Ahh, my first review, and it comes from Ravyn! Congrats, you get a cookie.
Rayvn: Heh, well we can all hope for the best can't we? Heh heh.
Chapter 3: Singing and yelling.
Location: Spirit World, Temple of the Soul Guardians
The Temple was covered in many different decorations; various kinds of flowered covered almost all of the pillars, while everything else was being taken care of.
It was several days later; Erick floated near the ceiling of the main room where the ceremony would take place. He encircled the dozens of columns that circled the room with vines and draperies. Erick hummed to himself as he did so. Eventually his humming broke into words. "Got my cloth, got my ivy lines…and whose gonna make this pillar look real nice-hey that kinda rhymed.
Gonna make you jealous, of my skills so we can-"
"Erick are you singing again?" David called from below. Erick shot his view to the winged human below him.
"Uh-uh-uh I guess heh heh."
"Look, you can have fun with it, but another two seconds and all of spirit world would have heard you."
"Oh… sorry."
"Forget it, you're ahead of schedule anyway…but, could we please stick to humming."
"Hey we all have dreams you know," Erick said.
"Yeah but what makes us different is that I'm actually accomplishing them and by the looks of it you're helping me," Erick stared at the plants and fabric in his hands.
"That was cold."
"You know very well I'm ruthless," Erick simply shrugged and went back to work.
"HEY I COULD HEAR YOU FROM MY ROOM!" Ollrack's voice went off. Erick looked down again and saw Ollrack walking up, "You're getting this place ready for a wedding, not a talent show," Ollrack scolded.
"Geez Ollrack you're the scheduler not the slave driver," David said.
"I'm just trying to make sure your big day goes perfectly," David grabbed his shoulders and held him in front of him.
"Think about what you just said…this is a wedding. There is no way that this will go perfectly."
"David…you're my best friend, do you really think I'm going to let anything slide?" Ollrack said as he put his arm around David.
"Yes as a matter of fact, because you don't have a choice, because I'm telling you to have some fun with a ceremony like this. Ok…so lay off," Erick floated down.
"Well, I need to go find some tables and chairs…and after that, I'm going to build the "altar". Well I'm off," Erick said brushing his hands together.
"Hey Erick!" David called as he started to walk toward the door, "Since you're in charge of decorations…I think that means you also do the costumes," David said with a smug. Erick spun around, eye's big as melons.
"You have got to be kidding me!"
"Hey, you should have thought of that at the meeting a few days ago," Erick just sighed and walked out of the temple.
In the great Electrifyings library, dozens of books were stored, both as gifts and sought out; but one in particular, wiggled in place. Eventually an unseen force launched the book from its spot onto the shelf. The invisible hand, opened the book, and flung the pages to fly by, stopping on the page titled: "Rules and Consequences of Ceremonies," If one listened closely, one could hear a dark laughter, a laughter that belonged to the darkest force known. "IT'S TIME…" it eventually said.
