"Oh my gosh, I am so late," I shriek, as I pull on my flats. Luckily, I don't have to resort to any muggle ways of transportation, such as cars and *shudders* walking. I concentrate on Jubilee's mansion, and Apparate onto the front lawn. I'm faced with a beautiful palacial building. It has vines creeping up the white marble collumns, a gorgeous garden, and two inviting French doors with crystalline windows. I hurry up the marble steps and into the ballroom.

As my shyness kicks in, I'm relieved to see some familiar faces. Among the crowd already in the ballroom are Hawthorne, Mistia, Lupa, and a lot of other CBers. I place my sacred offering of sushi and mochi on the food table and hurry to join them.

CRAP!!! I'm sooooo late! eh whatever. "Assitants bring the cake in!" I pace around looking for someone to talk to. Ummmm.... I'll just dance. I hear the song ride come on and I dance like no ones watching! (everyone's watching!) The song ends and I wipe the sweat off my face. "ANYONE WANT SOME CAKE?" I yell. Everyone dashes over to the cake. hmmm... I should've brought a 10 ft tall cake. I get some punch, and jug it down. Then I go over to talk to some people.

(i forgot to tell you guys, my names Kathrine! not Kalin, im so so so so so so sorry. anway, i don't really care)

I welcom Lumi in and walk back over to RR, D, HT, swaying to a midum fast song. Lumi starts talking and suddenly were all in a circle of gossip. "... i wonder if anyone is gonna ask one of us to dance..." says Dolphin. "yep. is totaly gonna aqward tho, since like, a friend could ask you XD." i reply. more people come streaming thru the doors as the DJ strikes up a new song, wich we all start swaying too.  i remember the lyrics and start shouting along "BOOM, CLAP, THE SOUND OF MAH HEART, AND THE BEAT GOES ON AND ON AND ON AND ON ON!" Dolphing, Raining Rainbows, and Hawthorne join in, and then were all laghing and bouncing around. 

Best. Night. EVER. 

Im excited :3

H E R O E S -

I throw open the bathroom door and grab Starlight's arm.
"IM BRUSHING MY TEEEEEEEEE-" she screams as I tug her down the hall.
"DontcareneedyourhelphowdoIbraidmyownhair?" I say, sitting her down in an overstuffed chair.
"I have no idea. Your room is nice..." Starlight trails off. I groan and open the door for her. 

Seriously, braiding? Do you have to be this hard? I look at my tangled hair and shrug. Ill just- 

Several attempts later I have my hair in two buns. I mean, some of in it is in buns. The rest is, uh, still down and tangled. 

Oh well.

I run downstairs and grab my large canvas bag. Cookies? check. Pencils? check. Okay, I think Im ready.
"Where are you going? The party starts at six." I whirl around to see Felix, paintbrush in hand, staring at me with a confused look.
Of course it does... I shrug and pretend it was all part of the plan.
"I, uh, have somewhere to go thats on the way. Make sure Pine doesnt tease Starlight too much and dont let Tomru have more then three cookies, okay? Oh- theres food in the fridge, Scrabble should go out twice, and be-careful-theres-a-leak-in-the-attic!" I warn, already out the door.
"You told me that all five times!" Felix calls. I wave and shut the door. Now to fly... 
I still havent mastered the art of flying, but Im getting there. It would be much easier with wings but w h a t e v e r...

I fly over the forest and do a couple laps over the Big Tree. Time flies (haha) and soon I start toward Julibee's mansion.  

I land in front of the building, stumbling and bit and nearly tripping over Quill. 
"Uh, hi!" I say awkwardly. Quill greets me with a cheery smile and we start talking about who we think will come.

Then Fidelity shows up, panting.
"You guys ready to go in?" she asks. I nod. Quill pushes open the doors and we walk in. theres a couple other CBers milling around, a large snack table (yay) and several doors leading to different rooms. I dump the tupperware of cookies onto the snack table and turn to Quill and Fidelity.
"Wanna dance?" Quill asks. I smile brightly.
"Sure!" 

Bean insisted on driving me over ten minutes early, which I suppose was good. I step out of the car and wave goodbye.

"Be safe!" she says, rolling the window down. "Call me when the ball's over so I can come pick you up. Have fun!"

"I will!" I promise, and she drives away. I smooth out my dress and decide to wait for Heroes and Fidelity outside. After a few minutes, I see a dark shape gliding- well, wobbling- through the sky. As it comes closer, I see that it's Heroes. She lands and stumbles, but catches herself.

"Uh, hi!" she says.

"Hi!" I say, smiling excitedly. "This is going to be so much fun!"

"Who do you think will be there?" she asks, and we discuss this for a few more minutes before Fidelity appears. She seems out of breath, like she's been running.

"Hey guys!" she says. "Are you ready to go in?" Heroes nods, and I open the doors.

We enter the ballroom and find that there are several other CBers already there. It's large, ornate, and beautiful. Heroes leads the way to the snack table, where she places her cookies.

I set down my plate of cream puffs, then ask, "Wanna dance?"

"Sure!" Heroes responds, and Fidelity nods agreement. We all walk out onto the dance floor as an upbeat song starts. I grab my two friends' hands and spin them around, laughing. I notice that more CBers have begun to arrive, and the dance floor is beginning to fill up.

"This is great!" I say, beaming. 

Don't be so nervous, I tell myself. Dancing is not that scary.

Okay, it is, actually, that scary. So instead I head over to the food, because food is always welcome. The table is piled high with cakes, brownies, cookies, pies...it's honestly just a dessert table at this point. After eating a few cookies to calm my nerves, I decide to go over and talk to everyone.

I hop off my bike and park it in front of Jubilee's mansion, then hit the button on my helmet that turns it into a brown fedora. After smoothing out my pantsuit, I take in the scene. The mansion is beautiful, with great landscaping, and CBers are pouring through the doors. I grin and run up the front steps and straight through the massive doors. I drop the plate of muffins I brought on a nearby snack table and run to the dance floor, where a bunch of other CBers are enjoying themselves. I start to dance and probably look really stupid, but I don't care. I'm having tons of fun, and that's what matters!

The ballroom has begun to fill up as more people arrive, and I'm now surrounded by partying CBers, some I know and some I don't.  I dip a strawberry in the chocolate fountain as I watch Heroes, Fidelity, and Quill dance.  They look like they're having a blast, I think.  How come I'm the only one who feels akward?  Glancing at my chocolate-covered fingers, an idea pops into my head.  A crazy one, for sure, but gaurenteed to make this less akward.  I run my fingers across my cheeks, creating streaks of chocolate war paint.  Maybe this can be like home. "CHOCOLATE FIGHT!!" I yell.  Soon both the floor and my dress are covered in the stuff, but I'm laughing too hard to care.  This night is turning out good after all.

I’m late. I rush in with Yi, Cairi and Quelle, just to see QueenOfWolves throwing chocolate! 

Ugh, I thought this would be nice, Cairi moans. Chocolate just got on her dress. She, Quelle, and I escape to the bathroom. It appears that Yi is throwing chocolate. "Uh, you guys, I'm actually glad we're on here, because... I... um, can't dance," I whisper to my AEs. I can teach you! 

I’ll help!

So, this post ends in me learning how to dance... in a bathroom. 

I dramatically spin into the ballroom, prepared to make a big speech filled with thank yous and who knows what. But the manical ingenuity of CBers throws a fork in my plans. I'm greeted by a huge. Ginormous. CHOCOLATE FIGHT. I NEED to participate. I arm myself with a few strawberries and cups of chocolate. I whirl around and smack the closest CBer in the face with some of the stuff.  It was Kat. She gasps and licks her lips. A devious smile spreads across her face. Oh dear. I attempt to run but shhe is wayyy to fast. What does she do all day, cross country? Ugh. Soon she catches up and wipes her cup of chocolate all over my face. I grin. She calls out, "JUBILEE IS HERE! AND I JUST DEFEATED HER!

I watch Jubilee enter the ballroom as chocolate flies by my face. I feel like I should talk to someone, but during a chocolate fight doesn't seem like the right time. I glance around nonetheless, trying to find someone who isn't throwing chocolate or stawberries. I take a step towards the corner of the room only to slip and find myself sprawled on the floor, now covered in chocolate.

Not only am I late, but I just walked into a ball with flying chocolate.

This is worse than my 10th birthday when my friend tried to put frosting in everyone's hair.

I scream as a glob of caramel-covered chocolate flies towards me. I am not getting that in my hair. I refuse.

"Jubilee? WHAT is going on here?" I ask, my voice strangely high-pitched, and then a ball of chocolate hits me square in the face. "Please say you have a shower!" I yell as I grab more chocolate and throw it at the perpetrator, who turned out to be Lupa.

Why am I not surprised?

I can't stop laughing and I feel just like at my class party in Kindergarten when everything was awesome. Oof, Luminescence. Did you really just reference the Lego Movie? Great job. I can see Hawthorne looking covered in chocolate and kind of awkward so I walk over. "It's easier just to go with it," I advise, giggling.

"D'you want to form an alliance, by the way? I know alliances are never allowed in tag, but it isn't tag so I think it's okay..." I trail off, blushing under the chocolate on my face.
