Mireille-chan: Here is the next chapter. First of all I realised it's been a long time since I posted anything, I actually had this done but never got around to it (I'm horrible, yell at me in your reviews guys, it's okay.) The next thing I would like to do is address some comments I got. It was brought to my attention by a few people that my chapters are to short, and they should be lengthened to 1000 words at least, unfortunately I didn't recieve that comment til after I was finished writng this, so this chapter will be short. From here on out I'll try to make the chapters at least 900 to 1000 words. Thank you to everyone who reviewed! I've currently got writers block on the next chapter, but please review again and keep reading!!

Part 5: Dancing in Moonlight
Alice opened the doors and walked out into the crisp, cool night air. She glanced up eagerly at the full moon. Out on the balcony everything was quiet, even though inside people still danced and laughed, here Alice was free.
A moment later the balcony doors opened once more and the young man from before walked out. At first he said nothing, just smiled or rather smirked at her. He stared off into the stars a second later, quietly as if lost in his own thoughts. Alice thought that it would be quite rude to disturb him, so she said nothing and continued staring out across the horizon.
Suddenly she felt a hand grasp hers and she looked up to see the boy leading her back inside. Another song was just begging as he led her onto the dance floor. Soon without thinking, Alice had her free hand on his shoulder and he had his hand on her waist. The two began a graceful dance together, their bodies moving simultaneously, as though they knew each other's very thoughts.
Alice felt the movement fluidly, never taking her eyes away from those of her partner. As they danced, she felt the whole room around her spinning. She was remotely aware of the entire crowd staring at her yet she felt as if she was a million miles away. The feeling was magical. And at the second her partner dipped her, the bells tolled midnight and her eyes caught the glorious full moon. Suspended in moonlight she felt as if that moment would never end. However, a few seconds later the song hit its finishing note, signifying that both the song and the ball were over.
The young man let go of Alice's hand.
"I'm sorry, we never introduced ourselves, I am Alice Theresa Stilles," Alice said feeling her face redden.
"I am Ren, just call me Ren…" the boy replied, his voice seemed to be hiding something. "Perhaps we will meet again," He added before quickly turning away leaving Alice in the center of a quickly emptying ballroom.
Mireill-chan: There you go! Please review and tell me anything you would like to see happen in the next chapters, I need inspiration from my readers!
note that Ren might seem to be a lot like Ren from certain anime, that's because I got his looks from combining both Ren from Shaman King and Ren from Karin. However, there personalities have nothing to do with each other; they are NOT the same character.
I also DO NOT own Shaman King or Karin nor do I own any of their characters.
