I wish you didn't have to see that baby .. I'm sorry.

Dot slipped from the apartment unnoticed with Steele at her side. She looked down at the husky puppy a smile before skipping off toward the lake. It was one of her favorite places to go, it was a place where no one could bother her. No one could hurt her. She felt safe there. The small child dodged through the people that were cluttered along the paths heading to different shows. Now that she didn't have to work at Grandmothers the girl found herself watching the highflying acts still envying those who could fly and those who couldn't. But today she didn't want to watch the acts. She wanted to be alone.

Lately she had been missing her hopper more than anything. The man that took her had explained to her that her father was dead. He was gone for good. She didn't want to believe it. She already lost so many people in her short little life why did she have to lose him to. The girl sat on the edge of the lake and kicked her feet in the water. The child looked over at the puppy and giggled a little when he licked her face. She then looked into the water and a small frown formed on her lips. Why'd he have to take that job, why'd he have to go and get himself killed. It wasn't fair. A tear slipped from her eye and she swiped at it shaking her head. He left her alone again. He promised he wouldn't do that as much but he did and now he was dead. 

With these thoughts Dot began to get angry and kicked the water shaking her head and standing up. He left her alone. Atta left her alone. Duke left her alone. Shenzi and Simon weren't around as much anymore. They were leaving her alone. Everyone seemed to be leaving her alone. What had she done? Was she bad? That was the only conclusion in the little hear of hers. She must have been bad some how and now no one wanted to be around her. She let a few angry tears run down her cheeks as she moved around the lake. She thought she had been being good for the past few months, she hadn't threatened anyone, hadn't killed anyone, it was all going so good. She finally found her real mommy. She had her Momma and her Papa. Her Hopper had been spending time with her. And then it all went to hell. Everyone began to slowly disappear on her. "Why. Why can't they stay." She whispered to herself. "Can't you just bring him back. Please. I'll be good." She said staring into the water.

Dot was moving down the walk way to where she was staying at the time. She rubbed her eyes smearing the little dirt on her cheek a bit more. She coughed and wrapped her arms around herself as she blinked her eyes. If she could she would fall asleep right there and then. A small shiver ran up her spine when she heard someone stepping behind her and her pace sped up a little. She swallowed and looked around a small whimper escaped her lips. This was starting to feel very familiar. Too familiar to the seven year old. "Pl-please go away." Dot begged the invisible footsteps.

Just as she was about to reach the front door a man in white scrubs stepped in front of her his arms crossed over her chest. Dot's eyes widened and she quickly tried to turn the opposite direction but a women stepped in front of her this time same position as the man. Her scrubs were a blue color  though. She tried the other two directions as well but the same thing happened and soon she was surrounded by four adults in scrubs. "Go away!" She screamed shutting her eyes tight. "Help! Someone help me!" She said letting out a blood curdling scream. 

The first man stepped forward and shook his head. "Shush child." He said his voice very husky and low. She finally realized where she had seen him before, he was from that hospital her first foster family tried to take her to. The mental hospital. She had also seen him stalking around the circus for the past few days he seemed to be watching her but she never really paid attention to it until now. She swallowed and a tear slipped down her cheek as the man crouched down. "Now Dot we got a call that you were doing very very bad things." He said his voice cooed. She blinked and shut her eyes refusing to say anything or look at him. "I thought we had told you that if you did anymore bad stuff you'd have to stay at the hospital." She shook her head and decided to look at him. She tried to speak but she couldn't find the words to say. The man looked at the women behind dot and gave a nod of his head. "Now little one since you were bad I'm afraid you're going to have to come and spend some time with us. Lilly here is going to give you something to make you sleepy just for a little bit. Just until we get to the hospital." He said but before Dot could protest the women grabbed her arm and stabbed a needle into her arm and the liquid was injected into her body.
