They walked up the street until they found a shop that had food, they
stopped to she what kinds of food they had.
-Mmmm, strawberries- she thought, "I'll take a box of strawberries, a box
of green apples, umm, a box of oranges, and a couple boxes of soup."
After taking the boxes from the shop owner and giving him the money she
turned to leave.
When something caught her eye, something silver. She looked and saw a man
with silver hair.
She only knew one man with silver hair, well she didn't exactly bknow/b
him, but her sister had told her about him.
His name was Inuyasha, she learned about him from her mate Kouga, who knew
Inuyasha about four-hundred years ago.
But from what she had heard he had dog ears, but this man didn't, maybe he
was related to him.
She took a closer look, -wait a minute,- she thought, -is that a collar
around his neck? Yes, it is. He's a slave?-
She started to walk closer to him -oh my, he's in bad condition, what
happened to him? - She thought taking a closer look.
Then not knowing what got over her she said, "Excuse me, how much for the
slave?" but the second she said it she wondered why she said it.
"8000 yen" said the man behind the news paper in a cold voice looking over
the top of his newspaper.
"8000 yen?" repeated Arai taken aback.
"Yes, 8000 yen," repeated the man.
"I don't know, I don't think he's worth that much." said Arai calmly, "he's
in pretty bad condition."
"8000 yen, no more, no less."
"Well, to tell you the truth, people around here aren't too found of
slaves. He may never get sold, especially in his condition," she knew a
thing or too about haggling.
The man glared at her, "fine, 5000 yen."
"Done," said Arai.
She handed him 5000 yen and they went over the papers of ownership.
"Now, sign on the doted line here," He said indicating a line on the paper.
"Ok," she replied signing it in her neatest handwriting. "Ok, now you own him," he tied a piece of rope to his collar and lead him in front of Arai, where he bowed before her, "oh yeah, before I forget, there's a word of punishment, so whenever he's doing something bad say it. It's writin down on the papers." Arai flipped through the papers to find out what the word was, there it is on the piece of paper there was the word 'CONSTRICT', "What does it do?" asked Arai. "Don't know, I've never had to use it." "Ohh, and," He slammed two swords on the table. Arai jumped, "What are those for?" "Don't know, I was just told they go with him, he's supposed to be some kind of bodyguard or something." As soon as the man disappeared into the house she turned to the 'slave' she had just bought. He was still bowing in front of her, "Stand up." "Yes, Mistress," He stood up; he was about 7 feet tall. "Pick those up," she said indicating the swords on the table. "Yes, Mistress," He picked up the swords. "Now kneel down." "Yes, Mistress," he kneeled down. Arai reached up to his collar and tried to untie the rope tied to it. -Darn, it won't come undone, fine! - She knawed the rope off the collar, and felt a shudder from the 'slave' which she was taking it off of. "Stand up." "Yes, Mistress," he stood up. "What's your name?" "Sesshoumaru, Mistress," "Sesshoumaru?" she repeated. "Yes, Mistress." "Ok then, Sesshoumaru, come." "Yes, Mistress," he said following her down the street. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Had he just been bought? "Ok, now you own him," he tied a piece of rope to his collar and lead him in front of the young madden, he bowed in front of his new mistress, "oh yeah, before I forget, there's a word of punishment, so whenever he's doing something bad say it. It's writin down on the papers." He heard rustling of papers above him, his new mistress was apparently looking through the papers for the word. "What does it do?" his new mistress was asking his old master what the word did, but his old master did not know the pain the word caused, because he had never used it. "Don't know, I've never had to use it," his old master said almost lazily. "Ohh, and," he heard something slammed on the table. "What are those for," it was his new mistress. "Don't know, I was just told they go with him, he's supposed to be some kind of bodyguard or something." -That must have been my swords being slammed on the table- he thought. He sensed his old master leave, and then he heard his new mistress say, "Stand up." "Yes, Mistress," doing as she had commanded and stood up. "Pick those up," she was indicating to his swords. "Yes, Mistress," he picked up his swords. "Now kneel down." "Yes, Mistress," he knelt before his new mistress. She reached up toward his collar and was trying to do something with the rope. She was starting to get frustrated; -I think she's trying to undo the rope- thought Sesshoumaru. She started cutting it, but he was not sure what, she brushed against the skin on his neck with something sharp while trying to trim the rope. He shuddered, had she meant to hurt him? Or was that just an accident? "Stand up." "Yes, Mistress," he stood up. "What's your name?" -What's my name? None of my previous masters/mistresses ever asked me what my name is. They always just called me slave.- "Sesshoumaru, Mistress," "Sesshoumaru?" she repeated, apparently making sure that was correct. "Yes, Mistress." "Ok then, Sesshoumaru, come." "Yes, Mistress," he followed her down the street.
"Ok," she replied signing it in her neatest handwriting. "Ok, now you own him," he tied a piece of rope to his collar and lead him in front of Arai, where he bowed before her, "oh yeah, before I forget, there's a word of punishment, so whenever he's doing something bad say it.
