Xanadou Ball (Open MT)
OOC: This was concieved by Kurona, Tornar and I. And please just post your arrival, I hate announcments, and it makes the thread start up faster
IC:
President Hogart stood by the gate of the Democratic Ballroom, the place where President Jonathan Hasley held the elction ball several years ago. He hoped that this Xanadouien ball would help strengthen relations between every nation residing in Xanadou. Behind him a detachment of the 501st division fired their Enfield No.4s off into the air, before standing in a line perfectly diciplined, representing their brave division.
Hogart sighed and flattened some wrinkles on his tuxedo. 'I hope this dosn't go as bad as the 1st Cazelian ball...

The Slick Sports car rolled not too far, as the Estovakian Leader Drove himself, parking not to far, and swiftly yet stylishly made his way to the Democratic Ballroom. He looked at himself, as this was his first international celebration he has been to. He walked up the steps and saw another distiguished looking man and extended his hand and said, " Hello, I am Jason Soryu Sukhoi, President of Estovakia."
Tomoyo and Charles arrived at the Ball Room, greeting President Hogart.
"Thank you for throwing such an elaborate ball for the Region and all it's neighbors."
Charles would ironically see leaders and dignitaries of his home country. He rose from Commoner to Prince.
"Mr. Sukhoi, I'm Princess Tomoyo Weaver of Kurona. Thank you for coming to the Xanadou Ball."

Tomoyo bowed "Please excuse me." Tomoyo went about preparing to great any other guests that might arrive.

"It's the least we can do, especially saying the kind residents of Xanadou let us stay here during the hard times" He said, shaking their hands "It is an honor to be in the presence of such great leaders"

"James Hogart, President of Cazelia" He replied, shaking his hand "I've never met anyone from Estovakia"
"It's the least we can do, especially saying the kind residents of Xanadou let us stay here during the hard times" He said, shaking their hands "It is an honor to be in the presence of such great leaders""
"My husband and I are on the course to ensure Xanadou can be a haven."
"I'll be right back darling." Charles said.
"Going to check in on the children?"
"Right."
"If any of them are still awake give them a big hug and kiss for me."
"I will darling." He kissed his wife and left
"That's exellent" He said "We have already established a colony on the land the the Kemos discovered a couple months ago." He remarked, as ten Cazelian Marines in full combat dress, led by a Colonel-Commissar formed a line on each side of the path "Atten-SHUN!" Barked the Commissar, as the men went stiff, their M-16 rifles held out in front of them "AIM! READY! FIRE!" He roared, as the Marines fired their rifles off into the air four times in perfect cohesion

"How good for your nation. Colonies are great things."
"Yes, it is a good thing, since half of our original territory is foreign occupied"
The helicopter flew straight at the building, then suddenly swerved at the ground. It smashed, leaving a small crater. Scarlov got out of the wreck "Hello everyone, I'm Scarlov Mall, President of Tornar. The plane was experimental, not yet functioning properly" he remarked casually. His guard pulled up beside him "I've been trying to lose them all day" Scarlov said quietly to Hogart.
"And you did that by crashing a helicopter into a tower?" He whispered angrily
"Hey, that's a G-5 heron, it's hard to fly, it's got three blades, and it's experimental" he retorted, pouting. "And you haven't been around those guards, I can barely survive with them around"
"I don't give a shit, that burger king cost the government 10 million NSDs!"
"You think that's expensive?" he said, smirking. "That heron cost 400 mil alone! You think I would crash it purposefully? You have got to be joking!"
"I see. But you're paying for that burger king by tommorow, ya hear!"
"No matter, lets head inside" Scarlov walked up the steps to the ballroom, and took a look around. "When will everyone be ariving?" he asked. "Was I early?"
"Have you seen Ingram? I thought he would be here" Inquired Scarlov
"Tower this Oka One coming in for a landing."
"Roger you are clear for landing."
Elenore her Husband and her sister Margaret and Margaret's boyfriend arrived dressed in their best.
"Come Margaret."
"I still don't get why mom didn't come along." Margaret said
"You know mother Margaret."
"Such a shame, she was a great dancer." Elenore's husband said.
Their arrival was announced: Prime Minister Elenore Romney-Burk, Josh Burk, Margaret Romney her boyfriend Alan Parker."
Margaret turned red, her boyfriend just smiled at her.
"It's not like I'm the First Daughter." Margaret said embarrassed.
"Sorry Margaret." Elenore said
President Hogart walked over to the Kanami delegation and extended his hand "Greetings, I'm James Hogart, President of Cazelia. Welcome to the Xanadou ball"
President Hogart walked over to the Kanami delegation and extended his hand "Greetings, I'm James Hogart, President of Cazelia. Welcome to the Xanadou ball"
"We wouldn't miss it."
Scarlov walked reluctantly over to the Kanmians "Hello, and welcome! Please step inside" Scarlov walked to the door and held it open "After you..."
The name Elenore always lifted Tomoyo's spirits. They were more like best friends instead of politcal colleauges.
"Elenore, thank you for coming. It's good to see you Joshua, Margaret."
"Thank you. Good to see you Tomoyo."
"This is the biggest event Xanadou has had. All thanks to Cazelia"
"We wouldn't miss it."
"That's nice" He said smling

Baldwin Villehardouin, Prime Minister of Latin Byzantines, walked into the ballroom with his Kanamian wife, Haruko. They were dressed in formal clothes and had left their children in the care of family friends.
Baldwin looked at the other guests for a couple of seconds until his eyes were focused on Elenore Romney, one of Baldwin's old friends. "It is nice to see Elenore again, I still remember when I first met her during my visit to Kanami." He remembered those memories of his visit to Kanami while he walked towards Elenore and hoped that Elenore remembered him.
"Elenore, it is nice to meet you tonight."

"This is Golden Horse coming in for landing tower, over."
"Roger that, Golden Horse. Clear for landing. Welcome to Xanadou."
The Mil Mi-24 slowly came down on the section of airstrip reserved for helicopters and the pilot and co-pilot began to shut down the copter's systems. The door on the side of the Mil Mi-24 snapped open and out stepped Grand Khan Oyunimo, followed by his personal guard. Dressed like they were ready for battle he bore the traditional battle armor of the Khan as did his guards. However, the armor was actually top-grade Dragon Skin body armor material covered over with a layer of traditional leather which most Mongolian armors were made of.
The Grand Khan and his escort then arrived at the Democratic Ballroom by limousine and he approached the entrance, flanked by his rather intimidating guards.

Miamorga walked in to the ballroom after getting out of his ride. He was dressed in his best suit. He immediatly walked to the dancefloor which is where he felt most at home. As he waited for whichever beautiful maiden that wished to join him.
