@James Steel On Tatooine a few blocks from the Auction house where Bustati has been bought by Zalow, after suffering through 9 years of slavery...Bustati is following after Zalow through the busy streets free of her chains.
Bustati followed after Zalow with a bit of a stumble and wobble as she raced to keep up, her peg leg certainly not the latest model, but something she devised with her own hands based on what she had available. They seemed to be moving at a rapid pace through one of the more grittier markets on Tatooine, leaving the auction block and her chains behind, or more like he seemed to be leaving her, after just freeing her. No, she couldn't allow that to happen.
Finally her voice broke through the crowd, "Hey! Wait!" She said as she moved after him, the words of 'You owe me one' echoing in her ears, leaving her rather perplexed. "What do you mean I owe you one? I mean you bought me, owing isn't quite the- Are you even listening?!" Did he not understand how the slave trade worked, could this truly mean freedom and if so now what? It wasn't like she could go back to her home world, not that she knew how to get off this current clump of sand! "Aren't you going to take me with you?!"
Her hand reached out, the nails like claws snagged on the fabric as red skin stretched and flexed with her digits in the desire to take hold of him. She was bound to get his attention one way or the other. He was not going to leave her here! He was not going to ignore her! He was going to explain what he meant!...Perhaps the sun had taken an effect on her in the sweltering heat of high noon, causing her to abandon all reason and lessons of the past.
Looking at her there wasn't much to scrawny form which was no doubt stricken with hunger, her hair no doubt containing some warped form of lice, and her clothes rags which hung from her form much like a gunny sack. She was desperate, she was lost, and understandably her eyes showed a hint of fear. But there was also hate in her eyes. Hate for him. Hate for her situation. Hate that stirred an unyielding defiance and a soul that was not quite broken.
