ok...another random idea popped into mai head again...-.- *sigh* this takes place during slavery times in america. probably more than one chapter. :)
"I heard this boy is very valuable!"
"Why?"
"It's said he can do many amazing things! He's been every kind of slave america has to offer!"
"Wow! He must be worth a fortune!" Ms. Winry Rockbell, the only child in the Rockbell family overheard this conversation. She and her father were searching for her first slave. She had turned 15 just yesterday and as a present will receive a personal slave. Her family was...complicated. They had slaves, but treated them like servants or sometimes family. Her family was a mild abolitionist family, that would be the best way to describe it. Then the man on the platform began to speak.
"Ok, here's the best slave we have on the market today! Come up here boy!" A short teenage boy then slowly made his way up the steps to the platform. He was, surprisingly, white, though well tanned, and had golden hair tied in a ponytail and wore dark brown pants with a tight black shirt and black boots. How unusual, since it being so hot. His hands were stuffed into his pants pockets, his hips thrown forward a bit. He raised his head to reveal half lidded, bored golden eyes, a slightly darker shade than his hair. His mouth was held in a tight frown as his eyes scanned the crowd. This would be his sixth time being sold. "This boy has been through it all, from working the fields to the home to even being a sexual slave! He works efficiently in all areas and is said to be a prodigy in everything! He can play any instrument and fix any machine!" The crowd oohed and ahhed at the boy, clearly impressed with him. They can all go to hell, he was never meant to be a slave, quite the opposite. "Tell them your name." The man said. The boys shifted his weight to his other leg.
"Name's Edward." The boy spoke, purposely putting a low class sound in his voice, annoying the man. Just then someone in the crowd spoke.
"If he's so wonderful why is he being sold! Hasn't he been sold before? Why is he here then!" The man shook his head and frowned at the boy, who gave a uninterested glare in his direction.
"His only issue is his personality, stubborn and harsh, most tend to call him." The man spoke slightly aggravated, as though the boy could stop being himself.
"I'll pay 300 for him!" someone called out. then the wars began.
"400!"
"600!"
"650!" everyone paused, not wanting to bid higher.
"1000." A female voice called out. everyone turned to see Winry walking to the front. She set her hands on the platform and looked intently at the boy. The boy, for once, showed mild surprise, his eyebrows arching and his eyelids lifting slightly, though still lidded. His mouth opened to a small O and he simply stared back. She was cute, he thought. She wore her hair down, it cascading down her shoulders onto her simple red dress. Nice color, he added in his head. Her eyes were a shocking blue as they bored into his.
"So sorry, but a woman cannot buy a slave." The man said, spitting the words out. Then her father approached. He had slightly long hair, reaching just below his ears, it flared out randomly and his blue eyes were narrowed in annoyance.
"No need to be rude, i shall buy him." Interesting, i wonder how they will be? Edward wondered. Hopefully no torture this round, I've had quite enough of that. The mnan nodded to the father and the father passed the money up to him. Edward nodded slightly before stepping from the platform. Winry turened and smile at him, having to look up slightly.
"Don't worry, you'll like it here." Edward gave a cocky half smile in return.
"We'll see won't we miss?"
there's the first chapter. i don't know if i should continue this...-.- i don't think anyone will enjoy this much...if you are reading this story review and tell me if I should ok? thanks :)
