The palace of the hills is a quite place. There is princess Amber, and her maids. She has a younger sister, Izzy.

But they also have talking gaurd horses. The best one is Marie, the pure breed female. She is grey and the best. She she isn't by the other horses. She has her own barn. Until Max came.

Max was a lone horse, Marie just found him and made him a gaurd horse. They have the same stalls, and love each other. They fell in love and became mates.

Now it April, and Marie is getting sick. The princess called the vet to check her out.

The vet walked into the barn. Max is out in the field, waiting.

"Well? What's wrong with her?" Amber asked the vet. The vet smiled. "I think I know. Let me get my machines." she walked to her care and came back with a little computer and cored.

The vet smiled and petted Marie. "Let me put this on you and then we're done" she said. Marie nodded.

After a few minutes, the vet smiled. "Well. Marie is fine. There's great news!" she said. Amber smiled. "Tell us!"

"Marie is carrying Max's foal. She's pregnant!"

Marie looked outside at Max. He smiled and trotted up to hrr window. "Well?" he asked. Marie smiled. "We're having a foal" Max smiled and nuzzled her.

"When will the baby be due?" Amber asked. "Well. Marie is 7 months now. Yes, late to know but horses are pregnant for 11 months. So by June - August"

Amber smiled. "Perfect!" she looked at Marie. "A new little foal! A new little gaurd! I wonder it's a filly or a colt"

Marie smiled at her. "I want a filly." she said. Amber smiled. "Me too!"

The vet left and Amber let Marie out in the fenced in field with Max. He smiled. "I can't wait! I want a colt!" he beamed. Marie laughed. "We'll see" she said.

Marie nuzzled him. "Oh max...we're having our first foul!" Max chuckled. "Well yes, but it won't be out last" he said. Marie blushed. "Well...yes...but It's out first!" she cried in joy.

Max nodded. "Yes but that means you need to rest and eat. And sleep, ok dear?" he asked. She nodded. "Yes!" she looked at the sky and yawned. "It's getting late. Let's go to bed"

They trotted back to their stable and Maire laid down. Max laid by her. She nuzzled him and laid her head down on his back. He smiled and laid closes his eys. She did that too and they went to sleep.

They both dreamed about the foal.
