Jude sprinted through the overgrown town. His ribs ached, and his stomach growled as the tune played. Pigs were in town, and they were coming to his home. He would finally silence his starving gut. All he had to do was lure them in and he would be able to eat. Oh the sweet pork. The stew that White Fang made, the salad that Merl the bearded lady made with her special red sauce. Drool ran from his lips and down his chin.

 He continued to sprint until he got through the back entrance of his red and white striped show tent. He peaked through the curtains that would open and reveal him. 

They were everywhere! Hundreds of pigs coming to see his wonderful act. They sat in the stands, small ones licking the swirled lollipops that Poinsetta sold, others sitting straight and slowly taking in the cotton candy, even some nice plump ones shoveling their face with popcorn.

Jude smiled and called for Kassy the five armed girl.

"It's show time."
