He blinked; this was unheard of but certainly not unusual as he obeyed and came out on stage. Still looking as stoic as he did when Dunkel first saw him. The neko looked at the all human crowd.

"This is a specimen who has been with us for quite awhile, and has been passed from master to master. His likes and dislikes mostly include anything found in the BDSM world and he is also very easy to train. We'll start the bidding for Dunkel at $500 and the same for Denieru." the auctioneer announced.

An oriental man rose from his seat and walked closer to the front, sitting at the end of the front row in his black kimono and black mask made out of wood and his long black hair touching his waist.

"$500 for Dunkel!" a man said from the front row, a bid after him quickly following that was higher and the two started a bidding battle for Dunkel that ended with Dunkel being sold for $3000. Dunkel immediately got off stage and joined a white haired neko that looked like a twin to him and they embraced one another before sitting down by the man who had bought them.

"...$5000 for the mixed race neko." the oriental man said calmly after everything had quieted down, his accent that of a fluent Japanese decent.

"Five-thousand going once...Five-thousand going twice...sold to the man in the kimono!" the auctioneer said after no one had placed a bid higher, though there were shocked stares at the oriental man who had placed a bid so high.

How did the oriental know that Denieru was half English and half Japanese? It wasn't even mentioned in his bio was it? as Denieru didn't hear anything about it. The neko however didn't argue against it; looking directly at the man who had just bought him before being directed to join him. Though wasn't the neko supposed to be 'prepared' first?

Denieru settled himself down near the oriental man and kept his head bowed.

The oriental man looked over at him for a few moments in silence before standing up slowly and he started walking away towards the front to pay for the neko and leave.

Denieru followed the oriental man, wondering what his name was but it wasn't his place to ask was it. He was still wondering how he knew he was mixed race though. But he didn't want to ask.

The oriental man gave 5000 to one of the nekos toward the front who took it and put it under his name and he looked back at Denieru before he continued walking towards the door and out to the limo that was waiting for him outside, ignoring that Denieru was still naked and therefore drawing attention to them.

But this was the kind of society where nekos had no rights. So a neko being naked in public wasn't a big issue; Denieru however sort of enjoyed the attention as he blushed before climbing into the limo on command. He didn't sit on a seat though.

The oriental man lowered into the limo and sat on a seat with his arms still folded in his kimono sleeves. "You may sit down." he said softly from behind his mask.

"Thank You Sir." Denieru whispered and sat down; his english accent shining through the half-japanese neko. The neko looked down on the floor and rubbed his arm softly

"...You may call me Kiku." the man said after a few moments of silence.
