"Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God, and in the face of this company, to join together this Man and this Woman in holy Matrimony; which is an honourable estate; instituted of God, signifying unto us the mystical union, which is holy estate Christ adorned and beautified with his presence and first miracle that he wrought in Cana of Galilee, and is commended of Saint Paul to be honourable among all men: and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly; but revently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of God. Into this holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined. If any man can show just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace"

"I require and charge you both, as ye will answer at the dreadful day of judgement when the secrets of all hearts shall be disclosed, that if either of you know any impediment, why ye may not be lawfully joined together in Matrimony, ye do now confess it. For be ye well assured, that if any persons are joined together other than as God's word doth allow, their marriage is not lawful"

"Prince Hades Alexander Damon thou have this woman thy wedded wife, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Will thou love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsaking a others, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?"

"I do"

"Princess Ysabella Dawn Clesten thou have this man thy wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honour and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?"

"I do"

"With this Ring I thee wed: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit Amen"

"With this ring, I Prince Hades Alexander, take you Princess Ysabella Dawn, to be my beloved for the rest of my life. As I stand by your side, it is with the knowledge that our lives together will realize the promises that we have made today, and it is to this future that I humbly submit. I submit my life even in afterlife I will take you in my arms even if I die. I ask everyone present to witness that I take you as my partner in marriage. Today I become your husband and you become my wife. I promise to respect you as a whole person with your own interests, desire, and needs, and to realize that those are sometimes different, but no less important than my own. I will help you raise our children to become loving people, and support you in the fundamental role of parent.

In this beautiful palace I dedicate myself to you. Although our lives may change like the seasons, I will love you. As our love grows like a seed to a beautiful flower, I will love you. When the winds of doubt blow through, I will love you. We will stand together, strong, nurtured by each others love until the end.

December 13, 1891

Friday 12:31 am

The dark sky seemed to have a thunderstorm nearing yet the midst of air was subtle. The darkness of the December has it's betraying shadows concealing predators intended brutality and disasters. This year had been a catastrophe since King Helios arrived, for he thinks Prince Hades stole his woman. King Helios declared war and until now all of his people even innocent children stunned in his mess, in his war.

His anger reached its peak because even the poor people were dying for him.

"Prince Hades your carriage awaits," a young soldier approaches him while a man in a red coat suddenly walks towards him.

"Prince I was asked to give you this letter and only you can read this," fogs under his breath exhaled.

"Who gives you this letter, why they didn't send it to me personally if this is much important?"

"The letter will answer you," he answered while giving him a sly smile and turn his heels and left.

Slowly he read the red clay that stamp the letter 'infernum' alas Prince Hades knows who wrote him the letter, it is no other than King Helios his great contender.

Leisurely he opens the letter and his eyes widen at what he had read and briskly find the man in a red coat who had given him the letter. His eyes go dark and his knuckles turn white. He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.

'She tastes so good

She tastes so right

She's too delicate

But I can handle her so tight

She moves a little

She will die

You move a little

Both of you will die

Run run run your kingdom

Run run run your people

What a music in my ears of her moan

What a piece of music in my ears of her pleading

What a music in my ears as she yelp in agony

I love watching your little wife.

Come and see me Hades

"No, not my wife, you have to kill me first before you can hurt and get my wife," he muttered under his breath and within just a moment a man with a silver sword was slowly approaching him.

"King Helios," he gritted his teeth while while he's giving him a sly smile.

"It's twelve in the night Prince, it is such a catastrophe for you to be here at this time. May I know why?" he arched his brow as he lit a cigar he is holding.

"It is none of your business, it doesn't bother me what time is it. I am the one who runs my time," he muttered under his breath and a cold fog escape every time he breaths.

"No wonder your little wife is alone," he sarcastically stated pertaining to his wife.

"What are you talking about?" he gritted his teeth.

"Nothing, I just wanted to get what I own, you'll see," a vicious smile crossed in his lips together with sword he is holding.

"You bastard, you don't own anything!"

"How are you sure of that my prince?"

"I'm going to get your head off, but I hope not."

Scream covered the whole place as Prince Hades look at his chest that was stabbed by King Helios sword.

Blood was dripping.

Raspy voice was moaning.

"I will come back...and in afterlife you will see yours..." Prince Hades lastly said and lost consciousness.

"Hope is a bitch."
