Circus Monster: A Black Butler Fanfic

Circus Freak

Isabella's POV

They all gave me a glare. Each glare said something different. I know them all by name. I just wanted to be apart of something. My name is Isabella Anderson and I am twelve. I'm an orphan. My parents died in a work accident. My family consisted of my mom, dad, and I. We didn't have a lot of money just our love and happiness. They died when I was 11. It's been a year now. I continued to practice not letting anything stand in my way, so here I am, auditions for the Noah's Ark Circus. "So we know you're cute and all but what can you do?" Joker asked in rather bit serious tone. "Well I'm a contortionist, acrobat, trapeze artist, tightrope walker, gymnast, dancer, and singer." I said with confidence as they gasped in shock. I remember my parents making me practice all these feats and tricks to have remarkable flexibility with education of course. "That's impossible!" Beast said. "No it isn't, I've done this since I was five Miss Beast." Beast didn't look to pleased with my answer. "Show us." Dagger chuckled. I knew they underestimated me. I didn't mind that they didn't believe because I was gonna show what I can do. I scanned the faces around and only nod was familiar to me. The queen's noble guard dog, Ciel Phantomhive. What the hell was he doing here?! Although, I've never met him in person . I've just seen him around town. Ciel was my age so I wondered why he always looked so serious. Now here he is ... smiling. "Ok let's start off with contortion." Joker said. I simply nodded and thought what contortion position I should do. I did one of my favorites. I did a simple handstand as one of my legs touched over and below my head. They stared in shock and bewilderment. "Ok what's next?" I asked flipping out of the handstand. "Acrobatic performance." Joker said. I went and found a silk rope to attach myself too. Once I did, it was so easy. I twirled and flipped around the rope with no hesitation. "What's next?" I asked. "Trapeze." I shrugged knowing this was my favorite. I got a good grip on the horizontal bar. There were two to be exact. I decided to jump from one to the other somersaulting. The moment I swung from the first bar, I immediately flipped to the second one on my feet. I swung down and gave a quick curtsy as a lady should. Next was tightrope walking. It wasn't easy but it is rewarding knowing you got across safely and amazingly. I decided to do a couple tricks on the thin rope. Front handspring after front handspring, I made it across the rope. Gymnastics was too easy for me. I stood across the floor with a smile. I ran, jumped, and did back handsprings galore, aerial gymnastics, and layouts. It was so simple. Next, dance. I did pirouettes, fouettés, I did tango, waltz, lyrical, ballet, cha cha, and salsa. Still too easy. Singing was next. I cleared my throat and began to sing an opera piece. When I finished singing, I thought this was too easy. "Bitch." I heard someone mutter. "She think she's all that." I heard snickers and scoffs in the crowd. I stared at their annoyed faces. "Welcome." Joker oddly spoke. "W-what?" I said looking up at him confused. "Welcome to Noah Ark Circus little lady." He smiled. "I-I made it?!" I asked. He nodded. "Let's see let's give 'ye a stage name eh." Joker smiled. "How bout "Princess"." Beast said sarcastically. "Ok Beast, that's a great name!" Joker exclaimed. Doll growled infuriated by this decision of name. My new stage name is Princess, this should be great. "OK IT IS DECIDED!" Joker said among the whispers and snickers. "Huh?!" We all said. "PRINCESS WILL SLEEP IN A FIRST STRING TENT!" "F-first string?" I asked looking up at joker. "You're gonna be one of our main performers, you don't have stage fright right?" He asked with a smile. I smiled. "I don't have stage fright."
