Chapter 25: Wedding Finale
On the first week of May, it was the most busiest while planning over the wedding for the weekend of Mother's Day.
The Machavelli family were so wealthy, they hired one of the most prestigious European fashion designers in the world to make the wedding outfits. Invitations were written up and delivered to only those relatives still living, and not to mention close friends of the bride and groom.
There were relatives on the Machavelli side: Matthew and Addison Machavelli with their four children Shaina, Andrew, Nathan, and Candace; Katelyn and Scott Norrick with their son Charlie; Damien Machavelli, Joey Machavelli, Maria Machavelli, Rose, Emma, and parents of the Machavelli children, Giovanni and Tamela. Not to mention Shego's brothers: Hego, Mego, and Wego 1 & 2.
There were also friends of the bride and groom invited and also friends of the Machavellis': Ash (Emma's boyfriend), Emily Williams (Damien's girlfriend), Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable (with Rufus), Monkey Fist, DNAmy, Senor Senior Senior and Junior, Duff Killigan, Gill, and Professor Dementor.
The new addition to the Machavelli family of many relatives (bedsides Shego's brothers), was Mrs. Molly Lipsky, whom is Drakken's mother. She was so happy that her son was finally settling down, and thanks to Rose, she wasn't mad that her son was a villain.
Those that lived outside the Pokemon World had to come two days before the wedding. Most of them whom were villains, they were surprised to see Kim Possible. That matter was sorted out after a two hour argument and eventually some peaceable truces until after the wedding.
As the days passed, the final day of the wedding arrived. All the last minute preparations were being made and the guests were starting to arrive, as it was only a little afternoon, but the actual wedding wasn't until two.
The parents of the bride and groom were busy greeting all the guests personally out in the gardens while the bride and groom plus their parties were still getting ready. They were in separate rooms following the tradition that the groom was not allowed to see the bride in her dress before the wedding.
Everyone began taking their seats and the wedding march started playing from a white piano.
The first down the aisle was Maria tossing out red and white rose petals from a small brown basket and smiling in pure innocence. Following down the aisle was Emma, then Kim, and last Rose. These girls were the bridesmaids, except for Maria whom was the flower girl and Rose because she was the maid-of-honor.
Soon the procession reached the alter and stood in their proper locations. A chord was played for five seconds before the pianist continued on with the march; this indicated to the guests that the bride was going to be walking down the aisle next.
Drakken stood at the front of the aisle for what seemed like an eternity along with his best man and other escorts for the bridesmaids. He nervously awaited the arrival of his bride.
Shego suddenly appeared, she was absolutely stunning and Drakkens' mouth wasn't the only one that dropped. No one could believe their eyes, especially Drakken.
"She look's like an angel straight down from Heaven." He thought.
Shego was wearing a knee legnth white dress with white beads in heart shapes on the top and a small silk train. The veil is a simple headband with a lacy veil sewn to the top with little, silk, white roses on the top. She finally reached Drakken at the front of the aisle, and he slowly took her gloved hands in his; they looked at each other full of love and compassion.
"Do you Shego Angeline Sullivan, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to hold in sickness and in health, for richer or poor, till death do you part?" The Priest asked.
"I do." Were the two perfect words that escaped her red lips.
"And do you Drew Theodore Percival Lipsky, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, to hold in sickness and in health, for richer or poor, till death do you part?" The Priest asked.
"I do." The voice was strong, clear and determined.
"May I please have the rings?" The Priest asked as Joey walked up to Shego and Drakken and handed them their rings. Then the couple placed their rings on each other's fingers and the Priest stated. "By the power invested in me by the region of Kanto, I now pronounce you man and wife... you may kiss the bride."
Drakken pulled back the veil to reveal an even more attractive Shego. He looked at her longingly, as the couple slowly brought their lips together and began an incredibly passionate kiss. They finally pulled away and turned to face the congregation.
"I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Drew..." Before the Priest could finish an uproar of cheers and applause exploded from the spectators. The bells tolled and with the help of a microphone the pianist played as loudly as he possibly could, since everyone was now up and walking to the reception.
Afterwards, there was a reception inside the dinning room of the mansion. Everything was fancy and decorated in the tradition of rich families. Congratulations filled the air and so has the delicious smells of food.
When everyone was full of the meal that was given, it was time to really party with dancing, a DJ was hired with his special equipment. Though it was always tradition for the bride and groom to start off with slow dancing, this was Rose's cue to offer her surprise to everyone.
Rose had changed into a sparkly purple dress to knee-length with transparent elbow-length sleeves and sparkly purple high-heeled sandals to match.
She walked up front where the DJ was set up and took a microphone off the handle. "Um... Excuse me, please! I know this is suppose to be the first dance for the bride and groom, but I dedicate this very special song and dance to them."
A song started, very soothing and romantic. The bride and groom shared their first dance, upon listening to their cousin sing.
§SONG§
Na na na na, na na na na
Yeah, yeah
Na na na na, na na na na
I was walking down the street one day
Then I saw you I didn't know what to say
You're eyes were shining
You're smile was so kind
When I saw you I wanted you to be mine
Maybe I don't have the blonde hair you like
Or maybe I don't have eyes like the sky
And I'm not sure if I'm the girl in your dreams
But I can show you what love means
One day you came and talked to me
And you said we are meant to be
I was happy, everything was so nice
But then I found out that everything was a lie
(Repeat Chorus)
Na na na na, na na na na
Yeah, yeah
Na na na na, na na na na
How could you do this to me (do this to me)
You said we are meant to be (whoa, whoa, oh)
You showed me how to cry...
When you told me that everything was a lie
(Repeat Chorus)
Love means
I don't have eyes like the sky
(yeah yeah)
I'm the girl in your dreams
Love means
Na na na na, na na na na
(Whoa oh)
Na na na na, na na na na
Love means
§END SONG§
Everyone applauds as Rose takes a bow. New music is played and more people join in to dance.
Rose was about to go join her friends, when she was yanked sideways. She turned to see Shego smiling at her.
"That was really sweet, but now it's your turn to dance."
"With who?" Rose asked, though she knew when seeing Drakken walk toward them and being accompanied by Monkey Fist. "No way?"
"If it's tradition for the bride and groom to share the first dance, then it's tradition that the maid-of-honor and best man to share a dance." Shego said nonchalantly. "And it's not like I forgot what happened at the Villain Convention last week."
"Oh damn," Rose cursed, blushing profusely. "You're right, Shego, but I'll only dance under one condition."
"What's that?" The bride smirked knowingly at her cousin.
"Don't tell anyone about what happened," Rose said, half begging and warning sweetly.
Shego laughed, she knew her cousin too well. "Don't worry, you're secrets save with me. Even though you'll be looking back on this day at your wedding, which I think won't be that long from now."
The party continued on through out the night and everyone had fun.
So it was actually a good idea for Rose to play matchmaker for Drakken and Shego. She didn't suspect that this kidnap plan for world domination would succeed for the villains, but in the end, everything came out good. The villains kept secret of their feelings for each other, and now they're married.
Drakken and Shego are happy now with their married life, with their beautiful twin children Devon and Shelby.
Then Rose found love with another villain recently met at the Villain Convention, and her wedding was in the summer of the following year with the rest of her life wonderfully as she became a mother of three beautiful children Sarah, Maxwell, and Rebecca.
Life goes on forever, as so does the people you meet and events that are unexpected. Rose never forgot this saying, as her world was turned upside down by new possibilities.
As we go on we remember
All the times we had together.
And as our lives change from whatever,
We will still be friends forever.
§THE END§
I hope you people are not mad at me for ending this already. I didn't know what the 'P' in Drakken's full name stood for, so I say it's Percival (the shorter name is Percy-like Percy Weasley from Harry Potter).
The songs in this series do not belong to me: As The World Falls Down (David Bowie), Come Clean (Hillary Duff), Graduation- Friends Forever (Vitamin C), and Girl In Your Dreams (M2M).
I don't think there will be a sequel for this, but I am getting new ideas for another 'brand new' story. It has nothing to do with this story at all. Let me know what you think.
