((that’s ok just think it’s kind of like the Jane Austen books, Charles Dickens and some of those authors. Just we can make the Technology more like ours, or even advanced then ours))

“If I knew her family I would look for them and have them renew the spell but she removed a memory of her and the family for the spell.” Leaning over he sighed onto Ratchet’s chest before kissing it. “But let us talk of happier things than this. Like a new cat coming to the Circus, if I did not know better I would say they breed like rats.”

“would you mind teaching me the stuff you learned?” she looked at him sheepishly hoping he did not think her stupid or thinking that she did not need to learn because she was a girl. She had once attended the classed one of the performers had held till the old Tom found out and had her punished for trying to learn. He had told her that no female of his kind needed to learn about things that only men needed to know. “I have a few books I traded off some kids my age, they were happy to trade it for a sneak into the show.”

((Okay that makes sense. And poor Tempa. That makes me sad…))

Ratchet sighed kissing him gently, "Like rats indeed though this ones a bit off nit a farm or alley cat like they usually are. His clothes are in to good of a condition. Unless he stole them…but he doesn't look it…"

Rowan smiled lightly nodding a bit, "Yeah sure! I like teaching!" He said happily tail twiching.

((oh do not worry…. All Ratchet has to do is find a vampire that will turn him and then he will never change… and the two natures spend so much time warring on the genetic level that he does not have the sunlight problem…. And no sparkles either.))

“Well let’s hope his family comes and clams him, or that they never think to blame us for his disappearance. Because I don’t want the same problem like that last one.” the last one had dressed like a street kid and they had taken him in quickly but then latter Lady Julian had to do some fast talking to get them out of trouble with the bobby’s. That had been over a year ago, so for Lady Julian to be thinking of taking on a new one it meant that she was ready to risk it again, “think they will come soon?”

“just so you know, the new Tom, you met him, Sam, hates to have us girls leaning so any teaching you do has to be done in secret. And I don’t think any of the others are going to want to learn so you don’t have to worry about teaching us and trying to keep it quiet.” Reaching out she caught his tail gently and started petting it. “Sam and I don’t get along that often but I know he is going to try to pick me as his main mate when I go into heat the first time.” She looked a bit worried. Sam was a few years older than here but most humans would not have noticed that.

((Yay! Oh! I should bring one of my vamps in! A girl actually I kinda miss being girls. I dint have many Girly characters…but I like her so Ill add her in. It's Nyx Macarba if you want to stalk her in my OC. She's got the long black hair and giant cross sword. By the way she's kinda a vamp lycan hybrid.))

Ratchet sighed thinking. "Who his parents? Yeah probally…actually I should go find the two of them…Phee's probally corrupting him…"

Rowan frowned looking at her, "But why? That doesn't make any sense…why wouldn't he chose someone he liked?"Rowan frowned. Cat were weird he decided watching him.

(( ummmm he would not allow her to bite him and turn him… he is completely gay and would not like her touching him. but if you wanted to bring her in for another character latter sure… just try to think of what her job would be in the Circus.))

“Her corrupting him? she is way to innocence to do that. Even if she is a bit crazy sometimes she still is not yet to that stage. Now that Tom, he is a completely different matter.” Tempa sighed and wrapped his arms around Ratchet. “if we wait long enough I think it might be fun to show him what he is doing to others by taking him.” Tempa’s eyes seem to grow dark as he thought of what he had found the Tom doing to one of the younger males last time they were breaking down the circus. “And Phoebe probably already has his whole life story from him.”

“Because he think like the last Tom thought. That we are more cat then human and should keep with their laws on how things are set up. I am of the opinion that we are more human then cat and should fallow the human customs.” She shivered slightly pulling on his tail. Hers she had pinned under her so that she could not give away her feelings. “That is the main reason he wants me as his main mate, so that he can break all the others that think the same way I am thinking. So that he can control what they hear from me.”

((XD Aww I have a male too plenty atcually but yes I have a perfect job for her…she likes fire…))

Ratchet sighed, "Rather just bash his head in he pisses me off that much…but if you want to take the Tom I have know problem with it. Thoug you know what would be funny…if new cat stays…"Ratchet smirked, "Sam trying to break him in…something tells me that kid is hiding something…"

Rowan hissed at that angrily, "Thats so stupid! Just because he's this Tom thing doesn't mean he can be a jerkoff!" He growled his tail raised in anger. He wasn't easy to get angry but once he did he was hard to calm down.

“What better way to get him to leave others alone without having to leave the Tents because of murder?” a smile filled Tempa’s face. “oh yes he has to be, he is going to make that Tom wish he never acted the way he did but he still could avoid the Tom as much as Phoebe does. Now she has learned how to live like a cat that is not going to be ruled. I would love to see when he tries to take her. Have you noticed that she has started sulking in the hold and avoiding the rest of the cats when she can?”

Reaching out and gently petting his ears and scratching his neck Phoebe sighed. “Don’t worry he will never have me as his mate. I will pick my mate when I am ready, and no sooner will anyone have me.” Petting him she tried to calm him back down, her voice soothing. “if he ever bugs you if you join us and we are in the air, just go to the holds. He will never go past the second deck from the top. He dislikes some of the people in the lower floors.”

"Yes I have it worries me a bit…" He said softly looking at Tempa, "Perhaps new cat will be good for her. She could use a friend…" Ratchet thought.

Rowan calmed a bit looking at her, "Like Shaen?" He asked innocently tilting his head. He was calmed down now.

“If Shaen was not down there I don’t think they would leave her along. It is sad that he never did get the last Tom to accept him. Shaen would have done that Tom good; he was way too much of a closet case.” Tempa smiled then stood up. “Time for the clowns to put me in a box again. Don’t forget to talk to Lady about our own night show.” Slowly he got up and his clothes appeared on him. they clung to him like a second skin, showing off everything just perfectly to be teasing but not too much to be vulgar.

“Yah like Shaen….” Then it dawned on her why he would have been asking those questions if he knew about Shaen. “Oh don’t tell me he went chasing your tail the moment he saw you? Don’t worry about him, if you really want to know about sleeping with a man he would be the best one for it, but if not he will leave you alone once you tell him you’re not interested.” In fact she had relied on Shaen to keep the other cats out of where she was. He in turn had offered to teach her the ways of a man and a maid when she became interested. She thought that trade was good but knew if she found someone he would not feel hurt. Though Shaen had offered she knew that he would much prefer males to females. “And if he teaches you and you don’t want it any more he will leave you alone. You don’t have to worry one way or another with him. he kisses and never tells.”

Ratchet chuckled, "I will I have to help Nyx and Zarias present their own idea for a show." Ratchet said strechig Ashe found his own clothes shrugging into them.

Rowan nodded smiling. "Okay that's good to know. I liked him he seemed nice…" He smiled lightly looking at Pheobe.

Doing a few back flips then front flips to loosen up Tempa smiled. “so what do those two have up their sleeves?”

“Oh yah he is, just the other cats won’t go down there because Tom told them not to. They don’t think for themselves but I am happy that they don’t, or there would go my hiding place and where I usually sleep.” Suddenly she blushed which could be seen through her very fine fur. “Not in his room, down in the hold.”

"Pryosomething or other. Pretty much the two if them doing tricks in fire stage fighting and Nyx showing her true form and Zarias his fangs." Ratchet said watching Tempa amused.

Rowan blinked nodding,"Okay…you don't mind if I bug you do you?" He asked softly looking at her. His tail flicking warily.

“And they are thinking of getting this by Lady how?” Tempa looked over at Ratchet then shook his head. “No never mind, your silver tongue would get any one anything but you.” Doing one last stretch Tempa smiled. “Now to appear in the box and then have my fun.” A box that matched the one they were using in the ring slid out from under the bed. “bye love.” Climbing into it moved back to under the bed as he burst from its twin in the main ring. The people all around burst out in applause as it seemed that his appearance was not planned for by the clowns. Then they spent the next few minutes trying to get him back into the box which did not seem to happen as he kept slipping out of their grip at the last moment and bouncing into the air, or rolling away.

“Don’t mind bugging me?” Phoebe looked at him confused. “You’re not bugging me.” Then she thought of what they had been talking about. “Oh you mean in the hold?”

Ratchet chuckled as he set out. Easily findig Nyx and Zarias. ((Do you know what they look like cuz I can't link pics till I get home in a week.))

Rowan nodded with a frown, "Yeah…"

As the clowns finely seemed to get him in the box Tempa sighed dramatically and picked out one lady in the audience to look pleading at. It was not like he would want her to rescue him, as a matter of fact he would rather have her lover come to his rescue but it was part of the performance. He had to play to the women of the place.

“You can sleep down there with me if you really want. It’s not privet or nothing, not like we get any as it. But it is better than the room everyone else sleeps in. it has fleas.” Phoebe said her ear twitching.

Nxy smirked happily bounding over to Ratchet, "Sooo will ya do it please?" She asked.

"Of course I have to ask Lady something anyway…" Ratchet said nodding.

Zarias smiled lightly, "Thanks I owe you one…"

"Yep just come by our tent some time and you can pay me back all you want…" Ratchet smirked lookjng at the young vamp. Zarias scowled but said nothig as Nyx giggled enjoying it.

Rowan smiled lightly, "Really? Okay!" He smiled happily tail twiching.

A chime sounded some where near by every one to announce that the evening meal was ready and the brake would be given. rolling out of the side of the box Tempa sighed. it had been a good performance, every one had enjoyed what they did.

hearing the chime Phoebe smiled and hurried to the ladder that lead to the bottom deck where the latter to the ground was. "come on silly. that was the dinner bell if you dont get moving fast they will not keep any for you." she disappeared over the side before he could say anything to her.

"Yes food!" Nyx cheered happily. Zarias rolled his eyes at her scowling.

"Can Tempa please send her to Ice Land or Mars please?" Zarias beggged half joking. Ratchet just smirked darkly leadig the two kids to the dinner area.

"W-wait Phee I don't know where to go!" He paniced as he climbed put looking around. Then headed after ewhere he though Phee had gone hoping he was right.

Tempa sighed and leaned back into the carpet of the room. He really did not have to eat but he should eat something so that the others did not think him to odd.

Poking her head back up over the edge of the lower viewing platform Phoebe smiled. “it is not hard to find it you just have to follow your nose.” She slipped back down the stairs and hurried on down all the way.

Nyx, Zarias and Ratchet happily went to go eat planning a strategy to make Lady let the have the shows.

Rowan whimpered trying as he followed after her tail twichig warrily.

Getting up Tempa walked through a portal and walked into the dinning tent through the main flap. Looking over the food choices he sighed and walked to where Ratchet was. “Looks like she is trying to kill us again.” He was talking about the cook who never really learned how to cook.

“Oh come on don’t tell me your afraid of heights.” Phoebe yelled up at him as she went down the ladder. “You’re going to have to learn to love them if you think your joining us. This is all we ever use to get down to the ground unless there is a lake nearby.”

Ratchet laughed agreeing opening his arms for Tempa, "Poor baby…"

"Zarias now!" Nyx said pushing her compaion a bit.

Zarias hissed at her, "Have Ratchet hug him for you!" Nyx growled unhappy crissng her arms with a huff.

Ratchet chuckled amused by the kids though giving a warnig look. If the kept it up he would govto town on them.

"Im not scared of heights!" He called racing after her.

“What is this about Zarias?” tempa looked over at Ratchet with a raised eyebrow. “what am I missing here?” he seemed to fall into Ratchet’s arms even though it was no weight on Ratchet until he was fully settled in his arms.

“You sure seem like you are.” Phoebe reached the bottom of the ladder and waited for him at the ground. “you know you can speed it up a bit, if you don’t all the good food will be gone.”

Zarias sighed lookig at Tempa. Ratchet smiled holdng his lover close. "Shecwanst me to give you a hug for her. 'Cause for what ever reason she wants a hug and you won't give her one." Zarias huffed.

Rowan frowned pickig up the speed, "Sorry I'm not a speedy person. "

“I usually don’t give any one hugs but my love. So she should not feel so left out.” Tempa said as he looked straight at Shecwanst. “I am not that much of a touchy feely person, except to my lovers.” He turned his head and planted a good strong kiss on Ratchet’s lips. “hello lover.”

“you will have to become one if you think to survive in this place.” Phoebe reached up and touched the tip of his tail as he came down far enough.
