Mara Learns to Tame Bears

When I was practicing with the acrobats, I would sometimes sneak off and try to learn to control the circus bears. They were easy to start with because they already were pretty trained. I grow close to those bears, I started to feel and respect the power they have. They listened to me over their trainers now. I wanted to test my abilities. I went to the circus' performance that night, and when the bears came out to perform I started to whisper to them to approach me instead. They completely ignored their trainers and they both came running to me in the stands, throwing audience members off the stands to get to me! Of course the circus tamers were pissed! They started whipping the bears who were waiting for my next command. The bears cried in pain, as they turned around and began attacking everyone in their way of the aggressive trainers. Seeing these animals...kill those audience members and one of the trainers right before my eyes. I'll never forget it. The power of wild animals. No matter how tame we might think they are, they can never fully be trusted. I never returned to that circus again, though I heard from the town crier that the fled the country and had killed the bears before doing so. They had no control over them anyway, they were bound to kill more people.
