Alpha being caught off guard, is greeted by a maw of scary teeth and evil words.
"Do Ducks rip tracheae out of ugly horned humans in this world? If they don’t they sure as hell do now." Merdavi looked around confused at people after Giegue pointed at buggy.
Alpha laid there and giggled at the confused Merdavi. He lifted his head and kissed Merdavi on the nose. "Hehe, you're too big to be a duck silly." Being suddenly kissed, Merdavi let lose his grip on Alpha's shoulders and was easily pushed away. Alpha grabbed another bottle of wine off of the table as he stood up and chugged. He spun around and looked at Merdavi still standing in shock.
"I dun know if ducks tracheae for humans, But I'm no human." He said and stared to walk back to Giegue. He looked and saw Giegue didn't have his cupcake anymore. "Aww, sweet thing lost my sweets." Near Giegue, A beautiful lady in blue was standing with her hand to her chest. Alpha drank another chug of wine and giggled.
"Which of you stunning ladies will be joining me at the hotel then? I'd be a very filling ending to a nice night like this, hehe."
Haloe frowned slightly at how bothered Buggy seemed to be. Had she done something wrong? She was never good at this stuff.
Upon being abruptly lead to the dance floor, the duo began to dance. Haloe caught Buggy's stare into her eye(s) to which she responded by blushing and looking at her feet. Biting her lip, she looked back up just in time to see him grinning widely-- for all but a hot second.
Suddenly, she felt the tiny elf thrust her high into the air. All she could let out was a squeak out of astonishment.
"How's the view from up there?"
Buggy called to her, but she didn't necessarily have time to respond as gravity forced her back down to the ground. Bracing herself for impact, she attempted to hold down her dress hoping to conceal herself so that she wouldn't fall onto the ground half naked.
Before she hit the ground, however, she felt Buggy quickly wrap his arms around her thighs in attempt to catch her. But due to physic's law of "Things in motion stay in motion", the impact caused Buggy to fall back onto the ground and her landing roughly on her arm a couple feet away.
Buggy seemed to have passed out instantly as his head met the ground. Haloe however, groaned and sat back up. Her small little hair bun had come undone, and her corsage began to fall apart. She instinctively grabbed her arm out of pain as a bruise began to form on her shoulder.
She whimpered and looked around in a confused daze, before allowing herself to focus on a figure forming in front of her. She couldn't really hear what it was saying.
"Wha- huh?" She looked up and saw a man reach his hand out to her. She assumed he asked if she was alright.
"No, um, I'm fine! Don't worry about me," she laughed out nervously, bringing herself to her feet. She didn't mean to ignore his helpful gesture, it was just uncommon for her. She turned to thank the man for his concern, but was cut off suddenly by seeing his face clearly.
Why, it was that murderous elf from the Yule Ball! The one that stabbed the incubus almost to death. Well, he wasn't really murderous considering the incubus himself was the ACTUAL violent sociopath, but it was still an awkward situation that she didn't enjoy remembering.
"I-" she was cut off by a butler tapping her on her shoulder with a note. Switching partners? No, she hadn't heard of that. Written on the letter was the name "Zhyhal", with the picture of the man in front of her on it. She looked back up at him.
"Oh! We're partners!" She exclaimed. "Hello, I don't think we've met. I'm Haloe!" She held out her hand, just as a loud crash emerged from the other side of the room. It involved an Ogre and a very loud, very angry elf.
The elf began to attack the Ogre. She frowned at the scene as she entertained the thought that all elves had anger issues.
