Elizabeth couldn't make up her mind if she was bored with having another birthday this year or was truly happy that people remeembered. Of course she had recieved countless gifts, poems, songs, performances in her honour and inwardly she swore she would definitely preferred to pelt some of the courtiers with the less edible bits from the banquet or something rather than have to sit through another boring moment of it all!

Elizabeth was fanning herself, listening to another court jester sing songs about her when she caught sight of a familiar person making his way toward her. She stood bolt upright and clapped her hands joyously at the sight of her friend, Snake Plissken. Beside himk holding his hand was a young woman whom she did not recognize, or certainly it was not one she had met befor at Snake'splace. Well, she reasoned, certainly any friend of Snake's was a frend of hers!

"Snake!" Elizabeth cried out coming across the throne room to where her friend stood with his companion, "How good it is of you to join me for my birthday! Come let us show these sad sacks how to throw a real party!"
