I was going to change my mind and go for Frank and Felix first, but I can do that later. Deadly Nerd, this is for you!

Leo's POV

Four Days Ago

I was in my bunk preparing some stuff. Jason was sitting on my bunk. "You're not serious about this, are you, Leo? Please, tell me you're not serious. I mean seriously, c'mon, Jason! Tell him he's not serious" Piper says slightly confused on whether what she should be feeling about this.

Jason was trying to hide a smile when he said, "Leo, you are not serious"

"Hey, it'll be fun! I promise I'll give you souvenirs and when I'll get back before they catch me and when I get back I'll do it riding an elephant on top of a clown!" I smirk fiddling with some tool.

"I'd offer for you to come . . ." I say knowing what they'll reply

"No way, bro, if you want to run away to go back and be expelled you are on your own" Jason says grinning.

"I'M GOING WITH YOU!" Piper says and I whisper to her "You could, but then, if you don't, you'll get to spend some one on one with Jason" I sang.

She turned red and mumbled something that was suspiciously like why would I want that

I smirk at them secretly relieved that they're not going to come.

"Okay, man, I know I won't come with you, but, I'll help you escape, good luck with the circus, bro! Enjoy! OH and don't forget to show us all your magic machine gizmos that you'll use for the circus!" Jason says and I smile at him.

This is why I don't want them along this little circus for a week prank. I wasn't really going to use tools for the magic show . . . I'm gonna be Leo the hottest man on earth and there is no way I want them to know how abnormal I am . . . .

Zia's POV

Present Day

I've been getting comfortable around the mansion and I've been busy too. We've got a lot of new comers, and some of them were fire users so I had some kids to teach.

Carter and I were supposed to watch a movie, but I had spent too much time training one of our new comers.

I wanted to speak to Carter but he wasn't at the meeting place also! He wouldn't have left if he was here already, that was un-Carter of. So it means he was late too.

I saw a running figure that was Carter and he was panting when he got to me. I laughed. "Hey," I say smiling.

He was trying to say hey back but was panting to hard which just made me laugh because it made him cute. I pecked him on the cheek which made him stop panting for a moment, blush, and take an intake of breath. Really cute. I smiled at him.

"I'm sorry I'm late. I had to talk to Alyssa" Carter says. I raise an eyebrow.

"It's nothing. She was practicing in a park, and she dug a whole too deep, as in very deep, drained her magic so she couldn't get out. The lack of magic made her hallucinate, I think" he says scrunching his eyebrows together. "Why?" I say reaching for his hand and he intertwined our fingers.

"She hallucinated that someone jumped in a cliff she dug and got her out. She kept trying to convince us to help her find her because she thinks she follows the path of Geb too but the hallucinated person seems to think that Jesus is part of Egyptian Mythology"

I let out a laugh. "Well yeah, draining too much magic makes you hallucinate sometimes" I say which was kind of true.

"Sorry, I'm late. I guess we missed the movie" Carter tells me. "Well, we could always do something else" I tell him. "Uhm, how about we go somewhere to watch the stars?" he asks me. "Okay, where?" I ask and that's when a boy who was wearing a somewhat employer's uniform tapped Carter's shoulder and gave him a flyer.

"What's that?" I ask him. He gave me the paper and we looked at it together with him somewhat behind me and his chin resting on my shoulders to take a pick. I like this position.

I had a feeling Carter only gave me the flyer so he could rest his chin on my shoulder. I gave him a peck quickly and pushed him playfully away. "What?" he asks. "You gave me the flyer just to rest your chin on my shoulder" I say sticking out my tongue and he was somewhat surprised but was red.

"Er, right, you caught me" he says looking at the side.

The Flyer was for a carnival of some sort.

"Want to go there instead?" I ask him

"Sure" he says smiling.

Leo's POV

The Circus

PresentDay

The trips had been fun and tiring meaning it was PERFECT FOR AN ADHD KID LIKE ME. We've been all over the place. We just visited Manhattan and now we're in Brooklyn. Unfortunately this is the last stop before I go back to Jason and Piper.

I was near my stage corner and I was about to pull a prank when someone suddenly hugged me and pecked me in the cheeks.

WHATTHEASDFGHJKL?!

"Carter!" the hugger said cheerfully but when I turned around her eyes widened.

"Oh my gods!"

And I just saw that the hugger was Nefertiti's reincarnation. I bet a lot of potatos are jealous of my redness right now . . . wait potatos? I meant tomatos. Gods

"I AM SO SORRY, I thought you were my boyfriend!" she says.

Ouch. She's taken. I just smiled "I'm sorry you mistook me, hi I'm Leo" I told her. what I wanted to say but did not say was I'm sorry you had to kiss a stranger on the cheek. She kind of understood

"Really, this is uhm, embarrassing. I'm Zia" beautiful person, beautiful name. gives.

"Zia? Where are you?" I hear a voice says.

I saw were it came from. He had curly brown hair and eyes and we had the same height. The only difference was the form of his face and mine were a bit off and I was the lankier one.

"You look like me" we said at the same time. We paused at the same time. Raised an eyebrow at the same time, and Zia started laughing and we followed suit.

"Leo, this is Carter, the boyfriend I mistook you for" she says and I told Carter my name and we shook hands.

"I could totally understand that" Carter says and we were wearing the same shirt too. Carter seemed to have bought one of the Circus Shirts from a gift shop since that's what I'm wearing.

"Hahaha, well it's not every day a girl suddenly hugs you out of no where" I say. Oops. STUPID ADHD.

"You what?!" Carter says.

"I'm sorry, I thought he was you so I kind of hugged him and kissed him on the cheek" she was a little red

I mentally palm faced. Did she really have to say that? I don't want to get punched by her boyfriend!

Carter's eyes widened more.

"Oh my gods!" And then he's gonna punch me. "I'M SO SORRY! DID SHE PUNCH YOU?!" he said

What?!

Zia laughed.

"What? No, why would she?" I ask him. He looked at me surprised. "Wow, I would've thought she'd knock your lights off" Carter says. "Congratulations, you survided!" he clapped me on the back. I laughed. He's weird.

"Well, I guess you have things to do" Zia says and Carter puts an arm around her.

"Actually I had, before you interrupted, watch this" I say grinning. I waited for a teenager to walk exactly where I wanted her to walk and pressed a button.

Immediately, a lever clicked and the square she was walking on sank as some fake spiders and cockroaches shot out from the stage through some machines and he kind of freaked out, when the spiders and cockroaches were finished a bunch of confetti shot out to the kid and a deep robotical voice that said "you got pranked you got pranked"

Zia and Carter laughed their butts off. Good! I spent days during the circus tour trying to set that stage up.

"That was awesome, Leo!" Carter says and I laughed. "Thanks, and yeah, sorry about getting mistaken for you huh, here take this" I say, giving them tickets to my show. "It's in an hour so no rush, enjoy your date" I tell them

They tried to refuse but hey, it's all good and they took it and went along the way. I, on the other hand, need to be ready for a show.

Zia

I laughed as we walked around the carnival. Carter still has his arms around me. "Is me hugging Leo and you wrapping your arms around me somehow related?" I ask grinning. "Hey! You kissed him, and well, you are beautiful, so if I don't do something he might try to make a move, or er," he mumbled some things that I didn't catch. He was blushing.

I laughed. "You're jealous" I told him. "No I'm not!" And I faked pout. "Really? Well, I guess we could hang out with Leo some more" I say turning back.

And then just as quickly he hugged me from behind. He buried his face in my neck. "No, this is I'm with Zia alone time" he says and I laugh.

And we continue walking. "But seriously, he did a hell of a prank" Carter says grinning. "I bet Sadie would love to meet him" I say smirking at the thought.

"OH NO. OH NO. The last thing Sadie needs is another hot guy to fall to have a crush on and the last thing I need is for Sadie to make MORE PRANKS with" he says alarmed and I laugh.

"You think Leo's hot? Should I be worried?" I ask feigning.

"What? No! I'm straight! Jeez, Zia. Of course he's hot, didn't I tell you? He looks like me!" He says but I was sure that he didn't really intend to say that and was surprise that he did. I laughed.

"Whatever, Carter" and I laced my arm around his. "Should we see the show?" I ask getting the tickets Leo gave us. "Sure" Carter said smiling.

We sat by one of the benches and waited till the show began.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, behold! The hottest man on Earth!" and the show began. It was mostly some fire tricks. A few of them were exhilarating especially thinking that the performer wasn't a magician of the House of life.

We were wide eyed at some of the tricks. He was wearing a mask and his mask caught on fire but he just said "BOY, I'M HOT!" and a lot of people laugh.

"Meh, I bet you can do all of it" Carter says smiling at me, and smiling back.

And then, there was a sudden fireball shot through the pathway between the benches. I being nearest to the path way looked to see the performer beside me.

"Are you sure, m'lady, that you can do all of that?" he asks, but not insulted, with amusement. He was smiling. He was . . . familiar.

And then I realised what was happening. "Thanks Carter" I muttered at him giving him a glare.

"If the beautiful Lady might be so kind as to join me in the stage" He says holding out a hand.

"C'mon Zia" the performer whispered and Carter and I were shocked. The performer tilted his mask a bit and saw that he was . . .

He was Leo!

Carter laugh. "Go, Zia, they'd just think it's a magic trick anyway" I say and Leo seemed to here and snorted and grabbed my hand and placed me on the stage. I was hating it of course.

Leo whispered to my ear. He told me to be still and then he started letting fire dance around me carefull not to touch fire around me. I smirk a bit and joined the fire dance creating my own fire mumbling some words.

Leo was shocked but quickly recovered and we ended the show.

I was a little bit tipsy from the magic but Carter managed to steady me.

Leo's POV

After the Show, 7pm

"ZIA! YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU HAD SOME TRICKS LIKE THAT TOO!" I told her. I have to be careful now, jeez. What if she asks a question about my technique, I mean if she can do it, so she must know a trick behind it, and if I don't know the trick behind it, then she'd ask, how were you doing all of that then?

I can't really tell her that I have mystical powers, now can I?

"Haha, well, you didn't tell us you were part of the circus," Carter says.

Someone calls for me. "I'll be right there!" I yell back and turn back to the couple

"I guess I'll be going then" I tell them

"We'll see you around?" Carter asks and I'm glad I made a friend in this tour. "Uh, no. It's a circus tour, I'm going back to school after this night. I'm not from Brooklyn"

"Aw, that's too bad. Nice meeting you, Leo" Zia says.

"Oh, and Zia?" I ask "I want to show you one last bit of magic" I smile they say sure.

"But you have to show me your magic too, and I want you to hit me with the biggest fire you can get!" I tell her, and she was shock and she hesitates . . . they're hiding something.

"Uhm, I'm not sure Leo. The fire I was using was real"

"Please, I don't mind. I just want to show you this, something to remember me by. We're both magicians right" I say grinning. Zia kind of paled Carter whispered something to Zia and Zia nodded.

And I took off my jacket "There, there is no way I can hide any sort of trick in me without my jacket while wearing shorts and a sleeveless shirt" I tell them

"Hit me, Zia" I say winking and Zia kind of threw me a fire ball the size of a gigantic bowl of punch for homecoming.

And I let it hit me and made a circular motion with my hand so that the moment it hit me, a fire of circular rings surrounded it making it look like an archery target board.

Their eyes widened.

"Well, have fun for the rest of the night guys. Oh, and by the way, maybe I wasn't doing a magic trick. Maybe everything was just magic after all" I winked at them and ran off.

Yeah, right. Magic. More like a curse. And then I realised something. Zia was wearing a simple shirt, and pants with no pockets. She couldn't have hid anything to use to create a fire ball. I paused. Maybe I should ask her. Maybe she was like me?

. . . .

Nah. No way.

But if one day, I find out why the hell am I cursed with this stupid fire, I'll go back here in Brooklyn, I'll find Zia and ask her about it.

What I didn't know then was how soon I'd find out why I had powers. But just as fast as I had found out, I had forgotten about her . . . well, at least for a while

Zia's POV

"He couldn't have been a . . ." I asked Carter still shell shocked at what Leo did

"Could he have some blood of the Pharaohs? " Carter asks. But even just the blood isn't enough, it would take years of practice to that kind of magic! And I don't even know him! I know every fire elementalist in the house of life!

"Maybe he was just messing with us with that archery bored. Maybe it really just was a trick"

"Maybe. . ."

And we left it like that.

What I didn't know that we had just stumbled to a boy who belonged to a whole different dimension of gods. We had forgotten about him . . . well, at least for a while

A/N: Okay, so it came out as extremely long. gods, trust me to make it boring ugh. Well whatever. Thanks for the first reviewer btw. I appreciate ^_^

Next up, Jason meets Sadie
