Sins, Virtues, and Everything Inbetween Chapter Three

When Faith and Love landed at the chapel Wisdom was waiting for them.  "Love and Faith I've been waiting patiently for the two of you.  I've spoken with Loyalty on my communicator.  He and Knowledge will be hear shortly and then you can pledge yourselves to each other" said Wisdom.  Just as the three were speaking Grace walked out of the chapel.  "Hello Love and Faith.  It's about time the two of you showed up" said Grace.  "It's good to have a star for a friend who's gifted in all the arts" said Love.  Throwing her arms around Grace, Love gave her a big squeeze. "Let's get you in your wedding dress.  If you'll follow me to your dressing room.  We can get started" said Grace.  As Love and Faith followed behind Grace, Loyalty and Knowledge landed at the chapel.  Receiving Loyalty with a strong handshake Wisdom says "Your wife to be is already changing into her wedding dress.  May I say she's as beautiful as the morning dew.  Let's get you wed to Love but first      
we have to get you changed."  After a few seconds of changing Loyalty, Wisdom, and Knowledge stood at the altar waiting on Love.  "Wow Love you look absolutely beautiful" said Faith standing to the right of Love.   "Yeah Faith is right.  You are stunning.  Now Love remember don't have the doors opened leading to the altar until I start singing" said Grace standing to the left of Love.   "I know Grace.  C'mon let's go" said Love as she stood in front of the mirror.   Taking her place at the altar with Loyalty, Knowledge, and Wisdom Grace began singing.  Shrouded in light Love enters the room.  She times her entrance just right.  The light Love emits filled the entire chapel.  Holding a bouquet of pink Lilies and wearing a crown of Olive leaves.  Love stands before Loyalty and a chapel full of wedding guests.  The words that walked out of the mouth of Wisdom lingered in the air like leaves floating on the winds of serenity.  "Devoutly righteous we come in the presences of the Almighty to join in holy matrimony a pairing to be respected by all.  Love will you have Loyalty to be your husband?  Will you nurture him, care for him, and watch over him as long as you both shall live?"  With eyes full of joy Love answers "I will."  "Loyalty will you have Love to be your wife?  Will you stand by her, protect her, and provide for her as long as you both shall live?"  With eyes full of courage Loyalty answers "I will."  "By all things holy the bride and groom may kiss."  As Love and Loyalty came together their wedding guests erupted with praise.  Turning her back to her wedding guests.  Love throws her bouquet of pink Lilies over her head.  With out thinking Faith leaps into the air.  Catching the bouquet before it landed in the hands of Mercy.  Looking over at Truth, Faith winks her eye.  Turning around to see who caught the bouquet.  Love was shocked to see Faith holding the bouquet of pink Lilies.  "Wow you sillies let Faith catch the bouquet" said Love.  With a pout on her face Mercy says "we didn't know she could leap like that."  "Hey you got to do what you got to do" argued Faith.  "Let's wrap this up so me and my wife can start our new life" said Loyalty.   "File this in your memory.  Our new life started the day you asked me to marry you" said Love.   As Love and Loyalty gazed into each other eyes.  Wisdom tells Understanding to grab the cage with the two doves.
