A Royal Secret

Chapter 31: The Grand Finale!

A few months later after Sonic popped the question to Amy everyone was getting ready for the big day, which is being held at the palace. Sonic was in his room getting ready in his outfit for the big day. He was wearing a regal white suit with silver buttons and was also trimmed with silver with matching pants, black shoes and was also wearing his king's crown.

"Can't believe it." Sonic told himself in the mirror. "It's my wedding day…I'm even surprised at myself that I have to guts to get married, especially to Amy…"

While he was thinking, he heard a knock at the door and he came back into reality.

"Oh, come in." Sonic said to the person and Sonia and Manic came in. Sonia was wearing a light blue bridesmaid dress and her quills were put into a ponytail and Manic was wearing a similar outfit to Sonic's except that he has a red sash across his shirt. "Sonia, Manic, hi."

"Hey bro." Manic greeted him. "You ready?"

"Yeah, I guess…" Sonic said modestly.

"'You guess?'" Sonia repeated, with a puzzled look on her face. "You nervous?"

"You can tell?" Sonic mocked a bit. "Yeah, I'm nervous…just in doubt."

"You're not backing down on your big day, are yah Sonic?" Manic asked concerned.

"What? No. I'm not backing away." Sonic said, firmly. "I love Amy with all my heart and nothing in the world will stop me from marrying her."

"That's the spirit." Sonia smiled proudly at her brother. "Now, let's go, it's gonna start any minute."

With new courage in his heart, Sonic got up and left the door followed by Manic and Sonia.

~With Amy…~

"Almost done, Amy." Tikal said as was busy making up Amy's face and Blaze was busy brushing up and curling the pink hedgehog's hair and they were hard at work until she was finished. "There! See?"

Tikal held a mirror to Amy's face and Amy saw her face in the mirror and smiled; she had on dusty pink eye shadow on her eyelids, matching pink lipstick and had blush on her cheeks that complimented her muzzle's skin tone.

"Tikal, Blaze, it's perfect!" Amy told her echidna friend. "I love it!"

"Aww, I try." Tikal said, coyly and blushing.

"You're welcome, Amy." Blaze said happily to her.

Amy got up and looked at herself in the long mirror and saw herself; she was wearing a pale white and pink wedding dress, decorated with soft pink roses at the skirt and the top part of the dress was strapless and exposes her back and shows off a bit of her cleavage. Her pink quills were curled and perfectly framed her face like an angel and she was wearing a tiara comb in her hair, decorated with pink heart diamonds and sky blue star diamonds and of course, a sparkly white and silver headband where a trailing sparkly pink veil came from it.

"I look like a princess." Amy gushed; looking at herself in the mirror happily and she started getting emotional and cried a bit.

"In a few moments you will." Rouge came in, holding her bouquet and handed Amy a tissue. "Don't cry Amy, you'll ruin your make up."

"Sorry, Rouge." the pink hedgehog apologized. "I just got so emotional at the moment that I…well…"

"Come on, Amy. It's time." Cream came in, in her perky little voice and was carrying her flower girl basket in her arms.

Amy and the other girls went to the wedding alter and Amy put her veil down over her head, making her a mysterious beauty. Everyone saw the alter was decorated with banners of blue, pink and lavender, iridescent crystals and white roses. Amy saw Sonic at the top of the alter and blushed when she saw how handsome he looked. She got herself ready as the Wedding March began to play and the bridesmaids went up first, followed by Cream; who joyfully scattered flowers down the isle and finally, when the bride came up, everyone stopped and stared, including Sonic.

"Wow…she looks like an angel…" Sonic though to himself as Amy walked up to the alter. Then, his sudden nervousness from before has melted away, replaces with bravery, knowing he's marrying a girl who he wants to spend rest of his life with. When she made it to the alter, he lifted the veil off and saw Amy's beautiful face. Amy then gave her bouquet to Cream and she and Sonic both held hands as the ceremony continued and to honor the occasion, Sonic's father decided to give the honor of preceding the ceremony.

"We're gathered here today, to join in holy matrimony to King Sonic to Lady Amy Rose." King Edward began. "If anyone objects to this union speak now or forever hold your peace."

Everyone remained quiet at that part and then the king continued.

"Sonic, do you take the lovely Amy Rose as your wife?"

"I do." Sonic said, proudly.

"And do you Amy Rose; take Sonic as your husband?"

"I do." Amy smiled and nodded.

"Then, by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. Sonic, you may kiss the bride."

Sonic and Amy faced each other a shared a very sweet and tender kiss and everyone cheered at the wedding and rose petals began falling from the roof. Sonic then carried Amy bridal style and went to the reception and it lasted for a great while until it nightfall and it was time for Sonic and Amy to leave for their honeymoon. The both got into the carriage smiling, laughing and waving at the cheering crowd.

"Ready to go, Ames?" Sonic asked his wife.

"Almost…" Amy smirked as she tossed the bouquet in the crowd and as luck would have it Cream caught it.

"I got it! I got it!" Cream squealed in delight at catching her best friend's bouquet. Sonic and Amy gave one more wave to the crowd as their carriage left the castle for their honeymoon.

~However…meanwhile at the edge of the wood…~

Scourge's glasses landed on the ground somewhere far from his old castle. An unknown figure came up to them and saw them on the ground; they picked it up and looked at it closely. Their face isn't seen clearly but in the faint moonlight, a wicked smile was revealed and the figure's voice turned out to be a young female's voice.

"Scourge will return…One day Sonic…you and your family will know the true meaning of death and despair…"
