Shimmer was tired, tired of feeling like a failure, and tired of being someone's stupid slave. Weren't slaves always supposed to be treated nicer? Like a part of the family? Guess her particular mas- She guessed that the guy she currently worked for, but would no longer be soon, just didn't read the rule book.
Ice collected where ever she walked, a heavy mist of her feelings settling over her thickly. Tired, tired, tired, tired!
Icy claws worked their way onto her fingertips, but the bite made her feel surprisingly comforted. The frost cooled her skin beyond the point of normalcy, but she didn't care. One way or the other it was going to end tonight. There was no talking about her freedom with them, though she wished it could end that way, just taking it.

Flynn walked down the street with his cane.'God this place has gone to crap since I've last been here.'He sniffed the air and smirked.'Still it's nice to be back where I grow up I guess.'He shivered and pulled his traveling cloak tighter.'Its better still to be back home.'He shivered again and started to look left and right.'Why is it getting so cold all of the sudden.'The old man began to list the ways that could have changed the weather so quickly.'It could be a cold front. No there is no clouds. So that means it's not natural, but why would someone make it colder on purpose. Maybe a Calgor is just begining their training and they can't control their abilities all that well. Or maybe someone is doing it and not realizing it.'He continued walking deep in his own thoughts.

Shimmer wasn't expecting another soul down here, not yet, and so when she bumped into a figure, the ice immediately melted from shock.
"I-I'm sorry!" she said, returning to her normal demeanor like a snap of the fingers.

Reaching out her hand she helped Flynn to his feet. The girl looked down when she heard the word parents.
"Don't have any," she said softly.

He looked surprised at the little girl."Then who takes care of you?"He searched the streets of the bad part of town."You shouldn't be out here by yourself little one........ This part of town has a reputatiion of being bad."He dropped to his knees looking at her at eye level."What's your name little one."

She was a bit shocked at the kindness. Her master had always been very cruel to her...
"I take care of myself. I live here...actually..." she said, looking to the side. Fiddling with the rags that made up her dress she spoke softly. "I'm Shimmer."

Flynn reached out his hand to the young child."Nice to meet you Shimmer. My name is Flynn."
He gave her a puzled look when the child said she lived here."Shimmer this is no place for a young child, how do you take care of your self."Flynn examined the girl more closely."It looks like you have'nt eaten in days."He dug into his pocket and pulled a few gold coins."Here take this and buy some food. And if there's any left over get some clothes to."

She flinched away when he reached out his hand towards her, and eyed him suspiciously.
"A slave isn't considered a child," she said, rubbing the brand on her arm idly. "I am an object...and to be perfectly honest I am tired of being treated as such." The girl looked down at the gold pieces and blinked. She took a step back and shook her head.

Flynn was took back to find out she was a slave."A slave I thought they outlawed slavery quite awhile ago."He was took back again when she didn't take up his offer to get some food in your belly."Thats nonsense you looked starved, at least get some food. I won't be able to bare with my conscions knowing that your hungry."
OOC: Sorry for any grammer errors. I think thats how you spell conscions.

OOC: It's cool. I think it's conscience though :3.
IC:
"You'd be wrong then," she said very softly. "It's still here, but slavery isn't meant to be the way it is...and I will not take your money." She took another step backwards. "I will find food on my own sir..."

Flynn looked confused and put the coins back into his pocket."How long have you've been a slave Shimmer?"He asked as he began down the street again."Would you come to walk with an old man?"Flynn gripped his cane harder as he felt his bones ache."I feal a storm coming. We need to find shelter."

"Since momma died." she said softly. "I don't remember how long, it's all run together." She tilted her head to the side, nervous about the whole situation. However, for whatever reason she followed the old man.

He smiled down at the child."I have been all over the world shimmer and a I have seen many things."He pulled his travel cloak tighter around him as it started to rain."Come in here."He opener the door to an abanded house."Storms here have always been the worst. Anyway back to my point the travels I have been on I've learned from many mistakes one I have learned is to take any help possible."He quickly started a fire from the Surrounding sticks."I'm leaving in the morning to head to the endless desert if you want to I will take you from this place. You can be freed, and if your master sends anyone after you I will protect you."Flynn laid his head on a stone to catch some sleep."I will pay for your freedom if your master is willing but I promise you I will free you."And with that he went to sleep.

Shimmer twitched, and walked inside, looking arond warily. The water calgor's spirit animal took hold, and soon a reindeer was pawing at the ground. She always felt better when she slept in her spirit beast form... She knew without a doubt that her master would not allow her to be free. Not even money would help...
She'd think about the offer in the morning. The reindeer rested her head on the stone floor, but did not sleep.
