A strange looking man with a lantern and a funny hat...

You look and see a short little man with bright red clothes and a funny hat come out of the trees with a lantern and use your arm to push emily behind you...

Funny hat man: “ah you just washed up on the best beach in the world to wash up on. Cmon i think ive got a place you two girls can stay.”

You look at emily whis making a confused look at you (who would be makinguch the same look if you had a face). You both follow the funny hat man to a fire seeing other funny people around like a two headed man in a modified suit vest a bowler hat and a fedora (hats going L to R), a man as big as you in overalls with a red plaid shirt with a red watchcap, and a pretty red haired lady in a leotard with black and white spirals you didnt like looking at who wasn’t really inherently weird but Before she turned to you, her head was looking behind her and her arms and legs were twisted backward before turning it all forward to face you.

Saul(funny hat man): “im saul and these fine folk are barry ‘n larry, carlson, and greta (respectively). Troupe. These two are our new edditions if they care to stay!”

You both nod your heads fearing getting in trouble at the lab.

Saul: “well then its settled! Welcome to the show! Whatre yer names?”

You both cant talk so you just draw your names in the dirt like the scientists taught you.

Saul: “good god this emily girl has the better handwriting than i do... and mah- moan... mo-nah?” Emily writes your name under where you wrote it with her claws “Mona ah well at least one of you can write. so ill just let greta show you to your tents and well show you the ropes in the morning!”

Greta stands and gestures for you to follow her as she leads you to a sizable tent with a wood base and a large stuffed cloth bed with a light blanket. She gestures for emily to follow her but she clings to your arm wanting to stay with you

Greta: “ah i see you two are attached at the hip like bare and lare feel free to get comfy, yah both got a big day tommorow.”

As greta walks off you lie down on the bed holding emily in your arms...
