(first published) Me: How did you like my first chapter?
Flash: Too little romance dialogue. I like romance.
Me: Well, my story genre is action/adventure not romance.
Fizz: Sprinkle it with some romance. It would increase ratings.
Me: Hmm. Increased popularity. Ok! I will add a little romance but not in this chapter. After all it is after a cliffhanger.

Me: Got to revise my story.
Sleet: Good luck.
Me: Thank you.
Corona: Nobody has reviewed your story for a long time.
Me: Yeah I need more reviews. Positive reviews tell the author that this story is going in the right direction.
Gust: Your story sucks!
Me: Come over here Gust. (Smacks Gust into pulp)
Me: I'm explaining how these couples came to be. I'm not very good at writing love scenes so don't flame me because of it. I'm only a boy who has a sick mind about love. These love scenes are as serious as they could be so don't expect them to be funny.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Night appeared in New Vale. The adepts went back to their dwellings. When Sheba saw Felix, she immediately held hands with him. Felix seemed like he didn't care and held hands with her. Mia tried the same strategy with Isaac. Isaac seemed quite accepting and held her hand very tightly. They walked back to their house and were immediately greeted by Isaac's parents. Dora (Isaac's mom this is a reminder) asked,
" How was work today for both of you?" Both said,
" Fine." They didn't like to carry the conversation any further. Isaac and Mia both smelled hot stew. They immediately sat down by the table. Kyle (Isaac's dad I'm not so sure) held a spoon and poured hot soup into four big bowls. Isaac and Mia helped carry the bowls back to the table. Everybody in the household sat in the table. While they were eating, Kyle inquired,
" I've always wanted to ask you this question, Mia. Why have you chosen to stay in our house?" Mia was a little stunned by the directness of the question. Mia placed her spoon nicely on the table and replied,
" Um. this is a tough question to answer." Dora chimed in,
" Don't worry. We'll understand." Mia's mind was racing back and forth between either confessing to Isaac's parent that she loved Isaac or just try to deter from the question. She didn't have the confidence to confess. All she did was blush. Isaac interfered,
" Mother, Father, I don't think this is the time to ask these kind of questions." Mia was happy that Isaac helped her out of tight situation. Her facial expression turned normal. Dora then said,
" The reason we asked this question was to identify whether you were more than just friends." Kyle added,
" We've built another house with the help of some friendly neighbors. We thought that maybe you both could live in that house without adults getting in your way." Before Mia could speak, Isaac replied,
" Thank you mom and dad. We'll take good care of ourselves."
" Do you agree to this proposition, Mia?" Dora asked.
" This is a very nice offer. Thank you Ms. Isaac and Mr. Isaac (don't know their last names)." Kyle said in a stern voice,
" Then it's settled. Tomorrow both of you will move to the house one block south of our house."

While this was taking place, Sheba and Felix were in the upstairs bedroom of their house. Sheba was more confident than Mia even though she was younger. She aggressively sat on the lap of Felix. Felix followed the vibe and started using his hands to caress her soft silky hair. She mustered all the confidence she had and asked,
" Do you love me?" Felix was a little afraid with the openness of Sheba but he answered strongly,
" I do."
" Me too." Sheba said softly and lay back on Felix's body. Felix asked,
" Remember the time when I jumped off the Venus lighthouse?"
" Of course, I did. You've saved my life."
" I was willing to sacrifice my life for you during that incident."
" I always have respected you, Felix. That incident just tied the knot for me."
" When I jumped off that lighthouse, I only thought of us being together."
" You've showed me so many things during this journey. In every waking moment I was always thinking of you. You were my knight in shining armor."
" It's getting late. Do you want to sleep in my bed?"
" I don't think I'm ready yet."
" I won't push you. You can take as long as you want."
" Thank you for understanding my feelings."
" My pleasure."

At the other side of town, Garet was lying in his bed. He couldn't stop dreaming of Jenna. He pictured her as a goddess. She always touched no matter how mean she was. Garet respected her assertive and uptight character. He couldn't live the rest of life just thinking of her. He needed to take action. Just then, Garet's grandfather appeared in his bedroom and said,
" May I help you with your situation right now?"
" How did you I was thinking of ."?
" Maybe because you were muttering Jenna's name at the top of your lungs. Your sisters are laughing at you."
" Oh ok. Tell me how to confess my love to her. I need to know if you would love me back."
" Hmm. I've ordered workers to build another house just for this situation. If you can tell Jenna to live with you, then you will have all the time in the world to build feelings for each other."
" How will I woo her to my dwelling?"
" Do the Romeo and Juliet trick. Go to her house and let your feelings for her. If she also loves you then she would definitely agree to go with you. How's that?"
" You're saying I should go first."
" This is what a man is suppose to do."
" Thank you, grandfather."
" No problem. I will always help my grandson in any way."
Back at Isaac's house, Isaac and Mia were packing their stuff to live in a new house together. They were sitting next to each other packing their own bundles of clothes. Once Isaac was finished folding his clothes, he helped Mia fold her clothes. He asked,
" Do you think our relationship will be a happy one?"
" Of course it will. I always try to think optimistically."
" Your happiness and elegance is what attracts me to you."
" Why, thank you. You've always pulled attracted with your looks and strong sense of morality."
" Maybe living together will further progress our relationship."
" Let's start with the promise that we will always help each other when in need."
" Of course, I will agree with that."
" I think this is a very good start"
(Nothing like a good slow relationship.)
Garet's sister gave him some roses to help him with the cause. Garet prepared his lines in front of his grandfather. The grandfather gave him reminders of what to say. Finally Garet was ready. He raced towards Jenna's house. He yelled at the top of his lungs,
" You are my love, Jenna." The window opened but it wasn't Jenna. It was Felix, who said,
" I never knew you loved Jenna. If you want to confess your love to her go to the other side of the house." Felix closed the window. Giggling and gossip followed. There were also sounds of kissing. Garet couldn't take it anymore and shouted,
" What the fuck are you doing up there with Sheba." Felix opened the window and replied,
" None of your business." Felix slammed the window. Garet decided not to interrupt them and dashed towards the other side. He then yelled,
" I have come for you, Jenna." Finally Jenna appeared by the windowsill. She was dressed in a beautiful pink gown adorned with white strips. Garet kneeled down and raised his hand in a diagonal position. He continued,
" You are the passion in my heart. You've inspired me to do things that I would've never done before. We can be much more than friends." Jenna listened but didn't respond. Garet held both hands to his chest in an x- fashion and said,
" I always have been thinking about you since we met each other. You were the most beautiful thing in the world." Garet paused and racked his brain for those famous lines. He finally spoke,
" It is the east, and Jenna is the sun. Is that right? Oh well. Will you meet me by the new house I built just for the both of us?" Jenna was touched by the Garet's beautiful speech. She realized that these lines came from his heart. She always had a liking for Garet because of his looks but now Garet has pulled her in like a fish pole reeling in the catch. Jenna replied,
" Your words touched my heart. I will go to your den tonight. You have my word." Garet's spirits rose tenfold. He waited for Jenna to come downstairs. To his surprise, Jenna actually jumped down from the window. She wanted to test Garet's dedication. Garet immediately jumped forward and caught Jenna in his arms. She looked at him with her crimson red eyes. Garet was struck in awe. He carried her (yes carried her) all the way back to their new home.

It has been half year, since the lighting of the Sol lighthouses. Isaac, Mia, Garet, Jenna, Felix, and Sheba were discussing about their triple marriage. They all gathered at Garet's house. Garet and Jenna cooked some food and brought it to the kitchen table. The aroma went straight through their nostrils. Garet said, " Finally I made some good food. Dig in people!" Garet picked up a chicken bone and ate it like a barbarian and said, " Maybe I should cook more often. My cooking is the best." "Now! Now, pace yourself. Don't be so arrogant but that was why I chose you to be my husband more than anybody else!" Jenna said cheerfully. "I just wished Ivan or Piers were here." Isaac said this while picking his first chicken piece. " We might see them again. You'll never know if we have to go on another quest." Felix replied sarcastically. " Don't make jokes like that, Felix. All I want to think about is a happy marriage. Do you understand me Felix?" Sheba yapped back. " Alright, Alright! I won't jinx our peaceful situation right now." Felix said apologetically. Mia was taking out some paper and placed it on the table. The papers showed what the wedding was suppose to look like. She said, " Right now we have agreed to have our wedding by Mt. Aleph. There will be 3 large wedding cakes for the whole town to eat..." before she could complete Garet said with drool by his mouth, " There is going to be cake! I definitely love cake." Mia slapped Garet in the face and continued. " There would be a symphony to play all the music and I think our invitation has been passed out to everybody in town including Ivan and Piers. I received letters from both of them. Piers said he was busy dealing with the Conservato in Lemuria. Ivan hasn't replied back yet." " Good job with the planning, my angel." Isaac said. Mia blushed. " It looks both Ivan and Piers aren't coming. Is there any objections to the wedding so far because I think it is the best I could think of." " No objections!" everybody said loudly. " The wedding will be next week. We have already got a band and the cakes are being made as we speak. This should give us ample time to prepare ourselves for the most important part of our lives." Isaac said this with gusto.
A week later, the whole town got ready to witness the powerful adepts finally get married. People were rushing to wake up and dress up for the big event. Kids were running around the whole town rallying the news. Isaac, Garet, and Felix were in a house near the wedding site, getting prepared to walk down the aisle. All 3 of them were wearing white suits with a red tie. These new suits were comfortable and made them look sexier. They were the first ones in the town to try on this prototype (remember Alchemy is slowly rising the technology level). Felix was first to comment,
" These suits are a little heavy for my preference." Garet countered,
" I think these suits look perfect on me. Maybe be you're just too skinny."
" Why you asshole!" Felix was smack Garet in the face when Isaac stepped in between them and yelled,
" We don't want to have a purple eye before our wedding." Felix backed away from Garet. They continued dressing up and eventually Garet asked,
" Should I bring my pack with me? It is good to have it during emergencies." Isaac and Felix yelled,
" No! We don't want to think about anything bad happening before the wedding." Garet agreed because he was too lazy to get his armor and sword anyways. They finally were ready. Isaac said,
" Are you guys ready for the most important event of our lives?"
" Of course we are!" They said in unison. They smacked their chests together in a football manner. Sheba, Jenna, and Mia were also getting prepared. All 3 of them were wearing embroidered gowns with beautiful stones called diamonds. They marveled at the sight of the jewelry. They compared their jewelry. Sheba said, " If you look closely my jewelry is bigger than yours, Jenna." Jenna replied, " My has more curves and it has a better shape." Sheba and Jenna began to argue who had the better diamond on their gown. Mia knew it was going to lead into a catfight so she calmed them down by saying, " We should be focusing on the wedding not the diamonds." " Truce?" " Truce." The girls also wore a veil to cover their faces. It was said that they would remove the veils and kiss their groom once the initiation was over. The girls couldn't wait till that moment.

The townspeople already situated themselves on the chairs provided. The symphony comprised of regular people playing the newly invented piano, guitar, flute and the cute little violin. They didn't have much skill playing those instruments so the music sounded quite terrible. Nobody really paid attention to the music. The priest held his book and was ready to preach. The flower girl threw flowers in the air making it seem more magical. Then it was what everybody was waiting for. Garet and Jenna were the first couple to walk down. Then it was Felix and Sheba. Isaac and Mia proceeded after Felix and Sheba. They were walking down the aisle. People started to cry at seeing this sight and were in awe by the compatibility between suits and gowns. Kraden was crying especially saying, " I couldn't wait to see these children reach their next steps in their lives." The 3 couples appeared in front of the alter. The priest said his stuff such as, (I never been to a wedding, so don't flame me for wrong words.) " Do you take Isaac, Felix, and Garet to be your new-wedded husband?" " I do" Mia, Sheba and Jenna said in unison. " Do you take Mia, Sheba and Jenna as your newly-wedded wife?" " I do" The guys said with gusto. The priest finally concluded,
" You may kiss the bride." The men removed the veils covering the
faces of their wives. They all kissed for a long time. The townspeople
were in celebration. They cheered and cheered. Everybody stood up to
give a standing ovation for the couples. Suddenly there was a rumble
right near the position of where they were.

Me: Don't you hate those village elders. They always think the good guys have done something wrong. The next chapter will be boring because it's got a lot of plot explaining to do.
Flint: A little plot explaining wouldn't hurt.
Me: You think so?

I'm actually a valeshipper not a mudshipper but for some reason there are too many in fan fiction that are mudshippers. To protect myself from flames, I have to follow the crowd. I left the cliffhanger there to entice new readers to my story. I hope you enjoy the changes. Now my genre is Action/Adventure and Romance.
