Kari: I am terribly sorry for the very long update. I was very busy and up until now, I am still busy but hopefully this will be the last chapter. I hope you like it.

-My Fate-

Chapter 5

The boy offered ardent prayers to the gods perpetually but not in the intention to make Venus his enemy. After who-knows-how-long of praying nothing came. Without much hope, he ended up with his last resolve: offering himself as a servant to Venus

'Who knows maybe he is there at his aunt's place'. Then he set forth to the temple of the goddess only to be laughed at.

"Have you come here to find a husband or perhaps a wife? Your last one almost died with the wound you gave him," the goddess continued laughing, mocking him. Just waiting for him to loose his temper and cause such a ruckus. "But really? Do you expect to have a spouse? You are an ill-favored boy in capable of married life. But never fear, for I the goddess of love, will help you."

With that she got some poppy seeds, wheat, and millet and so, mixed them in all together in a heap then gave it to the boy.

"I expect all this to be sorted by nightfall."

The goddess vanished and left Wolfram alone with the heap. The bishonen stared at the heap. There was no possible way to do such a cruel task. As he lost hope and started to cry, the tiniest creature pitied him

"Such a poor creature. Do not worry we will help you"

They animals gathered around the heap and started sorting it out.

~nightfall

Venus approached Wolfram and was surprised to see him and the assorted seeds.

"Good job" the goddess gave him a piece of bread and went back to her temple to rest in her soft bed while Wolfram rested in the cold and hard earth floor.

~ Morning

Wolfram woke up with a sore back and the worst possible thing to see, Venus,

(I edited something, as you can see there should be at least two more trials, but that'll be a waste of time and effort. I will just give you the end, which we all know would be happy.)

"Go forth to Persephone, tell her that I need her help for I am worn out with tending to my nephew's wounds"

Wolfram then started his journey to go to Hades- his wife I mean- still not knowing how to get there. Then as he passed by a tower, a voice spoke to him and gave him the directions. The voice said to him to be careful then the direction to Hades. First he must come upon the great hole the down the river of death where he will see Charon a ferryman and give him a penny to cross. Then inevitably, he will meet Cerberus, the three headed dog but give him a cake and he'll let you pass.

All happened of course, Persephone was willing to do Venus a favor. Wolfram, happy from the result of his efforts bore back the box. His next trial was his insecurity. He had gone through several pains and probably by now, he looks like a peasant. Yuuri will never love him again with his looks. His insecurity grew larger and larger. He opened the box and was shocked to see..

NOTHING…

But just then something took possession of him and he fell into deep sleep.

By now, Yuuri's injury was healed and was now longing for Wolfram. It's was hard to keep Love imprisoned. Sure the door was locked but there was still the windows. Yuuri flew out the window ever so quietly. His search was not long, for he saw Wolfram with the box in his hands sleeping. Yuuri woke him up with a prick from his arrow and scolded him a bit for his insecurities.

"You know better that that. I will always love you no matter how you look"

Wolfram wasted no time, he quickly went to Venus and gave her the box while Yuuri flew to The Great One for help. He wanted to make sure his Aunt would stay out of this.

The Great One, who is always enjoying anything that involves Venus getting angry was more than happy to lend a helping hand. He called and assembly and announced to all that Yuuri and Wolfram are now married and that he would bestow immortality to boy. This of course changed the situation, Venus now was more than willing to 'take in' the couple and promised to take care of them.

So all came to a happy ending.

-THE END-

Kari: So that's it. THE END. Like it? Hate it? Please comment.

Wolfram: So I became immortal?

Yuuri: I think this whole story is topsy turvy… Cupid was a good-looking man, but why am I Cupid? I think Wolfram, who is by far the most good-looking creature here, should have been him.

Wolfram: Me? I don't think that'll fit me. Cupid is a wimp if you ask me. It was just melted candle wax. And….. *blushes* I think you look good, I mean better than me.

Yuuri: Reallly? Come on, let's go.. It's getting cold..

Kari: That's the answer if anyone was asking,, and also I need help with a gift.. a simple gift.. thanks.. R&R…
