"Hey do you think, Batman could survive the apocalypse?" Ask a beautiful woman, who was gazing unto the sunset

Alex turned to her and relish on her beauty, she was like the reincarnation of Helen of troy herself and has this beautiful green eyes that reflect the sea, a long braided blond hair like that of brunhilde in the comics and a fiery body honed by battles as well as a personality befitting of a tomboy

He can't help but chuckle and replied "Of course! His the goddamn Batman for fuck sake 'TONK!' Hey!"

"Language!" She complained after hitting him with a sword sheath

"Yeah! Yeah! but you know if superheroes did exist, I'd bet my ass they'd beat the douche that did this to our world to the inch of his life!" Alex said as She replied with a laugh "of course! Even with just Thor, he'll get a field day with Thor's Hammer smashing on his face!"

"Yeah! I would pay to see that! " Alex said as silence ensued the area before he broke the ice and started talking "Diana do you remember what I said yesterday?"

She widened her eye but then turn and gaze at the sunset, she replied while being quite nervous because she wasn't sure if all of the things he said back then were true, they didn't really talk about it again after the whole fiasco yesterday "Y-yeah...Alex..It's okay...I understand if that was just a spur in the moment I-'TONK!' hey!? What was that for!?"

"Are you High!? What do you mean 'spur in the moment', I was completely serious yesterday and the reason I wasn't able to talk to you after the whole fiasco thing was because I was looking for this all night!" said Alex as he brought forth a small box

Diana gasp in surprise and immediately stand up as she tried to form words from her mouth "w-what..A-alex..."

Alex smiled and got to his knees, opening the box and revealing a black diamond ring inside " Diana...I-I know, I'm being fast with our relationship right now, like yesterday fast but what I realize yesterday made me think that for a decade you have stood by me even after I was cast out of Astadel, you believe in me even if others didn't, Yesterday I realize that I don't want to lose you and I can't live without you, I know now that the one who truly cared for me and love me was beside me in this entire time, so.....Vice commander Diana Athes will you marry me?" Said in a hopeful tone

Tears of joy flows down on Diana's cheek as she couldn't help but cry in joy, She said "Yes! Finally You Idiot! I've been waiting for this for the last decade! Didn't you know how hard it is to see you with that filthy bitch! Huh!? God I'm really glad Alex!!" She hug him very tightly and then wore the ring "Fuck Dating we've been together for the past decade so dating first will just be a redundant!" She added

Alex grin and said "since the king has the authority to wed a member of the royal family and technically I'm supposed to be the king of Astadel, I declared us husband and wife! Haha!"

"Ha! Great! since the plague, I've stop believing in religion so damn the tradition! You won't be getting rid of me anytime soon Mr. Achilles" said Diana who wore the same grin as Alex

Alex's stupid grin got wider and said "well! Honeymoon it is then!" He scoop Diana in a princess carry as they both giggled and move to the cabin

They both shouted together "BEST DAY EVER!!"

********

The alarm ringed as Alex woke up from his dream, he stared at the ceiling as a lone tear fell down his cheek, he muttered

"Happy Anniversary my love...."

Alex wipe the tear of his cheek and move towards the bathroom, he splash his face with cold water to clear away his sleepiness

He look at his face in the mirror and sighed, he was so young looking but the eyes of that of an old man

He got out of the bathroom and got change, he was going prepare breakfast for him and Rogue, when at the kitchen he opened the lights as Rogue who was supposed to be sleep at this time jump out from her hiding spot along with Athena who materialize at his side shouted

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX/FATHER!!!"

he doesn't get surprise easily but because he's still groggy, he didn't expect it at all

"Sorry Alex if I couldn't give you a present, I don't really have that much money on me and at the same time I can't bake a cake without turning it to poison so I cook a breakfast for you instead! (Athena: I also helped creating the coffee!)" Rogue said in glee and with a follow up from Athena, which prompted Alex to smile genuinely for the first time since arriving here and muttered a "Thank you.."

Another tear fell down from his cheek, not of sorrow but of happiness
