Panic threatened to seize her as she watched Zjeena sink into the sand, her body deflating in defeat. She could see it in every fiber of the mare's being, her wish to surrender to this world and give up. No, she refused to give them Zjeena. She refused to let the mare go. She stomped her hoof in the sand and screamed at Zjeena, screamed until her voice felt hoarse. Poor Medusa clung to her leg for dear life, not knowing whether to run or hide between her mother's legs from all the tension and fear that wracked her little body watching this. None of this felt right. Why was the mare so quiet and why couldn't she get up? Why was her mother yelling so loudly? She didn't understand any of it but right now, Medusa was but an echo of Monster's thoughts because they revolved around the dying mare in front of her. She continued to encourage and rampage at Zjeena, telling her in the same breath that she was the strongest mare she knew and she could do this, then turn right around and say if she died on her then Monster would bring her back just to kill her herself. Finally it was as if something got through to her. Monster didn't know what did it, she was only glad something did. Zjeena started to push and she let out the loudest scream Monster ever heard. The paint didn't even know that tears were streaked on her cheeks as she cried out in new encouragement for the mare, pushing her to get the baby out. Finally a colt laid on the sand next to her and Monster held her breath, waiting to see what happened next. Zjeena found her breath and heaved herself up to clean him. Monster stayed close, not caring if Zjeena attacked her in a protective rage over her newborn son. She only cared to help hold the mare's weight if she needed it, to be her shoulder to lean on. She glanced at the mare's flanks and scowled in worry, seeing the blood. There was too much, but at least Zjeena was standing now. Next she looked at the colt, glad to see him take a breath of air and start to stand himself. It was magical to watch, even if she'd only witnessed it herself with Medusa not so long ago. Medusa even jumped in on it now, gasping when the colt was born then she took a daring step forward, though staying by Monster's front legs as she reached her muzzle out to cheer the colt on. "Come on, you can do it!" Monster smiled down at her daughter, reaching down to nuzzle the top of her head as she looked at Zjeena. "He's very handsome, Zjeena. You should be proud. Of him and yourself." Then she gave a snort. "But don't you dare scare me like that again."
