My Time at the Circus


There was once a girl named Rose who loved to go to her grandmas house. The time before She had gone to her house her grandma had given her a relic to keep safe from her mother. It was a small hand mirror that had a beautiful frame. In one day Rose would go visit her grandma and she was so excited because her grandma said that she had a special surprise for her this time. When Rose got to her grandma's house she handed her two tickets to the circus! Rose was so excited! When they got to the circus and the show began the lights dimmed and there was a large ballyhoo sounding from nowhere. Then all of a sudden a ton of circus performers came out and started to act extremely zany. They were doing amazing tricks and stunts. Two clowns came out and started to pretend to argue making it look like they were a couple of sticklers, then bopping each other on the heads with fake bats. When the clowns went away blue sparkling lights came on making it look like almost an aquatic scene. Then a spotlight rise up high and shined on a tight rope walker that was on a bicycle. She slowly rode across the rope and in the middle she made it look like she was stuck but then she sped to the other side extremely fast then stood up and everyone applauded. Clowns came out again and decided to pick one person in the aduience to come on stage and they picked Rose! Rose did have a problem though. Rose was scared of clowns and she did not want to go up and preform with them. Her grandma encouraged her to go and when she wouldn't the whole crowd started chanting "Do it, Do it!" Rose grasped the bottom of her chair and slowy pleeled a finger away one by one and slowly stood up to go on stage. She felt like she was being abducted. When she got on stage she sqeuled as the clowns grabbed her arms and sat her down in a chair. Then they pulled out paints from their sleeves and started to paint her face at a very high pace. She closed her eyes the whole time, and when they announced that they were done she slowly opened her eyes and looked around
