Standing in line was boring to say the least, and Alexis took the opportunity to check her cellphone while waiting. The line was starting to move. [I]Finally...[/i] 

As she was scrolling through a menu something caught her ear, but only barely. It sounded like a gunshot, but very distant. Noone else really seemed to notice or care and she shrugged the sound off as maybe just hearing the cracking of a whip in one of the nearby tents. 

Finally receiving her cone, blue raspberry as was her favourite, her curiosity would be piqued at the sight of a determined Mr Winchester, the mysterious magician himself, would come inside the big top. He began weaving in and out of the crowd until he started to pass close by. 

Now was her chance, she could actually ask, and talk to someone who didn't seem much different than herself. What an opportunity! 

“Mr. Winchester” she asked quickly as he started to pass, “May I ask you something?” 

How did you duplicate yourself? And set your finger alight? But was stunned when you found a cold waterbottle?” 

Alex made no attempt to sugar-coat this attempt. If this wasn't a red flag in his direction it was a false trail with more than its share of embarrassment on her part.

“A-are you okay?” she asked through blue lips ( compliments of her recent icy treat ) noticing him so determined about something. Something seemed to have his feathers ruffled.
