Alpha shook his head at Zadina but didn't look down in case it gave the girls an idea as to where the boy was "No thanks, I don't particulaly like beetroot. Anyway why don't you just use a spell to make those girls go away or make them no longer able to see you" he asked curiously settling for a chicken leg to eat.
Seph nodded taking a glass of wine fromthe tray and took a small sip. "You're right it's good stuff even if the one I had wasn't very strong. I'll make sure that I don't eat any of the stuff Enkidu ate in case he left dog drool" she answered rushing over to the table next to Alpha and immediately going for a big lump of meat. "Now I don't know what this is but it tastes lovely" she remarked between mouthfulls.
Hebal smiled quickly apologising to an elf who she had just pushed past and continued to make her way through the crowd until she reached the elf in question. "Hey there, it's good to know you got here ok without injuries" she greeted Shizuka patting her on the shoulder from behind. "I totally forgot about the gria" she added to Mari not wanting to leave her out.

Satoshi shrugged looking down at their feet as she took hold of Gil "The name is ok I suppose and I'm not exactly going to be winning any dancing competitions either. I doubt you could step on my toes because I have little feet. Anyway if you remember I told you I would tell you my name if you stopped making rude gestures at the guards" she pointed out gazing up at him.
Felina grinned mischevously casting float on Oassu so that his head was at a slightly greater height than her own "There you go is that a little better?" she asked reaching up to kiss his cheek. "Hey if we do get married you're going to get the title 'Prince Oassu' you know? But we don't have to live anywhere near the palace if you don't want to make a habit of going to events like this one"
Shizuka jumped in surprise then turned around to wave at Hebal and Mari "Hey you guys, I didn't expect to see you hear so early. Not that it's a bad thing of course. I hope you're well, I got lucky and only got a few cuts and bruises" she told them pointing to a scratch that ran down the side of her face. "Defending the city centre was a really hard job"

Mari nodded "Your telling me I was almost KO'd by one of their lieutenants" she groaned remembering it "Anyway you two girls have fun now" she smiled.
Itaka grinned patting Seph on the back "Hey Alpha how's it going" he said taking a leg of a pig from the next table and going up to Seph to eat it patting her on the back "A good healthy appetite" he chuckled.
Zadina said nothing, choosing to stay hidden now that the girls had moved closer.
Oassu laughed "Yeah this is fine provided no one looks at my feet" he said using his new height to twirl Felina. "Prince Oassu eh?..." he said thinking about it "It sounds nice but I'm not sure if I'm cut out for nobility I mean, I'm still a thief at heart" he said with a kiss on her forehead.
Gil smiled glancing at her feet as he gained confidence and his dancing skill improved with the upbeat tempo "Little feet, big heart" he chanted happily "Still I suppose thats fair but shouldn't a ninja be more cautious with her name?" he whispered to her "Not that I'm complaining I think it's beautiful" he said stepping back to turn Satoshi over in the air using all his hands before setting her down again to dance.

Alpha paused glancing around at the girls Zadina was trying to avoid before leaning in towards Seph and Itaka "Things are going ok thanks, Zadina is hiding under the table so I bet he would be most grateful if you could scare his fans away somehow" he whispered cautiously sniffing a bowl of soup lying on the table then gulped it down once he was sure it wasn't something he disliked.
Seph smirked at this then turned around to make a low growl at the fangirls in hope it might put them off a little. "What can I say, All that battling made me hungry and I love really meaty foods" she answered reaching up and stealing a little bit of Itaka's food "Don't mind me, I'm just checking the quality" she teased.
Hebal nodded rubbing her ear slightly "Yep I'm well apart from having a really big head ache after all that battling" she complained tracing her finger along the cut on Shizuka's face "Can't one of the mages do something to heal that up? It looks kinda painful" she questionned glancing back at Mari to see what she was doing.

Satoshi smirked moving slightly to the side so that Gil wouldn't stand on the end of her toes by accident "You know for a guy who said he couldn't dance you're doing rather well you know? I'm impressed" she complimented him while she lelaned in closer "Well you see I am quite relaxed about it considering if you do go throwing my name a bout to the world a ninja or 50 will come after you" she whispered bac.
Felina laughed happily looking up at Oassu for once "Look on the brightside at this height nobody can step on your toes. Oh and don't worry about the title thing. Since you're not of royal blood it will be me who has to do all the hard work. You'll be able to steal as much as you want" she reassured him quietly placing her head agaianst his chest.
Shizuka smiled weakly glancing over at a group of elves who were currently having a conversation with the king and queen then looked back towards Heal and shook her head. "I could ask a white mage to treat it but I would feel bad. Very few mages invited could attend becase most of them were either to tired or busy healing others. It would be selfish to pull them away from the more important people" she answered rubbing one of Hebal's ears.

Mari nodded peering at the cut "Well get Felina to look at it, shes a dab hand with magic and should be able to fix it up in no time, I'm sure Hebal doesn't mind you've got a little cut anyway" she whispered to her.
Itaka finished his food yet the girls seemed to ignore Seph's low growl at them and were still moving closer. Itaka grabbed a mint imperial from the table before crunching it down before grabbing Seph and tilting her over giving her a deep passionate kiss. Tilting his head up he glared at the girls "Do you mind?" he asked as the girls blushed and mumbled apologies before dashing away. Itaka finished the kiss and straightened Seph up before going back to his wine "Job Done" he said sipping his wine casually.
Zadina popped up out of the table "They're gone? Good!" he said taking some grapes and eating them "I need to go see Uncle Ellie and Auntie Alusaadi without them seeing me" he murmed casting a spell on himself causing a big present box to appear labelled "For King Ellie" on it. Two eyeholes appeared on one side as Zadina peeked out before the box shuffled along the floor.
Oassu cuddled Felina as he slowed down "That wouldn't do, me stealing while your doing all the proper stuff, what would your people think, especially if I got caught once, plus it wouldn't be fair to let you do all the stuff" he chuckled stroking Felina's hair.
Gil smiled bashfully "I can't do much not compared to some of these elves still I won't go spreading your name about" he chuckled "A name like that is too good to share" he said adjusting himself to move for the new slow dance.

Alpha raised his eyebrow at Itaka and then at Zadina "Heh now I didn't expect that from you of all people but that disguise looks too silly to work" he grumbled glancing over at Zadina who nearly ran into someones legs and took a sip out of the nearest drink on the table "Cheers you two"
Seph bl inked still trying to work out what had just happened in her head. Once things began to click into place she smiled and sighed contently before going back to her food. "Well aren't you full of surprises this evening but hey it worked" she grinned kissing his neck then helped herself to a fish. "Good luck by the way" she called after Zadina.
Hebal nodded grabbing hold of Shizuka's arm "You worry too much and I bet Felina wouldn't mind healing you up a bit. And we're going to try and find you a date" she insisted also grabbing hold of Mari and dragging him towards the dancefloor and over to her friend "Hey Felinaaa will you heal Shizuka for us?" she requested poking her lightly in the back.

Felina smiled running her hands through Oassu's hair lightly "That may be true but I don't want you to change and become some fancy nobleman for the sake of keeping up appearences with me" she replied happily before turning around to face Hebal. She was a little annoyed at being interrupted but smiled regardless "Sure I'll heal you, you should have just said you were hurt" she replied putting her hand on Shizuka's cheer and healing it up in a matter of seconds.
Satoshi shrugged placing her arms around Gil's waist since she wasn't tall enough to reach his shoulders. "Correction you can't do as much as some of these elves in this particular style of dance. I mean not all dancing is learning fancy steps and stuff, in fact thats the boring kind you only see in high up places like this" she reassured him looking down to stop the intensity of the light above her from blocking her vision.
Shizuka blushed a little but still managed to politely bow to Felina "Thanks for the spell Feli, if you said no I wouldn't have been offended if you said no" she thanked her giving out a big hug to the elf. "Anyway now thats out the way would you care to dance or something and I'll try and help you find Mari someone" she asked Hebal shyly.

Oassu sighed as the moment was killed "Alright glad to see your ok Shizuka was the battle alright for you?" he asked putting his arms around Felina.
Mari laughed "There all's well but don't worry about me you don't need to get me a guy, I wouldn't be too sure about any elf looking for a one-night thing with a human anyway" she said crossing her arms "Still if your settling down for a dance I'll go introduce myself to the barman" she chuckled.
Zadina bumped into a waiter's leg in his box. The waiter turned around and spotted the present before reading the label, he placed his platter on the table and carried the present through the crowd to the king. Itaka laughed at this "Smart boy" he said raising his glass to Alpha "Cheers" he said taking a drink before chuckling a little "Anyway that was fun we should scare little girls more often" he said taking some chopped pork and adding it to his plate.
Gil smiled "Yes nobility are a pain to deal with usually, though I would like to meet Felina's parents while I'm here" he said spinning Satoshi around him completely before pulling her in front of him again "Dancing isn't a vital skill anyway" he laughed "I'm happy with what I know"

Seph snickered holding up her glass with the others "Umm cheers I guess, to whatever we are toasting to. To scaring girls" she joked taking a sip from her drink then gulping down the entire fish in one go. "Hmm do you think we should invite Mari over since she looks kinda lonely" she asked glancing around in her direction.
Alpha smiled reaching for another drink then stood up and waved to Mari to invite her over. "I wouldn't have a big problem scaring away girls if I wasn't posing as an old man. Hehe maybe they'll get the shock of their lives later when I have had more to drink" he chuckled shifting his attention over to Zadina's hiding place "HLa I can't believe that actually worked"
Hebal nodded happily pulling Shizuka towards her and twirled her around "Sure I like dancing even if I don't get what sort of things your dancing involves. We'll leave you guys to do your own thing whatever it may be" she added waving to the others before taking her partner towards the middle of the floot.

Satoshi nodded pulling herself slightly closer to Gil "You have better skills than dancing. But you see that really tall guy with silvery grey hair standing by the end of the table? Thats her dad, he mum is that pink haired one standing next to him" she told him quietly pointing to the king who had just had a gift placed in front of him by one of the waiters. "Felina's younger sister is dancing a few people along from us and her older one is sitting next to the food" she added rubbing her forehead.
Shizuka grinned clumsily bowing to Oassu just before Hebal grabbed hold of her and twirled her around. "The battle was ok for me and I hope it was for you too" she called over while she was dragged away into the middle of the dancefloor. "Hehe I take it you haven't been to that many parties like this one either" she remarked.
Felina laughed pulling Oassu further towards her "It's kind of hard to believe that once upon a time I was as enthusiastic as Hebal when it came to dancing and things. Anyway where were we before they interrupted" she asked but suddenly remembered Mari was still there. "If your lookingfor something nice to drink why not try one of the fruit based drinks, they are a little sweet but good."

Mari smiled as Hebal and Shizuka started dancing before walking over to Alpha and the others. "Hey guys, OOOHHH FOOD!" she said leaping at the table and tucking in.
Itaka laughed "To scaring girls" he said taking a sip and frowning uncertainly at a bunch of oysters on the table before changing his mind and taking a bowl of noodles "Hey Mari go easy we don't want you to choke," he said taking a mouthful "And Alpha don't you go demoning up, knowing these elves reactions to Enkidu they'd probably try and get you for it, plus you'd burn up your nice suit" he joked.
Oassu smiled dancing with Felina again "Is it really that hard to imagine? Your awesome on your feet I'm not surprised you like it" he chuckled watching Shizuka and Hebal twirl away.
Zadina burst out of the box with a cry of "Uncle Ellie!" and gave his uncle a hug.
Gil burst into laughter as he watched Zadina surprise Elorin but quietened down as Satoshi moved closer to him brushing against him slightly "Well the kid sure has some skills, though at Elorin's age he may give him a heart attack" he chuckled "Still its good none of them got hurt and isn't the little sister a cute wee thing" he cooed absently using his arm to rub Satoshi's forehead.

Alpha shrugged stuffing his face with slices of bread "Meh it was a free suit so I have no issues if it gets destroyed. Besides I bet I could get Satoshi to repair/replace it" he answered letting out a large burp upon completely digesting his food "Having fun yet Mari? And where did Ivy go?" he asked making an effot to include her.
Seph scratched her head glancing around the table searching for something to try next "I don't know about that Itaka, they don't seem to have too big a problem with me and I'm not exactly the most human looking of creatures" she pointed out eventually settling for a bowl of green soup but couldnt help but laugh at Zadina's surprise.
Hebal nodded swaying back and forward as the music began to slow down "Nope this is the first time I have ever got to go to a fancy party of this scale. I wouldn't even have had anything to wear if it weren't for Satoshi's sewing work" she chirped spinning around to show off her dress.

Felina shook her head at Oassu turing the two of them around in a small circle "Actually I usually find this sort of thing a little boring. I just enjoy dancing with you, it's what makes the whole thing a little fun again" she told him quietly watching Zadina with a smile "Hehe do you think my dear cousin has what it takes to be a ninja?"
Elorin jumped back a little as Zadina jumped out of the box to surprised him but soon chuckled and hugged him back "Nice to see you Zadina, are you enjoying the party? I hope Felina has healed you up nicely" he greeted him. Meanwhile Alusaadi laughed at the two of them before making her way to her nephew to give him a hug as well.
Satoshi smiled glancing over at Corella who was wearing a pink frilly dress with loads of ribbons "Yeah she's cute I guess for being the equivelent of a 16 year old" she replied gently removing Gil's arm then pushed her hair out of her face "Elorin isn't old enough for heart attacks yet, he would have to be of very poor health to have loads of those when he's only gone through half of his life" she pointed out.
Shizuka grinned grabbing hold of the bottom of Hebal's dress to have a feel of the fabric. "Does Satoshi have a part time job making dresses or something because this is all good quality including the stitching. My dress isn't anything special but I didn't have that many things left after my apartment got destroyed during the battle" she sighed.

Oassu laughed spinning energetically with Felina "Well maybe we should take up something a little different like street dancing or I've always wanted to try break dancing" he chuckled glancing over at Zadina "He's quite the boy, I'll admit that, when he's not trying to set me on fire" he said with a smile.
"Auntie Alusaadi!" Zadina cheered glomping his aunt "I'm so happy to see your both alright, Felina was very good to me and Oassu took good care of her during the battle" he said waving to them on the dancefloor. "So tell me Uncle how many bad guys did you beat up on the battlefield?" he asked eagerly his eyes full of admiration.
Itaka grinned stroking Seph's arm and kissing her head "They don't have a problem with you cause you look so fine" he chuckled cutting himself a slice of cake and eating it "Anyway when your finished we'll go have a nice dance" he told her.
Mari giggled pointing to a group of bearded elves with flowers and all sorts of shapes in their beards walking past talking seriously while the little sprite known as Ivy stalked them. "Yea I'm having a great time, I take it you've been to some parties in your time eh Alpha?" she chuckled ripping a chunk of meat off her chicken leg.
Gil smiled "Really? He's done a lot for his life, I hope I'm that good when I'm his age," he chuckled "Fancy going and getting a drink?" he asked brightly.
