Day 3- Bowling

What: Bowling
When: Late Morning
Where: Bowling Alley
Rating: TBD
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.

Giselle looked away from the screen above her as Katara approached. She smiled at her and watched her put on her ugly shoes, too. When Katara looked up and smiled, Giselle grinned. "Hello! I'm Giselle! Lovely to meet you, Katara. You have such a beautiful name. And you are beautiful, too!" Giselle had never really seen such a beautiful woman before. Dark hair and skin, and such striking eyes.

She followed the woman's gaze back up to the screen, still trying to grasp the concept of the game. When the question was asked, she turned to look at her again. "No, have you? I don't know how I'll ever learn this game." She sighed softly and looked up again when she heard Tyler's voice. She smiled at him and stood up to curtsey. "Hello, Tyler! I'm Giselle!" She grinned and waited for Katara to introduce herself before she answered his first question. "I really don't know why they want us to play this game. It does seem strange, doesn't it? I suppose the Planet wanted us to meet people we haven't met before."

She lifted her hand and looked past Tyler to wave at Jun. "Jun! How good to see you!" She grinned and bounced on the balls of her feet. "It does look like fun, but I have never played. Have you?" She waited for him to get closer and sit down to tie his shoes before she reseated herself and propped her elbows on her knees and dropped her face into her hands. Her head lifted a few moments later, however, when Christian arrived she stood again and clasped her hands to her breast.

"Hello! I'm Giselle, what's your name?" She smiled radiantly at him. She was slightly unnerved to be outnumbered by men, but she was sincerely glad that Katara was there as well. It made the odds more bearable. She sat back down again and looked up as the screen switched from an instructional video to a screen filled with little boxes and their names. Giselle was first, then Katara, Tyler, Jun and Christian. The order of their arrival, it seemed.

Giselle was nervous to go first, but she went and picked up a ball. It was far too heavy and she nearly dropped it on her foot, but managed to put it back on the round holder in time. She reached for another one and decided that smaller numbers on the balls meant that they were lighter. She grabbed one with an 8 etched into it and felt satisfied she could hang onto it long enough to throw it down the lane.

She glanced back at the others. "Wish me luck!" She threw the ball down the lane and missed. Completely missed. Gutter ball all the way. Giselle stamped her foot and scowled. She was never going to get the hang of it. She went back to sit down, but found that her name was still highlighted. She got another chance! She waited for her ball to return before grabbing it and chucking it down the lane once more.

This time she took out one pin on the right side and she jumped into the air and giggled. "I did it! I got one down!" She skipped back to her chair and sat down, touching Katara's arm lightly. "Your turn!"
