Okay, I'm going to skip ahead a little while, because I'm tired of making excuses to prolong this event.

Chapter 15

Vanessa

It's been about a month now since Isabel's daughter was born, and the two of them finally agreed on a name: Kiara. Jacob and I are taking care of Kiara today, while Isabel walks down the aisle. That's right, she and Arkarian are getting married today. I've never seen Arkarian look this nervous, and apparently, neither has anyone else. He's got Ethan as his best man, while Matt, Kyle, and Harry are the other groom's men (A/N: Is that what they're called? I've got no clue.) The five of them are standing up at the altar, waiting for Isabel. Ethan's trying to calm Arkarian, and even though Arkarian has the skill to calm, I think he's too nervous to use it.

I smile and wave as Jacob and I take our seats, with Kiara in my arms. I place her on my lap and gently take hold of her wrist, getting her to wave at her father. Arkarian looks over and actually smiles for the first time today. But I know it won't be the last. I've seen what Isabel's dress looks like, and it's gorgeous.

It's pure white, which makes her blonde hair stand out somehow, and the top of it fits nice and tightly. It's strapless, and the top meets the skirt in a "V" shape. The skirt flows to the ground, and there are small white flowers imprinted all over the dress. I don't know about how she's going to have her hair, but I know that the veil is long enough to cover it completely if she wears it down.

After everybody has arrived, the music starts playing. Everybody looks as the three bride's maids and the maid of honour come down; Clara, Neriah, and Rochelle are the bride's maids, and Ginny is the maid of honour. The four of them are wearing identical navy blue, tight fitting dresses, and they all look beautiful. Finally, after the four of them take their places, Isabel comes. Her hair cascades down her back, and she got it curled. A silver tiara atop her head completes the look, and I see Arkarian practically melt as she walks towards him. There's a huge grin on her face, and she waves at Kiara as she passes us. I take Kiara's wrist and get her to wave back.

Matt somehow convinced his father to do the ceremony, so Dartemis stands at the very front, and the ceremony begins once Isabel is finished walking. But before Dartemis can get as far as to say "Dearly beloved", there's a commotion outside. Everybody turns to look, and the doors of the church fling open.

Isabel

I can't believe it! Who in their right mind would crash a wedding? My wedding, for that matter? I look, and see just who it is. Leanie Hall, one of the girls who was in mine, Ethan's, and Rochelle's history class, and the one who thought Carter was sexy…gross. She's standing there with thousands of people behind her, and I realize at once that she must be in the Order, as are the people behind her. Ginny groans from beside me. "I thought we got rid of all of them!" she exclaims, and Leanie hears.

"Yeah, right," she says while laughing. "That wasn't even one quarter of us. Attack!" And the Order soldiers that came with her advance on us, weapons drawn. Even after all this time, none of us Named have ever left home without our weapons, so we pull them out, too. Rochelle pulls off the gloves that Lady Arabella re-made her after Ethan threw the old ones off a cliff, and her hands look just as powerful as ever. While Jacob gets up from his seat to help fight, Vanessa runs to find shelter for Kiara. I make a note to thank her later, but right now, it's fighting time. It's only after I've killed at least five Order soldiers that I realize I'm in my wedding dress. Oh well.

We fight for what seems like hours, but my objective is to get to Leanie so I can get on with my wedding. Of course, I keep these thoughts and all others screened in case any of the Order are Truthseers, which I don't doubt. I finally get to her, and as I'm starting to fight her, she creates a force field that knocks me backwards.

"This fight is over!" she yells, and her soldiers fall back. She looks around the room for a bit, before her gaze settles on Kyle. "Get him," she says quietly and dangerously. Three soldiers march up and grab Kyle, pulling him along. Clara runs forward and throws a gust of wind at the soldiers, but they don't let go. Leanie turns and walks out of the church, with her soldiers following behind.

Clara drops to her knees and buries her head in her arms, crying. I go over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry," I tell her. "We'll get him back."

She looks up at me, and I've never seen her in such a wreck. "B-but what about you guys?" she asks, and I know what she means.

I shrug. "We can wait. We'll be able to continue with the wedding after Kyle's back. Right now, he's our main objective."

She smiles and stands up, embracing me. I return the hug. Arkarian shouts for me to come, and I do. What I see shocks me. Vanessa is badly hurt and unconscious, still holding Kiara in her arms. I take my daughter and check if she needs any healing (which she doesn't) before handing her to Arkarian and working on Vanessa. But the way she's lying there, and looking at how bad she looks makes me think I'm too late.

Hmm…I know what you're thinking. "How could you do this?" But I assure you that it's all a part of my evil master plan. And Leanie Hall is actually in the books, and she did actually say that she thinks Mr. Carter is sexy. I was thinking of using Chloe Campbell as my evil villain and new Order leader, but I've already done that, and so has most of the FanFiction population. I figure it's time for a change. Who knows? Maybe people will take my lead and start using Leanie, in which case I'll have to skim through the books to find some other barely mentioned character to use. Anyway, review and I'll give you a pickled cucumber.
