Chapter 19

    The next few days were pretty good, the crowds were loving the show, and he had finally confirmed that this was indeed the circus that the Tumbler boy was working at.  Rushing into the bosses room, he found him eating at a small feast of food, like always, and he didn't even bother to look up as he rushed in, "Speak."

    "Sir, we've located the Tumbler boy, he's in Ireland currently, with the rest of the circus."

    "Good work, and signs on Yvonne?"

    "She's currently no where in sight."

    "We can get her later, now I want you to send a squad to get the boy, but leave everyone else, he's top priority."

    "Yes sir."

...

    The day of the final show of the week had arrived, and everyone was working to get ready for the show, and Yuvraj was preparing his new arrangement of pendants for when the patrons showed up for the circus.

    Laying the last one in the glass case, he closed the pane, about to take a seat behind the table of show room, when a knock on the door reverberated into the room.

    Walking over, he open the door to find a group of people dressed similar to the people from the under water base they raided back in Hawaii.

    "What ever it is you're selling, I ain't interested, good day."

    Slamming the door on them, he locked the door and went back to the table, placing his hat on it, reached in and rummaged around in it, reaching down till his shoulder was inside, looking deep for what he was looking for.

    Finally finding it, he pulled out a tommy gun, and the cartridge full of blanks.  Going back to the door, through the one way glass, he looked out to them, seeing them discussing something, with a crowd of a few circus workers watching from a distance.

    Slowly opening the window, be quiet as to not gain their attention, he poked the gun through, then turning off the safety, he pulled the trigger, making them jump out of their skin as they scrambled off, running away like their lives depended on it.

    After they were out of sight, he opened the door, walking out looking in the direction the ran, making sure that they didn't  try to come back.

...

    Sitting in the big chair of the dimly lit yacht dining room, Ruby watched nervously at his boss, who was eating his usual endless amount of food, the room was silence, when the door opened and the scouts walked back in, all looking they had been rattled by the bones.

    "Mr. Superior sir, there's a problem."

    "And what may that be?"

    "He's a crazy maniac, he came after us with a gun, a automatic, and he was relentless."

    Turning to Ruby, the giant man with an appetite smiled at him, "Your nephew is definitely interesting, using magic with a gun."

    "Really sir?"

    "Yes, I can smell the mystic herbs mixed with tiny amounts of gunpowder on them, it would appear he shot them with enchanted blanks that introduce the victims to slight hallucinations and fear inducement."

    He sat there looking up at the big figure.  He knew that his boss had sharp senses, but he never let on that his skills were on such a level, and he had heard of moments like this from others that had worked for him longer, saying that in moments were he would get serious about something, and you knew that he was going to when he was talking about something like it was some everyday thing but would in regard relate to the said thing he was getting serious about.
