It was the start of another royal ball. The night was just getting started, the sun setting in the horizon without a cloud blocking the view. Many noble and royal families were attending, all mingling with each other.

Eclipse leaned against the ballroom wall, watching the crowds of nobles wander about the room and chat. His frown deepened as he caught a few wary glances his way. He knew it was a bad idea to be here, but he had let his sister, Earth, pressure him into going.

"Maybe I can trick some ditzy royal into helping me. There has to be at least one person here who's pathetic and desperate enough to not question my motives," he mumbled to himself, scanning the crowd for a good target.
