The story takes place in the years 1990/2000, somewhere in a remote countryside in the USA. This circus "recruits" by kiddnaping or by attracting children between 7 and 16 years old, who have no family to take care of them, no home where they were sold to the Ringmaster. The children are therefore forced to work in the circus, and to obey the ringmaster under penalty of violating "education lessons". The public, not being aware of what is happening backstage, is convinced that it is an innocent circus which gives new life to orphaned children. The ringmaster therefore takes advantage of all this to make as much money as possible.

(Completed) Bryan Phillips didn't have an easy life. Parents who got addicted to drugs meant doing what it took to survive. He thought blacking out when he lost his virginity was the icing on the cake... not even close. Two little words that hold so much meaning changed his world. "I'm pregnant." Becoming a parent at nineteen is no easy feat. It's even worse when your child's life is threatened. Handling a debt that his good for nothing parents owe is why he standing here at the underground boxing ring. Flexing his hand after punching the notorious Grayson Miller. Feared by most, but there is something in his eyes that Bryan can't shake. "I'm so dead Benny, what the fuck was I thinking? I can't do this!" "What other choice do you have?" I don't and that's the problem. If I don't get the money that they owe, my little girl... "Your puny ass will be dead within a week here." Grayson glares at him. "I don't have a choice, I rather it be me than my daughter." Why did I just say that? The cold dead look in the man's eyes would scare anyone away. I can't back down, no matter what. Neither one of them can look away. A familiarity, a longing one that Bryan thought he lost almost five years ago resurfaces and he doesn't understand why. "It's your funeral, meet me here tomorrow at ten, I will show you how to properly fight." The hold is broken as Grayson walks away. That was... strange, but forgotten the moment he was out of sight. Little did they both know that they shared a history that will soon come to light once training begins. How they will deal with that history is anyone's guess. Copyright © 2022 All rights reserved.

CALLIE has no family left. So she's been spending her time in the woods, picking at questionable berries and developing a dark worldview. She has a dream of vengance, to kill the man who murdered her mother. And when a seemingly random trip to the circus brings her together with some strange people, Callie finds out that her dream could become reality, and she just might tip the scales of doom and salvation in the process... ALEX is a pessimist. With good reason. His whole life has consisted of grief, pain and hardship, including occasional glimmers of happiness. But when happiness comes, it quickly fades, leaving an empty void in its place. Alex knows this, and he won't be fooled into thinking otherwise. Or will he? LUNA needs a better job. Being a trapeze artist may hide her from the government, but it's not so fun when the manager is a raving lunatic and there's likely to be a crazed pervert in the crowd. So when the big top gets demolished- literally- Luna sees it as a ticket to freedom (contracts are generally void once a business has been destroyed). What she doesn't see are the doors to her past creaking open, and their contents coming to haunt her. ZACH is normal...ish. As normal as a Gifted kid can be. His brand of normalcy includes a kickass grandma, childhood trauma and your everyday run of the mill dragon, but hey, he's not as insane as the others. Really, Zach is thirsting for adventure. Something that doesn't involve babysitting siblings or feuding with his parents. He should've been careful what he wished for.
