As he felt his new master's arm wrap around him the boy kept close to his master.  He felt protected by the man's side, Conner hadn't felt this is so long and being with someone to protect and now guide him brought great ease to the young man.  A few protesters had reached their hands out to try to draw Conner to them, but the boy only pressed his body against the man's as he tried to further himself from<i>these </i>people.<br/><br/>Conner let out a sigh of relief as they got away from the protesters.  The redhead did look back to the men and women on the steps, his thoughts wondering why they tried to fight against such a natural order.<br/><br/>Brushing his thick hair back Conner looked up to his master and smiled to hear what this man was looking for,it was much similar to his master's ideal slave.  Something Conner hoped he was able to make possible with himself.  "I see.  I will be able to do that all master, I did similar things for my master.  I also use to cook for him and make teas for him as well in case you also need me to that as well." he explained.  Seeing the frown the boy thought about asking him if he needed aid in some way before he spoke on.  His pale skin brighten up when the man mention wanting a loyal companion.  Conner could remember being called that often from the first year he became the old master's personal slave up until his death.<br/><br/>Conner would make him proud.  Conner would prove that his master did well in training him.<br/><br/>"Fighting? I'm afraid I don't know how to fight well.  I know defense, my master taught me that but found learning how to fight would be useless for me since he kept me as a personal slave." he explained.  "But! I am a quick learner, I will learn how to fight-for you." Conner smiled brightly, clearly wanting to try to show the man that he wanted to please him.  As they walked Conner did ask questions if allowed, such as how the man enjoyed his meals and if there would be other things he would need done such as laundry or anything else done he would be more than happy to complete the task.<br/><br/>As the arrived to his new master's home the boy looked up in amazement. It was just as grand as his previous home, clearly this man was very well off.  Why didn't he already have a loyal slave? A man with such power should have a loyal slave already.
