The Circus

Fight

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!" Brian yelled. Rosie didn't answer him she just looked down at her feet. "ANSWER ME!" He grabbed Rosie arm and she looked at him. Brian looked into her eyes but something was different about them. Instead of them being bright and full of life they were cold and empty. This made Brian uncomfortable but he didn't let go of her arm. Instead he gripped it harder. "SILENT TREATMENT HA! WELL ILL-" "Sur, the news woman wants you." Raven said walking it to the both of them. Brian let go of Rosie's arm. "I'll deal with you later." Then he left. "He's such a jerk! You alright Rose?" She asked sitting next to Rosie. Rosie rubbed her neck and looked at Raven. "Ya..." Rosie said. "Girl don't give me that lie. I can tell when you aren't alright. Talk to me, you know I'm here to help." Rosie was picking at the strings on her ripped up pants. "I just hate it here. I hate the circus, I hate Brian. I hate almost everything about my life!" Raven opened her mouth to say something but didn't. "Rave, why are we here?" Raven looked confused. "What do you mean?" "I mean why are we here at this circus? We should be out there. We should be going to school and to the mall. All we should be worried about is dating, grades, tests, and what skirt goes with what shirt. We should be having a normal teenage life's. But instead we're in the circus and all we are worried about is being good enough for the crowd. I hate it." Raven looked at the sky. Rosie could tell that she was thinking hard about what she had just said. "You're right about everything, but we don't have a choice. We were taken and Brien owns us." Rosie looked at her. "What do you mean he owns us?" That's when Raven realized. "You do know why we have spent our whole lives here, right." That's when it hit Rosie. They weren't abandoned. They were taken. "How do you know then?" Rosie asked in disbelief. "I over heard the boss talking about it..." Rosie stood up. "Where are you going?" Raven asked her concerningly. "I'm going to kill him. I'M GONNA KILL HIM!" Raven stood up with her. "No don't." "Rave we can't just leave this be. We have to fight!" Rosie yelled. "Rosie, if we fight he could no he will kill some of us. He may even kill Ky. Do you really want that?" "NO BUT WE CANT LET HIM TREAT US LIKE THIS! LISTEN I GET IT YOUR SCARED AND DONT WANNA FIGHT BUT-" "IM NOT SCARED. DO YOU REALLY THINK I DONT WANT TO FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM? DO YOU REALLY THINK-" "Hay guys everything ok?" Ky had walked up to them. "Everything's fine babe."
