*it was a nice summer day, not too hot, but just right. Bendy and Dash were having an afternoon nap, while their dad, Glitch, watched over them...*
Glitch: those two are such marshmallows... they're so close... *gently pats their heads*
Bendy: *mutters* ...daddy...
Glitch: heh, I'm right here...
*just then the TV shows a commercial about a circus that's in town and that gives Glitch an idea...*
Glitch: they have been good lately, maybe a trip to the circus will be fun for them...
*so, he takes a quick trip to where the tickets are sold and gets three...*
Glitch: this will be a great day out. Maybe I should pack us a picnic for afterwards...
Sarah: hey did you hear on the news, about the priceless diamonds that were stolen?
Jean: I didn't, what happened?!
Glitch: *secretly listening in*
Sarah: the report says that three thieves broke into a jewelry store and took the diamonds that haven't been embedded in rings and necklaces yet. The police are still looking for them, but so far the trail has gone cold. They can be pretty much anywhere now
Glitch: *mentally* sounds serious...
John: how big are the diamonds?
Sarah: small, like really small. If those crooks are smart, they would most likely hide them within something
Glitch: hmm... *heading home*
*back at home...*
Bendy: *wakes up; stretching out* mmm... that was a great nap...
Dash: *looks around* Glitchy left us a snack of shortcake and apple juice!
Bendy: must be in the lab working. I still find it weird he keeps souls down there. They move around like fish
Glitch: *comes upstairs* ah I thought I heard you two talking. Have a nice nap?
Both: *in unison* yeah
Glitch: that's great to hear! I got a surprise for you!
Bendy: what is it?
Glitch: I got us tickets for the circus tomorrow!
Dash: *sparkle eyes* really?!
Glitch: indeed and we're also going to have a picnic at the park afterwards
Bendy: I read about circuses in a book. They sound really fun. I was also part of one in one of my cartoons.
Glitch: this your first time going, so I hope you're prepared for what you're going to see
Dash: this is so exciting, I don't think I'll be able to sleep!
Glitch: oh... you'll both be able to sleep good tonight, I promise
Bendy: *tail bends into a question mark*
Glitch: you'll see, in the meantime why don't we work on a list of things for the picnic
Bendy: alright
*meanwhile, elsewhere the crooks decide to blend in with the circus, by acting like clowns and have a big truck for all their props. One of the suitcases contains the diamonds...*
Butch: are you sure this plan will work?
Max: positive! All we gotta do is lay low here in the circus, as clowns and when it moves to it's next destination, we go along with it! The plan is foolproof!
Charter: that'll definitely shake the cops off our tail
Max: and we got so many props to work with so we're good for now
Butch: we should get some sleep, our first day starts tomorrow
