Last days of spring and summer right around the corner. Signs all around town announcing that a carnival is coming.  I love carnivals....except for the clowns. God i hope there aren't any clowns. 

The sky suddenly grew dark, a storm? Almost as if it were following some immense evil. Might just be my imagination. Carnival music fills the air, almost as if the carnival was already here. Lights over the horizon, wait what?  Rounding the corner I see a Ferris Wheel, a merry-go-round, and loads of games, but...this wasn't here yesterday. How did they set up so fast?

I round the corner to go to my house, to get ready, my mother is waiting for me there.

"You gonna head to the carnival in a bit, Y/N?" She asked.

  "Sure am, mom." I replied, the sound of excitement too much to contain.

"Well I want you to be careful, I have a weird feeling about it." She says, her voice seems a little shakey.

"Oh mom, it's just a carnival." I tell her. Almost immediately after I say this a bolt of lightning strikes over head. "Wow. That was ominous." I say jokingly.  After I reassure her, I head inside to get changed and head off to the carnival.

 At the entrance to the carnival stands a man at a small stage, his voice a little deep but still inviting. "LADIES AND GENTALMEN! BOYS AND GIRLS! COME ONE COME ALL TO RINGMASTER EJ'S DARK CARNIVAL! WITNESS SIGHTS YOU WON'T FIND ANYWHERE ELSE!" He then approaches me. "Young lady, tell me," he begins, "Do you like Markiplier? Jacksepticeye? Maybe Pewdiepie?"

I nod excitedly, "I love all of them!" He then points to a large tent at the back of the carnival.

"Then, young lady, you are in for a treat." He hands me a ticket. "What's your name?"

"Y/N," I tell him. I take the ticket from him and look over to the tent.

"Well then, Y/N, you will be very excited to see what I have in there." He then walks back to his stage and calls more attention to the carnival.  I start making my way to the tent, the smells of the many delicious treats fill the air. Oh yum, caramel apples, funnel cakes, taffy, and cotton candy. I make a few stops and get some treats. YAY! I'm so happy now.

Slowly, I make my way to the back tent, a sign out front reads, "Enter at your own risk." Eh maybe to keep the little kids out. I walk in and the tent is so dark I can only see about 2 feet in front of me. "Why is is so dark?" I call out, not expecting a response.

Surprisingly, a deep sultry voice answers, "For more of a dramatic effect." Wait....I know that voice.

"Markiplier?" I ask. A red light turns on to reveal someone in a glass cage.

"Well your half right." It was Darkiplier. I take a step back and bump into another cage. A green light coming on, I turn around and see two green eyes looking back. Antisepticeye.

"What....HOW?!" I scream, "This is impossible." 

A third voice comes through the darkness, "I'm trying to take a nap over here." A yellow light comes on to reveal that PewDIEpie was laying in his cage.

Scared out of my mind, I run out of the tent only to be greeted by Ringmaster EJ again.

"Well, Y/N, what did you think?" He asks me, I still have a stunned look on my face.

"How is this possible?" I say.

"Well, that is a trade secret, but I WILL tell you that it wasn't easy." He then walks into the tent leaving me there. "We will be here for a week, so come back whenever you wish."

Still stunned, I rush back home and into my room. How could this even be possible? How did he capture them? And the bigger question...Who is Ringmaster EJ?
