The 14th of May was nearing. The palace was adorned elegantly. It was Spark's prince's birthday, after all. This year, Robin was deciding how to celebrate his birthday along with the boys. "What about like every year?" Elijah said. Robin sighed. "I told you at least a hundred times, No! I want it to be different this year." "And you have said that a thousand times." Alan palm faced himself.

Robin rose and looked around to find some inspiration. He walked around the decorated palace rooms until he came to his bedroom. Robin sat on his bed and looked forward. He saw a black mask resting on his table. Robin stood up, picked it up, and started examining it. It was a mask that he used to use to play with his sister. He didn't use it as much as he used to.

Suddenly, he got an idea. "A masquerade ball! That would be perfect!" He rushed to tell the others about the plan. "So, Mr. Party Planner, did you get your inspiration." Matt grinned, and the four boys started laughing. Robin rolled his eyes at them. "The perfect party that I have never had is a masquerade." he smiled. "A masquerade!" Jino snapped. "That's perfect!" "That's why I thought of it," Robin smirked, feeling proud of himself.

Robin informed his parents about his plans, and they agreed. The next day Robin woke up early. Robin was heading out when he heard someone behind him. " Monsieur Robin," Robin turned around and saw a tall French man staring back at him. "Your party?" he asked. Antonie was the royal messenger abroad from Paris. He has been working for the royal family for the past 20 years.

"Yes, announce a masquerade ball, please. " "Yes, right away." Antonie bowed and walked away. Later in the evening, posters were stuck, and an announcement was made near a café. "Dear people," Antonie began. "As you know, our honorable Prince Robin's birthday is coming up. The prince has announced that he would like to have a masquerade for his 22nd birthday. All ladies and gentlemen, wear your most treasured and elegant clothes. And please do wear a mask." Amidst the gathering, a young lady at the age of 15 was grinning to herself after hearing the announcement.
