Author's Note - Hi Everybody! Just a reminder, this is a Sequel, make sure to read the original first. I know it's not as long as the others, but it kinda wraps things up. I really enjoyed writing this and i hope you all enjoyed reading this. Thank You to those who read and Thank You to those who review. Reviews make me happy and feel like i'm doing a good job. Sadly I don't own anything in the story except for Olivia, Melody, Princess Astrid and the story.

Enjoy!

The mansion had gone back to normal, with the exception of Princess Melody. I had gone back to spending most of my time in the library with Melody while The Leaders of The Black Parade were busy working research and prepping for The Patient.

"Can we take a break?"Melody begged me.

"Sure, might as well," I sighed, standing up from my desk.

"So when will they be arriving?" she asked.

"I believe sometime tomorrow morning," I yawned, stretching my arms.

"I am so excited that Autumn will be here tomorrow! I will finally be able to meet your brother as well," she squealed with excitement.

"I haven't seen him in months. You know who will probably be the most excited?" I asked her.

"Ray?" she joked.

"Yup," I replied.

"Did you know that those two have been writing each other every day? She only writes me once a

week!" Melody complained, causing me to laugh.

"Well, it looks like we know who she likes more!" I laughed.

"At least she found someone good," she admitted.

"And it seems you have too," I said, causing her to blush

Just her luck, the door opened and in came Frank, Bob and Gerard.

"Hey girls," Bob greeted.

"Hi guys! What are three up to?" I asked.

"Bob and I are here to find a book and we ran into Gerard on the way," Frank explained while the others started scanning the bookshelves.

"Oh really, and what were you up to Gerard?" I asked, walking towards him.

"I came up here to see Melody … 's progress," he answered.

"Nice save," I told him so that Melody couldn't hear.

"Found it!" Bob exclaimed.

"I think I'll join you two for a little bit," I said to Bob and Frank.

"We'd love to have you join us," Frank smiled and Bob offered me his arm.

The three of us left the room, leaving an awkward Gerard alone with Melody.

"So, how are you doing?" Gerard asked slowly.

"I'm doing good, just a little tired," she answered.

"That's good. Well um, anyways I came up here to ask you if I could escort you

to the end of summer ball," he awkwardly stammered.

"Yes," she blushed.

"That's wonderful. I'll see you later then," he replied.

Gerard left the room, Melody watching. When the door shut she jumped up and down

in excitement.

"Be cool Melody, be cool," she told herself, grinning.

"Those two make a cute couple," I said as we walked down the main staircase.

"I love how awkward he is. He is the leader of a country, yet he is so nervous about asking a girl to a dance," Frank laughed.

"I think I need to find girlfriends for you two," I decided.

"Good luck with that!" Bob grinned as we came to a stop.

"Oh we'll see," I told him.

"As much as I love your evil plans, the two of us need to go plan out a new

training course," Frank said.

"I willll see you two later then," I replied, hugging both of them.

Bob and Frank took off down a hallway to my right as I stood in the entrance foyer. Once they were out of sight I started down the main hallway towards the ballroom, anxious to see how my plans had been put into action. The grand doors were wide open so that the decorators would be able to carry things in with ease.

"It looks amazing," a voice said as arms wrapped around my waist.

"Why thank you. Melody and your brother helped," I told him, turning around to

face him.

"What I meant to say was that you look amazing," he smirked, bringing his lips down to mine.

We were lost for a moment, but interrupted when someone carrying a stack of chairs had to get by bus. The two of us were standing in the middle of the hallway. Laughing, he took my hand and led me in the ballroom.

"Looks even more amazing inside," he remarked.

"It does," I said in a daze, looking over the room.

"So who all are invited?" Mikey asked.

"Who isn't? Basically anyone of importance and my brother and Autumn," I listed off.

"So about how many people?" He inquired.

"There will be around two hundred people," I guessed.

"Wow," Mikey commented.

"Almost doubles last year," I yawned.

"It's not even four pm and your tired?" He laughed.

"I've been up late working on this almost every night! I've been stressing out over this!" I exclaimed, yawning again.

"I know a way to help with the stress," he whispered suggestively.

"Right now, I just want to take a nap. You're free to join me," I smiled, fighting the urge to yawn again.

"I think I'll take you up on that offer," he smirked, leading me out of the room.

"Just sleeping!" I reinforced with a smile.

Everything seemed like a blur. Everywhere I went people were rushing about. Melody had attached herself to my side as we dodged tables and vases, chairs and such that were being carried through out. Finally we made it out to the front, a little late though.

"Melody!" Autumn yelled.

"Autumn!" her sister replied, running to her sister.

"So Ray, Autumn is here," I nudged.

"Yeah, I know," he grinned.

"Hi Little Olivia!" a voice said.

"Nick!" I exclaimed, throwing my arms around my neck.

"I missed you," he replied, spinning me around.

"And I you," I said as he placed me down.

"So tell me about this Astrid," he said as we started to make our way into the mansion.

"Where do I start," I laughed as we followed everyone else inside.

The day carried on with the eight of us sitting around catching up.

"So what exactly happened to her?" Autumn asked us.

"Well, the chemical reacted a little differently than we planned. It was supposed to cause some minor temporary brain damage, but something happened," Ray started.

"The chemical had caused more damage than we planned. If we had discovered her sooner than there might have been a chance that it wouldn't have been so severe," Mikey finished.

"So how bad is she now?" Nick asked.

"She has lost a good deal of her functionality. Basically she has the mentality of a six year old," Ray informed him.

"When one of the servants was packing her belongings they discovered she had been taking a simple antibiotic. We discovered that when her medicine is mixed with the chemical we gave her, it leads to severe brain damage," Gerard explained.

The room was silent for a few minutes, reflecting on the poor girl.

"So, how is life in Arrakis?" I said, turning to Autumn.

"It is educational," she said slowly.

"Tell me the truth," I egged her.

"It's boring. I'm sorry Nick, but it is almost painfully boring! It's beautiful there, no questioning that, but it's so monotonous and routine," she confessed, causing us to laugh.

"Well Autumn, I've been talking to Gerard here, and if you'd be interested," Nick started to say.

"We would love to have you here," Gerard grinned.

"I'd love to!" Autumn said to the men.

"Yes!" Melody exclaimed, hugging her sister.

"Well, this should prove to be interesting," Frank commented.

I spent most of the night in Mikey's arm, dancing and laughing. The skirt of my black dress swirled and swished about through the dance floor. The walls were decorated with elegant black drapes, the ceilings were strung with lights and cream colored streamers black, white and cream colored balloons were everywhere; floors, walls, ceiling. The Leaders of The Black Parade were dressed to the nines in their military uniform, to set them apart from the other men. Melody and Autumn wore dresses similar to mine, but Melody's was blood red and her sister's was deep blue.

"If you'll excuse me for a moment, I need to go talk to someone real fast," Mikey said to me, kissing me cheek

"Come find me when you're done," I replied, watching him walk away with an important looking man.

"You did an amazing job," Gerard complemented me.

"We did an amazing job," i corrected him, motioning, to him and the lovely lady on his arm.

"I think we should be in charge of planning this next year," Melody laughed.

"It seems like Autumn might be helping us as well," I laughed.

The song changed, causing the dancers on the floor to as well.

Now come one come all to this tragic affair
Wipe off that makeup, what's in is despair
So throw on the black dress, mix in with the lot
You might wake up and notice you're someone you're not

If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see
You can find out firsthand what it's like to be me
So gather 'round piggies and kiss this goodbye
I'd encourage your smiles I'll expect you won't cry

Another contusion, my funeral jag
Here's my resignation, I'll serve it in drag
You've got front row seats to the penitence ball
When I grow up I want to be nothing at all!

I said yeah, yeah!
I said yeah, yeah!

C'mon C'mon C'mon I said
(Save me!) Get me the hell out of here
(Save me!) Too young to die and my dear
(You can't!) If you can hear me just walk away and
(Take me!)

"I love this song!" Melody crooned as she dragged Gerard onto the dance floor as the first few lines had been sung.

The music drifted through the air as I stood on the balcony watching the scene inside. Inside, the military officials, noble men and women and celebrities were dancing. Ray held Autumn in his arms as the tempo slowed significantly. Melody and Gerard were in the middle of the dancing floor, causing a wave of jealousy throughout.

"What are you doing out here?" Mikey asked.

"Enjoying the night sky while watching Bob and his horrible wingman Frank fail miserably at flirting," I smiled.

"You don't want to go inside and dance?" he asked curiously.

"And upstage Gerard and Melody?" I joked.

"You're right. Plus being out here we are all alone," Mikey smirked.

"I love you," I said, walking towards Mikey.

He stepped back, sending me into a state of shock. My mind went reeling thinking of what could be happening. My smile had faded and Mikey noticed. His hand quickly shot into his pocket and he knelt down on one knee.

"Ever since I first saw you, I fell in love with you; your eyes, your smile, your personality. I don't think I could live another day without you in my life. Princess Olivia Glenn, will you marry me?" he asked, opening the box.

My mouth dropped open. The fear I had felt minutes before was quickly washed away of pure bliss. I furiously tried to say yes, but I couldn't make a sound. So instead I nodded my head, grinning in the process. He slipped the ring on my finger and the box back in his pocket and pulled me into a kiss, engulfing me in his arms. My thoughts had stopped. He pulled away smiling.

"I love you too," he whispered.

Author's Ramble - I hope the title of the chapter had you worrying a little. I'm evil like that. I hope you enjoyed it! So, keep your eyes open my dear readers for the continuation of the lives of The Black Parade.

Oh, and there might be another story soon ;) i have quite a few different ideas swimming in my head.
