Emotionless Red

Chapter 3

Red’s POV:

I turned to face the person in the alley way and it was none other than Road.

I looked at her before responding in a flat tone. “Hello Road.”

She just smiled wider at my response, even though I thought it would’ve made her smile falter, even if just a little.

She skipped towards me while holding a pink umbrella with a little orange pumpkin on the top. She stops in front of me.

“It’s nice to see you again, Red.”

I looked her over and took a step back because there was something about her that screamed out dangerous.  Her smile just becomes a little wider and I swore that if she smiled any wider her face could, and probably would, split apart.

She digs her hand into her pocket and grabbed something, shoving it in her mouth. She put her hand back in her pocket and pulled out some candy which she offered to me but I just shook my head, stepping back again. 

“Why were you following me?”

She tilted her head slightly to the left. “I was wondering how your life was, and how did you know I was watching you?” One of her eyebrow rose for the last part of the sentence.

I just looked her in the eyes. “I had a feeling it was you.”

She just giggled at my response and turned on her heel to walk back down the alleyway, swinging the pink umbrella.  “Goodbye Red. See you again soon.”

With that she disappeared into the crowd.

I turned and walked back to the circus. As I walked snowflakes began to fall. I stopped and looked at the sky as the snowflakes drifted down from the sky and landed in my dirty red hair, giving it the appearance that it was sparkling.

When I arrive at the entrance of the circus tent I saw Mana and Allen practicing tricks for their act.

I stood there and watch for a while but when I didn’t want to watch anymore I left and retired for the night.

Red’s Dream

Everything was black. I couldn’t see anything but that is until a light lit up the blackness. I looked to the light and saw a bright white crescent moon. I looked away from the moon and looked at my surroundings.

There dead trees everywhere and there was a small lake but you could not see anything in the water because it was black.  You could only see about 2 meters from the lake then a dense wall of fog covered the rest. There was a gentle breeze but the wind change and then became still. I looked around to see someone sitting in a tree. I walked towards the tree. After I was close enough I could see who it was. Sitting on the branch of the tree was Road. She offered her hand to me to help me up. I took her hand and she helped pull me up. She smiled at me and went back to looking at the moon in the red sky. After while Road spoke. “Red, why don’t you have emotions? Out of every person I have met you are the only person I have seen without a trace of emotions. It’s quiet strange but intriguing in some ways. So why?”

 I looked at her and turn my gaze back to the sky. “If you live like I did before coming to the circus then you would now why I don’t have emotions. I don't have emotions because what they did to me over the years.”

 After I said that a fire began to burn the dead trees in the distance. Then there was people shouting and running after someone. Once they caught the person they tied his arms and legs down. One of the villagers had an axe in his a hand and walked closer to the boy who was tied down. The person with the axe then pulled down the axe and tried to cut his left arm off.  The boy scream for them to stop and did that several times before the boy was able to escape and disappeared in to the trees. The fire then went out and the villagers disappear in to the shadows.

Road looked at me her eyes wide. ”Was that you Red?”

I nodded. “They called me names, tried to cut off my left arm and burn me. I managed to get away but after it all I became broken and lost all my emotions. I couldn't even force myself to have feelings.”

Road looked at me her eyes were wider than they were before she had a frown on her face. She nearly looked on the verge of tears. She decided to give me a warming hug but when she hug me I still could not bring myself to feel anything.

When she let go she had a small smile on her face. “That’s terrible what they did to you but why didn't anyone come to save you like family or a friend.”

I looked away from her and turned my gaze to the dead trees. "My parents left me at birth. I then went to orphanage to orphanage. I than ran away and came to a village. The villages found out about my arm and tried to rid me of it or kill me. After that I found a travelling circus and joined it. I was yelled at to do things and beaten daily by an ass faced clown. That is how my life has been so far. What about you Road how is your life. Also how are you in my dream? That is not normal but neither am I so it does not matter if you don't answer the question."

Road had a sad smile on her face until she told about her own life. "I was adopted when I was young and became very fond to my dad. He loves me and so does my mum and uncle. I play around with my uncle and go to school. None of the kids at school come near me because they say I'm too weird and crazy. I don't mind what they say because I have a family who makes me happy. No, this is not normal. I have a power so that I can enter or control people’s dreams. I can make them have nightmares or good dreams."

She smiled at me then jumped off the branch and landed on the ground. I jumped off and joined her on the ground.

She looked towards me with a kind smile. “Red I hope that you have happiness in your life at some point and farewell for now. I shall see you again soon" She waved and then disappeared.

End Of Red's Dream

I woke up at sunrise and thought to myself 'that was probably the best amount of sleep. I have ever had.'
