I didn't send this to my beta because I wanted you guys to get it tonight that way when I wake up tomorrow morning I will have some reviews to read!
The man put the unconscious Erik on his horse and walked to the outskirts of the town, to the site of the show. All of the circus folks eyes glittered as they seen one of their biggest attractions come back to them. Some of the strong men took Erik and through him in his old cage. It was lined with hay and the bars were old and rusty.
Meg woke up to the chirping birds as the horse nuzzled her. The sounds of a bubbling stream reached her ears. She got up and led the horse to the stream. The thirsty travellersfell to their knees and drank in the beckoning bubbles. Meg decided it was time to leave when the sun started to shift a little too fast. They strolled down the dirt road with nothing but never ending trees.
After six hours of the riding they heard music. Faint, enchanting violins and fiddles filled the air. Meg sent the horse into a gallop, into the forest. The music grew stronger.
The circus camp appeared before her eyes. All of the gypsies paused their work to watch Meg be approached by Erik's new master.
"Excuse me sir, but I have lost my way. I am headed for Paris. Would you be able to show me the way?" The man had a glint in his eyes that Meg didn't like.
"Of course mademoiselle, but we are headed to Paris and we would be honored to have you join us." Meg got down from the horse and was led to a tent. Then he grabbed her and bound her. She struggled until she was thrown down onto hay covered ground.
Familiar hands unbound her.
"Meg?"She blinked, stunned to see Erik beaten so badly. They took each other in an embrace.
