Akito and the Loonatics

chapter 154

Cherry sat at the organ bench, she decided to play the Wedding March, mostly because her husband asked her to, but she didn't seem to have any objections like she did when she was a teenager.

Lexi was being fitted into her dress as the girls were among her. "I can't believe this is really happening..." she smiled.

"You look absolutely beautiful." Estelle smiled.

"Absolutely lovely." Eloise added.

"Tres magnifique." Felicity cooed.

"You really do, Lexi." Jenny smiled.

"Thanks, girls," Lexi smiled to them. "Oh, I feel so nervous and excited."

"You're nervouscited." Estelle said.

"Uh, yeah, that." Lexi giggled to the word.

"I wonder how the boys are doing." Felicity wondered as her voice seemed to change.

"Fliss, are you okay?" Lexi asked, looking back at her. "Your voice sounds different... You look a little taller too..."

"Must've had a growth spurt." Felicity shrugged.

"Yeah, that must be it." Jenny said.

Meanwhile, with Ace and his best man and ring bearer...

"Aw, man, this is really it..." Ace sounded more nervous than both nervous and excited like Lexi was.

"Ace, don't worry, it's going to be just fine." Akito soothed.

"Oh, what if we forget the rings?" Ace grew paranoid. "What if someone stops the wedding? What if--!?"

"And stop, no one is going to stop the wedding and the rings are right where they're suppose to be." Akito told him.

"Akito's right." Vincent said.

Ace sighed. "I'm sorry, guys, I'm just so nervous!"

"Come on, this from a Guardian Strike Sword master?" Akito smirked. "We got this in the bag, nothing's gonna happen, and you and Lexi are gonna live happily ever after."

"Hmm..." Ace pouted, then looked down to him. "Maybe you're right."

"Of course I'm right, now you go out there and marry the woman, or in this case, the female rabbit you love." Akito told him.

Ace sighed and took a deep breath. "Okay... I think I'm ready."

Cherry cracked her fingers an played Sunrise, Sunset for Ace. And where at first Ace was confident, but then when he got to his spot and started to wait for Lexi, he started to get nervous again. Cherry's fingers danced across the ivory keyboard as it played the music.

"Such lovely and graceful hands..." Forte whispered as he watched his wife's youthful hands at work.

Captain Planet saw the expression on Ace's face and smirked playfully. Ace took a deep breath and gulped slightly. Cherry kept a look-out for Lexi to arrive so she could play the second song that everybody knew and loved in wedding traditions.

After a few minutes, the wedding started and Lexi came in, wearing a beautiful dress after the girls came in on cue. Cherry saw that, then played the Wedding March. The others looked to see Lexi coming, so they stood up for her as the song played. Ace smiled anxiously at the end of the aisle. Jenny, Felicity, and Estelle followed Lexi and Eloise threw her flowers with a joyful smile on her face.

Ace looked jaw-dropped as he saw how beautiful Lexi looked in her wedding dress. Lexi smiled fondly to Ace as she walked her way over to him as the girls followed her. Once they were aligned, Cherry stopped playing the organ and it was now time for Ace and Lexi to give the final 'I do's' to each other. Luckily for them, Zadavia still agreed to be the priest for the wedding.
