stand.
As I headed at Alec’s caravan I bumped into practically every performer. All of them said their “hello’s” and then passed by. All of them seemed upbeat – they always did in the morning. They all still had the post-performance buzz from the night before.
I had gotten into a habit of just walking into the caravan without knocking. When I walked in Choppy was the only one that greeted me. Alec must still be in bed. I walked to his bedroom door and knocked.
“I’ll be out in a minute” Alec shouted.
“Take your time. I don’t have to go for another hour” I shouted back. I sat down on the sofa. I patted the sofa besides me and Choppy jumped up. I told him to get his ball but he just scrambled to the bedroom door. I sighed. His ball must be in there. I told him to come back and just sit until the door opens.
About ten minutes later, Alec came through the door.
“Morning Lamia” he said walking to my side.
“Good morning Alec” I replied with a big smile on my face.
“I wasn’t expecting you today, I thought you said you were spending the day with Amelia” he commented.
“I am, I just thought I’d pop by beforehand. Don’t forget I come to see the show tonight.”
“Oh, I don’t forget such an important thing” he laughed, “I’ll remember to pick you out for the volunteering”
“Great” I laughed.

CHAPTER 3
My day with Amelia was great. We went out on Amelia’s bike. Her brother came with us. We spent the day at the closest park and hung about. It was only when I was with Amelia that I could do this. The orphanage never allowed us to hang about at a park, if we get caught doing it we would be grounded for at least two months.
The most of the conversation was about the Cirque De Soleil. Neither of them knew what to expect so they were asking me the questions of what they would expect. I wouldn’t let myself give anything away so for every question I said, “You’ll have to wait and see”
Their parents cooked me dinner. Sausage and Mash. Proper sausage and mash, not orphanage rubbish. During the meal the conversation turned to the Cirque De Soleil, again.
“Have you ever seen a Cirque De Soleil before Lamia?” Amelia’s mother asked as we all took our last bites.
“I’ve never seen them perform but I’ve been spending quite a bit of time with the conductor, Alec Ferew. And I’ve been watching some of them practice.” I replied.
“You’ve been hanging around with the Circus?” asked Amelia’s brother.
I nodded. “Yeh”
“How did you meet them?” asked Amelia’s brother.
“Then conductor’s dog, Choppy knocked me over on my way home from school, and as I hit the floor I was knocked out. Alec took me to the Cirque and put me on his sofa till I became conscious. He showed me around, introduced me to a few people and then took me home. He said I could visit anytime so I’ve been going quite a lot.” I explained.
We had a few hours to waste so we sat down and watched a film. We watched it every time I came over. Johnny English was one of the best films I had ever seen. That was one of the disadvantages of living in an orphanage, you can’t have a TV, or buy new DVD’s.
It was only a five minute drive to the Cirque. I had given the tickets – even mine – to Amelia’s dad. He was in charge of that sort of stuff. The car park was packed with cars. I couldn’t believe so many people come every night for two months, it seemed incredible. I didn’t realise there was that many people in this town. Apparently so. We ended up having to park on the other side of the field they were using as a car park. We trod through the muddy field of cars to the big, yellow and red circus tent. The way was slippery so Amelia and I ended it holding on to each other, keeping each other up. I slipped and Amelia held me up and then Amelia slipped a few steps later and I held her up. Amelia’s brother slipped and landed flat on his bottom. Luckily for him the area his bottom landed was one of the only bits with grass on it, not a pile of mud. You could only just tell he’d fell over when looking at him.
Alec was stood taking in the tickets with Bradley helping him. Bradley injured himself in the practise the day before so he couldn’t perform.
When we reached the entrance there was a queue. I could see a wide smile on both Alec and Bradley’s faces. Amelia’s dad got the tickets out as we reached the end of the queue. It took only a few moments to get to the front. I handed my ticket to Alec who smiled like the Cheshire cat. He ripped the corner of the top of the ticket.
“Enjoy the show” he said to me handing me back my ticket.
“Thank you” I replied quietly heading forward.
Amelia’s family soon joined me on the other side. Liam and Gareth were some of the ones that were showing the audience to the seats.
“May I show you to your seat Lamia?” asked Gareth.
I nodded.
“This way”
He showed us to our seats on the front row on the best stand. All of the performers will be facing in this direction. I sat down as Gareth asked, “Is there anything else I can do for you?”
“No, I think we’re alright, thanks Gareth.” I replied to him, smiling my sweetest smile.
“Enjoy the show Lamia” he said as he headed off.
I could see the rest of the family looking about. They looked up at the stand behind us and at the other three quarter full stands.
“How did you manage to get these seats?” asked Amelia’s father as Liam showed a family to the seats to our right.
“It’s about who you know not what you know” I stated. Which was true. Alex had reserved these same seats for the last few shows ready for me. For the shows I didn’t go to he just picked a random family of five to upgrade.
We didn’t have to wait long for the start of the show. As the last few stragglers came in the light started to dim. All of the performers that had been showing people to their seats had vanished. Bradley came and sat next to me. He didn’t say a word, he just sat and continued watched around carefully.
Everybody was seated. Lights were out. The show was about to start.
The lights stayed out longer than anybody had expected. People were starting to whisper when one light shone down into the centre of the stage. Stood in this one spot light was no other than Alec.
He kept his head down and spoke in a mysterious and quite scary voice, “Ladies, Gentlemen, boys and girls, be prepared to be entertained. Prepare for the night of your life, because this is... Cirque De Soleil”
All light shot up on his last words. Music started. There was a flurry of activity. The Gresley Twins were flipping continuously either side of Alec. The Bendy Twenty – well bendy nineteen – were cart wheeling around the edge of the performing ring. The Switch Boards were swinging from swing to swing, flipping and twirling in mid air. And then The Dropping Dancers were twirling, being held up by the fabric alone.
The music came to a peak and then stopped. As it did, the performers stopped and posed.
The audience started to clap and cheer.
All performers cleared the space as the clapping started to slow. Alec stood his ground.
“We are proud to welcome you to the show. Now, may I have a three volunteers from the audience please?”
Alec looked in my direction. Now I realised why Bradley had came and sat next to me. Bradley pushed me up. He pushed me far enough forward for everybody to look my way and then sat back down.
“There’s one. Another two please”
Eventually two more brave people came up. We gathered with Alec.
“Right, volunteer number one, what’s your name” he asked.
“Lamia Button”
“Volunteer number two...”
“Brett Woodaker”
“Volunteer number three...”
“Jared Mallod”
“Right, Lamia, Brett and Jared, you are going to be my assistances for the show. Have any of you ever seen teleportation?”
All of us shook our heads.
“Well you are going to be three of the few that experienced it”
The Gresley Twins brought on two boxes, that would just be big enough for the three of us to fit in. They placed one on the right of us and the other on the left. Gareth was in charge of the one on the right, and then Liam was in charge of the one of the left.
Alec got, out of his pocket, three fabric blindfolds. He handed one to each of us. He told Jared to put on his first. He led Jared – who was the biggest of the three of us – to the box on the left. When Jared was in, Alec told Brett to follow suit. When Brett was in, he told me to do the same. I just managed to fit in the box.
I could feel the other two. We were so packed in that it was impossible not to be able to feel them. All I could see was the inside of the blindfold. I couldn’t even tell when they shut the door. I could hear a click so I presumed that was the door closing. I could just hear Alec.
“Transportation has always been seen as an impossibility, but not here. I will now transport these three from one box to the other, one by one”
My head started to spin. I was going light headed. All sense of feeling had gone, especially under my feet. And then ground was under my feet and space around me. I heard the click of the door. I heard a gasp and then a eruption of cheering. I was defiantly the only one in my box.
“Take off your blindfold Lamia” said Alec. When I pulled it off I saw I was the only one in the box. I thought there was too much space for all three of us.
“Will you step out please Lamia”
I stepped out and looked to the right where I expected to see the other box just to see a stand of people. I looked in the other direction and saw the box there. I gasped. Gareth shut the door to the box and lead me to Alec’s side.
After a few seconds, they opened the doors to both boxes. Brett was now alone in the box I had exited. Alec instructed Brett do the same I had. He looked about shocked. And then finally Jared crossed the gap as well. All three of us where shocked and stunned by what had just happened. It was incredible. He had made us transport from one spot to another. Incredible. He defiantly didn’t mention that he could do that.
Everybody in the audience started cheering and clapping. Alec shook hands with the two others and then with me. We were lead back to our seats. The Gresley Twins lead the others while Alec lead me to mine.
“Let me know afterwards if you feel slightly queasy or ill” he said as I sat down.
I nodded.
Alec went back to the centre as The Gresley Twins just disappeared.
“Now, it is my great pleasure to introduce to you... The Bendy Twenty”
