She had been pretty good at not being caught for her intense stealing of food and money until now.
She had been caught trying to steal some bread from a local market in the desert town of Mondo when someone had noticed her slip into the crowd like it was nothing and moved to a vendor and quickly reach for the bread,but someone had been watching her and had quickly grabbed her hand before she could even touch the bread and pull her back roughly for everyone to see.
Her hair was a mess and it was clearly she was poor and had little money her hair was long and red and her eyes was the color of a red rip apple.She wore torn shirt that showed her belly and blue baggy pants that had been himmed to fit her better and shoes with holes in the toes.
The man had tossed her in the dirt infront of everyone and had pulled out a whip from he's side belt hooked to he's pants and quickly struck her before she realised what was going on.She cried out in pain as it made contact with her face he used the whip a few more times before a couple other guys had picked her up and restained her hands and dragged her off.
Now she was on a ship shackled cold and wet from the rain.She had been tied to the main mass pole for all to look at she had no idea where she was going or what might happen to her.She might just become there slave or worse for her stealing deeds and all she wanted was a piese of food now who knows when her next meal will be.

For awhile, the red haired girl had caught the interest of the royal prince. Though, he had watched the young girl get thrown in the dirt and whipped then dragged away. Everything seemed to have been playing in slow motion. Glancing towards the ebony haired girl beside him, he moved back into the darkness. Currently, his clothes were torn and ragged to make him look like an average beggar. His skin was tanned like most people in the desert town and his hair was ebony like his sisters. But, his eyes were a rare color of violet. Which, unfortunately made him stick out among other beggars. After all, the only violet colored eyes that resided in the desert town belonged to the royal prince. So, he had to be careful when looking someone in the face or they'd recognize him.
The ebony haired girl that had been beside the prince was none other than his younger sister, the royal princess. They were practically inseperable and did everything together. At the moment, she wore a long cape like outfit that covered her hair and most of her face leaving her brown eyes to be seen. Which, if anyone looked at her right now, they'd assume she was an actual beggar and would probably do what they did to that other girl if they caught her stealing. However, Jasmin moved back into the darkness as well and followed your older brother; Azu. Silently, she followed behind him. The docks not far from where they were resting and watching everything.
Slowly, the pair made their way to the docks. Though, Jasmin had to glance both ways before allowing Azu to cross the empty street. She had to be careful when sneaking her older brother onto the ship. After all, he was heir to the crown and she wouldn't allow anything to happen to him. Upon reaching the old ship, they made it just in time to see the red haired girl being boarded onto the ship. "Be careful, brother." Jasmin muttered to her older brother before planting a kiss on his cheek. However, he wrapped his arms around her in a hug. "You too, my sister. Look after things for me until I return." Azu responded and then stepped away from her.
Silently, he snuck aboard the ship and hid behind a few crates. Jasmin watched his every movement with tears in her eyes. Though, when she knew he was safely aboard the ship, she turned and headed back towards the market.

After awhile of being tied to the mass of the boat and being cold wet and hungry and hurting from all she had gone through one of the shipmates had came up on the desk and smirked at her as he held a whip in he;s hand."Didn't think you was going to get caught now did you?"He asked her as he looked down at the mess that she was in her shirt was ripped from being whipped and the gases from the whip still bleed a little.
She looked up at him with hate in her eye and then looked away knowing what to expect from this guy as she knew she would get punished some more.She winced slightly when he uncurled the whip and tuched the desk with a slight thud.
"Maybe you should think about severing someone to get your next meal then stealing it huh....your learn that now"He told her.

Azu glanced out from behind the crates at the sound of footsteps. The ship had finally left the docks and was on it's way to where ever it was going. But, the sight of the man carrying the whip caused him to tense up, immediately. He saw the red haired girl wince as the man uncurled his whip and let it create a slight thud on the deck. He glared at the man that was talking to the young girl. Without standing up, he decided on what to do. "If you touch that whip on that girl even once, I'll slice your throat." Azu threatened from behind the crates, still not moving. His violet eyes continued to glare at the man, but glanced at the girl every now and then. However, his hand seemed to move to a dagger that remained strapped to his right leg. It was the only royal object that he had brought with him. He had left everything else of importance at the castle where he knew his sister would take care of it.

The men seemed to smirk slightly as he heard the voice from the crates and turned he's head slightly to see who it was he had never really heard the prince before,but he knew what he looked like if he was to show himself without a hood on."Oh and your going to stop me arn;t you...this girl is a theif and will be delt with as such"He said smirking and then looked to the girl."Mmm had a friend back at the market didn't ya?"He asked as he rose the whip off the ground slowly just to tease her.
She looekd away from him and anrrowed her eyes wondering who the male voice was.

Silently, Azu rose from behind the crates. He glared at the men but was careful to not let them see his eyes. His hair, however was covered. "Put the whip down." He commanded, which would have sounded like a snarl if he had been an animal. He stepped out from behind the crates and glanced toward the girl before turning a glaring look back to the men. Unlike most people in the desert town, he refused to let a girl get whipped and beaten. She had only been hungry and unable to pay for it. He believe some people needed to learn to help the poor. However, he remained near the crates. At least, from this distance the man would never be able to get a good look at his eyes.

The man smirked at him"Mmm and your going to make me huh now boy...better watch yourself now I'm not the only one on this ship"He said and turned back to the girl to whip her regardless of he's threats.
The girl looked at the whip and turned her head away at least not being hit in the face again with a whip would be nice she had a nice bloody red mark down the side of ehr face from the first lash she had received she still refused to talk to theses men though she knew they would want to hurt her more just by the sound of her lovely voice and they probably would keep them as there own little play thing if she did she decided she would be stubborn and refuse to say a word to theses rats and hopefully get off this damn boat wherever it was going she feared whereever they might land.

Just as the man raised the whip, Azu rushed forward and grabbed ahold of the end of the whip before the man could whip the girl. His eyes seemed to be shaded, even as he stood up close to the man. "I told you to put the whip down." He commanded again. For a "boy", he was as tall, if not taller than the man with the whip. For a moment, the violet of his eyes could be seen by anyone who was paying attention, except the girl. He glared at the man, anger and hatred flashing in his violet eyes. He hated not being disobeyed, but that's what happens when he dresses as a beggar instead of royalty. His gaze remained locked on the man as he held onto the whip, refusing to let go. He knew what would happen if he did let go.

The men was extreamly pissed when the prince ahd rushed voer to grab the whip from him and he glared at the boy and looked into he's eyes it wasn;t till a second later he realised who it was and wondered why he was butting in with there business he however didn't let go of the whip as he stared into he;s eyes."Why the hell do you care and why the hell are you in our business anyways...your not home anymore boy"He snapped at him.
The girl jumped slightly at the sudden movements and was shocked to see the boy standing there trying to get the whip out of the mens hands she heard more footsteps and jerked slightly in the ropes that bound her fearing for the worst now.

Azu glared at the man, his eyes practically narrowing. "I care because I have seen everything this girl has done. And it was all just to survive. And also, who gave you all orders to take anyone caught stealing out of the country?" He practically snapped at the man. "And, we might not be home anymore, but we are not far from my home. My sister knows where I am and one word to my father and he'll come and you'll be punished." He threatened, his eyes showing the anger within them. He glanced toward the girl and then back to the man. "Now, do as I ordered and put the whip down." He ordered. His tone assuming the role of a true prince.

Azu's eyes practically bore into the man's soul. He listened to the words of the man, but glanced toward the girl behind him. Right now, he wished he knew what he could do to get her out of there. But, he couldn't do anything like that, until they were alone. "She is not yours. She doesn't belong to anyone." He snapped in response to the man's words. Though, I wish she blonged to me. The thought ran through his head. It was almost as though he was in love with the girl, even though they had never talked before and he didn't know her name. He kept his gaze locked on the man's face and smirked. "How about a trade? Me for the girl." He suggested, waiting to see the reaction on the man's face. After all, he was worth more than the girl. Of course, he'd probably die for the girl, if he had to. He couldn't explain these feelings coursing through his body, but they were pleasant. Though, he knew that no matter how he felt about the girl, his parents would probably still arrange a marriage for him, if he ever returned home. But, he would fight his parents on the arranged marriage. He wanted only to marry for love, not for something his parents want for him. As he stood there facing the man, all of those thoughts seemed to race through his head, but he turned his attention back to the present and continued to glare at the man, still waiting.

The man smirked at the thought and idea,but he wasn't about to risk the crew and this ship to hold him as a captive no mater how much he was worth he didn't want to be killed for it.However no one ,but this boy seemed to care for this girl."Mmm I'm not that stupid boy...,but if you can get her to behvor and pay me a good price...then....mmm you can have her"He said with a smile."As your salve"He added.
The girl looked to the man then to the boy~A slave...I don't want to be anyones slave~She thought.

azu's mind thought over the man's words for a bit. he had actually been willing to trade himself for a girl he didn't know, but the man hadn't fallen for that trick. shrugging his shoulders, slowly, he nodded his head. "alright. if i can get her to behave, she's mine." he responded. his gaze shifted slightly towards the girl, locking his gaze with her's for a minute. though, he turned his gaze back to the man shortly after. "how much would you consider a good price, sir?" he muttered, his gaze staring intently upon the man. he shifted on his feet, slightly. "also, if i buy this girl. i want a moment alone with her before i pay you and no one lays a finger on her, but me. i'll do the punishing of her." he stated, never taking his eyes off of the man. his hand, however, remained on the whip, refusing to let go of it until he had the man's words. of course, he had other plans in mind for the girl, but he would not tell the man them or even say them infront of anyone else. he would wait until he was alone with the girl.

azu's gaze watched the man as he looked at the girl. he listened to the man's words words and nodded his head, slowly. "i have the money. but, i will pay you after i get a moment alone with her." he responded, practically reminding the man of what he had said earlier. "now, if you would please excuse us." he added rather quickly. though, he refused to move from infront of the girl. he would wait to move until they were alone.
(sorry for the crappy post. can't concentrate much with all of the people in my house talking.)

(lol it;s ok and thanks btw I can see it hehe)
The man smirked at him and nodded"Ok....fine...,but if you trick me I wont be so nice about it"He said and walked away.
The girl looked to Azu as the man had walked away wondering what he would say to her.

As the man finally walked away, Azu finally allowed his gaze to shift towards the young girl behind him. Making sure that he was alone with the girl, he turned his whole body around to face her. Carefully, he kneeled down so he could look into her eyes. His violet tinted eyes gazed into hers for a bit as he thought about what to say, or, at least, how to say what he wanted to say. A few moments of thinking and gazing at her, he finally thought of what to say. "Now listen. I'm not going to harm you, but you must do as I say, when I say. If you don't, we'll both end up locked up or worse. Do you understand?" He muttered the words just loud enough for her to hear. He was trying to think of a way to save not just her; but him now. If he could, at least, get her to pretend to be a good slave to him; maybe, just maybe; he'd be able to get the men to let them go at the next stop. Then he'd be able to get ahold of another ship to take them back to his country. But, it all depended on how good she'd listen to him.

She wasn't one to really listen to others let alone stare into there eyes.She gaced down slightly when he talked to him trying to avoid he's gaze as he talked to her she wasn't sure if she could trust him or not so far he was nice,but she knew it could all change in a blink of an eye.She looked up into he's eyes finally and sighed slightly nodding her head slightly as she watched as the other man was starting to come back and she glaced back down at the ground quickly.

As she nodded her head in response to his words, it didn't take long before the sound of footsteps entered his ears. At least he had gotten what he wanted from the female. Carefully, he stood up and gazed at the man. Slowly, he took a few steps towards the man; meeting him halfway. With ease, he pulled out a sack of exactly twenty gold coins. "You have respected my half of the deal, so here is your half," he uttered the words. Holding his hand out, he held the sack clenched between his fingers as he waited for the other man to take them. "Twenty gold coins, just like you wanted," he added. His gaze never fell away from the other man's face. It was a sign that he would not back down from anything, and if any harm came to the girl from any of the men on the ship; he'd kill them. It was just that simple.
