Tord's POV

Me and Tom have barley separated since that night, that perfect night.

We are currently in Russia and on the hunt for the 7th herb. Tom sticks close to me when he isn't in the jet. The second stage is getting worse.

In the market place I fownd a poster. It read:

Come one, come all
To the

Circus supremo

We have games, shows, and rides
It's a great place for a date!


I had an great idea, "Hey Tom, look at this!"

Tom had gotten the herb and walked over. He handed me the herbs and I put them in my pocket. I showed him the poster.

"Since you haven't been feeling too well, maybe we can go to a circus?" I asked.

"I've never been to a circus before. It sounds like fun!" He said excitedly. He had a smile on his face and it looked genuine.

He's been putting on a fake smile to try to keep me happy. The fake one isn't as beautiful as the real one. 'I haven't seen him like this for awhile' I thought to myself.

"Then let's go tomorrow!" We walked back to the jet.

*Time skip*

The fair was packed and I could tell Tom was nervous. Being in our cloaks, we kind of attracted attention. Tom stayed close. I tried divert Tom's attention to the rides.

First we went on a roller coaster that went upside down too many times to count. Tom and I screamed in delight. Next we went on a G force spinner. We held hands tightly. Tom's smile spread across his face. I'd never seen Tom so happy. The ride ended but there was so meny.

"Tord! Lets do that one," Tom squealed, bouncing up and down. He pointed at the 'Infinity Rider'. It was huge. I read the sign.

The Infinity Rider

Warning: sudden stops, high speeds, gos upside down and do not ride if you have motion sickness.

"Seems like a good time."

"Okay lets do it!" I said. We got in line.

I made sure to stay with Tom since it was a two person at a time ride. The person who buckled us in was a eadgy teenager. He put my restraints down.

*click*

He put Tom's restraints down.

"Uh kid-" Tom was cut off.

"K, here we go," the kid said uninthusiacticly. He pulled the lever,  we speed off.

'Boy they weren't kidding when they said it was fast.' I thought. I looked over to Tom. He was freaking out.

"Tom, what's wrong?" I yelled.

"I herd nothing, I didn't here the restraints click!" He screamed.

"WHAT!"

We were coming up on a loop and then a jump. My restraints kept me from moving so I couldn't do much except reach for Tom's hand. He held on tight. I saw the restraints fling up and Tom was sent flying. I didn't let go. I heard the screams of the people around us. We were currently upside down and Tom was hanging there. We left the loop and Tom fell back into his seat.

The jump was coming fast. 'That's it' I thought to myself. I burned the clamp that held my restraints down with my robot arm. I lifted them up and picked Tom up bridal stile and jumped off the roller coaster. We were varry high off the ground, so I jumped to another  part of the roller coaster. Tom was scared for dear life, he clung to me and shivered.

"H-huh, first the elevator now this. Boy does the world want me dead," Tom said shakingly getting down.

We climbed down a lader. People that operated the ride swarmed us and apologized. I kept my arm firmly around Tom. I saw the teen behind this mess. I walked up to him. Tom hid behind me, he knew what I was going to do.

"Uh sorry man, I should of-" The teen started to say.

I socked him in the nose. I easily broke it and sent him flying to the ground. People ran to his assistance. I put my arm around Tom and walked away.

"You didn't have to break his nose Tord, if you were going to hit him that hard you could have just used the arm that wasn't metal," Tom said, still with a shaky voice.

"Well you could get angry more," I mumbled.

He stoped. He cupped his hands over his mouth.

"Tom?" I asked worriedly.

"Be right back, stay here," He said through his hands, running towards the bathrooms.

"Uh.. Okay?"

I sat down on a nearby bench, and waited.

"Welp I'm bored" I said not even 2 minutes later. 'I am gonna go play some circus games and get Matt some novelty toys for his collection.' I thought to myself. I wanderd off.

I feel like something's off, if he was just having a coughing fit he would let me go with him. What's wrong?

I tried to clear my mind. I failed.
