Today felt kind of boring so far, nothing was really happening, no one was really around, it was just another day with nothing important happening. That was, until two girls who were close friends, nearly like sisters were given an invitation in the mail. It was somehow addressed to both of them, despite both girls not living together, but they took the invites anyway.

The younger girl held the envelope and glanced at it, curious of who must've sent it and why. "Kat, check this out."

Katie came over to the younger, but, taller girl. "What is it, Nee-bear?" She asks her friend, pushing up her glasses.

"Some invitation from someone called Mr. Boddy," Cherry explained as she showed the invitation in very formal handwriting. "We have to go to that big house on its own hill for some reason... And... We can't use our real names..." That also puzzled her, she wondered what they had to be protected from since they were instructed to be using an aliases.

"That sounds cool... I'm excited now~" Katie laughs. "We are going, right?" She asks.

"I don't know, it sounds like a party for total snobs..." Cherry wrinkled her nose. "Unless, you really wanna go..." She couldn't object to Katie, besides if Katie was going, it wouldn't hurt to go along too than one without the other.

Katie smiled. "I would like to go..." she says softly.

"Okay," Cherry made a shifty face, but showed she was only humoring. "You owe me big time for this. And we can't use our real names for some reason, we have to go by new names..." Cherry showed the invitation with names listed at the bottom to go by those names at the party instead of their real names.

"Hmm... I like the name 'Miss Peach'..." she says, smiling. She then looked at the date and time for the party.

"Lady Lavender," Cherry nearly snorted at the name. "Sounds like the Queen of Rainbow County..."

Katie looked blank at that reference. She didn't get it.

"Just being random." Cherry then shrugged, her reference not really leading to something in popular culture, just taking a crack to find humor in the names they were given.

Katie smiled. "So, it's tonight?" She asks, just to make extra sure.

"That's what it looks like," Cherry looked at the invite. "And we'll be having dinner there... I still need a little snack of something before we go though, so I don't feel sick on the ride over."

Katie nodded. "I'll get us dresses, you grab a snack?" She suggests.

"Sure, by the way, this is the last time I'll wear a dress for you until your wedding." Cherry retorted, before they would go off for food and dresses.


Katie giggled. She then went off to grab the dresses. She would get a blue with peach coloured stitching designs. She got Cherry a spring green dress, more conservative, but elegant. Cherry found a mini macaroni and cheese microwave meal and decided to have that as a quick bite to eat. Katie came back with the dresses, smiling. She even clipped a lavender-shaped brooch on the spring green dress. Cherry mixed up the now hot and wet elbow noodles and started to eat them with the shredded cheese in the sealed packet.

Katie laid the dresses out and headed for a shower. Cherry happily ate her little macaroni and cheese snack, but not eating too much and left room for whatever they would be eating tonight with other guests, she just had to wonder why they were invited, but since Katie wanted to go, she really had no way out of this. Katie came out, and dressed up and did her make-up and hair. Cherry had found her dress and put it on, but wasn't doing her hair or any make-up, she saw no point in it. Katie came out in the dress. It was an ankle-length dress with a sweetheart neckline and long flowy sleeves.

Cherry then did comb her hair a little to straighten the best she could, but she knew by the time she would get out to the party that her hair would frizz up in a snap. "So, Miss Peach, you about ready?" she called out to her friend, using their false names to play along with the theme of the party.

"Yes, Lady Lavender, I think so." Katie smiles. She couldn't wait.

"I just wonder why we're invited," Cherry replied. "I don't even know anyone named Mr. Boddy, do you?"

Katie shook her head.

Cherry shrugged as well. "I heard there's a storm coming, we better go before we're caught with clouds." Until they would arrive to the house, they would go as their normal selves, but be known as Miss Peach and Lady Lavender once they would meet the various other guests to attend.

Katie ordered a taxi to take them. Cherry got a coat on over her dress and went with Katie to wait for the cab to take them to the mysterious house with mysterious characters. Soon enough, the cab came and the girls were riding their way over to the unusual house that was said to be held by a highly sophisticated man known as Boddy, though neither girls had heard of him. Katie looked amazed by the house, smiling. Ominous, foreboding, but cool.

Cherry looked out to see it too, it looked very cool to her. "Awesome..."

"We're here, ma'ams." the driver told the girls.

"Well, this is it," Cherry said, now as Lady Lavender. "Ready, 'Miss Peach'?"

"Of course, Lady Lavender." 'Peach' smiled, paying the taxi fare. She got out and looked up at the house.


Lavender and Peach left their cab and came up to the front double doors. Lavender pulled the string, the alert the household that they were there and would be a couple of guests.

The doors came open as an English man dressed in a black coat came out to see them. "Ah, good evening, you are expected. You must be Miss Peach and Lady Lavender."

"Yes, I'm Miss Peach." Peach says, smiling.

"A-And I'm Lady Lavender..." the younger girl greeted, blushing slightly.

"Let me take your coats," the man did as he said, then walked the girls inside, trailing behind them.

"And you are?" Lavender asked.

"I'm Wadsworth, ma'am's," the man informed. "The butler."

Peach smiled, she liked butlers, such complex but lovely people.

"Who and where is this Mr. Boddy?" Lavender had to know.


Wadsworth seemed to ignore her, then took the girls into the study where the voluptuous maid was along with the colonel, and a young man with glasses were. The others seemed to glance at the two girls.

"I wasn't aware children were allowed here..." the woman in black remarked.

"We're not children." Peach says with a smile, an icy one.

The colonel snorted, amused.

"You look awfully young to be here." the woman continued, though she was a better woman in comparison to certain others.

"Life has been good to us." Lavender added, jokingly.

The young man looked a bit nervous as the thunder boomed lowly and the maid had poured him a drink.

"Well, we certainly are younger than you." Peach says, sounding Icy. She had a sore spot about her height.

The Colonel looked at them.

"So, yeah." Lavender added.

"May I present Professor Plum and Miss Scarlet." Wadsworth now came in with a woman who looked like she had aged horribly and tried to cover it up with make-up and an older gentleman who looked quite intelligent, with a side of eccentric nature.

Peach smiled then, maybe these new people would be nicer. Everyone shared a nod with the couple of other guests. Professor Plum seemed very thrilled to be served by the maid as he got a quick glass of wine. The other woman seemed to come from nowhere as Wadsworth let her in, her being known as Mrs. Peacock, who looked like an owl with her wide eyes, it didn't help that her hat came with feathers.

"Of course, since you've been addressed by a pseudonym, you'll have realized that nobody here is being addressed by their real name." Wadsworth informed the guests as they all looked to each other.

Peach nodded. It was cool to have this new identity she could hide behind. The gong was struck, which made the man known as Mr. Green nervous and Lavender herself was nervous as the two accidentally spilled their drinks against each other.

"Ah, dinner..." Wadsworth told them calmly, as he led them into the dining room.

"Sorry, I'm a little accident prone..." Mr. Green murmured as he tried to clean up the younger woman.

"Happens to me at least every day." Lavender could relate, she may have been a different person tonight, but her luck never did change.

Peacock, Mustard and Scarlet all headed the group. Peach smiled at the butler. He was mysterious.
