Chapter 11: I do

Location: Spirit World, Temple of the Soul Guardians

"And now, let us get this ceremony underway." Electrifying called. Erick took his cue, and from his corner, began to play the music David had instructed him to. "I call thee forth, Master David Clyoto, Soul Guardian of Life. May we all rise."

The guests stood up as the doors opened. David, accompanied by Ollrack as his best man appeared in the doorway. The 2 walked down the center of the temple to the altar. "Best man, the groom is in my hands, you may step back," Ollrack bowed and stepped back a bit. "I call thee forth, Princess Aileta, Peace keeper of the Soul Guardians. Aileta stepped into the temple. She saw David, and smiled. Tradition said that Soul Guardians brides must make the walk to the altar alone, to prove they could stand by their husbands side (and Aileta didn't exactly have a father), so she walked to the end of the temple alone. But the sight of David kept her going; she longed to be by his side again, and nothing was going to stop her now. She walked up the steps to accompany her love.

"We are gathered her today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes to the words which shall unite Master David, and Princess Aileta in holy matrimony. Should there be anyone who has cause why this couple should not be united in marriage, they must speak now or forever hold their peace." No one, not even Jeremy spoke up.

"Very well. Aileta, do you have the ring?" She smiled and revealed a golden ring. She slipped it on David's finger. "David, please recite the oath you have been taught." David drew on his memory.

"I David, take thee, Aileta to be my Wife. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, and I promise my love to you forevermore." He recited.

"And you Aileta…" Electrifying said turning to the pink haired girl.

"I Aileta, take thee David, to be my Husband. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, and I promise my love to you forevermore." She said.

"Take eachother in hand." Electrifying commanded. David and

Aileta held each others hands. "Look into you're partners eyes… is this the one you want to spend your life with… do you truly wish to dedicate your life to the one before you…make your final decision." He told them. He paused, and then continued. "David…do you take this woman and dedicate your life to her?"

"I do."

"And do you Aileta, take this man and dedicate your life to him?"

"I do." Electrifying smiled.

"Then… I pronounce you husband and wife… you may kiss your bride." David didn't argue as he brought Aileta to him and kissed with her. Yumi laid a hand on Jeremy's shoulder.

"I'm really proud of you Jeremy." She told him.

"Thanks… but I'm more proud of Aileta… she's happy now… and she always will be.

David ran Aileta to the nearest transport as they raced the guests out of the temple. "Pilot, you know where to go." David told the officer at the controls. The craft leapt off the ground and headed for the exit portal of spirit world.
