Joey eventually decided to get off the road; He was seeing way too many animated up ahead, and he was in too much of a hurry to get to Durem. Once Joey got off the road, he turned onto this small road. Having no idea where it would lead, hopefully in the direction of any survivors, he followed it anyway. The road had thick forest on either side of it; Sometimes, from a certain angle, it looked creepy as Hell. But Joey knew that as long as the sun was out, and he could see where he was going, he knew he would be fine.
As Joey rode on, he began to see some sort of structures in the distance. It looked like some sort of amusement park, 'A freakin' circus?', he thought to himself, 'Gotta be freakin' kiddin' me.'
As quietly as his Motorcycle would allow, he rolled on. He saw a small group of people; Two girls, one guy. But they were a bit too far for him to call out to, so instead he decided to ride over to them.
"Hope they're goin' to Durem, too." Joey said to himself.

Rayna turned slightly, listening to their conversation. 'Maybe Donkey's never been to the circus? Eh, they don't allow wild animals,' she thought and chuckled. Jack suddenly jogged past her, and she wondered why for a second. 'He almost seemed spooked.' She barely noticed a close rumbling sound behind them and turned around, half expecting an animated pop corn machine. A dark elf on a motorcycle approached them, and she waved. When he was close enough she asked, "What brings you here?"

Nasrin glared at Jack's back as he jogged ahead. What might have caused this eagerness?She thought turning towards the sound of a whirring motor.
When Rayna asked her question, she decided to wait and see what the dark elf's reply would be. Either he is going our way or...he's a fool who doesn't listen to news

Why don't we just invite every one huh? Why we are at it lets go back and see if a guard wants to join us? Couldn't hurt to try. Jack kept his pace not wanting to find out if this was someone after him. Though looking back, the elf on the bike sure didn't look like he was part of the guards.
Better safe than sorry. I can't waste my time if he was and if not then he can be their donkey. Jack wasn't be careful of hi surroundings as he triped into the circus grounds.

Joey stopped his bike as people wandered up to him. He turned off the engine, took out a pack of menthol cigarettes and then lit one up. Joey left his sunglasses on, because the sun was almost directly in his eyes. Before saying anything to the small group, he took a small puff of his cigarette, then after exhaling he said, ". . . How you doin'?" then the girl asked him a question. Joey sat up straight, but keeping his shoulders relaxed. He said, "Goin' ta Durem. . . Got family there. . Where ya' headin'?"

"We're g-- we--" Rayna was going to answer, but coughed when she inhaled a puff of his cigarette. She took a step back and fanned with her hand. "We're going to Durem, too. Could ya' hold off on the smoking for a sec?" she tried again and struggled to hold in a cough. Tobacco or not, the smoke tasted awful and tickled her throat.

Nasrin had turned her head away from as to reduce the amount of smoke got into her throat. As she turned she noticed that Jack "the donkey" had managed to jog right into clearing that circled around the entire circus.
Something is wrong here! Where are the ticket booths? This is one of the entry points, right? So where-?, she turned her attention to the left at a crunching sound. "I suggest that since we're going the same way, we might as well stick together," Her eyes narrowed trying to see the thing that caused the crunch. "Oh I would ditch the motorcycle...the less you have. The less you'll stuff you'll have to worry about getting animated."

Joey didn't exactly care that people were coughing due to his smoking; If your family was stuck in Durem possibly being attacked by their toasters, or their Pasta Primavera, one would need a quick Nicotine fix as well. In all honesty, Joey was stressing out almost.
When one of the girls told him that they were going to Durem as well, Joey nodded and he said, "Cool." then took another puff of his cigarette. But he started to almost freak again when he heard the sound of crunching. As soon as he was told to 'ditch the motorcycle' Joey's eyes widened, though one wouldn't see due to the fact he was wearing his shades. Joey stood up and he said to the girl, "'Ey! Whoa, girlie, this here is MAH BABY!- It was once Papa Ferrozzo's and now it belongs ta' me! This baby won't get animated, because it's mah ride!"
Joey put his cigarette out using the bottom of his boot, then he took a comb out from his back pocket and fixed his hair. He looked at the group and he said, "Oh, by the way, I'm Joey Ferrozzo."

"Rayna," she coughed, trying to get the last of the smoke out of her system. 'This guy's a Fonz wannabe...with a cigarette,' she thought a bit unimpressed. "Look. Joey, would you--" she said in a raspy voice and cleared her throat, "would you rather risk your bike throwing you off and trampling you out of the blue?" she asked him and stared blankly, hands on her hips.

Nasrin had turned her attention away from they're conversation. Her eyes and attention were strained as they attempt to figure out what had made the crunching sound in the forest to either side of them. There is nothing there, but... She looked over to where Jack was getting up and dusting himself off. She walked over quickly and then stooped to look at the mark on the ground.
There were four hand size holes right before one large hole. If my memory serves right. Then these are the marks for where a ticket booth stood and that hole is one side of the fence, she thought straightening. She then flinched as yet another crunching sound came from the forest to her right. Is that the fence or the ticket booth?, she thought as she prepared her rings.
However the crunching didn't continue. Instead there was strange sound, like that of a metal bat being swung back and forth in the air. Nasrin looked up to find that the fences had taken to the sky.
Both of the poles that had serve to hold the fence were headed for them, though she wasn't how they could fly. Since they're wings were made of the Gothic designed fence they once supported. Darn i really wish I had a long range ring right now

"Aw great, like things couldn't possibly get any worse." Jack tighten his grip. He prepared for the giant chain metal bat to come swooping down. Being he had no long range ring he stood his ground.
"Hey ugly! Get down here and let me cut you down a peg." He yelled at the animated seriously ticked and not caring about the others around him.

"Okay, what are those?" Rayna asked no one in particular. She equipped her Mantis ring and scanned her surroundings, trying to figure out a way to get whatever they were close enough for the group to attack.

Nasrin shot a glance at Rayna before turning her attention to the two flying gate poles,"They use to be the poles and gates of that lead into the Circus grounds."
She bit her lip as she tried to think of away to get them down, without using herself as a target. In till she shook her head,"Ignore them, if they're not attacking us. Then there is no reason to-" She cut off as she noted a flicker of white from her right. Ducking out of the way, she land and then looked up to see that her attacker was a ticket booth.
Several strands of ticket wiggles out like multiple tongues. Those could create very nasty paper cuts, She thought as she rolled out the way of one of the tongues. I don't know which would be worse being poke at by metal or cut up by paper.

"Tickets. The ticket booth? Oh, seriously?!" Rayna asked in an exasperated tone. She jumped out of the way when another group of ticket tongues attacked. "If they're tickets, we can just...slice them!" she said and paused to demonstrate with her Mantis. "As long as those pole things stay over there, we can deal with these. Nobody attack the Animated in the air unless they come closer."
