"The slave establishment have not been into slave trade for a while now, and now, we all have decided to sell some slaves, who have been tamed enough, so that the image of the establishment will not be tarnished"

Simone said, looking at the slaves which bow lay low, staring at him, he looked at the crowds, his eyes making contact with a slave, the slave never seemed to back down, from staring at him, she was still arrogant.

"Because, some slaves would disgrace the establishment and cause a disadvantage to future next trades in the future.

The warden said, still looking at Alexia.

"All other slaves except Alexia Ortega, will not participate in the slave's trade, she will have to remain in the establishment for a more years, till she is well tamed, then she will have to be sold out, out to a disciplined master"

The warden said, watching as the slave gave him a quizzical look, he smiled, the slave needed more taming, and he was going to make sure she was well tamed, to the brim, and if she refuses to be tamed, he will have no choice than to kill her. 

"Now, go gather your self in the meeting ground, a guard stands awaiting for your arrival, your names needs to be registered in the books of about to be sold out. These only is for those who would be sold in the next week slave trade"

The warden said, looking at her once more, he left the camp. 

The slaves whispered among themselves, getting sold to slave masters does not guarantee them a good lives, but a more gruesome one than the one they face in the establishment or maybe a better life.

"The warden wants you dead, he does not consider granting you freedom, he will want to rip you apart before or when you are good enough for been a real slave to your master"

Rachel said, her voice sounded concerned, getting sold outside these dungeon, without her best friend getting sold, was not a comforting thought. 

"You do not have to worry, the warden does not consider me tamed enough to leave here, yet he calls me fragile and pathetic and cunning, and then not tamed, he calls me a wild woman"

Alexia said, her voice filled with fury and anger, how dare the warden tried to keep her here, without no valid reason whatsoever.

"Spill, what do you have in mind you woman, spill thinker bell"

Rachel said, dragging her to a corner, preventing the guards or other slaves from listening to their conversation.

"Do you expect me to stay in here, not finding my little sister and mother, who knows If they are dead or alive. You of all people know how much I want to leave these cage, now do you expect me to stay here sweet heart"

Alexia said, looking at the slave which had stopped a few feet away from her, looking at them for a while, before leaving for the registry room. The warden must have sent some group of people to watch every actions she took.

"I know you do not wish to remain here, I believe that you might be thinking of a way to leave these dungeon, and now the opportunity have present itself to us, the warden is pulling you back. There is no way I do ever allow that happen"

Rachel said, her voice sounding firm and strong.

"I will have to sneak in to the registry room when the guards are asleep, to write down my name"

Alexia asked, now walking out from where they stood, standing in a place in the establishment for quite a long time could make the other slaves or guards think that they were planning any thing, if they create any suspicious scene in the minds of the people around them, it will cause them no good. Instead, it will terminate their plans.

"How the hell are you going to do something like that, won't you be caught"

Rachel said, her eyes widening at the thought of Alexia been caught.

"Because I won't have to do it alone, you will have to help me find the the register, where the names were written, you will have to write down my name afterwards, or you erase one of the names in the register"

Alexia said, watching as Rachel gave her a look of confusion.

"And what will you do, if I get to do the main job, writing down your name in the registry room, is a huge task"

Rachel said, her thoughts filled with fear of being caught by the guards.

"I will distract the guards from you, which requires more skills than the one you would do, unless you do prefer to switch positions with me, taking care of the guards if they get any one of us, and feeding them with lies and actions, sweet actions you know, are you ready for that"

Alexia said, giving her a knowing smile, her job of distracting the guards was quite task full than changing a name in a piece of paper. 

"These is not going to be easy as you thought"

Alexia said, now they stood beside the registry room, a guard came obstructing Alexia from entering the room, she gave a sigh, before turning back, walking a few distance away from the guard, Alexia walking bestie her.

"I must need you to trust me, and I need you to be there"

Alexia said, giving her a sigh, her face looking sad.

"OK, sure, I can't bear leaving you behind, here all alone, In these cage, even though we do not know how kind our masters would be"

Rachel said, holding onto Alexia's hands for a while, before releasing her grasp from her.

"I Will have to go register my name, I also need to get some specific details concerning how the register book looks like, so I can use it in the near future"

She said again, tapping her once more, before leaving Alexia's presence. Alexia turned front, staring at the slaves that went in and out of the registry room, she did not know why, but she felt something in her, which made her want to get sold, to a master.
