The Carnival - Chapter 7 *Last Chapter* + *EPILOGUE*

We followed magician tutu inside. He kept looking back at Jack and me, apparently looking afraid that we might get away. I looked around and realized that the canopy has a very dim light, hard for a normal human to see.
"Jack, I love you but I love myself more," Adriana said with a mischief smile on her face which shone like gold. Jack looked away uninterestingly but the pain in his eyes covered all over his face. I know he was worried, he was inviting his death. I wanted to kiss all his pain away but Adriana's cold eyes stopped me.
"SASHA!!" I heard Haley's voice. Haley had tears all over small face. She looked red and terrified. I ran to her and hugged her tightly. She kept on weeping and repeating "I am so sorry. I am so sorry." To which I replied being all teary myself "no I am sorry. I was the one not giving you enough time and ignored you. Even though Kevin broke up with me, I should have looked after you"

"Awwwwwww......so sweet!! Now get the hell outta here!!" magician tutu screamed.
"Please do not hurt Jack...." I started but magician tutu yelled louder "GET OUT!!!! OR CONSIDER YOURSELF DEAD!"
I covered Haley's ear, who looked horrified and flabbergasted. She hid her face in my chest as I was holding her. Jack came to my side and pushed me out and kept on whispering "Leave... just leave"
I walked quietly out of the canopy and in to the crowded part not knowing what to do but deep inside my mind I had clear idea that I was not going to let jack die. According to jack the magician tutu ceremony's of rejuvenating life in him and his daughter will be when the moon will be the biggest and that happens when it is full moon and still about half hour was left. I was sure that I have to get Haley home safely and it will not involve her so I decided to first figure out the way to send her home safely.
"Hey! Sasha!" I heard a gruffy voice to which I turned around and saw a police officer.
"How do you know my name and what do you want?" I asked alarmed.

"It is okay sweetie. I am inspector Mortimer and your mom called at the police station. She mailed us your picture and she said you were not attending her calls. As you are under eighteen so we have to get to you as soon as possible. Come on you have to go back to your mom. Give your little sister to me. I with few other cops will take you home safely." Inspector Mortimer exclaimed. I saw a bunch of policemen staring at me and then one of them brought a cell phone to me. I held it against my ear and heard my mom yelling at me first then getting all so caring and worried the next moment. I, like an obedient child nodded to every word she said and whenever she demanded an explanation all I did is apologized because I had no real explanation and I also apologized to her secretly in my heart for what I was planning to do because it might cost me my life.

"Let me escort you to the car and we will follow you till your home so that we know you reach safely." Inspector Mortimer said as few of the policemen took Haley with them.
"Definitely but since I came here all I wanted to do was to take the ride at Ferris wheel but it was so crowded. Please let me take one ride and I will be very grateful to you" I said with big brown baby eyes which looked innocent like the cat in Shrek. I was right about that area being crowded part so I was sure he was going to buy this. It was all the part of the plan which I made spontaneously and was hoping that it might work.

"Fine but I will go along with you and will wait for you till you are done with that swing" inspector Mortimer said sternly. I nodded and started moving at the direction of the Ferris wheel. That area was still crowded, crowded enough to lose him in it and escape silently.
I bought the ticket and stood in queue for the Ferris wheel and prayed in my heart for inspector Mortimer to look away, even just for a jiffy. And the moment came at last when he looked away at a child who got his knee scratched. I swiftly escaped from the queue and silently like a ghost started moving towards the magician tutu's canopy.

I looked back and saw inspector Mortimer searching the whole line for me as I was not visible to him. I realized that I did not have enough time and I have to get away fast. I wished that I could tell him about Jack and magician tutu so he can help me rescue him but I was not ready to take a risk because magician tutu had woo doo dolls and whatever he will do to them, same will happen to jack and his father. I was very near the canopy when I realized that hardly five minutes were left so I started running even faster. I heard inspector Mortimer screaming my name but I was sure he will not be able to find me, at least not for some time. I reached the entrance of the canopy and crept inside.

The most horrifying scene filled my eyes as magician tutu tied Jack's dad on the metal bed and stabbed him with a sword as soon as full moon appeared on the sky. I muffled my screams with my hands and tears blurred my vision. I wished that I could save him but now it was too late, jack's dad was dead and jack now too was dragged to another metal bed. Magician tutu looked different as color filled his pale skin and he looked healthier but Adriana looked the same. The moment he killed jack's dad, suddenly he started to grow healthier and stronger. I saw magician tutu handing Adriana the sword so that she could kill jack to get his life for her body but that was the moment I risked my life. I ran as fast as I could and jumped at Adriana. Her strong grip did not let the sword slip out of her hand so maintaining strong grip she stood as soon as I did. We both were facing each other and I was sure that magician tutu was right behind me to kill me. From here I had no idea about what to do and I was blank.

"YOU B****!!" Adriana screamed, anger burst through her voice.
"Please leave her!! She is innocent! It is me that you want. Leave her!" Jack screamed and begged to magician tutu and Adriana.
"NO! This has gone too far. Did not she realize that I was kind enough to let her and her sister go? She will die and so will you!" Magician tutu declared in an authoritative voice.
"And pleasure will be all mine" Adriana said as she threw her sword so that it would pass through me, tearing me apart.
"NOOOOO!!" Jack wailed struggling to get free from the bed to which he was tied. But right at that moment I fell to my knees and sword crossed over my head with a few inches and pierced through magician tutu's stomach.
"AAArrrgghhhhh!!! He screamed towards Adriana "You blind piece of crap!!" suddenly he fell to his knees and started turning in to sand. I turned around to see Adriana and she was in the same state. A gust of cold wind from nowhere started to blow and suddenly the both were taken away.

"Is it over?" I cried and then suddenly started untying Jack.
"Yes it is! Yes it is!" he said and hugged me hard until I was deep inside and buried in him. His body scent surrounded me and I hugged him harder. I looked over Jack's father body and it twas gone too.
"What happened? Where did your father's body go?" I asked, confused still hugging him.
"It is gone because it was his life used for reliving by magician tutu and now because magician tutu is dead so it will automatically converts in to dust." He replied suddenly parting until our faces were close to each other. "Why are you so stupid?! Why did you come back?! He asked in whispers which made his voice extremely sexy. "...because I like you a lot" I whispered back, my hands tied behind his neck. Suddenly he leaned forward and we were tied in a kiss.
His kiss was different in every way as now I have earned it. For the moment I felt he was all mine and his butter like tongue explored my mouth to which my tongue invited further. I squeezed my eyes shut as his hands held me tightly and his kiss grew deeper, hotter and more passionate.

"Ahem,ahem" I heard inspector Mortimer's husky voice. Suddenly jack and I parted as if we were caught doing a crime. "...so you just should have told me you wanna meet a friend." Inspector Mortimer teased me. I looked away and apologized. Jack and I followed him to my car and I noticed that the moon was pure and beautiful like my passion for jack but I was not sure about us. For the moment it was hard to even imagine leaving him.
"so is it goodbye?" I asked sadly as tears shimmered in my eyes. Haley was sitting in the car with her baby bear pressed close against her chest.
"I do not know. I think I will move to South Dakota with my grandmother." He said confused and thought fully but sadness filled his voice too. "Wait! What?! I live in South Dakota!" I screamed happily and pounced over him. He held me in his arms and started kissing me.

"I was so worried that I will never see you again. I am so thankful to you for risking your life to save me... even though I lost my dad but I am not sad because my dad never talked to me or my mother until he met magician tutu and needed a body. You are all mine and I will love you day in and day out because you stole my heart the first time I saw you" He said between kisses to which I kept on returning the kiss.
"We are going to be late!" inspector Mortimer asked hiding his temper "hey you gonna come too?"
"Yes!" Jack said kissing me again which made my heart flutter. "Just let me get to my car"
He walked towards the hot, jet black Lamborghini and slid inside. My car looked so tiny in front of it. "I guess I forgot to tell you that my grandmother is BB Dakota." BB Dakota was one of the richest ladies of South Dakota and it was a bigger surprise for me then knowing magician tutu was a 'real' magician.
"Oh I see" I said smiling and thought of jack and how perfect he is and how he is all mine. I sat in my tiny yet cool car and we all fled back to home.
