It was a normal day. I got up, went to school, and had planned on returning home to do the loads of homework I had packed with me. However, that all changed when I opened the front door….

"Itachi, Itachi," yelled Sasuke as I entered the mansion.

He was 11 years old therefore he got out of school earlier than me. I love him more than anything…even if he occasionally blew out my ear drums. I, on the other hand, am16 just starting my life and all that crap. I am currently going to Takaishi High School for the blah blah blah. I never cared to learn the ending of it.

My mother mostly stayed at home (she was paranoid that the maid might steal some of her jewelry) and Father was a traveling business man, so it to no one's surprise when he came home and told us that one of his friends from another country had invited us to a one of their coming attractions.

"We're going to a circus," Mother said nonchalantly.

"Oh, a circus how….interesting," I replied.

"Well actually, the freak show is the main attraction but seeing a circus might be some good fun for Sasuke," Father stated, patting him on the head.

"Freak show," I inquired

"Oh enough, it's getting late. Itachi, Sasuke, hurry upstairs and do your home work. The circus is in a few hours." Mother began to rush us up the steps. I imeditly protested to see if my question would be answered; however, when it wasn't I sighed and entered my room.

Once inside, I sat down and opened one of my books and began my work. But even with all my concentration focused of the problems a thought still lurked in my mind, "What was this 'freak show' Father was taking about." I decided to get my answer from the only people who would know…

"A freak show, isn't that where Dei-chan came from," laughed Hidan.

"Shut the fuck up, Hidan," chirped Deidara.

"No, I think he is pretty accurate," interjected the monotone Sasori.

"SHUT UP!"

"What is in a freak show," I once again (after about the fifth time!) asked.

"Freaks," answered Kakuzu.

"You don't say," Hidan yelled sarcastically.

"The weasel asked and I answered," Kakuzu replied in a low tone.

"What kinds of freaks" I decided to change the question.

"People with odd mutations that are not commonly seen or not yet even discovered," Sasori was always the one to truly analyze something.

"Hmn thanks," Oh that's right "It's getting late I have to go, bye," and with that I hung up my phone.

I pushed away my books and after hearing Sasuke announce that he was ready to go, I redressed myself in a loose T-shirt a baggy jeans. Just because I belonged to a rich family doesn't mean I have to act like a spoiled child with no humility. I walked slowly down the stairs and, without even looking in my mother and fathers way, I grabbed Sasukes hand and led him to the car. He lovingly squeezed my hand and smiled at me.

"Are you excited," He exclaimed looking me over

I faked a smile.

"Oh yeah, I'm thrilled."

"Good! Daddy said that it would be fun!"

"Yeah he is always a reliable source." I made sure to drench my words in sarcasm

Entering the car, Mother and Father put on their seat belts. Father turned his head back and smiled at sasuke and me while Mother ignored us completely and even huffed in impatience when he asked us a series of questions all, in the end, pertaining to our comfort.

"Lets go, before we're late."
