Chris knew it would one hell of a day when he woke up to Aviva saying there's already a line of people outside the circus waiting for it to open. He figured he'd have to go help the others get the crowd away from the circus so they can set up. He got up, brushed out his hair and got ready, then he headed out to help with crowd control.
he heard Martin mutter when they saw how many people were there hundreds probably, it would take a while to get them away from the circus. Aviva got onto the loud speaker and said through it at the crowd
"Attention to the crowd, please either go back to your cars or leave, we need space to get ready for the shows. Please stay within the areas your aloud in and do not provoke the animals in their pens please!"
Martin and chris signed knowing the announcement helped a lot, the crowd dispensersed and went to their cars, some protested but it fell under deaf ears. Koki called for the brothers
"Martin, Chris can you come help me feed the animals please!" Chris yelled back
"Yeah we will be there in a moment Koki!"
Martin nodded in agreement and went with Chris to the animal pens, the animals restless and hungry as always. Martin stepped into the wolf pen anf got tackled by the energetic pups. Martin chuckled and scratched behind the pups ears. Chris and Koki burst out laughing. Martin groaned knowing Chris was going to tease him mercilessly all day.
Zach and Donita helped Aviva set the performances up: juggling and tightrope sets, Donita had her manaqins help set it up as well (they all still have their gears and tech and only use it when needed or for shows) Koki's voice rang out from the radio
"How the sets looking guys? Me, Martin and chris got the animals fed." Aviva grabbed the radio and clicked the button and said into it.
"Yeah, the sets are almost ready, Gaston is making the food as we speak." Aviva grinned knowing they were all on schedule.
"Good, the circus opens in an hour so I'm gonna send martin and chris your way to warm up, ok?" Koki radioed back
"Alright, thanks Koki!" Aviva turned to Zach and Donita and sad
"OK guys, are the sets ready?" Zach nodded
"Yep, secured and ready for the brothers."
*a few moments later the 2 brothers ran over. Chris hugging Zach while Martin hugged Aviva. The 2 brothers pulled away after a few moments and stepped back. Donita asked
"You 2 ready for practice?" The brothers nodded.
Koki finished up with the animals early so she started to work on checking the animals health, as they had already been fed. She sat by the tigers checking for any splinters in their paws, after a while she finished and went to go check and make sure the crowd was still under control. She walked out to the front and saw the crowd was still being patient or well somewhat, she went back inside to the others, and said
"How's practice coming?" Aviva jumped, startled by koki's appearance and replied joyfully
"It's going great! We should be ready in time for the shows!"
~~~~~~~timeskip to after the shows (to lazy to write into detail what happened)~~~~~~~~
Chris and Martin, both exhausted and their limbs feeling like jelly walked back to their rooms after the long shows both collapsing into their beds when they enter, Chris falling asleep almost instantly, Martin taking a little longer as always.
Koki and Aviva went out back to get the animals fed and to bed. Koki rounded up the wolves and the pups to their pens while Aviva got the tigers and the parrots into their pens tossing their evening dinner to them, she felt a pain in her hand and realized she cut her arm on a nail sticking out of the fencing she hissed in pain and put a bandage on the wound. Koki made sure it didn't get infected after they tended to the animals.
