Chapter 5: The Tour! – Part 2
Maka and Kid had been walking for a while now, all three of the tents were set up now and loaming over the pair as they walked towards the caravans. They were talking about what their childhoods were like, Kid's upbringing sounds so much more interesting than mine. He was brought up in a mansion while I was brought up in a rotting flat for crying out loud, it doesn't take a genius to tell who had a better childhood. Either way Maka listened to Kid with such interest.
When the caravan's came into sight it made Maka let out quietly "Wow!" it's beautiful! She thought as see scanned the area, all throughout the area were multi-coloured fairy lights which lit up the surrounding area making it stand out in the now darkening sky. In the centre of the circle of caravans were three long tables covered by white cloths all with piles of foods and drinks with paper plates and glasses on the side.
Just looking at the food made Maka droll slightly as they both walked closer, "See your hungry," Kid commented as Maka stared at the rows of food with an amazed look, she quickly turned to him "Oh my God, I've been here for ages now I'm eye googling your food! I'm incredibly sorry, I should go I'm intruding in your dinner!" Maka exclaimed waving her hands back and forth embarrassed of her manners.
Kid lent over slightly laughing at Maka's expression, and replied "Its fine, you should stay over for dinner, as you can see there is plenty to go around and you must be staving!" "Really, thank you so much. You are so kind!" Maka said in awe looking at Kid.
"Hello Maka! Have you got any candy?" Ragnarok shouted into Maka's ear as he jumped over to the pair talking, in response Maka swiftly turned around with book in hand bringing it down onto the hooded man's head. He fell to the ground screaming in pain, "ALL I DID WAS ASK FOR CANDY FOR CHIRST SAKE WOMAN!" he continued as he shouted out curse words as Maka gracefully leaped over the rolling figure and over to Crona who was shyly shifting side to side by the end of one of the long tables.
"Hello Crona, did you do all of this?" She asked as she drew closer to the now slightly blushing boy who just barely whispered "Y-yes" "Really?! It's amazing, you are a great cook!" She said with a smile as wide as the sun's.
"YOU'RE GOD HAS ARRIVED, YOU NEED LONGER WAIT FOR ME!" Maka turned her head to see Black*Star jumping of a random caravan onto one of the tables, "Black*Star please get off the table," Tsubaki said in a soft calm voice as she came out of the caravan which Black*Star was just on, how can she be so relaxed, I'm holding back the temptation to beat the shit out of him at the moment! Maka thought as Black*Star jumped off at Tsubaki's command, then to Maka's displeasure he decided to sprint towards her and Crona. Tsubaki silently followed with her hands held together in front of her belly.
"MAKA! I SEE YOU'VE BEEN WAITING TO SEE ME, SO YOU COULD WORSHIP THE VERY DIRT I STAND ON!" He shouted as he stood beside her with hands held up high into the sky, "You wish," Maka commented with a degusted look on her face. Black*Star in result turned around sharply, clearly pissed and stomped towards the food not bothering to stop to grad a plate and stuffed his face full of food in a pig fashioned way.
"I'm so sorry for his behaviour, I'm so glad to see you again Maka! How was your tour?" Tsubaki said as she took Black*Star's place, "Oh, don't worry. And I'm so glad in meeting you again, Kid gave me a great tour. This place is truly beautiful, I love how most of the place is based on black, red and sliver it's truly a unique design!" Maka said with a gentle smile to match Tsubaki's.
"I know, Soul pretty much designed the whole circus himself including the colours!" At the mention of the name Maka's smile transformed quickly into a grim expression, "Soul, huh." Her voice blank and low.
"I apologise for his behaver, he's always like that to new comers. He's really a softie at the core, he just needs a little warming up to that's all" Tsubaki exclaimed to Maka as she crossed her hands over her puffed out chest.
"See your trying to make your breasts larger, tiny tits, I'm sorry I have to break it to you but that's not gonna work." Soul's voice travelled as he walked out from one of the caravans behind Maka, she slowly turned around ready to whoop some arse. But when her eye's meet the figure she froze, he was in a black suit with white pinstripes going down it. Underneath the jacket he was wearing a red shirt with a red tie to bend in, Maka hadn't properly looked at his figure the first time they meet. She only just realized he was one or two inches taller than herself slouching with his hands stuffed in his pockets, Maka could only just make out his muscly build but not as much as Black*Star's. His stark white hair was sticking out all over the place yet it still looked under control, they definitely matched his sharp shark teeth which he was showing off with his signature wide side grin.
Maka blushed at the sight as her eyes explored his own blood red eyes, he's handsome… Maka thought as they both intensely looked at each other's eyes silently, she was speechless, no words could come to her mind for help, what the hell is going on?!
And for the first time Maka was glad as Black*Star leaped in-between both of them shouting "SOUL, MY BRO YOU'VE GOT TO EAT THIS CHICKEN! I COMMAND YOU AS YOUR GOD!" With that he dragged away Soul behind the caravan he just came out of, out of the trance of his beautiful eyes. Maka quickly turned back around looking down at her feet having a staring competition with her boots, letting her bangs cover her deep red face.
"Are y-you ok M-Maka?" She heard Crona ask in front of her, when her blush had mostly gone away she slowly lifted her eyes, to see Tsubaki, Kid and Crona staring at her with worried looks.
"I'm fine, sorry about it!" She quickly explained, "You're slightly flustered, do you feel faint?" Tsubaki asked with a worried frown, with that Maka sprint-walked towards the paper plates shouting over her shoulder "I'm fine, just a bit hungry that's all!"

"What the hell was that about bro?" Black*Star asked Soul as he lent against one of the caravans, they were on the outside away from everyone else. "I have no idea . . ." Soul whispered as he rubbed his forehead, his face was slightly flustered, so uncool!
What the hell was that? When she was looking me up and down I was going to tease her about checking me out, but . . . but then she looked me in the eyes. I couldn't help but get lost in those sparkling emerald green eyes, it was like getting lost in a magical forest. I-It was beautiful.
"I don't know man . . ."He said as he lent down rubbing his eyes, why can't I get her out of my head? Argh, this is so uncool!

Oh my God! This food is amazing! Maka thought as she was eating through the contents of her paper white plate, everyone at the circus was here now digging away at their food. She already been introduced to all of them by now by Kid, Tsubaki and the Thompson sisters, all together there were 17 people to Kid's dismay, 'One away from 18! One!' There was Ox, Kirik and Harver who were in charge of lighting and sound and also in setting everything up. While Crona and Ragnarok were in charge of setting up the cooking tent and providing food for both the staff and the customers during the breaks ext. Then there was Kim and Jacqueline who do fire breathing and other fire related tricks. There's also Free and Eruka who do tricks with animals, Stein and Marie in which Stein does knife tricks with Marie as his pretty assistant. Liz and Patty did acrobatic tricks together, in which Kid sometimes joined them but he mainly was in charge of organising everything venues, dates and prices ext. Black*Star was the dare devil but also did a lot of weights, and Tsubaki who did tricks on her white horse called 'Bloom'. And finally Soul acted as the Ring master while doing motorcycle tricks on the side.
Wow, this circus is pretty cool! I can't wait to see them actually do their acts! Maka thought as she munched away at her chicken, "Hey Maka, how are you?" Liz said as she walked up to beside Maka with Patty behind her eating away of two mountains of food on plates on both hands, "I'm fine thank you, I see Patty likes her food!" She said while looking into Patty's direction, in reply the short blond grinned like the moon and said "Not as much as I like giraffes!" "Patty! What have I told you about eating with your mouth full?!" Liz said crossing her hands over her chest and looking down slightly at her sister, "Sorry sis," Patty said after gulping down her food, in which she just picked another piece of Mont Foodalious.
"Any way, how's your relationship with Soul going?" Liz said as she turned back to Maka slightly leaning forward, at the question Maka's face went as bright as a tomato and quickly answered back "What are you saying?!" Maka practically shouted which turned one or two heads resulting in Maka's face turning even brighter than it was even emitting a light source.
"Well he's been looking at you intensely all of this evening so far, and been giving the evil stare to any male that dares go in a mile radiance of you," Liz said in a hushed tone so only her and Patty could hear, Maka followed Liz's quick glance over to Soul who was indeed staring at her directly leaning supported against one of the caravans by his foot. She was not surprised to see he was in a slouching procession with his hands stuffed into his pockets, as soon as she caught her eyes in his he quickly turned around avoiding her gaze, weird.
"Look I don't know what's going on inside that moron's head, but I know for sure that he is womanizing jerk with a monster of a motorcycle. I have nothing to do with him in the slightest!" Maka exclaimed as she turned back to Liz with a serious expression on unluckily she still had a slight blush painting her cheeks, "Well your cheeks say otherwise!" Liz said with a sly grin as she leaned backwards with her hands on her hips while Patty started to giggle, Maka's face glowed bright red again thanks to the comment resulting in Patty laughing her heart out on the floor. This caught a lot of attention with questionable stares and glances, Maka just hung her head in shame hiding her face with her bangs so no one else would release she was blushing madly out of control.
This attempt clearly didn't work as she heard a worried voice next to her, "M-Maka are y-you ok?" Maka faced upwards to see Crona looking at her with a worried expression, "I'm fine, I probably should get going any way, the dinner was amazing Crona!" Maka exclaimed as she smiled at the shy timid boy, who blushed at the comment of his food. "I-It was n-no prob-blem, Bye." He said quietly that Maka had to strain her hearing to catch it all, in reply she gave Crona a quick hug then started her way out of the circus and home, also quickly saying goodbye to serval other people on her way out. Before leaving the circle of caravans she heard a similar voice shouting out "CRONA AND MAKA SIT-" in which Maka threw a book at but he had learnt and dodged it, "HA, I AVIODED IT BIT-" but was quickly cut off by three books being flung at his face at once. Maka couldn't help but smile slightly as she heard laughter from behind her and a very loud groaning noise.
