Akira watched as the Ring Master leaned over and grabbed hold of the girls head.  Then he had pushed a finger against her forehead.  What exactly was this supposed to entail.  Just watching it was clear it was a discomforting experience to say the least.  [color=ed1c24]"Clearly this isn't going to be an experience of sunshine and rainbows"[/color]  Akira muttered as he continued to watch the 'procedure'.

When it came to his turn and the Ring Master leaned over in Akira's direction the boy flinched in anticipating the head grab but forced his nerves aside as the Ring Master took hold. [color=ed1c24]"No turning back now huh?-Ahhh."[/color]  Akira's speech was interrupted, as the Ring Master's finger pushed against his forehead.  Uncomfortable was definitely the word for it, a cold chill running through his body as though he'd been turned into a freezer box.  The pressure, originating from his head was like a throbbing headache that wouldn't subside.

When the Ring Master finally let go of Akira's head he slowly opened and closed his mouth, stretching his jaw as if his entire face felt stiff.  [color=ed1c24]"Well that wasn't very pleasant, but then I suppose everything has a price right?"[/color] Akira then turned to look at the other guy sat at the table. [color=ed1c24]"Good luck."[/color]  Akira shook his head trying to shake off the last of the cold feeling.

The entire ordeal had made him completely forget which card he had chosen prior, as he eyes them once more.  He thinks about it for a few moments, simply staring at the cards.  The girl had already picked a card, rather quickly in fact after the Ring Master gave the go ahead.  Finally Akira decided on a card as he reached over and placed his fingers against the bottom nudging it forward slightly.[color=ed1c24]"This one."[/color]
