Everything was perfect, or at least as perfect as it needed to be. Loki was waiting in a flower field standing next to Steve, "It's going to be fine, Loki. Don't worry so much."

"Speak for yourself. I'm terrified!" Loki said scaredly, though all of those feelings dissipated when he saw Percy. The people sitting in the seats in front of Loki stood up and turned to look at Percy.

Percy walked towards Loki, dress flowing behind her. She looked around to see all the smiling faces, the Avengers, her old shield team, Magnus and Alex, Estelle, Artemis, Hecate, Thanatos who was now free from prison. She was being walked down the aisle by Anthony, or Tony and his freshly blonde dyed hair.

Trading one love... one life... for the next.

Percy gave her bouquet to her maid of honor, Thalia, and turned to hold Loki's hands as Steve started his officiant speech.

"Family, friends, allies. We are here today to celebrate to amazing and kind people."

Steve stepped back so they could give their vows. "Persephone Jackson. Percy. My Starfish. I love you with all my heart, all my being. Long ago, before I was controlled, before you were betrayed. The Olympians called for a meeting between the Pantheons to sign a treaty. Thor was off doing Odin knows what so I was chosen to go and represent the Norse. And as we were at the ceremony, talking and having drinks, I heard something that made me feel like I was shot by Love's arrow. I heard a giggle from a certain black haired, green eyed, Greek Demigod. And I fell for you. Because somehow, even though your arms were covered in scars and your eyes shone with a righteous fury. You sounded like a normal girl, free of worry, free from war, free from the rules. I love you Starfish. And I will stay by your side forever."

Percy then spoke, "Loki... I never knew when you fell for me or why. But, I know that we fell for each other at the same time. At that meeting I saw you sitting with Magnus and you had the smallest smile on your face. It was so small, yet so powerful, and it showed how you always held yourself with power and yet you were actually just a normal person. I saw that you were just like me. I didn't want to go to that meeting and now I'm really glad that I did!" Percy, with a big smile.

Steve gave them both the others' ring, "Loki, repeat after me, with this ring."

"With this ring," Loki said, placing the ring on Percy's finger.

"I the wed."

"I the wed."

Percy did the same thing and put Loki's ring on his finger. "Do you Persephone Jackson take this man to be your husband?"

"I do."

"And do you Loki Laufeyson take this woman to be your wife?"

"I do."

"Then, with the power vested in me by the state of New York I now pronounce you husband and wife."

The two immortals kissed, Percy put everything into this kiss, every emotion from the last four years of her life into this kiss. She was finally happy.

They separated and the menagerie of people in front of them clapped and cheered in happiness. Gods, Goddesses, demigods, agents, Avengers, Einherji, Magicians, and of course, two twins who were so happy to finally see their mother happy.

Two wrongs have finally made a right.
