The Red Ribbon

The year is 1932. For young Clarence, the animal handler, all he remembers is the circus. He was born there, and was 5 when his parents died. He wanted to stay at the circus the rest of his life, it's where everything he knew was, and at 17, it's time for him to step into adulthood, and the fears the come along with it. Young Katherine, or rather Kitty, wasn't too different. She was told she was taken from England a long while ago but she doesn't remember that. Now 17, Kitty has become the lead ballerina for her circus. "J.W.J.'s WONDER CIRCUS" has been her whole life. It's where she wants to work, it's where her friends are, and her home. Everything was nice. For the both of them. Until one day, everything changed. Maybe a little fire on the tent was strange, nothing to be concerned about though. Or, perhaps some loose lions from the animals tent was a peculiar circumstance. Maybe Joanna, the acrobat and Margot, the contortionist, disappearing for 6 days was EVEN stranger. But, the thing that didn't add up, was that it all happened with in 1 day. Maybe something isn't as it seems. Maybe things are meant to rot. Maybe some things can't be saved. Maybe some things are meant to be forgotten. And maybe sometimes, things have to die....And where did that red ribbon come from?
