Ivan led Micos to the camp. He could see a bunch of different trailers, each with the names of the people who lived in there. Ivan finally stopped at one trailer, which had the names "Luisa" and "Alejandro" on the door.

"ALEJANDRO! WHAT THE HEL?"

"I'M SORRY! YOU KNOW HOW MY INSTINCTS KICK IN AT WEIRD TIMES"

"I KNOW! BUT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS WEEK YOU'VE RIPPED UP MY BEDSHEETS!"

Ivan's smile quickly became a frown when he heard this dialogue that was coming from in the trailer. He opened the door.

Micos saw a woman with dark brown hair and… -red skin?- tackling a black haired man who had a mane the same color as his hair and whiskers, not to mention cat ears and a tail. The woman (who he assumed was Luisa) was currently strangling the man (who he also guessed was Alejandro) on the floor and banging his head on the floor while the man was trying to get her to stop by grabbing her hands with his. Micos sweatdropped at the scene.

Ivan cleared his throat to get their attention. Both of them immediately stopped what they were doing and stared at Ivan. Luisa quickly got off of Alejandro and stopped strangling him and stood upright while Alejandro did the same thing.

"What was that about?" Ivan asked.

"n-nothing!" both of them said, visibly shaking.

"hm. alright then. I'll just let you off this once, da? anyway, I am here to introduce your new trailer mate! His name is Micos!" Ivan stepped away slightly so both Luisa and Alejandro could take a look at Micos. Micos had his head down in shame. Both Luisa and Alejandro had a look of pity on their faces.

Ivan not seeming to notice, smiled. "You will both tell him what is expected of him, da?" not waiting to hear their responses, he pushes Micos into the trailer, which only ended with Micos faceplanting onto the floor. Ivan then closed the door and left.

Luisa quickly helped Micos up, the latter groaning. "Are you alright?" she asked, he skin turning becoming a light pink. With the blank look Micos gave him, Luisa quickly said "nevermind", her skin turning yellow.

Alejandro rolled his eyes and sat down next to Luisa. "the guy was turned into a part lizard thing, of course he's not alright" he said to Luisa, as if she was an idiot.

"S-Shut up overgrown housecat!" Luisa yelled back, her skin turning red.

"c-can someone please explain to me w-what's happening?" Micos asked in a surprisingly small voice.

Alejandro and Luisa took their attention away from the fight they would've probably had and turned it to him.

"basically, you got scammed into becoming a performance slave to the frigid Russian bastard" Alejandro said.

Luisa glared at Alejandro and quickly showed concern to Micos. "what he MEANS is that life is going to be much different now." She said, her skin turning light pink again. "What Ivan likes to do is entice people with bad lives to join the circus, and then turn them into something in the most painful way possible. Her turns some people into partial animals, like you and Alejandro, while he might turn someone else into something completely different just for his amusement."

Micos tried to let this all sink in. "r-really?"

Luisa nodded.

"Not to mention that if you're turned part animal there's some really annoying side effects" Alejandro added, unsheathing the claws in his right hand. "You get these weird urges from your animal side that you absolutely have to follow, or else you feel like you're going insane."

Luisa nodded. "Hence why Alejandro teared up my sheets. Again." Luisa glared at Alejandro, who only smiled sheepishly.

"Blame the lion side, not me" he said.

Luisa rolled her eyes.

"T-then, what are you?" Micos asked.

"Well, you might've noticed my skin changes color." Micos nodded at this statement. "Well, Ivan decided it would be fun if my skin changed colors depending on my mood." Luisa explained, annoyed.

"So basically, Chiquita is a human mood ring" Alejandro said matter-of-factly.

Luisa eyetwtiched. "I told you not to fucking call me that!" she said, her skin becoming red again.

"and I've told you to make me!" Alejandro shot back smirking. He then was promptly slapped in the face.
Just as Alejandro was about to rant at her, Luisa quickly scratched Alejandro behind the ears, like a person would do to a cat. Immediately, Alejandro closed his eyes in happiness and started purring.

While this exchange was going on, Micos took the time to look around at the trailer he would have to call "home". It was rather small, and there weren't many things in it. The walls were an off-white color and there didn't seem to be beds, but sheets and pillows on the floor. The ripped up ones with a bunch of patches Micos guessed were Luisa's. There was an open closet which didn't have that many clothes in there. He noticed that there was a jaguar sleeping in the closet, wait what?"

While Micos was wondering why the hell there was a sleeping jaguar in the closet, Luisa has stopped scratching Alejandro behind the ears. When this stopped, Alejandro realized the humiliating thing he just did and glared at Luisa. "I keep on telling you to stop doing that! Stop stripping me of my manliness~~!"

Luisa just smirked. She then noticed Micos looking at the jaguar. "oh! That's just my pet jaguar Pelucha! She used to be a dog but…" Luisa trailed off.

Micos understood what she meant. Ivan had turned the dog into a jaguar. He finally noticed a full length mirror in the room. He stared at his reflection, still not believing that the person in it was him. He tail twitched. He felt so disgusting…

Micos felt a pair of arms encircle him and he was pulled close to Luisa, who was hugging him. He looked up at her, confused.

"It's okay to cry, you know…" She said softly, stroking his hair. Micos noticed that he had tears brimming in his eyes. Everything still didn't make sense. All he knew was that he was part lizard now, his body still hurt, and this girl was saying that he could cry about it.

So he did.

Micos suddenly felt himself sobbing all over Luisa's shirt, shaking while doing so. Everything was just getting from bad to worse! How did he get wrapped up into this? It was so confusing!

Alejandro didn't say anything while Luisa held Micos while he was crying. He knew exactly what the guy was going through. When he had been turned part lion, he had been so confused and his body hurt for days. Luisa, who had only been changed a few months before him, had helped him get through it too, though he would never admit it. He also knew that Micos was probably asking the same question to himself over and over.

Why me?
