A World of Misfit's. . .

Shadow walked across tables and looked him in the eye.
"Now look here Dearie~! I have magical powers and can curse you~!"

"Dearie, do you think that your powers are better then mine?"

"Why, I do believe so Dearie~!"

"Let's test it!" Rumplestilskin pulled out a pistol and shot her, everyone screamed as she lay flat on a table.

"Rumplestilskin are you Crazy?" The Circus Master looked at him.

"A Wee bit dearie~! Not as crazy as her though~!" He pointed to Shadow, who rolled over and started laughing.

"You. . .Guys. . .fell for it!!!!" She laughed so hard she snorted lightly.

The Circus Master clapped her hands together, hard. Causing the room to fall silent.
ShadowStep slowly looked at her, expecting to see an irritated scowl but was met with an amused smile.

"Alright. Alright." she laughed.
"I think that's enough dinner theater, da?"

Shadowstep smiled,sighing "Ooohhh fine. . .If we must~. . ."

Rumplestilskin even smirked, "Oh, but Dearie. . .it was getting so fun~!"

"Yes yes but we all have to eat, don't we Shadow?"

"Ummm. . .well some don't but otherwise yes. . .yes we do~!" She said looking at The Circus Master Upside-down.

"Oh and Shadow?"

"Yes Milady?"

"Get off of the ceiling, Da~?"

"Awww. . . .OK~!" She backflipped off the ceiling and back into her spot.

"Shadow Dearie?"

"Yes Rumplestilskin?"

"Let's do that again sometime~!"

"Sure Thing~!" She laughed and went back to eating.

The Circus Master laughed softly snd shook her head,
returning to her table with The Commander.

Ice sighed happily.
"Shadow, what are we going to do with you?"

"Umm well let's see. . .," she started acting like a girl, "You can love me, feed me, make sure i have enough suger in this thing to keep me crazy, you cannnnnn-"

"Shadow!"

"Yes, Ice?"

"It was a rhetorical question!" she said laughing.

"Are you sure you still don't want to love meeee?"

"Shadow we love you lots!"

Shadow squished her cheeks together, "You dooooooo~?"

They all burst out laughing, Dawn smiled though.

"When is the next performance?" Dawn asked suddenly completely off topic.

Shadow regaine dher normal composure, "From what I believe. . .in 2 days. . .after today that is. . ."

Ice looked at her, "Just 2 days? No wonder they are pushing us so hard. . ."

Kira shrugged, "Shadow is doing good at The fright show performance she's in. . .she also has to cram her alchemy in somewhere to practice. . ."

She rolled her eyes, "I'll probably just have to practice at night and do The Fright Show during the day, then sleep then night before. . ."

"Isn't that a bit much?" Dawn added in.

"Yea, but I'll be fine. What are you performing in Dawn?"

"I'm uh..doing a bit of water/element controlling. Maybe singing a little, I need to talk to the Master about it all. If I did singing i could be apart of any of the shows including the fright..but I'm not sure that's..good for the circus." Dawn pulled a piece of her hair our from her hood and began to twirl it in her fingers.

Shadow nodded, using her fork to twirl the pasta. "That's neat! Let me know when you have it planned out." She stuck the fork in her mouth, eating the pasta.

Dawn nodded and went back to munching on her Cheese and Crackers. Distracted for a moment she looked up and realized that Shadow had somehow manged to get a noodle on her nose.

"How do you manage that Shadow?" Ice asked.

"I'm Italian! Anything is possible~!"

Dawn smiled and Ice rolled her eyes.

"I don't think you should eat that noodle now.."Dawn said smiling, "It might taste funny."

Shadow laugh, "I don't know it could add extra flavor."

The group laughed more Dawn smiling bigger.

After dinner, they all sat around in their room chatting, laughing. Just Being goofy. Around Mid-night, Shadow had left to go practice her Alchemy. Then the next day, they all met up for breakfast before it was time for practice for their performance's.

Shadow was the first to the table, she grabbed her bacon and started eating while waiting for the others.

Dawn came in next and grabbed a bland bit of oatmeal.

"Hey Shadow! How was alchemy practice?"

"Oh. . .you knwo so so. . ." Shadow said smileing.

"What's up with the hood?" Dawn asked.

"That's just something I found!" Shadow said, trying nt to laugh.

Ice came up form behind and yanked the hood down, she started laughing uncontrolably.

"What? I messed up!" The Mint-Green haired Shadow-Walker's hair was poofed up almost like an afro (or Einstein's hair).

"My goodness, Shadow what did you do!" Dawn asked a big smile on her face.

"I. . .mixed. . .two chemicals. . .then POOF~! I was going to shower after breakfast. . ."

Dawn smiled shaking her head behind her back she moved her hand and pulled some of the water vapor out of the air to smooth out her hair.

Ice looked at Dawn and narrowed her eyes.

"Did you?" Shadow asked.

Dawn smiled, "How could I?"

Shadow shrugged, "I guess the effects finally wore off then!"

Ice backed up, "Effects? Like that?"

Shadow looked at her, "What do you mean?" Ice pointed to her hair, which was now a bright sky blue.

"Umm, shadow? Why is your hair blue?" Vate asked as he walked by.

"Long story. . .alchemy. . .POOF~!" They all started laughing again. After breakfast, Shadow was pretty sure that her hair wouldn't do anything else since the Mint-green came back.

Dawn smiled, "What are we going to do now? I was knid of wanting to get out of camp. Visit the forest."

((May I join in?))

"That's a good idea," Ice replied. "My wings could use a cleansing ceremony."
She looked around the table. "Who else is in?"

((Sure, we have put you in here like 10 times anyway X3))

Shadow poked her head back in, "I would but i have to practice and sleeeeeppppp. . ."

Dawn looked at her, "You know you could sleep in a tree."

Shadow leaned her head back, "Fine. . .I am in~!"

Dawn finished up her oatmeal listening to the group chat. Without meaning to she'd secluded from the group again.

"Ready?" asked Ice. She stood up and stretched, extending her wings fully.

"Maybe I could try to fly," she murmured, looking at her purple wings.

"I could lend a bit of wind, nothing too much it's not something I have great control over but enough to help you up a bit." Dawn offered, she didn't think Ice would except any help from her.


Dawn stood up already dressed to hunt all she need was her bow and arrows.

Shadow stood up, "Yeup~!"

"Let's go then!" They all started to walk off.

They went to their tent to grab any gear they'd need.

"Do we need to ask the Master first? Or is our group big enough to just go?" Dawn asked looking mostly at Shadow, knowing Ice wouldn't want to answer anyways.

"She is usually ok with people going out no matter how big or small the group is as long as you let one of the guards knwo what your doing and or were your going."

Shadow pulled on her Herb gathering bag, and put her bow and arrow on her back.

"So, we should be good?"

"Yea, just let me go tell a vuard real quick." She ran up to the gate and spoke with one of the guards, a few moments later, she came back.

"He said it's fine we just have to be back before mid-night."

The group moved towards the woods Dawn missed living here more than anything. She looked at everyone and it seemed to her she wasn't the only one who loved it out here.

They moved on it wasn't long before a deer trail was spotted, Dawn could feel it's presents in the forest, she knew they'd find it soon.
