I know , I know I'm terrible. I said that after I put my fairy tail fic on hold I would return to working on my Star Wars or Moana fics but here I am posting a new cross over fic. But I found a few great cross over and regular fic in the NBC , NBC/Corpse bride and Corpse bride areas and I asked moviefan-92 author of the undead groom for a sequel in the future and I got a maybe , not bad since it's not a no, and my brain was already imagining possibilities of how parts of the possible sequel would go and it wound up becoming story stew and after I managed to get around 3/4ths of the way through the main story I thought ' what heck I may as well edit it and put it up to see how many people like it.' So here we are.

The beginning likely won't be as good as the later on chapters but I guess that's due to the fact I wasn't sure how to start this story and came up with stuff that had less borrowed stuff from other authors/stories in the later chapters.

And yes , I promise to get back to my Star wars and Moana fics after this for real this. Now to start this story.

Victor Van Dort didn't get to have as happy or normal a life as many other people get the fortune to have. First his family lost his older brother Jack Van Dort , who was 5 years his elder, a Halloween prank gone wrong that ended in Jack sacrificing himself to save his younger brother.

And then there was that misunderstanding where he seemingly married the wrong bride , this one was a corpse! but in the end he managed to marry the right girl, his lovely alive bride ….. who turned out to not be his true love or soulmate or whatever you wish to call them. Victoria was a kindred spirit to him. They connected well enough to be friends but to actually fall in love? That was a dud.

After their first year married Victor was starting to long for his Emily back and was spending quite a bit of time at his brother's grave instead of at home like how her parents and sometimes his would remind him that was were he was suppose to be. He would visit his brother's grave at times in the past like before and then after his marriages along with plenty of times during the following 3 years leading up to the accident.

They were returning from a doctors visit that gave them the news that Victoria happened to be barren. They , he hadn't let their marriage deteriorate to this point without a fight, they both had tried. They had tried getting counseling, from friends they had made , Victor's parents, tried for a baby all 4 years and even in desperation they turned to Victoria's parents for advice , not that they were any help. Possibly due to fate determined to right a few things , right as they started talking to each other ; Victor apologizing for not being able to love Victoria like a husband should and Victoria lamenting the fact that their bloodlines would end and once more asking how her husband fell in love with a corpse their carriage lost a wheel and rolled down the hill they had been traveling on.

It had been a quick death , neither one had the chance to feel it when they died. Victor was soon left alone with only his wife's wedding ring after he saw her soul pass on to heaven and then soon found himself in the land of the dead to get fixed up and to find out what happened to his Emily.

this seems a good place to stop despite it being so short. next chapter will be Jack's

I would love to read some reviews
