A Chain Dance

From the dark corner of the room, a small figure emerges from the darkness encased in a black cloak from head to toe.  Carefully the figure peers around the room trying to blend in amongst the Free.  As the figure stands dangerously close to the sand pit and peers at the coarse sand, it kicks at it a little bit dabbling bare toes in the sand, when all of a sudden, the hood on the cloak falls down and reveals the face of a woman covered in a gossamer veil.  A long, auburn mane falls down to her shoulders as the look of fear comes across two chocolate orbs that sparkle and light up the room.

Suddenly, the boom of drums rings throughout the room.  The girl jumps high into the air, startled as she moves frantically through the pit coming to a screeching halt as two small feet dig into the sand, kicking up a massive cloud of dust that sprays across the room.  The beast pulls two dainty hands to her face, holding two rose hued cheeks in horror before pushing away at open space, seeing nothing but a crowd of Warrior Masters, shaking an auburn tressed head back and forth in disbelief.

All of a sudden, a large Master in a dark crimson cloak appears from the massive crowd and starts to approach the sand pit.  The girl backs up frantically in the opposing direction of His approach, kicking up clouds of dust trying to hide from the towering giant that approaches her small form.  Running from corner to corner and side to side of the pit, she searches for a place to hide or Someone to hide her... Someone to come to her aid to set her free.

Curling up in a small ball in the corner of the sand pit, the beast shakes in fear, trying to hide tucking in all limbs and head under two muscular legs.  The Warrior places an enormous hand atop a shoulder that seems to disappear under it.  He reaches down and grabs a very slender forearm, and with a struggle, manages to pull the slut to her feet.  With a loud shrill, the veil is stripped from a delicate face.  He pulls off the cloak, revealing gossamer yellow silks that barely cover a small form, and attaches a collar to a slendar neck.

In horror, the girl pulls back to the edge of the pit in opposite direction to Him, not noticing the chain attached tightly to the steel that surrounds her neck.  The chain tightens, and the girl falls to her bottom atop the sand with a jerk.  Tugging frantically at the chain that binds her to the Warrior, droplets of tears fall down flushed cheeks, praying she finds some way to escape His clutches.  He pulls her back towards Him, as she struggles to keep away to no avail.  Taking the chain into her teeth, the beast tugs, bites, pulls, and growls at the Master and the chain; she tries to pull away from Him once again, managing to come to a point shorter than the last.

He pulls the girl back to Him for one last time, holding the large chain in one hand.  The girl, out of energy, drenched in sweat and covered in sand kneels before His towering legs with eyes lowered, and palms placed up, begging to be taken and used by Him.  Suddenly, the Warrior grabs the beast's forearm and pulls her up to full height.  Limply, she stands, feeling His massive hand cup her chin and guide it to His unforgiving lips.  With quieted moans, the beast delicately wraps two slender arms around His neck as He lifts her in His strong arms, carrying her away to His chambers.
