Jack was never expecting to be gifted let alone getting two gifts.
On his 19th birthday long after he had given up on being blessed with power he had found out that he was half vampire and half creepy magician.
He could bend his body in odd ways and flip through the air like an acrobat , but he had fangs like the other Vampires.
Jack wanted to tell his mom but the Vampires hated the Freak shows for centuries.
They'd call him a clown if they found out.
Jack was sad. Jack was mad , but no one had the powers that Jack had
Jack was angry. Jack questioned God , but Jack wasnt planning to be bad
Jack was strong , did no wrong but Jack had no where to belong
Jack wasn't trendy , he walked on his hands , Jack was handsome thin and long
Jack was bendy but not out of shape , Jack was stronger than an ape
Jack was smart with a strong tone bod and strong enough to kill a God.
Ladies and Gents , I give you Jack , OUTSIDE the box.
The protagonist of our story stood in a Circus on the opposite side of the wall from where he lived.
His face was painted white and he was clad in tights that made the thing between his legs look monsterous.
He flipped through the air repeatedly feeling as free as ever.
Far away from his family and his boring Vampire life....he found his own piece of Paradise.
The Circus of Promise and Dreams.
The audience clapped and screamed his name ....well while he flipped and popped off like a pop quiz they screamed the name they thought was his.
He told them his name was Peter and he made the name seem sexier than it usually was.
The crowd chanted his name like he was a superstar and for a moment he felt like one.
In the Circus he felt like he was flying, surrounded by kids who accepted him or just half of him , but it was the half of him that he was ashamed of.
That half was important.
He landed on his feet and bowed gracefully with a cute and creepy smile.
A nursery rhyme played in the back ground.
He was gifted roses then he left the stage with pride
" Hey Peter, I like your flips." A girl his age called after him.
He turned around and gave her a grin , a creepy grin that made girls love him.
Jack was creepy, Jack was odd , but strong enough to kill a God.
" I flip to feel , I flip to flirt but if I fight my flips might make you hurt." Jack said and the girl giggled.
She gave him a paper with her number on it and skipped away from him.
He left the circus and found bathroom near the border wall where he could change out of his disguise and wash his face.
Jack's deeds were dirty , so jack got clean
He'd be a laughing stock if he was seen.
" You're a Vampire ? " A voice asked and he looked around.
He had just left the bathroom and didn't realize that he had been followed.
The owner of the voice appeared in front of him. It was a girl with spots on her skin.
" You can't tell anyone."
" You're Peter."
" No i'm not." Jack said and the he sighed in frustration.
" Listen , don't tell anyone about this."
" I'm sorry.I don't keep secrets for Vampires." The girl said then she turned to walk off.
He grabbed her hand.
"I'm also one of your kind , but I'm also a Vampire , but I'm not like the rest of them." He said and the girl rolled her eyes at him.
" That's impossible !"
"Aren't I the evidence ?" Jack said then he let her go.
" I'll do you 3 favors if you keep my secret." He said and the girl smiled
She thought she had him in a bind but Jack had secrets of all kinds
Jack liked worship . Jack liked praise
Jack liked fighting with his friends for days
Jack liked the Circus and day dreams in his head
Jack liked playing horror games in bed
His father thought he'd play with friends his father played the fool instead
Of all his harmless secrets there's one he never said
He's the reason why his father's dead
