Status: Completed!

Giselle woke with the pleasant thoughts of Legolas in her head. Their impromptu duet the day before had stuck with her even into her dreams. She smiled dreamily as she sat up in bed and went to the balcony doors. She leaned against the side of the balcony and sang with all her heart. When she had finished her seranade of the entire resort, she resumed waking up.

She showered and dressed with the help of her animal friends and went to get some breakfast at the restaurant. When she returned from a satisfying meal of pancakes and fresh fruit, she saw an envelope taped to her door that she had neglected to notice before. She pulled it off and tore it open. Giselle loved getting messages, and she half hoped it was from Legolas.

But it was not to be. Instead it was instructions about a mandatory activity she was to participate in. She had never even heard of bowling. She frowned, but if she was going to be doing it with other people, she was going to have fun, regardless.

She spent the remainder of the morning, before she had to participate in the activity, redecorating her room. Instead of all pink, she concentrated on putting some silvery and purply threads in the comforter on her bed and in the wallpapered walls. She gave herself a grander vanity and a bigger wardrobe.

She was dressed in a flowing yellow dress when she left her room to go to her activity. Her hair was left down, tucked neatly behind her ears. She skipped as she moved down the hall of the main building toward the door leading to the bowling alley. She stepped in and found that she was the first one there.

She went to the desk and the golem there directed her to a lane after handing her some shoes and socks. She grimaced and held the shoes up in front of her face. "Has someone else worn these?" She whispered loudly to the golem. He nodded and she wrinkled her nose. "Do you have any no one else has worn?" He shook his head. She frowned and sighed, heading for the lane she had been directed to.

Sitting down, she pulled off her sandals and proceeded to put the shoes and socks on. She was horrified at having to wear something someone else had worn. Someone she didn't know, too! Sitting back to wait for the others to arrive, Giselle's attention was drawn to a television set high above her head. It had some dancing pins and bowling balls on it before it cleared and some instructions flowed across the screen.

She read them as quickly as she could, trying to understand what she was supposed to do. The video replayed itself when it finished, and Giselle looked down the lane to the pins standing in formation. She screwed up her mouth wondering just how she was supposed to knock all those huge pins down with just one little ball.

Grinning at Katara, Giselle took her place once more, leaning forward with rapt attention to watch the others as they bowled. She looked up as Katara passed her and listened to her advice. "Oh, thank you, Katara!" She nodded, and tried to file the information away so that she could bring it back when it was next her turn.

When Katara bowled, Giselle watched her carefully and grinned and clapped at both attempts. She was just happy they were all here and seemed to be having a good time despite the fact that it was a forced activity. "No, Katara, your information was very helpful! You'll see. I'll do better next time." She looked over at Tyler as Katara posed her question. She was curious about it as well.

She watched him take his turn next and clapped when he managed to get a strike on the first try. "Great job, Tyler!" She crowed, clapping enthusiastically. "Wonderful!" She grinned as he took his seat and then asked where everyone was from. "I'm from New York, and before that I was from Andalasia. I got pushed into New York by this ugly old woman." Giselle pouted, but smiled almost instantly. She couldn't be too angry with the woman, she had met Robert and Morgan afterall. And that never would have happened if it weren't for her.

She watched Jun take his turn next and remembered how he had cheered her. She returned the favor, pumping her fist in the air just as he had done. "You can do it, Jun!" She hopped up, bouncing on the balls of her feet as she watched him bowl his first round. "Six! Fantastic, Jun!" She grinned, peering around him to watch his second bowl. She stamped her foot when he missed on his second try, but when he turned around she patted him on the shoulder. "Great job, Jun. Really wonderful!"

She sat back down and turned as Christian answered Tyler's question. "Paris?! Oh, I have heard it is a beautiful place. I wish I could go there someday." Giselle spoke wistfully, although she would probably never be able to go anywhere other than here ever again. But, she could control her room. Maybe she could make it look like the Louvre or something. She had read about the place in books, and the library on the Planet was well stocked.

She next watched him bowl and as he knocked down six pins she clapped. "You are getting the hang of it, I think, Christian!" She grinned as she popped up to take her own turn. She picked up the ball and tried to remember what Katara had told her about keeping her wrist strait. She walked up, swung the ball back and took aim, trying with everything she had to keep her wrist strait.

It was strait, but a little off center. The bowl rolled down the lane and took out one side of the formation. She jumped up and down grinning. "Did you see that?!" She grinned and waited for her ball to come back so she could bowl again. When it did, she took aim once more and bowled again. The ball whooshed down the lane and took out three more pins on the opposite side, leaving the first and middle pins standing. "Eight!" She laughed and clapped for herself, quite proud, before taking her seat once more and pulling her clasped hands up under her chin.
