Circus Stories

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION How do you trust the ground when all you've known is flight? In this breathtaking debut, Leigh Ansell has created a compelling, heartbreaking, and truly engaging story about a young girl used to flying high only to be faced with living life with her two feet firmly on the ground . . . Seventeen-year-old Corey Ryder can't remember a time when she wasn't gliding through the air of Cirque Mystique's big top. As a trapeze artist in a traveling circus, Corey wakes up every day in a different place, buzzing for the moment she can suspend gravity during the night's performance. When the circus pulls into small-town Sherwood, California, everything seems normal - aside from meeting the exceptionally cute Luke Everett at a local diner. But that night, in the midst of the performance, tragedy strikes and flames overtake the tent. While Corey narrowly escapes, in the ashes of the circus pitch lies the only home she's ever known. Repeatedly thrown out of her comfort zone, Corey must learn how to push toward her future without forgetting her past, what it means to be a daughter to a mother she's never known, and how to navigate the confusing magic of first love, even as she performs the high-wire act of being true to who you really are.

Olivia Johnson never expected herself to fall for someone so easily. Especially not Joshua Rodriguez, the local prankster and joke. But here she was a couple months later, laughing at his dumb jokes and sharing cotton candy at the county fair-falling harder than she ever meant to. Everything went wrong after that night. Now Josh is nowhere to be found. He disappeared. Vanished. The police ruled it a suicide and closed the case. Now Olivia's different-quiet, closed off, drifting. Josh had been her anchor, and without him, she was in freefall. Until her mom buys her a new video game for her birthday. A game called the Amazing Digital Circus. She finds herself stuck in this game with a new name and five other players, but gains interest in someone in particular. A periwinkle rabbit named Jax. While trying to hide her scars and solve the mystery of Josh's disappearance, she begins to feel something unexpected for Jax. Something familiar. Something real. The deeper she falls into this digital world, the closer she gets to a truth she may not be ready to face.

It has been 7 years since you joined the circus. You only knew that as you had been counting each day with tallys in your notebook that you hid under your pillow at night. It was like sleeping on the days you had lost,replacing them with your dreams of the original life now gone probably for forever. Your relationship with the group was varied depending on the person but your most interesting connection was with the "Ringmaster" or some would say your "Prison warden" but the group called him Caine. Caine was the AI who looked after humans who ended up in the circus! He kept things in control and sent the gang off on adventures!... ... but what happens when one link in the chain begins to break?

A child finds herself trapped in a crazy circus-themed virtual world. With five other humans in the same situation as her, they are now subject to the whims of a crazy artificial intelligence. I don't own the show, it all goes to GLITCH Productions and Gooseworxz

Another day in the circus and things are going just as well as anyone can imagine. The group are arguing about everything and anything and Caine has had enough. so what does he do? create a fun bonding adventure for the gang to enjoy...or not. The objective is simple, get along, work together and dont complain. For some this is more easier than others especially when Caine adds an intresting twist to their adventure. what is this adventure you ask? A wholesome family experience for our favourite ship, Jax and Pomni, with Gangle as the family cat, Kinger the grandpa, Tagatha the friendly neighbour and Zooble the milk person, delivery driver, doctor and more! Can they make it out this adventure or is the task too impossible to complete? A comedic Funnybunny fanfic.

the amazing digital circus 𝙐𝙣𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚 Jax × Female O.C ₊˚⊹⋆ ---------꩜-------- ⋆⊹˚₊ 'Be careful what you wish for' they say. 'alien' used to be a childhood dream she outgrew, a feeling she tried to drown out with parties, university, and the desperate need to fit in. She spent years perfecting a 'normal' life, even if she felt like a intruder living it. ​But the Digital Circus doesn't care about who you tried to be. ​Now, she is exactly what she used to dream of: a green-skinned, pink-eyed alien trapped in a world of neon madness and glitching reality. She finally looks on the outside how she's always felt on the inside-but being an outsider is a lot less fun when you can't go home. In a circus filled with colorful chaos and a certain troublemaking rabbit, our dear alien girl is trying to stay grounded and sane. But obviously, she didn't count on Jax. ​The tall, purple troublemaker is the only thing more unpredictable than the Circus itself, and for some reason, he's made it his mission to crack her calm exterior. Neli spent years trying to fit in with the crowd, but Jax is determined to make her stand out. In a world where everything is fake, the friction between a grounded alien and a chaotic rabbit might be the only thing that feels real.

In the chaotic, ever-shifting world of the Digital Circus, amongst the shadows of night thrives the secretive, no-strings-attached relationship of our favourite duo Pomni and Jax. But months of stolen moments and intimate closeness blur the lines, and when an unexpected consequence emerges, their carefully defined boundaries start to crumble. As Jax struggles with denial and Pomni faces the realities of what's coming, both are forced to confront fears, desires, and the unexpected ties that bind them - all while surviving the surreal adventures of the circus.

Jax feels a pull towards Pomni he doesn't want to admit. It scares him quite frankly. But the last few adventures have been... on the romantic side. Is Caine messing with them? Jax is losing control over his emotions. And he doesn't want to crack. Not when that could alter his reality. But she might be the reason he does... ___________________________________________ Credits to :The amazing digital circus.

High-functioning is a phenomenon where a person suffers from chronic anxiety and stress internally, but outwardly functions normally, even achieving success and high productivity in their studies or work. They often mask their anxiety with perfectionism, but cannot patch the fear of failure behind a facade of confidence. . '𝄞♫♩♬♪𝄫♫°♩♫♭؂♫♬' ◁ ❚❚ ▷ Hello &l;3 English is not my native language, and I use google translate so sometimes I don't know if I wrote wrong or misunderstood :/ This book will follow the basic story of The Freak circus interspersed with story [Reader] ,so it's goes very slowly . Also some additional chapters and content will added by me. And of course, I wrote it for myself to read because I can't find any more TFC for my dinner. So if anyone doesn't like it, I don't care. Don't argue in the comments with me or anyone, I'll delete it. Slow updates... Also [Reader] in this book will be gender neutral. Anyways, enjoy <3

Trapped in the circus with no way out, Pomni is still trying to make sense of her new reality. Jax, on the other hand, seems perfectly content causing mischief and pretending nothing bothers him. But what starts as teasing, slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Maybe the circus isn't so bad if they have each other... and maybe falling in love isn't so bad either. (By the way, this happens before the 6th episode. So no, they haven't fought.)

Tarot is the infamous Tarot Card Reader of the Freak Circus. She owns the lime tent. Her tent is wildly popular in every town and city they visit. Tarot has a way of keeping things interesting to say the least. She has been a tad bored lately however but luckily she has something to keep her interest peeked. Pierrot and Harlequin have taken an interest in a human which should be amusing to watch from the sidelines. Tarot has no idea that she'll steal their attention from the human. {The Freak Circus Fan-Fiction} {Pierrot, Harlequin, Jester x Monster!OC} Disclaimer: I do not own the freak circus!
