"The memorys and feelings I have towards the world are mixed.Before the day I became a slave the world was great.Peacful, fun, full of laughter.The day I became a slave they way I looked at the world changed completely.The world was, or so I though, a horrid place.Full of bad people who do bad things.Now that I have got to thinking about it I have no clue what the world is like anymore."~Celia ventured near the door once more.This time she genty placed her hand on the door handle.~"Now..I want to see it for myself."~Celia looked to Avio and smiled a bit.~

"Exactly. I don't think the power suits me, either. I dread the day when it ever shows itself, but I guess I can't do anything about that. Besides, I might not even develop it, sine we only assumed as such because of my sibling's abilities." Ione had never liked to the dark and though she had, of course, grown out of her fear of it as a child, the girl still didn't like the idea.
Gaze flickered around the quaint room, the warmth of the fireplace caressing her form, supplying the only light in the room. Jin and Joshua were playing a card game of sorts in the left corner while Keith and Seth were arguing fiercely about who's power was better. Ione's youngest brother, Parker, was no where to be seen.
When it came down to it, Mr. Wizel seemed to be the polar opposite of his daughter, especially when it came to appearances. While Ione was general small framed, her father was far from frail and looked as if he could snap anyone in half if he wanted. His features were dark, with his short black hair and tanned skin, where as the girl was quite fair in comparison. However, there was one thing she had inherited from her father- Bright green eyes. The middle-aged man looked up from the thick book in which he had been indulged in, emotionless gaze settling on both his child and her new slave.
"Hello, father. Sorry for taking so long. Um, well, this is Mister Zhin." Ione greeted, glancing back at the vampire before looking back to the head of the household.
"Ione, I assume you didn't run into any trouble there?" Getting up from the cozy chair he had been sitting in, the man strode over to the two, observing Zhin as if he were trying to detect anything worth criticizing. "Would like to explain to me what logic brought you to buy someone who wasn't human, Ione? Especially a vampire.."

Avio stood there and said nothing. He figured it best that he stay out of this part and just nod instead. This was something that he'd reasoned to let Celia do since this would be her freedom. He believed that since his life had been saved by the person who now stood near the fringes of freedom for a second time and now has a second chance at life that he'd owe her something else. He thought deeply upon it for a fraction of a moment and came to realize that he'd have to now get a higher paying job as well so that he could support Celia for a while so that she could get some rest in from all the years of slavery. It wouldn't matter to him what type of job he'd have to take up, as long as it payed. This new thought that donned on him could be seen in his face, and it showed rather galliantly.

~Celia studied his face for a minute as she took her hand off of the handle~"Money?"~Celia reached towards the waist line of her dress and pulled a bag out from a pocket that was not easy to see.She handed the bag to avio.~"Not only have I been a slave for six years but I have been pushed to work in strip clubs.Though I may not have like it at all I did earn some money.Somewhere in there I believe there is a bundle of money.Added together it is around $6,000.There are alos some other bills and checks in there."

Avio looked to Celia, stunned into paralysis. "H-how!? How did y-you know my thoughts?" His voice showed that he was indefinantly caught off guard, though he regained his composure a moment later, "I mean, I didn't say that aloud, did I? Well, anyways, this money is yours. I cannot accept it because you have rightfully earned it, though it wasn't in the best fashion. I will just get another, possibly higher paying job than the one I have now to help you out a bit. The money you have with you now will only last for so long, so I'll start saving it up now. I'll help you get a job later, after you've rested for a bit that is."
Another thought reached Avio's mind. It was a curious thing this one though because of its nature. "Would she want to?" he thought to himself, wondering whether he should tell Celia about his job as of now and if she'd want to hear what he'd have to ask her.

~Celia smiled her small fangs showing.~"I have this little thing where I can sort of read minds occasionaly.I'd prefer you use the money to help.I don't want to keep it, it would only remind me of my past."~She said while looking into his emrald eyes~
"What do you have to ask me?"~She said tilting her head to the side a bit.~

Avio looked at Celia and stared into her crimson eyes. "Now I see it, you're...not...human are you?" he wondered aloud, also noticing the fangs. "
Reguardless, you're still in my care until you can support yourself fully. What I was going to ask you is if you wanted to...well...become my partner in my actual job, that is whenever you get your needed rest. I know it's not much, but I do mercenary work now, accepting contracts whenever they come up or go bounty hunting whenever there are no available contracts," he smirked slightly, "That's why I didn't think of my actions that I was talking about earlier as if they were heroic at all. I'm pretty sure that you wouldn't want to get tangled up in my mess, so I was unsure of whether to ask you or not."

~Celia looked down to the floor as she spoke softly~"No, I'm not completely human.I have all human features but I am indeed a vampiress.As for the reading minds thing I'm not sure."~She looked up at him~"When I look into peoples eyes I can see what they are thinking.As for the work, I'd love to.I need no time to rest I will be just fine.I would like to see the world or at least part of it but I can work."

"So you'll be my partner then. We'll split the rewards down the middle so that you can have your own spending money. As for the six grand, we'll put that in the bank so that it can collect interest, that is, it will make you more money. While you're my partner though, I can actually travel more now, possibly see the world more than I have, as will you. I don't actually live in one spot, but rather 'pack up camp' whenever a place runs out of contracts or doesn't have anyone of a worthy bounty. You wouldn't mind that, would you?"

~Celia smiled once more her fangs showing.~"No, I think that would be quite enjoyable actualy..Also there is a lot more than 6grand in that bag, that is just the amount I had counted out and bundled together."~Celia was happy she was finaly going to be free.She wasn't only going to be free she was going to get to see the world.One thing she wondered about was what had ever happened to her mother.She didn't remember her mother to well but she had always wondered why she had never tryed to find her.None of that mattered any more though because she was going to be free.~ ((Sorry about the mother thing, I had to find something to make my post a bit longer.))

"Alright then, we'll take care of that later, shall we leave now?" Avio asked Celia who was still just at the door that had barred her freedom for so long. "Know this though, once we are on the road, we probably won't stop until we reach a sizeable town and you could possible loose your life during a 'mission', are you up to that without any good rest right now?"
