Ch.17: Saudi Arabian Royal Ball
The party of six soon arrived at the royal palace where an enormous royal ball was being held at. Their SUV pulled up to the gold carpet where two attendants in tuxedos were awaiting to open the suicide doors of the SUV. The prince's attendants got out first followed by the prince. He worn formal royalty clothes of gold, tan, platinum, and purple. The prince help out Skye whom wearing a slick white, gold, and purple full length dress. She had a golden, platinum, purple fennec fox styled mask on. Skye's own attendant worn a platinum and purple full length slick dress along with similar coloration fox mask. The onlookers from the barricades wowed at the trio. The five then joined inside the palace. The foyer itself was already full of vibrant colors from entrepreneurs and investors to military generals in uniforms.
"Miladies, you shall wait till you two see the ballroom that we be passing through to our own little ball." the prince wink at the pair of gals.
"I seen better and actually prefer smaller balls anyways." Skye remarked.
"Glad to hear that my Luna." the prince tried to steal a kiss from Skye. She quickly turned away from his grip, fixing back her mask. After they made their way through the crowd to the private ball, the five then split. The prince and Skye went one side and Skye's attendant and one of the prince's attendants went to the other side. On cue with the music, both pairs along with four other pairs begun dancing.

The private ball died down some as everyone started swapping to half masks and begun eating. Skye still wearing her full mask however. Skye refraining herself from diving into the different kinds of meats and chose to only eat a little bit here and there. She however had some food boxed up to be delivery to the villa to be eaten later. Another gal soon joined her at the table, also wearing a full fox mask.
"You must be Ms. Luna?" the girl asked.
"Yes ma'am I am. You are...?" Skye answered back.
"Lets just say, I am in love with your prince and hope you do not mind switching masks?" the girl slid a slip of pamphlet to Skye. Skye eyeing her then slid the pamphlet down her heels. She then look at her attendant.
"May I be excuse, need to you know...?" Skye nodding the other girl.
"Yes you may, make it quick though. Music about to begin again I am afraid..." Skye's attendant sighing at the thought of dancing with heels on again. Both the girl and Skye went outside the ballroom to the restrooms. The prince sending an attendant after them however. Both girls sighed once they reached the restroom, both kicking the attendant away.
"Jeez, like freakin puppies..." the girl said removing her mask.
"I normally just look at puppies and they just whine and run away...." Skye removing her own mask.
"Shoot, you actually cute for a foreigner." the girl said.
"Shit, my own boyfriend already cannot stay away from my charms." Skye laughed.
"Anyways before 'our' attendant gets curious, here's my mask. Last stall, side panel. Tap and it should come lose. Follow the map to get your gear then your own party be awaitin. Thanks Luna, or should I say, Skye for dealing with my husband for a couple of days." the girl hugged Skye.
