1 year later…

There were flowers everywhere… the lake by the Wind Ninja academy had never looked more beautiful.

Tori smiled and looked at everything around her. Kapri, Marah, Leeann, Kelly, and Kira all stood by her side with small arrangements of flowers in their hands. Looking across from the man in front of her she saw Hunter, Dustin, Cam, Shane, and Trent all smiling at the couple.

"Do you Victoria Hanson, take Blake Bradley to be your husband?" Sensei Watanabe asked.

Tori looked at the man in front of her and smiled excitedly. "I do," she said.

Sensei Amino turned to Blake. "Do you Blake Bradley, take Victoria Hanson to be your wife?"

Blake squeezed Tori's hand and grinned. "I do."

Both Senseis smiled at their former students. They took a black cloth and loosely tied their wrists together, signaling the end of the ceremony.

Blake and Tori leaned in and kissed, causing the assorted crowd to applaud them as they made their way down the makeshift isle towards the portal, and to their new life together.

After Blake's accident, he had given up racing professionally and just stuck to recreational riding with his brother and their friends. He was back to his old normal self, and no one could believe that he had broken his back in two places only a year earlier. He had been given a teaching position at the Thunder Academy and was happy in his new job.

They had bought a house relatively equidistant from both academies and couldn't wait to begin the rest of their lives.

Everyone else, too, had begun to start new lives.

Dustin and Marah had jumped the gun a bit and decided to elope. Hunter and Kapri, Cam and Leeann, as well as Shane and Kelly were engaged. As far as the Dino Rangers were concerned, Ethan and Angela were living together, and Connor and Krista were enjoying traveling the world with Connor's pro team.

Kira and Trent had both gone to the same art school, with Trent majoring in graphics and Kira in music. They were also living together and were soon on their way to being engaged as well.

Anton and Tommy had once again been globetrotting to different archeological digs, and were in the process of uncovering a new species of dinosaur. Ella was still principal at Reefiside High and Hailey still ran the café.

Once the newlyweds reached the portal, they saw a red mustang convertible with Connor at the wheel. They got in and the leader of the Dino Thunder team drove them to the Cyber Café where their small reception was being held.

Blake kept a tight arm around Tori's waist as they exchanged small kisses on their way there. Connor just smirked at the happy couple as they reached their destination. Connor helped them to one of the private rooms as they waited for everyone else to arrive.

Once they were alone, Blake held her face in his hands and laid soft kisses on her face. When he pulled away he couldn't help but stare at the beauty that was before him.

Tori's dress was a very pale shade of blue that pooled around her ankles. The corset-like top was studded with tiny blue crystals and had no sleeves.

Blake wore a navy suit with a crisp white shirt and blue tie. It may have been simple, but Tori thought he was the most gorgeous thing she had ever laid eyes on.

They held each other lightly and giggled. "Did we really just get married?" Blake asked.

Tori took his left hand in hers and saw the white gold band around his finger. "We better have or else what we're going to do later might not sit well with a few people," she said with an impish grin.

Blake pulled her closer. "And what would THAT be Mrs. Bradley?" he asked as he kissed her lightly.

"You'll just have to wait and see," she said laughing. They heard their guests begin to filter into the café and soon heard Shane get on the microphone, announcing them in.

When they entered they saw their small group of friends and instantly felt like this was the way it was always meant to be.

The party was one to be remembered as the day changed into night, and things were slowly winding down.

Tori stood on the stage and turned her back to the VERY slim crowd that consisted of Krista, Angela, Hailey, and Kira for the bouquet toss.

"Alright girls, here we go," Tori said as she threw the flowers.

To Kira's surprise, everyone left the floor, leaving her the lone person to catch the bouquet. Tori turned around and smiled at her friend.

"You planned this?" she asked the bride. Tori just smirked and took a seat in a chair that had been brought up for her.

Blake made his way up and removed her garter. Trent looked at the guys around him.

"Don't pull anything stupid guys," he said to them. Everyone laughed when Blake spun around fast and threw the garter directly at Trent.

"You never said I couldn't pull anything!" he said as he helped Tori to stand. Everyone in the room burst out laughing and Trent and Kira both turned red as they stood next to each other.

The newlyweds descended the stairs to the floor where they said their goodbyes and made their way back to their home in Blue Bay Harbor, Ninja Streaking faster than anyone could see.

"I guess they can't wait!" Connor said laughing. Krista hit his arm and everyone began to filter out as well.

In Blue Bay Harbor, Blake and Tori stopped in their very spacious backyard and smiled. He scooped her up in his arms and carried her into the house, laying a sweet kiss on her lips as they made their way to the bedroom.

Blake placed his bride on the bed and Tori sighed as he placed a hand on his back. Though he didn't show it, Blake's back sometimes bothered him when he overdid it.

Tori rose and took off his jacket, running her hands gently down his spine until she felt him relax under her touch. She kissed his neck.

"Are you alright?" she whispered in his ear as she turned around and faced him.

Blake smiled at her and placed his arms around her waist. "I am as long as I have you," he said as he kissed her.

Tori laughed a little at his corniness and he knew instantly why she was laughing. He held her tighter and kissed her again.

Their lips parted and they made their way over to the bed. Blake unzipped the back of her dress, while Tori removed his shirt. They continued to lightly kiss and caress until they were both naked and warm under the covers.

Tori ran her fingers lightly over his back and chest as he continued to kiss every inch of her skin.

There wasn't a part on either one of them that wasn't on fire by now, and they only knew of one way to end the sweet torture.

Blake lay on top of Tori and ran his fingers through her hair while she stared into his comforting brown eyes.

They slowly kissed and came together like they were made for one another. Blake's hands crept their way to Tori's and he gently held them on the sides of her head against the soft mattress.

Tori sighed happily as she felt the waves of pleasure wash over her entire being. Blake too was feeling a new sensation as he continued to move within her. Their lips were soft and gentle against each other as they continued their slow, sensual lovemaking.

After what seemed like hours, the two finally reached their climax at the same time and fell into the comfort of their bed.

Tori laid herself across his chest, hearing his heartbeat in her ear. Blake's arm hung loosely around her and they continued to kiss gently.

"I love you, Blake," Tori said as she let her eyes close.

Blake smiled sleepily and hugged his wife close. "I love you too," he said as he too joined his wife in sleep.
