"FLORA!" Griselda yelled. The voice made everyone stop and stare at Flora.

Flora did the only thing she could think of at the moment. She fainted dead away in Palladium's arms.
OOC: too short, too short

"Oh for pity's sake,"Griselda mumbled. "Ophelia!" Ophelia, the nurse, walked over and hissed: "What do you think you're doing? Why cause a scene?" Ignoring her (and looking out for herself), she replied, "Please escort Flora over here to either your office or her dorm." Ophelia had to do so, because Griselda was higher than her (in school rank). But as she carried Flora away, she knew just what Ms. G was up to, and made a silent wish that things would turn in Flora's favor.
"May I cut in and have this dance?"Griselda asked with a sly grin.
(OOC: I played Ophelia and showed her point of view a bit, I know.)

Palladium looked at Griselda, his face still frozen in shock. Finally managing to get ahold of himself, Palladium switched his gaze to Flora being carried away and almost started to follow Ophelia to find out whether she would be okay. But realizing how inappropriate it would probably appear given how Griselda had caught Flora in his arms, Palladium briefly closed his eyes and then plastered an overly bright smile on his face before answering, "I'd be honored to dance."

Timmy watched the scene with growing curiosity. He always found it somehow cute to watch adults behaving like young people again.
He and Tecna were still in the middle of the empty floor. Gradually the dancers returned to their revelry after Griselda's intrusion on the night's event. He was about to continue the journey toward Sky and the others when a pair of spotlights appeared and began sweeping across the floor. One of them sought out and found Griselda and Palladium, while the other began sweeping toward he and Tecna.
"Oh man," he muttered under his breath as the circle of light swept toward him.

Whoops, time to get back to work. Christine had to quickly race through her memories to find a song for this moment. Oi. What a mess.
"Please, don't let this feeling end, It's ev'rything I am, Ev'rything I wanna be; I can see what's mine now, Finding out what's true, Since I've found you Lookin' through the eyes of love Now I can take the time, I can see my life As it comes on shining now; Reachin' out to touch you, I can feel so much, Since I've found you Lookin' through the eyes of love. And now I do believe, That even in a storm, we'll find some light; Knowin' you're beside me, I'm alright. Please, don't let this feelin' end, It might not come again; And I want to remember How it feels to touch you; How I feel so much, Since I've found you Lookin' through the eyes of love."

Griselda felt Flora and Palladium had been much too close for comfort. He's a teacher, she's a student. she thought, I'll just pass a rule to teach that girl her place. And heaven knows I've got something she doesn't have. The dance was turning slower. Pure brash confidence.
"So, I trust you heard the news. To this day it's talked about." No response. "I'm a record-breaker. First female gold medalist black belt in Magix Olympics." With a self-satisfied smirk, she added, "Speciality in Martial Arts." The thought crossed her mind to do something outlandish such as dip him, but she had a dignity to uphold. What is the matter with you, woman?! Last year you couldn't give a damn what he was doing! she scolded herself. Outwardly, she countinued to "show off."

Palladium groaned inwardly when he realized the dance had turned slow. Feeling Griselda's grip tightening on him, he struggled to keep himself from throwing her off him - although, as strong as she was he dryly wondered if he would even be able to.
Just a few more minutes. And then I can excuse myself and . . . no. No, you're not going to check up on Flora. It's not appropriate. And Griselda is probably getting suspicious. But Griselda shouldn't catch on because there shouldn't be anything to catch on to. Flora is my student. My student. Whatever I thought could happen can't. It just can't.
Shaking himself away from thoughts of her, Palladium vaguely heard Griselda's voice droning on about some record or another. Glancing at the clock on the opposite wall, Palladium mentally began ticking off the minutes until the end of the song.
And then suddenly the song ended. Frowning, Palladium realized he must have miscalculated the time, but then smiled because he was free. Quickly disentangling himself from Griselda's arms, he excused himself and hurriedly left the dining hall.

'Quick, think of something,' Christine mentally commanded herself. She saw Timmy glance in her direction and she silently hopped the little hamster would fall off it's wheel before it allowed him to put two and two together. That would be so not good for her.
"You know our love was meant to be The kind of love that lasts forever And I need you here with me From tonight until the end of time You should know, everywhere I go You're always on my mind, in my heart In my soul You're the meaning in my life You're the inspiration You bring feeling to my life You're the inspiration Wanna have you near me I wanna have you hear me sayin' No one needs you more than I need you
And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see We're so in love when we're together And I know that I need you here with me From tonight until the end of time You should know, everywhere I go You're always on my mind, in my heart In my soul You're the meaning in my life You're the inspiration You bring feeling to my life You're the inspiration Wanna have you near me I wanna have you hear me sayin' No one needs you more than I need you."
She hummed softly and slid into another song.
"Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you By now you should have somehow realised what you've got to do I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now. Backbeat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt. I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now.
And all the roads we have to walk along were winding And all the lights that lead us there are blinding There are so many things that I would like to say to you But I don't know how. Because maybe, You're gonna be the one that saves me? But after all You're my wonderwall.
Today was gonna be the day but they'll never throw it back to you By now you should have somehow realised what you're not to do I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now. And all the roads that lead to you were winding And all the lights that light the way are blinding There are so many things that I would like to say to you But I don't know how.
I said, maybe You're gonna be the one that saves me? But after all You're my wonderwall You're my wonderwall You're my wonderwall Said maybe You're gonna be the one that saves me You're gonna be the one that saves me You're gonna be the one that saves me You're gonna be the one that saves me..."

*The escape plot is working, now all I have to do is to get out of the court yard. * thought Tashii. Wandering her way through the yard over to the gates. Taking one last look around she leaves the yard and enters one of the wings and up to the oberitory.
The music faintly floats up to her, wrapping her arms around her self she starts to sway softly to the music. Lost in the music she does not hear any one enter until a voice called.....

Mileva smiled at the raven-haired girl with funky hair who talked to her. "Hello Musa, I'm Mileva. To be honest, I'm not that comfortable right now. I don't know a lot of people, and there's not a lot happening." She stared at all the couples on the floor. "There's nice music, but I don't dare to dance." She honestly admitted. ''Hi, Mileva.''Said Musa, friendly. ''I'm a bit bored around here... Everyone else seems to be busy or having fun...'' Musa sighed. Then, she found herself staring at Flora, as Griselda called her. ''I wonder for what she called Flora for?''

Christine was getting tired and silently slipped off the stage to get a breath of fresh air. Heaven knew she needed it, that and a stiff drink. She had been singing pretty much the entire night and needed a break.
Silently she hoped Sky, Brandon or Timmy wouldn't recognize their teammate under all the feminine makeup, wig and gown. That would cause too much trouble for her. But she did hope one would notice her and at least be a gentleman and give her a drink. She sighed quietly, almost sadly.
So lost in thought that she wasn't paying attention and she bumped into one of her male classmates. "Oh," she breathed in a startled whisper. "I'm sorry," she quickly apologized, her cheeks a rich crimson.
She looked demurely down. "I'm Celise, you are?" she asked ever so politely. Her stage name would work for the time being.

Bloom watched the unfolding scene with interest. She felt sorry for her friend and hoped that Flora would be alright but she remembered that Flora was smart and could handle herself so she would be okay. Bloom looked around for the rest of her freinds and saw Musa talking to a new girl with interesting green hair. She saw Sky talking to his freinds and walked over to him.

''Hi, Mileva.''Said Musa, friendly. ''I'm a bit bored around here... Everyone else seems to be busy or having fun...'' Musa sighed. Then, she found herself staring at Flora, as Griselda called her. ''I wonder for what she called Flora for?'' "Ooh, that was weird." Mileva stared at the now odd couple on the floor, after Flora had been dragged away unconscious. (OOC: Hmm, got nothing much to say. XP)
