Chapter 2

     As morning shown through his window, Yuvraj stood up as he got up and walked out of his cabin and was greeted by Danimal pushing a wheelbarrow, "Morning mate."

     "Morning Dan, how long have you been up?"

     "All night, scouting out the feisty ones that might possibly come to the show again or have yet ta get here."

     "Well as much as I think it's weird, I actually need a favor from you."

     "Really, ya should done so sooner."

     I would've but I had to wait till after I performed, and after I couldn't find you cause you were out looking, and you left your phone again, we keep telling you that you can use the vibrate feature."

     "Right then, what ya need me to do?"

     "Did you see my volunteer last night?  The one for the vanish trick?"

    "Yeah I stuck around long enough for that?  You need me to kidnap her?"

     "NO!  Remember last time you pulled that, things were way out of hand dealing with the owners of that poodle."

     "I still thought it was funny."

     "You would, but that's not what i need you to do, just find her address, I think she's been involved in magic in her past."

     "If you say so, I'll do what I can, but first I should get this taken care of."

     Looking at the tarp over the top, he raised an eyebrow at the lumpy shape underneath it, "What is in there."

     "Oh, nothing really."

     Snapping his fingers, Yuvraj watch as the tarp flew off revealing a bare cub.  "DAN!!  You take that cub back to the zoo right now before I turn you into a salmon and leave you Vanessa to use as a pet."

     "Not the mermaid, geez, I wasn't gonna eat him, I was thinking a little petting zoo."

     "MOVE IT!!"

     Since the conversation had attracted a few of the other of the circus,  Dan shied away, heading back the way he came, a few of the others going with him to make sure he did as he was suppose to.

     Walking towards the big top, he walked in to find the ring filled with tables with many different breakfast options.  Getting a few pancakes and apples and a second plate with muffins and fish sausage, he walked over towards the water tank with a steering wheel and motorized wheels, were Venessa was waiting at the tank's window.

     "Morning Vanessa."

     "Morning Yuvraj, so which plate is for me?"

     Handing her the one with the sausages, he smiled as she grabbed a muffin with her slightly webbed hand.  As he started biting into an apple, she spoke to him with  muffin in her cheeks, "So what's up this time?  Was it Dan again, or something else?"

     "Both actually."

     "Really, not what is it that has my little brother in a twist?"

     "Well, Dan's kidnapping animals, a little bear cub this time."

     "Did you turn him into a fish?"

     "Wouldn't he be trying to swim away from you right now if he was?"

     "Just in case.  So what's the other one?"

     "Well, you saw the volunteer for the vanish act."
