So um....yeah.....depressingish chapter? Kinda disturbing too. Don't worry though. This is the worst chapter(maybe) of the book. Don't want it to get too horrid.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You wake up to the feeling of being kicked. "Wake up animal" the person, who you assumed kicked you, demanded. He kicked you again, causing you to groan. You opened your eyes to see a man in front of you with a smirk on his face. "Finally up eh?" he asked as he bent down and grabbed what looked to be a leash and started dragging you somewhere.

Him dragging you around like you were nothing hurt, you were treated like nothing but a dog. Though in his eyes you were probably beneath even that of an animal. "This is going to be a real fun auction" he muttered under his breath.

Your heart quickened at that comment. Auction? Auction for what exactly. Could it have been for you? The people who massacred your clan did mention that you would make them a lot of money. You had to find a way out. You did not want to be sold to some person who would treat you like crap.

You started struggling, you realized that you were completely wrapped in rope and there was no way to escape, however that didn't stop you at all. You wanted out, you will not fall victim to whatever was going to happen. "Hey. Stop that you brat" the man said and started kicking your side.

You would not stop though. What was happening was wrong, and shouldn't be happening to you. You had to get out, find someone who would help you. "damn you" the guy muttered as he kicked you in the side again, hard. You couldn't handle the pain, so you stopped struggling with tears in your eyes. "That's what I thought" the male grunted and continued dragging you to wherever he was dragging you.

You tried to think of happy thoughts as you were being dragged. However, anything resembling happiness in your life was taken away from you, your clan, your family, Pairo. Just thinking about them brought you to more tears. Than the image of Kurapika flashed in your mind. You widened your eyes, remembering that Kurapika was not there when the Kurta were massacred. You smiled through your pain. 'Well. At least someone from the clan is alive and well. Maybe if I can live through this terror, we'll be able to meet again' the idea of meeting your best friend again brought you hope, and comforted you.

"Okay brat" the man said. He forced you to stand up and pushed you onto what looked to be a stage. "Have fun" he said sarcastically with a chuckle.

You shivered at his complete uncaring towards you. You didn't understand how anyone could be that horrid and uncaring towards others. The Kurta would never treat anyone like that.

Another man came up and grabbed you by the shoulder forcing you into a chair that was sitting in the middle of the stage. That was when you noticed it. The amount of people in the room, looking at you with hungry eyes. You shivered again, the gravity of the whole situation getting to you. You needed to leave, you could not experience this. It wasn't right, you were just a kid after all.

"And now for our special item" the man who forced you into the chair said with a happy smile. You gagged at the idea of being treated as an object, as less than everyone else. He then pointed at you and said "this here kid, is the very last of the Kurta. If you want a set of the real eyes here is your only chance of getting it" He grabbed a hold of your hair and pulled your head back forcing you to face the audience. He took out a knife and put the sharp end near your temple. You figured what he wanted to do, he wanted you to show your eyes to the crowd, he wanted to show proof that you were a Kurta. If you had been in the fighting mood, you would have downright refused. However, you lost your will, and you were not in the mood to get another beating. You activated your eyes, gasps filling the room as you did so. "That's a good animal" the man whispered in your ear and stood up straight. "Now then, let's start the bidding."

Then bidding started. You weren't paying attention to anything that was being said. All you did was watch as people kept raising their hands. You retched every time you saw another hand raised. 'These people are scum' you thought with a grimace. You knew how horrid people can be towards the Kurta, the clan being forced into isolation was proof of that, but you never realized that people could be that depraved.

"And sold for 50 billion jenny" the announcer said, sounding so happy at the thought of a child going through this.

You were then pushed off the stage and into a nearby room, probably to wait for your owner. You didn't think you'd be able to get used to that. You'd definitely find some way to escape when given the chance, you were not going to live the life of someone else's slave.

The door opened. Your heat started beating, wondering what kind of person bought you. You had a guess that the person was some sicko but you had some semblance of hope that maybe not.

A young girl, probably around your age stepped into the room. You were confused, why was a young girl walking around the area. Isn't it dangerous for people like her? A man stepped into the room behind her, muttering "50 billion jenny, if she wasn't important to my business I wouldn't have even bothered" so he was the person who bought you, but why the little girl?

"Hello Kurta" the girl said standing in front of you with a bright smile. You just stared at her with wide eyes, wondering what she was trying to accomplish. She stared for a moment, before her eyes travelled to the rope around you. She glared at the man behind her and pointed "Daddy. Have this rope removed at once"

He stared at you. "Are you sure honey? Wouldn't it be best to keep her tied so she wouldn't escape?"

She pouted and looked at you again. "You wouldn't escape right?" Honestly, that's what you were planning, but you weren't sure if you wanted to anymore. The man behind her seemed scary enough and normally rich folks have bodyguards. You shook your head. She glared over at her father again and pouted "see? The Kurta isn't going to escape"

He sighed and signaled someone from outside to untie you, confirming your earlier suspicions of a bodyguard. Both the father and the bodyguard started at you warily, but the girl smiled again, grabbing a hold of your hands. "My name is Neon. Do you have one Kurta?"

You weren't sure if you should answer. You honestly didn't know what this girl's deal was. Obviously, she was the one that wanted you bought because she seemed to have taken the most interest in you. She was enigma that's for sure. Well, if she was going to be your master, you had to answer right? You nodded and said quietly "it's...uh...[First Name]"

"[First Name]?" she asked. You nodded and she smiled. "That name fits you. We're going to be great friends [First Name]"

Friends? You thought in your head, or at least you thought you did. You actually said it out loud.

She giggled. "Well of course silly. Just because I bought you doesn't mean we can't be friends" Friends are bought, you amused to yourself as you said that. "Besides, this will be good for both of us" 'How?' was the only thing you could think as she said that. "You'll turn your eyes scarlet whenever I want, and I'll give you anything you want as well. All you have to do is ask and you shall receive"

That sounded like you were more her pet than anything else. However, it really didn't seem so bad. She seemed to like you well enough and as disgusting as the whole idea was to you, you were at least glad that it was Neon's family who got you, over say a complete sicko. So there's the silver lining in that scenario. If you played your cards right you could maybe get a chance to see Kurapika again, as unlikely as that sounded.

The group started to leave with you behind them, Neon leading you by holding onto your hand. Yeah, she was the best case scenario in that whole situation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yeah. See what I mean by pretty disturbing lol? Don't worry, it gets better in the creepy department, in terms of angst and stuff? Yeah not happening. I feel like the angst will be real in this one.

Oh yeah. Forgot to mention. This is pretty much going to follow the plotline of the series. Except with reader-san being with Neon. By the way, Kurapika should be coming next chapter or the chapter after. Haven't really decided how I want to do it.
