Meanwhile at the ball, Koran had cleared out the entire party by drunkenly spouting off his thesis on interstellar diplomacy. His lone female fan gazed at him adoringly and Koran was even relaxed enough to give her a friendly smile every once in awhile. The other guests had either departed or passed
out...and so the evening went on...with the female guest wondering if she would pass the time with the distinguished but drunk Koran..

Wet, bedragged and covered with mud and Silly String, the Prince of Doom carried his prize to his ship. At last! She was his! They had an excellent excuse to take a shower now! He grinned in triumph as he set Allura down in one of the chairs. She smiled back, still very tipsy.
"I bet you don't wear any underwear!!"
Lotor actually blushed, turning a darker shade of blue! The wench was bold! This was rather appealing, given her innocence. He smirked.
"Well, if you really want to find out now, Allura.." He started to remove his skull belt, to which she assisted.
She giggled, blushed and did not resist as he kissed her again.
Things were getting rather steamy when someone knocked on the door of the ship!! What in blazes? Who dared to disturb them? He opened the hatch - no one! He went back inside when just before the hatch closed, something was thrown inside! Before he could catch it, suddenly it burst into smoke and a smell like unwashed roebeasts wafted through the ship! It was awful!! Allura coughed and made a face. He had to get them out of there! The smell was horrific! He opened the hatch and let her outside . She ran across the grass, gulping for fresh air. Lotor was just about ready to follow her when suddenly from out of nowhere, a pie hit him in the face, knocking him down! He cleared the pie off his face when he saw Black LIon from out of nowhere, buzz his ship!! He heard a drunken yell - "Banzai!!" as the Lion wavered and swooped around. They were crazy! Madmen! Oh, his ship smelled like what Hagar's toes must smell like! He didn't know what to do! If he ran outside, he would be caught by the drunken Voltron Force, and he couldn't take anymore of their pranks!! But if he stayed inside and took off, he wouldn't have his angel! He took a glance outside and looked for Allura - she had disappeared!
He ducked and cursed as Black Lion buzzed his ship again, barely missing it. That was it! He was going back to Doom! He had had enough of this! He would come back for Allura again - and make sure he got some spy to get some of whatever she drank!
His heart heavy and his ship stinking, he started the sleek craft up. The engines whined and he took off. He never did notice the graffiti on his ship until he got back to Doom, and for most of following week he was avoided by everyone until he finally got the smell off. His ship had to be totally defumigated. And once again, things went back to normal on Doom, with Lotor dreaming of his beloved - only this time thinking of the night she almost was his..

The next morning...the ballroom was a disaster. Koran had fallen asleep under the table. Nanny had found him and screamed, shocking the poor man, who hadn't had a hangover since his bachelor party 25 years ago. His female admirer had curled up beside him. Nothing had happened, but sitll for Koran, it was a compromising moment - especially since the lady was a wife of a GG official!
On the grounds, Pidge and Hunk, covered with Silly String and foam from the Castle's fire extinguishers, were sprawled out under the castle fountain. Lance was hanging upside down in a tree in a net, snoring away - the victim of is own practical joke. Keith was in Black Lion, snoozing away in his bare feet - on top of the castle monument.
And Allura? She made her way back to the castle somehow and to her room, amazingly without breaking her neck in the stilleto heels! She fell asleep on the bed with her souvinir from the night - Lotor's skull belt!
Nanny was kept busy nursing everyone with hang overs and clucking over the fact that this wouldn't have happened if she'd been there.
Allura got all her clothes back from Lance who was dully punished by having to clean the castle hallways with a toothbrush!
As for the others, well..it all was hazy. For Allura, it was so clear and so embarrassing! She hid Lotor's skull belt from everyone, not wanting to start another mess! She was mortified by the things she had said and done with the Dark Prince! He would surely remember! She sure did! And she had to admit - he did kiss very nice! Oh well..
She wondered though..who was it that spiked the punch?
The answer to that remained a Castle mystery for years.....
