Misfit Circus

Kili,

I glare at Viper. I don't want and don't need his sympathy. Besides, looking at him makes me want to puke. Markus walks away before I can ask him to help, so I'm stuck. Just as I'm thinking that things can't get any worse, the show ends, and Alura walks into the tent.

"Let's get something straight," I hiss, "you are NOT getting an apology."

Nick,

After the show ended, I am overwhelmed. Not only do Misfits seem to be multiplying before my eyes, but they all seem to be sarcastic show offs as well. Finally, I grab both of their arms and teleport to Fee, who is in the girl's tent talking to that damn boy who keeps popping up everywhere. Annoyed, I push him out of the way, and start telling Fee about these two new miscreants. Aargh! Why can't I have a normal day? Preferably one with Kat...

Markus, weather:

Once second the girl was there, the next she had pulled her face inside the tent. I went to the opening of the flap and peered in. The snake-man, whose name I thought was Viper, stood there guarding the girl who looked seriously angry and more than a little beaten. The girl named Alura stood with her hand on her hip glaring.

"What happened here?" I asked.

this is a very good story. the writers thought it out and planned it. (obviously) snd it helped the tale, instead of making it more boring and plain. it was exciting and funny, and the title really sparked. the words ran together and sounded like water flowing. it was a great story and it could possibly be published. (then it would be easier to read. )

Desmond~~

I see Nick dragging two of the performers to Fee. Anger was drawn onto his face in harsh lines, not so uncommon there. I pulled a sheet of paper out of my pocket and wrote 'take the night off' on it, I'd feel bad if he helped me with my act.

I ran up onto the large circular stage of the sky tent. The roof rose into the darkness above and only scattered lights illuminated the balance beams and ropes that crisscrossed the heights like vines in a jungle. I turned to the Audience, "Hello, ladies and gentlemen! I know the show has been... entertaining so far, and I just hope I can live up to the expectations."

I pulled five balls out of a bag, each about the size of a volleyball but colored so that they grew in the dark. I passed them out to audience members and said, "Now, when I call out a number I want you to throw the ball, and I'm going to try and give it back to you. You're one, you're two-" I went on until each of them were named then I went back onto the stage.

I ran at the wall and jumped off of it, faking a fall on my back. The crowd gasped and some boos erupted from the far corners, "lets try that again shall we?"

I ran at the wall and jumped, my body rising ten feet before I hit the wall, then bouncing out another fifteen feet to a rope. I grabbed it and swung around the tent, my body stretched out. At the height of the swing I let go, my body flying through the air till I hit the wall, then I ran. I circled up the tarp upwards in a spiral till I was almost at the top, then I fell, on purpose. I twisted in the air, turning and rolling in a complex series that landed me perfectly on my feet on a green rope that spanned the tent, fifty feet up. I paced the pole, flipping and jumping in a manner that would put olympic gymnasts to shame. Then I jumped off in a dive. I called "One!" and the ball flew through the air. I straightened and caught the ball, throwing it back to him in the same movement before I caught a rope and wing around again. The act continued in that manner, swinging around and falling until all of the balls had been returned.

At the end I dropped the hundred feet to the floor and landed smoothly on my feet. The cloud started clapping, not loudly, I'm sure it was nothing like what some of the others had done, but it was something.

"Thank you! I'm sorry to cut the act short, but due to some events that have occurred previously in the night, I have business to attend to. Please enjoy the rest of your night!"

I changed out of my tight spandex for my act and slipped on black skinny jeans, relishing in the feel of actual fabric on my skin. I pulled a small white T-shirt on over my chest and buttoned up a dress shirt over that. I rolled up the sleeves as I walked out, guitar slung over my shoulder. The night before I had scoped out the land around us, and now I went to a place I had found deep in the woods. There was a small stream with willows and other trees growing close to it. Grass grew tall there, and it appeared to me that men had not graced the area in quite a while. I climbed a tree and sat, while my guitar gently wept.

*had to put in some beatles! sorry for length. Someone feel free to join me if they want

((Is the show over? If not, I'll probably send Viper in to do something.))

((I think so...))

Viper, snake-guy

I rolled my eyes. Kili always had been infantile. "Fine, be like that." I noticed the way she looked at me and tried not to flush. It seemed none of the girls thought I was worth looking at unless I had my shirt off.

When Alura re-entered, I sighed. "Do you still need me, or can I go?"

Kili,

I am furious. After Alura tried to punch me, I was taken to the tent with Viper, and now here's Alura, trying to talk to me. Before I can do anything or say anything more, she is getting into my head. I try to block, but in vain. She gets in and tells me, in an insinuating whisper, "Break your arm...break your arm..." Resisting does not help, and I see my arm rising and then falling forcefully on a hard wood table in the corner of the tent. Everyone hears the CRACK as my fore arm snaps.

Zack, can disperse his own molecules; can enter and control inanimate objects

I still don't know who shoved me, but before I could look I was picked up by Nick and teleported elsewhere.

In front of us stood Fee, the girl who had inducted me into the circus. She didn't look happy at the interruption.

Viper, snake-guy

What the crap? I'd had it with all these people's petty fights and attempts at retribution.

"That's ENOUGH," I snarled, glaring at Alura. "I wasn't able to perform tonight because of you two" not that I minded "and I swear if you don't cut it out I'll bite you both. Do you want to spend the rest of the night unable to move?"

Kat

I went waking under the moonlight after the shows, staring absentmindedly at the sky. In front of me, I thought I could hear a guitar strumming and someone singing softly.

I squinted in the darkness, barely able to make somebody out in the distance. About halfway there I recognized Desmond.

"Need some company?" I whispered as I sat next to him.

He jumped a little, but then smiled. "Sure, company would be nice."

Nick,

As I stand in front of Fee with the two new orphans, I slump my shoulders and sit down. Fee is telling the kids where to sleep, so I don't have to care anymore. The other kid, the one Fey was talking to, is standing in a corner, glaring at me. Great. It seems to be "National Glare at Nick Day." I groan as I remember that I forgot to teleport the dummy for Des. Just another thing to add to the long list of bad things today. I teleport to Desmond to apologize, and I find him sitting with Kat, which just makes me more miserable.

"Hey, um, Des?" he and Kat jump and turn around. I stand there awkwardly, momentarily forgetting why I'm here.

"Yes?" Desmond asks hesitantly.

"Umm, I'm really sorry that I forgot to teleport that dummy for you, but I'll do it next time," I mumble quickly.

Alura,influences people

After Viper threatened me ans Kili, Kili calmed down. I glared at Kili, The only way I was going to drop it was if Kili apologized. "Kili you better apologize!" She gave me a nasty glare and responded with a, "Never" She was already holding her broken arm which I told her to break. I looked at Viper, "Viper I apologize for you having to miss doing your act" I then walked out of the tent in a hurry before I lost it again. I heard in another tent Fee talking to some guy, I decided to peak in and see who it was. I look in and Zeb was there! I run in and hug him before he even realizes who I am. "Zeb! I miss you so much!" Lizzie walked in at that moment and yelled "Zeb!" We where both hugging him as Fee watched with confusion. I smiled, this was the best moment in my life, I had not seen Zeb in four years. Fee walked up to me and tapped on my shoulder, "Um...who is this?" I smile, "This is our brother! We haven't seen him in years" I hugged him some more. I have to introduce him to everyone. Me and Lizzie grabbed his arm and led him out of the tent.
