Brendon Urie is a centuries year old man who has been doing one thing his entire existence. He's run a circus. It started out as a small circus, with your average run of the mil performers. Soon, though, it started to change. The circus started traveling, and it grew faster than anyone could have ever thought. No one really thought anything about it, though, because they had no idea it existed. The only thing it left behind was a slew of missing persons. After the first fifty years, Brendon learned to keep things a little more secret. Only take people who no one would notice were missing. Only take the ones who he could easily manipulate. It worked, because he had the most beautiful shows in the entire world. People paid big money to go to The Circus of Unimaginable Things. They would pay, see, and forget. Brendon eventually picked one man to become the star of his shows. Well, not really a man. A nineteen year old who went by Ryan Ross. An already fake name. It was easy work to turn Ryan into a show, and Ryan remained Brendon's favorite and only performer that was allowed to keep his mind. That is, until a green-eyed girl showed up. Things quickly started changing. Ryan craved to leave. Brendon craved more power. And the girl? Well, she just wanted to forget. Ryden, Ryan/OC, Brendon/OC

He lit his cigarette, I lit nothing. He drank alcohol, I drank water. He smirked, I smiled. He didn't love me, I didn't love him. He and I together wouldn't last a day. And then the game started... He said he found me intriguing, unique, and interesting because I didn't swoon over him. "You and me Grey, let's play a game. We'll date and in three months time I promise you will fall for me. When you fall in love with me between that time span, I win. If in any way you were to win I'll give up all the alcohol, cigarettes, and player ways." It was a game I wasn't willing to lose, but all games had accidents and consequences. It takes a broken heart to know how to break a heart.
