Ribbons of power encircle our hands as we speak the vows, creating a rainbow of energy encompassing our hands. I fight the urge to look at the others to see if they see it too. As the last words are spoken, the energy seems to flare before melding into our joined hands. The energy flows through me, lighting me on fire from the inside, before settling like a warm hum in my chest.
I smile, content in the knowledge that no matter what, no one can separate us. The power of our bond will always bring us back together.
