Puppets.

The crowds for a moment are in silent as every noble is analysing every aspect of great potential .

Marcus is nervous but not for himself because the only thing he thinks about is his sister .

--Now now ,would you look at that the pig had hidden gems at his chambers .

--Sir?

--Look at them not everyone but 7 have potential for the upcoming task .

An old man speaks where he seats is in the most very, very important people he is the first commander of the knights vardov serving the Duke of the west Latvya kings .

The man beside him is his surbodinate .

Also seating on the above seat is man known for his silence , the butler john who is under the commands of the north duke jacobs Yankuva .

Both of the two people are known for their houses as for the Latvya house is well known for its killing of dragons.

In the past the first patriach made a contract with a dragon but something more was felt as the foought against other dragons a much bigger feeling was born .

As they fell in love with each other and here the Latvya family of the Red dragons blood running through there veins .

On the other hand the Yankuva house is known for its hunting and fighting against the demons of the underworld .

As there first patriach was blessed by the god of war kratos .

Each of them are friends as in the past both houses joined hands in the war between man vs beast and demons .

A war that brought massacre,chaos and memories in which will never be forgotten .

There are other house holds which have the ranking of a dukedom the others are 3 more in which in further we will come to know as they are also as powerful as the orther .

The first reason why they both have appeard at todays auction. Is none other than to find hunting dogs ,which are both talented and are to follow any commands from it's master .

In the two auctions they were also here but they didn't find any geniuses they were searchingfor , but today is surely different .

As the bid for the slave begins John lifted his wooden pingpong handle rising it above his words were .

--For the 7 of them 5 million gold coin .

The fat man was astonished by this but for him it was about the money .

--"Going ones..." (a pause for any final bids)

--"..Going twice..."(A second , shorter pause)

--"then it's ...sold !"

John looking at vardov asked him .

--why not go toes to toes for this ?

He replied with a smile and said .

--You make puppets but we don't need puppets for the future of our household .

Staring at him in silence John said nothing .

The children are taken back In the chambers but this time a different knight with black armor is there as he is one of the knights of Yankuva household .

The children's that were sold were .

Regulus , Marcus , Jane her sister , the blind girl Jezebel , lavington and the other two .

John appears before them looking at them again but still saying nothing .

Ordering the knight he tells him to put them inside the carriage but to also remove the chains .

A one week trip no talking as for the children while in the carriage they continued to know more about each other and just as the days passed .

Now the carriage they were in wasn't like the other carriages this one had windows .

It helped the watch another beautifull scenery as the scenery was like summer but on the fifth day they enterd the northern as they witnessed .

Something that was out like a fairy tale as the atmospehere of both summer and winter separated the both areas of north and east .

Using animal skin which still had blood they were given as using them against the cold .

But something was much more beautifull was the people in the northern territory they were much more happy than the ones from before .

As everyone in the road path bows in respect as the butler and the knight pass .

Then there it was the biggest fortress known the third to rival both the holy fortress and the kingdoms castle .

Having a huge garden like two football pitch . Statues of angelic and of the patriach standing in the middle of them all .

This is the best thing they have seen so far as they reach it's gate a huge knight appears carrying a war hammer on his left hand .

He bows in respect his eyes are that of a hunter as he gazes towards the carriage.

The young ones are terrified of him .

The carriage opens and John decide's to talk to them .

--Litsen well ,none of you for now will have the right to enter the fortress ,but everything as for food and other needs will be given for today and tomorrow only after that you will be given further instructions .

--Any questions ? .

He asks .

Marcus lifts his tiny hands and asks .

--Whats type of work we will be assigned to sir ?

--...that will be known in the next day to come for now rest because your body needs it and also tomorrow you may do as you wish .

--And where are we to be taken to ?

The blind girl asks .

--You will see . Now ! Shall we , I will see you on the next day .

John left them at the entrance and after that the huge knight with the war hammer was left to guide them the down side chamber an hour walk as the reached their they found a not big nor small mansion .

Going inside there were 12 knights all of them wearing silver armors then again it was different from the others but what they didn't know is that the knights were all ranked .

In a sudden Regulus saw from a distance not in the house but from the trail behind a woman beautiful, gorgeous cute she had it all her hair was long white as a snow shining like Galaxy were her cat golden eyes .staring at them intently the girl smiles gently to regulus and on her right was someone even regulus felt his presence from a far a swords woman in protecting of the girl who seemed their age .
