10. Nice Invitation

It has been a few days but he's nowhere near close to creating the Dimension Hopper. Garrick and his AI already computed a 100% success rate, the designing of this gadget is still far from complete. "My goodness, older me. How the hell were you able to design the schematics?!" He asked himself. 

But it was expected and he needed a break. He went to watch the recording of the past news and bits of social media posts and it looks like humanity continues to progress further and further both in technology and their destruction. What an offsetting balance. 

Suddenly, a message popped up in his notification screen. Checking into it, the message was in an alien dialect but it was translated immediately by the AI which reads: "The Equestrians humbly invites you to a major feast for it is a celebration before the wedding of Francis and Queen Sellen. It is mandatory for you to join us." 

"Well I haven't seen those two for a while. I guess this would be a great recess for me after not completing the gadget." He said as his dog sat down and looked at him. 

He undressed himself and wore the best suit for a wedding. "What do you think, boy?" He asked his dog as he looked at the mirror. His pet dog barked twice, wagging its tail again.

Garrick also fixed a suit that works with dogs and he also looks distinguished. "Let's go to a space wedding." He said as they left the house and entered his space car. The engines revved and the car flew as it zoomed away into the sky. 

Arriving at the Ophiuchus Quasar, it was an intense bright galaxy with an active black hole giving off light brighter than an exploding star. Arriving at the Helkor System on planet orbiting a massive star. 

Hundreds of ships are also coming to this planet as well. The reception after landing on the planet was really nice. Different aliens arrived with different clothing that still looked fashionable. An Equestrian, an alien race with unicorn horns and slightly scaly body approached Garrick. 

"My goodness! Francis, it's been a while!" The two shook hands firmly and gave each other a pat on the back. 

"What the hell, Garrick! Haven't changed your appearance since we met 3 years ago, hahaha!" Garrick's dog arrived and approached Francis with a warm dog greeting. 

"Hey, you Equestrians have faster aging than us humans. Of course I look the same, and I can't wait for you two to become a loving couple." He said as the they walked inside the hotel. 

For a hotel, this was a 5-star guarantee in his eyes. The organization, the perfect mixture of colors and the warm feeling of the hotel staff is unlike any hotel on Earth. "Hello, receptionist. This man here is our important guest. Please accompany him to the wedding venue." He said. 

The receptionist nodded and escorted Garrick and his dog to the venue. It was a garden, a wide one to be exact. There were many chairs but there is only one chair that stood at the very front facing the podium with two altars on each side. 

He nervously laughed at the fact that he was gonna sit at the front. "Damn you Francis!" He walked to the front of the reception venue and sat at the front while different alien races come by to sit. 

Suddenly a few Equestrians approached Garrick. "Ahh you must be Garrick Valerie. We're Francis's friends." She said as they shook hands. 

2 hours has passed to which the wedding celebration started. A few Equestrians approached the center of the lane and revealed their guns as their pointed it to the sky. They synchronously fired 2 shots in the air and left the scene before the future husband and wife arrived. 

Queen Sellen was extravagant to look at. Wearing a handcrafted red and pink dress with a pink veil to cover her face as Francis was wearing a bluish gray tuxedo with white pants. 

The wedding ceremony has started as the two began to exchange vows which was not too different with Earth marriage but with more added style in their introduction. He also noticed that some of the Equestrians were wearing military clothing but has white color. 

With the exchange of vows complete, the two removed their clothes and kissed each other and performed a mating exchange which was marriage sex. The others were excited while Garrick maintained his cool as he's already seen and experienced their customs before. 

After 30 minutes of passionate and rough sex, rings made of pure diamond were given to one another and thus they were both declared husband and wife. The Equestrians fired their guns in the air as celebration while the crowd cheered.
