The children trailed back to the main tent. The day was over and that meant it was time to rest and wait for another day to start. It wasn't what they expected. They never had expected what happened next...
The moment that Black walked into the tent and headed towards the cage he felt a bad feeling. He just felt that something was off. He hadn't had a feeling like this before. Not since his mom sold him to the Circus. Upon arriving at the cage Black screamed. Ruby was on top of Gold, just beating the crap out of him. Gold wasn't making any moves to defend himself, he was only taunting Ruby and encouraging it. This wasn't right!
"C'mon! I know that you can do better! Bring it on Ruby! C'mon you prissy ass faggot! Do your worst! I can take it!" Gold screamed as Ruby continued to punch him. The pain didn't hurt too much, in fact Gold couldn't really feel it. It was almost as if this wasn't real. Gold closed his eyes. Only opening them when he heard Black scream.
Ethan jumped up. Black had screamed. That could only mean that something bad was happening. Ethan hurried towards the main cages with Hilbert and Hilda following.
Walking back wasn't that big of a deal. Usually the others would just be quiet and some would run ahead. Never had anything big happened before. At least they thought that. The moment that Diamond heard the scream he just bolted. He wanted to help. He just left Hiro alone. He soon met up with N. "I guess you heard that also." N said softly. Diamond just nodded his head. What could be happening? There was still quite a few guests in the Circus. Never had a scream been this loud!
"GET OFF OF HIM!" Ethan shouted at Ruby. He was ready to cry. Ruby just continued his attack. "GET OFF OF HIM YOU BIG BULLY!" Ethan screamed as he threw himself at Ruby. Ruby stopped his attack on Gold and turned his attention to Ethan. Gold was just a bit dazzled. Had Ethan really just thrown himself at one of the most dangerous people at the Circus? It just couldn't be. Ethan stood his ground and glared at Ruby. Ethan then spoke in a clear voice. "Leave him alone you asshole."
The cries that followed were so loud. The howls of pain was just so heartbreaking. Blue knew that Ethan was being hurt then. Guests occasionally stopped and asked her and Green what the screaming was about. "Oh it's nothing. We're just trying out something for Halloween." Green lied. Having to lie hurt. But they were used to it.
Silver was helping Platinum to the main tent. The screams alerted him to the fact that something bad was happening. Silver gritted his teeth and continued to help Platinum. He just really wanted to leave Platinum and check out what was happening but he knew that would be bad. He had to help in any way he could.
Ruby yanked Ethan up by his hair. Ethan just let out a shrill scream of pain. It hurt so badly. The pain was just too much for the younger male. "LET ME GO! LET ME GO! PLEASE STOP!" Ethan begged as tears streamed down his face. Why wouldn't Ruby just stop?! Ruby let out a growl as he threw Ethan against the cage. Ethan was dazzled and couldn't do anything when Ruby started to beat him up.
"Stop! Stop it Ruby!" Black shouted. It wasn't going to be any use. Ruby wouldn't stop until he was finished. Black quickly ran over to Gold. "Are you okay?" Black asked softly. Gold just didn't answer. He just stared at the ceiling of the tent. "Gold...?" Black asked, now a bit worried. "...They all die..." Gold said hoarsely. Black felt creeped out now. "What do you mean?" Black asked. "I kill them." Gold stated darkly.
The group of five had just been getting ready to find Crystal when they heard the screams. Brendon was the one who first suggested that they go find out what was making the screams.
The doors of the cage suddenly flung open. A figure was shoved in. Everyone stopped and stared. Eyes filled with curiosity looked at the newcomer. The sounds of chains really caught their attention. Gold was the first one who approached. He wasn't too sure about the newcomer. Chains usually meant bad news. He didn't speak at all, he mainly just stared. Ethan was the next to come over. "...Is she okay?" He asked. Gold just shrugged his shoulders, a small smile at his lips.
It turned out that this newcomer wasn't only chained but her mouth was sewed shut also. Ethan wasn't too pleased by that. "How can we talk to her? How can we chat? How can we figure out her name? How will we know her ability?" Ethan asked as he stared at Gold. Gold just shrugged his shoulders before walking towards the other. He wanted to speak with her but felt like she needed some rest.
Ethan walked over and poked the other. "Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey..." Ethan said as he continued to poke. The girl only gave a puzzled look before attempting to shoo the other away. "No. No. No. No. I need to understand." Ethan explained before climbing into her lap. "Ethan get off." Gold said. The girl really didn't understand what was going on. "...Ethan... I think Lyra's calling you." Gold said. Ethan jumped up and took off running. Sorry about that! Ethan's just likes to cling to people!The girl was startled and attempted to find the source of the voice.Sorry. My ability is talking through my mind. Name's Gold. Oh yea, it's a two-way thing. You can talk back.Um... Okay then... What's your name?My name is Rogue...
