Circus Outcast (formerly Misfit Circus 2)

Else

I wait for Nick's answer. I see the desperation on Juliette's face. She needs him more than I do. I couldn't stand what would happen if Nick picked me. It would be better if he just picked her.

I looked at Nick, he looked like he was going to answer, but I cut him off.

"Juliette, I can live without Nick. I am not sure you would have such an easy time, you know, getting over it. And I don't want you going to the government, your my friend. I don't want to lose that. Nick, she is yours." I leave the tent. I don't cry. This was my choice, not his. I can't cry over my own decision.

I go up to Aron, "Aron, I need your help."

"What do you want."

"I need you to teach me to fight." I needed to learn. What would happen if suddenly I lost my powers? It also would be a safe way for me to vent my anger at myself, for not realizing that Juliette needed Nick, like I would find someone else I need.

"Why?"

"In case I lose my powers I need to learn to fight."

"Sure, why not. Just making sure it had nothing to do with Nick."

So he lead me to an open field. My fighting training began.

I must admit, he was a good fighter. He taught me thing I wouldn't even think of, because I had been using my powers so long. Me and Aron had a few laughs, mostly at my pathetic attempts at punches.

This actually might be okay.

Aron, Tracker ~

Elise had approached and I was curious to see what this was about. Hopefully it wasn't about Nick I was kind of annoyed at having to listen to the constant arguments and crying. I can tell something has just happened because he facade of casualness is poorly plastered on her face.

"Aron, I need your help." she says.

"What do you want." I reply a little to annoyed, but adjust my tone to a confident and quite one.

"In case I lose my powers I need to learn to fight."

"I need you to teach me to fight." she asks me.

Whoa, why does she want to learn how to fight? I wonder. "Why?"

"In case I lose my powers I need to learn to fight."

"Sure, why not. Just making sure it had nothing to do with Nick." I say.

At that note I lead her into the field by our camp. I hadn't really taught anyone anything before, but it seemed right to be here teaching her. Something clicked.

She tried to punch me, but the attempt was so pathetic it was cute. We both share a laugh at her and fall on the ground for a short break.

"You didn't do to horrible." I say beaming.

Zack

I agreed to help Kili. Besides, I didn't have a choice, and I could always turn things to my own ends somehow.

"Okay, fine, but how are we supposed to contact the Americans?" We couldn't do something as obvious as a phone call, but I couldn't think of much else.

"We'll call them," Kili replied.

The ingeniousness of this dawned on me and we began searching for a way to contact them.

H. Smith

My cell phone rang once again. No doubt Burggs had some more useless information to report.

However, as I listened to the speaker, it became clear this wasn't the case.

"Track the call," I commanded an officer. Immediately he began working.

After I hung up, I turned to the officer.

"Australia again, sir. This time, an exact location."

I widened my grin.

Else

I try again to punch him. He merely has to step out of the way to dodge me. I sigh.

"I feel like such a weakling." I admitted.

"So what, you can't throw a punch. It doesn't matter your like a kitten fighting a tiger." He said, I laughed. Aron is so much fun, I never noticed it before. We fit together like two puzzle pieces. When I was with Nick I was trying to make one whole piece fit in with one that was torn. We were never meant to be.

"I am not a kitten."

"Yes you are, though it is not 100% a bad thing."

"Fine, I am a useless kitten."

"Not useless." Aron said.

I attempted a kick. He blocked it with his arm.

"Nice try."

"Thanks," I said sarcastically.

"Kitten," he mocked. We both laughed again.

I had finally found my other puzzle piece.

(remember Eden is the psychic.)

Eden psychic telekinetic

"Come let's go for a walk." I offered Charlie. He shrugged and walked after me. "About what you said. About us taking down the government." I started. He turned around to look at me, with a smile on his face. "So will you do it?" I laughed at his eagerness.

"No.." His face fell. "But let me finish." I knew he was listening so I continued. "What I would really like to do is gather information about the government first. I'm not saying leaving the circus and going undercover, I just want someway to get me into the building and see what I can pick up without getting caught. If I can be around so many minds, so many people, think of what I can pick up." I explained poorly.

He sighed. "But it would be easier..." He started until I cut him off. "Charlie, we can't just take down the government, who knows what they have up their sleeves. We can't go in their kicking and screaming." I said. Charlie nodded. "So when did you want to get in there?"

"I don't know, when my powers are stronger." I told him, earning a scoff. "Stronger?" I rolled my eyes. "I meant, more stable. Oh and I'm going to have to tell Eve." Charlie made an unsatisfied sound.

"She would only try and stop us." He whined, almost like a child. I laughed. "Even if she wanted to, she wouldn't be able to. Plus she might be on our side."

"Fine." Charlie huffed. I smiled and patted his head. "Thanks." There was a sudden twinge in the back of my head and something seemed to tell me that the government knew where we were. This brought up a feeling of panic. A picture of Kili and Zack standing together flashed in my mind.

ironically we were passing them a few moments later. I gestured for Charlie to stay there as i walked over to them. Knowing they were involved with an undesirable future and their intentions were no good either.

"Be careful of the fire you play with. You may think you have it under control, or you know how to control it. But you don't. Know all the information before you start anything." I warned, walking back over to Charlie.

"Are they up to something?" He asked.

"Do you really have to ask." I retorted as we continued our walk.

"The government is coming." I told him.

Aron, Tracker ~

I didn't feel like I needed to be alone, everything was perfect. We lay in the grass looking up at the sky, and at some point I had reached over and grasped else's hand. Just laying there was so peaceful as if no other thing in the world mattered.

I hadn't wanted to breach this conversation, but I thought it was necessary. "Are you really through with Nick?" I ask.

Esle

"I don't think I will be, for a while. It was my choice to leave him. Juliette needed him. I just wanted him. I was sick and tiered of the game. But I think, maybe, if I found someone who I really loved soon, getting over him would really be very easy." I looked over at him.

"Someone like who?" He asked.

"I really don't know. It could really be any guy. But I have a feeling he might be closer than I think."

"What makes you think that?"

Aron, tracker ~

"What makes you think that?" I ask.

We have our heads turned and instead of the sky I am looking into her beautiful blue eyes. She pauses for a second. "So who do you love?" It takes a minute for my mind to shift gears and think about what she has asked me. I never really had someone that I really loved, sure a few girlfriends early on, but no one I would live with forever.

"Love is a strong word." I firmly reply

"So you don't believe in love?"

"I never said that, its just that I've never really gotten to know any girls that I can relate to and like me for who I am."

A smile forms on her lips and we lay transfixed in each other for a few short moments.

Else

"I do agree, love is a strong word. I don't think I should have used it in reference to Nick. I must admit, it was almost out of selfisness I let him go with Juliette."

"How was that selfish?" Aron asked.

"In my own mixed up way, i was trying to make myself look like the good guy. Make myself apear stronger than I am."

"And you are not?'

"I am stronger than I thought I was, but still not enough. If I was I wouldn't give loving him a second thought. I have a feeling we will always be friends, but, nothing more."

Eve runs up to us, "The American Government is on there way, we need to leave, now."

The rest are behind her. The rest, except for Kili and Zack. But I knew they were the reason they were coming. We had to leave them behind.

"Charlie," I said, running a map of the world through my mind, "send us to..to.. Anekov island. It is near the tip of south america." I would have asked Nick. But as of right now I wasn't sure I could say his name without breaking down. He looked at me with sad eyes. Almost as if he didn't like my choice, as if he wanted it the other way. But I couldn't break up our circus.

There was a flash of white, then we were standing on Anekov Island.

Juliette

I repeated the words in my mind. you can have him... . Else was the most selfless person I knew. Everyone left the room and a tense akwardness filled the air.I never thought about it but what if Nick wanted Else, not me? We looked at each other shyly.

"Nick..if you want Else than it's okay, I'll-I'll be fine" I muttered, looking up at him. I never really noticed how tall he really was.

"Me and Else were just a fling Jules. I-I love you " Nick whispered before lifting my chin and placing a soft kiss on my lips. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I locked my hands around his neck.

It was the sweetest kiss I ever had. Then a scream burst the love,

"The Americans are coming! We have to get out!!"

H. Smith

"They found out about us again, sir. They've transported to Anekov island," Burggs reported through my phone.

"Damn," I cursed. I regained my composure and replied in a frighteningly calm voice, "I want you to get there, find the teleporter and kill them. This time, you won't be obvious enough for them to spot you. And I will make sure of this. Technology we have developed surpasses even your knowledge, Burggs. I will be sending you anti mental detection aircraft to fly to the island.

"Sir, is that even possible?" Burggs wondered.

"If it wasn't, would I be putting so much confidence on it?!?" I replied stiffly. I flipped the phone closed.

Else

We couldn't keep running forever. We had to fight. But we needed more people. I didn't ask Nick, my promise to him was over. I went up to Charlie.

"Charlie, if you feed of some one's powers, could you give them back?"

"Most of them."

"Take mine."

"No!"

"Please, it benefits both me and you. Please!"

"Fine." He touched me, and the power flowed out of me, it left a empty feeling in my chest. The hunger was gone from his eyes.

"You will... no questions, transport me to the nearest hairdresser you can find."

"Why on earth would I..." He started.

"Just do it! Use Eve to know when to bring me back. " We didn't have time to waste. There was a flash of white, and I was standing in a full service beauty parlor and salon.

I walk up to the nearest lady.

"If you can serve me now, and make me look the complete opposite of what I am, you get 100 dollars." She looked stunned, then brought me over to a chair. Minuted passed like hours. Finally she was done with my hair.It was a light brown red, strait as a needle.

I pulled out a pair of glasses and contacts that would color my eyes brownish green.

I thanked the woman and payed her. Then I stepped out of the shop. I ran into the nearest clothing store and bought a t-shirt and jeans. to top of the shy girl look I added a messenger bag and converse. My disguise was complete.

Without my powers they wouldn't recognise me. There sensors would pick me up as just a girl touring the white house.

I called a taxi to the government building, everything was falling into place.

****what she looks like now (http://www.bestfastcash.com/images/red-hair-glasses.jpg)****

Nick, teleporter,

One minute, I'm there feeling that my troubles are finally over, kissing Jules, feeling happy, and then...

Island off the tip of South America.

"Right," I mutter in Jules' ear, "I'm going to find Charlie, and kill him."

Juliette frowns at me, "Stop letting your anger get the hang of you, Nick."

I sigh, "Okay, okay. I won't kill him, I'll just pound him unitl-"

"Nick!"

"Sorry, sorry,"

I step out of the tent, and look around, locating Charlie. I approach him. He looks at me nervously.

"Okay, Charlie. One question. Why this place?"

"Ummm, some place small and out of the way?"

"Fair enough. Now, I need everyone together, now. And that's including Zack and Kili. I'm hoping that Eden just saw that, 'cause I don't know how else to get you lot all together at once."

Charlie clears his throat, "Nick, Zack and Kili aren't with us. They, uh, disappeared. And, well, Else's in D.C. She said something about a promise-"

"What?!"

I hate to ruin your plan Kaywila but Charlie can't take just someones powers, the powers people have are part of them if he takes someones powers he kills them, other wise he'd do it all the time.

Okay, I understand that. But lets just say, for the sake of not changing evrything, that she wouldn't die because she was half human.
