The Story Teller's Review

Meanwhile Drop was looking in a forest for his son, Krystal, but he had gotten lost, so he was planning simply walk until he found the end of the forest. As he was walking, he felt a pain in his stomach, he realized he hadn’t eaten in days, he began searching for some berries or mushrooms to eat, he was still searching half an hour later when he heard a crinkle below him. He looked towards his feet and saw a flyer advertising a circus. The flyer said in big, bold words “The Shoeman Inn is offering free lunch, dinner, breakfast and stay to ticket buyers!” The Flyer said the inn and circus were north of the Oases Forest, Drop wasn’t sure what forest he was in, or where north was. But his hunger was growing, so he started walking in a random direction.

Eventually he came to a clearing, he heard upbeat music playing, but more importantly, he smelled some sort of meat on a grill. His walk turned into a run, as he got hungrier. He slowed down as he came to a circus; he held up the flyer he found on the ground, this was it, this was the circus from the flyer! He walked up to the line, but everyone in line just ran away screaming, so he just shrugged and walked up to the booth and before he could ask for a ticket the man in the booth just yelled “I don’t serve monsters!” Drop began to protest “but I’m no-” But he was cut off by the slamming of the booth window. Drop began crying on the side of the road, everyone thought he was a monster, and he was starving. About five minutes later Drop stood up and decided that he was going to demand a ticket. He stood up, but before he could walk to the booth, he heard it, a whizzing. Before he knew what was going on, the air erupted in the loudest sound Drop had ever heard, a boom, followed by screams. He saw what he had only seen in books, an explosion. The next thing he saw was somehow the most alarming, he saw a figure running towards him, screaming “Run! Their coming!”
