I sighed again, finally finished with wiping the mirror.
"I have to make a plan on how to escape. It has to be tonight." - I muttered to myself, putting the small peice of cloth away and sitting down, looking at myself in the mirror.
Taking the white face paint packing, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, covering my face with the paint.
I looked at my reflection, turning my head from side to side to fix some unpainted parts of my face.
I took a paint brush and dipped it in blue paint. Looking up at the mirror again, I started painting a triangle under my right eye.
Afterwards I did the same thing under my left eye, exept the fact I used pink paint.
I painted my nose and lips red and ruffled my hair a bit, making it look messy.
"Tonight... It has to be tonight..." - I thought, looking outside the backroom.
"I know! I'll just burn down the circus!
I already burned down a tent. How much worse can it get???" - I giggled, getting up and walking out of the backroom.
"Katie, dear! You look beautiful!" - my mom said, walking up to me and putting her hands on my shoulders.
She smiled at me, her smile getting more evil, making me more uncomfortable by every second.
"Well then! Let's get to practice, shall we?"
...
"S h a l l w e ?"
"Yes, mother."
She let go of my shoulders, her sweet smile back on her face as she looked around the tent, which was now filled with some other acrobats.
"Yes, exactly. I'll burn down the circus tonight.
I'LL FUCKING BURN IT AND MAKE EVERYONE SUFFER JUST LIKE I DID. I'LL-"
"Katie, are you coming?"
I looked up at my mother, not even realizing I zoned out for a few.
"Y-Yes mother. I-I am coming..."
I quickly walked to her, taking my position and doing certain tricks she told me to do, trying not to break my bones while she forced me to bend my limbs and back more than I could physically do.
"I'll show them... I will make them pay... I will not suffer anymore...
Tonight is going to be the biggest show we've ever had..."
