"Actually, it's a tradition to begin the meeting with a dance. And it just so happens we have 16 people today, eight women and eight men." Firomis opened the doors to the ballroom and looked at Kristin. "Will you be my partner during this dance?" he smiled at her and the others made their way inside.

She blinked a few times - a thing she always did when she was caught off guard- and she looked down. "There are so many other girls for you to dance with. I am sure they will be more than happy to accept you invitation", she said. "Either way, I am not so good at dancing"

"Nonsense!" he laughed a bit and took her hand gently, leading her into the ballroom. "None of the others are coordinated enough to dance either, which is why we do this. Celestia and I are the only ones who fully know how to dance." He snapped his fingers to queue the music to play and Davius started it. The others were all stumbling around trying to dance with their partners, which was something definitely not out of a fantasy storybook nor something you would think would come from nobles. There was however one couple- Celestia and Kevin- who actually looked like they knew how to dance, though Kevin messed up frequently. Firomis turned back to Kristin and began to lead her into a dance, his movements flawless and perfect.

She looked at Celestia and Kevin too. Her competitive spirit was starting to wake up. She eyed them for a long minute, having no problem to follow Firomis movements. "Ok, ok", she said "I do know how to dance, satisfied?"

"Good! Then let's speed it up a bit!" he said as he began to take longer and quicker steps.

((By the way, in case you didn't see it, I updated the first page with more character bios, though they are more brief this time.))

(( noticed ))
She hadnt dance for a long time and in the begining she had difficulty in following his steps. She fast remembered all her dancing lessons and was able to follow him. A huge smile had appeared on her lips.

Firomis smiled back at her sweetly, pulling her a bit closer to him as they danced around the ballroom, the other girls, save for Celestia, filled with envy for the new girl being able to dance so well with Firomis. The song lasted for another 4 minutes before it stopped and Firomis led Kristin over to a large rectangular table where. He slowly walked to one of the very ends of it and sat down in the chair, the rest of the group taking their seats afterwards.

"Now what?", she whispered, not liking much the way everyone was looking at her. If that kept long she was going to get really angry.

The group all turned their attention towards Firomis, waiting for him to tell them why they were there. "Alright, first off, all of you did absolutely horrible except for Kristin, Kevin and Celestia. Aside from that, I have an update on the matter concerning Fenix." Firomis paused for a moment. "It appears as though Kristin is currently on his list of targets to kidnap, but we're not sure as to the reason why just yet. We were told by a person that used to work for Fenix that he was going to look into the matter, and that he wanted us to follow his orders on getting Kristin in and out of Fenix's grasp safely. However, I am leaving the decision to move on that person's plan entirely in the hands of Kristin, since she would be the bait. My question is, do all of you want to proceed with our original plan to storm Fenix's residence, or would you also want to wait for this other guy's plan?" The group began discussing the matter amongst themselves.

"This is going to take time", she mumbled. "Firomis, were is Amelia? I havent seen her today", she said, trying to find smething to talk about while she waited for the others to stop talking. She did like the way he stuck up for her.

"Amelia is behind you." Firomis stated slowly, as he looked at Kristin with a smile.
"I'm in agree that the decision to choose a plan should be left up to Kristin, since it wouldn't be right for us to put her in a bad situation if she didn't want to be." Celestia said outright. The rest of the group seemed to nod in unison. Hayate looks up at Kristin, "However, I think we are all ready to move on the mansion as soon as we can find a time when it looks safe enough to do so."

"I dont have a problem with tha bait plan", she said, casting a side glance on Firomis. "Though I am more interested in storming Fenix mansion"

"It is the more fun plan, but also more dangerous too." Amelia said as her body formed from the air behind Kristin. She placed her hands on Kristin's shoulders lightly. "Of course, in terms of sheer power, skill and the ability to overcome the odds, everything is in our favor." Rita spoke up loudly. Tarren nodded slowly. "Yes, and I've been doing some research on the workings of Fenix's house, so I've managed to come up with a time table for when the guards change shifts, when the least amount of guards are active and about, and various other things like that."
Firomis nodded slowly also, "As expected from you Tarren, always one to have information on something vital at the right time."

Kristin looked up at Amelia. She was a air user too? Many magicians. She never liked being around so many magicians. It made her feel treatened.
((I kind of dont know what to say.....))
