Please R&R, but no flames. Thank you, and I've said enough, so on with the story.
Chapter 1
"Hurry it up." The guy says, as he throws the girl into the room with some
other girls.
"That guy does not know how to treat women." One girl says.
"Yeah, he acts as if we're dirt." Another says.
"But what can we do about it? We don't have any freedom now that we've been taken from our villages. The only freedom we can expect is only if someone buys us. But
then, that's not real freedom."
"Tell me about it. When's the next auction?" Another asks.
"Tomorrow." The girl who had been thrown in says, as she lowers her head.
The next day...
"Step right up gentlemen. See an auction like you've never seen before. We have some beautiful women that we know you won't be able to resist. Step right up. The auction will start in 10 minutes." Many men start to come to the front of the stage, as the man steps off and goes to the back where all the women are all dressed in different colors, all colorful, long robe-dresses. "I want you all to put on a good show. You know your numbers. Get ready. It starts in 5 minutes." He says, as he leaves.
"He should be in our position. Then we would see if he was so enthusiastic about putting on the show." The oldest of the girls says, as she covers the bottom half of her face, just like the other girls.
A few minutes later...
"And here's the last young lady we have today. This one is a definite beauty. But remember gentlemen, you only have five minutes left. Please come out." A young woman with back-length, dark blonde hair, and aquamarine blue eyes, wearing a light blue, ankle-length robe-dress, comes out. "This one is a prize beauty gentlemen. If you want closer inspection, come on up."
Five minutes later...
"I'm sorry gentlemen, but time is up. Come back tomorrow again." The men start walking away, as the young woman heads back inside. When she gets inside she sees some of the other women who didn't go, because time ran out.
"Time ran out on you?" One woman asks.
"Yes." She answers, as she removes the cover off the bottom half of her face.
"Then you're lucky. You get to make it through another day."
"Hello ladies." The man says, as he enters the room. "I have great news. Some of you will remain here for tomorrow, but most of you are moving. If you will please pay attention, I'll tell you who will be leaving."
Meanwhile...
"And you're moving out."
"Oh, I feel special." She says, sarcastically.
"Shut your mouth if you don't want to get hurt." She glares at him angrily, as he leaves.
"You're new aren't you?"
"Yes."
"Well, you better not talk so much to them if you don't want to get hurt."
"I can't believe all this. And I have to go to a bigger city."
"Who knows. You may get lucky."
"How is that possible?"
"Someone who actually cares will buy you."
"Oh, I'll believe that when I see it."
A few days later...
"That's the second one." A guy says, as he shoves a woman into a lighted room.
"Are you okay?" The other one in the room, who is also the woman with the back-length dark blond hair, asks.
"Yes." The second girl says, as she stands up.
"Do you come from far away?"
"Not too far. Do you come from far away?"
"No, not too far. I'm glad to see another face besides those men."
"When did you arrive?"
"Yesterday in the morning."
"Oh, I see. It's nice to meet you. My name is Hilde."
"It's also nice to meet you Hilde. My name is Relena." Hilde comes over and sits in a chair across from Relena.
"How long since you were taken?"
"Five months and you?"
"3 months, 3 horrible months of being showed off like a piece of clothing. I'm sorry, it's just that...Well, you should know."
"I understand completely." They hear the door open up, and see another girl get pushed inside.
"Hi." She says.
"Hi, what's your name?" Hilde asks.
"My name is Angel. What are your names?"
"My name is Hilde."
"And my name is Relena."
The next morning...
"Get in there." He says, shoving her inside.
"You'll regret this, I mean it." She says, angrily.
"Yeah, right." He says, as he closes the door, and she sighs, but then a voice speaks up from the other side of the room.
"Are you okay? You hit the floor pretty hard." She turns around to see 3 girls all sitting in chairs.
"I'm fine. I've been through worse. Nice to meet you. My name is Adriana."
"My name is Relena, this is Hilde, and Angel."
"Nice to meet you everyone."
A few minutes later...
"Alright, number 1, you're on." Relena heads out to the platform, wearing a dark blue ankle-length dress. "Gentlemen, you have 5 minutes until the bidding starts. Come on up and see this young beauty for yourself."
5 minutes later...
"Let the bidding begin. We'll start the bidding at 500 crouts." Several men start to raise their hands.
Meanwhile...
Hilde, Angel, and Adriana look from behind a curtain, seeing Relena standing on the platform, and see the men bidding. "I can't believe this. All the men bidding look like dirty pigs." Hilde and Angel turn to look at Adriana in shock. "What? I was just voicing my opinion. You girls don't think the same thing?"
"I do, but never mind. But you're right. Right now Relena needs a miracle. And I have a feeling we'll all need miracles." Hilde says, as they turn back to look at Relena.
Meanwhile...
Relena sighs, as she hears the bidding continue, but she doesn't pay attention to the bidding, instead she's deep in thought. 'What do I do? If this continues, where will I end up?' She stops thinking, when she hears fewer people bidding.
"Okay, the bidding is at 4,000 crouts to this man." He says, pointing. Relena looks over at the man and sees that he's looking at her, a savage look on his face, grinning wickedly at him, as he licks his lips. She slightly shudders.
'Someone please help me.'
"The bidding is at 4,000 crouts. Going once...Going twice..."
'Please, please, someone help.' Relena thinks.
"And going--"
"I bid 5,000 crouts."
