Vence

Indeed it dose..i am afraid i am dieing.. i belive my first mate has been poisioning me for some time.. and i'd rather not leave my crew and ship under his comand.. ive already drawn up the necessary paper work all you need to do is sign..

you've earned the crews respect and thats no easy feet.. but i think to solve a great many arguments over who will be captin.. i'd like to name you captin and my new partner.. you'll gain half of my buisness's and 2 of my ships.. for your camand.. my daughter will enharret the other half of the buisness's and my home as well.. between the two of ye i think you could both make a fine living..

your wondering what the catch is i supose.. well there isnt one.. ive come to like you over the last few months and respect you.. your an honorrable man.. The captin coughed and looked very ill for a few moments before righting himself once more..

You dont have to awncer to day, think it over.. but dont take too long.. with the ship and my charts of the islands you could search for your sister as long as it takes, and make some money to boot and with that the captin let him go

-he smiled-"sorry Lunicator she isnt for rent i will teach her my self"-he said walking past her as they picked up some grocerry and startted back to th ehouse as they passed they met with Lyna talkign shortly saying she also got a slave one with ears he nods and said so long for now as they walked towards the house and got in side he looked to Tasha-"le tme begin to make a nice hearty meal before i let you go at least"-he said and began to make up a mean stew for her -

Tasha wasnt sure what to make of her new master but he was glad he had stepped between her and the Lycan or he might have had to publicly punnish her for disobedance because she wasnt truly free until he announced it.. but as he was letting her go when they were done eating she didnt thing much about it..

I want to thank you for not accepting his proposal.. and for stepping between us...i have a bit of a temper.. she said looking away from him for a moment to hide both the smile and the embarrasement she felt over that admission.. she was both proud and defiant but she also knew that that quality brought as much trouble as it was helpful.. but more often than not it was trouble..

 

[NickisSora]

-hafter they had eaten he looked to her-"you been around town and people know you are owned i guess you will be ready when ever you are set"-he said as he smiled-"so where will you look first"

 

[LittleSprite2]

not sure, i think the woman you talked to now owns a friend of mine.. i might stop in her merchent shop and see if she sells some maps or something..that would help.. then i i supose find a ship or something..

already she could see problems with these plans the map was a good idea but how was she to get passage on a ship without stowing away and if caught simply resold.. no that was out.. maybe she could steel a small boat but that wouldnt get her back across the sea to her home only to another island.. so she truly was stuck with no where to go.. at least for now..

before you say anyting i know.. that wont work.. i guess i'll have to stay with you for now until an oprotunity presents its self.. if its alright with you that is..

 

[NickisSora]

-he nods as he pet he rhair before relaxing the dishes were all done and he looked at her eyes-"thats fine "-he said as he looked to her eyes-

 

[Erlind]

Vence was about to deny the captain's offer, but he realized something. This could keep him so busy he might never find her, but maybe he never would.
"I don't need time," he told him looking up into his eye, "it will be an honor to work beside you. I won't let you down." He left the captain that night and went out to find the second mate.

He found him sharing some booze and good cheer with his mates. "Can I have a word with you outside?" A bit confused, but happy to comply he walked out onto the deck with Vence. "I've just been appointed Captain along side the current captain. He's been sick and I'll be replacing him should something unfortunate happen. Now, I think you have pressing business in the next port and will need to leave this crew." Vence thrust him down onto the railing of the ship. "IF, something should happen to the captain in the meantime we will be talking again."

Vence

The captin smiled as Vence signed the paper work and it was put away locked in the safe the cobination changed so that only he and Vence had knowladge of it.. in the morning he would inform the crew of there decision.. he watched vence go wearily and feeling extreamly tired found his bunk.. the next Island they went to would be another small one.. the captin didnt think he would live much longer past that if they even made it there before his death..

The second mate got the hint alright but it ment he would have to be extramly careful in his planning maybe his new captin would fall over board one night with a knife in his back.. but not any time soon no.. he would have to bide his time.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha

Tasha still wasnt sure what to make of this man who cooked and did the dishes.. he bought and owned slaves or at least his family did and yet he was cleaning??

his brother entered the room.. well well brother mine.. she is a pretty peace.. finnlay gave into mom and dad and decided to buy a mate humm... he said teasing his brother afectionatly..patting him on the back as he walked around the room.. you know if you decide you dont want her i'd be more than willing.... seeing the look on Tashas face he grinned.. ohh hohh shes got a temper dose she..

His brother was just as strong and good looking as Maxi a few years younger tho but his skin was tanned not white and he had long black hair with blue eyes insted of white with red eyes.. they looked nothing alike in coloring but facal features were simalar.. on a more serious note he spoke to them both..

You'd better get her trained and under control soon or mom and dad will take matters into there own hands.... you know how dad likes breaking in the females....

and for her sake if not your own dear brother dont get any foolish ideas about setting her free..

at lest not yet she's too newly bought.. it would cause alot of hard feelings around here espceally considerng how many wanted to buy her and what you paid....dad would skin you...

 

[NickisSora]

-he looked-"I told you to clena out of her i dont listen to mom and dad any mor ei broke from the familey for there treatment now leave'-he kicked his brother out he had been leeching off of him for ages he wa ssick of it as he looked to Tasha-"Its ok dont worry about him"-he said as he looked to her and went ove rand hugged her-"i wont let any one disgrace you i promise ok"-he said-

Part of Vence's days were spent in the captain's cabin learning as much as he could while part of them were spent amongst the crew building trust and assuring them he would keep their welfare in mind. Some had thought Vence would put his lost sister in front of them and in truth if he had to he would, but he didn't want to forsake what was starting to become a second family to him. The captain held onto life until they made the next port and died the first night there. Busy and distracted it wasn't until their last day there that Vence was able to explore the island and inquire about his sister. He did his best to sound as if he was searching for a lost slave, but it was awkward for him to do so. It seemed unlikely she would be here, but he would never know if he didn't search at all.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha watched him kick his brother out but made no comment about it because it wasnt her place to do so.. is there someplace i can wash and sleep? she asked.. letting him show her where she could do these things she left him alone then.

after bathing and washing her hair she re dressed in the clothing he had given her and went to sleep happy for the moment to be warm, and fed.. still a bit confused at this stranger who had bought hers additude but greatful for his not using force..

.............................................

The shop owner enjoyed Lynx's body and tallents a few more times that night before finding her own bed and telling him she would wake him in the morning to begin work in the shop.. she kissed him good night and went to her own room.. a smile on her lips happy with her purchace so far..

 

[NickisSora]

-Lynx had bathed before going to his bed he looked out the window and saw a lot of people in the streets before he went away from it lookign out he smiled-"Tasha"-he said softly and closed his eyes and curled up in bed he let the soudns of the night and the cool ait calm him-

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha woke the next morning and let Maxi know she was leaving that she wanted to get a look at the island and become a bit more familiar with her surroundings before deciding on a corse of action..

she was dressed and had borrowed an old cloak with hood to cover her hair while she explored. She decided to avoid the market for now and made her way twords the docks a few new ships had arrived, carriing more slaves she thought altho some looked like merchent ships, but sighed for again she had no way to barter passage and stowing away on a ship for a woman was far more dangerous than for a man.

A man could be put to work or killed or both.. a woman had only rape, or death or both to look forward too.. and so that option was out.. she again wondered what had happened to her brother Vence and if he were alive would she see him again..

she moved away from the docks and the ships and started walking back twords the market.. maybe she could discover where Lynx had been taken.. she had seen the merchent who had bought him a pretty elf. Was she kind to him.. would he want to leave with her if she found a way to escape the Island..

She wasnt sure she knew she liked him as a friend, not because they really knew each other but because he was the only one aside from the man who had bought her and freed her who she knew here and could trust...

She bumped into someone then and almost fell the hood covering her hair falling back as she looked up into the mans eyes, and thought she was seeing things or had lost her mind.... Vence.. your alive...????

 

[NickisSora]

-Lynx Looked around as morning came and he woke up and stood sitting in bed waiting to asked to come with her he sat up and cracked his stiff joints the sun shown and the air was crisp he smiled the bed was still warm as he sat there waiting-

-Maxi was worried but with her collar and marking she would be ok for the moment-

 

[Erlind]

Vence had been through the town asking about Tasha. One or two of the merchants he talked to seemed to remember her, but couldn't tell him where she had gone and most people couldn't give him that much. Maybe she had been there at some point he realized, that was at least a start. As he made his way back towards the docks he ran into someone. He was in a foul mood and was about to yell at the cloaked person when the hood fell away. It was his sister, she was here. The gods be praised he thought to himself. Tears forming in his eyes he hugged her tightly against his body. “Tash, I missed you so much, I couldn't believe there was nothing left, I had to believe you were out here.” Suddenly he realized there may have been a reason she had been wearing her hood. She could be on the run escaping from her captors or worse. “Come with me,” he told her bringing the hood back over her head, “I have a ship in the harbor that's ready to leave.” He wrapped his arm around her waist afraid he might suddenly lose her again and began to hurry towards his ship.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha was too stunned and in shock to really pay attention to where they were going until they were aboard the ship and she was seated comfortably in a chair across from her brother.. How did you find me? and where did you get a ship? are you captin?? unable to sit still for long she stood and looked around the room while she talked..

when he had awncered her questions she begain awncering his and telling him what had happened and how she had been captured and ended up here on the island... she also told him of the albino man who had bought her and set her free but with no real means of getting off the island until now her freedom hadnt done much good..

there is a friend of mine i have to see before i leave with you tho, i owe him he tryed to free me when we were in the cages and i have to return the favor if he is willing to go..

 

[NickisSora]

-Lynx looked out the window at the ships in the harbor and two people bumping in to eachother he figure his owner be up by now he sighed and took a seat back at the bed where he waited anxious to work and for other thigns but tasha couldnt leave his mind-

 

[LittleSprite2]

Lyna woke contented and streatched lazly in her bed a smile on her face as she got up and dressed for the day.. seeing Lynx still in bed as she went by his room she told him to get dressed and once he was finnished she unhooked his chain from the wall in the room and lead him out to the living room.

She made breakfast for both of them and explained that she would have him help her in the store today so that he could learn what he needed and in time with her earned trust be able to run the shop while she ran errends and such here and there about the town so she didnt have to close up everytime she left..

but then that was a ways down the road for now he had earned the removal of the chains around his ankles... but the collar and wrist chains still remained.

 

[Erlind]

Vence tried to argue with his sister not wanting to risk losing her again, but she wouldn't budge on the matter. “Fine, I'm coming with you though, I don't want to lose you again,” he told her and hugged her close. It occurred to him that she had been the only girl in his life for some time and it felt strange, even if she wasn't related by blood. Before they left Vence hid a knife in his boot and put a rapier on his belt. “Before we go I need to tell you something,” Vence told her solemnly. “I wanted you to know in case I lost you again ... I'm not really your brother. Our family found you and took you in. We may not be related by blood, but please be careful as you lead the way tonight. I couldn't stand to lose you again.”

 

[NickisSora]

-he looked and smiled as he began to eat and looked to Lyna he didnt speak yet to her and thought about what was to come for him today the sun shined bright and his eyes looked around him his mind racign his breath steady-

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha sat down in the chair again at her Vence's news a bit stunned.. What?.. were not.. your not my brother??.. why didnt you ether of you tell me before?? she asked looking up at him confusion in her eyes as she tryed to grasp onto this new information ontop of everything else..

 

[Erlind]

"I'm so sorry Tasha. I always thought you should know, but Tom made me swear not to tell you. He said it didn't matter that you were family. I don't know where your from our parents said they found you in the forest. Please don't mad at me Tasha."

Vence had never wanted to keep this from her and he and Tom had fought over it all the time, but he'd never had the nerve to go over his brother's head. He knew it was a lot to drop on her, but he didn't want to lose her without her knowing.

"I know its a lot, but I wanted you to know ... in case something happened."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Lyna took Lynx down to the shop and hooked the chain to his caller to the hook in the wall behind the counter in the store, and begain showing him how to work the counter. As well as where differnt items were located and gave him a list of prices for every time in the store.

...............................

Tasha soon over came her shock, and nodded i understand.. i dont know how to feel about it right now, but thank you for telling me.. and for still caring enough about me to come for me even knowing the truth.. for now tho i must go back and see if i can speak with my friend.. i'll meet you back here tonight..

 

[NickisSora]

-Lynx began working stacking the shelves perfectly and remembering the prices as he looked to the items he even mad e afew sales he was enjoying him self one customer came in not fond of cat people began bashing him verbally he frowned at this but made the sale he sighed as a few others came in buying something nand verbally harsassing him he sighed again at each sale not saying anythign but hello and thank you accordingly as he sighed-

 

[LittleSprite2]

Tasha saw Lynx alone in the store and entered she looked around and waited until the last customer left and went up to the counter.. Lynx... how are you? i mean dose she treat you well? you look good..if not for the chains i would have said you looked fantastic..

She ment it too he looked good accept for the occasional customers additude he hadnt received any abuse other than the kind most men enjoyed in bed.. but Tasha wasnt aware of that.. to her he looked healthy clean and as far as she could see he hadnt been beaten.. Maybe she was making a mistake and he wouldnt want free.. but she wouldnt know until she asked..
