Richard's POV: 5 Years Old

"And here we have the Flying Grayson's who perform without the safety of a net!" Announced Haley with flourishing excitement. I know why though, our parents are amazing! I love them so much, I don't know what I would do without them or my astrous geamăn (twin)! Right now we are climbing up to the trapeze to do our magic to fly and wow the crowd! I can't wait, mami (mommy) and tatic (daddy) said we couldn't perform with them yet and do the quadruple somersault, but we still get to watch them and do a couple things!

When we got up there with our robes we took them off while waving to the crowd and smiling revealing the colorful leotards mami made us, tatic said she worked really hard on them! "Noi te iubim fii!" (We love you sons!)mami and tatic said with loving smiles before tatic leapt off the platform and swung on the first bar and flipping to the second bar latching on to it with his legs. I heard a groaning sound but brushed it off. Tatic was swinging back to the first bar which mami swung on flipping to my tatic who she knew would catch her and latching onto his hands swinging back towards me and my twin, but then I heard the sound again, louder, and I looked up at the same time my părinţi (parents) and Dick looked up, the ropes came loose! I gasped with fear and met Dick's eyes which held the same fear. My părinţi eyes widened, mami called out to us "Richard, Dick!" and We screamed "Mami tati, nu! Te iubesc, te iubesc!..." (Mommy daddy, no! I love you, I love you!...). We kept screaming as they continued falling trying to reach out to them as my mami tries to reach out as well.

I look on with horror, I can only hear my own screaming and rapid heartbeat drumming in my ears, deafening me as I watch with wide eyes! I see acceptance in their eyes, surprising me, they convey a message, mouthing "We love you sons.". Then all the sound comes back to me, and as they fell to the ground with the gruesome sound of bones cracking and their once lively and strong bodies lying there, on the ground, in an unnatural way of twisted limbs and blood beginning to pool around them. I hear the audience screaming and rushing to leave not caring about us as we climbed back down to the ground as fast as I can Dick following suit and dropping to our knees by their dead and gruesome bodies in the pool of their own blood. My body is racked with sobs that I can't, nor want to stop as I hugged my geamăn tight. The only familie (family) I have left now.

I can now only hear the memories of me and my familie... "Hold up sons, wait for us!" mami yells after us as me and Dick run and flip off things to the where we're setting up for a picnic, my tatic laughs along with mami in amusement and happiness... My părinţi tuck us in, mami kissing our foreheads along with tatic, giving us our stuffed elephant peanut. I snuggle in to bed with Dick and peanut in between us as they say "Te iubesc fii, noapte bună." (Love you sons, good night.) tatic said before mami said "Eu te iubesc micul meu robins, vise dulci." (I love you my little robins, sweet dreams.) and they shut the door quietly as I began drifting off to sleep with my geamăn...

I was broken out of my memories when a soft and comforting voice in my head said "Calm down little ones" I listened to the soft voice and calmed down. "Now little ones be careful, I'm sorry I can not be there for you right now, but someday you will see me little ones." I whipped my face of tears sniffling, turning my face to look in Dick's eyes. I saw the same emotions I was feeling, sorrow, guilt, sadness, grief, love, with tears coming down from his wet green eyes. I hug him tighter. I looked around and everyone, the police and the people who didn't leave yet, were staring at us.

Haley was trying to comfort us along with some stranger, he looks familiar. I think it's the billionaire, Bruce Wayne, he's the one that gave a lot of money to the circus. Haley and that Mr. Wayne looked at us with concern. I turned away from the stars of everyone and buried my head in Dick's shoulder as he buried his in my shoulder. Hiding ourselves from the world.

I felt and heard someone else crouch down next to us and looked up to find it was Mr. Wayne. I met Dick's eyes again and we had the same idea because we both jumped into his body, hugging his neck and put our foreheads into the crook of his shoulders. He hesitated slightly before wrapping his arms around us and hugging us to him. I felt comfortable in their warm and secure embrace. I soon feel asleep from exhaustion in their comforting warmth.

Unknown's POV:

I watched the whole thing. I am so sad to see her go, we were so close. I want to take care of my little ones, but I cannot interfere yet, sadly. Tears freely fall down my tired eyes. "I will watch over them" I said, "I will watch over them for as long as I can." I say out loud, my voice cracking slightly from grief.

I have to wait till I can reveal myself to them because of the stupid new rules that some someones made and put in. "The witches, I would love to feed them to Jörmungandr." I muttered in disdain with a scowl. But my anger for him soon went to the back of my mind and I became saddened again "My poor boys." I mumbled while tears cascade down from my eyes once more, and I know they won't stop soon.
