*Xander smiled, he was glad that Ben promised to keep her away. But knew that the time might come when they get close enough to each other where Ben would feel obligated to show this girl where he lived.*
*Aryanna could tell that Ben wanted her to go out and have a good time. Sometimes he seemed like a kid, but maybe that was what Aryanna liked so much about him. She grabbed his hand and stood up, using his strength to help pull up her limber body.* I completely agree with you. But this is my job and it’s also my life. I can't just go and disappear on them. *Smiling at her dragon like boyfriend.* The show is starting in less then thirty minutes. Plus, don’t you think this place needs it’s good luck charm. *That, and she helped with the back stage. She felt like she was needed back stage. What if something went wrong?*
*Then he challenged her. Did she think she was going to stop him. Yes.* Sorry Hun, but I can’t go. Not just for my works sake. For mine and yours. My brother would not find a soft spot in his heart for you, or I, if he found out that you convinced me to leave minutes before a show. *Knowing that Ben wouldn’t like that, Aryanna smiled sweetly at Ben.* Some other time, when I can sneak away.
*Then Mr. Dragon introduced his friend. Aryanna smiled at the obvious nickname. He was either a blind man or a really good actor.* Well it’s nice to meet you, I’m sure you know who I am, by now. *Aryanna smiled, not sure if he was visually challenged or not.
*With a smile Xander shrugged.* Oh are you talking about that one thing? *Xander knew all of Ben’s deep dark secrets. But on the other hand, Ben knew all of Xanders.*

Ben was disappointed when she confirmed it be a bad idea for him to kidnap her he sighed and held her hand for a bit “so your sister yells at you all the time and your brother whould throw a fit if I kidnaped you do you have any other siblings o waight is the sister that will take the clouse off my back the same one that was yelling or are there 2 of them how many siblings do you have” he raised he brow was there more people in this crazy family he wasn't sure he could keep track of them.
But the idea of kidnapping her some time did bring a smile to his face “just let me know when and I will be there” he smiled at her.
Ben rolled his eyes when he said that one thing, “yes that one thing and that other thing and if you say that one thing I will say that one thing about you and we can be o so dramtic about this can't we” Ben squeezed aryannas hand and smiled at her “Aryanna I hope that you and Batty hear will be good friend or at lest friends”

*Aryanna was nodding as Ben tried to get her family.* Well those are only their bad qualities, but I have two sisters and a brother. I also have an array of cousins and the troupe members who aren’t Furys are as good as family. So basically everyone you see who is a carny, or as we prefer: gypsy, is my family. *With a smile Aryanna nodded.* I’ll definitely let you know.
*Xander paused. Listening to all that was happening. Hearing Ben’s threat he chuckled.* I’m sorry, there seemes to be something you overlooked oh lord of lizards. This girl seems to be like seventeen or eighteen, aren’t you like ten years older than her? *He was joking, he was interested in meeting this girl and knowing her, but she also seemed busy and seem to have a lot on her plate.* Look dude, you're acting like a total loser, how on earth could a girl like her seriously fall for a idiot who mimics the batman theme song in public.
*Aryanna giggled, his friend did have a slight point but seemed to be picking on his friend more than anything. It was funny though, and her Angel was acting a little dorky, but Aryanna liked that.*

Ben nodded that was easy to keep track of for the most part 2 and one and then everyone else was a cousin or like family “O.k gypsy…it is then” it was kind of odd that he always pichered gypsy’s for being dark haired women who where hand me downs and read palms not blond blue eyes and with a head set.
But when Xander was pointing out the age he glared at his friend “I’m not the pedo bear hear or should we talk about who you spent your night with Im 23 years old so even if she is 17 still not tactually legal with out mom and dad saying yes but, its not like I’m sleeping with her” he calmed down a bit and looked at Aryanna by the fact that he was acting like a dork he had a slight blush then he snaped back at xander.
“well smart mouth why don’t you ask her, herself she is right hear” it was a good point ben had no idea on why she liked him but she did and why didn’t xander just ask her she was standing right there and she wasn’t going to be going anywhere for the next 25 minutes or so when ever the show was going to start unless she had to take off early.

*Xander wanted to attack Ben for his comment, but instead he’d attack in a different way.* If that’s how you feel, see if I help you the next time someone goes missing. *Xander would have said something very low but he wasn’t good with strangers, which meant that he didn’t trust them. With that Xander turned and extended his walking stick. Turning around, Xander took a few steps away, showing that he was done with talking about that subject. Ben should have known that the little cat girl was probably scared and it seemed that Xander was the first one to be nice to her. But that still didn’t matter. Ben was just taking it a bit too far.*
-Aryanna-
*With a little blush she watched the two boys. They didn’t seem all that close.* I guess I didn’t make it clear, but I’m actually nineteen. That makes only a four year difference. And it isn’t nice to call your friend something that he obviously doesn’t like.
*Then she thought about why she liked the dragon king and smiled at Ben.* I don’t think I’ll tell you at this point. *She didn’t know all the reasons herself. She did know that he was attractive and nice and funny. He also was willing to do anything for her, and seemed to like her too.*

Ben didn't let his grad down he was expecting a punch in the face or something He may of over stepped hear and they had been at this most of the day. When he just turned Ben gave a small groan and turned to Aryanna still holding her hand.
He whispered into Aryannas ear “I need to kidnap you for a second don't worry we will not leave” he made it sound flirtatious like they where going to sneek off and go make out but his face showed a different plane.
“Hey Batman, you want to start heading to the gate or stay hear I'm going to walk Aryanna to the show tent”
He then took Aryanna and walked a little ways away before he was sure he was out of ear shot of Xander before turning back to her “I'm going to need your help to win one of these games we all know that there no real way to win them unless your luckly, I made a promise for Batman earlyer this morning that he get something for are new foster sister, she been having a hard time fitting in lately she younger then the rest of us and for the first time she was making a friend with Batman of all people, problem is the little girl going to have a broken heart when we come home and don't have anything for her, it doesn't have to be much really I was thinking of getting a hotdog on the way out but I think a toy of some sort would be better”
He looked at Aryanna hopeing that she say yes no this wasn't making out but they didn't really just make out and know he wasn't walking her to the tent but he wanted to to be fast before xander got board and walked home on his own.

*Aryanna nodded and looked at his friend who was obviously not in a good mood. Maybe it was all the people...*
*Xander sighed as Ben talked. He knew that Ben was lying, but he really didn’t care about what he was going to do. Xander knew that he needed some time alone to cool off himself.* Fine, I’ll leave so you can hump your girlfriend. *Xander then started to walk off, maneuvering his way through the crowd. He was half tempted to make his way to the hideout without the lizard king.*
*As he left Aryanna looked up to Ben and smiled, giggling a little bit.* Well that is true. I can win every game here. *She thought. Crap, what if someone saw her with him. She was really doing a good job about keeping her new relationship a secret. She pulled her hand away from his.* I will help you, but only out of the goodness of my heart, and that it’s for a kid. *She didn’t want to say that she didn’t want anyone to know that they were going out, but it was better this way...at least in her mind.*

Ben rolled his eyes xander knew better then anyone that Ben would never do that to a girl and even more so when they had only known each other for a few days.
He smiled when she said yes “thanks hun, Sorry this wasn't such a fun time today I will make up for it this weekend” She was acting a bit odd by letting go of her hand and saying she was only doing this out of the goodness of her heart was this her way of saying stay back, was she having mood swings. Ben shuged and almost normal looking shug if it wasn't for the fact that the lumb under his jacket didn't move and just his shoulders did.
He looked around and spoted a spot where there where lots of games and prizes that little kids whould enjoy he looked at Aryanna and steeped into one of the lines for a game that was simply knock down the bottles. Ben wasn't sure how this hole luck thing worked or if it be supper noticabule that he was using luck to win.
The guy at the frount handed him 3 balls when Ben handed him the money for the chance to win he threw the ball in the air sondonly thinking that this was a bad idea but it was to late now to take it back he threw the first ball hitting all but one of the pins down the guy in the both was acting all happy that he had made it and was going on if he could hit the last one down then he chould pick anything off the top self..perfect..he just thought not only did she give me luck but he was going to be taking home a giant thing that was almost the size of Kristy that was if he hit the last one he threw the next ball meaning to miss and thankfully doing so the last one he hit square on knocking it down the guy at the both smiled and juestred to the stuff on the top self witch was a lot of large stuffed animles with some stuff that was more for adults. Ben smiled and pointed to a very large Lion. He then walked over to Aryanna and smiled at her.
“Thanks I know she'll love it” he laughed “ackully I don't think she ever had a toy this big before she will proboully freak out over it” he smiled at her he sighed and looked “i guess I should get back to batty before he crazy enogh to go home by him self”

*Aryanna smiled at Ben.* Don’t worry about it. On second thought, you do owe me. *She gave a little giggle. Aryanna took the headset once again from him, placing it around her neck. This was so she could hear it, but still be on her own.*
*When they walked up to a booth Aryanna waved at the operator, calling him by his name and went right up to him and talked to him. The operator kept helping with the game. Some would get close, and once in awhile, someone would win. When it was Ben’s turn Aryanna just nodded at him and smiled. She gave him more luck, he would most likely win now.*
*As Ben hit the last pin Aryanna moved away, saying goodbye to the operator she smiled at Angel as he walked up to her.* Any time, luck is my specialty. *She smiled and heard something in the headset.* Yea and I better get back to my job. I’ll see you later Angel. *With a wing, Aryanna was off to the big tent to finish the preparations for the show.*

When she took off Ben smiled and waved at him and walked off holding the huge stuffed animule in his arms and went off to go find his friend he wasn't hard to find it didn't quite make it to the gate yet but he wasn't at the spot he had started and he was just leaning against a post Ben shoke his head when he as he got clouser to him.
“Lets go home bud neather of us do well when emosions jump around like this” He waighted for him to get off of the post before he put the lion in his hand “Its for Kristy, Its a stuff Animal a lion. If she asked you got it for her and no im not going to give it to her well talk on the way if you want come on bud”
He stood close seeing if Xander would take his shoulder or not or if he just push pass him and walk away “you know bud...I think your one of the only people that, that little girl thinks can protect her, with everything it seems she been threw..i'm just happy she found a friend or at lest someone who she can trust a little bit”

*Xander leaned against a pole he had found. Trying to make it through the crowd was more effort then it was worth. Ben would find him soon enough. All he had to do was wait for him to finish what ever he was doing with his girlfriend. People passed him, paying him little to no mind. That was when he heard someone coming closer to him.*
*Xander heard Ben’s voice. Nodding he shrugged off the pole that he was on. Then he was handed something. Being told what it was, he felt the stuffed lion and smiled.* This day sucks. *He then thought about it and laughed a little bit.* Do you really expect her to believe that a blind guy won a stupid carnival game. Fine, but later we need to talk about something. *Now wasn’t the right time. But he knew that it would have to come up soon.*
*Xander had half a mind to just walk on his own. But there were so many people around that he grabbed onto Ben’s shoulder.* Just because of that one time. I’m sure that if you had found her, she would have done the exact same thing to you if you had stopped those guys. *He sighed.* I’m exhausted, let's get back home so I can dump this with the cat and sleep till night. *Whether he was truly tired or not, Xander was just naturally lazy and this adventure had taken up most of the day.*

Ben laughed a little at the idea of him winning “Hey with a lot of these games the eyes trick you anyway im sure you could win one its about luck mostly anyway” Ben did look at him when he said that they needed to talk latter about something.
“Fine when do you want to talk” ben chucked a bit when he said that she would of done the same thing to him “Does it matter, you still saved her in her mind I'm just the meany who takes you away from her and picks her up and flys away she hates flying almost as much as you do if not more heck im surpized I don't have sratchs form last night because of her”
He walked until they where savely home knowing that Xander whould gladly let go know that he knew where everything was as soon as they opened the door Kristy poked her head around the corner and saw Xander and Ben and ran up to them with a huge smile on her face “Your back Xander! You where gone for a really long time I was worried” she siffed the air a bit and looked a bit confused “where were you anyway you smell funny...like a dream or something”

You do know you actually need to be able to see something in order to do any of these games. And I’d consider myself unlucky. *Xander had started to go blind at a young age. He was used to it now, but he still didn’t feel lucky. Come to think of it...that was probably what him and that chick was doing. Man he was tired.*
We’ll talk in a few hours. And it concerns our resident cat. *He knew that Ben should know about it, but it wasn’t right to talk about it out in the open. They would talk about it when they were alone. He sighed at what Ben said about what Kristy thought about him.* Well she’s going to have to learn to stand on her two feet. Along with protecting herself. *Xander would offer to teach her, but he didn’t feel right doing that. He mostly went with his instinct. Plus the little girl seemed to not like fighting or fighters.*
*Finally they got to the entrance of their home. It wasn’t much to look at, from what he remembered, but it brought a safe feeling to those who lived there. Letting go Xander waited for Ben to open the door.*
*As expected Kristy was right by the door waiting for them. Xander walked into the hide out, listening to every word the little girl said.* We had some business to take care of, nothing we couldn’t handle. *He crouched down and smiled at the little girl, handing her the stuffed lion.* I brought you a friend, why don’t you play with this while I go sleep for a little while. *Standing up he looked over to Ben.* Come to my room, and make sure you’re alone. Only come when you can, we’ll talk then. *That was when Xander turned and walked to his room.*
*Getting to his room he closed, and locked the door. This was to make sure that a certain little furry creature wouldn’t sneak into his bed again. Then he kicked off his shoes, placed the walking stick and sunglasses on the desk. Removing his jacket and his shirt he layed on top of his covers and exhailed deeply, relaxing until Ben came.*

Ben nooded when he said they talk in a few hours and it involved there new cat he opend the entrance to the hideout of corse it wasn't classy at all this was a hide out wasn't ment to be found when Kristy ran up to xander Ben smirked, Xander was just fine with kids he just didn't know it. When Xander said that they talk in a few hours “O.k get some sleep I going to go strech I hate this thing” he pulled of his jacket and his wings emety streched to there full sized if it wasn't for it being in the middle of the day he would of gone for a flight.
Kristy was more then happy to get a new friend she held it tight the thing was huge and so fluffy and it smelled of new york and something else she couldn’t put her finger on she was dispointed that xander didn't want to play right now but she let him go to his room after an hour or so she went to his room and found that the door was locked she sighed and went back to playing by her self.
After Ben figured that Xander had enogh time to him self and Ben wings had stopped acheing from being pined down he walked to Xanders room making sure that Kristy was content with playing with her new toy and that no one else was fallowing him he knocked on Xanders door and waighted for xander to get up and open the door so the two chould talk Ben didn't know how much that Xander knew about the little girl or what he wanted to talk to but he understood the fact of talking when no one else could hear.

*Xander laid down, resting. After a while he heard the doorknob moving. He assumed that it was Kristy, but he couldn’t let her in now. Mostly because if he let her in now, she wouldn’t leave, and if she didn’t leave then he couldn’t talk to Ben about her. After a few seconds of trying to get into his room, Kristy seemed to run off to play once more.*
*After what seemed like only an hour of so, Ben came by. Xander heard a light knock and once he made sure that Ben was alone he let his winged friend in his room. Closing the door and once again locking it. His room was darker than any other room when his door was shut but he had lit a couple candles for Ben, so that he could see a little bit, to navigate Xanders “death trap” of a room.*
Where exactly did you find that girl. She has scars on her back, and I think one of them might be infected. *When he held her last night, she moved his hands away from certain parts of her back, and it seemed like it hurt her for him to hold her like that. He thought Ben should know, before anything bad happened to her...again.*
