The market

[Maero]

The bidding went up and up, but it hardly mattered, Arkurus was paying for her anyways, and so at the end of the auction she became his. "Thank you for your purchase." the auctioneer said, leading Alex and Lillia back stage. There they found their angel waiting for them, sitting, still bound and gagged, in a cage that looked an awful lot like a bird cage. "So, we can have her delivered to your residence or you can take her now." The man said as he pulled out a sheet of paper. "Also, she is unnamed as of yet, so you can name her. And if you have any questions about angels then just ask me, I've sold enough of them to know whats important." The small angel looked up at Alex from her cage with large, scared eyes. But there was no hate or resentment there, only fear and sadness.
