[IC] Run and hide

[Kidd]

Isabella blinked, eyeing him suspiciously. Is this a trap? she thought, her eyes narrowing a bit. He wasn't punishing her for acting out like she expected him to. "Prove it," she said after a moment.

[Briza]

James extended his hand to affirm the handshake. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Luciana," his large hand, took hold of hers firmly, not tightly, not to extend his strength or exert his manliness, but simply to shake and initiate a reciprocation of her invitation. Before he could continue the conversation with questions such as, Further use? Now you have me curious. or Let me have the slave, you're so kind., another bid inflated the price by several thousand dollars.

A gloss screened over James' eyes. He really did not want to bid over $10,000. The competition was starting to become more interesting. He did not want to make the err of bidding just to bid, to show he could beat Dominik just for the sake of beating him. Did he really want the slave, a male slave? He stared at Alex, noticing how lonely he actually was.

"$10, 050," he said at last.

[Epiphany]

"Goodness..." The price had raised dramatically, making Luciana bite her bottom lip once more, a slight habit of hers. "This is surely going to burn a hole in my pocket." She chuckled lightly.

"12,000 dollars." The girl never spent so leisurely before, and she definitely won't for awhile if she manages to get the slave. Most assumed that she used her slaves for sexual desire, but in reality, Luciana merely used them for housework and company. Taki, her current slave, cooked and cleaned. He tended to her every need, from brushing her hair to dressing her in the morning. With another slave, the work could be split between the two. They were more like domestic servants to her than they were slaves.

Luciana placed a hand on her forehead, "He better be worth the price..."

[Mtntopview]

"I'm done" Dominik said, and left the slave. He had no interest in going above 10k. He started browsing the different cages again, looking for a more ... affordable subject. Most of them were either too weak or not the kind he was looking for, and he sighed at the difficulty he was having. If only he had an assistant or something to do this for him.

Firestorm walked past the slave auction, many of the ones near him noticed he was different from those who were looking to buy. Some reached out, attempting to beg him to set them free, others just gave him a mildly hopeful stare, hoping something would happen to break them free of their current situation. However, he could care less. Unluckily for them, he was of the belief that if they wanted so badly to be free, they should do it themselves. If they were there, it was because of their own weakness, which was no fault of his. He walked by a couple of people trying to buy a slave rudely walking in between them. He didn't care if he was smashing through their conversation. If they tried to start any trouble, he'd pound them into the ground.

[AcetheKidd]

" fine...I'll show you." Klaus stood up and wobbled a bit." Vampire have feelings you know and my feeling for you are real." He didn't pay attention to where he was going and slammed into the wall " where the hell am I going." He said and sat beside her

[Kidd]

Isabella scooted away a bit as he dropped beside her again. "You're just drunk," she insisted. "If you really loved me, I'd be free--not a slave," she challenged.

[AcetheKidd]

" sorry, I would if I could but I'll get in trouble if you where free. Then you'll leave me and I'll be sad." He rest his head on her shoulder." You ever heard... When your drunk you'll speak your mind? Well.. It's true"

[Kidd]

If he's serious, I can use this... Isabella thought. She had no love to give him, but she wouldn't mind using his care to her advantage. "Right, well..if you say so," was all she said after a moment, clearing her throat.

[Taggerung]

Looking at his master he frowned. "Miss would you mind anything? You look peckish." His boxier cracking as he whispered quietly to her. He didn't like seeing her like this. Looking at the slave for sale he frowned.

[AcetheKidd]

' Klaus glances at her carefully. He kinda got mad and sat up." Wait a second...are you trying to pull me leg or something?" He said with hiss.

[Kidd]

"What? N-no--I just don't understand where this is coming from," Isabella said honestly. "You took me off the streets, but I didn't think that'd mean you'd ever love me." Her words were truthful enough, but she definitely didn't return the feelings.

[Epiphany]

As the large man walked right between James and her, she stared up at him and frowned. Though, she knew better than to start something, so the girl ignored it. Luciana turned her head towards Taki and chuckled lightly, "Nothing nothing, I'm fine... Just a little weary is all." She stood on the tips of her toes to ruffle his hair up. "After this we are going to have a meal, and then we will head home."

Luciana stood back down and placed her hands on her hips. "I hope the money I'm spending is worth it..." She muttered under her breath.

[Sheogorath]

"Sold to the little lady!" The auctioneer shouted, pointing to Lucina. He unlocked the cage quickly as the slave climbed out and stood, a loud flurry of bones popping heard as he stood.

"Oh my god!" Alex groaned as his bones popped back into their normal position. He jumped down from the stage and walked up to Luciana. "Hello, my new Mistress, my name is whatever you see fit, most call me Alex. I keep to myself while I work, I can do various menial tasks around the house as well as defend the home against intruders and anything else you require of me." he explained in an introduction he was taught from day one as a slave nearly 7 years ago. He smiled in a detached and fake way, making sure not to make eye contact with his new owner.

Most of them were either too weak or not the kind he was looking for, and he sighed at the difficulty he was having. If only he had an assistant or something to do this for him.

In one of the cages laid what appeared to be a tame panther, lounging around in it's cage and making the ever-so-normal mewling sounds often. It looked at Dominik with watchful eyes, too intelligent to be just the big cat it appeared to be. Getting up it walked towards the bar of the cage, lifting up and scratching at them. Serra wondered if the man would notice her, she was getting tired of staying still, but that was what the auctioneer said to do.

[Epiphany]

After paying the auctioneer she almost immediately placed her hands on his cheeks, squeezing them as if he was an infant. She tilted his head back to get a thorough inspection of his face and check for any scarring or blemishes. "Alex, yes?" Luciana said, "I am Luciana, you must refer to me as Miss. Your duties are to cook, clean, and to keep me company, but the important thing right now is to get you fed. Your duties will be told in detail when we return home." Luciana let go of his cheeks and nodded in approval. "Taki will show you how things are done." She appeared as though she was done speaking, but went onward. "Oh, and you mustn't put on a facade, ever. If you do not like something, do not conceal it from me. I want the truth and nothing but." The girl had gone through many slaves, she could read Alex like an open book.

"So," Luciana cleared her throat, "Shall we be off?"

Dominik stopped at the cage with the panther in it. It seemed intelligent, a trait he often admired in a test subject. "What is this beast?" The scientist asked the auctioneer. He always could use it as a side project for the super-soldier experiments.
((Sorry it's short))

The auctioneer used a long stick to bat the panther away from the cage bars, he looked at Dominik and smiled brightly. "Ah yes, this is a very special female Were. As you can see she is a Were-Panther. Well bred too, and would make a good slave. She has yet to reveal herself yet but I'm sure she is fine looking as well. Very tame when we brought her in."

As Serra was pushed away from the bars she shifted, standing there in the rags of a nice dress. Looking over the man that appeared to be interested in her and holding up her sleeve. The auctioneer cleared his throat and nodded as she shifted. "There you have her. Now if you are in the market for the slave lay down a price, I'm sure we could work some sort of deal out."

[Mtntopview]

Dominik raised an eyebrow when she shifted. If she was intelligent she might be of use to him. "I would put down 2,000 for her" He said. He liked to start with low prices, as it was most logical. If she didn't succeed as an assistant, she could always be used as a test subject. Perhaps she may even be the one he was looking for, the first one to survive his experimentation on creation of the perfect soldier. The possibilities were infinite right now.

[CallaLily180]

Serra wondered if the auctioneer would sell her for such a low price, his face was straight and steady.

The auctioneer smirked, shaking his head and looking Serra over. "I'll except nothing lower then 5,000. If you can't take that I'm sure some others will." He shrugged and acted as if he didn't need the money.

Serra was kind of sad at that, thinking the auctioneer would blow it and she would never be taken in. That would be rough for her.

[Mtntopview]

"6,000" Dominik said, his face not even slightly changing. He was hoping to make it high enough to get the man to sell, but low enough to save the maximum amount of money. He was determined to not spend too much money on this one. This was primarily because he hated putting all his eggs in one basket, as it was a most illogical thing to do.
