A fist pounded on the door of Krystal's home, and two eyes peered inside the window. She pounded again, her heart beating angrily, her eyes narrowed in hatred. She had heard the rumors of a woman buying a slave; and, she despised that. She, once more, pounded on the door, louder, becoming impatient already.
Damn slave owners... there's always another...
She cursed in her mind, then looked up.
"Hey, is anyone here!?"
She yelled loudly, her voice harsh, yet somehow beautiful anyway. She glared at the door, waiting for someone to come, her eyes showing her intentions with ease.

Krystal blinked and then came at the door. She then opened up and stared. "Yes?" she asked kindly. She didn't know what was her ferocity. She was due in any day now. Her belly was sticking out now. Her one hand held her stomach as she stared at the woman. "Is there a problem?"

Intain came up behind Krystal, sweaty and dirty. He'd been working in the garden for Krystal. He didn't want her hurting herself back there. No, he didn't want any harm coming to her period.

"Yes."
The woman replied, her eyes narrowing.
"I've heard rumors about that you have a slave. I wish to buy him."
Her eyes showed her true intentions easily; planning to, once she bought him, the rip the deed up to show he was free forever. However, the woman noticed Krystal's stomach, and sighed.
"I'm sorry, it's been a hard day.. Anyways, my name is Kri, and, if you don't mind..."
She looked up for a moment, as if seeing if she could detect movement. The Arabian Elf sighed, then continued.
"I'd like him to have his freedom."

Krystal blinked, then laughed. "Oh, don't worry! I'm just holding onto the deed, until he learns english and maybe some elven to get around this town. And once he learns currency, I will rip the deed and give him some money to start on life. I'm so glad you came though. I didn't actually buy him. I more of stole him." She said with a sly smirk.

"Astra kystr Englu? Es trei for Arabi, soc du etsa astra tiyed kystr."
Kri smirked, glad of her backround and her native language.
"Teach him English? I speak Arabian, so I could teach him."
She tapped her foot on the ground, waiting for the respose.

Krystal blinked. "Oh... Wow, alright! Come on in. I'll go take you to him." She smiled and allowed her though. When she walked in, (I don't want to sound like I'm godmoding at that part) she closed the door behind her. "He's a really nice lad, though, he is scared easily. I try to draw pictures for him to understand.

Sumer looked up from dusting Krystal's living room and blinked at the girl. Despite their showings of him being a guest, he worked for them, cleaning, making beds, scrubbing the floors. It was in his nature to clean, yet... he discarded the other nature he possessed. he knew that if some one gave him money, or his master money and the man nodded to him, he knew he had to pleasure the buyer. Every time Krystal got close enough for him to feel her breath on him, he'd scurry away, hoping she wouldn't buy him for the night.
But, he had to admit, the swelling in her stomach looked serious, he planned to fetch a doctor for her. See, no body bothered to explain 'birds and the bees' to some desert slave.

Krystal walked over to Sumer and smiled. "Hey there!" She said. "This is a friend..." she started out. "She's going to help you learn english. TAalking... Talking... Learn..." She said.

Kri looked past Krystal, and saw Sumer. She took a step near him.
"Is tra nu har. I mean you no harm."
After a moment to let what she said sink in, she walked up to him, gently setting one of her soft hands on his shoulder.
"Estra mest, nu ont uh Kri. Mi ju lu he and free slaavas. Areto yu safifa hire? What is your name, mine's Kri. My job is to help and free slaves. Are you safe here?"

His eyes widened and he looked at Krystal, then to Kri, "U....uil Huy egwa?" 'You can speak me?'

Kri nodded.
"Fluentsa. Desretan is mi naive languoa." 'Fluently. Desertian is my native language.'

"Wi is wy I amsta heor. I amsta gopon re free yu." 'Which is why I am here. I am going to free you.'
She kept her hand on his shoulder, smiling for reassurance.
"Promito." 'Promise.'

His frown deepen, her dialect was different, but some things were close to his. He looked at the floor, "Sumer hilac...." 'Sumer can't....'

"Ah, stro manes ta es Sumer. Mi paroi es tro cli hiot a bo namad Sumer. I haosd si dif them, and leit im tro freeing da olii slavaas..." 'Ah, so your name is Sumer. My parents had breed a boy named Sumer. I hated them and ran away after freeing the other slaves..."
She smiled.
"Estra yu free." 'You will be free.'

"He was soldado breto I cutd sava him...." 'He was sold before I could save him...'
She looked away, seemingly hurt.
He always had been the cute one...

Kri sighed. Time to lie. She noticed his tail, but let the thought about him pass.
"Irstra boughtaka yu. Yu mes or mi." 'I bought you. You are now mine.'
She waited for the lie to sink in, glancing at Krystal, her eyes telling her to say nothing about it. She looked back at Sumer.
"Istra shoulkor tetoru yu Englisha. Teten yu woi bi free." 'I shall teach you English. Then you will be free.'

Krystal blinked. She clearly didn't understand. She scratched her head and tried to figure out what they were saying. She could speak animal, but she couldn't speak this language. She stayed quiet however. "Well, since you two are talking and I don't understand, I'll just... Sing." She walked over to a couch and sighed as she laid down and began singing an ancient tune, power to summon light around her, which illuminated the room.

Kri watched Sumer. 'Because, I want to.' She spoke in desert, wrapping her arms around herself. 'So please, let me help.'

'Why would you help someone like me, though. I'm worthless...?' He asked quietly.

'You are not worthless! You are a Desert Elf, one of the most strongest. Though you've been a slave, you can run free. It's my job and my life to help those like you.'
