Soundless Voice/ Donkov Mansion/ Anual ball

Luka danced into the family ballroom, giggling. Sure nothing had begun yet but he was excited. The young Donkov Family Earl was dressed in a navy blue suit jacket, matching dress pants, black dress boots, a wite ruffled shirt, a big blue bow rested on his neck, and a small navy top hat rested atop his head.

"Nikolai, you did a great job decorating, it ooks absolutely wonderful!" luka managed through his gleeful giggles. the room was adourned with floating candles, charmed so the flame would not ignite anything. pale blue drapes hung around the room.

Nikolai bows to his master with a smile "i do my best your highness." the tall thin butler was dressed in his uniform, a black tailcoat, a white dress shirt, black bowtie, black dress pants, black shoes. His glasses were connected to a chaine and sat low on his nose. His waist-length black hair was teid back in a long pony tail. "your guests should be arriving shortly."

OUTFIT

Kait flashed an invitation towards the Butler, that she had stole from somebody. Who, she had no idea but Kait was interested about going to her first ball.

The Greek had stole some money from her mother, to buy this outfit. At first, Kait was a bit hesitant about wearing a skirt, the last time she wore one... well, that was never.

Loving her shoes though, Kait walked in the house with confidence. If anybody wanted to yell at her for her outfit, they can go take their complaints to where the sun doesn't shine.

"I am guessing you are the host to this party?" Kait asked, as she walked up to the boy. He looked like a first year.

Luka laughs a little and nods.

"yup! im luka donkov! and thats mybutler nikolai. hes mine becuase my papas not fond of anything having to do with muggles or muggleborns, but niko is my best friend." luka smiles fondly at the butler "welcome to our home! please make yourself comfortable."

Blinking for a second, Kait wondered if she should politely leave, rudely leave, or wait for some interesting guests. Deciding on the latter, Kait smiled at him. He was far too cheerful for her taste. "At least you aint' like those pureblood idiots. I hope your father does not mind a half blood, and if he cares, oh well." Shrugging, Kait sat down on a couch.

"hes indifferent to half bloods.... im glad i got to keep nikolai though. i dont know what id do without him. hes rather helpful, i just wish i could take him with me to school and stuff, he could protect me there." the young boy giggles scrambling up onto his butlers shoulders "hesmore like my big brother than my butler, but papa wont let me call him that in public."

Valentina walked exitedly over to the house, her brother in tow. She could tell Yefrem was far from happy about having to come. He sulked the whole way there. Valentina had worked out that the reason was that her brother was just too protective.

She showed the invite, and pulled Yefrem in. Valentina looked exitedly around. The little blonde smiled when she saw Luka. She ran over and hugged him.

"Hi," Valentina smiled, "thank you for the invite."

OUTFIT

uka giggles and returns his friends hug.

"why wouldnt i? this is an elite party, mostly for grownups. I would want my one school friend here. It gets lonely sometimes only having My sister, Nikolai and the other servants to converse with. So this is your brother?" luka twitches his nose slightly at the older boys smell. It was strong and threatening. He didnt like it. Nikolai had a smell that was strong, yet comforting and made luka feel safe. Valentina smelled like floers. His sister smelled of perfume that made him slightly dizzy when she wore too much. He liked all of those smells, but yefrems made Luka quite uncomfortable to say the least.

Smiling at Luka, Kait looked at the next guest. She looked around the host's age, and they seemed to know each other. Getting up, Kait walked towards the girl. For the first time, Kait saw a boy who looked like the guests brother.

"I am Kaitlen, Kaitlen Grayson," Kait introduced herself, grinning. Stuffing down the urge to find some alcohol.

Katerina scowled as she walked up the steps to the Donkov mansion, not wanting to be there at all. She knew she should have never let her grandmother read that owl, she should have known she would have wanted her to go.

"What you got there, Katya?" grandmother Isidora had asked during breakfast one of the previous days, "I thought school owls only came later, at the end of summer."

The girl had looked at the invite and shrugged, muttering, "Donkov? Who the hell is Donkov?"

"Watch your mouth, girl," the elder woman had warned her and reached out her hand for the letter, "May I?" She nodded and handed the invite to her grandmother, listening as Isidora read it outloud. "Oh Kat, you're invited to a ball!" The girl pulled a face and tried to convince her grandmother, but Babcia Isidora had her mind set. She was to go to this ball and meet new people- and how could she deny her grandmother's wish?

"I should have argued more," Katerina muttered as she walked in the house, thinking about how much she'd rather have been at home, reading a good book, instead of walking uncomfortably on these heels, worried she'd trip. Ugh, heels. Why do they even exist?, she thought, tugging at her new dress. The earrings, the shoes, the bag. . . they were all her grandmother's old - but still not old - things. Isidora had given her money, though, to buy a new dress, and the Hitrost had chosen the first one she liked, not really a fan of shopping for hours and hours.

After showing the butler her invite, the girl walked in the room and was impressed by the decoration and everything there. She had never been to a house that beautiful before. Granted, she had never been to a pureblood's house. Deciding she had to be polite, or her grandmother would positively kill her when she got home and told the story, she made her way to a young boy, who she believed was Luka Donkov.

"Umm, hello," Katerina said, rather awkwardly, "I wanted to thank you for the invite. I'm Katerina Kahnovich."

OUTFIT!

Luka turned,two new smells hitting him in the face. They were pleasant. He turned seeing the two new guest, waving gleefully.

"hello everyone! my papas guests still have to arive and some of my own and then everything shall commence."

Hearing a familiar voice, Kait looked towards the direction of the voice. "Hmm, I am a half-blood, already asked the host if his father would mind. Oh, and don't tell anyone, but I stole an invitation to get here." Kait muttered back, flashing a subtle grin at Anya.

Looking around, she saw the rest of the Tesla's family, which was such a wonderful sight. Then she saw another girl, Katerina by the sound of it, and waved at her.

Tessa was excited to be going to another ball. And Afonka was going to be there with her. They made her to get Ariel a new color. That way she could feel special that she was dressed up just a little bit. And this was time that she was going to get to spend time with Afonka.

Ariel led her into the house. Looking around she knew that it had to be beautiful.

Lora sighed to herself as she made her way to the entrance of the mansion and showed her invitation to the guard. Her mother had managed to get an invite, which wasn't that hard considering they were purebloods. It sometimes did get hard for her mother, since there was no man to manage the family, but for what it was worth, she made sure her daughter was well taken care off.

She asked for directions and walked to the ball room, and was momentarily amazed by the size and intricate designs. It was truly a beautiful room. She looked around for Luka and smiled when she spotted him.

"Hey Luka, thank you for the invite," she said as she walked to the boy and gave him a hug. "I really love the room as well. Um...I'm just going to get something to drink." With that, she went over to the drinks table and got herself a glass of Butterbeer, just merely observing the people. She was still sort of depressed and didn't fully come out of her shell and wasn't in the mood to ruin someone else's night.

OUTFIT!

Pulling on his tie, Afonka glanced around. He'd just saw Tessa two seconds ago, so where was she? Wha - what if - biting his lip, he mentally slapped himself.

He hadn't done anything wrong. So they wouldn't kidnap her. Nodding, he sighed softly, continuing to scan through the crowds for her.

Finally finding her, Afonka grinned. Merlin, she was beautiful. Heading towards her, he smiled at both her and Ariel, "Hey," he said softly.

Outfit.

Luka waves at the new comers with a bright grin.

"hi everyone! im glad you all came. this is sure going to be fun." looking around he sighs. thes parties always bored the young earl to death. He glances at the stares to see if Papawas comming yet. He wasnt.

Tessa was standing there with Ariel. This was a dress that Lena helped her pick out before she left for Hogwarts. They bought it just in case there was a ball or dance before she got back. She hadn't seen Afonka yet and was a little worried that he wouldn't show up.

She smiled as she heard Afonka. That meant that he was here. “ Hello.”

Raising her eyebrows at Anya, Kait sighed. "I wonder what will happen when I am the daughter of a famous dark wizard..." Kait replied, not knowing entirely for sure if Anya knew that. "But yes, I will say I am a pure blood."

When Anya started hyperventilating, to say Kait wasn't amused would be a lie. "You look fine Anya. But you will look better if you calm down. Don't force me to pour alcohol down your throat," Kait threatened.

Then she saw Lora, and pulled Anya over the girl. Almost tripping in her spiked heels more than once, The red head tackled Lora. "WHY HELLO!" Kait shouted happily.

Lora plastered a grin on her face as she turned to face her best friend. "Hey, what on earth are you doing at a ball?" She asked teasingly, attempting a grin. "For what it's worth, you look pretty," she complimented.

"Ah, meeting of the devils huh?" She smiled as she saw Anya as well and hugged both the Hrabrosts. "Are you guys having fun?"

Grinning at her, he kneeled down to pat Ariel. "You look beautiful." Afonka told her, blushing softly as he straigtened up, nodding.

"You - you really do."

Tessa was smiling as Ariel was next to her. She knew that Afonka would kneel down and pet Ariel. He then was telling her how beautiful she looked tonight. She could tell that he was still blushing. After all the time they had been dating he would still blush.

" Thank you Afonka."

Yefrem was being pulled miserably along by his younger sister. He wasn't keen on the idea of some boring ball, but when Rosetta said that his mother had even owled them to make sure he went.

The boy trailed after, sulking. The three walked in, and he heard Rosetta hiss. "Now try to act civil, fanciullo!" Yefrem merely nodded at his nanny. She gave him a disbelieving look.

When Valentina hugged the boy that he guessed was the host, Yefrem made an irritated noise, but tried to ignore it and looked around at the other guests. There were not many faces he recognized.

"Yeah, I am," he said, slightly more pleastantly than he felt. Yefrem grudgingly extended his hand to the boy. "I'm Yefrem."

Rosetta nodded at him. Not bad, she mouthed. Yefrem rolled his eyes, stuck his hands in his trouser pockets and stood there, glancing around the room.

Salvana could not believe her luck getting the job that she had been offered. Sh had been a maid for many families but none as prestigious as this family.

She had ran into a old friend from school, Niko and he told me that the people he worked for were looking for someone to help out the girl of the house. Salvana wanted to do anything she could do to help, that's what she lived for.

Salvana knew there was a big party going on tonight and it would be the first party she had done in quite awhile. She put on her perfect little maid number and went into the kitchen to get a try full of drinks so she could make her way through the party.

Walking out to where the party was she made it through the people offering drinks to everyone. She was still a little shy but she was learning to hold it together very well. She did catch herself looking for Niko every once in awhile to make sure he was still within sight distance. They had become very close again since she started working here.

Firoza walked in, flashing an Invitation she'd fabricated off what she'd seen before, to the butler. She pulled it away before he could check it properly, and continued on. He probably wouldn't have recognized her anyways. She'd grown her hair out to be long and extremely curly, changing her eye color to an ashy grey and raising her cheekbones just a smidge.
Wearing a blood-colored red dress that went to about knee-height, strapless with black fingerless gloves that traveled to about mid-forearm, she couldn't help but snicker at the trick. With any luck Luka and Nikolai would find out too late that she was Firoza... which reminded her, she needed a "cover-up" name. What about... Lily Anders? No, too girly. She snapped her fingers, getting an idea. "Candy Bloodwood", maybe that'd fool them.
She hunched against a pillar to observe the party and make her next move.



(OCC: In case you did not guess, Firoza is a metamorphagus. Also, the picture is the same celebrity though.)
