Len's POV

I opened up the letter and began to read it out loud.
-Dear Lenny, I hope you are doing okey. I love Ireland, I hope you can come visit soon.
Aaanyway, I heard there has been quite a few reports of missing children, every time in a different city. I have done some research and it turns out that the presumed kidnappings have happened when there was this traveling circus in town. I was hoping you could go check it out.
See you soon!!!
Love, Rin.-
I folded the card and left it to rest on the desk. 'Sounds interesting' I thought as I stared at the closed piece of paper.
Crumbled up in the envelop was a ticket decorated with lively colors with a circus tent in the middle, hidden deeper within the letter a train pass to Edinburgh for the 15th of June rested.

I had given it some thought. I needed to decide wether or not to take the case. I finally came to a decision.

«2 days later»

The train station was mostly empty, there only seemed to be elder men and women, and it was raining.

As the train approached the station I took a couple passes closer to the eadge. The smell of smoke invaded my lungs and made me cough.

Once it came to a full stop and opened it's doors to me I stepped in and sat to the closest seat to the door.

While the train resumed it's travels through the country I stared out the window, listening to the dabbing sounds that the rain drops produced as they crashed against the thick glass.

This was the first case I have done without Rin.
I wonder what will happen.

Ia/ Aria's POV

Once the show ended I retreated to my tent.
I entered and sat down on a wooden chair in front if a mirror. I grabbed an old rag and dipped it in a glass of water I had sitting on the counter, I pressed it on my skin and started to clean my face free of makeup.

Removing the paint off my visage the sound of people conversing invaded my room.
Finally finished cleaning myself I went back out to see what the ruckus was about.

"What's going on?" I asked one of my companions.

"Someone wants to join the circus, they say he is amazingly talented!"
I started to follow the crowd to the tent where we practice for our shows.
Once I was in I gazed up and saw a blond boy, about my age, doing all kinds of stunts and tricks a top of the tight rope. Suddenly, slow claps resounded through the closed space.

"That was amazing! Your hiered!" A familiar voice spoke behind me, it was Gumi.

The mysterious boy climbed down the ladder and made his way to Gumi.

"Thank you so much" he said shaking Gumi's hands.

"No problem, good to have 'ya. Anyway, first things first, we have to pick you an outfit and what to do on the shows, But above all we have to find you a place to sleep; Lucky for you there's a free tent, so if you could follow me"
"Uh... Okey."
After the blond stranger left, everyone went back to what they were doing. I went back to my tent.

«The next day»

"Hey!!! IAAA!!!! I need to ask you a favor!!!"
Gumi ran towards me.

"What is it?"

"I was wondering if you could help Yellow practice! Oh! And give him a tour of the place!"

"Yellow?"

"Yeah, he's the boy that I hired yesterday. Can you please help?"

"Uh, that's not going to catch on"
I whispered.
