Part 2

In Which Steiner's Armour Gets Even Rustier

OR

Who Taught Them the Agadoo?

Five minutes had past since the tiny sugar lumps had been handed out. The effect, however, was tremendously huge. Vivi was running around in circles, talking complete gibberish. Eiko was jumping around claiming to be a teapot. Blank and Garnett were simultaneously singing random songs while all the time dancing to the Agadoo. Zidane was scurrying around telling them all that the little elves were coming. Stiltzkin could be heard in the background laughing somewhat evilly. At least, as evilly as a cute fluffy moogle could laugh. Steiner, the only one who had not eaten the sugar cubes, was jumping up and down on the spot, demanding some sort of sense, and screaming at Zidane. Garnett ran up to Zidane, eyes twitching.

"Let's push rusty into the spring!" Zidane's eyes were flitting all around the room, never settling in one spot for longer than a few seconds.

"Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah!" He jumped around clapping his hands. Blank let out a wild, high-pitched giggle, causing Eiko to cower behind Stiltzkin. Together, Garnett and Zidane pounced on Steiner, dragging him towards the spring, a difficult feat, considering he was still jumping up and down in rage!

With a splash, he was forced into the spring, still shouting! Giggling, the others ran away.

Zidane skipped out of the ice cavern with the rest of the group just behind him. Garnett stretched in the weak sun. Zidane scratched his head.

"Now what?" the group lounged around on the rocks for a while, until they heard a distinct creaking heading their way. Garnett jumped to her feet, screaming.

"AHHH! IT'S A MONSTER!" The rest of the group jumped up as well, before scattering across the plains. Eiko followed Blank towards the gates to Lindblum, while Garnett and Zidane ran off towards Dali. Meanwhile Vivi jumped off the nearby cliff. As a result, when Steiner reached the entrance, his armour covered in even more rust than ever, and creaking at every step, there was no one in sight. He ran to one side of the platform where the others had been lounging, then, he turned and ran to the other side. He ran back to the middle. He stared around in a circle. He tapped his foot. Then a voice spoke.

"Really man! Stop tapping your foot! It's like a minor explosion!" Arms folded, Stiltzkin walked slowly out of the cave.

"But, everyone's gone! They just abandoned me!" Steiner blinked sadly. Stiltzkin shook his head.

"Cry you should!" Steiner blinked then burst into tears.

"No one loves me!" Stiltzkin nodded wisely.

"Search, you must. Find them, you will." Steiner jumped up and down, still crying.

"But I don't know where they went."

"The force, you must use!" Steiner blinked, and stopped crying.

"You mean I need to bully people into telling me where they are? Thanks crazy small thing!" With that he jumped up and ran out into the plains.

"No! Wait!" But it was too late. Steiner was to far away to hear Stiltzkin's shout. Stiltzkin sighed.

"Stop talking like this, I must."
