Ahiru carefully carried Rue's hot chocolate to her room. She knocked on the door. "Mis Rue?" She called into the room.
"Come in." Rue's voice said. Ahiru opened the door and went in placing the hot chocolate on Rue's nightstand.
"Good morning miss Rue. How was the ball?" Rue sighed getting up from her bed.
"Oh little duck. It was like nothing you could imagine." Rue said tossing her hair back. "It was magical and beautiful." She said smiled. Ahiru smiled as well.
"Really? Did you get to dance with the prince?" Rue looked at her
"Really Duck? of course I danced with him. I'm too pretty for him to turn down a dance with me. We danced for hours. Then a stupid princess showed up." Rue muttered the last part under her breath. It was not to be misssed by Ahiru.
"There was a princess?" SHe asked innocently.
"yes." Rue said slowly. "There was. Everyone made a big fuss about her." Ahiru looked fasinated.
"Did she dance with the prince?" Ahiru asked looking at her with big wide eyes. Rue frowned.
"Yes she did. Not nearly as long as me you know but yes she did dance with him." Ahiru sat thinking about the night before.
"It must have been the most beautiful palace. I can imagine it to be Beautifully clean with gold and white glimmering room. The people on the ballroom floor. Even more people on the side. And many girls waiting at the side of the room. The prince in the center. He would look more handsome than any other man in the room. His deep green eyes looking into whoever danced with him." As she spoke Rue's face got more and more suspicias. She looked down thinking as Ahiru finished and sighed dreamily. Just then Pike and Lilie ran into the room.
"Rue! you won't beilieve what we just heard!" Pike said excitedly. Rue looked at her.
"What?" she asked bordley.
"Remember that princess last night? Well it's rummered she wasn't a princess at all and that her neclace only made her look like that. So the prince and muto are going around to every home trying on the necklace!" Lilie said excited. Rue raised an eyebrow.
"Well. that is... interesting." She said.
"That's not even the best part." Pike said. "If the necklace turns the girl into the princess the prince will marry that girl." At that point Ahiru sat up looking at her. That was noted by Rue who held back a glare.
"Well when will he be here?" Rue asked. The girls looked at each other excitedly.
"Very soon. he's almost here." Pike said.
Rue motioned for the girls to come to her and she wispered to them. What they said Ahiru could not hear but she was in her own world invisioning Fakir putting the necklace on her. Then Rue turned and said to Ahiru, "Duck. Last night i saw you carry one of my dresses to your room to alter. I want to see it now." She said. Ahiru got up and went to her room looking around. Then she remembered. She brought no dress up here. Then she heard the thunk of a lock on her door. She ran to the door and pulled at it but it was locked. That is when it hit her.
Rue had done this. Rue knew.
