KAT: Hi! I'm back with the second chapter. Arme, Lire, and Amy are out in the ball so..I guess I'll have to do the disclaimer on my own!

Elesis: HOLD IT! I'm still here!

KAT: E-Elesis? Aren't you supposed to be...

Elesis: I told Ronan I won't go until I say the disclaimer!

KAT: -Looks at Ronan-

Ronan: ^_^"

KAT: O-okay then...fire away, Elesis! xD

Elesis: Gladly!

Disclaimer(Elesis' Voice): KAT doesn't own the game and the characters but she owns this plot.

KAT: Happy?

Elesis: Heck yeah! Come on let's go! -drags Ronan-

KAT: -waves hand- See ya later guys.

Ronan: S-see ya... ^_^"

Arme's eye twitched, day after day after day after day, Amy won't stop persuading her to go to the ball. Now it's the day where it actually is due. "Come on Arme, please? I want to spend time with you at the ball! Lire and the others too!" Amy whined.

"Amy, no means no, I need to finish reading my books before tomorrow since they are due tomorrow, I don't want to be scolded by Ms. Mari again like last time when you persuaded me to go join you guys on your picnic," she said.

"Aww pwease? You can bring your books there and read, you don't have to dance or whatever, just go with us, please?" Amy said, using her ultimate technique, The Puppy Dog Eyes.

Arme sighed and closed her eyes, "Tch. Fine, as long as I can bring my books I'll go."

"Yay~ Thanks Arme!" Amy jumped and gave her a big warm hug. "Now I got just the cute dress for you~" Amy chimed, dragging Arme out of her house and dragged her to her own home.

A few minutes later, Arme came out wearing a beautiful lavender dress, long gloves to keep her warm and a gold necklace to decorate her neck. Amy decided to play with her hair as well, leaving it as a neat ponytail and a beautiful silk ribbon to keep her hair intact.

"Uhm...Amy...don't you think this is too flashy?" Arme said, staring at the dress she's wearing.

"What do you mean? You look pretty~ All you need now is a pair of matching shoes..." Amy thought for a while before snapping her fingers. "I've got just the thing! Just wait right here!"

Arme sighed and sat on a chair to read a book, "Amy's too hyperactive, seriously."

Amy twirled in the room, a box in hand, "Try putting these on~!" she chimed, handing the box to her.

Arme's eyes widened, "Glass slippers? Wasn't this your mom's?" she asked. Amy nodded.

"I was planning to wear it, but I decided maybe it would fit you instead~ After all, I'm still in love with my cute pink doll shoes I bought a week ago~" she said, lifting her skirt a little to show her shoes.

Arme nervously put on the glass slippers, looking at Amy worriedly, "I was right! It looks perfect on you!"

Arme blushed a little, "Thanks...I guess..."

"Amy~ Are you there?" Lire's voice echoed in her room.

"Oh! Lire's here!" Amy said, rushing to the front door. "Hi Lire!"

"Hi, I thought you'd be in Arme's home but you two weren't there, good thing I decided to check your house. Where's Arme?"

Amy grinned, "See for yourself~" she pulled Arme to the front door, waiting for Lire to comment.

"Oh! You're coming! That's great!" Lire smiled, hugging Arme. "I almost thought you wouldn't, I guess Amy is good in persuading people," she laughed softly.

Arme pouted, "Amy said I could bring my books so I agreed," she said.

"Well~ It's almost time for the ball, let's go!" Amy chimed, pulling her friends.

"Ronan will pick up Elesis so we don't have to check on her," Lire said.

"Oooh~ Those two are so lovey dovey~" Amy giggled.

"You and Jin too," Arme said.

"Oh shush you! Jin hasn't...confessed to me yet..." she said, blushing.

Meanwhile at the castle...

Lass glanced down at the people entering his home through the window, inspecting every visitor, hoping that 'she' would come. "Lass, you should go greet our guests, it's the least we can do as the hosts of the ball," the King said, patting him on the back.

Lass sighed and nodded, "I'll be there, I just need to stay here for a little longer," he said. "Are you expecting someone, my boy?" the King asked. "You could say that, I won't be long here, just go ahead, I'll just catch up."

With a nod, his father turned around and decided to join his wife. Lass once again, directed his attention at the window. With a sigh, he turned around and joined his parents.

She's not here...

He stood next to his father, scanning the room for the face he longed to see after all those years. His eyes locked on the women wearing revealing clothing, he sighed, shaking his head, wanting to search for the girl no more. 'Disgusting vultures...' he thought.

The trumpets played, signalling the entrance of each and every people who came. And with a loud voice, the King announced...

"Welcome one and all to the Grand Ball!"

KAT: -stares at screen- It's short! It's as short as Ar-

Arme: Don't. You. Dare. -points staff at KAT-

KAT: A-Arme? Aren't you going to the ball?

Arme: You didn't mention that I was in the castle already, you dummy.

KAT: ^_^" T-touche...

Lire: Ahahaha...Don't forget to read and review guys ^^

Amy: Stop dawdling~ We got a ball to go to!

KAT: Have fun!
