Belladonna gasped quickly. "Are you sure she's not gonna ban me from you forever if we prank her?" Buttons thought back to the rumors that she heard about the queen and looked to Annie with a worried expression.

"Nonsense! My mum is like the NICEST mum ever!" Annie dragged Buttons towards the door and down the hallway.

Buttons grumbled incoherent things as she got dragged away. Even though they had been friends since practically forever, she had never really got to see the king and queen, probably because she was afraid of being recognised or worse, but she sighed, knowing that she trusted Annie completely.

Annie crouched outside of the throne room doors and pulled Buttons down next to her... "So what's the plan Buttons Old Pal?"

Amara snuck up on them "whatcha doing?" She asked casually.

"W....What?" Andromeda asked twirling around to come face to face with Amara. "Nothing, w...why would you think we were doing anything?"

Envy~
Envy walked around on the streets of the lower class, each step she took she kicked up a bit of dust. She was looking for something, but she didn't know what yet. "Hope? Where is the castle?" Envy asked, remembering what she wanted. Hope just took a sharp breath and pointed with her tail to the huge, beautiful, castle that stood a few meters in front of them.

Hope~
Hope was a bit worried, but she didn't want to show her sister that. "Envy? Do we have to ask to be soldiers?" she said in a shaky voice as they approached the castle. "Of course." Envy replied confidently. Hope sighed and padded a bit slower to the castle. "If one of us dies in battle, their other can own the house and everything we own," Hope said in a voice that sounded worried, "cause dying is a big possibility."
"Hope! Don't say things like that!" Envy said after swatting Hope's ear. "Now let's go and see if we can talk to someone!"

Aria walked through the streets heading for the castle, to report the recent mission failure to the king and as she was walking she spotted two puffadores walking the same way as her. Glancing across at them curiously she shook off the thought, maybe they were going somewhere else. Aria continued towards the castle.

Envy~
Quickly leaving her sister behind, she bounded up to Aria. "Hi!" Envy said excitedly, ignoring the fact that she had just ran a long way and should be out of breath. "Your Aria, aren't you? Me and my sister are here about join the group! Well, if she ever gets here...."

Hope~
Hope trotted up to them panting. "Why'd you have to run Envy?" she said , out of breath, "Oh! Hi Aria!"

Aria practically jumped out of her skin as she heard someone yell her name, she turned to look and saw the two puffadores from before. "Yeah... I'm Aria." She said, a blank look on her face."So you're going to the palace to then?" She asked. Then she continued walking expecting them to follow her.
