Side note: The staff in the palace will eat leftovers and food of lesser quality from royalty's table.

Irwin

Irwin didn't twitch or move. His whole life he had been a spineless tentacool. But this, by far was the bravest thing he had ever done. Currently his life hung in the balance. Hannah sighed. "Just go do your job. All of you and leave me and Gary alone" With that Hannah slammed the door. Irwin let out a substantial amount of breath. Edward frowned and walked away. "Hey where do you think your going butler boy?" Ross shouted. "To do my job. I suggest you do the same" Edward broadened his shoulders and continued to walk. The bodyguards stood outside the door. "Don't expect to get so lucky next time Irwin" Hemley said polishing her gun.

"What do you mean Hemley?" Irwin turned.

"You got with your life and no teeth marks you just danced in the jaws of death my friend"

"What do you mean?"

Hemley sighed. "You insulted part of the monarchy Kevin you could have lost your life"

"Your bluffing" Irwin was completely oblivious to the fact that Hemley had used his first name.

"It's a criminal offense and you weren't even punished"

Irwin haden't even realised he just wanted to get his view across to Hannah.

"Hey it's not funny what you did today" Ross said between spoonfuls of soup left over from Sycamore's, Gary's and Hannah's table. "Meh I'm fine aren't I?" Irwin said he wasn't too fond of the soup.

"Yeah but you could have die-"

"I heard a yeah so I'm fine"

"Kevin these children have much more power than anyone is comfortable with"

"But it's so hard to be nice to someone younger than me especially when they cause us so much grief. And they don't treat us fairly. Barking orders at us like we're servants"

"Would you prefer this or the front line?"

This caught Irwin off guard.

Hannah

Hannah could still feel Hemley's slap on the back of her head. She scrolled through her pokedex filling information in where needs be. The two had been separated for the night. It buzzed. A derpy picture of N appeared on the screen. The picture was of him and his zorua pulling a stupid face. She answered it. "Sup"

"Hey Hannah congrats on your region getting an alliance"

"Thanks N are you ok? You usually never call"

"Well my father bought a nice place in Kalos and he said I can have a party so I thought if asking you, Gary, Steven and Silver. So can you come?"

"When and where?"

"Erm route seven at around eight next Saturday"

"I could do that"

"Nice"

"About how many people are coming?"

"…50"

Hannah almost gagged on air. "I didn't know you even knew fifty people to invite"

"Oh come on Hannah you don't have to be mean. A person of your status should be nicer"

"What does status have to do with personality?"

"Ah toche"

"I really hate you sometimes"

"Everyone does"

"So next Saturday, eight, a house on route seven"

"Yeah I'll stick a banner up outside so you know which house"

Hannah hung up. N always threw great parties. He was slightly older than Gary but not as old as Steven. And yet he always managed to bring alcohol. Then again N's father wasn't really bothered with him so sneaking in alcohol probably wasn't that hard. Hannah shuffled sluggishly towards the door. She tried the handle. Locked. Ross and Irwin saw the handle move but didn't say anything. She banged on the door. "Ross I know your there let me out"

"Sorry your highness if you need the toilet use your on suite"

"I don't need the bathroom"

"Then why do you want to be out. We were placed here to guard you at night because you can't trusted alone"

"Grr I need to see Gary so let me out"

"Can't you wait 'till morning?"

"No let me out"

Ross sighed Hannah was going to win either way. She unlocked the door. Hannah bolted out.

"What's so important it can't wait until morning your highness?" Irwin asked.

"None of your business you keep your nose out of matters that don't concern you"

Gary's room was conveniently next door. Hemley and Johans didn't even bother they just unlocked Gary's door. Hannah walked in and informed him about the party. Gary was on board since the word 'party' was mentioned. Hannah left after Gary was informed. Hemley's locked Gary's door. And Irwin locked her's. Hannah hated the walls that separated them.
