"Just hold still and it won't hurt!" Oceane snapped down at Hero as she attempted to tie up the bow in her hair.

"OW!" Hero snapped at her mother as she quickly rushed off and ran out the room.

Oceane groaned. "ACE! CATCH!" She shouted.

"GOT HER!"

Ace quickly appeared back into the room as he carried the struggling girl in his arms.

He kept her floating in the air as Oceane quickly managed to tie her hair up.

"I don't like you anymore." Hero grumbled as she scowled at her mother.

"That's nice dear, hold still." Oceane mumbled in response as she finally managed to put the bow in her hair.

"Daddy put me down. Now."

Ace laughed and shook his head. "Not a chance sweetheart. You don't scare me the way your mum does."

Hero spun her head so she could scowl at her dad.

Only once her hair had been neatly bowed did Ace finally put her down and she raced off.

"Okay so the boys may have my angry glare but that madam?" Ace pointed to the door that Hero had just raced off through, "she's got your glare."

Oceane glared at Ace as she crossed her arms over her chest. He laughed and pointed at her.

"See! Right there! That's the glare!" He laughed out as she sighed, pushing past him.

"Are you sure we didn't forget anything?" Connie was panicking.

Oceane and Connie's parents sat in the living room as she paced nervously in front of them, wedding dress trailing behind her.

"Connie dear we got everything sorted." Her mother tried to relax her.

Connie took a few deep breathes as she fanned herself.

"We got the flowers?"

"Yes Connie."

"And the guys are all okay?"

"Yes Connie."

"The hall is all ready right?"

"Yes Connie."

"And the kids?"

"On their way to the church with Ace."

Connie took a few more deep breaths. "What time does the car get here?"

Oceane and Connie's parents fell silent.

"Guys... what time does the car get here?" Connie asked again, the nerves rising having not heard an answer.

"I'll just go check." Oceane quickly blurted out as she grabbed her dress and quickly raced outside the house.

Salvatore and Eyeball were standing on the edge of the street, talking quietly as Oceane rushed over to them.

"Salvy I need your help!" She exclaimed.

"I am at your service ma'am." He replied calmly.

"Actually it's more along the lines of I need your helicopter..." Oceane mumbled.

"My helicopter?" Salvatore questioned curiously.

"DON'T YOU DARE DROP ME!" Connie practically burst Salvatore's eardrums.
