Vi froze for a moment at the mention of high school. On their way to this little theater, the ring leader mentioned that both her and Vandal were going to have to attend a school. What is school like? What kind of things would I do there? These thoughts bounced around in the girl's head as she zoned off and focused on nothing in particular. She had spent her entire life in the circus and with the other carnies. The thought of being thrust out into the real world sent a shiver up her spine. Then, she thought back to what their boss told them about high school. Apparently, there would be over several hundred other people around their age...and they are going to have to learn stuff. It wasn't the kind of fun stuff like learning a routine or a new trick. It was, as the big man himself put it, "practical knowledge". Working with numbers, writing essays, learning another language, science, history, PE, electives....Her vision began to blur and her head felt light.
"...but I have no idea what to expect" Vandal's words snapped her out of her self induced anxiety attack. One look at the floor in front of them told her that they were just about done cleaning up all of the glass.
"O-Oh. Um...Yea. Me neither" she responded with a light sigh. "I'm...actually really nervous about school". It was true that they don't have a lot of experience out there in the real world, but they weren't stupid...at least, she didn't think they were stupid. "You know? We might both be a little worried about this, but we should be fine? I mean, we should be fine as long as we stick together" she tried her best to reassure Vandal.
