Just An Experiment

Chapter Fifty Eight: Tiger Accepts His Fate

Tiger and Yakko left The Tiger frozen for a time. They didn't travel anywhere so they couldn't mess anything else up. As long as The Tiger was frozen, nothing would change. His time was frozen, but Yakko and Tiger wouldn't risk anything more. They didn't leave for fear of being spotted by Waryes. They weren't frozen, but they were still at a standstill.

Waryes watched their every move that wasn't at the timestream. If they unfroze Tiger, The Tiger would have to fight and he wasn't ready for it yet. They didn't know how much time really passed as they stayed there. They were just waiting, trying to figure out something.

Unfortunately thinking of brilliant strategies was not a warner's best skill. All they could do was discuss ideas and thoughts. And sing and dance and play. Hey, they were still playful.

Sooner or later though, Yakko would have to rescue everyone. With no night or day, it was hard to judge just how much time had passed by. Needing to know, Yakko finally gathered the courage to take off. He wouldn't mess up with their time yet, in case it was too soon. No, he would visit Scratchy in 2007 once more. Surely, he had made it to Iop and gotten back to Samantha.

Earth....2007.

But, that wasn't what Yakko found. "Scratchy?"

"..."

"Scratchy?!" Yakko shook the now old man again. "Scratchy?" He whined. The cookie was only temporary.

"Yakko." Scratchansniff mumbled softly. "Why did you leave me? For so long?"

"Leave?" Yakko said sadly. "Scratchy, I-"

"It's over this time." Scratchansniff started to close his eyes wearily. "We tried. We tried to find you. To get away from him."

"From him?" Yakko growled. "The Tiger? But how, he's frozen!"

"Only one The Tiger." Scratchansniff said sadly. "Time . . . has many . . . "

"Scratchy?" Yakko whined. This wasn't good. What had The Tiger told him? "Where's Samantha? Did you get to her?"

Scratchy slowly nodded his head. "She looked so sad before she saw me." He started to smile slightly. "She vas so happy to see me. She told me everything, und I told her everything . . . and . . ."

"And?" Yakko pressed.

Scratchansniff started to get off the chair and headed to a room. Yakko followed closely.

He heard crying.

Scratchansniff opened the door to a room. "She could only take so much. How I even survived. How he survived."

Yakko's ears started to droop. " . . . Scratchansniff."

"He's over four months old now, and she'll never see him." Scratchansniff started to go over to a crib. "Yakko, I know you have been traveling in time." He growled just a bit. "Why did you stay away for sooo long?"

"I-I didn't," Yakko had to explain. "You know, 2 years can go by in two seconds! But really, I haven't been-"

"I don't want to hear it," Scratchansniff yelled at him. "Just go! Get out! Bad things only happen when you are involved. Stay away from me. Stay away from my son!"
