It had been 12 weeks (or 3 months) since Ashton had proposed to Arceus and things were going well. The whole kingdom was happy when they all heard the news of the engagement, it did not bother them that their future Queen was going to be a Pokemon, it had happened once before and that went very well.

The whole kingdom wanted the wedding done immediately, however the couple wanted to wait a short time before they got married, they wanted to experience being engaged before they tied the knot. The people accepted this at the time knowing that Ashton still had a couple more months before he would have to marry, however they all agreed that it should be done before the tournament took place, which the royal family and advisors agreed to.

It was a week before the people were due to arrive that the wedding took place. A large stage had been placed in the centre of the town, this way all of the people were able to see the ceremony take place, there were flowers all over the place and it being out in the open made them all feel connected to nature. This pleased Ashton and Arceus who in fact did not want to be married inside a building.

(With Ashton.)

"God, I love her to pieces but I am terrified." Ashton said with a nervous smile. His father, Max, Paul, Alain and Gary were all in the room with him.

"There is nothing to worry about son. Arceus loves you and you love her, there is nothing to fear." Aaron said, remembering how nervous he was on his own wedding.

"Its not just that, there is a chance that I am going to be meeting my mother in a week and I am nervous about meeting her." Ashton said, he was scared that his mother would not come or even worse that she wouldn't like who he had grown up to be.

"There is nothing to fear, your mother will love you beyond belief. You must remember, she thinks that you are dead and that I am also dead, she will be happy that we are both alive." Aaron said, Ashton smiled when he realised his father was right.

"Yeah, over a thousand years believing your husband and son to be dead, it must have been very hard for her." Ashton said, wincing when he thought of the pain his mother must have gone through.

"And she will be thrilled to know that both of them are alive to this day." Paul said, with a soft smile while Gary saw something else in Ashton's eyes.

"There is something else you are not telling us." Gary said, everyone looked to him and then turned to Ashton who nodded his head.

"All those who betrayed will be coming to this tournament, you said so yourself that I was going to have my revenge, I just don't want them to ruin everything I have gained from all this." Ashton said, he knew that he would not go back to them or his fake mother no matter what they say to him or do.

"And you will have all of us to stop that from happening." Alain said putting a hand on Ashton's shoulder, the others all doing the same showing that he had their support.

"Yeah Ash, this is meant to be a special day. Think of it this way, today you are marrying the girl/pokemon of your dreams and then next week you will be able to meet your mother and get revenge on those who betrayed you." Max said with an evil smile.

"I think I would like to wait for the revenge." Ashton said, confusing the others in the room.

"And why is that son?" Aaron asked, he thought his son would want to have revenge quickly.

"I want to show them how good I have gotten and all of the strong pokemon that I have, show them what they are missing and then when I reveal myself they will see just how strong I am." Ashton said, he had thought long and hard on this.

"Good plan Ash, now lets go its time for you to get married." Paul said, dragging Ashton out of the room to the town where the wedding was to take place.

(With Arceus.)

"What if he changes his mind?" Arceus asked as she was having her hair done. She was going to be married in her human form, she knew Ashton loved her in both her forms but she wanted to wear the make-up, the dress and everything else that came with being a bride.

Bonnie and a few of the maids were all in the room with her, the maids being there as there was only female in the group. Though Bonnie did know another would join them when Gary finally told his love interest his feelings.

"No he won't do that, he loves you dearly both sides of you." Bonnie said, she had known Ash for a while now and she had never seen him as happy as he was when with Arceus.

"I hope so." A short time later Arceus' make-up and hair was all done. Arceus' human form was the same height as Ashton unless she wore heels, she still had her bright crimson eyes but with a human body, she was not fat nor was she skinny, she had long legs and a curvy form as well as white hair with golden streaks falling to her waist. Ashton loved both this form as well as white and golden pokemon that she also was.

"Time for the dress!" One of the maids squealed moving over to the wardrobe and removing the dress from the protective covering.

Arceus' dress was stunning. It was a ball-gown, the whole bodice was covered in golden stones showing no white, there were small clusters of these golden stones going down the rest of the skirt however most of it showed the white of the dress, around the hem was a thin lining of red stones. Arceus loved this dress because even thought she was wearing it human form it showed her pokemon, she was white and gold in her first form which was clearly shown on the dress and the red stones around the rim showed her red eyes.

"Oh Arceus, you look so beautiful." Bonnie said, all of the maids nodding their heads.

And it was true, she made a gorgeous bride.

(Wedding.)

Before anyone could think it was time for the wedding. Ashton walked down the make-shift aisle with his best men and father, coming to a stop on the right side of the stage.

The wedding march started and all the townspeople stood as Arceus came down the aisle, Bonnie was walking her down. Ashton smiled at his bride when he saw her, Arceus was beautiful her hair and make-up was stunning on her, and the dress she was wearing showed Ashton how carefully she had picked it out.

When she reached where Ashton was she handed her bouquet to Bonnie before taking Ashton's hand and walking to the priest who was going to marry them.

Once the vows were given it was time to exchange the rings, while the engagement ring was elaborate the wedding bands were a simple silver in colour both of them preferring them to the golden rings.

As soon as they kissed Ashton glowed, it was so bright that the crowd had to cover their eyes. When their eyes opened they gasped, their crown prince was no longer in sight and in his place was a male Arceus. He was golden in colour with flecks of white and blue around his body, he had the same large plates that Arceus had though his were white in colour and his eyes were brown instead of red.

"Ashton?" Arceus asked shocked, she hadn't preformed the enchantment yet to make him into an Arceus, so she didn't know how this had happened.

"Yeah its me." Ashton said, though he didn't know he was speaking in their minds and not in his human form.

"Ashton, you are an Arceus." Arceus said, her human name was Melody and she was fond of it, but when this form her name was Arceus.

"Looks like your inheritance came a little late son." Aaron said with a smile when he saw Ashton blush.

Their was a large meal in the town and a large party that evening to celebrate the wedding. Arceus and Ashton spent the next week close to one another, as well as Ashton being taught how to use his new form.

It was exactly one week and the guests were at the entrance, someone from the town was sent to collect them.

The tournament had almost begun.
