Sarah's POV

I take a peak through the dark red curtains. Wow. A big crowd tonight. Maybe about 60 something people.

"Sarah, you ready?" yells a familiar voice. I turn around to see David a few feet away. David is another performer. We've been best friends since the start. He's like my brother. We always have each others back.

"Ya I'm ready and you?"

"Oh ya! I'm pumped!"

"Good to know"

I take one last look at myself in the mirror. A black body suit that showed by stomach and glittering high-heels. I have a feathered mask on that hides half of my face and my hair is curly and shiny. I look pretty good and my outfit definitely suits by act.

I walk over to the back of the stage and stand beside David."Oh god, save me now!" he says.

"Come on your awesome at this. I know it!"

I run down the stairs and wave him goodbye. He smiles back and mouths "good luck" to me. I make it out of the way just in time because before I know it David is gone and the curtains are open.

"Lady's and Gentlemen, I don't know why you are here today, but I am happy you are. Tonight you will witness things that may scar you for the rest of your life and haunt you in your sleep, but just remember nothing you see here is in your imagination. This is not a scam or professional stunt men. These are real people doing real things. So in another note, enjoy the show!" that how the show always starts off. Mr. Saltzy says somethings that get people glued to their seats and then starts the show.

"First, let me welcome The Devil." The Devil was David's stage name.For the show he always wore a red shirt that showed off his abs and tight black pants. But above all his signature item was the pointy devil's tail. He was also given the name 'cause he could do some pretty insane tricks that Saltzy would say,"He could challenge the Devil with those moves!"

David stepped on stage and the crowd started cheering. He climbed up the ladder to the small platform and leapt onto the trapeze with no fear. He stood up, flipped in the air, and landed on the trapeze again. Everybody went wild. He slid down and hung on the bar with his hands. He did a flip and landed on the other trapeze that faced him. Some people just sat there asking themselves if he actually just did that while others clapped in amazement.

He finished his act and shook his tail at the crowd. Some girls stood up and started saying things like "I LOVE YOU!" and "ONLY THE DEVIL COULD DO THAT!"

Next it was Blair. Or as everybody called her "Angel". She was one of the best performers and everybody loved her. She deserved her stage name. She did Silk. Silk is pretty much a big curtain that you can do tricks on.

"May I present to you, Angel..." said Saltzy as he cued her to the stage.

She was wearing a black dress that fitted her body. She had fish net tights and huge black wings that when over her head. Her blonde hair contrasted perfectly with the black and made her look like a Dark Angel.

She climbed up the silk and raped both of her feet in each silk. She went down into splits and spun around. Her legs were perfectly strait and her body was like a statue. She was barely moving and letting the silk move naturally. After she was done she climbed to the top raped her legs and feet in some asymmetrical way and let go of the silk. Everybody stared in horror has she plummeted to the ground. The silk caught her about 2" from the ground. She stood up and tied the silk in some weird knot. She sat in it like a cocoon so nobody could see her. A few seconds later she burst out of it making her look like a butterfly with her wings. Finally, she grabbed onto the silk with one arm as she was lifted off the ground when the crew pulled the silk up. Everybody cheered and yelled and started clapping like crazy!

"Next, give it up for the one and only Sparkle!" I never really like my stage name, but it seemed to catch on so I just learned to deal with it.

I walk on stage and some of the men stand up. I start with a double back-flip and land in splits. If you haven't guessed already, I'm a contortionist. I slowly get up and go into a back walkover. I walk on my hands down the front steps off the stage. I keep walking through the aisles. I eventually get up. Some people clap. I run back to the stage and do an aerial. I do jump and do the splits in the air. My heels hit the floor hard making a clacking noise. I do a dance that involves me flipping and bending in ways that are physically impossible to describe. I can hear some people saying things like, "O.M.G, that must hurt" and, "I can't believe she just did that." There were also some whispers of, "Wow....." and, "She's crazy." I finish up and walk off stage. I look back at the audience and blow them a kiss over my shoulder. I continue walking off the stage.

David's POV

I stand there waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. She walks over and jumps into my arms giving me a big hug. I hug her back not letting her go. I hold her in a death grip.

"Umm...David...I can't breath"

"Oh, sorry," I say to her, letting her go.

"It's fine."

"You were great out there!"

"Awww thanks! So were you!" :3

"I guess, but you were amazing!"

"Well thank you"

"Hey...ummm I was just umm wondering if you wanted to go get a milkshake or something."

"I would love to, but I'm really tired and I just wanna sleep."

That kinda hurt. "Okay, I understand."

"You're the best! We can do something tomorrow."

"Ya sure!"

"Okay, well goodnight then!"

"See ya tomorrow."

"Bye"

She walks away and out of the stage.

Sarah's POV

I walk out of the stage to my tent. I'm surprised to see that Angel is already there. She's already lying in her bed reading a book. She looks so funny with her big glasses. She never wears them outside the tent and I promised not to tell anyone about them, but sometimes I just can't help but laugh. I giggle a little and lay down on my bed.

"You going to sleep too?" she asks me.

"Ya I'm so tired"

"Do you mind if I read for a bit?"

"Nope. Read away"

"Thanks!"

I quickly get changed into my pajamas and lie down on my bed. I pull the covers over my head and close my eyes...The last thing I hear is Angel saying goodnight to me...and then I fall into a deep sleep.....
