"Did you get it, Xatho?" "No, Sir, I did not..." A slim figure paces in a room. "What am I to do with you... You know what happens when people fail me, don't you?" "S-Sir, please-!" The voice begged. "Silence. Nothing more from me." The slim figure nodded to three other creatures, all of them the size of Panthers, but the build of large velociraptors. Their long, almost branch-like arms reach out and snatch Xatho from his spot in front of the obvious leader and start dragging him away. "Please!" Xatho begged. But he wouldn't be heard. *Flashback* "Go on! Give them a show to remember!" It's all very fuzzy, all gray and hard to remember what's actually happing and what was my imagination. Like a static and old-fashion cartoon from the 90's. Something... Some.. One, was performing in front of a live audience, gaining cheer at every flip and turn. Right, right, it was an acrobat. I think her name was Stella or something... Once she let go of the bar to do a flip, she would be caught by the second performer on the other rope. Something went right! The other performer grabbed her hands and swung her to the other side. Applause erupted. *End flashback* Somewhere else~ "This isn't how it goes..."
