100 word challenge 3

Twisted gun photo

“The strongest man in the world.” “Yes Dad. That’s what the poster said!” Marie smiled. She didn’t have the heart to tell her son that the man was almost definitely not the strongest man in the world. “Alright Davy. I’ll take you to the circus.” The days past and soon it was time to see the circus. “Excited Davy?” his mother asked. “Yeah Dad! I can’t wait!” They walked into the big top tent. There was a big crowd. Davy waited impatiently for the strongman. Part of the man’s act was twisting the end of a gun. Marie had to admit that the man was good. As they were leaving they heard a gunshot. There was a crowd leaning over something. “Killed with his own gun.” Someone said. Marie hurried Davy away.
