Ok I couldn't wait to upload this so I forced myself to finish this😅😂

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The usually wide and open streets of the Night Bazaar were now packed full of citizens waiting for the royal Family to scroll down the very streets.

Mini had to weave through the crowd (while trying her hardest to avoid contact with everyone around her) for 30 whole minutes before finally spotting Nikita's lavishly-designed teal and sliver headdress bobbing along the thick swarm of people.

Sheela waved at her to motion that the other siblings are here.

Rohan, or Rohan Sudyodhana Shah, age 23. Eldest sibling in the shah family

Also,

(Nikita, or Nikita Leylani Jagan Shah, age 17. Second youngest in the Shah family)

(Mini, or Yamini Kapoor Mercado Shah, age 19. Third eldest in the Shah family)

(Sheela, or Sheela Asha Jagan Shah, age 17. Youngest in the Shah family)

(Kara, or Karalyn Drishana Shah, age 22. Second eldest in the Shah family)

(Aru, or Arundhati Krithika Shah, age 19. Third youngest in the family)

(Yeah I forgot to mention in the past sorry.Maybe I will make a list later)

Each sibling had color that represented them on their face.

Rohan in fiery orange, Kara in sunny yellow and Sheela in bony white.

Only Nikita, the fashionista in the family, had instead applied the green powder onto her face like makeup and into a beautiful green flower that opened up.

Sheela swallowed Mini into a huge hug before Mini could say anything,"Behen!I miss you!"

Mini laughed,"I miss you too, Choti. How's the festival going?Has the Royal family arrived yet?"

Rohan shook his head," No, there's been a delay for some unknown reason."

Kara crossed her arms neatly,"Wonder what's taking so long."

Nikita held up a pot of colorful powder while Sheela dabbed some dark purple powder onto her fingers and smeared the content onto Mini's cheeks and forehead with two stripes of purple.

"Now you're like us!" Smiled Nikita.

Suddenly, the sound of trumpets rang the air.

(Copy right song, uhhhhh Prince Ali from Aladdin? I don't know.You listen it in YouTube bc I'm too lazy to type.My exam is over.I (think) I deserve a break after three months of endless studying)

The Royal brass bands first appeared, blowing the trumpets loud and clear while the lead marshal waved a staff with the international Altazian flag announced,"THE ROYAL FAMILY OF ALTAZA IS COMING!MAKE WAY!MAKE WAY!"

The citizens tip-toed on their feet while children were carried up by their parents to see better as beautiful maidens danced the Paika Dance of Jharkhand flowed with grace and rhythm through the streets.

Dozens of the palace soldiers marched forward in a steady pace, which were holding a golden spear in hand each.

But what was most exciting thing in the parade was seeing the royalties in the flesh.Everyone held their breaths and waited.

Suddenly, a giant thud rocked the bazaar like a mini earthquake, followed by a dozen more added up.

Behind the marching soldiers finally revealed the Royal family's 278 (and counting) princesses,each one rode a golden carriage from the palace's personal collection.Driven by a driver and a black horse.
