I must have fallen asleep in the car without even realizing it because as soon as I opened my eyes we were just pulling into the Freak show. Jimmy got out of the car and headed for the main tent.

"Stay here darling, I'm gonna tell the others about what happened ok?"

I drowsily nodded back in response waiting for him to come back once again.

Minutes later he came back and jumped into the car again. He started the car and explained while we drove to the spot that we broke down in.

"We got 20 mins to go and get this sicko and save that girl, like I said we are gonna try darling." He said as we came to a stop in the same place.

"Ok let's do this." I said walking to the opposite side of the road where we thought the clown came from.

Jimmy followed while I pushed various branches and leaves out of the way as we clawed through the foliage. This was like something out of a movie, like a spy or mission impossible film. I could see in the distance a flickering light in the middle of the dark but I wasn't for sure.

"You see that Jimmy, that light?" I asked still stepping through the woods as we got closer.

"Yeah I think so." He said squinting to see better.

"Maybe that's where they are, just look out for any surprises we don't know if this clown is working with other people. And-" I warned him as we came closer to the light, but he cut me off.

We heard the door opening of a trailer and Jimmy pushed me up against a tree ducking for cover. He put his hand over my mouth so it would be quiet. He quickly peeked out from the tree and saw the clown with 2 children as he pushed them to keep walking. I tried staying frozen still in his grip. Finally when the coast was clear he loosened his grip on me.

"Sorry, did I hurt you?" He whispered to me as we slowly creeped up more toward the direction the clown was walking toward.

"Im fine." I whispered back as we passed the weathered down trailer, Im assuming the clown lived in.

As we passed the stench was disgusting as we passed by the open door of the trailer, it smelled like something was rotting. That's when it hit me, it was a rotting body or bodies who knows how many people he has killed. I pinched my nose as we continued to crouch and we slowly tailed the clown. The girl from earlier glanced back for a second and she gasped when she saw us following them. The clown kept pushing her to keep walking and I motioned for her not to say anything or make it obvious that we were behind them. She whipped her head back forward as the clown continued to push them more till they got to whatever place they were going. I looked back and I gasped at what was behind Jimmy.

"JIMMY! BEHIND YOU!" I saw him get knocked out and fall to the ground, before I knew it I felt a big bang on my head too and I fell collapsing back into the darkness.
