Finally got it down right.. I think.. This chapter was utterly impossible to correctly write down, but i finally got it..
Sorry if this one might be a little confusing, but it is the nearest i could come on readable.. Anyway, thanks for reading!

ToLazyToLogIn: I guess that's okay, as long as you remember the credit, and tell whoever reads to look at the original too..
If you promise me that, then i give you my permission to do so... ;)

I do not own x-men


I was holding the briefcase in my hands, and thought about the positive an negative effect in opening it.
what if it was something personal, as in really, really personal.
I was very unsure whether I should pull myself together and open it here and now, or let it go and move on.
But no, the need to know what might be inside was to great, and i just had to take a little peek..
I sat in the bed, and finally opened it, and found some truly serous stuff inside.
something about debts, and other money problems.. But what really hit me, was the contract with mom's name on..

in order to remain being a part of the circus after dad's disappearance, she had promised to marry her soon-coming child away,
in the age of ten, And if she didn't, she would be left behind, alone.

As i went through the rest of the papers, I found Jamie's phone number. That might be very handy to keep, in case i need to talk to him..
The last interesting thing i found, was the letter from Germany. It was unreadable, as it stood in German, but it pretty much looked like a contract too.
I knew i needed someone to read it up for me, but i had no idea who i could get to do that.
No one wanted to answer me, when i asked them about the circus, so who would go and help me now..
But then I remembered the phone number. Jamie was possibly my last hope, as he didn't seemed particularly fond of his stepfather at the moment.

I took my phone and called him, without any idea what to say to him. But before i got the chance of regretting, a young man suddenly took the phone..

Jamie: "Hello, Jamie speaking."

Kitty: "H-hey, it's Katherine."

Jamie: "Katherine? But, how! Who gave you my number?"

Kitty: "I found it.. Now listen, i haven't got much time.. I don't really know you or anything, but i know i was suppose to get married with you, and you said no,
and i can't tell you how happy i am about that.. But now you're dad is planing to marry me instead, and i might need you're help!"

Jamie: "Wait a minute. Him, marrying you? That can't be true, he's already got a wife.. And besides, he isn't my real father, only stepfather.."

Kitty: "What? I'm sorry, i think i heard wrong.."

Jamie: "No you didn't hear wrong, he is already married to a woman named Zarah.. My mom.. "

Kitty: "No way, this is getting way to weird.. Is she living with you?"

Jamie: "Yes. We are living in a house some street's away from the tent were he work.. And now, what did you need my help to?"

Kitty: "I.. I had to ask you, can you read German?"

Jamie: "Yes, pretty well actually.. Why?"

Kitty: "Because i need you to translate a letter for me, as fast as possible."

Jamie: "Sure, send it to me by mail, and i'll see what i can do.."

Kitty: "Um actually, it's pretty important, and i need to know it today.."

Jamie: "Oh, I see.. Then meed me tonight at 10 pm at the entrance of the circus, and i'll read it up for you."

Kitty: "Okay then, see you.. And thanks!"

Jamie: "Your welcome.."

Kitty: "Oh, by the way, you say you a living not far from here, in a house? aren't you and you're mom a part of the traveling circus?"

Jamie: Well yes, my mom and i was a part of it some years ago, but that's before you're birth. Now we rent a house close to the tent.
So when the tent move, we move to.."

Kitty: "So you get a new house every time? I don't no much about outside the tent, but that sounds expensive.."

Jamie: "Well, it would be, but dad makes a lot of money.."

Kitty: "A lot of money? But then why all the debts?"

Jamie: "Debts?"

Kitty: "Never mind, see you tonight.."

the day went by slowly, but then it finally got dark. I sneaked myself past the guards with ease, and now i stood, ready at the entrance, as promised.
When he finally came, my hart stopped for a second. This was the boy i thought i would never meet, but here he was, ready to help me..

Kitty: "Thanks for coming.. well, here.."

I gave him the letter, and he started to read it up aloud, but still, in a quite manner, so only I could hear it..

Jamie: "um, It's something about a boy from Germany being sent here to Italy, due to some kinda work.. Do you know a boy named Kurt?"

I told him that the only kid here was me, and he looked at me in disbelieve. Then i told him how strange people had been acting lately,
The weird papers i found, and about the area i didn't know anything about.. We talked pretty long,
before i promised him to go and find out what the place was about, and then call him again.. And he promised to help me, if i needed his help again..
He then leaved, and i promised myself to go and see what the heck was going on at the other side.. Tonight.

I hid in the shadows and sneak past the guards once again, but instead of going to the left against my trailer, I went to the right.
This time, nothing could stop me! And as i passed the fire-eaters trailer, I felt the time stop for a second. So far had i never come before.
I saw trailers everywhere, some stalls, and a little carousel in the middle.. I moved a little closer, but when a door suddenly swung open,
i hurried to hide behind some old wood boxes. I couldn't believe my own eyes, as a big woman with two heads stepped out of the door,
but as i looked to the other side, i saw the tallest man i had ever seen! I thought about it all, and then realized, that it must be some kind of freak show.
I had heard people talk about things like that, but i never believed it was true.. Sure, i was possible a freak too, but it still seemed unrealistic.

I was ready to turn away in fear of getting spotted, but then something grab my ankle..
I looked down, and saw a little four legged girl smiling at me..
She asked me about who i was, and i told her my name was Kitty.. I then asked her about a boy from Germany named Kurt.
She did know a boy from Germany, but the boy she knew wasn't named Kurt, but Diablo. "Diablo means demon" She told me.

She promised me to lead the way, but i had to carry her with me, as she couldn't walk by herself..
"You do know that he only speak German, right?" The little girl asked, as i picked her up.
"No, but i surely do now. Can you maybe tell me a little more about him on the way?"
We walked past some campers as She told me about his demonic look, and about him being trapped in a cage..
I was just about to ask her why he was caged, but before i got the chance, i stood just a few meters from the prison of his..

Kitty/me: "So this is it huh, this is the place?"
Girl: "Yes.. may you have luck in finding the answers you are looking for.."
Kitty: "All right.. And thanks for helping me.."
Girl: "You are all welcome to come and say hi whenever you want to, as long as no one sees you.."
Kitty: "Thanks for the invite, but i have to ask you.. What's you're name?"
Girl: "Well, most people just call me four legged, but my real name is Matilda.."
Kitty: "Then Matilda, it was nice to meet you. Can you make it yourself from here on?"
Girl: "Sure, i'm used to crawl just fine.."

She then crawled away the best she could, and leaved me in a place i knew absolutely nothing about.
I leaned my back against a tree and looked in the girl's direction for a moment, before I pulled myself together and went to the cage.
I looked trough the bars, and got my eyes on a blue, fuzzy boy laying on the side, with his back against me.
I was sure he was sleep, and as i didn't wanna wake him, i just stood there, and looked at him..
I saw a tail sticking out of his black, ruined shorts, and red streaks of blood on his shirtless back, which made it look as if he had he been scourged or something.
As i kept on studying him from the back side of him, he suddenly turned around, now having his face inches from my own.
I looked at his long pointy ears, and his weirdly white and fanged teeth's, which didn't have the slightest hint of yellow at all.
I found him close enough for me to touch, and without realizing, I let one of my hands run through the fur on his cheek..
He had obviously could feel it as his gleaming yellow eyes opened and looked directly into mine.
I got a big shock, but didn't as much as move. I was just standing there, keeping my hand on his cheek,
as he too just laid still, looking at me. He then took his tree fingered hand, and laid it on mine..
I then tried to look as calm as i could, even though I was full of panic inside, and tried to communicate with him as good as i could..
I asked him if his name was Kurt by making hand signs, then saying his name.
He seemed to light up when I said his name, not sure why, he just did..
He then tried to talk to me, but i had no clue in what he said..

Kurt: "Ja, aber wie wissen sie mein richtiger Name? Ich habe Ihnen vorher getroffen?
Kitty: "I'm so sorry Kurt, but i don't know what you are saying.."
