Part 12

Amy's POV

               On the day of the wedding the sun rose early, and I found that I didn't sleep as much as I would have liked. Even after drawing the curtains and putting a pillow over my face, I could not go back to sleep. Giving up, I went downstairs to quickly check the weather for this afternoon. Cloudy. "Thank god it's going to be inside." I trudge back upstairs. I had spent the night in my own house, and was supposed to bring some of the makeup over. Grabbing a backpack from my closet, I went into my bathroom and started stuffing it with Redkin products, hair gel, perfume, hair ties, hair clips, eyelash curlers, mascara, foundation, lipstick, a straightner, curler, and some makeup remover. Heading to the kitchen I made a quick breakfast, just an egg and toast. There would be plenty of food later at the reception, so I didn't eat a whole bunch. Then I got ready to head out.

                Since I had learned how to control the Chaos Emerald's power, I barely even used my bike anymore.  It was just SO EASY to get from one place to another! I've started to wonder how everyone else can stand it. Shadow had explained the rules to me; you could do anything as long as it didn't disrupt time, fate, or dimensions. It took some getting used to, but as soon as I got it down I kinda went overboard.  It does slightly drain your energy though. After 'teleporting' to the mall and back and making money appear out of thin air, I wasn't excatly bounccing around. That's why Shadow demanded that I work on endurance while training.

                Glancing at the clock I saw it was 9:32. "I better get going." I sighed.  Grabbing my backpack I stood up. After rummaging around a bit I pulled out a red chaos emerald from my pocket. Taking a deep breath I closed my eyes. I shifted all my thoughts to Rouge's house. "Chaos Control." I murmured softly. There was a strange sensation that made me feel lightheaded and buoyant --kind of like when you sit up too fast- and my feet touched rough ground. Opening my eyes I found myself on Rouge's doorstep. "Wait………my feet?" I thought. I looked down to see two bare, pink feet on the cement. "Shit! I forgot my shoes!" I yelled loudly. Quickly, I Chaos Controlled back to my room and grabbed the pair of silver high heels I needed. Slipping them on my feet, I went back. "I hope no one heard that." I thought to myself, embarrassed. Rouge was waiting for me. "Well good morning Miss Forgetful, we were wondering when you'd show up." Glaring at her, I stomped inside. "Amy, we could hear you from inside." Cream said happily, sitting in front of a huge flat screen. My anger melted. "Whoa. Your house is bigger than I remembered!" I told Rouge in amazement.  I'd only been here once before, and to call it a house now was kind of an understatement. "Here's the stuff." I said in a rush, dumping the backpack in her arms. I was desperate to see how many Wii games were on that shelf. "H-hey!" She yelled. "There's a WEDDING going on today you know!!!!!!!"

                Rouge had hired a professional to do our hair. After about 3 hours, we were all ready to go. I slipped on my bridesmaid dress, careful not to get my hair messed up, and then we were on our way to the church.

                The church was located in a meadow at the base of the mountains. It had been around for a very long time and looked like some kind of small castle from a fairy tale. It didn't even look like it could be a building from outside. Maybe a monument…. The inside however, had been renovated a few years back for weddings, and looked fairly modern. We had some time before the wedding started, so I went to visit with some of the guests.

                 Rouge had invited EVERYONE. From the members of the Chaotix Detective Agency, to Big and Jet. The only ones who weren't here were Sonic, and some old members from the Freedom Fighters. "But today, I'm not even going to think of Sonic." I promised myself. "Nothing is going to ruin my mood today." Then, I heard from Blaze that the wedding was about to take place. Silver was the best man and went to go stand with Knuckles at the altar. Everyone else who was in the procession went outside.  Blaze, Jet, Shadow, and I were the Bridesmaids and Groomsmen. We were the first to enter.

                                                In pairs.

                  It pissed me off that Blaze suddenly 'claimed' Jet and made me walk with Shadow. I had planned to suddenly disappear with Jet before the ceremony started so Blaze would have no choice, but when I got outside she was right by him. I guess I have no choice….. After us were Tails and Cream. The ring bearer and flower girl. Rouge hoped that Cream would enjoy walking next to him. Smiling, I remembered her face when we told her! Next was Tikal, the maid of honor, and then Rouge herself.

                Finally, it was time to start. We all lined up in order and the wedding began. Well, except one. Shadow was trying to escape. Running over, I grabbed his arm and lugged him over. He had never wanted to do this in the first place, but these are his friends. (As much as he doesn't want to admit it) So I'm making him.

                    We walked down the aisle behind Blaze and Jet. Just then, I saw a very jealous looking Silver glaring at Jet with Blaze. "He must really like her…" I thought. Then I happened to glance at Shadow's face. It was……expressionless, almost annoyed. "TRY to at least look happy!" I whispered angrily. His eyes flickered to me for a second, and then forward again. There was still no emotion on his face. We got up to the altar and stood next to Blaze. Then Rouge entered. While everyone's eyes were on her I swiftly kicked his shin. He growled darkly and gave me a death stare.  I simple looked at him. He put on a fake smirk. However, as the wedding progressed, that smirk became real.

After Rouge got to the altar, Knuckles worries seemed to be wiped off his face. He took her hands in his calmly as the Priest, spoke. He took forever, but it was finally time for the vows.
                  
                 Knuckles took a VERY deep breath; "I, Knuckles the Echidna, take you Rouge the Bat, to be my wife, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and honor you; I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully through the best and the worst, through the difficult and the easy. What may come I will always be there. As I have given you my hand to hold, so I give you my life to keep. So help me God."  He finished looking rather pleased with himself.
                   
                  By this time, preludes of tears were starting to well up in Rouge's eyes. She cleared her throat and began; "I-I, Rouge the Bat, take you Knuckles the Echidna, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and honor you; I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully through the best and the worst, through the difficult and the easy. What may come I will always be there. As I have given you my hand to hold, so I give you my life to keep. So help me God." She stated wiping her eyes.

                  Then they both spoke in unison; "Entreat me not to leave you, or to return from following after you. For where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. And where you die, I will die and there I will be buried. May the Lord do with me and more if anything but death parts you from me."

                  Tails stood up and presented the rings. Which they placed upon each other's hands.
The old Labrador took both of their right hands together, "Those whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder." Then he faced the two. "Rouge and Knuckles have now given and pledged themselves to each other. I am happy to pronounce them Husband and Wife. You may kiss the bride. I smiled as they kissed. It was the light kind of kiss that showed you how much love and devotion was between them. Just within earshot, I could hear the minister murmur a blessing.


Silver's POV

                   The reception was AWESOME! HOLY CRAP they had all these different kinds of food and It was amazing! Somehow me and Blaze got into a watermelon eating contest and I got really full! It did annoy me that I couldn't walk with Blaze….but I guess its ok...


Amy's POV

                 Wow, the reception was really nice. It had started raining outside but there was such a cheery atmosphere in here that I don't think anyone cared.  I was grabbing some punch with Cream when the music stopped suddenly. I looked around, surprised, and laughed nervously. "What's wrong-" I managed to get out. But then my voice somehow cut off suddenly. Standing in the doorway was someone I was all too familiar with.
                                  It was Sonic.
