Mary Greene, or Madame Fortuna as she was known professionally, carefully arranged her tent for the day. It could be such a bother moving with the circus, but leaving town before people realized that she never actually foretold anything of substance did have some value.

Her preparations finished, she flipped the light on in her crystal ball and waited for business to start, another day of drivel about lost loves and dead relatives, no doubt. A young couple approached the tent before long, the man reluctantly led by his girl.

"Don't bother, sonny. That's a counterfeit twenty in your pocket."
