The setting is last night going into day.
"Night" was the last thing I said to Mear as I shut the door. Wow... What a day... The contest... the setup... Lux and Kat... MY EAR!!!.... The house... and... The visions.... I need a... a... Before I could finish my reminiscing thoughts, My strength waned and I collapsed to the floor, knocked out and sleeping.

I fluttered my eyes open. The sun shunned its light on the lids of my eyes. Surprisingly, I found myself lying on my bed. I remembered myself collapsing on the floor instead of the bed. The thought of people roaming in my room irritated me.
"Damn bozos", I yawned, annoyed. I stretched and headed for the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, took a bath, washed my hair, and fixed myself up for the day. Instead of straight, my hair was wavy. It was rather cute because it fits me but I made note to myself that I was going to straighten it out later on. I smelt omelets in the kitchen. My stomach growled for food.
"Mmm. I guess it's time to eat", I told my stomach, rubbing it.
I made my way to the kitchen. Lux and Estelle stood like 5 feet from each other in dead silence. They looked very suspicious but I was too hungry to bother with that.
"Morning", I greeted.
"Why, good morning Lupe. Had a good sleep", Estelle asked giving me a cheesy smile.
"Mmhmm."
"That's wonderful."
I smelt the air and made an "mmm" sound.
"Who made omelets", I asked.
"That would be me", Lux bragged. I gave him a glare and rolled my eyes.
"And that's hard to believe", I smart mouthed under my breath. I would've said it louder but I just didn't feel like arguing right now. I wasn't in the mood.
“Well, I’m going to get out of this skimpy little night gown now and take a bath hot bath” Estelle said walking over to the door. “See ya later” Realizing what she just said, she covered her mouth and ran out of the kitchen. She just went El. I raised an eyebrow at Lux, realizing he was the cause of it. He gave me a cheesy smile and rubbed his head. I half-shrugged and walked over to the fridge.
"Don't you want to taste my delicious omelets", He teased, waving an omelet in my face.
"Nahh. Not in the mood", I said bluntly, unaffected by Lux's intoxication omelet.
"C'mon Lu-Lu. You know you want it." He waved the omelet a little hard than before. My eye twitched from the pet name "lu-lu". I slapped the delicious smelling thing out of his hand. He gasped and gave me a nasty look. I rolled my eyes at him.
"I said I'm not in the mood", I said annoyed. I then turned my back on him to search what was in the fridge. I picked out eggs, peppers, pork, mushrooms, green onions, and soy sauce.
“So what are you in the mood for, Miss Picky”, he bickered. I walked over to the island and spread the ingredients out.
“Ramen”, I replied, looking over to eyes.
“Can you even cook ramen? Can you even cook period”, he joked, laughing to himself.
“Pssh, can I”, I said sarcastically. “Watch me.”
Before he could even respond to that, I was already done with the delicious smelling, well done, yummy Lupe special ramen.
“Your not the only good cook around here”, I smirked, flicking my hair at him.
“Well, my my”, He smiled and shrugged, then left the kitchen. I shrugged myself and began to chow down on my ramen.
“Delicious”, I stopped to admire my great creation and started to eat again.
20 minutes later, I finished my masterpiece. I was full but now I was bored. I left the kitchen (in a mess xD) in need of adventure. I walked the corridors of the household, in search of something to do. I then came across the North Wing ball room. My eyes widen in amazement. I never knew Mear made a ball room in the mansion. It was simply gorgeous. The chandeliers were made out of real gold with sterling silver trim, as well as the doors. The floor was white marble. Only candles lit the room so bright. There were tables and music and… it was like I was in Paris or something. I slowly walked to the middle of the of the ball room, admiring its beauty. I closed my eyes and swayed to the music. The music was soothing. It made me smile. It made me reminisce something…
~ Flash Back ~
Faye, Estelle, and I were walking around in the main town area with cloth around our head, hiding the pokemon parts. Estelle was an Eevee Gijinka, Faye was Snorunt Gijinka, and I was a Bunaery Gijinka. We were trying to find food that we could steal, until we walked passed a window with TVs.
“Oooh! You guys, Look!” Estelle pointed out to the TVs. They all had ladies and men with fancy dancy clothes on dancing together.
“What is it Estelle?” Faye asked. Back then we called her Snow. They called me Bunaye.
“I read this type of dancing in a book once, Snow. It’s called ‘Ballroom Dancing’” Estelle replied.
“Huh? Ballroom Dancing?” I repeated scratching my head.
“Yeah! It’s when adult humans dance with expensive dress clothing to a soothing beat of music. Like violins play and things of that sort! Two humans, a male and a female, get real close then dance like this!” Estelle grabbed Snow and danced with her. Snow panicked and stumbled all over the place. I giggled ‘cause it was kind of funny how Snow didn’t know what the heck she was doing.
“No. No. No, Snow! Like this! I’ll be the guy, which means I lead. See? It just goes with a rhythm with the music. Let you’re heart follow along with the soothing music! See, See?? One, Two Three. One, Two, Three!” Estelle corrected Snow’s movements. After a while, Snow got it and their movements matched the people on the TVs. They giggled because it was fun. I clapped because they were pretty good.
“Okay, Bunaye! You’re turn!” Estelle smiled at me, holding out her hand. I hesitated to take her hand. Snow went to the side to watch. I took Estelle’s hand and we began to dance.
“Okay! One, Two, Three. One, Two, Three!” she chanted. I chanted along with her under my breath. My feet moved along with the beat. I was getting it!
“Hey, like this?” I questioned Estelle.
“Yes! Yes! Just like that! Oh you’re pretty good with your feet, Bun!” she complimented. I slightly blushed with a smile and continued to dance. Estelle spun me and dipped me.
“Very good!” Estelle cheered. Snow cheered and clapped in the background. Humans gathered around us like we were street performers. With a final dip from Estelle, the audience around us cheered and clapped. Estelle curtsied and whispered to me.
“Hey Bunaye, curtsey! It’s the final pose” she told me. I nodded and hesitantly curtsied, holding my puffy skirt. Snow did so as well. The cheers grew louder and the three of us stood up. Estelle began to giggle which made us giggle. Then out of no where...
“HEY! THOSE THREE STOLE MY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES!” said the old salesman in the crowd. We quickly ran away. When we got to the cave Estelle tought us many other dances like the Tango, Jazz, Tap Dancing, and Ballet. We continued to practice everyday.
~End of Flashback~
“One, Two Three… One, Two, And Three…” I chanted as I followed the rhythm to the music. I was very swift with my feet. It made me a great dancer. I held out my arms as if I was dancing with somebody. Humming to the beat and stepping in circles, I began to imagine myself in a beautiful dress dancing with a male that face was blacked out.
My ears twitched and my eyes opened. I heard footsteps. But I couldn’t see anyone. It was pretty creepy but I wasn’t afraid. Regarding that, an idea plopped to my head. A big smiled appeared on my face by thinking of it.
“ A Valentine’s Ball!” I shouted out. I ran out of the Ball room and into the office where I started to type out fliers.
-5 minutes later
The fliers were completed and finished with a red and pink lace on each one. It read:
Valentine’s Ball!
Located in the North wing ball room.
Ladies wear dresses and Men dress casual.
Will have food, drinks (if you know what I mean), entertainment, contests and much more! :]
Don’t be late.
I picked up a few copies and walked around the mansion putting up fliers on the walls. I smiled to myself because I felt that this event will bring in love to gijinka… and maybe myself.
Continue?
