Angels Fall First

[Reno]

Everyone stood there uncomfortably.

"If anyone believes these two should not be married speak now or forever hold your peace."

Everyone stood, many had words on the tips of their tougnes, ready to tear down this unholy marriage. Iris hid her face behond her boquet of flowers, tears in her eyes. Sora couldn;t help but send a death glare the groom's way, undying hate in his eyes. this man would never be his father. Ever. Adan only stared at the floor.

The kids could say nothing no matter how much they wished it.

Their mother was going to marry Phillip. A nd they hated it but what could they say? Their mom would be happy...

Thats what mattered most right?

[Jade]

There was silence in the room no one would dare object, if they valued their lives... he had played everything right wooing her in every possible perfect way. He everything Raichu wasnt... a better man... a better lover... his eyes narrowed suddenly in the direction of the priest giving him a look telling him too hurry on with it. Because now... Raichu was dead... and his wife belonged too him...

[Reno]

The priest coughed nervously. "I now pronounce you man and wife, you may now kiss the bride"

Sora bowed his head, shutting his eyes tightly. He didn;t want to see this.

[Jade]

Philip removed the veil that covered her eyes a smile on his face as he leaned down suddenly kissing her pulling her close against him, now his only obstacle were those children... but that would be easy... hed get rid of them... one by one...

[Reno]

Aeris shut her eyes, leaning against him, kissing back.

There were no cheers, no happiness. This marriage would mean hell for the rest of them.

[Jade]

Rytens eyes narrowed this idea of this was sick... Aeris... she had... betrayed them... he gripped his fist tightly taking a step back, this man... he had tried too kill his real mother in several occassions...

Philip broke away a smirk on his face " Mine..."

[Reno]

"come on." Sora said, a hint of anger in his tone. He put his hand on Ryten's shoulder and led him away, the other kids following him. They had seen enough.

~~~~~

It was late at night, a whole week after Aeris and Phillip had returned from the honeymoon. The kids were around the table, the clock striking midnight but none of them could sleep.

"I don;t like him." Iris said, tears in her eyes. "i hate him!"

Adan sighed, patting her on the back. "what can we do."

Sora scowled, slamming his hand on the table. "we should of said something should have should have... argh..." The brunette sighed.

[Jade]

" He... didnt he try too kill dad before?" Kenji asked suddenly fear in his voice

[Reno]

Sora frowned, hating to be the bearer of bad news. He nodded slowly. "Yeah... he apparently lost to dad in some tournament, got pissed off and tried to kill dad... and Ayane-kaa-san."

Adan's head jerked up. "what?!" he never heard that before!

[Jade]

Kenji shivered suddenly " Then... why would... why would mom!?"

[Reno]

Sora shook his head. "i don;t know." He murmured frowning.

[Jade]

" You don't know what?" A much deeper voice sounded from behind the children his eyes narrowed looking at them suspicously

[Reno]

Adan tensed, a shiver of fear working down his spine.

Iris gripped onto Kenji;s hand, her eyes not even daring to look up.

Sora looked back his eyes narrowing. "you know its not polite to evesdrop."

[Jade]

" Is that how you speak too your father boy?" He started in Sora's direction

[Reno]

Sora stood angrily. He was... well a lot shorter then this man - no surprise there - but he still held his head high. "Your not my father."
