The Lost princess

The dance

Rythians POV

After the morning event of the presents, I was left alone to prepare myself for tonight's party because apparently (according to my mother) it was going to take most if the morning and some of the afternoon to prepare. I lazed about for the morning, trying to take my mind off of Zoey. Tonight I need to pick my bride and if she was there, I was picking her. When it turned afternoon I stared to get ready. Looking in my wardrobe I out on a black tail coat jacket, which reached the back of my knees, black dress pants and shoes, a crisp white shirt a red waistcoat and a purple tie. I took off my mask for the first time in years and in amazement saw that my scars had disappeared and my face smooth and tanned.

I looked at my hair and left it as it was, messy in a smart way. A minute later a maid entered and bowed, she told me it was time to welcome my guests and watch the show. Sighing, I headed down the big marble staircase to the Large throne room. Before I entered, from the corner of my eye I saw the dancers in their changing room rushing around trying to find things, I saw no red hair though which disappointed me.

From the other side of the door I heard the trumpets and then the voice of my father telling everyone that I had arrived. The big doors opened and I stepped out. People gasped when they saw my full face uncovered by the mask. I stepped forwards and sat on my throne as the guests took their place and the show started. The first dance was very slow and everyone danced solo, the girls wearing long dresses, some white, some black. The boys wearing shirts and trousers in the same colours (YouTube- contemporary group dance week 5 season 10 so you think you can dance, Zoey is the girl in the white and is wearing a brown wig) when the performance finished everyone clapped loudly and the performers bowed. There was a small break before the curtains opened again revealing a much happier atmosphere (YouTube-Professional Latin show dance DWTS season 15, Zoey is not in this one and the first girl you see is Coco)

Everyone was up and dancing by the end of the dance, including me and my parents. Suddenly all the lights went out and lit up a large square area in the centre of the floor.

Zoey's POV

I watched as the area went dark and the light shone before making my entrance. Walking forward on the tips of my toes I made my way to the corner of the square. My costume was orange with purple jewels and my ribbon was red. They were my three favourite colours. The music stated. I began (YouTube- Anna bessonova incredible ribbon)
