Somewhere else, Alicia was looking for Kelly.
"Kelly? Where are you?"
Suddenly, Alicia heard a voice coming from backstage.
"Okay, Kelly. Time to test your clown skills."
"Clown skills?" Alicia thought to herself. "Could that have been the same Kelly that I know?"
"Okay. Do I go on stage?" another voice came.
This time, however, the voice seemed familiar. Yes! That should be Kelly!
"Yes, go on to the stage now, sweetie."
Who was that other voice? And go on stage? Sweetie? Alicia just had to find out.
So, Alicia sat down on one of the seats in the front row. After a while, a figure appeared on stage. It was a clown girl that looked like Kelly.
"Is this Kelly?" Alicia thought to herself. "No, this can't be! Kelly's not a clown."
"Welcome everybody to the Melancholia Carnival Circus!" the clown girl said. "My name is Belly Kelly and I am here to show you all some tricks!"
"Belly Kelly?" Alicia thought.
"What have you done to Kelly!?" Alicia bursted out, not able to stand it anymore.
"Kelly? You mean Kelly Smith?"
"How... How did you know?" Alicia asked.
"It's me, Kelly Smith. I'm a clown now."
"You are?"
"Yes. Remember my ambition? Well, I succeeded in the audition for the job!" exclaimed Kelly. "They hired me as a clown!" Kelly exclaimed with joy.
"Oh, I see," Alicia murmured.
"Do you want to see a show?" asked Kelly.
"Okay," Alicia said, even though she had a bad feeling about the show.
"Okay, first is juggling," Kelly said as she made three balls appear out of thin air, one red, one blue and one green.
"How did you just do that?" Alicia asked surprisedly.
"Clowns never reveal their secrets, Alicia."
"Hold on. I thought that was magicians?"
"Clowns, magicians, we're all the same! Performers of talent, aren't we?"
"Well, I guess you could say so," Alicia mumbled, still having the feeling something bad would happen.
"Watch me juggle this! Watch closely.
Kelly started to juggle the three balls. As time went on, she juggled the balls faster and faster. Soon, they were so fast that it seemed that there was a white circle drawn in the air.
Suddenly, Kelly threw the red ball up. In a blink of an eye, the red ball disappeared and a portal was formed next to her.
Then, still juggling with two balls, she threw the blue ball below the seat that Alicia was sitting at. All of a sudden, a portal also emerged under Alicia's feet. Alicia's seat fell through the portal along with her.
In an instant, Alicia fell through the portal that Kelly opened on stage and Alicia landed on the stage.
"What? What just happened?"
"I teleported you on stage."
"Why?"
"Let's just say, for my next performance, I need a volunteer."
"Okay," Alicia said as she stood up from her seat.
Suddenly, Kelly took out a pie from her back.
"Where did you get that pie from!?"
"Splat!" the pie went.
"Custard pie!" Alicia shouted. "I hate custard pie!"
"You want me to wash it off?"
"Squirt!!!" water shot out from a bright green flower on Kelly's clothes.
"Aaah! That's too much water!!!" exclaimed Alicia.
After a while, the pie washed off Alicia's face. After the wash, Alicia's face turned white.
"Look in the mirror," said Kelly as she handed over a mirror.
"Aaah! My face has turned chalk white!"
"You ready for the final step?" Kelly asked as she pressed the flower on her shirt.
"Squirt!!!" A black and white liquid shot out from the flower towards Alicia.
"Aaah! Not again!" Alicia shouted as she tried to block the liquid using her hands.
Soon, the liquid stopped squirting her.
"Hello," said Kelly to Alicia.
Alicia smiled and waved her hand back, which was pretty unusual for the normally talkative Alicia.
"Can I punch you?" Kelly asked.
Suddenly, Alicia put out her two hands and made a gesture that made it look like there was a wall between her and Kelly.
Kelly tried to punch Alicia but was stopped by the invisible wall.
"Ouch!"
"Welcome to the circus, Alicia Mime."
Alicia bobbed a curtsy to Kelly.
"Everyone, please give a big round of applause for Alicia Mime!"
