The Madness of the Circus
Chains, Pain that is all that is here. The endless days of watching people stare at you continuously. What is wrong with them or is it what is wrong with me… the only thing I recall is the pain, the feeling of being hurt but that happens to everyone here in Dark Wood Circus. When I woke up after all that happened, my head fuzzy and I didn't know where I was. My memories were blurred and whenever I try to remember I have a huge headache.
In total there are 5 or 6 of us misfits. We were brought here to perform for an audience, well so they say. However due to the extra body parts I look more like a monster. Oh…I forgot to introduce myself. I am the deformed Diva of this torture house known as The Dark Wood Circus. This is my Story…
The Dark Wood Circus is my home; even though there is nothing but pain they accepted me as one of their own. I just have to entertain the people who visit. They let an outcast like me join, that is why I am fine with going through all the pain. This to me is my family however I don't know why but I always feel queasy about the ringmaster. May be I have been overlooking things, it is probably nothing big. The clock rang as the ringmaster shouted.
"Midnight, it's time" I peered out of my cage, as lights filled my eyes. There were so many people, children and adults. I stood up as I was going onto the stage (in my cage of course) and there they were…the two headed twins.
"Hi hi, Diva-san, you ready?" asked one of the heads, I stared at the other expecting him to say something but he just turned away. The twins according to the stories and rumours used to be two people but somehow someone took them apart and stuck them to each other. The ringmaster told me that they always used to fight; however compared to these stories they seem completely different. It's strange
So there is only the blue beast to introduce, he is the real monster. I fear going anywhere near him. I far that once I stare into his icy cold eyes he would eat me. Just like he has done with other people including his parents. They opened the curtains and my cage was revealed. My job is to sit and look pretty (well as much as I could). This didn't last long, the ringleader after the show lead the audience into a small dark room.
Suddenly a multiple of screams filled the performance stage as the ringleader stepped out, covered in crimson blood. I stepped back in shock. Horror. That was the day I realised what the Dark Wood circus really was.
