Eternity By:SnowPuppy The Echidna family was relieved to know that Sweetheart only had a bad  stomach ache. It seemed that Kay-Si's sister Nick-Ol had forgotten that  dogs  aren't suppose to have chocolate. Kay-Si wrote a letter to her sister  with a  list of things that are appropriate for a dog to eat. Kay-Si then went  outside for a walk, for awhile. She needed some fresh air. Vycky-Na was watching close by with a rope in her hands. She was at it  again!  Can you believe that she hasn't gave up yet? "I have the perfect plan this time," she mumbled to herself, "and this  one is  guaranteed not to fail." What's Vycky-Na's plan this time? Well, lets see what else she has to  say. "All I've gotta do, is separate those two," She said. "And I'll just  have to  do it myself, they're definatly not going to separate on their own." Vycky-Na watched Kay-Si pick some ripe oranges from a nearby tree. "She has no idea whats coming! She's so unaware of her husband's future  disappearance. And I'm going to make that disappearance happen now. All  I've  gotta do, is find Steppenwolf alone, and then tie him up with this rope  I've  got here. If he can't move, he can't do anything to stop me. Then, I  will  take Steppenwolf far away from here. Far, far away. Off the island, and  somewhere else. We will take an airplane, and go to a lake I know of.  It's  pretty far away. And I will then try to get him to change his mind, and  divorce Kay-Si. But if he doesn't change his mind, then I'll just leave  him  there. And he won't be able to get back to his wife, because he'll be  so far  away from her! This plan will not fail, I'm sure of it!" She said to  herself. She waited, and waited, for Steppenwolf to be alone. It was not easy.  Vycky-Na couldn't capture Steppenwolf while he was on his guard duty,  and  when he wasn't on his guard duty it seemed like him and Kay-Si were  always in  the same room. Finally, when Kay-Si got up to make dinner, Vycky-Na had  her  chance. Steppenwolf was the only one in the living room;his wife had  gone to  make dinner, and his son Moonwatcher was doing some errands. And also,  Dylan  was in his room doing something, Vycky-Na wasn't quite sure what, and  Lynz-Si  and Harlan were taking their nap, but it really didn't matter if they  were in  the same room as Steppenwolf, because they were very young and they  couldn't  do anything about the capturing. But Vycky-Na was glad that Dylan  wasn't in  the same room as his father, for even if he couldn't do anything about  it, he  could still call his mother into the room, or he could make time for  Steppenwolf to get away from Vycky-Na. Vycky-Na then knocked on the door and waited for a response from  Steppenwolf.  She tapped her foot impatiently until she heard the doorknob turning. Vycky-Na immediately got out the rope and was ready to spring into  action the  moment she saw Steppenwolf standing there. And she did. With a quick leap, Vycky-Na tied Steppenwolf up in the  rope and  dragged him out the door, which wasn't easy. Steppenwolf isn't exactly  someone you would enjoy dragging around. Then they got off the island. Yeah, your probably wondering, 'how did  they do  that without a guardian's ability to glide?' Well, I'll tell you.  Vycky-Na  just *happened* to bring a helicopter, and she put Steppenwolf in  it(which  was kind-of hard to do), and got in herself. She then, using the  helicopter,  flew off of the island. After awhile, Kay-Si noticed that her husband was missing. At first,  she  thought he had gone back out. But when it got later, and still no sign  of  him, she began to get worried. It wasn't like him. She called the police, and they were soon on the job. But looking for  the  guardian of the floating island was a new one on them. Whoever was  close to  Steppenwolf(family, friends, etc.) was included in the search and very  worried about him. Some of them didn't show it, but you still could  tell. They all searched the whole island, but didn't find Steppenwolf nor any  clue  to where he was.  "I'm sorry, Mrs.Echidna," spoke Officier Loren, "but your husband is no  where  on the island. We cannot do a search of the whole planet, but we will  begin a  search on land that's near here. Hopefully, he isn't too far away. We  will do  our best, ma'am." "Thank you, Officier Loren, for your help." Kay-Si replied. "Anytime." Answered Officier Loren. They both fell silent all of a sudden, and neither spoke a word. Loren  was  the first one to make a move, he walked away and joined everybody else  on the  search. Kay-Si turned to her two worried sons, Moonwatcher and Dylan, but she  didn't  say a word. All the words she wanted to say were just locked up inside  of  her, and whenever she did say them she said them too fast and hardly  anyone  could understand what she was trying to say. But it was like  Moonwatcher, and  even Dylan, knew what their mother was trying to say to them. She was worried. Very worried. Meanwhile, Vycky-Na had just landed near the lake she was talking  about, and  she got out. She untied Steppenwolf and he climbed out of the  helicopter  faster than you could imagine, probably because he didn't want to be in  there  any longer, or he just wanted to get away from something that belonged  to  Vycky-Na. But whichever one, he looked mad. Excuse me, did I say mad?  More  like angry. He looked like he was ready to say a thousand things to Vycky-Na, but  he  didn't. He only said five words in a very low tone of voice. "Why have you done this?" Was what he asked. "Isn't it so obvious, Steppy? What have I been trying to do all along?  Come  on, your not dence, are you? You should know why I've done this."  Vycky-Na  provoked Steppenwolf. "Yes, I know, but why would you have the nerve to...," Steppenwolf  began, but  he suddenly changed the subject. "And as I've told you before, don't  call me  Steppy!" "Now, I'll take you back ONLY if you divorce your wife." Vycky-Na said. "Never." Steppenwolf replied. "Okay, I'll leave you here, then. But I'll be back, and I won't stop  until  you agree to divorce your wife!" Vycky-Na said, and she got back in her  helicopter, and flew off. Steppenwolf looked glad that Vycky-Na was now out of the picture... but  how  long will she be? She said she was coming back, and she always does, no  doubt  about that. But Steppenwolf decided that he wasn't going to wait around for  Vycky-Na to  come back and annoy him some more. He decided he was going to find the  island  again himself, no matter how far away it was. He didn't want his wife  to  think he had left her, or anything like that. He wanted to be there for  her,  but the island was so far away. But he didn't care one bit. But he had to swim accross that lake first, and there was no way around  it.  It was pretty big for a lake. But Steppenwolf just hoped that it wasn't  THAT  big. He jumped in, and started to swim towards the island. But he knew  he was  no where close to it, for nothing was familiar. Vycky-Na was right. She  HAD  taken Steppenwolf far, far away from the island. As hours went by, he was still swimming in that very lake, tiredness  and  hunger upon him. And he had fallen asleep while swimming. But, luckily,  a  storm hit and the fierce waves had carried Steppenwolf to shore. Now,  all  that was left was for him to wake up. The sound of a helicopter was what woke him up. He looked above him and  saw  Vycky-Na preparing for a landing.  When she finally did land, she spoke to Steppenwolf, first thing. "I was just heading back to the lake, and I spotted you washed up on  shore."  Vycky-Na explained. "You must've not been flying very high, then." Steppenwolf said. "Why even bother to try and go back, anyway? The island is way far  away, even  from here. But I'll take you back, IF you divorce your wife." Vycky-Na  said. After much thought, Steppenwolf had an idea to get Vycky-Na to fly him  back  WITHOUT divorcing his wife. "It's a deal." Steppenwolf lied;really, he wasn't going to divorce his  wife.  He was just saying that he was going to so that Vycky-Na would fly him  back. "Oh, wonderful! And afterwords, you'll marry me?" Vycky-Na asked. "Anything you ask." Lied Steppenwolf once more. "Oh, yeah! You've just made my day, Steppy! I have won and Kay-Si has  lost!"  Vycky-Na said happily. That just shows how dumb you are, Vycky-Na. I would never divorce my  wife.  Thought Steppenwolf. Unfortunately, Steppenwolf really didn't like the idea of lying, but he  had  to if he was ever going to get back to the island without starving to  death.  And, lucky for him, Vycky-Na had fallen for his act.  Vycky-Na gladly took Steppenwolf back to the island. However, what she  wasn't  aware of was that she had been tricked. When they finally got back to  the  island(it took a couple of hours. Gosh! I guess Vycky meant what she  said  when she said that she took Steppenwolf far away from the island.:P)  Steppenwolf got out of the helicopter right away, just as he had done  before.  He immediately saw his wife, panic across her face, and some other  people,  some whom he knew, some he didn't. He walked over to her, and she was  surprised to see him. Actually, the panic that was once on her face now  disappeared as if it had never been there. "S-Steppenwolf?" She asked, as if she had never uttered his name  before. "Yes, Kay-Si, I'm here." Steppenwolf said to his wife. Kay-Si didn't say anything. It was hard for her to find the right words  to  say. Finally, after much time and thought, she managed to say, "Where  have  you been?". Unfortunately, Steppenwolf wasn't the one to answer Kay-Si's question.  Before  he could explain everything, Vycky-Na interrupted their short  discussion. "Let me tell you the disturbing news, loser Kay-Si. Be prepared for  what your  about to hear." Said Vycky-Na evilly. "What disturbing news?" Asked Kay-Si confusingly. "And what do you  mean,  'loser Kay-Si?'"  "Let me put it this way. You have lost, L O S T, lost. And I have won."  Answered Vycky-Na. "What are you talking about? What have I lost on?" Asked the confused  Kay-Si. "Your completely cluless, aren't you? Well, I'm in a good mood, so I'll  tell  you," Vycky-Na replied. "You have lost in the battle for Steppenwolf.  You  have lost him, I have won him." "What do you mean...?" Asked Kay-Si, panic starting to show on her face  again. Steppenwolf was about to say something, but Vycky-Na, again,  interrupted. "Your so-called loyal husband has decided to divorce you, and marry  me."  Vycky-Na announced. Kay-Si was silent. She looked like she was suffering a thousand  tortures  after hearing Vycky-Na's announcement.  Finally, with the silence, Steppenwolf got to explain everything. It  was  killing him inside to see Kay-Si suffering so badly, when he could just  explain that he had tricked Vycky-Na. But all that time Vycky-Na  wouldn't let  him. But now was his chance. "It's not true, Kay-Si," Steppenwolf told her, "it IS true that I told  Vycky-Na that. But it doesn't mean I meant it. I tricked  Vycky-Na,  don't you  see? I'm not going to divorce you. Never would I." "You tricked me?!" Shouted Vycky-Na, both angry and disappointed at  what she  was hearing. "Yes, I tricked you. I would never leave Kay-Si to marry someone as  cold-hearted as you. Infact, even if you weren't cold-hearted I still  wouldn't leave Kay-Si to marry you. I love her too much, don't you see?  I'm  never going to divorce her. You might as well just give up, because  it's  never going to happen." Steppenwolf said to the disappointed Vycky-Na. "Oh, that's what you think! Someday, someday I will have what I want! I  just  need to think of a better plan, that's it! You may have won this time,  Kay-Si, but lets just see about next time! Au revoir!" Said Vycky-Na,  and she  ran off. "Did you really mean what you said?" Asked Kay-Si when she was sure  Vycky-Na  was gone. "Yes, Kay-Si. Every word." Replied Steppenwolf. And, if you were wondering when they were going to kiss, they just did,  right  that minute. And soon, word got around that Steppenwolf was back, and  the  search was called off. The whole story was explained nearly fifty  times,  including to Kay-Si whom had no idea what had happened. "I thought you had left me." Kay-Si told Steppenwolf that night. "Never. I love you and would never leave you. Never." Steppenwolf said  to  Kay-Si. "Never?" Asked Kay-Si. "Never... I will love you for eternity." Steppenwolf replied. "Me, too. For all eternity." Was the last thing that Kay-Si had said,  before  she fell asleep. THE END (Very important note: This is my last fanfic, for now. I'm not going to  be  making them anymore. And there is two reasons for this: Number 1, I  just  can't think of anything to make my fanfics about anymore. I ran out of  ideas.  And number 2, I'm just not in the mood for making fanfics right now.  It's  hard to make them when your mind is on something else, like mine is..  I'm not  interested in the topic I'm writing about anymore. I'm still writing  fanfics,  though they are about something else that grabs my attention more.  Though,  I'm only saying that this is my last fanfic FOR NOW. Maybe later on in  the  future I will start making them about this topic again, I don't know.  But as  of now, I'm not. Thank you for reading this important note.)
