"So, what's the letter on the February soul key say?" Inferno asked.
"Let's see..." Lilan said as she tugged the letter off.
Dear Marchie-Poo,-
"Haha, Marchie-Poo." Inferno poked March, who was still sitting on him.
March punched him in the back of his head. "Shut up, I'm reading the letter."
Dear Marchie-Poo,
How's finding the keys coming? Good? Great! So the April soul key is... ha ha, you'll find this funny... its at a country club chic party. Just get you Fernokinz cute matching ball outfits and you'll be fine. I see that you and Inferno are dating, obviously. And Cat, Lilan, and joined you! That'll be a great addition to my little collection.
Your Sweet Old Friend,
Myz!
"A country club chic party? Easy enough. Haha, Fernokinz." March flicked her index finger and 3 ball dresses and a tux appeared.
"Nah, me, Emery, and Cat won't come." Lilan shrugged.
"Why not?" Inferno asked.
"It's obvious that Marchie-Poo already claimed Fernokinz as her escort. So we can't come without a date. But don't worry about us! We'll just watch the romance happen from a window." Emery fangirl giggled with Cat and Lilan for the hundredth time.
Inferno and March rolled their eyes. March kissed Inferno on his cheek.
"There. I payed for the ride." March said as she hopped off his shoulders.
"But I thought my punishment lasted a month?" Inferno stretched his arms in the air.
"Nah, I'm not going to a country club on your back." She shrugged.
"Well, in the next town is where the country club is I bet! Let's go." Cat said.
When they arrived at the town, they all parted ways. Cat grabbed Lilan and Emery's wrists.
"There's a Hibachi & Sushi Bar over there, and I'm craving some kani (crab) rolls!" Cat happily dashed away with poor Emery and Lilan.
March and Inferno slipped on their ball attire and headed for the country club.
A/N:
I'm just going to tell you now, the Monthies live in kinda their own world in the clouds. Earth is Earth and Topia (their cloud world) is Topia. The people aren't necessarily humans, because they can learn magic. It's just that the people that don't know magic are thought of as 'humans'. And also, their money works differently. They don't have dollars or euros or pesos. Their money is called stitches. Don't ask. Just thought you'd like a little explanation on what's about to happen at the country club!
...
"Welcome to Eternal Oaks. This party will cost 6,000 ( 600 dollars for us. I guess you could say it works like yen) stitches." Some uptight fancy pants guy inquired.
Pfft, pocket money. March thought. She made 6,000 stitches appear with magic, secretly behind her back.
"Here you go." March curtsied and walked into the party with the most sass she could summon.
This place looked like heaven.
The polished ivory floors sparkled below the feet of guests. The cream colored velvet wallpaper draped around them. Faux fox fur rugs ruffled under the people's glimmering footwear.
"Looks like hell for stains." Inferno laughed.
March secretly stabbed the heel of her stilettos into his toe. "Act sophisticated or so help me I'll jab a pencil into your brain. We just need to find the key."
Inferno saw a little rainbow flash in a window high above. He looked up to see Cat, Lilan, and Emery drooling and fangirling. Inferno rolled his eyes. He and March linked arms and mingled.
"Hello? Hello? Is this thing on? Yeah? Oh, okay. Welcome to the Eternal Oaks Chic Party! The auction is to start now!" Some Triassic age old lady grinned.
"Auction!" March whispered to Inferno. "The April soul key must be in there!"
"Let's go." He replied.
They walked up to the line that lead to the auction room.
"Are you a married couple?" A greeter at the door asked.
"Yes." March smiled as she secretly made rings appear on their fingers.
"Ah, lovely rings. I'm sorry I had to ask but you seemed quite young." The greeter grinned back.
"You flatter me!" March giggled. As they walked away, March turned around and gagged.
"OUR FIRST AUCTION ITEM: A RARE PAINTING, ONE OF IT'S KIND MADE BY DA VINCI HIMSELF!" The old dinosaur lady said up on a stage. "DO WE HAVE ONE THOUSAND STITCHES!?"
Hands were raised.
"I BID 10,000 STITCHES!" Some random person screamed.
"SOLD TO THE LADY IN THE PEACOCK HAT!" Dinosaur yelled.
"Come on, the soul key has to be somewhere." Inferno mumbled.
"NEXT WE HAVE A MYSTERIOUS TREASURE ITSELF! THIS MARBLE KEY WITH PALE ROSE GEMS HAS THE INQUISITIVE WORD APRIL CARVED INTO THE KEY'S ENCHANTING PALE BASE!" Dinosaur announced.
"This is it! The April soul key!" March courageously grinned and got ready.
"THIS IS TRUELY A FINE PIECE SO JUST YELL OUT YOUR PRICE!" Dino announced.
"I bid 100,000 stitches some mysterious man strutted out of the crowd into sight. March frowned.
"200,000 stitches!" March huffed.
The man furrowed his brow and walked up to March's face. "300,000 stitches!"
March crinkled her nose. "400,000 stitches!"
The number of stitches just increased and increased. The two were barely an inch away from each other's face.
"If that's how it is..." March smiled evily. 'Then I bid one billion stitches."
Everyone gasped.
"C-Could we please see the money first?" Dino stuttered.
March reached into her purse and secretly proofed up a billion stitches. There was so much that she had to hold it with both hands.
"Ah, I can't do this. My wife would kill me if she saw I was even bidding." The man grumbled.
"THE KEY SOLD TO THE LOVELY LADY WITH RED HAIR!" Dino announced.
"HAHA! WE DID IT!" March squealed. She ran up to Inferno and kissed him.
"Ha, yeah. I stashed a couple of macaron boxes in my pants though so we'd better leave soon." Inferno whispered.
March handed them the money and got the key. They left the country club. Lilan looked like someone punched her in the stomach. Cat looked like she just saw a puppy fall off a bridge with a brick tied to its back. Emery looked like she saw a poor, helpless, level 3 Chikorita get the life beaten out of it by Mew.
"What happened to you guys?" March asked, yet again on top of Inferno.
"You guys happened to us." Lilan sighed.
"Oh, sorry." Inferno pulled a box of macarons out of his pants. "Here."
"I DON'T WANT YOUR PANT PASTRIES!" Emery smacked his hand away.
"Then what is it?" March asked.
"You CLEARLY kissed and you don't have ANY feelings for that!?" Cat yelled.
"No, why?" Inferno replied.
"WE REALLY WANTED TO FANGIRL BUT NO YOU SMOOCHED AND DIDN'T CARE!!" Lilan screamed.
"Do you want me to care?" March inquired.
"Well, we're you even thinking when you kissed him?" Emery asked.
"ERD MER GERD. Okay, this is how it works. Inferno is pretty much like my pet. He's a dragon." March said.
"March is my owner. So what. Owners and pets might give kisses to each other, but I HAVE NO ROMANTIC INTEREST IN MARCH." Inferno answered.
"Not even a LITTLE?" Cat asked.
"Ya know what, GO AHEAD, ship away." March rolled her eyes.
"But if January is dating her pet, why can't you?" Emery asked.
"BECAUSE SHE LIKES HIM. I DON'T HAVE TO LIKE HER!" Inferno yelled.
"Yeah, but-" Lilan got cut off.
"SHUT IT, ALL OF YOU!" March and Inferno screamed.
...
???? POV
"Ha, they're getting closer." I laughed.
"Sir, I believe that your plan is almost unbeatable." On of my servants said.
"Good. But go work so it's totally unbeatable." I ordered.
"Yes, my master." He bowed and exited.
"You can't keep us like this forever!" The tied up, frail, powerless June winced.
"March'll beat you!" October cried. "And you'll be sorry then!"
"Get me out!" October cried, but she was so hungry it was more of a whisper. "Feed me candy! I need my candy!"
"Gimme my video games, Myz! I swear Myz, I gotta play Link's ocarina!" May screamed.
"Shut up you powerless rats." I said. "I'll give you candy, and your video games."
"Really!" All the captive Monthies screamed.
"When you're all dead." I cackled.
"You suck Myz." August grumbled.
