Le Author - Ok, lets get this out of the way.

ALL BIOS AND OTHER NON CHAPTER RELATED POSTS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO EAH Companion. This fic is now just the story chapters with none of the randomness in between messing with the flow. I will keep you guys updated on anything I post there and it will include things that will relate to my up and coming AlistairXBunny fics and Fee/Fum's story at EAH. I'll always try to keep you informed if I add anything but I can't promise I'll remember so you may want to follow EAH Companion just in case.

Now about the story.

I'm really sorry if this chapter is so short but I'm kinda hitting writers block. I'm not entirely sure what I should have happen at the party and I haven't come across any inspiration. There will be more dancing and some awkward cute moments between the couples but I honestly don't know what else to do. Also I'm still stuck on Kyle and Cody which doesn't help at all. I really love you guys if you could post some suggestions on appearances. Any idea is a good idea. So anyway, I'll let you read. I'm posting the next chapter in 5 secs and you could technically count this one and that one as one whole chapter but since the next one's a narrator chapter I thought I'd split it up. Hehehe. You guys get to meet Brooke. Anyway, I won't keep you. Enjoy and if you have time let me know what you think.


As Mary-Anne and I walked through the corridors of Ever After High, we really didn't need the little map Briar had drawn on the invite she gave me. You could feel the party through the vibrations in the floor. As long as you followed the noise and the vibrations you could find the party.

Me and Mary-Anne stopped in the doorway of the Royal's Common Room. We'd never been to an EA party before and it was nothing like anything we'd seen in Wonderland. Streamers hung from the ceiling next to bright balloons that lit and caught the flashing lights that were emitted from the small stage at the back of the room. A DJ table was set up there next to 7 ft speakers and beneath a banner that read 'Welcome Book-to-School'. At the edges of the circular room all the tables and sofa that usually littered the floor were pressed against the wall and scrunched up into seating areas while the center was cleared into a dance floor. To the right of the stage was a buffet of different treats while to the left was a photo booth for students to take selfies with props. Overall it was AWESOME.

"Marshal!"

Me and Mary=Anne looked up from gazing at the room to see Briar dodging students to get to us.

"Hey, Briar," I said above the noise.

"Thanks," Briar said with a large smile. She noticed Mary-Anne who had by now to wipe her face of awe and replace it with an indifferent smile. She wasn't the party animal I was but I knew she'd still enjoy it. "Who's this?" Briar asked.

"Briar, this is my sis, Mary-Anne. Mary-Anne, this is our host Briar Beauty," I said pushing my sister gently toward Briar. Mary hates parties mainly for the socializing. Mary was good sport though and offered Briar a hand and they shook. I took the chance while they mingled to glance around. I was looking for some teal and magenta.

"Nice to meet you," Mary-Anne said with a small smile.

"You too. Are you going to MMU too?" Briar asked.

"No. I'm leaving for Wonderland tomorrow," Mary-Anne replied.

"Oh," Briar said. "Well, I'm glad you could make it to my party before you left." Briar turned as someone called her name. "Well I gotta go. I'll see you around. Enjoy." With that she was lost in the swarm of students.

I was still glancing around looking for someone else I might know. Finally I spotted a dark purple head at a set of chairs in the corner.

"Hey, Raven," I said as I approached her and her little group, Mary-Anne right behind me.

"Hey Marsh. Hi Mary-Anne," she said with a smile. I glanced around at her friends. There was a dark haired girl with a red hood that I must say was wicked cool, a wooden skinned girl dressed in purple and green and a white haired girl in armor. Raven started to introduce us. "This is Cerise Hood, Cedar Wood and Darling Charming. Darling is Dexter's twin sister." Me and Darling exchanged a look before I nodded to the rest of them. "This is Marshal Hare and his sister Mary-Anne. Marsh is going to MMU," she continued.

"Have you seen Maddie?" I asked.

"She told us she was going to get a drink," Cerise said.

"We think. She was speaking riddlish so we're not entirely sure," Cedar said.

"She'll be back soon though," Darling said. She fiddled with her drink in her hands. I tried to avoid looking at her or acting like I knew her. I'll explain later.

"EARS!"

I turned around just in time to be slammed into by Maddie. "Ello Crumpet," I said returning the hug then releasing her. She had a cupcake in her hand.

"Dance," she said before dragging to the dance floor. I didn't argue. Ever since I'd caught the first notes walking down the halls, I'd been bouncing to the music.

She pulled us to the dead center just as Fall Out Knights' 'Dance, Dance' came on. I couldn't contain it any longer; I had to dance.

Five songs later me and Maddie took a break from our mix of Wonderlandish and Ever Afterian style of dancing. We weren't tired at all but I was getting hungry. Maddie lead me toward the buffet. I took several plates and pilled them high with one of everything. Then we headed back toward where we'd left Mary-Anne and Raven.

I put my haul on the table and flopped down in between Dexter and Darling. Alistair and Bunny sat together on a love seat while Maddie swished in next to Raven in a winged back chair. Mary-Anne had disappeared to a few set down to sit with Lizzy and Kitty. Cedar and Cerise had disappeared.

"Still as hungry as ever, I see," Darling said with a chuckle behind her hand. Dexter gave her a perplexed look. I could see he was about to ask a question when thankfully someone else interrupted him.

"Hey everyone! How's it going?"

We all glanced to find Briar.

"Hexelent," I said with the largest grin ever.

"Glad to hear it," she said. Before she could say another word someone else dragged her off in a different direction.

Oooh. Who are you?
