Venice, Italy 1400's. Renaissance
The sun reflected off of the water like shimmering silver and blue as I looked down at the gondalas as the moved smoothly through the calm waters in the early morning. I loved my home land, since I felt so connected to the water that surrounded the city. I heard the maid at my door and I leapt off of the balcony and back into my cot, pretending to be asleep when she managed to open the door. "Lady Caprice, It is morn'. Time to 'wake." She said, as she pulled the silk sheets off of me. I pretended to yawn sleepily. "Come, Caprice. You have a very important Gala tonight. We must start preparing now." I frowned sadly. I hoped that if I looked tired enoughh, that she would allow me to continue to sleep, but no. Hours later, I was in a lavender gown a with a feathered masquerade mask, walking the steps of some important persons castle. Yet another Gala, yet another boring night of potential yet already failing suitors. I sat in the corner, yet they noticed me quickly and ushered me to the floor. Sadly, word of my singing spread quickly. "Sing for us Caprice, sing." The unfortunate man, who was the young master of the castle commanded. I sighed sadly, expecting this outcome.

the gala was well lit but my face was hidden behind a pitch black mask with streaks of red i watched the young lady from afar my eyes blazed black. she had to be mine somehow and someway i was going to get. i moved to a pillar closer to her ignoring the women who came up to me and began to talk my eyes still lingered on the young girl that was before me.

I sang, just notes at first, hitting the scales, reaching higher than most popular opera singers, before singing an old folk song about bewaring the water fairies. I finished, gasping for air. No one clapped before a while, before erupting in applause. I was sick of the attention, but knew I still had to preform no matter what.

I left the stage in a hurry, hoping for no morre encores. With a sigh, I hide in the corner, hidden in the shadows, hoping no one would see me. I smooth out the dress, feeling the silky material between my fingers. I slump into a chair, but still keeping an elegent positor.

Another sutior. I tried to stop the impulse of rolling my eyes. Sadly, people were watching, including my mother who urged me on with a wave of a hand and a stern look. "Caprice." I said, standing and taking his hand.

"We should at least dance first. People are watching." I said, semi-dragging him to the dance floor, before curtsing and addressing him, raising a hand to his. In a way this was a challenger, to see if he was worth my time.

I had to admit, I was impressed by his courage, but a little bored with the simple tasks and steps. With a flourish, I grab onto both his hands and turn around and around, feet whispering ont the ground, telling him I wanted more.

I smile excitedly when I'm pulled up back up from the dip. "Again?" I asked, sounding like a child playing with a new toy.
