The Descendant in the Greatest Show♣ ∂εscεη∂αηтs and the greatest showman

the greatest show

FOUR AND A HALF MONTHS LATER...

"Check this out, Mal." Jay called. He and Carlos walked into the room and showed the flyer.

BARNUM'S CIRCUS SHOW

Come one, come all and feast your eyes on the magnificent talents that Barnum's circus have to offer. From singing to trapeze act to our little General. You will truly believe that this is the Greatest Show.

"Okay, it's a circus. What's so important?" Mal asked.

"Check the back." Carlos said. Mal turned the paper to see a photo of the circus act.

"Doesn't this one look just like the one in your drawing." Jay pointed at the photo of a girl with short lavender hair. The girl did have the similarities as the one is Mal drawing.

"We think this could be Marina." Carlos added. "I say that we should go to the show and see for ourselves."

Mal didn't speak, she was in shock. Could this girl really be her sister? This could explain why Fairy Godmother couldn't find her.

"When is the show?" Mal asked. Jay pulled out five tickets.

"Tomorrow night. We've got a tickets for us, you, Evie, and Ben. We thought maybe Ben could use his king status to get backstage." Jay added. Mal took a ticket and sat down. Tommorow night could be the night her life will change forever.

THE NEXT NIGHT

The Core Four and Ben walked towards the large red and white tent. People outside crowd the entryway, trying to get in. Everyone around them we're excited. Mal was nervous, Evie was enthusiastic, Ben was curious, Jay was excited, and Carlos hoped there would be chocolate. Once they found their seats, they waited. Other were still finding a seat.

"Isn't this funny?" Evie said with excitement. Finally the lights around dimmed down. A single spotlight shines of a man wearing a red ringmaster costume.

You stumble through your days
Got your head hung low
Your skies' a shade of grey
Like a zombie in a maze
You're asleep inside
But you can shake away

'Cause you're just a dead man walking

Thinking that's your only option
But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day
Sun is up and the color's blinding
Take the world and redefine it
Leave behind your narrow mind
You'll never be the same

Come alive, come alive
Go and ride your light
Let it burn so bright
Reaching up
To the sky
And it's open wide
You're electrified

At the same time, Marina flipped through the air and was caught be W.D. The Core Four watched in aww.

When the world becomes a fantasy
And you're more than you could ever be
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
And you know you can't go back again
To the world that you were living in
'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open
So, come alive!

I see it in your eyes
You believe that lie
That you need to hide your face
Afraid to step outside
So you lock the door
But don't you stay that way
