Prologue

The Earthbound Angels

It was like any other night in Egypt. The cold, chilling you to the bone. The sands of the desert covering tracks made in the day. Streets in the city abandoned, after a hards day work under the harsh sun. Few lamps lit in some homes, for those who were not yet asleep in their beds. Right in the middle of the city though, was an entirely different story. This was where one of the liveliest places at night was located, hidden in the shadows of the other buildings. The Bar. This was not an ordinary bar however, no it catered to customers special... tastes. What special tastes? Whores, Dancers, whatever you want to call them. The bars name was "Heaven" and that was exactly what it was for some. Beautiful youths dancing, drinks flowing, men laughing as the youths sat on their laps. It was wonderful. It was always packed, but tonight even more so! You couldn't even find a seat!

For you see, "Heaven" just got four new attractions. Whispers spread quickly throughout the city the day they were brought in, two days ago. "They come from a foreign land" some said. "They are the most beautiful men I've ever seen! Ironic that they'll be working at Heaven, isn't it?" Another told his friend. All were exotic looking, brining looks that had rarely been seen in Egypt. Yes, they did come from a foreign land... but not of their own choice. They were slaves. Pleasure slaves. They danced for other pleasure, but not their own. Taken by men, against their will. Beaten, if any disobedience was shown. No, this was not what they wanted. But what choice did they have? Locked in their new world of darkness, pain, and lust, they were losing hope. But what they did not know... was that something was going to change on this cold, dark night. They would gain an opportunity to escape... to change their lives... but could they take it?

Taking a deep breath, the young man looked at himself in the mirror. Kohl applied carefully around his dark brown eyes. 'It will give you bedroom eyes!' one attendant squealed. A touch of gloss to his lips, making them shine. 'Men will want to taste them!' Long, white hair tousled to seductive perfection, giving the impression that he had spent all day in bed. 'It begs to be touched! The customers will love it, and you!' He sighed, running his hand down his smooth ivory chest, he looked at his costume. Silver bracelets covered his wrists, while silver armbands sat on his biceps, the sapphire glistening softly when he moved. A tight choker was fastened to his neck, it has small sapphires running throughout it. Lowering his eyes to his bottom half, he glared at the silk that was covering his bottom half, well, at least trying to cover him. White silk was wrapped loosely around his waist, coming to rest just above his knees. It was loose, but when he danced it would ride up, sticking tightly to his lower assets.

'I do look exotic.' He thought to himself. 'But this isn't me! And it never will be!' Smiling sadly he looked directly into his reflections eyes. "My old life is gone now. My family dead. My village burnt to the ground. All I have left are my friends. We must stay together... even if it is in this place. To survive... I must do this." Taking another deep breath he turned away from the mirror. A loud pounding at the door startled him.

"Let's go! We have customers for you! You know what will happen if you don't hurry! One of the other... angels might get hurt!" A deep voice snarled from the other side.

Closing his eyes tightly, he wished that this was a bad dream. But this was not a dream, and he would have to face that. Opening his eye, and quickly batting his eye, to let no tears escape, he turned to the door. "I'm coming!"

"Good! I'll announce you! You have five seconds to be on that stage, slave!" With one last angry pound, the Master left. The young man slowly opened the door, and stepped into the candle lit hallway. Walking slowly, as if to his death, he stepped up behind the ruby colored curtains, that hid him from the hungry crowd.

"Gentlemen, Gentlemen! It is my pleasure to introduce your entertainment for part of the night! Don't worry, the others will be on later! But for now, this be enough for you! And remember, you can buy him for the night! Here he is... Ryou of the Earthbound Angels!" Waving a beefy hand to the curtain, the Master narrowed his eyes, daring the slave to disobey him.

Taking another deep breath, and steeling himself for what was to come, Ryou stepped out from behind the curtains, and into the world that was now his hell.
