Sins and Virtues Chapter One
Covered in darkness wearing a veil of evil the bride stands before her groom
and a vile host of wedding guests. The heat and hate that filled the air was so
thick that they all choked on it. Baffled and amazed that Lust the biggest
**** ever was about to be wed to Greed. Everyone watched with anticipation as
a union of sin was joined in unholy matrimony. The words that flowed from
the mouth of Pride the priest cut through the air like swords. "Disgustingly
wicked we have come together in the presences of demonic forces to witness
and behold the joining of this devil and **** in unholy matrimony. This band
and covenant of marriage was established by evil in darkness. Lust will you
have Greed to be your husband; to live together in the covenant of marriage?
Will you obey him, lay with him and fulfill his sexual desires as long as you
both shall live?" With the flames of hell burning in her eyes Lust answers "I
will". "Greed will you have Lust to be your wife; to live together in the
convenant of marriage? Will you supply and adorn her with riches
as long as you both shall live?" With a twinkle in his eyes that sparkles like
gold Greed answers "I will". "By the powers invested in evil the
bride and groom may kiss". As their lips
touched their wedding guests was as silent as a corpse. Turning her back to
the wedding guest Lust throws a bouquet of Poison Ivy and Venus flytraps
over her head. Stepping in front of Sloth, Envy snatches the bouquet out of
the air.
