Post by ABBA on May 5, 2008 16:47:19 GMT -5
Glancing around one last time, Abba straightened his suit and got ready to begin now that everything seemed in order. He had just opened his mouth and began to speak when whooooosh, off went Vancha... "Daaaaaaaaaamn" Was all he could say at the major ass chewing Vancha gave tweedle dum and tweedle dummer. Better known as Arri and Carma, it's your choice as to which one is which hehe. Man that was priceless though, one of those Kodak moments, he hoped someone had it all on film to watch again later. After giving the two a reality check, Vancha resumed his position beside Serafina. He waited a few moments to let the rustling and giggling amongst the crowd to settle down before clearing his throat again, beginning his opening remarks... Ladies, gentlemen, children of all ages, and also the living dead with long pointy teeth... we are gathered here not to mourn, but to rejoice the passing of one of our own. Yes my wonderful minions, I know how hard it is not to shed a tear for the recently deceased, our beloved Serafina Butail. But let us also rejoice for she is in a better place. Her death was a...
He paused and stopped midsentance and looked around at the crowd and back and Serafina and Vancha. Their looks confirmed his feelings that something just wasn't right, but what was it? Duh ya stupid idiot, Serafina wasn't dead, Vancha may be but not Serafina..this was a wedding, not a funeral...geeze man. Hoping no one caught his mistake, he started to speak again. "Ummmm, sorry about that folks. Just a little mix up on my part... I have a funeral to conduct shortly after this. So now, where were we? Oh yes, would everyone please rise for the singing of the National Anthem. Noooo wait, that's not right either.. DAMMIT! ! ! !" With a quick sigh of frustration, he tossed any and all of his notes to the ground. Dammit, he was ABBA so let's get it together man! "Staff, Professors, students, family and friends. We are all gathered here today to celebrate this wonderful event. For today, on this joyous occasion, we come together to join these two loving souls, Vancha Ayris and Serafina in holy matramony..." He paused briefly to let his words flow through the crowd. At least he finally got it right, hopefully no more mix ups hehe

Carma snickered as Abba's speeches devolved from a funeral to a NASCAR race to, finally, the wedding they were all here for. Geez, Abba, hitting the cash bar much?
Remembering what happened last time she opened her mouth though, Carma quickly stopped giggling with one fearful glance at Vancha... a few more seconds of that and she could have been launched into the lake.
But, now that the ceremony was underway, Carma buttoned up and gazed at Vancha and Serafina where they stood on the altar. Serafina looked absolutely ravishing in her gown. Carma admired her bravery not to wear the standard white for "innocence" that most brides did. Sheesh, what a load of baloney that was, "innocence." Serafina was a bold girl, wearing whatever made her happy. It reflected her personality beautifully.
And Vancha, didn't he look handsome? So different from the firstie that arrived at the school soooo many years ago. Carma started to get a little teary, watching two of her former students grow up into such beautiful adults... and getting married! Maybe to make more little students. Oh, man...
Carma sniffled, dabbing at the corner of her eye with her tissue. Nooo crying yet. If she started crying now she'd never make it through.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Carma whispered to Arri in a dreamy voice. She felt like a sap, but a happy sap, so it was okay. Carma gazed at the happy couple with a little smile on her face while Abba continued the ceremony. Already she could hear other sniffles in the crowd. It made her feel better to know she wasn't the only wishy-washy one at this wedding.

Vancha smiled hearing random comments about Arri and Carma. He beamed more when Abba attemptedto open the ceremony. The ironic thing was that before the end of the ceremony, Serafina WOULD be a vampire. So technically, yes, Abba was right. But still wasn't the best way of opening a wedding. He smiled and looked deep into Sera's eyes. He looked in her eyes and could see his whole future before him. And for once, it didn't scare him.

Emma couldn't help but overhear Arri and Carma's discussion. I thought they were getting along now? Oh well, you can never tell about people anymor Emma smiled as she remembered her memories with both Carma and Arri. She quietly sighed, and turned toward ABBA, waiting for the vows to officially begin.

[Ok, I should have posted before. Sorry] As soon as he had heard about the wedding, Emma couldn't have been happier for both Vancha and Serafina. Even though she didn't know either of them that well, she knew they were both amazing people and made each other happy so that was all that mattered. Having been stood talking to a few people, tackled Renn, Kiaro and several others of her old friends, she quickly took a seat as soon as she heard the ceremony was about to begin. It was true that she hadn't been to a wedding before and wasn't quite sure how things were supposed to go at a conventional one but this was even more of a mystery to her as it was far from ordinary. It was a wedding so who wouldn't want a few photos to remember it by? With that thought in mind, she had of course brought along a camera. Hearing Vancha go off on one at Carma and Arri, Emma couldn't help but laugh and quickly documented the moment very sneakily, intending to have a little fun and show anyone who hadn't been there two of the most powerful women in the world getting put in their place [ ] purely becasue she was nice like that and you've got to love her hehe As Abba began the ceremony at last, Emma smiled up at him and found it hard to suppress a laugh as he began on the wrong kind of speech twice. As he finally realized which ceremony he was supposed to be conducting, she sat in silence, waiting for the vows and whatever else to begin.

((sorry I am one of them, I didn't see mixup till now! love you Vancha!)) Josie who was in the back row watching the wedding saw Professor Ayris talk harshly at the two upfront. Josie strained her neck trying to see who it was up front, she wanted to giggle but if he got like that with them. She shuddered. Josie turned her attention to Abba in the center he started the wedding ceremony and she smiled. Wait did he just say.. our beloved dead bride?! how did he miss the fact she was standing infont of him. After the confusion Abba started again and Josie listened to the words it was just words to her. She never even had a thought about a wedding, or even been to one, but sofar it seemed this one would be very unique.

((Anything is Unique when ABBA is involved))
Malcolm suppressed a giggle when Arri and Carma was scolded. and found it harder to suppress it when ABBA got the ceremony confused. But then the ceremony was underway. Malcolm smiled at Vancha and Serafina, He was glad that one of his friends was finally tieing the knot. He wondered when his would be coming and who it would be with.

[[Haha yeah, sorry Vancha! I was one of them, too... It will never happen again, I promise! And I fixed it. ^^]]
Autumn got excited as everone stood up. She started thinking about how she wanted her wedding... a normal wedding, just with a little more color. She watched Vancha stand there, waiting for his blushing bride. You found yourself a good lady, Professor. She thought to herself. She was excited for her professor, and for this wonderful lady who she's seen around quite often.

As Abba began to speak the smile slowly faded from Serafina's lips, a frown crossed her face as the words slowly began to make sense was she hearing correctly? Hang on that wasn't right, Serafina was pretty sure she wasn't dead, not yet at least. However it did remind her of what was to come later in the ceremony, oh the irony of these things.
With just one more false start Abba seemed to have gotten his mind and his speech back on track. Serafina smiled and looked to Vancha again as she heard the correct words being spoken, that was more like it.

Jenny sat silent in her seat and looked at Vancha. He looked handsome in his suit. Serafina also looked beautiful. She laughed softly hearing Abba start a funeral service. After another mistake he finally go it right. She hoped that one day she would have a wedding with all her friends from hogwarts there. Then again, she didn't even have a boyfriend... She turned her attention back to Vancha and Serafina.

Amber sat down at Vancha's side and waited for the wedding to like..start...finally Sera appeared walking down the eisle. She looked gorgeous xD. Then, Abba did his little talking thing...of course...mistaking it as a funeral...hang on...Searfina was alive! Not dead. Amber snorted outloud and tried to hold back a laugh...hoping no one had heard. Amber had her hand over her mouth, 'pull yourself togethor girl,' she thought in her head and after thirty seconds she stopped giggling and went back to being serious again and listened/watched the wedding.

Vancha rolled his eyes and almost growled. Why didn't people understand what happened during a wedding. He looked towards Angelina and trying as hard as he could no to snarl, said. "Angelina...The Wedding has started. Your actually interupting the ceremony speaking to Serafina. Please sit..." He pleaded the last to words. He wanted to marry Sera and show the commitment and love towards her that she deserved and it was hard to with all these interuptions. **CoughArriCarmaandAngelinaCough**

Serafina glanced around as she heard another voice behind her where she lay eyes on someone she hadn't seen in aaaagggeees. She smiled it was nice to see her again but kinda the inapropriate moment to try and strike up a conversation.
She could see Vancha getting annoyed with all of the interuptions which was fair enough but Sera wasn't going to let it bother her. They were both there and weren't going anywhere until they were married. She gripped his hand a smiled, "We'll get there eventually." She said softly, her tone of voice almost amused. Save for something awful like Vancha running away nothing would spoil their perfect day.

Sophia continued to watch the ceremony in silence, looking over at Ath and Keeley every so often. She wasn't too sure she was comfortable sitting with them. For some reason, Keeley was making her nervous. She scrunched up her nose and laughed a little at some girl she'd never met before walking straight up to Serafina and talking to her, in the middle of the ceremony.
Wow, some people just didn't know.
