Two years later...

I couldn't wait to see my beautiful future wife in her newly designed dress. Even as I dressed myself in my expensive black and Cyan tux, I couldn't wait any longer. I dashed myself with natural ice dragon cologne, and took a deep breath.

I needed to get myself to calm down. I wouldn't want anyone to think that I had gotten bricked up, nor worked up about the wedding if you know what I mean. But how could I not? What I've been dreaming about for over a decade is finally here.

And it's on my birthday! That was the icing on the cake to me. Speaking of which, I sat down in the dressing room and started thinking about the cake they planned for me. What flavor would it be? Did Luni pick it out? How many dragons and humans would be here?

Those questions left as quick as they came once someone knocked on the door. "Come in!" I signaled that the door was unlocked. "SURPRISE!!" Multiple voices said all at once as they opened the door.

Instead of it being all adults, it happened to be one's of... a shorter status. Still, I didn't complain. I was happy to see my new additions to the family stop by. Ajin, Athena, Majin, and Zaina.

They each had an individual present for me, along with my favorite fruit on top of them. Dragon fruits. "Aww you guys made this for me??" I felt my heart swell. "Yeah! Don helped me out with it." Ajin jumped.

"And we all helped each other!" Zaina cheered. "We hope you enjoy our gifts, brother Silver." Majin bowed in respect. "Same here." Athena did the same. "Your gifts are all appreciated guys. You can put them on here." I tapped on a stool.

"Okay, see ya later big brother!" Ajin waved goodbye along with the rest of the others as they left out the door after setting their presents down on the stool. But while they giggled their butts off on the way out, I saw Lucian come in with a small present as soon as they left.

"Hey man." He greeted. "Hey dude. How's Marceline?" I asked. "She's got energy I'll give her that. Ever since we adopted Tenebris, things haven't looked the same you know."

"Heh, same can be said for my siblings, but I won't complain." I assured. My attention became focused on what was in his hand. A small black box strapped with a gold chain. "What's that?" I asked him.

"Your gift. As a repayment for bailing us out last year. Faria demanded for me to give you the gold chain by the way." Lucian added. I laughed at his serious sounding addition to his sentence. "Very well." I responded humorously, and took the box.

"Have a peak. I promise you it'll be worth it." Lucian promised. I opened the box, and a flurry of pure cold energy rushed upon me, and throughout the room.

"Lucian... this is the ferinix daar gem. This is an ancient relic that's been said to have gone missing for generations after the death of the first ice dragon emperor! How did you find this?!" I asked excitedly.

"I had to search the deepest parts of the north ocean. I almost froze to death completely, so you better not lose it either." Lucian warned. "I also heard that it can buff up an ice dragon, or dragonblood by a ton. Feel any different?" He asked.

"A little bit. I feel lighter somehow." I answered. "Good. You can put it on after the wedding. I don't wanna ruin the big day." Lucian turned around. "See ya!" He waved as he walked out. "Bye!!" I waved.

I closed the box, and put it down with the rest of the gifts. 'I understand why I let Luni in. My wife likes her. But Maoi... why did you force me to take in Majin and Zaina?' I asked confused. There was a moment of silence.

'They're still my kids too. Revenge blinded me from staying with them, but I at least wanna stay as close to them as possible, even if I'm dead.' Maoi answered. "Hmm I see." I nodded before hearing the wedding bell.

I took that as my cue to walk down the aisle. I walked out of the dressing room from the right, and made my way towards the aisle. Everyone was here. Everyone I knew was here. Even the royals I had met showed up to my wedding.

Another surprise was that once I made it to the quartz altar at the end of the snow white rug, I saw that Zey was doing the mediation. "You have grown well my boy. I couldn't be more happier for you in such dark times." He smiled.

"Thank you sir." He and I shook hands, and hugged each other. Now, it was Luni's turn to come out. Once she did, I couldn't help but shed a tear. She wore and all white dress with moon streaks and glitter all around the bottom edges.

I wanted to cry right then and there as she walked down the aisle, but I held strong. As she made it towards the altar, she and I grabbed each other's hands, and spoke our vows to each other. That I won't go into detail about.

"Now! Silver, do you accept Luni as your celestial mate?" Zey asked me. "I do." I nodded vigorously. "And Luni, do you take Silver as your stone cold mate?" Zey turned to Luni. "I do." She answered quickly while tearing up a little bit.

"Are there any objections? Speak now, or forever hold your peace." Zey spoke to the crowd. Only silence rained. "Therefore, I pronounce you both mrrandii and memamosal. May the union between the Tenku and Artemis clan last forever!" Zey declared.

Luni and I connected our heads together, and all of the dragons in the crowd breathed their elements into the air as the humans continued clapping and yelling and crying. But in the midst of all that, someone called out.

"WAIT!" A little girl stepped out in the middle of the crowd. She looked twelve. Just about Ajin's age. "I think you should look at the city." She pointed over the dressing rooms. Me and Luni hovered over and gasped at a sight for dead eyes.

The city was ran through and destroyed. Darkness was being spread sorcerers and witches had stormed the residence. Anyone left behind... they were the screams and roars that were made silent by Shawn and Skyla as the smoke of their bodies filled the air.

"Oh and one more thing!" The little girl called to us again, I looked down and noticed that unstable dark energy was swirling around her body, and into a ball behind her back.

"The name is Sally Suri." She released the orb of energy, and almost the entire area was destroyed. Me and Luni protected ourselves just fine. But the others... I knew there would be some casualties.
