I can't believe it but I'm almost done with this story!
The next chapter is the epilouge and there might be a sequel.
Who knows?
For some reason I decided I'd replace Ludwig's POVs with Lavender. I hated writing his POVs, even though he's my favorite.
Disclaimer: I only own Grace, Annie, Marc, Lavender, Mulberry, Rosie, Amethyst, and Hunter
Grace POV
I stepped into the Domship, only to find a altar inside. "What is this?" I shouted as I walk in, seeing Peach and Amethyst tied up. "I knew you couldn't miss our wedding!" a voice called, and before I knew it I was standing next to Ludwig, in front of a pastor. I tried to get out of his grip, but I couldn't. "Speak now, or forever hold your peace." This was my last chance, now or never, or I'd be stuck with him forever."Why was I dragged into this? I don't want this I honestly don't." I tell the pastor, but he obviously didn't give a crap. "Stop! She doesn't want this! I love her, not him." Marc stood up, I guess he was spying. He walked up to the altar and slapped Ludwig in the face. I watched as he let go of me and he screamed in pain. Marc took my hand and we ran off, knowing what would happen next. "After them!" I knew who it was. no doubt. A ton of koopa guards were after us, I looked for my bag of power-ups, it was nowhere to be seen. I decided what I had to do, there was no other way. "I have to do it. I have to marry him." I say quietly."It's just safer this way." "No it's not. He'll abuse you, he'll hurt you. I don't want that." He picked me up off the ground and ran faster. He stops running, and we see Lavender and Mulberry. "Mulberry!" I smile and try to hug her. "There they are!" Marc puts me down and Lavender hands everyone a strange looking power-up. "What is it?" Annie asks, I didn't even notice her, she was so quiet. "How do I use it?" Hunter and Marc ask, at the same time. "It's a invincible fireflower, you and the fire will be both uncapable of defeat. And you don't even have to know how to use it, it comes to your mind naturally." I aimed at Ludwig, seeing him front and center. I see Bowser and Iggy also. I take my time, and I hit him, I hit him hard.

Lavender POV
I watched as Ludwig fell, I couldn't believe my eyes. I had finally avenged my parents, or so I thought. He got back up and dusted off an invincible fireflower, Grace just stood there in awe. She didn't know he was immune to even the strongest of fireflowers, I didn't either. She shot him again, this time he was slightly injured, to her surprise. Mulberry takes a shot, and Bowser Jr falls at just the itty bitty fireball the hits him. What a baby. He doesn't get up, like his older brother. He looked dead. Bowser looked at his youngest son and gave Mulberry mean look. "You killed my son!" A stream of fire was headed towards Mulberry and Grace flew in front of her, and she fell to the ground. Dead and gone. Grace was dead. "Father! What have you done!" Ludwig was looking at Grace. "No, what have you done!" You caused this whole mess! You killed my best friend and you are both responsible!" Annie was in tears. She ran away to cry on her own, not to be bothered. Everyone stopped fighting to focus on the two deaths. "She only wanted to live in peace." I say looking down, someone comes out from behind, Lemmy Koopa. "I can fix this, I can bring them both back." Seriously?" "Yes I can, but only one time can this spell be used. By anyone in the world." Lemmy works his magic, and we stand there and watch him. He chanted strange words and moved his wand around. Then Grace opens her eyes, a miracle. "What happened?" she asks, she was able to speak. She looked at her skin, still burnt from the flames. She looks at Bowser Jr and sees him, he wasn't dead anymore. "Wasn't I dead?" "You were, for a little bit. I saved you both." "Thank you, Lemmy. I am truly grateful." She gives him a hug, of course. She looks around some more, and taking in the fact that she was alive again. I saw Ludwig, he looked like he learned something, he learned a lesson. I think everyone learned a lesson that day, especially the Koopa family, the lesson was how love and cherish. To love and cherish life.

Grace POV
"I am alive." I tell myself "I am alive." I watched as Rosie started the car, and drove on the river bridge, we were going back to Grabill, with Amethyst and Peach. We made peace with the Koopas, they all learned something when I died and when I came back to life, something valueble. "When I was dead, I saw heaven. Heaven is real." I tell everyone "The streets were gold, so were the people, but not literally. John Lennon, George Harrison, John Bonham, and Jim Morrison were there, they sang for the people, and for me. They were all young and happy. I liked that so much, but I decided I'd rather be alive and here with you." "Really?" They all smiled. I looked down at my skin, bit was burnt. They told me I saved Mulberry from the fire. I was happy, and no longer dead.
