As morning broke, Josh had traveled through the forest and made his way to the neighborhood where Tyler once lived, and where their friendship was born.

He remembered when he first met him, and how charmed he was by his rare beauty, and how kind and innocent he was to everyone who loved him, including Josh himself.

After 2 years of being together, and 2 days of being engaged, Josh was certain that Tyler was the boy he was destined to spend the rest of his life with.

But first, he needed to do what needed to be done to save their future marriage, and Tyler's rare beauty.

At last, when he arrived to the neighborhood, he saw a sign which read, "Clancy Way", which was the street where Tyler's home resides. Seeing the sign, Josh knew immediately where to go, and he didn't waste any time getting there.

While walking through the streets, everything seemed to be the same, but there wasn't much cheer or anything that gave him the sign that people lived in the neighborhood.

It was as if no one lived there at all, except for the wicked and evil aunt.

Josh focused his thoughts on his future Tyler. He could see him walking down the isle in a meadow, all dressed in a floral kimono, with a bouquet of roses in his hands.

He even had flowers in his beautiful brunette hair.

He saw his knightly friends standing with him. Gerard was his best man, while Mark was Tyler's maid of honor. Brycen was the main groomsman, while Sydney and Imogene were the bridesmaids.

Then, little Gertie was the flower boy, and Harry was the ring-bearer.

It was a beautiful wedding, filled with nothing but love, and nobody was gonna bring them down.

Josh kept his mind directly upon the wedding that was to come when he returned, until he finally arrived at Tyler's home, where the wicked wench lived.

The man pressed his hand against the handle of the knob, while his other hand locked on the hilt of his sword.

He closed his eyes and silently whispered to himself.

"For Tyler."

Josh took a deep breath, twisted the knob, and walked inside.

The house was completely empty, and no sound was made. Everything looked the same, but the eeriness was strange and frightening.

But, Josh wasn't afraid. He didn't turn back or regret what he was trying to do. He kept walking into the house, until he found himself walking upstairs.

When he made it to the final step, he saw a room, then a long hall which led to the master bedroom, which is where the aunt must be. Before he could start walking there, he walking into the room.

It was Tyler's room.

It was a small room, but it looked like a garden with branch and flower decorations. His bed was a small size bed, with light colored sheets and pillows.

Across from his bed was a leave rug, and there was a little ukulele leaning against the wall.

Josh remembered when Tyler used to play for him on certain days when they'd hang out. Josh was so intrigued by the child's beautiful voice, that he wished he would've told him that he loved him then.

But now, Tyler could play for him everyday as his soon to be wife-man.

After looking around his room, Josh walked out, then made his way down the hallway towards the aunt's room. He figured maybe Helena would come out and help him, but he knew that he needed to face the evil woman alone.
