PUSS IN BOOTS 2: LOVE AND ROYALTY

INTRODUCTION

THE MARRIAGE

HELLO, EVERYBODY.

I'D YOU MISS ME? I'M SURE YOU DID. DON'T WORRY. I HAVE A STORY THAT I WROTE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MONTH TO MAKE IT UP TO YOU.

IF YOU LIKE PUSS IN BOOTS, YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE MY PUSS IN BOOTS STORIES. WARNING: THIS WILL SOUND A LOT LIKE SHREK 2, BUT WITH A FEW CHANGES.

WELL, I HOPE YOU ENJOY.

Just one year ago, the greatest adventure came for a certain orange cat, a tuxedo she-cat, and a gold loving egg. After running away from two outlaws name Jack and Jill, growing a giant beanstalk, snatching the golden goose, being stabbed in the back by someone's old friend, thrown in jail, saving an entire village from the Great Terrier, an old friend sacrificing his life and sticking with the girl of his dreams, Puss in Boots has lived a life of love and wonders with the one and only Kitty Softpaws. Throughout that whole year, he met Shrek, Fiona, Donkey and the rest of the gang. Now a year has passed and the greatest moment of Puss`s life is about to happen. He was about to marry his true love inside Fiona`s home, set up by the king and queen of Far, Far, Away.

As of that moment, Puss in Boots was in the men's dressing room, putting on the tuxedo that he bought especially for his and Kitty's special night. He took a deep breath, a shudder of fear striking through him like lightning. He knew everyone in Far, Far Away would be at the wedding. Even his own mother, Imelda, was attending. She traveled all the way from Spain just to be at the wedding. At that moment, she would be helping Kitty get ready. Puss sighed. He was excited, but nervous more than less.

The door to the room flew open. Shrek walked inside with Donkey trailing behind him. Shrek had a smile plastered on his face while Donkey just began talking.

"Hey, Puss," Donkey said, "Man, I cannot wait for this wedding to start. Say, Puss, are you nervous? I can understand why, but I'm sure you're pretty excited as well. This is about to be the greatest day of your life. A life filled with love and happiness. Say, are we going to eat dinner first or cut the cake? To be honest, I'm in the mood for some cake. Say, what are we eating for dinner? Are we gonna have some roasted lobster or pork and apples? Pork and apples are pretty good, but I would love me some roasted lobster. Do you mind asking the chef to put some roasted lobster on my plate? That would be a very kind gesture."

"Donkey, Puss and Kitty have already chosen the dinner," Shrek said, "We're having smoked fish. And if you're wondering, yes, we're having cake before dinner."

"What is it with cats having some kind of addiction to fish? They already have some big thing with milk. What are we having to drink? I was thinking that some apple cider would be pretty good."

"Donkey, this is Puss and Kitty's wedding, not yours. I don't get why you want to be the planner. I came here to talk to Puss alone. Why don't you go ahead and get everybody ready for the ceremony? That would be very helpful of you."

"Don't be running me off that fast, Shrek. I got something I need to say to Puss myself." Walking up to Puss, Donkey stood straight up. "Puss, I just have one thing to say. Women can be difficult to handle. I know that very well. I am married to a dragon. If Kitty ever starts becoming a little bit out of hand, do whatever you can to calm her down. That's a life lesson given to you by yours truly. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a ceremony to help get ready for your big day." Finally shutting up, Donkey left the room.

Shrek sighed in relief. "Finally, I thought he never leave."

"Lo siento, mi amigo," Puss said, bowing his head.

"Pardon me?"

"I am sorry for not speaking up earlier, Shrek. I suppose I have some last minute jitters inside me."

"Looks like you got some butterflies fluttering around in your tummy. I understand what you're going through. I was the same way when Fiona and I were about to get married. I loved her too much to ever step away, though. I'm sure you feel the same way about Kitty."

"I do. I love Kitty more than the stars and the moon. I even love her more than the sun. She's the ray of sunshine that wakes me up in the morning. She is the twinkling stars and the bright moon when I go to bed at night. She is the center of my world."

"Who knows? She might be as nervous as you."

"You're right. She might be."

Inside the dressing room at the end of the hall, Kitty looked as though she was having a panic attack. Imelda and Fiona were doing all they could to keep her calm, but she just kept freaking out. Sure, she was wearing the wedding dress of her dreams, the flowers she always thought were her favorite were placed around her head, and she had the perfect shoes, but the nerves inside her mind were shocked. She was shaking all over and had no way of calming down.

Fiona placed her hand on Kitty's shoulder. "Kitty, everything is fine. There's nothing to be freaking out about. This is the greatest day of your life. Aren't you excited?"

"I am, Fiona," Kitty said, "My heart is happy with joy. I'm just nervous. So nervous I don't even know how to calm myself down."

"I've seen plenty of people have nervous breakdowns like this," Imelda said, "Especially children from my orphanage. There was one girl who had nervous breakdowns so bad, I had to give her a glass of warm milk and put her down for a nap. She calmed right down after waking up a little while later."

"Well, we don't really have the time to give Kitty a nap," Fiona said.

"There's no time for naps," Kitty said, "We have too much to do right now. We have a wedding to put on, but I'm too nervous to go out there."

"The important thing we can do right now is calming you down. I'm sure Puss is as nervous as you."

"You think so?"

"Of course, but I'm also sure that he can't wait to see you walk down the aisle. He's waiting for you out there. You don't want to keep him waiting, do you?"

Kitty took a deep breath. "No, I don't. This is our big day. I want it to be special. The only way it will be is if I get out there and say my vows and state the two words 'I do.'"

"That's the spirit."

The queen opened the door, motioning for her daughter. Imelda overheard and said, "It's time to start the ceremony. Come on, Kitty. Your groom awaits you."

Kitty walked out of the room, walking up to the doors that led inside the church. King Howard was standing there, as a frog, and stood on Kitty's shoulder in order to give her away to Puss. Unfortunately, she had no father to walk her down the aisle, so the king offered to do so instead. Once the first few bars of Wedding March played, Kitty slowly walked down the aisle, a boutique of roses in her hand and a smile patched on her face. Puss was the same way, only his eyes stayed on hers the entire time, subtracting the veil. Once she made it to Puss, he removed the veil from covering her face, smiling at her. Kitty smiled back.

The minister cleared his throat. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to see the beautiful marriage of Puss in Boots and Kitty Softpaws. Before we begin, if there are any objections for these two to not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace."

"I object!" Donkey exclaimed.

"Me, too," Shrek said.

The both of them started laughing. Donkey stood up. "Sorry about that. We're just joking around."

"Continue on."

The minister nodded. "Very well. Let us begin the ceremony. The bride and groom will speak their vows to one another. The bride will go first."

Kitty took a deep breath, looking straight into Puss`s eyes. "I love you with all my heart, Puss. I promise never to walk away when problems worsen. I will stick with you through good times and bad. I will stick by your side at every moment of our lives. We shall never split apart and our love will grow stronger with every moment that pass. I shall love you forever, Puss. I will never leave you."

Puss closed his eyes, looking straight into Kitty's eyes. "I love you with all my heart. I cannot live without seeing you everyday for the rest of my life. I promise to stick by your side through happy times and worse times. I will say that my life is not complete if you aren't in it. My life would be missing a page in our fairy tale stories if you weren't in it with me. I promise to never leave you no matter what, Kitty. I will love you forever."

Tears of joy streamed from Kitty's eyes. "I will love you forever, too."

"Now, we can begin the marriage procedure," the minister said, "Puss in Boots, do you take Kitty Softpaws to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, rich or poor, life and death, for as long as you both shall live."

"I do," Puss said.

"And do you, Kitty Softpaws, take Puss in Boots to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, rich or poor, life and death, for as long as you both shall live."

"I do," Kitty said.

"Now it's time to give each other the rings."

Puss placed the ring for Kitty on her finger. "With this ring, I do be wed."

Kitty placed the ring for Puss on his finger. "With this ring, I do be wed."

"By the power vested in me, I know pronounce you husband and wife," the minister said, "You may now kiss the bride."

The two cats brought their lips together, enjoying the most greatest kiss of their lives. A kiss like that deserve a life filled with happiness and live. Their adventure in love will never end.

SO, DID YOU LIKE IT? I REALLY WANNA KNOW.
