Roleplaying

I knocked on the door. No one answered. "Ben its me cherry..." I choked out. "are you ok because jaren was upset and I didn't know where you were and..." I couldn't finish. Why was I so attachted to him? Did Ben even care? I didn't know. He was one of the only people that seemed to care other then lily. "he probably isn't there..." I said about to leave. But then I heard something moving on the inside. "Ben?" I looked at the shiny reflection of the door and saw how horrible my face looked. Maybe I should leave before he opens the door. I heard something else shift in the room. "no you have to make sure he is ok!" a voice said. I and listened...

"...why do you still call me Ben? Everyone calls me Kyru now,... and you know exactly why." I asked, without opening the door. The day I came, I refused to tell father my name so he called me Kyru. So thats who I've been since then; Kyru. Benjamin was just a name that reminded me of things that I hated to remember, so in return I hated that name. Hating my name was something that most people would think stupid... but I hated it whenever someone called me that.

Besides-- why in the world is she asking me about this stuff?

"Just a sec," said Ember. She ran to her sister's hiding place, grabbed her by the arm and dragged her over to Alexander. Amber snarled and spat angrily, struggling to get free.

"Don't be rude, Amber!" said Ember. Amber just growled, then was silent.

"I am Ember," said Emner, "and this is my twin sister Amber. I dragged her over here so you could see how different we are, and won't get us mixed up! People are always getting us mixed up, it's very annoying and causes lots of problems for us, tee hee!"

"You mean you've actually noticed that?!" said Amber in suprise. "I thought I was the only one who noticed!"

Ember nipped her sharply, making her flinch. Then she licked her cheek, a cat kiss, making her flinch again, and scowl. "Tee hee, I know you  think I'm stupid, sis, but I'm just sweeter natured than you, and I know that drives you crazy! Anyway, I see you've met Jaren the jerk already! Kicking poor Cherry in the face, and I didn't even have a chance to hug her to make her feel better!"

"Ember, hugging Cherry wouldn't have made her feel better," growled Amber, "it would have made her feel worse."

"Tee hee, you don't know that Amber!"

"Yes I do. Anyway... Yes... Poor Cherry..." Amber hung her head. "And poor father... I want to see father so badly... I think I'll sneak into his room right now. Did you two want to come?"

"Amber, we're not allowed to see him right now!" said Ember. "Besides, he'll be better before you know it, you can see him them!"

But Amber had already pulled free of her grasp and started sneaking off to the Ring Master's room.

"I would not do that if I were you. In my opinion it is a fool's mistake. Ms. Amber, from what I know he is deathly ill and he would not wish for you to get ill from him, now would he? Just think, what if he is sleeping and you wake him up? Wouldn't staying away from him just be better then risking contamination and bothering him?" I said to her, looking blankly at her as if to say 'seriously?' which was actually not at all I was thinking of in that moment, or what I meant at all.

"ok kyru... Can I please Talk to you? I'm worried... Jaren is more upset then he usauly is." I didn't here anything... I checked my watch. Ive been standing here for 10 minutes! Then I snapped. "alright you know what! Sit in your room! Don't talk to me! I'm only worried about you but you probably don't care about me anyways! It's not like kyru to care about a person that was kicked in the face and had her nose broken! I should have known not to be friends with someone like you!" I was a flaming red color and angry. I stormed off upset that the friend I made didn't care anymore. Sometimes I wondered if I was better off alone...

I opened the door a small crack and watched her stomp off, I did not know that she just got kicked in the face, so why was she so mad at me? I made a small whimper before peeking my head out fully, knowing that she would not notice at all.

"I did not know..." I muttered before closing my door; not fully, just to ware there was a crack left of space, in which I did not notice or intend for it to be there. I laid on my bed, and started to mess with my ears. Lets just hope that she's not going to keep a grudge...

I looked at my watch and confirmed my suspicions. "gaurd duty is finished." I walked off trading places with tony the other guard. I had been hearing recent gossip about some new guy in the main hall. If he was new I didn't trust him. It was my job to keep everyone safe and I didn't know if this guy was safe enough. So I made my way into the main hall and there was some boy probably the same age I am standing with ember and amber. I was one of the few people who could tell them apart or even know that there were two. By now ember probably talked his ears off or hugged him into a coma. I waved "hi" to amber. Then I circled the group getting a good look of the stranger. Most people would find this wierd but everyone knew I was always cautious and liked to investigate things. Deciding it was time to figure out who this was I stepped in next to amber and began. "hello my name is Psychari. I am the chief gaurd here at the circus. It is my job to know every person and make sure they pose no threat to the family."

"My name is Alexander, but you can call me Alex. I am sure that I pose no threat to you; does it look like I mean any harm? I had came purely on account of my step mother telling me to do-so, and I am unarmed. You could check my pockets yourself, if you do not believed me. I think that I was raised better then to threaten other people for no reason." I said plainly to the security guard, my tail shifted a bit as if to show that she was the dominate one, and I had no want or need to attempt some sort of awful stunt.

"he is obident and honest." was the first thing that came to mind. "he would make a good gaurd, we would have to train him first though..." I continued to ponder. Then something on my waist buzzed. "psycho you finished putting up those posters yet?" Sam my SIC said. "I'm the boss. Shouldn't you be doing that?" I replied. "well wouldn't that make you a lazy person?" he said right back. It was often we had these mini fights, but they were playful and never too serious. "fine, I will put the rest up. But YOU are responsible for finding any new recruits." I put my walkie-talkie away. "just stay out of the east halls and don't go out at night and we won't have a problem." I said to the kid,giving a small smile. "if your interested, and you don't have too. But if your are, we are trying to get more gaurds and some new recruits. Papers should be up somewhere." I walked off sticking a flyer to the wall. I needed to talk with Jaren about what happened to cherry. He was always picking on the smaller ones. He didn't mess with her though, he new better.

Nothing to care for; those guards. Security here was horrible. They think that someone wouldn't lie with a strait face on? Of course I wasn't; but she seemed too sure that I couldn't put these claws to use if I had need. If there was any description I would give that; it would be 'Laziness'.

"Now, if you excuse me, I'd like to question Jennard a bit more about why I am here." I said, mockery was plain, since I already didn't really like the guy. Make fun of him behind his back; that I did. There were somethings that should be made fun of plainly; just like him.

I was walking down the the hall when I heard about the boy wanting to see jaren. Even though he's a big butt. "oh if you want to see jaren follow me." I said flicking my tail towards the direction I was going. I went down to hallway B. "by the way you'll be staying in this room." I said pointing to the first door on the left. "I will be ALL the way down there." this time I was pointing to the very end of the dimly lit hallway. "This is his room." you could easily tell it was his because it had things like "jerk face" or "worse then the grinch" written on it. I took my tail and knocked on the door. Jarens scratchy voice came in. "what do you want!" it was more of a growl... "2 things. 1-this alxeander boy wants to talk to you. 2- I want to talk to you." Sounds could be heard from inside. "I already talked to that child now go away!" he yelled. "you have 3 seconds to open this door. 1,2,...3!" I took my army boots and kicked the door off it's hinges. He just stared at me in disbelief. "you needed a new door to scribble on anyway." I turned to the kid. "I have to go check attendance, you have about 20 minutes before I should be back. I hope that's enough time." I was about to walk to down the hall when I felt the familiar buzz on my hip. "hey where's johnny?" my S.I.C. Asked. "at lunch, time to take attendance, and have one of the gaurds bring cherry. I want some info from the incident." I gave a angry glare towards jaren. "when I get back we are going to have a very SPECIAL talk." I kicked his door towards him. "buy a new one, I KNOW you have the money." I down the hall to to the cafe. "time to take attendance."

She was most likely considering me to be something I am not, as all people do. I looked at the door then asked "You don't get after them for writing on your door..? If you don't then they'll just do it even more. Anyways, I apologize about not stopping her when she was about to break the door down." A gesture was made, one that he probably wouldn't understand was used as respect; he was someone of a lower class obviously, to act like he was over everyone else was a good giveaway about that fact.

"I wanted to question you further... please pardon my curiosity; I hope that you would understand why... but... I heard someone talking about you ordering cages. Is there any reason why?"

Jaren snarled at the aggravating young man. He didn't understand why this stupid child kept popping up to ask him pointless questions. "Psychari hates me because of how I treated her when she got here. But once my father realized she was "special" he gave her a head spot in sercurity. Though everyone still thinks she's the best there is, all because she stopped a few fires and rescued a few people. I still dislike the fact she won't let any of my friends in. She thinks they are dangerous. The door will just be replaced, if she didn't kick it down some fire breather would burn it down." Jaren studied the strange boy, he didn't seem to have any emotion on his face... He was perfect. "Now, if you keep requesting to talk to me about random, useless information, I'm just going to kick you out on the street and your stepmother can deal with it. BUT if you can help me with my psychari problem then maybe she won't have to deal with the aggravation of a freak in her house." Jaren finished and just sat back in his chair with a slick smile on his face. "I'm waiting..."

"Are you basically asking me to harm her in any sort of way? Because I am afraid that I could not." I said surprised that he was attempting and obviously failing to black mail me. I could care less whether if he kicked me out or not, I'd just give me an excuse to go home. "Besides, I think that you might need her in the near future. Though if you wanted to, you could possibly bring in your friends as people who bought tickets to this traveling circus, don't you think? She cannot keep out any customers unless you say to keep them out, that's what I know about Circus security."

There was an unsettling air about this situation, and I was more then certain that he may attempt to black mail me yet again unless my answer was good enough to him.

"Then you really are useless... Leave. Get out of my room!" Jaren waved him off. He had other things to think about. He sat with his arms crossed, pouting with a evil look on his face. It was his thinking position. Just then, his spy came in. "What do you want!" Jaren snapped. "Uh... Psychari is talking to that redhead girl. And word is she's collecting info to use against you." The strange hairy man said nervously seeing that the boy was there. "Hmm... Start some type of commotion near the south halls. I will talk to cherry." He smiled deviously. The man left and jaren sat up. "Now if you keep coming to my room I will have to call security on you. Now move I have business to attend to." Jaren moved quickly, he needed to "talk" to the redhead before the security gaurd did. Because if psychari found out the full details, she wouldn't stop at just busting down his door...

PLOT;
