Five years after the Tower; the portals were still open, the smaller tower still there, but there had been time to heal. Time for the worst of the nightmares to fade, time for things to return to something like normal.
Time enough to finish high school, finish college, and make it to today. The preparations had taken weeks; there were photographs to take, invitations to drop off across multiple worlds, and a thousand other little things to do.
That all led up to now - five years, and now it was the biggest day of Yukiko and Ryoji's lives. The day of their wedding, the first day of the rest of their lives.
Yukiko smiles into a hand mirror, making a few last adjustments to her white kimono.
Then it was time; the car pulled up to Tatsuhime Shrine, and she carefully stepped out, then walked up the stairs.
