After school, you get permission from your parents to head to the Cirque-Du-Bizarre, and wait for your friends at the bus stop, because you don't have a map to get there. Lee, Jake, and Janice arrive next to you once it became 4:30 P.M. The bus hasn't showed up, so you both had plenty of time before the show.
"What goes on, Shane?" Lee asks. "Did you get permission from your parents?" "Yes, but the problem is, I didn't take any map with me," You answer. "I don't even know where the Cirque-Du-Bizarre tent is." "I downloaded the map online," Janice explains. "We'll tell the bus driver to go to a circus tent." "Can't be too hard to find," Jake comments. The bus finally arrives, and you pay the driver, after telling him your location, and he takes you to the big top tent Janice was talking about.
Once the bus stops, you get off, and notice a sign in front of the tent. The sign says, "Cirque-Du-Bizarre. Home to Mutants, Myths, and Anthros". "Well, the sign tells no lies," Janice says. "Let's head inside." "But no one else is here," You explain. "Shouldn't we wait for others to arrive, before we go in?" "I thought you wanted to see a freakshow, not wait outside," Jake comments. "It'll be fine, Shane," Lee says. "We'll just find our seats in the audience, and wait for the others to come." "Yes, we wouldn't want the others to get jealous of your early appearance," a voice agrees. "Would we?" "Who said that?" You ask. "Must be the ring master of this joint," Lee answers.
