There Will Be An End

[InsaneTruth]

Star only cried harder at the man snapping at her. How did he expect a child to not cry? "Excuse me," the voice was smooth "My companion a mage spoke to you the other day?" this man had brown hair and angel wings only black as night.

 

[Ricia]

He looked at him, "No... But I heard from my boss." He said looking at him. Phoenix was trying to calm her down, but he only felt the extreme fear she was feeling.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I am his companion, he will be here shortly, I am looking for two slaves," the angel spoke

 

[Ricia]

"Well... take your pick." He said motioning to 6-8 other slaves.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Dasuke looked at the two "I believe these two will do, I enjoy the sight of the young,my wife bore me a daughter before... passing,"

 

[Ricia]

"Alright... 6400 gold for the little one. The Boy is only 30 gold." He said waving his hands at them.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I see, how much will it be to hold them?" Dasuke asked "Till my friend comes?"


Star was angry she was not some toy to be sold

 

[Ricia]

"Just pay half as a down payment to hold them." He said.

 

[InsaneTruth]

'Alright, 3215," Dasuke said and took out his coin purse, he counted it in front of the man "Will that do?"

 

[Ricia]

"Yes. We'll hold them for you. When should we expect you?" The man asked him.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"before the night," Dasuke said "I work int the palace gardens, and have very short leave,"

 

[Ricia]

"Alright then." He said before going to put the money away. Pheo looked up at the Angel with teary eyes very surprised. Mostly as to why he was getting bought as well.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Be still both of you," Dasuke said "It will not be long," he then took his leave.

 

[Ricia]

Several hours passed and Phoenix tried to keep the small kit from getting in trouble a calm.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki ran up "Sorry I am later then i thought," he said running to the slaver. "my college said he put half down on the two he wanted?"

 

[Ricia]

"Ah.. you're the guy? Yeah they are right there." He looked over them a moment, "We forgot to mention we won't buy back the red haired one."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Buy back?" Soki asked "we dont sell slaves," Soki said

 

[Ricia]

"Good. We can't keep him sold. People keep returning him. So keep him." The guy said. Probably why he was so cheep.


Phoenix stood up, still holding Star before walking over to Soki.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki gave a soft smile "Ashur,,,," Star whined.


"Did she come with another?" Soki asked

 

[Ricia]

"Hell if I know." The guy said waving Soki off. "They come in by the droves."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Do not wave a mage off so callously," Soki said "Not one as strong as I,"

 

[Ricia]

The man gave him a look, "Are you threatening me? I'll call the guard on you." He said, "You have your slaves. Please leave."


"I think I know where he is.." Phoenix whispered to Soki.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki nodded "Not a threat," he said before taking Star as unwilling as she was into his arms,.

 

[Ricia]

Phoenix was so glad that Soki had taken away Star. He let out a very long sigh of relief, like he had just been released from something painful.


The man humphed and went back to selling the other slaves.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Soki lead them away "Wont he be thrilled when the week is up and the gold turns to lead," he chuckled "so you know where the man is she was with?" Soki asked Phoenix
