NOVEMBER

A white gown made of cashmere, as it always is for Victoria. She combs her hair and clears her throat. Feels funny in there. She thinks to herself, " This is it, Vic. The big moment. You will be Katie's wife. No bad guys to get in the way… well, Chloe might do something stupid, but nothing bad. " She pauses and shrugs her shoulders with a smile. " Naaaah, this is our day. It's her day… oh, Katie. "

A knock at the door is heard and Colin steps inside. He asks, "Ready, Vic?"

Victoria turns to see her father and grins before telling him, "As ready as I'll ever be."

Colin loops his arm around hers as she grabs a bouquet of red roses from before her mirror. The two walk to the doors leading into the Main Hall of the Latter Day Church of Christ's Will. Two choir boys open the door for them, leading into the church. Inside sat friends and family alike, a number combined all too numerous to list. But at the front was Kate, accompanied by Richard. She too is dressed in a white gown with glitter on the dress, shimmering like an angel as the sun shines on her. As Victoria draws nearer, she exchanges smiles with Kate. As she draws nearer, both Max and Zara take a few shots of the ceremony with professional cameras shipped in directly from the Chase Space.

Victoria reaches the front of the aisle. Both Colin and Richard step away from their daughters as the two lovers stand before one another, smiling behind their veils.

The priest, Father Lawrence, speaks joyously as everyone in the aisles takes their seats: "We are gathered here today to celebrate the unity and eternal friendship present within these two young lovers, to celebrate how thankful we are to be here for these two, and to celebrate the holy matrimony of which these two will spend the rest of their lives together. You may exchange your vows."

"Kate. My sweet Kate. You've been the light of my life in the times that were darkest for me. Times where I had to face the past and my many, many mistakes, and you helped me be better than I ever was. Than I ever will be, maybe. I'd like to spend every remaining moment of my life by your side, and I'd love for you to be with me in the rest of mine."

"Victoria, you're the golden goose of my life. The person who has been with me through the trying times we live in, and across several state lines. Although we met on a very, very rocky beginning, everything after that has been simply the best. You've inspired me and my view on the world, that people can change and be good. And for that, I'm happy to be with you for the rest of my life."

Father Lawrence asks, "Kathryn Beverly Marsh, do you take Miss Chase to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

Kate smiles at Victoria and tells her, "I do."

Father Lawrence asks, "Victoria Marib-"

Victoria starts clutching her throat, her face growing blue as she does so. Suddenly, she falls to her knees as Father Lawrence rushes to her side and asks, "Miss Chase?"

Kate holds Victoria's hands and looks her in the face, panicked: "Vic?"

In the crowd, Max realizes what is happening, remarking, "Oh, god."

Victoria's eyes widen as she spits out a pink Moth. The pink Moth. She yells angrily at it as it writhes on the floor, "AGH!"

The Moth takes flight, screaming gleefully, "YESSSS! FREEDOMMMMMMM!"

Chloe squints at the Moth and says, "The fuck?"

Kate rubs Victoria's back and asks her, "Are you okay?"

Victoria opens her mouth and sticks her tongue out, seeing that it is covered in pink fur. Quickly, she wipes a lot of it away with her hands. With her tongue mostly cleared, she tells her, "I'm fine."

The Moth flaps her wings in Victoria's face and Kate aims a finger-gun at the villain. The Moth sees "Thanks for the ride, Vicky!" As the Moth flies into the ceiling of the Church to escape through the belltower, Victoria flips her off with two middle fingers.

Kate helps Victoria rise back up to her feet. Father Lawrence speaks to the crowd and the brides, telling them, "I apologise for the inconvenience, everyone! May we continue?"

Victoria looks at him with exhaustion. She says, "Yes please."

Father Lawrence asks, "Ah. So, Victoria Maribeth Chase, do you take Miss Marsh to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

Looking around for any sign of other threats and spotting none, Victoria blurts out quickly and happily, "Yes-yes-I-do-I-do-yes-I-do! I do!"

"If anyone objects to this here marriage, then speak now or forever hold your peace." Silence… Good. "Then, it is my honor to pronounce you two wedded eternally! You may kiss the bride!"

Victoria and Kate lift up their veils and run into each other's arms, kissing as the sun beams down on them. Everyone applauds and everyone cheers as the two wives smile at each other in between kisses.

Looking to the crowd, Victoria tosses her bouquet to them. It flies through the air into the hands of Chloe Price. She looks at the bouquet, looks at Max, and smiles.

Holding out a printout of the wedding invitation for his Enforcer friends to see, Tangi jokingly remarks, "Mawwiage! Mawwiage bwought dem togethah… today."

Elmer lets out a laugh. "Good one, Tangi!"

Damon looks at it closely and claims, "We shoulda been there. We'd've had 'em all in one place. One place to weed 'em out!"

Bedlam remarks to his associates, "As delicious as that sounds, marriage is a holy temple that even I do not interfere in. Only a soulless monster would do such a thing."

SLAM opens the front door to the Enforcers' lair. "I'M BAAAAAACK!" In flies the Moth.

The Enforcers stand to confront her and ask, "Who are you?"

"It's me! Dolly! I'm my own spirit animal now!"

Damon asks, "We can do that?"

Elmer asks, "Yo, what's mine?"

The Moth flutters around Elmer's spiky head of hair and tells him, "I dunno. Porcupine?" She moves onto Bedlam and lands on his ribboned shoulder. "Good to be back, boss man Bedlam."

Bedlam looks at the Moth. "I sensed you weren't wholly dead."

"Oh, I was dead. But I had an ace up my sleeve. Or rather, down Victoria Chase's throat. But now, with the gang almost all together, it's time to go for the jugular." The Moth flutters around the room sinisterly.

Bedlam claps his thorn-and-ribbon fingers together and says, "Indeed. Time to initiate Operation: Y.E.S."

As the Moth flies past Tangi, the clown thinks to himself. "Good joke. "

The Moth tells him mentally, "Thanks, Tangster. "

Sitting in a limousine, Victoria and Kate plop kiss upon kiss on one another. As Victoria nuzzles Kate's neck, she tells her, "I like this." She drops a kiss on Kate's forehead and adds, "Fuck the end of the world. We'll live forever."

Kate lies her head on Victoria's chest as the two begin dozing off to sleep together, hands held in marriage. "Damn right, Vic."
