Chapter 85 A Royal Wedding Part 2

Hinata had only been asleep for three hours before she was awoken up by a knock at the door, she moved toward the door only to stop for a moment at the door handle.

"I went to woke up as Hinata Hyuuga but when I wake up next time I will Queen Hinata ruler of the Demon Feline kingdom." thought Hinata as she remembered how Gamba didn't have a last name only a title, first it was crowned prince future ruler of the Feline Kingdom and then it was King Gamba the first, Royal Ruler of the Feline Kingdom but he was better known as King Gamba. Slowly she opened the door only to come face to face with three demon felines. The front one was an elder demon lion with golden brown fur. It was among the first names she had to learn, it was Gamba's oldest half sister and first child of the dead king.

"Morning Mai." said Hinata as the Gamba's oldest half sister and the head of the main Religious order; she had long ago given up any claim to the throne to follow God even though she was the first born of all the sibling. Because of that if anything happened to either Gamba or very soon herself Gamba's second oldest sister's son would take the throne.

"Morning Lady Hinata, it is time." said Mai as Hinata looked at the two other priestesses. Both of them held giant hocked canes with a large oil lamp. She had never seen the panther but she smiled as she recognized Shion.

"Nice to see you Shion." said Hinata as Shion nodded her head.

"Lady Hinata we don't have time to waste, we have to follow the traditional time frame." explained Mai as she took the lead chanting an ancient prayer with Hinata right behind her flanked on either side. The lead Hinata though the ancient temple, they walked though a upper outdoor corridor which was lined with stone columns. Hinata looked out of the gaps in between the columns, she could see the entire capital city below, all the lights where shinning bright. She didn't have a clear look at the royal city since the lion forest was in a direct line of sight between the temple and the Royal City. She turned away as they walked though large wooden doors and entered the main washing chamber, as pure tradition before all feline mating ceremonies the woman had to take a ritual bath. In most cases this happened at a local temple or even a spa but this was a royal wedding which meant using the holy wash room. The entire room was a perfect square supported by four marble columns. Hinata walked toward the center as the three priestess stayed outside closing the giant doors behind her. Slowly Hinata moved to the center though a small path between ten rows of a thousand candles each stopping the moment her feet hit the purified bless water which rested in a large square pool in the center of the room. Hinata stopped for a moment and said a prayer before walking into the water. The water only went up to her hips as chanting from what was probably the entire high priesthood was piped in, she knew that she was going to spend the next hour in meditation using the warm water, candle light and chanting to focus her mind.

The sun was just poking its head though the darkness as Kakashi stood on the runway of the demon ape military airfield.

"So what are we doing here?" asked Kakashi as Dr. Winter's walked up to him. The two of them, the last demon ape and the long time commander of the human resistance stood before a large hanger.

"Like I said I need your help to save as many human lives as possible." explained Dr. Winters

"How so?" asked Kakashi as the hanger doors opened to show a giant black aircraft with two engines located inside the aircraft. The aircraft was what the demon apes called a flying wing design and was designed for stealth operations. (Think of the B2 Spirit)

"What is that?" asked Kakashi

"That is the C-7 Liberator Bomber, one of the most advanced bombers we ever created." explained Doctor Winters as he walked up to the aircraft. "I am trained to fly this baby but the weapon system requires a second operator."

"So you're going to bomb the demons?" asked Kakashi

"In a way." said Dr. Winters as walked over to a nearby podium. He touched the podium with his hand as a holographic screen appeared.

"IA and DNA scanned expected, what do you require Dr. Winters?" asked a male AI voice

"I want the Liberator to be loaded is a single 5 megaton antimatter bomb." answered Dr. Winters

"Warning blast radius of weapon is 25 miles, do you wish to load this weapon?" asked the AI

"I do.' answered Dr. Winters as Kakashi looked at him.

"Isn't that the type of weapon you used to end the last demon war?" asked Kakashi

"A much smaller version." answered Dr Winters as part of the floor under the aircraft opened up and a bomb no larger than a small bookcase was risen up by robot arms into the aircraft. "To end the last war we launched a single ICBM which contained ten warheads each in the power range of 50 megaton range. That single missile destroyed the entire demon lizard country and we have enough to destroy this world 40 times over and that isn't even counting the small ones like these."

"Hard to image something so small being so deadly." observed Kakashi

"This is nothing; we created biological weapons so deadly that it could kill a you with a single pin prick. We came up with so many ways to kill ourselves and our enemies in more and more inventive ways." explained Dr. Winter before he lowered his head "It's truly sad that with all our technology our greatest achievements are in the form of military weapons."

"So what is the plan?" asked Kakashi "Because I don't see you using this as a weapon."

"You should know as a ninja there are many ways to stop an attack." stated Dr. Winters with a grin.

The sun was now high over the demon feline capital city and the weather was perfect midsummer day, a sunny day without a cloud in the sky. A slight cooling breeze blew over the city keeping the hundreds of thousands who lined the streets cool as they sat in the bleachers which had been set up. Across the road hanging from lines where row after row of flags and banners. TV Cameras along with regular privately own cameras lined the route to record every moment of the event. There was only a few places as busier then the demon feline forest which was located near the center of the city. Standing in a private room preparing himself for what was going to happen. He had already taken his ritual cleansing bath and had done all the prayers. He had even placed the crown on his head.

"Sir, it is time." said a voice which Gamba knew all too well.

"Thank you Itachi." replied Gamba as he turned to his personal guard and one of his closest friends. Itachi had been given the great honor of being what humans would call a groomsmen. He would represent the panthers standing beside the king during the ceremony.

"Sir, permission to speak freely?" asked Itachi

"You always have it my friend." answered Gamba

"It's alright to be scared; this is once in a lifetime event and a day which you will always remember. Just enjoy yourself." explained Itachi as Gamba nodded as he headed out of the room and down to the main courtyard. As he walked out of the building all the royal guards came to attention as their king walked past them. He couldn't help but notice that about every fifth of them a large poll with either, a golden lion, a silver tiger or a bronze panther on them. Under those small statues where banners royal guards, he knew that everyone of military unite taking part in the ceremony, which was almost every military unite under his command in one form or another, would be carrying their standard. Finally he reached the front of the royal guard before him stood the massive gates of the lion forests.

"You ready little brother?" asked the head of the religious order, his oldest sister Mai. She would lead the wedding procession along with dozens of priest and priestess who would be singing chants, offering prayers and burning incent.

Gamba paused for a moment as he looked behind him at the lines of royal guard who was formed up behind him waiting to march out. Standing to his left was Itachi to stand for the panthers, to his right was Vachan for the tigers. He had chosen Vachan to stand for the tigers to help smooth over things with the traditionalist. Things had to be smoothed over a bit since he had two foxes walking at the head of the procession with him. Normally the representatives of the other races would march behind the royal guard with the government officials however there was a loop hole which allowed those who had saved the lives of the King or the future Queen to march with the King or Queen. This was the loop hole which they were using to let Hinata's friends take a more active role. Since Naruto and Shikamaru had saved Hinata's life during the 4th ninja war they had been granted the honor of walking near the front.

"Has everyone arrived?" asked Gamba

"The delegation from the wolves and the ants showed up only an hour ago." explained an aid as Gamba nodded his head it wasn't unexpected that those two nations would come late if at all.

"Are they in positions?" asked Gamba

"Yes, they are with the others." answered the aid as he took a breath "However I think you should know that he came with them."

Gamba tried not to growl he knew who he meant, Kiba Inuzuka was in his kingdom. Kiba was considered a war criminal by all the demon felines. Gamba's biggest regret was agreeing to let him go in that woods in the human world however he knew that Hinata now felt the same way and given the same thing happened again Kiba would be dead.

"Don't let this ruin your day my king." Said the aid they all knew that since Kiba was part of a diplomatic delegation they couldn't do anything to him.

"Open the gates and let's get started." ordered Gamba as the massive gates opened up, almost instantly the flashes of thousands of cameras went off as the march to the royal city began with the priestess and priest in the lead followed by Gamba and the royal guards, next came government offices with the representatives from the other nations and came the military parade ending with Hinata's procession which would take her to the royal city. All in all it would take at least three hours to get through it all and start the actual ceremony.

The hours seamed to pass slowly for Hinata as she waited for her grand entrees. She stood beside the largest of the three carriers. These carriers were designed to be carried by a highly trained teams and all of them had to extremely strong in order to carry the gold covered carrier. The two smaller carriers where opened to the elements so all could see who was riding in it. Hers however had a roof with white almost see though cloth surrounding it. Traditionally this cloth would have been red but Hinata had changed it to match the human tradition of a white wedding dress. Queen Mother Oda was already sitting in her carrier; tradition was to have the Queen mother and the mother of the future Queen. Since Hinata's mother died years ago a portrait of her was placed in the seat.

"You ready Lady Hinata?" asked Fay as Hinata nodded her head before heading toward her carrier.

"Good luck Hinata." said Sakura, who had been given the great honor of walking with the bridesmaids since she had saved Hinata's life during Pain's attack on the Leaf.

"And thanks for lying a bit." added Ino

Hinata laughed a bit, both of them knew that Hinata and Gamba had pushed the limits a bit on that expectation to the rule but she wanted her friends to play a role in the wedding.

"Well it was the only way to get you two in this thing." explained Hinata "I mean if this didn't happen and we were still human I would have you two as my bridesmaids along with my sister."

"Well your sister is your maid of honor so we know she would be it if we were still humans but who would be second me or forehead?" asked Ino as Sakura rolled her eyes as Hinata laughed a bit before walking away knowing that Ino would bring it up with her best friend multiple times before the week was out.

Hinata moved up to her carrier as the procession started for her. She was carried though the streets as the citizens cheered and took photos at every possible moment. She was so blinded by the camera flashes she could just make out blurry shapes as she waved back and forth. The pure white silk screen prevented anyone from getting a clear camera shot at her. She just kept waving as she passed the subjects. Everything seemed to speed up for her as they moved though the streets people throwing roses and other flowers on the ground as she passed. Finally she reached the gates of the royal city and the carrier came to a stop. She took a deep breath as she got off the carrier only to be bombarded by photographs. Tradition was to have the carrier take her all the way up to the alter located in front of the main building but she decided to change it up to reflect more of the human traditions. Waiting for to escort her the rest of the way was her father.

"You look perfect." said Hiashi as Hinata looked from him to the literally hundred thousand demons who were looking at her and the millions more watching this moment on their TV.

"Thanks father." responded Hinata as she kissed him on the cheek before taking one of his hands and grabbing some flowers from her sister in the other. Once she had the flowers in her hands she started walking toward Gamba who was waiting for her at the altar. As she passed the military members who stood in perfect formation facing her turned to face the alter. Walking behind her was more military members to fill in the walkway, behind the military came a flood of civilians who wanted to get as close as possible for the historic moment. Hinata's mind wasn't on that it was one Gamba because while all eyes were on her, she was just looking at him. It felt like mere moments before she stood across from Gamba.

"You are stunning." stated Gamba as Hinata simply smiled at the comment.

"You ready for this?" asked Hinata as she left her father's hand and took Gamba. Haishi Hyuuga moved down a few flights of stairs so that he was on the same level as Queen Mother Oda, one the three stairs in front of them were the representatives of the three demon feline races. Standing beside Gamba was the son of his second oldest sister, if Gamba and Hinata failed to have clubs he would become king and his line would take over. Next to him was Vachan for the tigers and the Itachi for the panthers. Beside Hinata was her sister followed by yet another former turned human Konan and ending with Itachi's mate-in-waiting Fay.

"Shall we begin?" asked Mai as she stood on the top step with Gamba and Hinata.

"Yes, sister." answered Gamba as Mai opened a large book and began to read the mating ceremony all the while thousands of pictures were being taken and millions held their breaths in waiting.

Standing the crowd unable to look up at the love of his life marrying someone else was Kiba.

"I shouldn't have come." whispered Kiba

"You choice to come here." answered the bright red wolf, Karin who was standing beside him. To save him from being kicked out of the military for being drunk and missing a training session. She had told command that they were sleeping together however this lie had gotten out of hand and now they had been assigned to the same military housing which meant they now lived together. They had even assigned them the same hotel room in the demon feline kingdom. They had kept up the charade by having one of them sleep on the couch, normally Kiba. She didn't want to say it out load but on some levels she had gotten used to having a him around and when he wasn't drunk she actually enjoyed it.

"Besides maybe this will help you get over your drinking." added Karin

"I don't have a drinking problem." replied Kiba as Karin simply gave him the stink eye. "Alright maybe I do a little."

"A little?" asked Karin

"Will you two shut up?" asked a wolf behind them as Kiba looked back up at the altar.

"Do you Hinata Hyuuga swear before the spirits, the line of kings and those gathered here to take your King, Gamba the first to be your mate to guide his hand and help him carrying on the glory of the Kingdom?" asked Head Priestess Mai

"I swear." Answered Hinata as her white eyes never stopped looking into Gamba's blue eyes

"Do you King Gamba take Hinata Hyuuga to be not only your Queen but as your mate? Do you swear to trust her advice above all others and allow her to help you rule our kingdom so that the glory never ends?" asked Head Priestess Mai

"I swear." answered Gamba as Hinata's smile grew even wider, normally this would mark the end of the ceremony however they had changed it a bit.

"Do you two also swear to love each other from now until the end?" asked Priestess Mai

"We do." answered Hinata and Gamba at the same time.

"Very well." answered Mai as she closed the book. "Then by the power granted to me as head priestess I proclaim you two to be mated, may the rest of your lives be as happy as this."

Without waiting another moment the two of them kissed for the first time as a married couple. Both of them closed their eyes as clapping filled the air, all over the kingdom people rang bells and danced in the streets.

"I love you, Gamba." said Hinata as they finally they pulled apart.

"And I love you Hinata." replied Gamba as the two of them faced the crowed, when Hinata's back was turned, her sister walked up behind her and placed a golden tiara with a large red ruby and diamond center on her head.

"I present to you all your rulers, King Gamba and our new Queen Hinata." stated Mai as the roar of the crowed grew to its peak as Hinata and Gamba with their arms wrapped around each other waved back at the crowed before kissing again.

In the human world a convoy of over fifty ships where moving across the ocean heading toward an attack on the demon feline outpost. The lead ships where filled not with ninjas but filled with high explosives. The plan was to have these ships to be sent in on a suicide run only to explode when they hit the beach hopefully killing a lot of the defenders. The only problem was that the demons knew that they were coming and were already making preparations however unknown to any of them a lone aircraft flew though the clouds. Sitting in the cockpit was Doctor Winters controlling the aircraft and Kakashi Hatake who was sitting at weapons control. Kakashi was still trying to get used to the idea that they were flying though the clouds faster than any bird and much higher too.

"We are five minutes from the drop zone." answered Dr. Winters as he hit the autopilot before turning to Kakashi. "You should try talking to her about how you feel?"

"What are you talking about?" asked Kakashi

"You and Shizune." answered Dr. Winters "It is clear to anyone looking in that something is there."

"We are just good friends." explained Kakashi

"Just Good friends is how I met my late wife." answered Dr. Winters as the computer beeped. "We are in radio range. You're on."

"Alright." said Kakashi as he did what Dr. Winters had taught him on how to work the radio system. "Kakashi Hatake calling Mizukage Mei Terumi please come in."

Kakashi waited for what seemed like forever until finally the radio came to life.

"Kakashi please tell me that you are calling to tell me you changed your mind about the demon and are about launch your attack on them." said Mei Terumi over the radio.

"No, I am here to stop you from launching a suicide attack." explained Kakashi

"This is the only way to gain victory." stated Mei Terumi

"You are heading into a trap." explained Kakashi "They are waiting for you."

"I am counting on that." said Mei Terumi "They will have no idea what hit them. Now either help us or get out of our way."

"I plan on helping you by saving you from yourselves." answered Kakashi as the line went dead. "So what are we going to do?"

"We are going to stop them." answered Dr. Winters as the bomber began to slow down as they neared the bomb release point. "I need you to place your hand on the control panel."

"Alright." answered Kakashi as he placed his hand on the computer screen. Instantly a small box appeared around his hand. He looked over his shoulder to see that Dr. Winters was doing the same thing.

"Pilot do you approve of dropping the antimatter bomb?" asked a computerized voice as the computer scanned his palm.

"I do." answered Dr. Winters

"Weapon operator do you approve of dropping antimatter bomb?" asked the same computerized voice

"I do." answered Kakashi as the bomber flew over the fleet and headed toward the island were the feline fort was located near lightening country.

"Weapon system is armed, you may drop when ready." answered the computerized voice as the bomb bay opened

"What was that?" asked Kakashi

"As a safety measure unless an order comes from the command military AI or central command an antimatter bomb can't be dropped without two people agree to it." explained Dr. Winters as they reached the drop point. Dr. Winters reached for a red switch on the flight control panel. He flipped the switch as the bomb released from the bomber. The Liberator banked away as the antimatter bomb fell away and headed to the surface below. The bomb fell to earth before striking the water, however instead of exploding it dove under the surface.

"How far does the bomb have to go?" asked Kakashi as he looked at the head up display showing the bomb traveling under the water.

"It needs to be at least ten miles down." answered Dr. Winters "That is why we had to drop it in the deepest part of the ocean."

"How long?" asked Kakashi

"Shouldn't take long." answered Dr. Winters as the bomb passed the two mile range.

On the surface everything seemed calm as the ships moved across the ocean, they were still almost eight hours away from their goal. They were planning to reach the area just after dusk and start landing some of the ANBU in the dark. Those forces would wait on the beach until sunrise when the main force would launch their landing assault. The decks of the ships where covered with ninjas who were enjoying the ocean air before the coming battle. Suddenly a surface of the water in front of them glowed a pure white as a giant ball of light pushed out of the water a few miles in front of the ships. There was no time to move as a tidal wave came toward them, hitting the ships head on. The explosion ripped apart the lead ships causing them to explode in giant fireballs. The ships a little bit deeper in the formation took heavy damage with holes opening in the haul and breaking propellers. A few ships caught fire as their internal fuel tanks caught fire. The Liberator turned back toward the fleet as the blast from the antimatter bomb faded. Kakashi's eyes widened as he saw the burning and damaged ships.

"My God." said Kakashi

"That should stop them from carrying out their attack." answered Dr. Winters as the Liberator headed away from the fleet.

Well Hinata is now Queen and I hope you liked the wedding. I would like to thank everyone who reviewed and I hope you keep on reading. I hoped you all had a happy holiday and I will see you all in the New Year. Thanks Wilkins75
