Getting off the carriage that was set to bring him to town, he found himself in a busy street. However, he wasn’t daunted, and quickly set to look for a place to hang around-at least, until Ness arrived. Something had gotten his attention before that happened, however.
Lucas found himself entranced by the two that stood before him-the two heads that shared one body. Following the parka-wearing freak, he found himself at a circus called the “Dark Wood Circus”. Curiosity got the better of him, however, as the circus was mostly closed off except for those few that actually worked there.
Before he could go much further, he was stopped by the sight of the two that stood ten meters tall. The adults continued to dance away, their feet never actually touching the ground. The dance was amazing, captivating him, and he wished to see more. However, they disappeared to a place that he couldn’t follow them to.
Deciding that he had done enough staring (and not at the attractions), he made his way to the tent, in which he saw that there were only peek-holes to look into.
Peeking into one of those holes open for one to peer through, he was shocked to see what he was seeing. There stood three people, a man that seemed to be eating human arms, a boy that wore a suit too tattered to be considered proper and the two heads that shared one body.
The boy in the suit stood suddenly, and whispered, “This life we live is horrible, but it can’t be helped. We must do what it takes to survive.” His head suddenly turned to face Lucas, and he couldn’t help but be taken aback by the pain and sorrow those eyes held.
The male head-the creature with two heads had a female and male one, if Lucas wasn’t mistaken-spoke up as a hand reached out to caress the boy’s cheek. “Red, you know we have no choice but to endure this, right? You admitted as much, especially when there’s no escape from a hellhole like this,” the child continued to whisper.
The girl spoke up before “Red” could answer. “Why would you want to escape from here~? It’s fun, is it not, Popo~? We should all stay in the circus to perform forever~ That’s what I want to do, and you should want to do that too~”
Closing his eyes, Red whispered, “Just let me die. Let me die! I don’t want to be here, and I don’t want to live any longer.” His expression would cause even the stoic to feel pity for this man-he obviously didn’t like it here (probably abhorred staying in the circus) but couldn’t escape.
To watch the three of them sitting together, two of them not even hiding their pitiful looks while the only female looked too giddy for her own good. Lucas couldn’t understand any of this, this insanity that was right before him for everyone to see. To make it worse, he knew that others had come here, and saw this, based on the long line.
The four humans (though the person called “Red” had horse legs) were pitiful creatures, and he wondered idly, almost subconsciously, about how these adults could look at them as if they were some type of treasure to be shown off.
It was horrifying, the thought of being locked up here all alone, with these other pitiful creatures that wouldn’t provide much other than sympathy. Closing his eyes, Lucas made his way to the exit, hoping that he would be able to catch the carriage on time the next day, only to be stopped by someone that looked similar to him but larger.
The smirk the man had was terrifying, but he wasn’t going to back… Well, he should at least consider the idea of running. As if the man could read his thoughts, he was suddenly picked up and thrown somewhere terrifying.
The next morning, he went to see the people in the carriage. Sneaking out had been easier than he had thought, even if the idea of running with the carriage had been tempting. Closing his eyes, Lucas knew that he couldn’t escape if he valued his family’s lives (along with his own.)
With a grin and tears falling, he murmured the words, “It’s fun.”
Laughing at the irony behind his words, words he was forced to say, he ran away to the circus deep in the woods, where he would become good friends with everyone. At least, he hoped to put a smile on Red’s face, the boy who looked so terrified and scared.
