I smiled watching the sun rise across the empty horrizon the early morning light hitting my skin it felt warm it was so pretty to watch the sun rise as the train rushed off in this ever going direction, I had no idea where we where going but I didnt care anywhere was better then where I started, I have been on here a couple days now we had made no stops so far I managed to sneak forward a couple cars in my time and found the one two a head of me had fruit being shipped so I had been stealing apples and oranges whenever I got hungry the bathroom is pretty easy its a moving train you can imagine what I do, I watched as I saw a few little houses and shops we where coming up to a town or so it seemed I hid myself away as we got closer in fear of someone seeing me I was changing my clothes when we finaly stopped it felt strange to not be moving once I was finsihed with my clothes I looked out as people began unpacking the other carriages on the train, I saw a sign by the track 'Billersbury' it read I hopped off the train for a moment sneaking away and looking around the station I saw a little bit of paper reading that the train I was one was going to be leaving at seven this evening so I had some time to wander about this place many people looked at me like I was a dirty dog so I went to the little mens room in the train station cleaning myself up with the water as I was I heard some other men coming in they didn't notice me they just went to the urinals chatting with each other "Hey you taking Penelopy and the kids up to that circus tonight?" one man asked the other

"I might do, they say the show they put on his amazing, pretty pricey though, but I suppose you get what you pay for" the other man answered

"well it is there last night, I have to Little lucy's been begging me all week to take her" the man laughed as he finished up and came over washing his hands the other man came over to wash up a little in the sinks beside me

"Uhh... how much is the circus? And where is it?" I ask a little curious both men looked at me like I was insane speaking to them

"The edge of town, big purple tent, its about three pennies a person" the second man smiled at me

"Thank you" I nod as the two left I checked my bag I didn't have any money at all so I slipped my pack on and went off walking through the town I kept my eyes on the floor looking for pennies any at all my whole walk through town I gathered two pennies worth in change and I saw the tent by now it was getting dark I still had time about an hour or so till the train left without me I cued up with all the other people

"Next!" The man called "three pennies kid" He told me

"I only have two, Please I wont need a seat I'll just stand in the ilse or something, Please I'm a little thing I wont take up much space" I plead

"Three or get lost kid" He told me so I sighed leaving the line and going to the side sitting next to a dumpster and just like that it started to rain just as I was about to get up and go back to the train heard someone walk out the tent I looked and I froze it was a girl, in a little purple and white dress her hair plaited and tied up in a sweet little style her lips a dark red clashing to her pale skin she giggled stepping out letting the rain run down her skin she seemed so happy her smile wide she looked beautiful I moved a little trying to see her better but I hit a box close to the dumpster tipping it over causing it and a few little things around it to crash to the floor with a few loud sounds and the smashing of broken glass

"Someone there?" she asks so I hid away from her not wanting her to see me "Hello?" she asks again coming closer to where I was hiding

"Dasiy come on, It's starting!" a voice called

"Ohh coming" she answered and I heard her running off towards the tent again I smiled a little I don't know why but seeing her made me feel warm and happy for the first time in so long but I jumped as I saw her again she poked her head around the dumpster to see me "Hello" she giggled

"Hello" I smile

"Are you alright?" she asks kneeling down beside me

"Ohh... fine just a little cold. I wanted to see the show but I don't have enough" I sigh

"Oh, come on" she smiled grabbing my hand and helping me up tugging me towards the little gap she came out, she pulled me inside without much of a word it was huge we where in the backstage part where acts where getting ready with props and things everywhere "Come on you can watch from back here, its much better from back here anyway" she smiles tugging me with her around a corner and I could see the show we where at the side of the stage she got a little chair putting it beside one already here and sitting down "Come on, I won't bite" she smiles so I happily sat down with her we sat watching the show for a good long while it was amazing funny jokes and amazing stunts till the people began leaving the stage everyone out there gave them a standing ovation we both clapped a lot even if knowone looked at us tucked up this little secret corner as some things where cleaned up "So what's your name?" she asks me

"Ohh... sorry, benny, benny Burton" I smile

"Nice to meet you benny" she smiles "Daisy, Dasiy Delane" she smiled holding out her hand so I smiled giving her hand a little kiss making her giggle giving my cheek a little peck making me blush bright red "I will be back in a second" she smiles getting up I sat for a while watching as things got sorted out till a man came out well dressed with a suit and cane

"ladies and gentlemen and little children, tonight in this very special last performance this year we give you the master Lou Freakshow!" he yelled and everyone cheered I kept looking around for daisy to get back as people came to the stage some moving fire others water all with such amazing abilities, some it drastically altered there appearances like the man with two stomachs and the three armed man, others you would never know until the man yelled there stage name I couldn't remember any of there real names but lots of there stage names they where all so cool I couldn't believe these people where so happy to perform with there abilities I can't believe Daisy was missing this where was she? Till the stage cleared for the next act "now ladies hang on to your husbands, as we give you the exotic, the erotic, Magical Mistress, The songstress" he called as the room went dark and I heard a song it was so beautiful the most beautiful singing I had ever heard as light came up I saw daisy stood in a long black dress her singing was so beautiful it was the first time there was silence for an act when she sang it was like the world stood still till she left the stage people applauded like crazy I even stood trying my best to make her hear me till more acts came on and a little while later she came back in her purple dress like before sitting back down with some popcorn

"Daisy, you- you where amazing" I tell her

"Umm thank you" she smiles

"No really I've never heard anyone sing like that before? It was beautiful" I smile

"Aww thank you" she smiles giving my cheek another little peck

"I should get going soon" I tell her

"ohh why? The shows not even over yet?" she asks

"I know But I have to get on my train" I tell her

"Train to where?" she asks eating her popcorn

"I'm... I'm not too sure really I just jumped on a few stops ago, I'm just a stowaway but its somewhere" I shrug

"so you have no where to go? Your saying stowed away in some train carriage?" she asks and I nod

"Benny, I know you've never met me before but how about you come with us? We are heading back to the campgrounds, you could come with us" she smiles "we could give you a little tent and stuff for the winter grounds, and you could help out, like sewing or washing or helping practice" she suggests

"You wouldn't mind?" I ask her

"No, not at all" she smiles

"Well, that would be nice, I will happily it will work so you weren't just giving it to me for nothing" I tell her

"It's alright, when the show is over you can help me pack up the costumes" she laughs "Here have some popcorn" she smiles offering me some

"sure daisy" I laugh having a little of her propcorn.
