ALIFE
Meanwhile, the vagarious circus was filled with fuss. There was no one to perform. Salvatori was feeling desperate. He contributed so much of himself through his life to this affair and so, out of blue everything started ruining. He always seemed an unhumorous man, mostly as he almost had no childhood. Since early he had to protect his toys and his privacy in the orphanage. Because theft and robbery ruled the world there. He never knew his mother, of when and how he had been born. First memory was an attempt to being grabbed a feeding bottle with milk.
The world is cruel and insecure, take all you can! - thought Salvatori for himself.
He acted strict to the plan. 20 years passed, since he had run away from the orphanage, stolen a trolley, made wagon out of it by attaching a roof and a shed and set off to search for adventures.

First he started acting as a knife thrower. But it was nothing to do with outstanding performance. Then he met the Hatter who was able to control the birds. They made their first show together. The more - the better. Salvatori got a secret from a dark wizard, the knowledge of how to capture human emotions and recast them into candies. These candies make you feel incredible euphoric excitement. They became the main joy of his life. Now he saw no sense his activities without them. At evenings after performances he usually took a couple and he drifted away, to the world of dreams where he was a happy boy hopping up the clouds. And that was the innermost secret of his.
The stock was about to run out, there were none to act, absolute despair.
-Why dont we recruit new actors? - offered the Hatter timidly.
-Are you crazy?! It is so much that they will need and where to find them, by the way?!
-We will hang an advert in the next town, someone will surely come.
-What town is next?
-Basilix Town
-Hey-ho, anyway, weve got no choice! Get the adverts ready, quick! - ordered Salvatori.
Having an enjoyable talk, the anubises approached to the river.
-Okay, now we need to make a floating board, what to start with? - Augustus scratched his head.
-Timber first! - said Arcy.
-Lets pull down this tree. Its dry and straight and its shielding the light to a smaller one. Its most proper to floating. - advised Stan. He was very quiet, even silent pig, but he was well educated.
-Good idea! Aaaalll to-gether - one, two, three!! - and the dry wood fell down to the ground.
-Still we need to cut it to 3 pieces, thats quite enough, right, Stan? - Augustus was reckoning where he would saw.
-Correct. We also need two cross- sectional canes. Sean, can you find?
-Okay.

Suddenly they heard a loud scream. Anubises got it at once, someone - to be rescued, and they rushed for help.
A bit far from them they could see a huge crocodile, and something in his jaws.
-Well-well, here comes the Moon, the. Salvatoris acolyte!
-God, thats true!
-How has he turned up here?
-What should we do?
-Were gonna help him, and then well find out.

They took the canes as weapon, started to drag the crocodile away, tapping randomly to its skin.

At that moment the crocodile lost interest in the Moon and spat it out. Thank you for saving my life! I didnt expect such turn of circumstances - the Moon was totally confused - I dont know how to show my gratitude, I could have died! I was a close shave to death. And you rescued me, even though I was your enemy. Salvatori sent me to follow and watch you. Well now, everything will be different! I feel myself as if I have been just reborn!!! I want to serve the good, Im tired of the darkest side. But please understand me correctly, Ive got a clause: dont ask me about Salvatori and his deeds. I want to become the good one, but I do not want to become Salvatoris traitor at once. Im gonna be with you. just it. Is it okay?
-We are glad to see you change in such
way, but. we cant believe you at once, you must display yourself, experience, - replied Arcy.
