    All is well in the Australian Colony of Port Victory until a convict doing time for pickpocketing turns up. Josie has a familiar glint in her eyes and a nickname the towns people swear they have heard before. This is a fanfic of the Disney+ show "The Artful Dodger". All rights reserved. I only claim my original plot lines and characters as my own. Several of the main characters were not my ideas. This fanfic maybe not be completely lore accurate (especially with the upcoming release of season 2) however I try my best to make sure nothing is completely out of this world.

    This is a description of the 1850s which I had created as homework for my English lesson. It is familiar with Black Butler's concept, yet it doesn't exactly base itself off of the storyline, only the surroundings; wealth, and overall the Victorian times. I decided to post it here in hope that it may inspire others, or I can receive criticism to improve in the future, it may just be entertainment too. Thank you for reading!

    Daisy Armstrong had just come to the capital for her first public appearance, according to her mother's wish, some sight-seeing, according to her wish, and a sketched picture of Prince Richard, according to her sister's wish. For the last wish to be fulfilled though, she needed to meet the prince. The 'how' was still sketchy... until the prince himself came to her. Prince Richard only wanted to use the red-haired little Miss to win over his love, that was all. He never bargained for his cool reserve to be broken, his reputation to be slashed, or his heart to be stolen. ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ Excerpt: "I am not your betrothed, Your Highness." She retorted in frustration. "Alright, if you wish for me to stay unmarried, I'll become an old maid and commit to a nunnery. Will that be enough to make you leave me in peace and marry Juliet?" He held out his hand to her. Thinking he wanted her to hand back his coat, she picked it up and extended it to him. He swang her out of her seat. Her startled cry came when she realised her face was pressed against a wall that held his musky scent and she couldn't free herself from the clasp at her nape try as she did. Then suddenly, she could breathe freely again. She stared in bewilderment at the handsome face hovering close to hers. Before she could discern his intention, she felt his lips on hers. The kiss wasn't like the first one they shared. She felt his power and authority and his ruthlessness in the way he possessed her. She grew frightened, even so, her body began to melt under his touch. Down in the pit of her stomach, she had the unsettling feeling he was teaching her a lesson. He stopped kissing her and nudged her chin up. "No nunnery will open its doors for you if you're not a virgin. I'll take the option of being a nun from you which will leave you with only one choice; marry me. Your father will have it no other way if I tell him about what we're about

    Vala, the elder twin by mere minutes, stood as the protective shield between her naive sister Dotty and the cruel whims of their circus master, Mr. Mint. Behind his charming, eccentric facade, Mr. Mint hid a sinister nature, exploiting the sisters' talents for his own twisted desires. Vala's keen intuition always sensed the danger lurking beneath Mr. Mint's sugary smile, while Dotty's innocence made her vulnerable to his manipulations. But Vala's own world was now unraveling. Haunting nightmares and visions plagued her, featuring a mysterious twin who mirrored her and Dotty's identical features. The phantom twin's desperate cries for help echoed in Vala's mind, leaving her with an unsettling sense of foreboding. As Vala's grip on reality began to slip, her usually flawless contortionist performances suffered. She stumbled, lost focus, and made uncharacteristic mistakes. The pressure mounted, and Vala wondered: Was she losing her grip on sanity, or was something more sinister at play? With each passing night, the visions intensified. The unknown twin's pleas grew louder, more urgent. Vala became convinced that this mysterious sibling was in grave danger, and that their connection was more than just a product of her fevered imagination. Determined to unravel the mystery, Vala began to investigate the depths of Mr. Mint's twisted circus. She scoured the shadows, seeking answers to the questions swirling in her mind: Who was this phantom twin? What did she want from Vala? And what secrets lay hidden beneath the circus's glittering facade? As Vala delved deeper into the darkness, she risked exposing the very evil she sought to escape. Would she find the truth, or would Mr. Mint's sinister games consume her completely?
