文摘Joe peeked around the stage curtain and gasped. “Wow! It’s packed. Look, Matt!” He nudged his best friend, who was busy digging inside an old top hat.
“I’m sure I put the flowers in here,” Matt said, turning the hat upside down and giving it a thump.
It was Friday night, and families and friends were jammed into the school’s auditorium to watch the kids compete in the sixth-grade talent show. Joe could see his mom and dad and his little brother, Toby, in the front row. His sister, Sarah, had gone to a friend’s house for the night instead. Toby was leaning forward, his eyes glued to the stage. He couldn’t wait to see Joe and Matt’s magic act. They’d been practicing for weeks.
“Joe, where’d the knotted string go?” asked Matt, patting his coat pockets nervously.
“I’ve got it here,” Joe said, holding it up. “Stop worrying, Matt!”
Their principal, Mr. Hill, swept past with a clipboard in his hands. “Five minutes to curtain!” he called. “Form a line in the order you’re going onstage, please.”
As he spoke, the stage lights flickered eerily above their heads.
“Ooooooooooh!” The children giggled.
“Oh no!” groaned Mr. Hill. “The last thing we need is a power outage.”
“Must be the wind,” said Nick the Stick, the tallest boy in Joe’s class. “It’s blowing hard out there—a tree branch nearly hit our car on the way here.”
As he spoke, Nick was spinning a basketball around and around on one finger.
Joe and Matt exchanged a look. Nick was amazing at ball tricks. As well as being the basketball king of the school, he could roll a ball down his back and flick it back up over his head.
“We’ll never beat Nick’s basketball routine,” said Matt. “And look—there’s the twins’ dog! They’ve trained her to do tricks.”
Smartie the dog was doing a routine with her owners, Ava and Molly—two girls in Joe’s class. A little further back, Joe could see Spiker and Harry practicing their yo-yo moves. In the corner, another group from Joe’s class was warming up for a gymnastics act.
Mr. Hill looked around. “Where are Leonie and Natalie?” He peered at his clipboard. “They’re supposed to be the first act.”
Mr. Hill looked over at Joe and Matt. “If they’re not here soon, you two will have to go on first.”
“What?” squeaked Matt. “I’m not ready yet! Joe, have we got all the props?”
“Yes! Check your pockets. They’re definitely in there. We already went through everything, remember?”
Both boys were wearing long, dark overcoats with deep pockets and wide sleeves, perfect for hiding things—and losing them! Joe had borrowed his coat from his granddad. It was a bit big and smelled of pickled onions, but Joe thought it made him look mysterious.
“Ta-da!” said Matt suddenly. He produced a squashed bunch of paper flowers from up his sleeve.
“What about the rabbit?” asked Joe. It was one of their best tricks—pulling a cuddly toy bunny out of a seemingly empty top hat. “Is it definitely in there?”
Matt nodded. “Yeah, it’s hidden at the bottom.”
“One minute to curtain!” called Mr. Hill. “If Leonie and Natalie don’t appear in the next ten seconds, you boys will have to go on first.”
