The "pretty biter" snarled savagely for his men. Nero's crew eked from the shadows to surround him. No one double crossed him! That youth was his. Feeling a strange well of possessiveness, Nero snarled again, gnashing his teeth.
"Take him down." Nero whispered coldly to his startled men. They'd never seen their Captain act so passionately. The listened to their orders and dispersed among the crowds. All of Nero's crew were powerful warriors and within minutes, the auction was in chaos, a mass of scream fighting people.
Burton paled and stumbled backwards, yanking Harmony along with him. He would not be had by some vampire and his crew! However, Nero was already coming for the male, pushing through the riotous crowd for his creature! Blue eyes locked on Burton and Harmony, followed by a dark smile.

Harmony was trying to sccramble away from Burton once the chaos had errupted not wanting to be taken with him nor taken by the his biter. He saw this as his one chance to escape, but Burton was having none of it. Yanking on the chain, he pulled Harmony back and slapped him hard against the cheek. Harmony fell backward from the impact, collar scraping against his delicate neck.

Nero roared in fury when he saw that delicate boy slapped. In a blink, he traced from where he stood to Burton's side, looming over the male like a tall menacing shadow. Burton promptly dropped the chain to Harmony's collar as he tried to make a run for it.
The male didn't get far for Nero was much faster, pouncing on Burton and ripping at his jugular. Nero dropped the still twitching trader, watching him bleed his life's blood with an impassive gaze.

Harmony took a few minutes to stare at the bleeding twitching trader before crawling away through the crowds of chaos not thinking that maybe it was more dangerous to escape into the woods of Jeskara than stay and be taken by his biter.

Nero looked wildly around for the little male. He saw only the screaming, fighting crowd and his own men taking the slaves he'd chosen while releasing the others.
In the frantic crowd, anyone on the ground was trampled or kicked, some dead already from the unknown mass of people if they didn't move fast enough.

Once at the edge of the crowd, a few bruises forming from kicks he'd recieved while crawling through the crowd, he stood up and dusted himself off. Sighing, he looked around wondering which way to go.

Still up on the stage by Burton's body, Nero finally spied the boy as ways off. Knowing that tracing took a lot of energy, he didn't caring, doing so anyways as he materialized in front of Harmony.
"We're to you think you're going, boy?" Nero asked in a deadly whisper, shrouded in the shadows mere feet from the teen.

Harmony jumped startled and turned toward the direction of the voice yelling, "Don't scare me like that." When he realized who it was, he quickly covered his mouth and started to back away, leash rattling along with him.

"Don't try to run away." Nero snapped. He didn't let the boy back away, instead, grabbing the dangling chain and yanking the teen forward. "Did you think I wouldn't notice?" The vampire asked softly.

Harmony caught onto his biter's shirt to steady himself and shook his head no, swallowing nervously.

Nero sighed softly in his elegant way as he crooked a finger beneath the boy's chin. "What is your name?" He asked. "I like to know the names of people I kill for." He added a little harshly.

Kill for? "Harmony," Harmony answered, "Harmony Youngblood Pleasant. If you've killed for me, do I not get your name. I'd like to know what to call the one who will no doubt be taking me away now." He was scared, yes, but Harmony found that escape would have to wait and to be pleasant as much as he could so that escape could be made easier. Though he had never been the best and pleasing the customers at home, he thanked his family for his training right then.

Nero chuckled as the sweet name of Harmony reached his ears. "Well, Harmony Youngblood Pleasant, you are correct. I will be taking you away now." Still though, the vampire reached up and unbuckled the collar, tossing it to the side in disgust.
"Retched, useless things." He said by was of explanation. "My name is Nero but you will either call me sir or captain. Is that clear?"

"Yes, Captain," Harmony said saluting glad to have the collar off. He felt a little down that the coudln't call the pretty man by his name, but he would have fun calling him captain. Lifting up a hand to his neck, he winced when he felt the sting coming from the scrapes the retched collar caused.

[color=CCCCCC[Nero frowned slightly when he saw Harmony's neck. "Don't." He commanded, taking that delicate hand in his own. "It'll only hurt more. I'll have someone tend to you when we get back."
It was hard not to roll his eyes at the kid. The way he had called him Captain was just too cute. Sighing, Nero just kept hold of Harmony's hand. "Come along then. We best be out of here before the authorities arrived." He said this as he tugged the teen into the woods. [/color]
