Mavis stared out the window of the trailer. " Oscar, a mob is coming".
He frowned and picked up his magic sheet. " Sorry Mavis, this happens to me all the time".
" Thank you for letting me work with you". She gave him a peck on the cheek. " You better go".
A knock came on the door. " Open up Oscar". The knocks came louder. " Come on out you phony".
Oscar put the sheet over him.
A clown burst through the door. " Mavis, where is he?". He moved toward the sheet.
" Zim Zim Zallah Bim".
The clown reached the sheet. The sheet dropped in front of his eyes. The clown scratched his chin in amazement. Oscar was gone.
" There he is".
Oscar ran between the tents and then toward the circus's hot air balloon's.
As Oscar got into one, the clown put a hand on the balloon's basket. Oscar kicked him in the shin and the clown dropped to the ground.
Oscar took a knife and cut the rope holding the basket to the ground.
The balloon slowly rose up into a dark and stormy Kansas sky.
