___Hazina watched Amee walk away, feeling almost a tinge of desperation, a fleeting sense of insecurity in facing this sheik alone. She fought it, remember what she had been through many times before, and experience teaching her that if you can reduce the chance of a fellow female being victimized, do it. Her knock had echoed into the trailer, but there had been no answer. No doubt the pig was occupied with another woman. Well, as long as it got her one step closer to finding her way, she would grit her teeth and bear it. Unlike the eternal saying, she would not grin at this man, nor would she smile, at least not on purpose. Gripping her bundles, she prepared herself, no doubt he would want witness to what her abilities could bring to his crew. Money grubber, probably. Her heavily biased mind began to run rampant with fantasies targeting this innocent she had never even met as a bigot. For a moment she smiled, envisioning sneaking a snake into his bed and freeing the women from his tyranny. She would be a hero!
___Common sense kicked in and she sighed with disappointment. The hard part about being in reality, was accepting that not everyone was as bad as you may imagine, but it didn't mean she couldn't hope. Setting down a package she raised her metal arm impatiently, and pounded on the door. Answer you chauvinistic fool!

HUHWHAT?
Waking up suddenly, Aiden looked around, slightly disoriented by the loud sound that has caused him to wake. Bleh. What time was it? It had to be midday. And that's not good. Aiden had overslept, and he knew it. Damn. Oh, well. He was the ringleader, after all. What could Cirque do, fire him? Hah. Good luck with all that. Of course, there were some things that could happen, but Aiden wasn't worried. All he had done was sleep a little more than usual. Which was probably a good thing. A ringmaster without sleep is like a... Well, Aiden was still too grogy to come up an analogy for that. OH, well, it didn't much matter.
Realizing that he hadn't gone to answer to the noise that woke him up, Aiden leaped out of bed and instantly threw some nice-looking clothes on. After all, he couldn't very well go to the door and look like a mess. Despite this, he had gotten dressed in such a rush, some buttons of his shirt were in the wrong button-hole, causing him to look like he had only just gotten dressed. He definitely had a case of bed-head, but that didn't matter. He knew he could make up for that. Rushing to the door, he flung it open and plastered a charming smile on his face.
"Hello? What can I help you with, dear?"
Oh, Lord did Aiden hate mornings.

___Hazina turned her head ever so slightly, her eyes examining this man carefully. His hair was messed, had be been ... consorting with a woman? He was pale, and all the pale men she'd ever been around were not a friend to her. Those dark marks though ... defective birthmarks? Scars? Though, she had to admit, that was some smile he had. Suddenly she remembered why she was there, and bowed her head at him, signaling her subservience.
___"I am here ..." She bit the inside of her cheek, she was having a hard time concentrating on the English that woman had taught her. "I am trained in Fakir." Hazina fought her clumsy tongue. Embarrassed but not wanting to show this man how weak she was, the Masai dropped the bag and whipped out her linked staff. "I show. If not good, I am strong. I can work." She felt her confidence ebbing, and felt ashamed of how desperate she was coming off to him. As if to reassure herself she said firmly, "Not weak."

Aiden wasn't exactly sure what was going on. He raised an eyebrow and scratched his head nervously as this woman spoke. What was she wanting to do? It was far too early in the day for Aiden to be dealing with this sort of thing. Or, it was too early in his day, rather, since he had woken up so late. Ah, it didn't matter much, however. Aiden decided to play it safe as he nodded and smiled at the woman on his doorstep.
"Yes. A-alright. Sure," He strung together, hoping that was the right answer, "I believe you that you're strong." That seemed polite, right? And that was a major accomplishment on Aiden's part, since it was so early in the morning!
Was this woman new? She must've been, he didn't remember seeing her around before. However, he was bad about remembering people and names, so possibly she wasn't. It didn't matter much; Aiden was going to let her do what she wanted regardless.

___Bowing once more and quickly, she stepped off the trailer and back onto solid ground. Clapping her hands with dust she began the quick routine she'd worked up for the basic audition. She braced herself, before doing a backwards flip, and landing on her hands. Dropping her body down she quickly threw her body around moving her hands to allow the rotation and doing another flip to return standing, and facing the man. In a fluid motion after landing she brought out two polished sticks and dragged them on the ground, lighting them on fire.
___Twirling them quickly she opened her mouth and leaned back, inserting the right and extinguishing it, mimicking the classic eating of the fire. The other she continued to spin, leaning down and whipping her leg up to spin on her other foot, before placing it in her mouth and breathing a cloud of fire up and above the trailer. Hazina quickly relit the other on her breath and connected the sticks to create a single pole flaming at both ends. She spun it quickly, dodging and flipping her way through the kicks and spins. Hazina threw herself on the ground, kneeling in an exaggerated pose with the flaming baton extended away from her back, and her other arm stretched to him.
___"Do you wish, for more?" She lowered her eyes to the ground, face flushed from the activity and feeling upset that she hadn't remembered to do anything more impressive.
___He said nothing, she couldn't tell if he had fallen asleep or not. Hazina shrugged, she had gotten clearance from the gorgeous Scarlett. Her mind wandered back to the enchanting blonde, what a strong driven woman she was. The man-pig didn't seem to notice her mind wander, and she bowed shortly, taking fast leave. If he didn't want her there, he would have to drag her out by her heels!
