Shogi

*jaw clenches* My whole family was murdered. *voice hardens* I won't talk about it.

I'm sorry... you don't have to talk about it

*ears droop slightly* Thanks... for understanding.

Dealer: *leads you to the back of the basement and stops in front of one cage* this is our best slave at the moment, the last one of his kind *points smiling at the cage Shogi sits in* Shogi: you humans are scum... *doesn't even glance at you, already really annoyed*

excuse me mister shogi do I look human?

*glances up at you with a smirk* "Well, you have the body of a human, so I'm assuming you're one of them."

*watches you from the corner of his eye while chewing* You always just... give people things? *swallows, tail curling uncertainly* Without wanting something back?

yup

*ears droop* You're weird.

*steps closer to the cage, studying the hybrid inside* the last of his kind?

*looks away, not even bothering to look at you* yes, the last of his kind... and he has no wish to live, so be careful. *the dealer smiles coldly, as if he's already thinking of ways to use Shogi against you*

*follows closely, ears flat* Don't let them take me back.

*whimpers* I... I am... *voice cracks* your good kitten, mommy.

*He doesn't answer, just keeps running. He reaches the door and tries to open it, but it's locked. He turns around and glares at you again, his eyes filled with rage.*

I know you can talk since your half human

*He finally speaks, his voice low and menacing.* I'm not going to be your slave. I'll do whatever it takes to escape.

*looks at Shogi, eyes widening* woah... a cat hybrid? how much for him?

*looks at you with narrowed eyes, clearly annoyed* Dealer: 5,000 gold coins *grins at you, knowing you'll be willing to pay it*

Nah I’m good what’s the next one

Dealer: okay, how about this one? *points to a cage with a human girl in it, she seems to be around 14 years old, her eyes are closed and she doesn't seem to be moving*
