"Some of these inventions are amazing." Rapunzel said.

All the inventions would be presented in the royal throne room where a grand party was being held. The castle was decorated in banners and beakers for glasses. There was a table full of treats.

Each inventor presented each more genius than the last. 

"You should see Varian's invention. He's been working on it for months. I can't wait for you to see it." Quirin smiled.

"How has he been doing?" Rapunzel asked.

"He won't talk about it. Val makes me so angry." He quenched his fists. 

"I know you're angry, but we don't have the whole story." Rapunzel said.

"I'll make him tell the whole story if I ever see Valentino again." Quirin hissed.

I look out the curtain. My invention was glistening in the crate. Too bad I won't get to show any of them my genius invention. I hate this. I hate what I'm about to do. This is low. Really low. I was just telling them that I'm an object to sell and I have to strip dance. 

"So baby you know what to do?" Val asks coming. 

"Yes Daddy." I say.

"Don't worry baby they'll love you out here." He smiles.

"I won't." I say.
