Zodiac Circling

The small town of Oakwood was buzzing with excitement as the annual Zodiac Circling festival was about to begin. It was a tradition that had been going on for generations, where the townspeople would gather to watch the zodiac signs being created in the sky by a group of skilled pilots in their airplanes. The festival lasted for three days and attracted people from all over the country.
As the first day of the festival arrived, the town square was filled with booths selling food, drinks, and locally made crafts. Children ran around with colorful balloons while their parents sampled different dishes from the food trucks. The sun was shining bright, and the sky was a clear blue canvas, making it the perfect day to kick off the festival.
Among the excited crowds were a group of friends, Sarah, Michael, and Alex. They had grown up attending the Zodiac Circling festival together and it held a special place in their hearts. Sarah, a bubbly and outgoing girl, was a big believer in astrology and never missed a chance to visit the fortune teller at the festival. Michael, on the other hand, was more interested in the thrill of watching the planes create the zodiac signs. Alex, the quiet and reserved one of the group, enjoyed the festival for its atmosphere and the time spent with his friends.
As they made their way through the crowd, they heard a loud announcement that the first zodiac sign, Aries, was about to appear in the sky. Everyone turned their attention to the sky, and soon enough, a loud roar could be heard as four airplanes flew in formation, creating the head and horns of the ram. The crowd cheered and clapped as the planes completed the sign, and the pilots expertly maneuvered their planes to create intricate designs within the sign.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of town, a group of teenagers were hanging out in a secluded area near the forest. They were a rebellious group, often getting into trouble and causing mischief. However, they were also fascinated by the Zodiac Circling festival and wanted to witness it from a different perspective. As they watched the planes pass by, they noticed something strange – one of the planes was flying in a completely different direction, almost as if it was trying to break away from the group.
Curiosity got the best of them, and they followed the plane deep into the forest. To their shock, they discovered that the plane had crashed into a remote field, and the pilot was nowhere to be seen. Feeling a sense of guilt for their previous misdeeds, the teenagers quickly called 911 and reported the crash. Within minutes, the police and rescue teams arrived on the scene, and the area was cordoned off for investigation.
Back at the festival, the atmosphere changed from excitement to concern as rumors of a plane crash started to spread. Some people decided to leave the festival and go home, while others wanted to stay and see if the show would continue. The organizers were in a dilemma on whether to continue the festival or cancel it altogether. Finally, it was decided that the show would go on, but with increased safety measures.
As the second day of the festival began, the crowd was smaller than the previous day, but still enthusiastic. Sarah, Michael, and Alex were also back, but they couldn't help but feel uneasy after the events of the day before. They decided to stick together and watch the zodiac signs from a distance. As the planes created the sign of Taurus, a loud explosion echoed through the sky.
The organizers quickly announced that there had been another plane crash, this time during the flight of Gemini. The town was in chaos as emergency services rushed to the crash site, and the streets were filled with the sound of sirens. The teenagers who had discovered the first crash were puzzled as they knew these crashes were not a coincidence.
As the day progressed, more crashes occurred during the flight of each zodiac sign. The town was in turmoil, and the government was called in to investigate the cause of the accidents. As news spread, a sense of fear and panic consumed the small town, and the Zodiac Circling festival became associated with tragedy instead of joy.
During the final day of the festival, the truth was revealed. It was discovered that the crashes were not accidents, but a deliberate act of sabotage. The rebellious teenagers were apprehended as the culprits behind the crashes. It turned out that they had been flying their own plane during the festival, using it to intentionally disrupt the Zodiac Circling flights, which they felt were boring and unchallenging.
The town was in shock as they couldn't believe that such a horrible act had been committed by a small group of their own. The teenagers were promptly arrested and faced serious charges for their reckless actions. The Zodiac Circling festival, which was meant to bring people together, ended up causing fear and chaos in the town of Oakwood.
As the town tried to heal from the tragic events, Sarah, Michael, and Alex reflected on the festival that they once loved. They realized that while it was enjoyable to watch the Zodiac signs in the sky, the true beauty of the festival was in the sense of community and togetherness it brought. From now on, they would cherish the festival even more, knowing that it could have easily been taken away from them in the blink of an eye.
