'really?' *voice rises with her excitement* 'thanks .. be right back .. from the ground with the skyline blocking it was kinda cool .. but to see it from higher p would be .. like ... super cool' *the excitement is obviously ill contained as she sets the paper down by the door and heads back out to see the sunset.
*humming to herself as she moves to the stairs, hopes that who ever was causeing hte skin to itch is gone, as she doesn't want to have to deal with that just now. 'ahh there it is ... '
*hand extends to the door's handle ... and opens onto the roof and a smile forms as the intensity of the colors hit her with greater detail* .. ' ... oh .. like ... wow ..... ' *jaw dropped and staring at this set of colors andthen the next spot .. 'oh man .. iwish i could paint .. but even a picture doesn't do it justice .. '

From where she sits, a commotion on the street draws Sierra's attention away from the setting sun. A black limosene escorted by a matching Suburban stopped acrossed the street. One of the punks she had seen from the basketball court earlier in the day ran over to the limo as the window rolled down. He talked for a minute before taking a package from the window. He looked around before darting acrossed the street into the building. The two vehicles pulled away.
The itch never goes away.

*observes it .. blinks a couple of times andthen backs away from the edge. thinks to herself ...o0( well .. i guess that this is a much bigger circus of freaks. except i'm the spectator this time )
*then smirks at that comment, before taking another peek below .. wanting to head back to the apartment and out of range of whoever is nearby. then looks about to see if anyone else in on the roof. in case Kristian followed her up.

She's alone on the roof, save a few pigeons.

Back in the apartment, Kristian looks up from his seat glancing through his mail in front of the television. " So was the view worth it?" He asked without looking up.

Kristian smirked and looked up from his reading. " so what's circus life really like? We didn't have them back on the island, so I only saw them on TV."

Scowling at a commotion in the hallway, Kristian half heard Sierra. " Yeah, pictures would be cool." He turned back to her. " Sorry, you were saying?"

"Has to do with what?" Kristian asked, before glaring at the door because of another ruckus in the hallway. " Just a sec, I want to hear about this tiger after I yell at them to settle down out there."
He got up and walked over to the door and opened it. " Hey, keep it down out here, would you?"
"Shut up and mind your own business." Someone replied, followed by snickers of others.
" You're making it my business by standing outside my door." Kristian snapped back, stepping further out in the hallway.
" Go back inside, or else."
" Or else wh.." Kristian never got to finish as a bolt of energy caught him off guard and knocked him back in the room. The door somehow closed itself.

*looks back from the window, still not sure of why she's edgy and developes afrown as Kristian confronts those outside the door .. andthen bites back a horrified scream when he comes sailing back into the apartment .
*moving on instict, runs over to him to check and make sure he's alright 'its okay ... shhh ... don't worry .. i'm alright .. oh please please be alright ... ' *the information about how to do the body checking and first aid seems to hide from her as she smells the singed clothes and warm human tissue 'oh god kristian .. please be alright ... call someone .. oh jeez who do i call?'
*she is now truely panicked as she tries to think about what the ringmaster would do in case of an accident and then shakes her head 'oh jeez .. 911 .. thats who he called .. '
*not at all thinking of who is outside the door just now or anyone else .. she stands up and goes blank as she thinks, and then stammers 'call 911 .. right .. the phone .. kristian hang in there ... '

With a grunt, Kristian mumbles. " I'm okay, they just caught me offguard. No need for an ambulance. Remember, I'm used to dealing with this." He groaned again, pulling himself to his feet. " Guess they aren't just college kids." He sputtered.

*turns to look at him .. and the panick seems to drop as she sees 'you're alright .. oh god .. i was .. oh jeez .. i was scared. ... funny huh? .. me. a kid that plays with a tiger, scared for someone else. what kind of place ... oh its alright. i have to help raise the money to get the family back on the road
*seems to visibly relax as she knows kristian will be alright and then the eyes move to look at the door. 'uhh .. did you close the door? .. i dont wanna know ... nope nope ... ' *the hands continue to tremble a bit now and she now winches as she hears the loud noises from the hallway 'guess this is a case of being deaf? man i hope the limo wasn't the one that .. well .. started this'
