"It was just before you were hatched. Me, Uncle Scrooge and Donald had been on several adventures with Celaeno by now, and we had grown close." Della said, looking at the large, pure crystal cutlass laying on the table. "We knew everything there was to flying, so I asked her to help me design a spaceship."

-Flashback-

"I want to give my boys the stars!" Della said.

"And that, you can do if we work together! We know everything about flying!" Celaeno answered. "I am so excited that you will be a mother soon!"

"Exactly why I want to do this now!"

"Then why are we standing here gabbin?!" Celaeno said spinning Della in a circle. "I'll help you with the blueprints and we will have the best rocket ship yet!"

-End Flashback-

Della sighed. "However...Donald and I got into a fight.."

"And then..." Scrooge said his voice trailing off.

-Flashback 2-

"YOU CAN'T GO! IT'S TOO DANGEROUS!" snapped Donald.

"I AM GOING TO DO THIS DONALD! I WANT TO GIVE MY BOYS THE STARS!" Della bit back.

"Ugh, fighting again." Celaeno muttered as she walked to to Scrooge, who was wanting by the door. "Scrooge, Della and I made the blueprints. They are ready."

"Excellent lass." Scrooge said, taking them. "But don't tell Della, this is a surpirse for her!"

"I promise!" Celaeno said taking off her hat for a moment. She and Scrooge shared a smirk, then split paths for awhile.

-End flashback 2-

Scrooge looked at the cutlass. "Celaeno was true to her word as a captain would be. Yet Della found out..."

-Flashback 3-

"YOU CANNOT STOP ME!" Della snapped.

"CAN TO! YOU HAVE EGGS TO CARE FOR!" Donald yelled.

"I AM TEST FLYING THE SPEAR OF SELENE TONIGHT!"

"I WON'T LET YOU"

Celaeno's pointy ears bent down as she backed away from the closed doors. At first, she was frightened, and unsure what to do, when suddenly, she had an idea. She threw a leather satchel, filled with supplies on her back and picked up a piece of parchment and wrote a note to Della.

"Della,

I've taken the Spear Of Selene.

Forgive me,

Celaeno"

Celaeno place the note on the door and then turned, running outside. Her braced foot hurt slightly, but she hurried on, limping on her right leg..

Just as Della stormed out to steal the Spere Of Selene, she saw the note on the ground. She picked up and and read it, just as the sound of the rocket blasting off echoed throughout the building. Della was terrified and unsure what to do. "UNCLE SCROOOOOGEE!" she yelled.

Scrooge woke with a start and he fell of the couch, running to Della. "WHAT IS IT LASS!?" he said, straightening his hat. Della was almost hysterical. "CELAENO TOOK THE ROCKET BECAUSE DONALD AND I WERE FIGHTING UNCLE SCROOGE PLEASE CALL HER DOWN I WAS GONNA TAKE IT BUT-"

"Calm down lass." Scrooge said. "Ah'll contact her now!" He and Della ran to the control panel and he picked up the transmitter. "Celaeno, this is Scrooge McDuck. Do ye read me lass? Over."

"Captain Celaeno here. Over."

"Lass, what are ye thinkin?! Over!"

"I am just going to orbit, then come back down! Over."

"No." said Della, taking the microphone. "Go on Celaeno! You are the best airship captain I know! You can do this! Over"

"Aye lass!" Scrooge said. "Ye can do it!"

At first, everything was just fine. Until Celaeno radioed that there was a cosmic storm. At first Della and Scrooge coaxted her onwards, but then Della said,

"Celaeno, you need to come down. This is too much! Over"

"I read you, Della Duck. I will return. Over"

However, that last bolt struck the rocket ship. And the screen went black, the last thing Della and Scrooge seeing was the fear in Celaeno's reddish eyes.

"NOO!" said Della as she desperately tried to regain contact. But no luck. "Uncle Scrooge!" she begged. "Send searchers! WE HAVE TO FIND HER!"

"Ah'll do everything Ah can lass." he said, hugging Della.

"Oh Uncle Scrooge...This..This is all my fault. If I hadn't been fighting with Donald she never would have done this! I wish I never wanted to build that rocket..." she hung onto Scrooge and sobbed, just as Donald walked in with her eggs...

-End Flashback 3-

"But our uncle is the richest duck in the world!" snapped Dewey. "Why didn't you send more ships to search for her?!"

"Ah-" started Scrooge. but he was cut off.

"Cheap old Scrooge probably bailed out the minute it put a dent in his money bin!"

"We searched as long as we could! But I almost drove his company into bankruptcy!" Della said.

"You think Uncle Scrooge is rich now?" Donald said. "He still is but..." he couldn't bring himself to finish.

"Celaeno..And the Spear Of Selene were forever lost..." Della said, her voice breaking.
