Harmony looked up to the older boy."I don't know...He hurt,perhaps he need sleep." Harmony said a hint of unconvincing in her voice.

Bobby stared at an unconscious Seth for a moment longer before he forced his head up to look around. Senna wasn't in the green room... he assumed this meant she was first in the line of performances to follow.

Siff appeared in the Green room behind Bobby. He kept his hands together, avoiding any contact with any of the kids.
"Senna will not be performing in the big top. She is now in side show, I expect that you will not be visiting her is that clear?"
He smirked and looked around to Seth.
"Seth has no more last chances. This is his last, If you don't want him gone you will make sure he doesn't disobey me again. Make sure you all keep in line. For now I must leave and make sure the rest of the performance goes smoothly."
Siff turned and waived a small salute to them before disappearing into the shadows of the room.
((Greasy if you wanted to play some characters for the freak show that Senna could be talking to.))

After Siff disappeared Seth came too and opened her eyes.He struggled to sit up but eventually did it.He held his wound where he got shot and growled in frustration."Damn that man...I hate him...how dare he make a side show of her.Of any of us for that matter..."

Bobby practically jumped out of his skin by the sudden presence of the ringmaster behind him. He turned abruptly and kept a stare trained to Siff as the spoke- it took a moment after he left for the small acrobat to register what he had said. The sideshow? Well, it was Senna's first show... at this carnival, at least.

Harmony looked back and forth to where Blondie had been and Seth, "Well...We don't want to put Senna on the spotlight instantly... Isn't that like some business way?" Harmony said.

"She was with the sideshow in the grand entry."
Grace said rolling her eyes. She showed up behind the others walking up to Seth.
"Seth you're okay, and I suspect that Senna won't be bothering us with her crazy ideas of escaping where she is now..."
She started picking up some things around the room placing them away on hooks. There was not much she could do now till it was her turn in the show. From this point it would be another blinding, unmemorable night of seeing those shadowy guests watch them. The slowed music and thick dusty air that made that time seem even longer each and every show. Grace sighed and looked back to Bobby.
"Bobby, Kids, please don't visit Senna, you know we aren't allowed to visit the sideshows."
Siff appeared in the sideshow sitting on a chair nearby Senna. The room was rather dark, dim without any people coming through. Siff crossed his leg and held his hands together leaning over.
"Senna, I expect you to not leave the Midway for any reason. You are to stay here and keep up the moral of the freak show and that is all. Are you clear, Scarlet Angel?"
Senna looked up. Confused, upset, and sorta happy to see Siff. She shook her head and stood up.
"Will, I can stay here but, how are we going to remove this, whatever this energy is that is keeping us here if we are being separated. The other workers, all the workers. I didn't even know this place had a freak show till now."
It was obvious that she wasn't too happy about the circumstances that began piling up in the Carnival. There were other people here, people she didn't know. In the show, there were dozens, several dozens of workers performing. When all she'd known was the kids, Grace, and Victoria.
Siff smiled and stood up.
"So, you want me to keep you chained here? Scarlet Angel, you are my Scarlet Angel and you will perform how I want you to. When you are done doing your job, when I say your done you may worry about leaving this place but not until then. Please, take heed that this is a warning. Being placed to work here."
He walked to Senna and brushed her hair to the side and then pulled out a red corset tossing it to the ground next to her.
"I believe you lost this. You might want to wear it for the guests."
Siff leaned in closely to her touching the side of her face with a smirk.
"Please, I don't want to be unkind to my new worker. If you don't argue with me, and do exactly as I ask of you, I will take into consideration your idea of /leaving/ my Carnival."
Senna froze, completely stricken by surprise that he'd found her corset. His glare, had almost frozen her, as he leaned in towards her. She felt highly intimidated, as though she was a helpless child. Her face was blush as he stared at him, speechless.
Siff stood up after giving her a deceptive smile. He walked away before she could say another word disappearing into the dark of the room towards the doorway.

Bobby watched as the medic spoke to them, and looked down to the ground once they were addressed.
"Yes, Grace."
He knew that at any moment, he would appear once again in the bright spot lights at the top of one of the Big Top's tall beams- the cheering yet distant crowd all around.

Senna stood silently before falling to the floor in disbelief of what had happened. She didn't want to think that Siff was trying to keep them in this place. She'd already been placed, trapped in a carnival.
Siff controlled the change of the carnivals shows. With every show, Siff controlled the aspects bringing out the acts for their guests. Everything running smoothly, just the same as it did the week before, and the week before that and Before the workers knew it the show had been over. The workers were all back in the arena for the finale where they were to perform their encores as the guests left.
After announcing the show had been done he sworn everyone out of the tent at the main entrance thanking people and asking to come again. He bowed and shook hands with the guests as they left.
((Okay guys, I think that, maybe the shows won't be so important, they wont' really make any sense to go into detail and still need to get greasy in 3nodding ))

Seth just sat there letting his angry boil.When all the performers left to resume the show he stood up and made his way out of the green room.He had no reason to stay anyway.He leaned on nearby walls and trees heading to the graveyard.He somehow made it there and fell on his knees next to a tomb stone."I should be here..."He said to himself as tears fell."Damn him...how could he just...dammit..."He gripped the moist dirt in his hands squeezing it as tight as he could.

((Sorry for my absence y'all. Writer's block sucks.))
Huck had gotten up but had not went to the exit . . . something seemed a little interesting. Of course, he also owed some people a good lot of money. However despite the . . . off feeling of the area, he went to Siff.
"'Scuse me, sir. I was wond'rin' if ya had some work fer me." he said, his thick Kentucky accent was hard to hide . . . much less truly comprehend in some rare cases.

((I have decided the official name for this Carnival it is " Cirque Du clandestinité" ))
Siff shot his attention toward Huck before he'd actually acknowledged his presence outwardly. He finished greeting the vast majority of the guests leaving Huck stand there for a bit before turning slowly to him.
"I have many workers on hand already, my question is what can you provide my Carnival that I already don't have."
Siff hadn't had any workers from the America's join his Carnival in nearly 50 years, it would be a fine addition so long as the man could do some work.

Huck smirked. For someone who seemed like the head honcho, he REALLY didn't have to ask that. But to humor the man, the Kentucky boy brought out a nice looking throwing knife and smiled at the man.
"Mister, d'ya see that sign up yonder?" Huck asked, pointing at the sign over the main gate. If he did, he'd best take a look. Senna may witness Huck putting a nice knife into that sign.

By this time Senna had reached the opposite wall in her trailer that the guests had come to view the scarlet angel in. There was several gaps in the rotted wood that she could peak through out of the dimly lit room. She leaned against the wood and turned slightly to view the people leaving. The carnival was rather dim and the time she spent in there seemed long winded. She spotted Siff in the crowd he'd been looking in her direction down midway but she didn't react, something she felt like there was no point to reacting to.
Siff watched and nodded to Huck as to where the sign was placed. The freak show sign, it was a wooden sign hanging over midway from a few strands of gold chain. He didn't stop Huck from attempting to show off but looked back to him.
"Make the top serif of the F on the sign and the Job is automatically yours."

Huck looked at the top serif over the sign and smirked. "Alright, butcha may wanna stan' back, mister. Doan' want you gettin' stuck by this thang." he drawled. Spinning it so that he was holding it by the blade, he took a step back and let it fly towards the sign at a stunning velocity. He watched the knife as it flew towards the sign, almost as if he was guiding it with his eyesight.
