Royal slave: chapter 6

Shadow's POV

I stared at the couple in front of me. Why did they want to know my real name? And what did they mean. The name my mother gave me or the name my previous owners gave me. They would have bad luck if they wanted to know my birth name. Because i forgot it a long time ago.

"now tell us, boy." The man repeated. He had been asking me for my name, but i refused to answer. And still, they seemed so patient. Neither of them looked angrily even though they had been waiting for an answer for a while now. "and if i tell you that we had been planning on buying you all along untill we saw that little girl behind you." The woman said. That caught my attention. They intended to buy me. Why? "what now?" I asked and looked at them in the corner of my eyes. "we were planning on buying you, but i see that you don't want to be bought. how about we take the little girl with us aswell?" The woman proposed. I sighed in defeat. "shadow." I said and looked down angrily. "oh do not worry. you won't regret it." The man said and helped his wife get up on her feet. The both walked away with that smile of theirs. What were they up to?

Before i knew it i was bought once again. But luckily for me, cream was bought by the same couple aswell. We had been dragged out with chains, of course i was stubborn again, but for some reason the couple had gotten us rid of those chains. I would escape and return to sonic with cream, but i wanted to know why the heck these two were acting so weird. So i went along anyway. Right now we were sitting in an carriage. I was sitting on one of the seats. Cream was sitting next to me and cuddled up to me for protection. The couple was sitting opposite from us. Their were smilling from happiness. I still had no idea why they were so happy. And up untill now they weren't saying anything. And we weren't asking anything.

Now that i was out of this cage i got a good look at them. They were an elderly couple. The man was a dark collored purple hedgehog with yellow eyes. And his wife was a black hedgehog with blue, long, wavy hair and blue eyes. I glared at them in suspicion the whole way of the ride. They didn't seem to mind, though.

Once the carriage stopped i got out and looked at the mansion. It was a pretty big mansion, but i wasn't as nearly as big as sonic's mansion though. Me and cream were laid inside by a few servants. The inside was pretty classy. The servants told us to follow and we did as we were told. They led us upstairs through various corridors untill they stopped at a door. And some servants brought cream to the door next to me. "this is your bedroom, sir." One of the servants said. He confused me. 'sir'? why did he call me that. I opened the door and walked into my new bedroom. It was so big and classy. I wonder why they gave me this bedroom. I was just a slave. A slave who was supposed to be the next in the line for the throne. But i was still a slave. This all was to confusing for me. I needed the answers on my questions. And i needed them now. I needed to know what they were planning on doing to me and cream. This isn't a normal treatment for slaves. I knew from experience. They were planning to do something. And i needed to know what before it was to late.
