The reception was at a different church that had a room big enough for it. The room had white roses and lily of the valleys flower arrangements and the color theme was white and lilac. It was a simple design for a reception compare to a fancy reception. But that was how Creed and Echidna wanted it, small and simple.

Creed and Echidna were standing near the punch bowl talking with Kyoko and Charden. Echidna, who had ditched the train in the car, leaned into Creed's left side, "I'm actually surprised by how many people showed up."

Kyoko looked at her friend confused, "Why's that Echidna?"

Echidna looked up at Creed then back at Kyoko, "Well considering we use to be members of the Apostles of the Star."

Kyoko smiles, "This just proves that everyone forgives us."

Creed looks down at his wife, "It's been a little over two years since Train defeated me and the Zero Numbers."

Charden smiles, "And don't forget that Chronos, the sweepers, Leon, and the four of us all joined together to defeat the Zero Numbers."

Echidna was about to say something when she noticed Sven Vollfied and Eve walking up to their group. Sven looked at Echidna, "Their right you know; if it wasn't for you and Creed, Train and I could not have gotten to Eve in time."

She looked around the room and smiles, "You're right." Echidna then sighed, "But the media finding out about the wedding wasn't much help."

Creed and Echidna both knew that there was going to be a problem with the media and with Echidna's fans. They'd tried to keep their engagement on the down low, but somehow word had gotten out. Everyone who was at the wedding and at the reception promised not to tell anyone about the wedding, so Creed and Echidna really didn't know how word got out.

Creed had suspected that the media would find out and asked Echidna if she would want a private-invite only wedding. She agreed as long as he was able to get some good security. He was able to get some good security alright; Creed had somehow gotten Chronos to be the security.

Sephiria Arks walks up to Creed and Echidna; Sven not know what would happen next, excused himself and Eve from the group and looked for someone else to talk to.

Sephiria looked at the four ex-members of the Apostles of the Star, "I need to speak to Creed alone."

Echidna nodded and Sephiria and Creed walked over to a corner.

Creed looked at Sephiria, "So how's security going?"

Sephiria leaned her back against the wall, "It's going good; I've got Anubis on look out outside. New members of Chronos are everywhere, but only Ling, Jenos, Belze, and I are actually in this room. With all the security I have only one person could get throw it."

"Train."

Sephiria nodded, "He's the only person that can get through my security." She paused, "Even with Anubis outside."

Creed knew this was true, Train was just that good. He looks at Echidna then back at Sephiria, "I just want to thank you and Chronos again for being security. I know Echidna appreciates this very much."

"No problem Creed. Well I better get back to work."

Creed grinned, "And I better get back to Echidna, before she comes looking for me."

Sephiria looks at Creed, "Echidna still has her Tao powers, right?"

Creed looked at Sephiria puzzled, "Yes. Why?"

"No reason, I was only wondering since it's been a few years since she got her powers. It's natural for a non user of Tao to ask that question after a few years."

Creed grinned again, "Good point."

Sephiria smiles a small smile, "Well I guess you better get back to Echidna."

"Right," he walks away in search of his wife.

Sephiria smiled to herself, "Echidna must be so glad that Train let you live, Creed." With that she returned back to her job.

Creed looks around the room and sees Echidna leaning against the wall to the left side of the table with the punch bowl. He walks over to her and smiles, "Well I'm sure you will be glad to know that security checks out."

Echidna smiles at her husband, "That's good to know; it takes a little stress off my mind."

Creed looked at Echidna a little worried, "What else is stressing you out?"

Echidna wraps her arms around him, "I don't know what it is for sure. I just have a bad feeling."

Creed wraps his arms around her shoulders, "Whatever we may face, we'll face it together."

"You're right, Creed."

"Hey Creed, Echidna, it's time for the toasts," Kyoko called from the table in the front.

Creed and Echidna walk to their table and take their seats in the center. Kyoko sits next to Echidna and Charden sits next to Creed.

Charden started the toast, making sure he didn't remind anyone about the Apostles of the Star, and Kyoko ended the toasts. Even Leon had said a toast which surprised Creed and Echidna.

After the toast everyone begin to eat. Creed and Echidna cut the cake after everyone was done eating.

One hour later, Creed and Echidna take the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife. Creed had told the DJ in advance to play Echidna's favorite song, Forever and for Always by Shania Twain, for their dance. Echidna also knew that this was Creed's favorite song as well, even though he would not admit it.

When Forever and for Always was finished the DJ started playing random songs. Everyone who wanted to dance joined Creed and Echidna on the dance floor. Sephiria, Belze, Ling, and Jenos were the only ones not dancing, but Jenos did sneak a few dances with Rinslet.

One thing no one knew, not even Chronos, is that Train was on top of the church's roof, just looking up at the sky. He was waiting for the right moment to put the jar of milk, along with a note, in the car Creed and Echidna rented for today. Until then Train was just going to relax and drink all of the other jars of milk he brought for himself.

After about ten dances Creed and Echidna decide to take a break. Creed got them both a glass of punch. They stood to the side and watched the others dance.

As they were drinking their punch Echidna pointed out, "Hey Creed, look who Leon is dancing with."

Creed looked in the direction the teenager was at and smiled, "Well, I wonder who talked Leon into asking her to dance."

Leon was dancing with Eve, who was actually better at dancing than they thought she would be. Creed and Echidna guessed that Sven and the others must have taught Eve how to dance.

Sephiria walks over to Creed and Echidna, "Taking a break from dancing, I see."

Echidna looked at her, "Well, for a couple of songs, then we'll go back out there."

"We'll be opening our gifts in about twenty minutes. After that Echidna and I will leave on our honeymoon."

"There's about an hour left, Sephiria; just in case you need to inform your security teams."

"Thanks, Echidna; I mainly need to let Anubis and his squad members know."

"You're welcome, Sephiria."

Sephiria smiles at them. Then she walks away to inform Chronos how much time was left. They got the word around using the same communication system they did two years ago when they helped the Sweepers stop Eden.

Outside Anubis was standing by one of his squad members, "Anubis, did you hear that?"

"Yes, there's only one hour left," he looked around.

"What is it?"

Anubis looked up at his squad member, "I'm not sure, but I'm gonna take a look around. Make sure everyone keeps their guard up."

"Yes, sir."

Anubis starts running and tries to pick up a scent. He had this feeling that someone had gotten by; but he only knew of one person who could get past this security and that person was Train Heartnet. Anubis tries to pick up Train's scent for fifteen minutes, but he could never fully follow his scent. It always disappeared; he was a little mad that he couldn't follow Train's scent, but Train was an ex-member of the Chronos Numbers. So of course Train would know how to keep him on a wildgoose chase trying to follow his scent.

Train had fallen asleep at some point and when he woke up he knew a few hours had past. He had to figure out how much time was left; so he could put the milk in the car. That's when he saw Anubis walking back to one of his squad members.

"So did you find anything?"

"Sort of, I don't know where he's at, but Train Heartnet is here somewhere."

"The Black Cat?"

"Yes, he was Number XIII. He carried out his missions flawlessly. Tell anyone that if they see Train Heartnet to let me know."

The squad member was confused, "Okay, but why?"

Anubis looks at him, "No one, but me stands a chance against Train."

"What does he look like?"

"Just look for a man with brown hair, and a bell around his neck. His number is on his left chest."

"Right," he then turned his attention to the communication channels.

Anubis looked up at the sky and thought to himself, "Well, Train, why are you here?"

Train continues to look down at Anubis, "Maybe Anubis can tell me how much time is left."

He grabs the jar of milk, jumped off the roof of the church and walks up to Anubis.

Anubis turns around when he picked up Train's scent, "Train Heartnet, what are you doing here?"

"Calm down Anubis, I just came to find out how much time is left."

"Why?"

Train holds up the jar of milk, "I've got a present for the bride and groom."

"I see," Anubis then sees the bucket of ice in Train's other hand, "And what is the bucket for?"

Train smiles, "Well, how else was I suppose to keep the milk cold without a bucket of ice?"

"True, I have another question."

"What is it?"

"How long have you been here?"

Train puts the milk back in the ice, "Ever since everyone came to this church."

Anubis smiles, "I see, well, there's about thirty minutes left. That's what you wanted to know in the first place, right?"

"Yeah it was; thanks, Anubis," Train then jumps back on to the roof of the church and waited for twenty minutes to go by.

Back inside Creed and Echidna was taking a break from dancing again and decided that they would have one more dance. After the final dance of the night they would open their gifts.

Twenty minutes later, everyone was finished dancing, Creed and Echidna sat down at the table were all their wedding gifts were at and started opening them. From Kyoko they got a set of twelve drinking glasses, from Charden they got a set of twelve silverware. Leon, Layla, Tim, and the rest of their friends got Creed and Echidna a microwave. Rinslet and Jenos got them some skillets, pots, and pans; while Sven and Eve got them some spatulas and wooden spoons. Finally, Sephiria, Belze, Ling, and Anubis got them a twenty-four piece China set; plus many other gifts from the Sweepers.

Outside Train walks up to Creed and Echidna's rental car with the jar of milk. In three minutes they would be coming out to the car, so he didn't have much time. He finds the car unlocked and quietly opens the door. Train puts the jar of milk and the note in the car. Quietly closing the door Train walks away.

Three minutes later; Creed, Echidna, Kyoko, Charden, and a few of the others helped them carry the gifts to the trunk of the car. After all of the gifts were in the car Creed opened the door for Echidna and then got in the driver's seat. That's when they saw the jar of milk and the note.

Creed looks at the handwriting on the folded up note.

Echidna notices him looking at the note, "Creed, what is it?"

He picks up the note and milk; handing her the jar of milk, "This handwriting."

"What about it, Creed?"

He shows her the two names on the note.

Creed and Echidna

Echidna looks at the note still slightly confused, "Whose handwriting is that though, Creed?"

Creed smiles and kisses Echidna; he already knew whose handwriting it was. "Let's open it and see who left us the milk, sweetheart."

Echidna smiles back, "Okay, open the note, my love."

"Right," he nods and starts to unfold the note.

Author's Note: Finally, I've finished Chapter 2, but I stopped it on a cliffhanger. Yes, I also know that I haven't updated this story in about six months and I'm sorry about the really late update. Anyway, I'll try to update more often for now on. Don't forget to leave a review.

So until Chapter 3 farewell for now, because next time we get to find out what is on the note.
