Jack was trying to release himself from the strong grip of the henchmen of King Claws. But when he got to the dock, he was thrown into the water. He was treading water when the henchmen left. So Jack swam to shore and shook himself.
"Release me!," said Shapphire. "Just think of it. We can make evil plans together........we can order the henchmen.............we can even feast on fish!," said King Claws. "No! You're a bad cat!," said Shapphire. "I will be your king.," said King Claws. "Even if you give me sweet poems, bouquets of hydrangeas, diamond rings, and fish, I will never love you!," said Shapphire. "Then I will have to bribe the fishmonger into putting love potion in his fish!," said King Claws. "What was that?," said Shapphire. "Nothing!," said King Claws.
Jack walked to the jewelry store. "That ring would be perfect for Shapphire.," said Jack. So he took the ring and ran to Shapphire.
"You are my favorite cat. Everything from your bejeweled collar to the blue bow on your tail attracts me to you. Your sense of style fascinates me. You are the one for me.," said Jack. He gave Shapphire the ring. "I will marry you.," said Shapphire.
And so Shapphire walked down the isle in her white eyeshadow, white bow, white collar with a silver heart and light pink diamonds, and veil. The flowergirls (which were calico kittens) threw pink petals onto the white carpet. Jack was waiting for her in a light pink tuxedo. The best man was Kyle the silver cat. He was wearing a black tuxedo. The audience was all of Jack's other friends, which were Henry the orange cat who was wearing a white tuxedo and Don the brown cat who was wearing a bright red tuxedo. The preacher was a white cat Jack did not know. "We are gathered here today to see the union of two souls. They love each other through thick and thin and serve each other. If you have any objections to this marriage speak now or forever hold your peace. Jack, will you love Shapphire in sickness and in health?," said the preacher. "Yes.," said Jack. "And Shapphire, will you love Jack in sickness and in health?," said the preacher. "Yes.," said Shapphire. "And now I pronounce Jack and Shapphire man and wife. You may kiss the bride.," said the preacher.
