Dawn came slowly and Ren was the first to wake. He yawned and stretched quietly, eating some fruit before quietly gathering his things into his bag. Once done he walked over to the sleeping girl, untied her from the boulder and put her on his back. He didn't mind when his catches slept while he traveled, it made everything so much easier for him.<br/><br/>Once on the road again Ren enjoyed the coolness of the morning and the smell of the crisp morning dew dripping from the leaves of the trees and grass. Even with Sequoia on his back he seemed to still step quietly. It would take at least until midday before he made it home so he can go to the sales to sell her, and perhaps pick up a slave for his own there.<br/><br/>When the sun was high in the sky and the girl was finally awake, they had reached the edge of town making Ren smile. Other taurs looked to him as one of the best slave hunters, and they always complimented him for his catches as he passed by others. Walking through town he felt proud as taurs would look at him and speak to each other excitedly with his new catch on his back. Smiling seeing the auction was on today, he went into the back where there were hundreds of potential slaves waiting either in cages, bound by chains on walls or hanging from the roof or being forced to lay on tables strapped down tightly. The taur who ran the place was a okapitaur, she herself owned three slaves to keep her home running and always threatened them a worse master to serve if they stepped out of line.<br/><br/>She approached him with a folder in hand. "Hello Ren, another catch huh?" She asked with a smirk. "Not quite the human you were looking for though I'd imagine."<br/>Ren smiled as he untied her from his back. "Nah, it is all good. She's worth more than you think," He said gently. "She's a seer."<br/>The okapitaur widened her eyes. "Really? Wow...I can bet the amount of taurs who want her," She chuckled. "I'm guessing that sphere helps her somehow." He nodded. "Alright, I'll write you a nice big check. Put her over there, those binds will keep her from using any abilities."<br/><br/>Ren nodded as he forcefully pulled Sequoia along to a pair of chains on the wall. He untied her wrists only to chain each wrist with a cuff which was surprisingly light compared to what some of the others had and untied her ankles. He smiled at her. "Nice knowing you," He said, turning to face the okapitaur. "Oh yea, she calls herself Sequoia." The taur nodded and handed him a check, his eyes go wide and mouth dropped. "I might just get a slave with this." He makes his way to the auction room and takes a place in the VIP as the auction would begin shortly.
