Here´s another chapter :) Hope you enjoy it and can look through the mistakes there might be.

Emma was confused as she sat in the seamstress´ wagon watching Tink and the seamstress talking amongst themselves about the white suit Tink was holding. The seamstress turned around and studied Emma.

"Turn around" She said, and Emma did as she was told. "Hmm, yes. I can do it, but it will take a few hours"

"Great. It will give us time to practice" Tink said to Emma who just nodded.

"Let me take her measurements and then you can go" The seamstress found her tape measure and quickly did her thing. Soon Emma and Tink were sitting in Tink´s wagon.

"We need to find some clothes for you. You can´t keep those" Tink said and pointed to the torn clothes Emma had on. Emma shrugged as Tink opened her trunk to find something she could wear. "Here!" She threw a white t-shirt at Emma and some black pants. "This could do for now" She said with a smile. "Now, get dressed" Tink sat down at her table and let Emma redress.

"There are some things I would wish I could forget, but to totally wipe out your memory… That must be a tough one" Emma washed her face clean. "What a shock you must have gotten". Emma looked up at her as she dried her face. "What should we call you? We can´t keep calling you blondie" She chuckled. Emma pulled op her pants, they were a little tight, but it was working for now. "Oh, I know!" Tink exclaimed, not taking notice that she was practically talking to herself now. "How about Miss X? That brings some mystery about you and people likes that stuff! And you must be X something, right?"

"Yeah, I suppose" Emma muttered as she ran a brush through her hair.

"Don't you want to know who you are?" Emma stopped what she was doing at looked at Tink.

"In a way no. It´s hard to explain, but when I think about the past, I feel something threatening" She began brushing again. "Like, something´s not as it should be" A knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

"Come in" Tink yelled and the door opened to reveal Kelly. Tink rolled her eyes.

"I´m not interrupting anything, am I?" She asked sweetly and walked inside. "I heard you´re fixing Garibaldi´s costume?" Kelly eyed Emma´s toned upper body with a smirk.

"Yes" Tink said shortly and Emma quickly put on her white shirt. Not liking they way Kelly was looking at her.

"I came to offer my help" Kelly said and sat down on the bed. Tink´s eyes widened.

"You did what? I´m shocked!" She said in a laugh and looked briefly at Emma. Kelly just turned her attention to the blonde, who was now pulling her blonde her up in a ponytail.

"I haven't had the opportunity to meet you properly. My name is Kelly, what´s yours?" She asked, knowing the woman doesn't have a clue.

"She´s Miss X" Tink interrupted.

"Well, that´s a good name for the public. What´s your name privately?" Tink rolled her eyes at the dumb woman. Didn't she understand anything. Emma looked at the woman with a frown before looking down at a newspaper lying on the bed.

"Kim" She answered.

"What?" Tink asked confused.

"Kim?" Kelly asked. "Why not? It fits you" Emma discreetly rolled her eyes at the woman. "You played wonderfully at the flute. I love music" Tink laughed mockingly.

"Yeah, right"

"Shut up" Kelly said to Tink annoyed.

"You are a real saint, aren't you? You just love music" Tink mocked in a high-pitched voice. Kelly sat up and leaned forward.

"Do you think you´re funny?"

"It´s what I do" Tink grinned.

"Stupid clown!" Kelly hissed at the blonde as she stood up.

"It´s what I am!" Tink smirked and laughed as the black-haired woman stormed out of the wagon. "I think she got mad" She said with another laugh. Emma joined in with a small chuckle and sat down in front on Tink.

"She´s a beautiful woman. What is she doing here?" She asked.

"Trouble, if she can get away with it, but I´ll give it to her. She looks damn good in the knife throwing number we have. Her partner loves her deeply and madly. Poor guy" Tink shook her head and looked at Emma. "Well, you fixed up nicely. Now, to the number"

"Yeah, I must admit. I´m not excited to perform in front of strangers" Emma said nervously.

"Don't think about it. We´ve all been through it the first time we did it. It´ll go just fine" She smiled at the nervous blonde and went outside to get the suit for Emma. The tent was filled with people who wanted to watch the circus. Children laughing with joy as they watched acrobats in the air and horses in the arena. Ashley was climbing up at small ladder to perform her trapeze number with Sean. As she reached the metal, she held on to it with her hands and lifted herself up to sit on the metal bar as Sean quickly crawled up the ladder to join her. Ashley hang on with her knees as she pulled out a long metal pole for Sean to hang onto as it swung it air. They were followed by Jack and Kelly with their knife throwing number. Kelly stood attached to the round wood piece as Jack nervously threw the knives. He usually was an amazing artist, but since he´d found Kelly, he had been nervous in every act they had performed. Tink was finishing Emma´s makeup. She was painted all white on her face, and black lips. It was what Garibaldi had been wearing. To change it up, she had painted only one eyebrow.

"That should do it" Tink said and sat back looking at her, if she should say it herself, masterpiece. Emma looked in the mirror and chuckled.

"I´m looking weird"

"You´re looking perfectly. Like a clown" She smirked. Emma smiled at looked at herself in the mirror again.

"I can´t even recognize myself. You forgot an eyebrow?"

"Do you have no culture?" Tink sighed. "Have you ever seen a white clown with two eyebrows?" She asked. "I´m shocked!" Emma shrugged. "Get your clothes on, then I´ll go see how far they are" She stood up and left the wagon in her own costume. Emma looked at herself again and swallowed hard as she stood up to put on the white costume. The seamstress had turned the suit into a beautiful white dress. She had a hunch that the seamstress had made a whole new dress to her. It had a lace top, and went down below her ankles, but not too much. It had an open slit, but it fitted the dress beautifully. Emma liked it, even though she was nervous about showing as much skin as she did. She took a deep breath as she put it on. Tink was dressed and ready to make an outstanding performance. She was happy to finally have a companion with her in the arena. She was dressed in a green tulle dress that stopped midthigh. It had a sweetheart neckline, fully beaded bodice and a lace up back. Her face was also painted in white, but with full red lips, adorned with small hearts and a heavy black makeup around her eyes. Her hair was curled into a big mess and had green streaks into it. To finish the attire, she had a small green hat. Tink loved her outfit and wasn't afraid to show off her body. As she walked towards the tent, she saw a little boy sneak his way along the tent's sides. She chuckled to herself as she watched him crawl onto his knees and lifted the side to look under.

"What a little sneak" She muttered and walked over to him. She reached under and dragged him out. "What do you think you´re doing?" She asked seriously. The boy looked afraid up at her, he couldn't be more than six. "Do you know what we´re doing with someone like you? We´re throwing them into the lion´s dent!" He looked so afraid that Tink felt a bit bad about making fun of him. "But because you´re so cute, I´m letting you go" He smiled widely up at her. "So, you want to see the circus?"

"Yes, ma´am" He said sweetly.

"What do you want to see?"

"The horses" Tink smiled at the little boy.

"Oh, then you´ll have to hurry, they´re about to enter the arena" She pulled out some money for the boy to take. "Here, go to the main entrance and then find yourself a seat. Hurry up" She put the money in his hands and turned him around. "Go on" He turned around to face her again. "What is it?"

"I want to say thank you. You´re- "

"I´m a clown, I know. Go on!" She said and smiled. He laughed and ran around the tent to find the entrance. She stood with her hands on her hips as she watched him run away. She sighed and turned around just in time to see Ashley and Sean walked hand in hand.

"Ashley, Sean! How many are there tonight?" She asked.

"Around five thousand" Tink nodded happily. That was good. "Who´s in the arena at the moment?"

"Granny" Ashley said and smiled.

"Oh, then I better go get Kim. We´re up next" She said and hurried back to her wagon. As she walked away, the young couple smiled at each other and hid behind a wagon. They took what time they could get and right now, Mitchell was nowhere to be seen. "Wow…" Tink said as she saw Emma walk down the stairs towards her. "I´m impressed. Are you ready?" Emma shook her head no and Tink chuckled. "You´ll be" She grabbed Emma´s hand and took her to the arena.

"Ladies and gentlemen" The ringmaster spoke loudly. "You will now experience a real sensation!"

"So, this is it" Tink said to Emma. "Just relax and have fun. I´ll see you in a bit" She said and took on big tonal bass drum with a smile. Emma nodded nervously and walked away to her spot and waited for her cue.

"We have succeeded in engaging the world-renowned flute player; Miss X!" The ringmaster yelled, and the music began playing as the helpers pulled away the curtain for Tink to walked out as she drummed stupidly on the drum. The ringmaster looked mad, of course it was an act, as she walked around in the arena as she followed the rhythms of the music. A small boy stood up in the crowd.

"I´m right here!" He yelled and Tink laughed as she waved at the little boy. Tink walked closer to the ringmaster and walked around him, making a sad face at his mad. The ringmaster reached out and stopped Tink in her drumming.

"You can´t play on that drum without my permission!" Tink just laughed and hit the man gently on top of his head with her drumstick. As she did so, a drum sound sounded. She giggled and hit the man once more as people laughed along with her.

"It´s wrong. Boom" She said as she hit him again. "Yu must see a docteer" She spoke with an accent. She grinned and walked away laughing as she played the drums again. The ringmaster followed her pulled off the drum.

"You have to do what I say!"

"Ooh, what do yu say?" The ringmaster smirked as he lifted the drum and threw it away breaking it in the process, before walking away. Tink looked sadly at drum and pouted as the audience laughed. She stomped away, before cheering up as she found a bucket. She smiled widely and jumped around as she pulled out a purse full of glitter. She sat down on the arena and filled the bucket with glitter before grinning madly as she walked towards the ringmaster. "I make big number! One" She said as she whirred around the bucket in her hands. She looked away and giggled as the audience did too. "Twooo" The ringmaster held up his hands.

"Wait a second. I´ll help you. I´ll spin the bucket and you´ll count, alright?" Tink clapped her hands grinningly as she jumped on the spot. He began to spin the bucket around in circles.

"Ooneee. Twooo…." Tink laughed again as she clapped her hands. She hated the glitter, it was a bitch to get out of her clothes, but it was a part of her character. "Three!" She said, and the ringmaster threw the glitter in her face. He laughed and walked away with the bucket. Tink stood silently in her spot before turning as she puffed out some glitter from her mouth. Emma took this as her cue and quickly walked behind the audience and took the few steps up to stand amongst them. The music began to play and Tink looked around in fake confusion as Emma began to play on her flute. The audience turned to look at the stunning blonde walking down the stairs playing a happy melody as she entered the arena. Tink twirled around in her spot, looking like a ballerina as she danced to Emma´s melody. Emma walked around her, and winked at her, all traces of nervousness gone. Tink smiled at her and blew some glitter in the air as Emma walked graciously around in the arena. Tink pulled out a violin and joined her partner, but only playing in a very shrill note. Emma stopped playing and put her hands on her hips as she looked at the green clown. The ringmaster ran out in the arena and pulled away the violin before Tink could go on. Tink looked confused at him before looking back at Emma who shrugged with a smile. She stepped down from the edge of the arena and made her way out of it, as Tink pulled out a miniature violin and began to play on it. Emma stopped in her track and looked back at her as she watched Tink play a small melody. She walked towards her and bowed for the clown with a smile. Tink giggled before bowing for the audience. The helpers found two chairs and put them in front of the two. Emma sat down and crossed her legs. Tink followed but, as rehearsed fell on her butt, which made the audience laugh. She shrugged at Emma and sat down next to her. The light dimmed and only a projector was on the two clowns. Emma had remembered a melody, which she had suggested for them to play together and Tink had agreed. She didn't know how she knew the melody, just that she called it ´A melody about love´. It was a wonderful melody, and something had told Emma that this was it for them to perform. They finished it and the audience applauded them at they bowed and left the arena.

"That was amazing!" Emma had said excited when the curtain behind them had fallen.

"I know, right? You were absolutely amazing, Kim!" Tink said and smiled widely to the other blonde. "Now, let´s get out of this costume! We´re done for tonight" Emma nodded and followed the woman towards their wagon for a change of clothes. It was later when the tent was all packed and they were on the road, that Emma woke with a small jump. She sat up and looked at Tink, who were snoring lightly in her own bed. Emma looked out the window at the passing threes and tried to remember the woman she had dreamed about. All she could remember was the kind eyes, she couldn't even remember the eye colour. She sighed frustrated before falling back down in her bed and closed her eyes.

They had been on the road for almost three weeks and Emma was popular amongst the circus people. She had decided to let the past be past and just live her life for now. She was walking towards her wagon after getting bottles of water to her and Tink.

"Kim!" A young girl yelled to the blonde. "Look at me!" Emma looked at the small girl doing a flip perfectly.

"That was very good. You´re getting better, Amy" She said and smiled to the young girl who flashed a smile to Emma and continued her practicing. Kelly watched as the blonde talked to the young girl and quickly threw her already lit cigarette to the ground, before pulling out a new one. Emma continued her walking and saw Kelly leaning up against her own wagon with a cigarette.

"Kim? Any chance you got a lighter?" She smiled flirtatiously as she waved her cigarette. Emma nodded and pulled out her lighter to lit up her cigarette. "Thank you" Kelly said and blew out some smoke. "You have been some lucky charm for us, huh? Every show had been sold out, ever since you joined us" Emma shrugged as she blushed.

"Yeah…"

"Do you like it here?" Kelly asked.

"Yeah, I´m getting used to it" Emma said as she scratched her neck uncomfortably. Something about Kelly always made her nervous and not in the good kind. Emma had early on noticed how she liked the fairer gender rather than the other. Something she had told Tink, who had nothing against it.

"Have you seen Tink?" Ruby asked as she came from behind them. Emma and Kelly looked up at her.

"Yes, she´s in the food tent" Emma said.

"Thanks. Hello, Kelly" Ruby sneered. She didn't like that woman, and had told her Granny, but she was a great artist and that was what mattered.

"Ruby…" Kelly smirked.

"Well, I better get on my way" Emma said and quickly left Kelly to herself. Ruby entered the tent and saw Tink munching on a piece of cake.

"Tink, Granny wants to talk to you" Tink looked up at her midbite.

"Did she say my name or?"

Ruby laughed as she knew what Tink meant by it. "Yes, she said Tink" She knew that this time it wasn't a positive thing but decided to let Granny tell it herself.

"Great! Then it´s nothing bad" She swallowed her cake and went on her way. Ruby turned to Belle, who was catering the dinner today.

"Hi, Belle" She said with a small smile.

"Hi, Rubes. Anything I can help you with?" Ruby smirked and quickly looked around before leaned forward and pecked the brunette's lips. Tink knocked on Granny´s door and went inside. She saw Granny sitting on her couch looking distressed.

"Sit down, Tink. I have some unfortunate things to talk to you about" Tink frowned as she sat down.

"What´s wrong?" She asked.

"You know how I always save the day´s income in a leather bag in that closet behind me" Tink nodded. "I had several days´ income. About seventeen thousand dollars. They are gone" She said gravely. It might seem weird that Granny spoke to Tink about all of this, but Tink had been a part of this family forever and Granny could always trust her.

"Gone?!" Tink asked shocked. "You mean, really gone?" She had a feeling where this was going.

Granny nodded. "Yes".

"If you think it´s Kim, then you´re wrong. I´ll tell you that!" Granny looked down before raising her head to look at Tink again.

"I would very much believe it isn't her. I like her"

"She´s been a blessing to this circus" Tink said. Granny nodded. She knew that, but she had her doubt.

"Who else could it be? We´ve known everyone else for years!" Tink looked at her with an arced eyebrow. "Yes, I know who you´re thinking about. Mitchell Herman, but he was here to get an early payment, so it couldn't possible be him" Tink bit her lip.

"Kim? No, it can´t be" She muttered to herself.

"I think she disappears when we get to Boston. Have you thought about that she might be a thief? A spy? Or an international criminal?" Granny said with a stern expression. Tink chuckled.

"God, Granny" She stood up as she laughed. She walked towards the door before turning around. "You´re the most beautiful person, I´ve ever known and I love you endlessly" She ran a hand trough her blonde hair. "But I think your imagination is running a bit wild at the moment" She laughed once more before walking away from Granny.

"Where are you going?" Granny yelled at her.

"Back to my work. If anyone here had taken that money, they´ll bring them back. I know it" Tink said and walked away. Tink walked quickly towards her wagon and stepped inside. Emma wasn't there, so she took the opportunity to look around. Not that she believed Emma had done it, but she had to be sure. She heard the stair creak and quickly sat down on her bed as Emma came into view.

"What are you sitting there for?" Emma asked with a smile as she sat down the bottles of water for tonight´s show.

"Yeah…" Tink muttered and stood up. She sat down in front of the mirror and prepared all of her make up. Emma eyed her but didn't say anything. She saw a picture on Tink´s mirror.

"Who´s that?" She had seen it before but haven't asked about before now. Tink looked up at the picture and smiled sadly.

"It´s my brother" She said sadly. Emma sensed the sadness and regretted asking.

"Oh, sorry if I asked about something that isn't my- "

"No, don't be sorry. It happened many years ago. He died in an accident when we were travelling with this circus. My parents were alcoholics and one day when I was out in the city to get some new fabrics, they had been drinking a lot. I didn't know and when I came back, he was gone. We looked for him everywhere and we found him in a pond nearby. I´ve never forgiven myself for leaving him that day. I think Granny still feels guilty, but it was my parents' fault. Nobody else. They died in a car accident a few years later"

"I´m so sorry" Emma whispered. Tink sighed sadly and nodded.

"It was a long time ago and you have to move on" Tink said and began to apply her make up. Emma didn't say anything as she began to prepare herself for tonight.
