Flaming circus

                 We all have hearts, and feelings, we are human, we are not just toys you can use than toss out. Each and every one of our family either died or rejected us, after that we constantly got used and thrown away. I'm not complaining and I'm surely not upset because I ended up with the best family ever. The ones surrounding me now are the ones that went through the same thing I have. now we keep each other safe and warm. We never got names so we just named each other. I'm Aimi, then there's Aiko, Maria, Kota, and Hoka. Kota is the oldest out of all of us. Maria and Hoka are the youngest, they are both the same age. Aiko is one year younger than Kota, and me well I'm the middle child.
We are considered thieves amongst many people however we are not, we go around selling objects we make. We make things like dolls and toys, it's fun to do. I have always wanted to run a shop with toys for little kids, watching their cute little faces as they walk by, that had always been one of my dreams. Another one is with all of us together we all want to be in a circus with wonderful nicknames, that will be a dream we will make true.
"Aimi what's you writing."
Gasping she hides her stuff and turns "oh it's just you Kota, you startled me, and if you must know I'm not writing anything, I don't even know how to write."
"Mhm Kota mumbled hiding a smile from her, ok well Aiko and I are heading out. We just finished a batch of dolls and we want to get something for Maria and Hoka, since today is their birthday. Do you want to come?"
"Yeah sure, just give me a second, I have to put something away, Aimi answers happily. Wow I really am bad at writing, She says hiding the paper under a news paper, ok I'm coming.

"Alright you guys let's split up here and meet up in the middle of town after we're done, and stay safe Kota said walking the opposite direction of them.
"Excuse me mam, would you like a doll for your lovely little child there, we made ''em by hand, only 100 yen for one.
"We'll it depends to what are your raising money for."
"Oh nothing much just trying to save up for medicine and food."
"Ok I'll take one, and may I ask what your name is young one."
"Me, oh um, I-I'm Aiko."
"We'll nice to meet you I'm Madeline, oh yes here you go, the lady said handing her the money."
"Thanks, Aiko said giving her the doll, have a good day miss."
"Oh, excuse me sir would you like to..."
"Get out of my way, I have things to do and places to go. I don't need a rascal like you gettin in my way."
"As the man shoves Aiko out of the way, she trips over the edge of the brick built bridge. She clutched the front of the bridge tightly as she hung above the water in fear, dropping the bag of dolls. Calling out for help Aiko hears a man's voice.
"Hurry grab on you will fall if you don't." She grabs his hand hesitantly while he helps her up. Catching her breath Aiko looks up only to see a tall young man standing before her, wearing a black suit with a red bow tie.
"You alright the man asked in a weary voice."
"Y-yeah it just startled me, thanks for the lift."
"Aiko, a familiar voice yelled from behind." She looked over her shoulder an saw Aimi running toward her. "Aimi."
"And who might you be, a boy asked putting his hand on Aiko's shoulder."
"Kota, Aiko said looking up, it's Alright you can trust him, or at least I think you can, but that's not the point, he saved my clumsy self from falling."
"Oh now now young lady I wouldn't call you the clumsy one, it was that godforsaken man. And please do call me professor flint, but just between me and you call me professor it sounds a lot better, and makes me sound smart. Now who might you young ones be."
"We'll I'm Aiko, and..."
"Aiko are you ok? What happened?"
"Yeah I'm good. This is Aimi, and the person behind is Kota. We're orphans, well I'm mean something like that, we don't really have a home though.
"Thank you for helping our sister but we have to go now, plus we still got to find that gift for bro and sis. Kota said walking away."
"Yes thanks a lot, Aimi said, grabbing Aiko's hand calmly."
"Aiko, what we're you thinking? You could have gotten yourself hurt or kidnapped, Kota protested in a perturbed tone."
"Kota calm down a little, it's not like she meant to do anything."
"I-I'm sorry for worrying you guys."
"Kota leaned down and put his hands on Aiko's shoulders. "No Aiko you did nothing wrong, I didn't mean to put it that way, I'm just a little worried."
"Hey lighten your moods a little people we still have some shopping to do, can't go back to Maria and Hoka empty handed now can we. Aimi said, skipping along the side of the road as her long black silky hair shines underneath the golden sun." Walking from shop to shop not finding anything, they run into the most beautiful stand full of shiny glass animals.
