Just a little story I cooked up one night at work.

One day, a wolf was wandering in the midst of his troubles, sobering from a love that was lost, that he thought was supposed to be his life and future. The spirits spoke and said,"This was not to be, our brother wolf. The love you sought, was hidden, waiting for you in the background. You just needed to find her. Go, she is there, waiting for you. You will be guided to the right path. Once you feel that energy, you will be pulled along the way, to a long and fruitful journey. One that will be a lasting, forever journey, once you meet her. You will know when you come to your destination. The signs are there for you to read."
With that being told, the wolf plodded on his journey, sniffing the ground for his tracks of his love. Sniffing the air for her scent and stopping to howl to the moon, his message of love that was strong in his heart, hoping she would hear. He would come to a place of rest and lay down to go to sleep. He would dream and see the signs he was to look for. He saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky, glistening with it's seven brilliant colors. Sparkling, as if it were made of glass. Then he heard thunder rumbling in the sky, in his sleep, listening to the tears it had let fall to the earth. He sought for cover as quickly as possible, underneath a ledged rock, where he would take refuge from the storm, until it passed. He drifted off to sleep once again until morning.
He woke, to the sound of dripping drops off of the ledge rock, where he lay. He stood and shook, stretched and yawned. He stepped out from underneath the rock, looked to the sky and saw the clouds separating. The skies were clearing, the sun shining bright and lo and behold, he saw the most wondrous sight he had ever seen. The glassy, sparkling rainbow in the sky, he had seen in his dream. It's awesome arch and its magnificent colors. 'The sign' he thought.
He quickly started running towards the rainbow. Now and then, he would get atop of a hill or rock, just to see how much further he would have to go before he reached it. Running with the speed of an arrow, he dodged tree roots, bushes, darting about here and there, just to make sure he would make it in time before that majestic beauty would disappear.
Exhausted, beat and in despair, his head hanging low in defeat, looked up and saw that his destination was complete. The rainbow was still there. And there standing guard at the bottom of the rainbow, was a Sprite. The guardian of things of the earth. He saw her beauty and all exhaustion faded away. His heart started skipping beat and he knew this was his love. He felt the spirits rubbing his coat, letting him know his journey and search was over. "It is done and this will be." As both heard the words from the spirits.
Now, before the two go off and share their love of eternity, she must find someone to be the keeper of all things earthly. Any volunteers???
