Disclaimer: Believe it true believers, its time for more of this story!
May 19th, 2011, Shiruta, Kahndaq
A great day was in store for the nation of Kahndaq as their King, Black Adam, was getting married to the woman known as Tuo Ma. Whom had been able to save the King from an outsider's evil influence upon him and then helped save the country a short time later from one man's desire to take what wasn't his. Ra's Al Ghul had been surprised by Tuo Ma's decision to marry as he had figured it would be a while yet before such a thing happened with the good King. Surprised but accepting and looked forward to seeing what sort of progeny would come from their union in the future. However, Al-Owal was a little less pleased then the Demon's Head over the whole thing as despite not being of blood, Tuo Ma was still his little girl and he didn't want to see her getting married damn it! As in his mind, she wasn't old enough for such a thing! Sara had honestly found the man's reaction to be amusing, at least until he caught wind of it and trained her into the ground and she'd resolve to ensure he wouldn't find out about things like that ever again. As she didn't want to experience that kind of thing again! Nyssa had merely shook her head in exasperation of her Beloved's experiences but did at least provide a little love to her.
Unfortunately, Sara wouldn't get to be a Bridesmaid much to her dismay due to the fact that Kahndaqian weddings didn't do that sort of thing. She would have tried to push for it to be a thing but considering it wasn't her wedding, she really had no place to be doing such things. But was at least glad she'd get to be in attendance for the wedding. Said wedding being one that was quickly capturing the attention of every news outlet in the world as the days passed and the preparations for the upcoming wedding were put together. Elias, the Historian, and someone Black Adam considered to be an advisor, was even being allowed to preside over the ceremony alongside the League's Priestess. The man had even conversed with the chosen Priests and Priestess' that the good King's Gods had personally chosen in order to get a better idea of what to say and do for a wedding of this magnitude. As it had been far too long since the ruler himself had married anyone and certain things needed a bit of learning on. But finally, the day came on the 19th for the wedding of the century to finally happen. And happen it would as the Sun began to set for the evening of that day.
Thousands flocked to Shiruta's town square where various events tended to take place, all of them eager to see their beloved King marry the woman who had captured his heart. Sara not only had a place in the front row of the wedding, but was also grateful as Hell for the fact that none of the news crews in the place were even remotely focused on her as they were all focused instead on Black Adam as he awaited Tuo Ma's arrival. And arrive she did and the sight of her in a white wedding dress with gold and black colors on it done in a tasteful manner was enough to take the long lived man's breath away. Beside her with his arm looped through hers and holding her hand as well, was Al-Owal in an outfit used specifically for certain League affairs and his eyes had a watery gleam to them as he and his adopted daughter walked up to Black Adam. Once there, Al-Owal hugged his daughter and kissed her on the cheek with a wide smile before leaving her to stand with Ra's off to the side as she turned around to stare at her husband to be. Who continued to stare at her in awe and love and it was enough to make her blush. And though Al-Owal had had his issues with the matter since Tuo Ma is his little girl, he was at least happy she had found love with a man who would not betray that love. Nor her trust for that matter.
All was silent for what felt like an eternity as everyone watched on and Sara and Nyssa could even be seen holding their hands together in a loving manner. Elias then cleared his throat and began to speak. "We have been brought here in a most wondrous and honorable matter. One that brings together two souls and unite them for all times as love and the Gods of Kahndaq themselves have decreed it so."
"There is no vow more sacred then the one coveted between man and woman. With this ceremony, your souls are bound together, forever joined. The bonds of your love will forever entwine you both. And for this shared life, we seek the blessings of the Gods so that you may go forth into eternity in Unity." Intoned the League Priestess as Black Adam held out his hand and brought up his palm.
Seconds later, Tuo Ma's hand was in his as she looked at him with love in her eyes, a love that was returned by her husband to be. Gasps rang through out the Palace as a light shone brightly upon the two and above them, was the Gods known as Shu, Heru, Amon, Zehuti, Aton, and Mehen. Leading to Sara wondering if perhaps she was drugged without her knowing about it as that was kinda trippy! "We six give our blessings to our Champion, Black Adam, and his intended, the Lady Tuo Ma so that they may have an eternity of happiness together as they rule Kahndaq side by side. It is also with our blessing that we give unto the Lady Tuo Ma the same powers that our Champion possesses." Declared Zehuti of Wisdom and surprising Tuo Ma considerably as Black Adam instinctively knew what to do next.
"SHAZAM!" He bellowed and then stepped away from his Beloved.
Allowing for her to be struck by a bolt of lightning that had alarmed Al-Owal considerably but was held back by Ra's. The lightning bolt did not hurt Tuo Ma however as everyone soon found out once the bright glow around her left her. Revealing her to be in an oufit similar to that of Black Adam's day to day one. Only instead of black and gold, her's was white with gold in various places as power radiated from her. And never had she felt as incredible as she did now as she stared at her husband to be in utter shock as he proudly smiled back at her. "We look forward to seeing Kahndaq prosper even more with you by his side, Tuo Ma." Declared Zehuti before vanishing alongside the other Gods.
Unable to help himself, Black Adam pulled his wife close to him and kissed her quite passionately. "We present you… KING BLACK ADAM AND QUEEN TUO MA!" Shouted Elias and the cheers of thousands could be heard in the aftermath of the announcement.
Cheers that was practically deafening in their volume as Sara continued to add her voice to the cheers. Always a watcher but never a bride!
Hours later saw the newly wedded couple in their now shared bedroom and both were quite pleased with the arrangement as they had wanted nothing more then to be alone with one another so that they could celebrate their union of love. But duty had required them to mingle with various dignitaries and the like, among those being Queen Hippolyta. Whom, along with her daughter, Diana, were currently on a tour of the world with a message of peace due to the fact the Amazon Nation was choosing to come out of isolation and join with the rest of the world. The fact the good Queen and Ra's Al Ghul were apparently old friends was a surprising thing too as well. "This is a day I will never forget." Declared Tuo Ma with a pleased sigh as she and her now husband stood out on the balcony of their room in the Palace.
Observing the celebrations that were still continuing where their wedding was concerned. Black Adam was even holding his wife from behind as they stared at their Kingdom together. "I find I must agree, my love. For I have not been this happy in a truly long time."
Tuo Ma smiled as she rubbed on his hands before turning around and kissing her husband soundly. A kiss he was all too willing to return as their passions for one another grew. Pulling away, she looked her husband in the eye and he could see love and what looked to be a strong desire in her's. Desire he himself was feeling for her in return. "This is our wedding night, Beloved." Near whispered the new Queen.
"So it is, my Queen."
"Then please, My King, make love to me."
Her words gained a huge smile from the man and with a squeal, he picked her up and carried her to their bed. Clothes were soon gone from their bodies as both looked at one another with a hungry desire as they saw one another naked for the first time. With a boldness about herself that surprised even Tuo Ma, she gave him a 'come hither' look and not needing to be told twice, Black Adam quickly did so. And soon, the newly wedded couple were making love for the first time and both felt truly whole as they did so.
Author's Notes: Hope folks enjoyed! As I know there's a media blackout of a certain name, I'm not sure if its like that for Fanfiction regarding the name Black Adam gives his wife in the comics. So for now, I'm just gonna stick with her League name.
