I started writing this story because I was having problems with the lemons in "Silent Shadows" and "Keepers of the Kingdom."
Yes, it is another take-off from one of Liz's stories. This time it was "Slaves."
Anyway, it's set in the medieval times, just to let you know so you're not confused.

Harsh Society
Duo was one of the least respected of lords. Like his fellow friend, his father had died in the attack of the six higher power manors. The peasants had revolted. Somehow they figured out they outnumbered the higher class. They were being severely punished.
Duo turned around, smacking his friend, Heero in the face with his hair. Unlike the rest of society, Duo hadn't cut his hair for seven years. Now it was about to the edge of his boots. Everyone demanded he look somewhat manly so he put it in a ponytail. He had once tried a braid but everyone said he looked like his sister Clara.
"My uncle has sent me a manservant as a consoling gift," Duo informed Heero.
"A man servant?" Heero asked. "Look, at least he could have given you a horse."
"You know how stingy my uncle is. It's a wonder he gave me anything."
Heero nodded. "Yes. I need a new manservant, speaking of which. Rumiko was kicked in the head by my mare. He didn't make it. I don't know where to get a new one, though. He should be young and strong, yes?"
Duo nodded. "Hmmm…Wufei should know. He is my brother's manservant. He seems to know too much for a servant but he gives reliable information." Duo turned to face the castle. "Wufei!"
The oriental boy appeared. "Yes, Master Duo?"
"Where would be a good place to buy a new manservant?"
"In town, sir when the Yamato traders come in."
Duo nodded. "When do they come?"
"In a fortnight, sir."
Duo waved, permitting him to take his leave.
The oriental servant bowed and left.
"Well, that settles it," Duo said. "We leave in a fortnight to get you a new manservant."

Okay, so it could be better but I'm not as good as Liz ^_^
