《Tiger Eyes (Phillip Carlyle)》Chapter 11 - Fire
Advertisement
We finish our performance. This time it was good. No throwing of things. Clapping and cheering. Phillip was interacting with kids while I get changed into normal things. Ellie was beside me with her hand in mine. I give her a squeeze before I let go of it. I hear a commotion in the ring.
"Elllie, stay here okay" she gives me a nod.
As I thought, Phillip and the usual thugs are arguing.
"Is there a problem?" I ask
"Yeah there is, we want you to get out of 'ere ya freak" one of them spits
Trying not to take it too personally I smile at them
"Well sometimes we don't get what we want sir so I'm gonna have to ask you to leave" that got me a punch in the face. As if on cue, my little friends start to fight them thing are going to get hairy.
I think one got thrown into the ropes of the trapeze, but what I didn't know was that they saw a little candle and set the place on fire. We rush out of the circus. Phillip realised that Anne was still in there when I realised Ellie wasn't to be found. Phillip distracted everyone by going into the building, as I went into the back. Just as the roof collapsed, I found Ellie. She had taken in a lot of smoke and was burn't everywhere. Not only that but she had a giant pole on her. With all my strength I lifted the pole up and pushed her aside where the pole didn't land. I started to cough some smoke up. I can't give up now. Gosh it's very hot in here. I saw Phillip and P.T. Well P.T carrying Phillip. So I wait til they had gone. Which luckily wasn't long. I made it out as Phillip was put on a stretcher.

"Ellie!" I hear Helen shout.
"Iris!" I hear Caroline shout.
I smile at them. I put Ellie on a stretcher. The doctors check her pulse. I didn't hear what happened. But saw them shaking their heads. I was in tears before I black out.

Ursus Ex Machina
Ozzy was a man of the wild. Raised in a remote village atop the world's mightiest mountain, he'd been taught to respect and revere the natural world. The realm he was born into had been there long before him, and it would remain there long after him. Sure, there was the occasional madman who threatened to destroy it, but such boasts were always empty. No one individual was actually capable of demolishing this beautiful blue-and-green ball Ozzy called home. No matter what terrible magics these villains wielded, they were incapable of causing permanent harm to the environment. Even if the planet was completely devastated, it would recover. Life would find a way to flourish, same as it always had. That was what Ozzy believed from the bottom of his heart, so he never once felt the need to save the world he loved. After all, it was never truly in danger. The world would be fine no matter what. The people were a wee bit endangered, but that was another story altogether. However, what would happen if Ozzy suddenly found himself devoid of his beloved wilds? What would the man do if the realm he knew - one of wonder, magic, and chaos - was replaced with a man-made environment of concrete, industry, and steam? Ozzy could never imagine such a thing happening, and yet that was his new reality. After losing a fateful confrontation with a mad wizard, he and his friends found themselves transported to a strange world so thoroughly alien that every waking moment feels like a fever dream. Separated and scattered to the four corners of this land, each of these adventurers will need to adapt, survive, and overcome if they hope to reunite. They would also need to do so quickly. The sooner they are able to find one another, the sooner they can figure out a way back home and have another crack at putting an end to the villain's plans. Whether such a thing was actually possible in a world with barely any magic in it was a valid concern, but Ozzy had more immediate things to worry about. For instance, why did the air smell like a perpetual forest fire? How did ships sail through the sky as if it were water? And most importantly, was the pavement he was hurtling towards at high speed much softer than it looked? Probably not, but a man could hope.
