The Hundred Word Horror Show

Reality

Let me explain. Come closer. Look into my eyes and tell me what you see.

Ah yes...the circus. I see it too.

Come closer. What do you see now?

A dead man lowering into his grave? I see it too. 

You've seen the same man in different reincarnations haven't you? Don't worry you're not crazy.

You see young lad, where you've seen bloody alcohol in the first life, I see the red wine curse I used to trap him in that dystopian reality.

Where you see turquoise flashes around his body, I see the hundred word curse I cast to shorten his many lives.

Where you see electric blue fins at sea, I see a mind control curse I used to make him forget that this is all an illusion. The same curse I used on the audience to drain their souls.

Where you see black and white, I see spells that conjure chaos and unruly magic. Not my magic.

This place is not what it seems. 

There's a monster that lurks around these parts. A creature from another world.

Hibernating. Waiting for the right moment, the right amount of sacrifices to return.

By selling everyone's soul like I did circus tickets I've emptied the crowd.

You're the last one left young one. You have been called up for a greater purpose.

Go now, into the pit of the beast.

Only this poor dancing puppet will be what's left of the circus.

When his 100th life is up, I'll sacrifice him too.

 That's when he'll rise again. And I'll inherit the Earth, while he conquers our universe.
