Canadian Freakshow

Encore (plus pets)

The three of them kept watching the water, soon the thrashing of the hungry sharks had died down, and their brother was nowhere to be seen. "Jesus...what would mom think?" Asked America. "Honestly...I think she'd be proud after what he did to her" Said Australia. "Yeah probably, mum always liked karma" Said Kiwi. They all began to climb down from the ledge, being up that high after watching gore wasn't too friendly on the nerves. "You think it may have been a bit harsh?" Said America. The three paused for a second, all looking at each other before bursting out into laughter. After all the shit Canada had done, that would have been considered merciful. They soon got back on the ground, only now realising that the entirety of the crowd was silently staring at them. "...I can't tell if their amazed or in shock" Said America.

After a second, part of the crowd started shifting and soon, a child came out onto the stage. New Zealand recognised them as the kid who kept asking if they could talk. The kid came right up to them, showing no fear of them whatsoever 'Uh..my mom says you're just actors but I don't think you are. Are you actors?' The kid asked. The brothers looked at each other, thinking whether or not they should tell the kid that they were forced into this. After a second, America soon came forward, kneeling down to the kids level. "Well if we told you then that would break the magic wouldn't it?" Said America. The kid giggled 'Your costumes look awesome!' Said the child. If this 9-10 year old could walk up to them and ask if they were real, then what was Canada talking about when he said they'd be seen as freaks by everyone else? America ushered the kid to go back to his mother as Australia was poking his head over the edge of the shark tank, watching the baby bull sharks swim around happily fed. "Wanna see if he tasted like pancakes?" Zealand said, coming up next to him "Shut up kiwi" said Australia. They ended up taking a workers phone and calling animal control to take care of the sharks, along with other show animals that were kept in conditions similar to them.

Soon after seeing the whole condition of the place, the police were called and all of the brothers, along with Russia and Papua New Guinea had been wrapped up in blankets and questioned. Seeing as it was an act of self defence, they were only let off with a few weeks of community service. Probably wasn't the worst punishment they'd had. Guests were being ushered out through the gates, all with free gift bags as an apology of watching someone be torn to shreds by illegally obtained bull shark pups. The three of them were still wrapped up in blankets and had been given tea to help stop them from breaking out into panic from what had just happened. Watching the cages be dismantled was a strange thing for them. If only kiwi knew that he had to unscrew the poles they probably would've been out a while ago. The three of them had been given back their things, phones, wallets, bits of jewellery they may have had. "Hm...you know what we haven't had in a while?" Said Zealand. "A normal family?" Said America. "Shut up America. No. McDonald's, we haven't had McDonald's in about a year" Said Zealand. "Oh yeah, let's go get some I think there's one down the road" Said Australia. "Okay but you guys are paying" Said Papua. "Oh right as sOON AS We get our wallets back" Said Zealand. "You know how much it costs to get into those shows every night!?" Said Russia. "Yeesh neither of you Have changed have you?" Said Australia. "Nope" the two said, collectively.

Once their phones had charged, they called an Uber to take them to the nearest McDonald's. Sure they may have gotten a few weird looks from people, but they didn't clear out and shut the whole place down like America was lead to believe. And after a year of being trapped and barely fed anything, they finally got to eat a substantial meal, and go the fuck home. Of course not before kicking britain out and making him sleep in the shed. France had been taking care of all of their pets, NZ's kiwi birds were running around him and squealing at the sight of him finally coming home while America was toppled over by his dog. It was a big dog, a St Bernard, a very friendly and old one. Within one minute of being home, Australia had already gotten his pet snake out of its tank and was being strangled by it. It was a hug :). And of course, Canada's dog was happy to see that they were okay, not caring about the fact Canada was gone, he'd never really treated the dog very well anyway.
