The wedding music begins to play as Angie slowly walks through the paths as Lilly and Chloe throw flowers down.
"Woah," Angie exclaimed as she looked at the wedding palace. "Damn... This is beautiful" Nugget says to 07.
Edison sat with Evelyn and Quin as they watched Angie walk to the stage on the right side. The citizens were happy and smiling. Their faces filled with joy as they watched Angie walk.
She finally makes it onto the stage as the sun is about to set.
"Okay! Speech from uh-.. The priest! Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen, to this fabulous day! Our magnificent gods-" As Misha began to speak, Mark noticed Xuanyu not being here yet "Where's Xuanyu?" He asks Phoenix.
Phoenix shrugs "I don't know"
"-Mark and Angie. And finally... After so many years, these wonderful people are together. God, thank you. Can we have 10 seconds of silence please"
Misha began to countdown the 10 seconds. Xuanyu pops out of nowhere, running out of breath "I'm here! I'm here!!!" he screamed as he fell in the middle of the path. "What the-!?" The whole crowd saw.
"What the freak!? Wha- You- What the- What-!? What just happened!!? That 10 seconds of silence, some dude just-.. just-" The crowd and Mark began to laugh as Xuanyu got up from the ground "Ouch... Sorry," Xuanyu scratches his head as he gets up from the ground.
After that incident, Xuanyu sat down next to Nugget and 07. "Where the hell were you!?" Nugget asked. "I'll tell everyone later," He whispers.
"Tell everyone what?" 07 asked. "About Jun," Xuanyu answered. 07 and Nugget looked at Xuanyu with a concerned face.
"Alright, Angie, Will you always be true to god.. and be true to your future husband?" Misha asks.
"Yeah," She answered, looking into Mark's eyes. "Okay good. Mark, will you promise to always be true to god-" He gets interrupted by Mark yawning "Stop.. freaking yawning" The crowd laughs.
"My bad" Mark apologized. "Anyways, Will you always be true to god.. and be true to your bride" He continued. "Sure," Mark replied.
"Alright... Mark, do you take Angie as your wife?" He asked.
"Yup," Mark answered. "Angie.. Do you take Mark as your husband?" He asked Angie. "Yes," She replied.
"I hereby announce that you both are officially married!" He shouts. Phoenix gives Mark the ring as they exchange it with Angie. The crowd began cheering "Yay!"
Everyone was so happy for them. "Alright.. now kiss and shit," Misha said.
The whole crowd was silent waiting for them to kiss.
"No," Mark said. Phoenix smiled as he pushed Mark "Really!? Haha!"
"Time for the after-party!!" Misha jumps out of the stage "Let's get drunk!!!!!" He shouted as the citizens got up from their seats "Let's go!"
RISE OF IZUZUNU
VOLUME 4, CHAPTER 33, PRISON
A FEW HOURS LATER AFTER THE PARTY
"Oh... god" Misha falls onto a bed at a hotel they built.
"I guess today was a success," He said as he closed his eyes on the bed.
Mark and Angie left the wedding at Mark's house and lay in bed. "Today was fun," Mark says.
Phoenix and Quin are running around killing brutes together "You saw how drunk everyone was??" Phoenix laughed out. "Yeah," Quin smiled.
Lilly fell asleep leaning on the pillar at the wedding palace. A few people fell asleep there too. I guess they were too drunk to get home.
Nugget and 07 were sitting on the chairs at the wedding palace. "Everyone's wasted here," 07 says. "Bro, you too," Nugget replied.
Edison slept next to them and began snoring. George and Mikey stayed home and didn't come to the wedding because they were busy with stuff.
Meanwhile, Xuanyu is at his house thinking about why Jun wants to do that. Why does Jun want to… go there?
"Jun... what is it that you want?" He says.
THE NEXT DAY
"Ughh!!" Lilly yelled as she puked on the floor "I swear… I only said one drink" she continued. "Looks like I slept out here" She looks around with her head hurting.
She finds that some people slept out here too. Nugget, 07, and Edison. "Well," She says.
A few hours after everyone wakes up and heads home, Xuanyu calls them all to a meeting at his house. "Where's Jun?" Mark asks.
"That's what we're going to talk about" Xuanyu explains "He went to Prison"
"What!!? Didn't he build that prison all by himself!? Why did he imprison himself!?" Mark shouted.
"It's because... these three citizens wanted him to... he believes all of this was his fault... so he's going to stay there. He said for a whole month" Xuanyu said. Edison grabs Xuanyu's shoulders "Please, free him... He doesn't deserve this"
"I can't... He doesn't want to be free.. and so do all of the citizens of Izuzunu... he felt guilty for everyone's death at the war" Xuanyu explained. "The war again" Edison looked down and dropped his hands off Xuanyu's shoulders.
"It's all about the stupid fucking war! We gotta get it straight to his head!" Edison shouted. "I don't think he'll ever get to us again," Mark says "I tried to talk to him the other day about it too... He's just too... he's just- nevermind"
"What exactly happened?" Lilly asked. "Well... it happened yesterday while you guys were at the wedding palace," Xuanyu explained.
YESTERDAY, VALVINA PRISON
"Finally!! We're done with the prison!!" Xuanyu exclaimed, "We can finally put criminals in jail without having to fight in an all-out war!"
"Xuanyu" Jun said in the distance "I need to talk to you"
He walks up to Jun "Yeah? What is it?"
"Put me in prison," Jun said. He looks up at the clouds. "What? What are you talking about? You must be joking" Xuanyu laughs it off. "I have to go to jail," Jun says.
"Why?? What did you do wrong?" Xuanyu asked. "The citizens! The burning buildings! Irene! Max! They all died because of me" Jun shouted.
"It's not your fault!" Xuanyu shouted back "It's Moises's team's fault!!"
"And guess who was on Moises's team... Me'' Jun falls to the ground.
"No... I don't want to go to prison... I just want to change how the citizens look at me. Have you seen what they've done to my house!? DO YOU KNOW HOW IT FEELS!!?" Jun shouted louder in a painful tone as his eyes began spewing out tears.
Xuanyu was quiet and looked at the ground. "I'm sorry... President... I shouldn't have yelled" Jun apologizes.
Xuanyu kneels "Jun... we can fix this... I swear... I'm still not putting you in prison though" Xuanyu gets back up and walks off the prison's rooftop.
"Xuanyu!" Jun shouted "Please" Jun walked into the prison's first floor.
Then he walks to the second in the room and takes off his armor and weapons "Throw them away... I don't deserve them" Jun said. "Jun! No! I'm not gonna do this!" Xuanyu shouted.
"Do it!" A random voice was heard as Xuanyu quickly turned around.
It's a family... with one child. "What?" Xuanyu was confused. The mom and dad yelled louder "Put him in jail! Did you not hear what he said!? Everything was his fault!! He doesn't deserve our respect!"
"I can't" Xuanyu tried walking away as the child began to speak "My sister..."
Xuanyu quickly stops and listens to what the kid is going to say. "My sister died in the war you guys fought in... and while she was dying, she told me she saw... Jun... standing there holding a spellbinded blade... she said... Jun did it," the boy explained.
"Put that monster in jail!!" The boy points at Jun.
Xuanyu and Jun were silent. Jun's entire body started shaking and his eyes widened "What?"
"Jun... did you kill his sister?" Xuanyu asked, walking closer to Jun. "No," He says.
Xuanyu, relieved to hear Jun's answer "Yes, you wouldn't kill another-" The boy interrupted "Put him to jail!! I never want to see this murderer's face ever again!!" The boy stormed out of the prison halls. The mom and dad chase after the child.
"I'm going" Jun opens the doors to the hallway to the prison cells "No! Jun!"
"Don't try to stop me!" Jun shouted. He walks to the prison cell as he opens the doors "Give me water and food every day in the morning and evening" Jun closes the doors and gets trapped in the prison.
"One month... I'll stay here for one month," Jun said "Now go... leave... go to the wedding, I'm sure they're still doing it," Jun said.
Xuanyu was quiet and also frustrated about this situation. He gets too frustrated and just walks away "You had this coming Jun, just telling you," He says as he closes the doors.
Jun sat at the corner next to the bed looking down "I guess... I really did have this coming"
"Fuck!" Xuanyu screamed out as he punched the walls "Why did I say that to him…" he held his head as he leaned against the wall.
Jun began getting flashbacks of back at the swamps of him trying to kill Moises.
THE FLASHBACK
"Wait!" Jun shouted "I need... to do something"
Moises walks back to Jun as Jun's hair covers his eyes. "What's wrong?" Moises asks. Jun tightly wraps his hands around his sword. He tightens it.
"I-" Jun tries speaking. He's about to kill Moises.
"Listen, if you want me to carry you, I'll do it" Moises chuckles and puts his sword back in the case.
"No... that's not it" Jun stood there looking creepy. "Jun, what's wrong?" Moises asks. "I'm sorry... that this has to go out this way" Jun finally lifts his head and looks at Moises.
"I have to..." Jun says in his head.
"I have to kill you!!!" Jun stabs Moises in the throat as he falls to the ground trying to breathe for air. Jun kept stabbing and stabbing and stabbing.
"You did this to yourself! Why didn't you stop from the beginning!!" Jun shouted at Moises with his shaky voice as he began sobbing and screaming.
He shouted louder and louder "You could've been... the president... a leader.... but you chose... to die!!!"
Jun continued to stab him as the other members ran toward Jun, seeing him slaughtering Moises on the floor. They all stopped and grabbed Jun "You can stop now..." Edison says as Jun cries and hugs everyone there.
Jun quickly snaps out of it. He's back in reality.
"That's how I wanted it to go" Jun talks to himself "But I... couldn't do it..."
