~~~~~~ Lisanna's pov~~~~~~~~~
This case had been a lot of work I has spent weeks digging and sorting threw horrific things, thank Mavis for Freed, Kinana and Evergreen. Evergreen had actually been texting Kinana the information we needed to shut Fairy Hills down, Ever having access to the inside after hours had taken pictures and videos of the abuse that went on, she had a really good video of Bickslow getting canned for getting caned for spitting at Sister Mary for waking him up to conduct a random room search and he refused to face the wall. How she got it we'll never know but she did. The Celestial Star was interested in the story. Kinana had been putting it together as we speak, at this moment we were at the Snake pit after last call putting stuff together for the paper, but we were missing something. I had questioned Laxus, Bickslow and Mira. Questing my sister that was fun. At first she bit my head off for it, till she understood that he was framed. She was in the same year as him and confirmed he was bipolar but not crazy enough to kill anyone. But we were still missing something. Kinana was on her laptop searching for any information on Fantasia to see if there was anything. " Lis" she says as she turned the computer. I saw she had YouTube pulled up. " why are you playing on YouTube?" I asked her. " Just watch" she says as she pushed play. I watch as Alashar walked in the middle the ring. " Thank you my gypsy loves now than its time to dubstep with the most boneless kid I know." He says and the music starts and a light comes on him and you see Bickslow dance. I watch floored…. He was good better than Gray. Bickslow really did look like he had no bones as he bent his body and glided across the ring. It was when he was on one leg my jaw dropped. It was the same with the next video we watched. I hit the scroll button and see a name Marvelous monkey Mia. I had to get a hold of her. I have Kinana leave a comment " We need to talk about him" its not five minutes before she gets a hit back. " meet me tonight in Sabercity at the Sabercat Pub". I look at Kinana and she bats her eyelashes at Erik. " Go, I got Firelily" he says. I text Freed and let him know. Freed gives me a thumbs up, I look at my phone it was close to midnight. i grab my keys and text Mira id be home late, same emoji comes back. Kinana and I get in and we begin the four hour drive to Sabercity. While we drove I tune my phone to Two Step by Dave Matthews band. It was good driving music allowing me to just focus on the road. Out of the corner of my eye I watch as Kinana watches me drive.
I had one hand on the wheel and was using my other to shift . When I bought this car it had no drive tram or shifting kit. Gray installed a new stick shift for me in trade for watching his kid since his regular sitter was sick. I was so lost in driving that I didn't realize I was shifting to the beat of the music till I heard Kinana " one two shift " I was taking the backroads into Sabercity avoiding cops, I haven't gotten to drive, Even when Dragula comes on im still not there its just me and the road. I could almost see making this drive with Bickslow, I take the turn and feel Kinana's hand on my leg, I chuckle as I take the turn into Sabercity. Once there we were looking for a bar called Sabercat and a gray S10. I follow the directions that Mia's boyfriend Sting had given us and soon find us in a area like the had some abandoned buildings, ramshackle houses, police and drunks. I felt safe here, I see the S10 and pull in behind it. I noticed it had the same thing that was on Bickslow's face. Hatchet man. I turn my car off and lock it before we head in, I knock on the door and see a blonde guy nod, the door opens and were lead in by a tall skinny guy with black hair covering the side of his face. " You Lisanna and Kinana?" he asks " Yup" I answer " Im Sting, I'll Get Mia" he says. I nod and Sit at the bar. Its about five minutes later when he brings a girl clinging to his back out, she was tiny about a inch shorter than me, she had olive skin, dark hair and green eyes, he sets her down and that's when I see what made her the monkey girl, he feet were fused they resembled hands in a way. Sting sets her down and she smiles at me like I was her best friend in the whole world " So, I'm Mia" she says, " Lisanna" I tell her as I hold out my hand she takes it and shakes it. I watch as Sting stands behind her the other guy on the other side. " So What can you tell me about Fantasia?" I ask her, She sighs and looks up at Sting he jumps over the bar and I see him get a glass pouring her a glass of Makers Mark, he hands it to her and she drinks it in one fail swoop. " Fantasia was home, I cried when I heard what happened, It was my home everyone there was my family, it were I first fell in love." She says, after I had hit record on my phone. She saw me but said nothing as a vlogger it bother her. " I was five when Alashar found me, in a orphanage in a cage, they saw me as an animal and treated me as one. Alashar adopted me and took me to Fantasia gave me food, clothes and a home. He was a drunk sure but it was home. I grew up with all the freaks and carnie kids. Bickslow was my best friend my first love and was the father to what would have been my son." She says looking at the floor. I look at her like she was crazy " Son?" I ask " I left when I was fifteen after they picked up Rusty in Dovetown, Rusty made me nervous. I found out I was pregnant about a month after I ran away, I was homeless and couldn't afford a baby when I could barley afford to feed my self, I was scared and got a abortion, it was better that way. I didn't want him to be born with the same condition as me. i met Sting and Rouge after that." She says.
I felt sorry For Mia, I had always thought my life sucked but her was worse than mine. Gave me a sense of how much people endured to survive. " Do you believe he did it?" I asked her. " No he's bipolar not Crazy, Bickslow loved that place. It was home" she said, It was like Mia was off in her own world for a moment somewhere with hay, lights and grease paint. She shakes her head " Sorry" she says. " id have to say it was Rusty. He was jealous of what Alashar had planned. When we took up permeant residency in Magnoila it was Alasher pseudo retiring, there were rumors he was gonna name Bickslow his successor and Well Rusty didn't like it" She says. " Rusty huh" I say as I watched Kinana write it down. She really was the perfect secretary. " Look if you can get a hold of his phone, I texted him before he left that day. " she says, " Huh?" I asked and she pulls out a phone out of her pocket, it was old and cracked, she turned it on and pulls up a text " Smoke some for me" it said. I wanted to hug her but Mia went the extra mile pulling out her new phone and dialing the number it just rang till it went to voice mail and you heard a really bad recording of Halls of illusion by ICP. Like he had played it and recorded it from his phone. " I need to get a hold of that phone" I say. Mia nods, We say good bye to her and head home. I drop Kinana off and crash. Mia had been my greatest witness. When I wake up the next day its Saturday, I take a egg sandwich from Mira and head out, I was gonna be brave and go see it now….. Fantasia. I remembered it when it was running.
-Flash back-
The night was hot, muggy it always on the barrens there was a creek on the other side of it, dad had given us money to go to the carnival. I loved coming here! It was always so fun, the rides, games the shows and the FOOOD oh my gawd the food. I loved the funnel cakes, corn dogs and cotton candy but my favorite was always the rainbow float they had here. You could only get it at Fantasia! it was one of the things that made them famous, When we got there We went our separate ways. Mira went to go ride the rides Elfman who knows, I had my heart set on one of those floats. I bought on drinking it quickly the taste on my tounge was Vanilla it was soooo good, I finish it and go to play some games, I wasn't tall enough to ride some of the rides, at 11 I barley stood 4 foot. I was skipping threw when I saw it…. A giant neon purple Geko I wanted it badly….. I knew I would probably lose but mavis I wanted it. I walked over and saw Bickslow was behind the booth in a lawn chair, I put my money down and he chuckles at me. " Alright Lisanna, you have to make a ring around the bottle" he says as he takes my dollar. He hands me three rings, I throw the first one it hits but lands beside the bottles, " Close but no cigar" he says as he lights a cigarette, I throw the second one it wizzes past his head, " Bottles are over there" he says pointing to were they were, I blush, he was fucking with me. I throw the third one and it knocks them over. " Damn it!" I say, he busts out laughing. " said ring em not knock them over" he says, I slap another dollar down, " Again?" he asked. " I want that Gecko" I tell him. " Okay" he says. Again and again I never got a ring around the bottle, I was running out of money and I wanted to ride the Farris wheel before I ran completely outta money. I sighed and begun to walk away when I hear him call me, I look back and he was standing on the counter part, I see him pull the gecko off, " here" he says as he hands it to me, " But I lost?" I asked " And while it was amusing I feel bad knowing you wanted this thing" he said as he handed it to me. I took and hugged him. For the rest of the night I carried it around and it was bigger than me. even took it on the Farris wheel with me.
- End of Flashback-
I still have the Gecko, it was kinda just lounging on my desk, it had been there for awhile collecting dust, I probably should have gotten rid of it years ago but didn't. I wonder if he remembered the Geko at all. I sigh and pull down the dirt road. I stop and turn my car off, there was a huge metal gate there you could here the electrical current on the gate, "well shit" I say. Than I notice the hole it was recent like someone had cut it, I gulp and duck threw the hole, I walk in and it was like I had stepped into a horror movie. The ticket booth was still right when you walked in, I gulp and take out my phone, hitting record. I walk past there flooded with memories of buying tickets. Past the concession stand I can still smell the corn dogs, past the games, the cages were the blood that was there had dried turning brown. The toys you could win still there molded from the rain, the rides rusting from the rain, the big top was at the end of it all beside the the Zipper and Little Dragon ride. I walk in and see everything was still the same the tight rope, the ring….. everything. I leave the big top out the back and the trailers, trucks even a gypsy wagon was still there. But the gypsy wagon there was light on in there… I gulp someone was here. " HEY!" someone yells and I run threw the big top, my only thought was to get to my car. I run past the graviton sliding under it as the person runs by. He had sliver hair and wore a furred collar coat. I wait for him to disappear before running again jumping into the ring toss game to hide when I hear him move again. Ironic right? That its this game I hide in. I can hear him breathing and I grab a ring tossing it towards the creek, he hears it hit a tree and I slide out from under the game running as fast as my legs would carry me to my car, I slide threw the hole and touch the fence forgetting it was on, the shock comes hard and quick, I pissed my self as the volts course threw my body, shakily I run to my car and get in starting it, backing out I turn my whole body to back out, I don't stop backing out till I hit the pavement and than swing around driving as fast as I could. I don't even turn my phone off, I don't slow down. I had to get to Freed….., I knew I smelt like pee but I had to get to Freed. Rusty the one everyone said did it was there. Still living there….. he never left. I drive past the speed limit turning into the long drive way that was Fairy hills stopping at the gate, the guard behind it looks at me like I' m crazy. " just open it Frank" I tell him.
He says nothing as he hits the button the gate swings open and I drive in, stopping and turning my car off. I open the doors running in past the front desk. They all see me but say nothing, I run threw the main building to the criminally insane ward, scan my finger and push the doors open to the day room, they bounce with a thud, the inmates all look at me. I run past them all, " Where's the fire Kitten" I hear Bickslow yell ,I say nothing as I keep running to Freed's office. When I get there he's packing. " your not on the clock today and you smell like urine" he says. " I know" I say as I save the video to my phone. " Look were all out a job the building was sold to the state, they'll use it as overflow, were running out of time." He says. " fuck" I say. Than shake my head " look" I tell him handing him my phone. Freed takes it hitting play, watching it. When he's done he looks at me " you went there?" I nod. " Wow….. all this time he's been there?" Freed asks, I nod again. " Good Job Lis" he says. I say nothing. I was running out of time. We got the nuns out only to bring the state in. I take my phone and leave him to finish packing handing him the case. I had made copies. Freed puts it in his stuff. I walk out and walk to Bickslow. " Forget you were potty trained Kitten" he asks his tongue wagging out his mouth, " No I touched an electric fence." I said as I push play on my phone, he leans over my shoulder watching it, I hear him whimper as he watches everything he knew go by like he was watching a nightmare. Then he growls when he sees Rusty. " Do you Remember the Gecko" I ask him. " Yes" he answers back. " I still have it" I tell him. Its him who grabs me and kisses me this time. In front of everyone in the day room. " What was that for? " I ask. " I just wanted to feel your lips one more time" he says. He knew that the hospital was sold. I grab his face making him look at me pushing his hair out of his face " I wont leave you here Bix" I tell him, " Give it up Lisanna" he says as he looks away. I sigh and let him go, he goes back to staring out the window. I finally had figured it out, I was falling for him. I had to get him out. I knew how too. It would not be easy but I was gonna present my evidence to a judge and file to be Bickslow's power of Attorney,that would free him. Why was I gonna do this? Because I love him…. I head home and take a shower than begin putting it all together.
Argon: I know its because I'm Awesome! lol,
