♥ A Travailing Salesman

[Jinx Saviyon]

Jinx felt a serge of accomplishment as he felt the sack of coins fall into his pale-white hand, then dumbed them out and counted out each coin carefully. Upon determining the amount was correct, the man walked over to the boy and unchained his ankles first, and then his wrists. "And feel free to keep any of thoughts restraints." He indicated the pile of junk he had dropped into the dirt before.

The boy looked up at the man with his eyes widened in fear as the man placed his hand on his head, his grin striking a painful tingling feeling in the boy's heart. He wasn't sure to do at this point, and he was afraid of the mans intentions, and judging by the way he had examined the boy, his intentions were sexual. The boy hesitated when the man had asked him his name, then answered quietly, "J-Jin..." His body quivering in fear.

"Jin you say" Shino said looking at little Jin up and down. "I would have chosen a name for you but seeing how you have a suitable name, I guess I won't" he said picking Jin up from his waist and placing him on his hip like a father would his child, went over to the pile of junk on the floor and spotted out the best looking collar. "here put this on" he said giving the boy his collar. "You're going to like were we're going, because it's a secret place" he said tickling Jin's nose. Shino went up to the merchant and bowed lowly as to show his appreciation for his new purchase. "Thank you sincerely my kind sir" he said while he step out the door. Shino started down the sandy path toward the place he called home. The one place no one could ever find him. In the underground city of Ranegixitchakn

Jin let the man pick him up gripped onto the man tightly when he noticed that his head was so high off the ground, afraid of letting himself fall. He carefully and loosely put his new collar around his neck, trying no to let his grip around this tall man slip. He rested his head on the man shoulders, knowing that there was nothing else to do.

The merchant bowed back and closed shop for the year as soon as the man left. His shift was up here, and he needed to be out of site by midnight. They began to pack the caravan just after sundown and rolled off into the night.
