~Your Pov~

I contuied to climb up until I ended up grabbing some sort of leg. I look up to see the corpse groom "My love you could've used the stairs silly!" Corpse groom happily said helping me up. 

"Oh isn't the view beautiful. It takes my breath away...well, it would if I had any," He joked as he held me close to him. This felt so familiar to me but I couldn't put my finger on it.

We took a seat on a bench I look up at him "I'm sorry about what happened to you but I really need to get back home," I sadly explain. 

"This is your home now my dear," He says but I shaked my head. "B-but I don't even know your name," I confessed. "Wow that's a great way to start a marriage," I hear the maggot exclaim.

"Shut up," He quietly exclaim before looking back at me." it's Emiliano," Emiliano happily said as his name sounded so familiar. "Oh, I almost forgot I have something for you, my dear. It's a wedding present," Emiliano exclaim as slightly shake the box. I open the box to find it full of bones.

The box soon started to shake as all the bones came to altogether to shape into a cat. "Oh thank you, Emiliano," I happily thanked him as he smiles at you. The cat came up to me holding a collar. "It's C/N oh it's been so long," I happily said as I started to pet C/N he purred. 

Suddenly those words came back to my mind "Y/N I promise one day I will come and find you and when I do I promise I will marry you,"  I sigh "I'm sorry Emiliano but I can't marry you. I already made a promise," I regretfully said. 

"Y/N my dear we're already married," he said showing his ring. I sigh as I stood up looking up "I made a promise to somebody I was close when I was a child," I explain. Emiliano sighs coming on my right side "I don't blame you I also made a promise but I carelessly broke it. Now I'll never see her again," Emiliano sighs.

"We both have something in common," I said as he rises an eyebrow. "What?" He curiously asked. "We're both terrible keeping promises," I joked as Emiliano chuckled. Maybe I could find a way to get back home. "But since we're married maybe you could meet my parents," I said as Emiliano smiled.

"What a fantastic idea my love. Where are they buried?" He curiously asked. "Oh umm," I try t come up how to say it. "What? what is it, my love?" He curiously asked. "Welll they're not from around here," I admitted. "Where are they?" He questioned as I pointed up. "Oh, they're still alive," He answers.

I shyly nodded my head "Well that is a problem," He mumbled thinking about what we should do. Soon C/N came up to Emiliano "What's that C/N? Oh, no we couldn't possibly. Oh well, if you put it like that," Emiliano had a conversation with C/N as I was confused. "Excuse me..but what?" I curiously asked as Emiliano smiled.

"Elder Gutknecht," Emiliano answers as he held my head.

"Elder Gutknecht...are you here," He called out. I looked around the old dusky library. "Hello, are you here Elder Gutknecht," He called out again. "Hello...anybody home,"He called out as crowds flew in. An old skeleton appeared behind an altar. "There you are!" He exclaimed as we stood in the middle of the library. 

"Oh, my dear boy. There you are," Elder Gutknecht reasoned. "I want you to meet my lovely wife Y/N," He brought me up to  Elder Gutknecht. 

"What is that! Wife!" Elder Gutknecht exclaims. "Pleasure to meet you, sir," I bow as Elder Gutknecht nodded his head "We need to go up. Upstairs t visit the land of the living," He explains as Elder Gutknecht scratched his head.

"Tha land of the living. Oh my dear," Elder Gutknecht exclaims as we started to walk down the stairs. "Please Gutknecht," He begs. 

"Why do you go up there if people are dying to get down here," Elder Gutknecht explains as I look down at my locket. "Sir I beg you to help. It will mean so much to us," I said holding Emiliano's hand.

"I don't know. It's just not natural, "Elder Gutknecht explains. "Please Elder Gutknecht surely there must be something you can do," Emiliano begged Elder Gutknecht. 

"Mmm let me see what I can do," Elder Gutknecht said as he started to look around the old library. "Where did I put that book," Elder Gutknecht says searching for certain books.

"Ah there's the one," He blew the dusk from the book. Elder Gutknecht started to flip around pages.  "So glad you thought about his my love," Emiliano whispered as I nodded my head. "M-Me too," I quietly whisper back. "Now where were we?" Elder Gutknecht asked.

"The Ukrainian hunting spell, "Emiliano answers as he squeezed my hand. "Here we have it," Gutknecht answers as we nodded our heads. "Just remember when you want to come back say 'Hopscotch" Gutknecht told us.

"Hopscotch," Emiliano repeated "That's it, "Elder Gutknecht answers as he cracks the egg opened white powder flew on us. I open my eyes to see the moonlight.
