

	Fluttershy nodded and went off to get the things Mac would need, what he said were things needed to better help her little Hana. She was quick in getting all of them, and when she returned she handed them over and sat up at the Ewe's head ad began petting her ears. "There, there. You can do this..."

"She's doing good." He gently petted Hana's flanks as he positioned her just so for a supine delivery. Never the best for any animal, but usual often for these sorts when distressed.

With the water and towels, he gently cleaned Hana's privates area and then set himself up, and gently probed the area to make sure all was well. When he had done all he could, he sat back and nodded. "AJ, you count anytime she makes a noise and keep an eye on her for discoloration, temperature increase, anything else away from the birthing area. Fluttershy, you know her better than us. You keep at what you are keeping at, and let me know anything you think of, anything at all."

He hated talking so much, but for a life, he would hang all his likes and dislikes to dry.

"It's natural, an' wonderful, Fluttershy." AJ said, giving her friend a nod. "She's gonna be just fine. Don't fret." She felt like a broken record saying it so much, but it felt like that was what Fluttershy needed to hear. "Female critters of all shapes and sizes have been giving birth as long as Mammals have wandered the planet."

AJ nodded to her brother, and knelt beside the ewe, resting one hand on her back. The poor dear should be fine, so long as the baby wasn't breech. Though, that would be the first thing Mac would notice if it came up.
