[OPEN] RISE'S SUPER SWEET SIXTEEN

[chemistryinmotion]

Who: Wally, Rise, AND YOU!!!

What: Rise's 16th Birthday Party

When: June 1

Where: The Karaoke Bar





[ As planned, the party is being held at the karaoke bar. On the middle tables of the room are two 8-tier cakes surrounded by whatever presents people brought. There are snacks and drinks on the other tables. Balloons fill the corners of the room. It looks pretty sweet.

He's already texted Rise about meeting him here, under the guise of a date, so she should be showing up any moment now...

Get ready to yell surprise and belt out some tunes (whether you can sing or not)! ]

[ Before his text, she was really planning to give him a piece of her mind. He had worried her so much!


--- she changed her mind when she arrived though. So this is why he disappeared. It was pretty smart of him to set this all up in the one place she was trying to avoid for today. ]

Risette! Risette! Happy Birthday!

[Sonata is definitely here to wish Rise a happy birthday! She didn't have enough to buy something super awesome for her fellow idol, but she still brought a gift! Sonata had also managed to find a cute bunny hooded dress similar to the one she had worn to a handshake event while dragging Penguinmon around town one day, so she's dressed up in that.]

[risette_truestory]

Sonata! Did you know about this?

[ Rise ran to her sort-of little sister and gave her a tight hug. Oh, Sonata. How do you get so cute and adorable? ]

[sonati]

[Sort of big sister gets a big hug back!]

Mmm! Sonata heard about it on the network!

[risette_truestory]

The network?

[ Did she mean the post she made when she was still looking for Wally? ]

Oh! The one I made earlier?

[sonati]

No, no, the one from Risette's, um... boyfriend! Sonata got a text message, too.

[This is Marley hopping out of her place of hiding, with Hawkmon standing on her shoulders to make the pair look like an awkward totem pole. They're both smiling and Marley cups her hands around her mouth.]

Happy birthday, Rise!

[hardworkingprince]

[The Prince saw the invitation on the network, and from what he understands of birthdays, that means that he is wanted there, yes? So obviously, he must go! He makes sure that he picks up a present on his way there, however. In the Collection, the King had said that girls love polka dots on umbrellas, so the Prince found one, and he also is bringing a pack of gum, because it is candy that never disappears, no matter how much you chew. Who would not want that? He even wrapped up the both of them in a long, thin white box, with a ribbon tied into a bow. He knows what presents look like. They look the same for everybody. Even the King was so gracious as to bestow him with presents every once and a while.

He seeks Rise out once he arrives, assuming that the presents must be delivered to the birthday girl in question.]

Ah! Rise! There you are. [He holds out the box, beaming.] Happy birthday!

[risette_truestory]

Boyfriend? [ Blink blink. ]

You mean ... Wally? [ She suddenly smiles and realizes what was going on. ]

Wally planned all this, didn't he?

[risette_truestory]

[ Sorry, Marley. She doesn't even hear you. She was too much in a high! She grabs Marley by the arm and dragged her with her to the karaoke machine.

Yay! Another friend she can sing with! And she knew this girl could definitely sing. ]

Song, start!

[wall_flower]

[Hawkmon takes to the air as Marley is dragged to the karaoke machine. She laughs and spins in a circle before going through the list of songs. She wants something upbeat (it's a party, after all).]

How about...THIS!

[She smiles brightly as she selects the song. Soon, the opening music for Come On Over starts, and it doesn't take long for Marley to jump in with the vocals.]

[sonati]

Oh, is that his name? Sonata didn't know.

Yeah, he did! Sonata volunteered to sing a song for Risette!

[risette_truestory]

And I am glad you did too! But, since it is my birthday ... I should probably get a wish, don't I?

Come on. I'll race you to one of the karaoke machines. Sing with me!

[sonati]

Okay! [Totally excited for this!] Sonata wants to sing with Risette! Sonata will race!

[risette_truestory]

[ Rise had just come from another singing battle with one of her idol friends, so her voice was a little hoarse from all the singing and laughing. The moment she saw Prince, she excused herself and ran towards him.

Don't mind her. She will just give him a biiiiggg hug for coming. ]

[risette_truestory]

Great! On your mark, get set --- Go!

[risette_truestory]

[ She was a little worried about the language barrier. Rise didn't know a lot of western songs, but she was lucky this time. Marley actually chose a song that she was familiar with.

It was not long before she was singing and dancing with her. ]

[sonati]

[And Sonata will take off as soon as Rise gives the 'Go', eager to be first!]

[chemistryinmotion]

[ After the initial surprise, Wally greets her with a kiss. He's not normally one for public displays of affection, but this is a special case. ]

Happy birthday, beautiful. You like it?

[ He's talking about the party, of course. He'll give her her present later. ]

[risette_truestory]

[ Rise wasn't really much of a runner, so not surprisingly, Sonata had that round. She decided to make up for it by scoring more in the Karaoke machine. ]

Sonata, you're pretty fast!

[risette_truestory]

I love it! I love it! [ She was running towards him now and wrapping her arms around him. She was not expecting this. Since he was her first boyfriend, she didn't know what to expect. Maybe a date. A small present.

But a party!?

And Alexandria thought she has bad tastes? As far as Rise is concerned, she had the best boyfriend in the world! ]

I love it! And oh! [ She begins planting kisses all over his face now. Because ... what else could a girlfriend who was this happy could do? ]

I love you!

[ She hoped that wasn't too soon. Her cheeks are a little flushed, but she just wanted to say it. ]

I don't know how I could possibly top all this on your birthday.

[sonati]

Heheh... Sonata's had training! [Combat training! But she doesn't clarify.]

[hardworkingprince]

[My! The Prince certainly was not expecting this kind of a reaction, though he is rather glad for it. It boosts his excitement about this whole thing. He will even return the hug Rise is giving him! Wow, his very first hug from a human. He will have to write this down later.]

Are you having fun?

[for_granite]

[Terra kinda watches Rise, with all the fun, smirking and smiling. Okay, maybe it's time to stop giving Wally dirty looks at work. She approaches her, after a song, seems Rise's doing a lot of those.]

So...surprised?

[headup_stickontheice]

[Cam looked for gifts. He did! He's not good at this! His mom always helped him back home, even with Maya's! But no, he will do this right, he has a cute little sparkly bag -- she likes sparkles, right? -- and goes up to Rise, presenting it--]

Um. H-happy Birthday, Rise.

[Inside the bag is a pair of earrings! Purple and pink, little stars.]
