The minions of the AoC that were around the church were patrolling the area, in case if the CM gang decided to roll in. They kept a sharp eye on their surroundings, although it was dark outside, so they couldn't see very well through the trees and bushes that were around them. Then they heard the roaring of engines, as they turned their attention towards where the sound was coming from. They saw lights coming towards them from behind some bushes, as they prepared themselves to attack. The minions were surprised when the lights, that were actually motorcycles, quickly busted through the crowd of monsters. The minions quickly ran and jumped on the motorcycles to stop them from getting to the church and from running over anymore of their fellow minions. They were able to attack the motorcycles at the same time and break them in pieces. However, the minions were surprised to see that no person was on any of the motorcycles. They searched through the remnants and even the direction where the motorcycles came from, but they found no person in sight.
Above, while the minions were searching for the motorcycle riders, the CM gang were riding on their Soaring Rapids in the air towards the church.
"They fell for it," Charlie said, as the CM gang and the Soaring Rapids approached the front door.
After Charlie opened the door, the CM gang and the Soaring Rapids quickly entered the church. They jumped off of their horses, as they locked and barricaded the doors so that the minions wouldn't interfere.
"Okay, let's see what's going on here," Charlie said, and the others nodded in agreement.
The CM gang started walking towards another door, since the room they were in was an all white lobby with a round black rug on the floor. They came to a stop when they noticed that the Soaring Rapids weren't following them.
"What's the matter guys?" Violet asked.
Thunder walked towards Violet and neighed, as the other horses stood in line towards the barricaded door.
"I think they're guarding the doors for us," Lester said.
"Aw, thanks guys," Rex said, as the horses turned and nodded, and then they turned forward again.
"Thanks buddy. Be safe," Violet said, as she patted the side of Thunder's face and he nodded.
As Thunder turned to guard the door, Violet turned and went with the CM gang to the next room.
The next room was all white, but the walls were more gray, and it was more of a large and long hallway than a room.
"This is weird," Rex commented, as they started walking forward.
"It is... and does anyone else hear music?" Paul asked, as they started to hear a faint melody getting louder as they walked through the hallway.
"Yeah. What is that?" Charlie asked, as the melody sound became a little more clearer.
"It's an organ," Lester replied.
"Organ?" Violet asked.
"A church organ. You know, those big pianos," Tommy replied.
"Oh. I thought he was talking about an actual organ," Violet nearly whispered, as the others chuckled.
Then, when they were about three quarters of the way through the hallway, the melody sounded very familiar.
"Isn't that a wedding song?" Kelly asked.
"Yeah. It sounds like it," Lester replied.
Then they noticed a large window just above the tall wooden doors before them.
"Throw me up real quick Rex. I want to see what's going on before we enter. There might be more monsters," Violet said, and Rex agreed.
He intertwined his fingers together, as he kept his hands in front of him, while Violet placed both of her feet on his hands. Then Rex boost Violet up quickly and with a good amount of strength so that she could jump high enough to look through the window. As Violet was in the air, she looked through the window carefully and saw something very odd. When she fell back down, Rex was able to catch her, as her expression showed that she was in intense thought with a hint of confusion.
"What is it? What did you see?" Paul asked.
"Wait... but why... they're not... it can't be... but why... -Gasp!-" Violet said as her eyes widened and her expression showed horror and shock.
"What's the matter?!" Charlie asked in surprise to Violet's expression.
"No... NO NO NO! HE WON'T! I WON'T LET HIM!" Violet shouted, as she took a mallet that Rex was carrying on his back, and ran straight towards the wooden doors.
With one powerful and mighty swing, Violet busted open the doors, as they swung open and nearly broke off of their hinges. Violet threw down the mallet on the ground as she ran inside the room, while the others followed, and Rex took his mallet back.
Inside, it was a large, white room with a few rows of chairs that led across the room. Near the other side of the room was a golden altar with a white curtain behind the one who stood behind the altar. Behind that curtain, more towards the right side of it, was the church organ that was being played by a familiar red beast that used to work for Lord Mortimer. However, the attention was more on the people who were at the altar. The one behind the altar stand was a creature with red eyes, a black top hat, half shredded bat wings, an invisible head besides his mouth that was black outside and red inside, a blue tailcoat with a black shirt inside and white gloves, and his legs were actually a blue fire that kept him floating in the air.
In front of the altar stood the AoC and Ani with their backs turned as they stood side by side. When Violet busted open the doors and ran in with the others, Ani and AoC quickly turned to see them.
"V-Violet?" Ani said, but AoC moved his arm in front of her so that she would stay put, as she looked down sadly.
Violet and the others stood a pretty short distance from the altar, as they readied their weapons, while Violet glared intensely at the AoC.
"-Sign- I understand if you people like crashing hotels, but I didn't think you liked crashing weddings too," AoC said, as he took one step forward.
Violet looked towards her mother, as her expression became concerned, but then it changed to surprise when she saw that Ani was holding a bouquet of white flowers.
"Mommy..." Violet called Ani, as her mother looked at her, and then she looked away regretfully.
AoC chuckled and said, "Oh dear child. You came a little too early for me to properly punish you. I would have preferred to wait until I became... your legal father."
The CM gang gasped in shock, besides Violet, who growled.
"Okay I'm totally confused, can someone explain what's going on?!" Charlie asked.
"Allow me," AoC said, and continued,
"You see, I not only made one deal with Ani. The first deal was to bring Vito back to life, which I did in exchange for her to open the portals. However, I realized that although I would be able to wander here, it would be on a time limit with certain restrictions on my powers, since I am not of this world. I would have to return to the Netherworld after awhile, and it would be pretty annoying since coming here was difficult enough, and it would take more time. But... I realized that if I had a legal right to be here, then I wouldn't have a time limit or restrictions on my powers since I would technically be a part of this world."
"So you wanted to marry Ani because she is from our world, and by being married you each have a claim over what the other has," Kelly said, to clarify what he was saying.
"Precisely," AoC said.
As this processed through the CM gang's minds, Charlie took a step forward and said,
"So after all the suffering you put Ani through by making her fight us and open the portals, you would still condemn her to more suffering by marrying you? Using something as sacred and as wonderful as marriage for your own dark purposes?"
The others looked at Charlie with some surprise, and then they looked towards AoC when he spoke,
"I wouldn't dare to let my queen suffer."
AoC turned towards Ani, as he placed his hand under her chin and gently nudged her head up so that she could look at him.
"No. I take great care of what belongs to ME," AoC said in a darker tone, as tears started streaming down Ani's cheeks.
"You monster..." Charlie said, as he looked downward while his hair fell over his eyes, and his shoulders were shaking.
Violet was also looking downward, as her shoulders were shaking as well.
"Guys..." Rex nearly whispered, as Violet and Charlie stood their ground.
AoC released Ani's chin, as he took one step towards them and said,
"Well, since you fools decided to interrupt, I'm going to have to subdue you all until after the marriage is complete. Of course, if you want to fight, then I'll have to be less lenient on all of you this time."
"Just shut your mouth you freaking FAKE SLENDERMAN!" Violet shouted, as she and Charlie raised their guns, Violet with a magnum and Charlie with a handgun, as they shot simultaneously.
AoC jerked back from the shots to his forehead, but he didn't step back. After a moment, AoC chuckled, and then he started to laugh, as his laugh echoed throughout the room.
"Alright then. You want to fight huh? You want to TUSSLE?! Beelzebaal! Mariago! Get in positions!"
Mariago, the creature behind the altar, grabbed ahold of a large black book on the altar and flew upward. Beelzebaal, who was playing the piano, turned around and flew towards where Ani was, as he lifted her up and flew back a bit.
"You..." Paul said, remembering the red-furred beast.
"Hm! Is that you Mortimor? You SON OF A JERK! I can't believe you betrayed us like you did before. Killing off Circe and King Tepes like the Grim freaking Reaper! I'm going to enjoy your destruction by the Angel of Chaos sucker!" Beelzebaal said, as he flew higher while holding Ani.
"Mom!" Violet called out to her mother.
"Oh don't worry dear child. You'll be able to see your mother, when YOU learn to behave! Now let's level the playing field!" AoC said, as his hands started glowing red, and then he slammed his hands onto the ground.
The ground cracked around AoC hands, as the cracks glowed red, and then a surge of red pulsed through the ground that went through everything in the room, including the walls and ceiling, as it all turned red. Then everything started to melt away, as the whole inside of the church morphed into one large room. When AoC lifted his hands from the ground, the room settled into it's new form:
The walls, ground, and ceiling turned rocky like a cave, in brown, green, and burgundy. The whole cave was in a large circle like an arena, while one side of the cave protruded from the wall, creating a zig-zag rocky pathway up to the top of a ledge that overlooked the whole cave.
Beelzebaal placed Ani on top of the ledge, as Mariago stood floating up there with her. Then Beelzebaal flew down near the bottom of the rocky ledge, and stood near the start of the rocky pathway.
The CM gang looked around in amazement at the change of their surroundings, but then they focused their attention on AoC when they saw him glowing black.
"Prepare for the End!" AoC said, as he started to transform.
