I am so sorry that it took so long to get this out!


Acxa and Pidge walked into the mouth of the Black Lion, where Matt was waiting. The older Holt walked over to Acxa and carefully places a veil onto her head. Once the veil was secure Pidge raced over to open the mouth to the Black Lion, while Matt held his arm out to Acxa.

"You don't have to do this." The halfbreed whispered as she placed her hand on his forearm.

"You're right, but I want to. Whether you like it or not, you became my honorary little sister during our time with the Coalition. I'm not letting you walk down aisle alone.

"Thank you." Acxa said with a smile, receiving a smile in return.

Just as Matt was about to say something a lone voice began to sing, signaling the start of the ceremony.

Acxa's smile grew bigger as she felt the mouth open and lower, and she spotted her soon to be husband.


Keith took a deep breath as the Black Lion's mouth opened. The first person he saw was Pidge as she stepped out of the mouth, the sole bridesmaid.

Then his breath caught in his throat.

There she was. He could see her smile through her veil. Too him, it was as if everyone else had vanished, and she was the only person there.

As Acxa drew closer any bit of doubt that Keith had in his mind was replaced by love, and joy. His own smile grew, as Acxa let go of Matt's hand and walked towards Keith, who met her halfway and took her hand.

Together, they turned to face Allura. While she had no part in the actual ceremony, as the daughter of creator of Voltron, and the Blue Paladin, she would be introducing the couple and would say a few words.

"Family and friends, today we are all here to witness the union between this man and this woman." Allura smiled at them, and then looked back out at the guests. "This wedding will be a little different than what most of you are used too But before we start the ceremony I must ask, does anyone here have a reason as to why this man and this woman shouldn't be married?"

Allura waited for a minute before continuing, "Good, in which case let us begin. Keith and Acxa, you two met years ago in a Weblum, of all places. Ever since, regardless of being on opposite sides of the war for the longest time, you have both watched out for each other. You have cared for each other, worried about each other, cried for each other, and you love each other. Today the two of you will united as one and spend the rest of your lives together. To start us off, Captain Takashi Shirogane will do a reading, followed by a few words."

Allura stepped back and Shiro took her place. In his hands was a worn leather book, one that made Keith smile for what it was, and for who it had originally belonged too.

The former Black Paladin cleared his throat, "This was Keith's father's Bible. As I was looking through it the other day, I found a passage that describes love. I see them live it, and I hope that they will never forget it." Shiro took a deep breath as he opened the Bible. "Love suffers long and is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all thing, endures all things. Love never fails. First Corinthians 13: 4-8."

Shiro smiled at them both, "Keith, Acxa, being married will require patients and kindness. Do not let pride, jealousy, lies or anger get in the way of your love for one another. Be willing to help one another, and too see things through the other's eyes. Always be truthful to one another, and always love each other. But most importantly remember that love is not just a feeling, it's also a choice. A choice to think of how the other feels. A choice to take care of one another and a choice to be there for each other through the good times and bad times. It's a choice that I know you two will make every day." Shiro paused for a moment, seemingly to collect himself, before saying "It is now time for the vows. Keith and Acxa have written their own vows, and Keith you may start."

The Black Paladin swallowed a lump in his throat as he looked at his soon-to-be wife. "Acxa, ever since we first met I have found myself caring about you. Throughout the war, I would worry about you and pray that you were safe, and not long after we were finally together I was fully in love with you. Acxa, I promise to be a faithful husband. I promise that I will cherish you, respect you, support you, take care of you, and comfort you. When the hard times strike, I promise that we will face them together, and when the good times shine I promise to smile and laugh with you. I will love you, hold you, and never leave you. Forever my heart will only belong to you."


Acxa felt tears stream down her face as Keith spoke, and once he finished, with tears of his own, she took a deep breath, hoping to steady her voice before saying her vows. "Keith, when we first met in the Weblum, I knew that there was something different about you. You acted out of kindness and compassion, unlike many in the war. As time passed I found myself worrying about you, not wanting you to get hurt. When we were apart, I would pray that you were okay. By the time we were finally together, I was in love with you, and every day since my love has deepened. I promise to be a faithful wife. I promise to cherish you, respect your decisions, support you, and take care of you. I promise to comfort you. When the hard times strike, I will gladly walk by side, and when the good times come I will be joyous with you. I will love you, hold you, and never leave you. Forever, my heart will only belong to you."

Acxa was so focused on Keith that it wasn't till Kolivan spoke that she realized it was time for the next part of the ceremony.

"It is time for the Blade ceremony." Kolivan nodded his head to Pidge and then to Lance. The maid of honor and the best man made their way forward, each holding what seemed to a small dagger, but the even stranger thing was that neither of them were physically touching the dagger, both were carrying them with hooks.

Acxa and Keith both took their dagger, and Kolivan started to explain the ceremony. "Galran traditions haven't always been acknowledge these past 10,000 years unless they were war-related, but there was one that the Blade of Marmora wouldn't let die out, and that was blade-bonding. Both of these blades have... special properties. Much like a Blade of Marmora sword, the blades are connected to the owner's life-force, only these are mate-blades. Both blades will be connected to both the husband and wife, but not only that, if they are away from one of the owners for more than a year, they no longer activate into a sword and are only a small dagger."

Kolivan instructed Keith and Acxa on how to hold the blades so that two hands could fit on each hilt, then they had to go through a five minute waiting period, in which Kolivan sang an old Galran song that only the other Blade of Marmora members (excluding Keith) understood. Once the song ended both of the daggers transformed into two long swords.

"You two will fight many battles together." Kolivan said softly, "Always protect each other."


Keith glanced down at the two blades he and Acxa held, a nod from Kolivan prodded him to take both blade's and set them gently on a table the had, conveniently, been stationed next to the Blade of Marmora leader. Kolivan nodded once more, out of respect, before stepping away. The Dalterion, L'askya took his place, a small pot, full of dirt, in her hands. "In this pot is a glyiscy seed. This certain seed will only sprout when two people who dearly love each other touch the dirt. It may seem odd too some, but anyone who's been to the Dalterion Belt knows that we are a bit...odd." L'askya laughed, and held out the pot. The soon-to-be newlyweds both exchanged glances before reaching out and touching the dirt.

The moment both of their hands came into contact with the dirt, the pot started to shake and a few tiny vines shot up. The vines continued to grow in an... odd way to say the least. They playfully wound around the couples fingers, before unwinding and winding up together. When the vines reached the one-foot mark, a bud started to grow, eventually blossoming into a pure white flower. Judging by L'askya's face, this was a good sign.

The Dalterion picked up the pot and handed it to Lance, before moving away from the platform, meaning that it was time for Shiro to finish the ceremony.

The Atlas Captain just stood blinking for a second, before shaking his head and heading over to Keith and Acxa.

"Keith and Acxa, through the blade ceremony, and the... plant ceremony... thing... you have pledged your lives to each other. Together you two will embark on a journey through life. One I'm sure will be full of joy and love." He smiled, making them wait a few more moment's before stating, "I now pronounce you husband and wife. Keith, you may kiss your bride."

Keith turned to Acxa, and lifted the veil from her face. Everyone in the crowd caught their breath as he wiped a couple of stray tears off her face, and kissed her sweetly. That broke the spell and sent them cheering.

The cheers continued as the couple pulled apart and grew even louder as Shiro shouted, "I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Keith Kogane!"

As the newlyweds made their way to the Black Lion, Keith decided that never in his life had he been as happy as he was right then, with his wife walking beside him.


The sun was setting as four Paladins, one captain, two Galra and many humans waved at a Lion flying off into space. Keith and Acxa would get to have a week to themselves before they needed to meet the other's at Olkarion. Krolia and Kolivan would be heading there with Pidge and Lance, who got to have the fun job of pet sitting Kosmo.

Lance felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder and turned to see his brother, Marco. "How did they do that during the ceremony?" The older man asked.

"Do what?"

"T-the dagger's turning into blades, and the plant thing."

"Oh," Lance nodded his head. "Very simple. Space magic."

Pidge chuckled from her spot on the other side of Lance. "Babe, since when did Space magic happen on Earth?"

Lance opened his mouth, but caught her point. While all that weird stuff was normal everywhere else in the universe, it wasn't normal for Earth. The Red Paladin looked thoughtful for a moment, before nodding his head.

"Magic. We'll go with magic."
