As Hera slept peacefully in his arms, Sharky quietly slipped out of bed. He activated the Divine Stone, feeling the familiar pulse of violet time-energy wrap around him.
In an instant, he vanished from Hera's chamber, reappearing beside Echidna in another moment of time.
Echidna looked up as Sharky materialized, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "Back so soon?" she teased, rising to her feet.
"Yes," Sharky nodded, as he came close to Echidna, and without hesitation he pushed her on the grass.
Echidna gasped in surprise as Sharky pushed her down onto the grass, her back arching as he followed her down. In an instant, their clothes vanished, leaving them bare and pressed against each other.
Sharky's lips crashed against hers in a fierce, passionate kiss. Echidna responded eagerly, wrapping her legs around his waist and pulling him closer.
