Xion didn't know how to react to this information, she was asked to dance by the prince, out of the other millions of maidens at the ball. Her mother always told her she was pretty- but she only took that as a complement from her mother, after all she took after her mostly. But hearing complements like that from a stranger- let alone the prince was...news, to say the very least. Not that she was complaining. She looked up to Vanitas and her brows creased a little, "D-do you really think you should be dancing with...with m-me? B-because I see many beautiful maidens more s-suitable for a prince to dance with...I am mearly a-a servant among kings and queens..." she said trying her best to make herself seem like nothingness so that the prince wouldn't have to be shamed by dancing with a nobody like her. He just shook his head in responce and spoke softly, "They're all fake but you...you're the gem that gleams out of everyone here, you're real, you don't put up a mask to hide your beauty, your true beauty. And even if you don't see it yourself, I do.." Xion laughed a small hollow sound, oh how wrong he really was, 'Real? I'm no more real than the smile i've had on my face all evening...' she thought bitterly, "I'm sorry to disagree with you...but you're wrong."

After finally getting the food he'd been waiting for, and stuffing his face silly, he once again found his brother Roxas staring off into space. "Hey Roxas- what's got you staring off into...the wall?" Roxas didn't look at Sora, he just tilted his head a bit towards him, "Nothing.." he sounded a bit off...and when Sora looked to where he was looking he smiled and pretty much shouted, "You're looking at those two pretty ladies!" Roxas's eyes widened and he back handed Sora, "Sora! It's very impolite to yell." he said firmly as Sora muttered, "Speak for yourself..." while rubbing his head he looked back towards the two maidens he and his brother were stairing at and he suddenly grabbed Roxas by the sleeve of his suit and dragged him towards them and though he tried to protest against Sora, it was to no avial.

Ventus looked towards Fuu who was currently watching his brother actually socializing in awe, and Ventus smiled softly at her and took her hand gently into his, "Would you do me the honor of having this dance?" he asked with such a soft tone she wasn't sure she heard him right, but she nodded timidly anyway, "I'm not very good.." she warned him lightly and he smiled, "I've seen you dance Fuujin, you're better than you think." she smiled back and they went ot dance beside Vanitas and the mysterious maiden.
