Nelly was a little girl who grew up in a high-end Animalia family. She was apart of the Feline Animalia which was home to many famous feline animal-humans, but she was different. She had a different color fur on her ears and tail, they were white, and that was the complete opposite of her family's colors. So she was outcasted from her family by being sold to a rich human family, where they treated her horribly for 2 years when she escaped and went to the streets of the towns.
Nelly didn't have any skills so she was quickly gathered up by Hybrid Traders, she was then sold over and over again, and stolen and bought. She lost all sense of her surroundings, she was stuck in her bottomless hole with no way out, she felt as if she was going to live this way until she died so she accepted it and did whatever the men asked her to do. If she had to strip she did if she had to act like she was in pain for an auction she did.
Recently she was stolen by some thieves who were planning on selling her off again. She was completely unsurprised and went with them without a struggle. She couldn't fight the wave so she just rode it, except now she couldn't leave it and was doomed to stay here forever. Nelly wasn't going to live long, she was only 11 now but in a few years when she turned 18 the men in the world would stop buying her. She always wondered if someone would save her before that happened but so far, she is left in the dark.
I look back at Violet and sigh "Why am I going to save this girl anyway? I have no reason to save her, and it could be dangerous." Violet pouts and Selina sighs too "You should do the right thing and save her, it would be great if you did it for us." I turn and see Selina look at me sweetly and Violet joins in, I laugh and give them a smile "Fine, but we shouldn't keep her, let's just give her back to her family."
I look at Naomi who was walking ahead and I catch up to her "What's wrong?" She looks at me with a surprised look and laughs "Oh nothing, I was just trying to remember more of my lost memories, sorry if I worried you, Leon." I smile back and look forward as I walk off "No worries, I'm fine." I look around a corner and see the location where we are going "That should be it so let get this over with quickly and quietly so nobody suspects a thing."
The girls all nod and I head up to the door to see two guards standing in front of the door "Hello gentlemen! Nice day isn't it?" The first one lowers his weapon and the second points his at me "What do you want?" I look at them with a smile and quickly draw my flintlock and shoot them both before they can react "Oh nothing, just wanted to stop by." I look around and see no one notice what happens, so I drag one body in as Naomi sneaks up and brings the other one close behind me.
Naomi stops dragging when we get inside and I move them both to the corner in the dark. Then Selina and Violet sneak in behind us and we all search the small rooms to the side, one room had some money in it and the rest had storage for random materials "Lets take all the money so they cant keep this going again." I agree and put the coins into my pouch, I look over at the main room doors and walk up to them.
I crack the door open and look around, then turn back and whisper to the girls "There is only 4 guards in the room. And the girl is being chained in the center to a pole in the ground." Selina nods and sorts out the plan as Violet smiles "I think that Violet and me should both go and untie the girl and Leon and Naomi should fight and guard us." Naomi nods and Violet gives a thumb up, I look at Selina and grin.
I pick my foot up and kick the door open, and as the guards turn to see whats happening I start to attack them, and Naomi takes the others. The other two run in and dash for the girl in chains, the girl looks up at Violet and Selina and doesn't even bother to look surprised. I finish one guard with a swift cut to his stomach as the other charges at me. Naomi jumps in and stops him, I nod at her and finish him by kicking him to Naomi who stabs him in his chest.
Once we finish all of the guards, I look over at Naomi "You go help free the girl, I can stand watch." Naomi nods and runs over to the girls to help. I look over to see a man walk into the room, he smiles and looks at me "So you all are attacking us for the girl huh? Why don't I end this right now? Ive got some lunch to make." I draw my cube and form it into a sword as I ready myself "So you are the captain of this crew of kidnappers?"
The man looks at me and laughs "Im the captain of over 100 bands like this one in the towns, don't underestimate me kid." I grit my teeth and the man charges at me, he throws a sword attack and I block but he kicks me afterwards "Your pretty weak kid, do you know how to even use a sword?" I shake my head and the man laughs again, he swings again. I dodge and slash him in the side of his cheek, a little blood comes out of the wound "Your swordsmanship is trash but you are pretty fast and strong."
I look at him with a determined look "Whats your name kid? You can call me Captain Daft, I will end up being your nightmare though." I look at him and ready myself "You can call me Leon I am going to finish taking that girl away from this place." The captain laughs and we start trading blows, as Naomi gets the chain off and they start a dash for the door. The girl didn't object, she just walked with them instead, once I knew they were gone, I quickly dived at the man and cought him off guard.
I knocked him over and made a dash for the entrance too. The captain stood up slowly and looked at me running off, as I peered at him from a distance "Im sure, I will be able to fight you again. And I wont let you go again." I keep running as I exit the hideout and run up to the girls who are standing nearby. Violet was looking at the girl and Selina was waving at me when I showed up "How did it go?"
I sighed and looked at the girl as I cut some small bondages on her wrists "It went fine, now lets go turn her in to the authorities." Violet pouts as Selina shrugs and the girl looks up at me and speaks quietly "Did you just save me?" I look at her and nod, she looks down at her hands "I have never been saved before, thanks big brother." I look at her confusedly and she looks back at me and smiles, I cant help but smile too.
Naomi looks at her and pats her head "What should we call you dear?" The girl looks up and thinks for a moment "How about Nelly?" I look at Naomi who mutters "I meant your real name though." Nelly looks around and hugs me with a smile "Your gonna be my big brother since I already have a mommy and daddy." I sigh and just nod as I know we wont keep her long "Anyway, lets go back to the inn for now."
As we walk back, I end up buying some clothes for Nelly, one small dress with flowers on it "That should be right for her." All of the other girls look at Nelly with such cuteness. Nelly just looks confused at us, and once we get the dress we head back to the inn to meet Josephine who had almost finished packing her stuff when I walked in "Hey, your back, how was your last day here?"
I thought and smiled "It was refreshing, Im glad your just finishing your packing now, I was coming to tell you that we wont be leaving for the next hour." Josephine nods delightfully and I turn to leave "Leon, we will be leaving by nightfall so have all your stuff ready by then." I nod and head back to my room to relax as I have decided that maybe Nelly can stay with us a little longer.
