Ra'Zhid fidgeted in the hull of the Imperial prison ship Justifier. The Kajiit had no liking for water, and even less of a liking for confined spaces. He fell into slumber, disliking the rocking movement made by the ship...
He woke some time later, and sat up, listening intently. From what he could hear, it sounded like the ship had docked at last. Morrowind... He considered the name, figuring that he had better some to like the place, seeing as how long he would be spending here. He smiled to himself, thinking that he would be spending less of his time in captivity than expected. He heard footsteps coming, and stood up, looking expectantly at the door. It opened and, as expected, one of the Imperial guards took him up t the surface along with more prisoners, mostly other Kajiit and Argonians. Once on the deck of the ship, he took a deep breath of air, glad to feel the wind on his face once again. From the snatches of conversation he heard, they were apparantly in Vivec, which was a large city, and he was going to be heading towards the slave market. Deciding to try and escape later, when there were less guards, he allowed himself to be herded towards the arena, where the auction would be taking place.

Frieb had been assigned to guard duty as the slaves were being transfered. He looked at the lot he was assigned to as if he was trying to memorize what each one looked like. He came apon a Kajiit and sighed not that he came apon it but the fact that he had to do guard duty. "Argh I hate this!" He said softly to himself

Ra'Zhid noticed the stares of one guard in particular. Twisting to look at the guard, he caught one glimpse before the chain was yanked savagely and he was tugged towards the arena.

Frieb moved up with slaves as they were brought out into the arena. All that went through his head was how much he hated this and remembered when his friend was brought to the arena to be sold. He made up his mind that he was going to save at least one of the slaves and attempt to escape from the ever vast city.

Ra'Zhid resisted for the first time. When the chains tugged again to bring him into the arena, he stood his ground. Grabbing the wall, he glared, feeling a rage fill up inside of him at the actuality of being sold, like a chair or a rug. Letting out a howl of rage, he began trying to break his bonds, seeing the guards rush towards him.

As the some other guards charged as one of the slaves tried to escape Frieb acted on the what he wanted to do and pulled out his axe. "Get ready to run..." He quickly whispered to the slave that was trying break free. As finished saying that his axe cut the chains.

Ra'Zhid barley heard the words of the guard through his rage. As his chains broke free, he turned to run, clawing one of the guards in the face as he did so, trying to cause as much of a diversion for the guard who freed him as he could.

Frieb cut the chains to a few more of the slaves and then started running for his own life. He figuared that the slaves he freed would be able to take care of themselves for the time being.

*Naira heard the sounds of a fight as she walked through Vivec. Being a rogue, she thrived on chaotic situations and immediately began to head for the source of the noise. She was there in less than a minute and she paused as she watched the scene that was unfolding. Being new to Vivec, it was the first time that she had witnessed those of her kind being brought in, bound like beasts, obviously to be sold like they had no feelings at all. The sight both enraged and excited her, and she immediately made up her mind to add one more Khajiit to the chaos. She noticed one lone guard freeing slaves and ran to help, drawing her saber since her claws were no match for the chains that bound them. She managed to free a few and take down more than one of those arrogant guards. It gave her more satisfaction than anything else she had done in Vivec so far. She needed a little trouble... As other guards began to arrive on the scene, Naira wasted no more time, fleeing with those who had just been freed. Although she was new to the city, she had made a point to learn her way around, just in case she had needed to make a quick escape. She called out to the others, motioning for them to follow her as she ran.* "This way!"

Ra'Zhid saw the guard take off, and he ran as well. Sprinting down the corridor, the khajiit quickly made it to the outside. Seeing the other guards in close pursuit behind him, he leapt up, climbing and jumping his way up to the buildings, running to try and get clear of the city.

Frieb managed to make his way in to the swears after lossing someguards that were following him. As he walked through the swears he heards bits of differnt conversations about what had just happend. He knew he follow the swears the end hopeing that there weren't guards at the other end waiting for any slaves that may have thought to escape through the swears.

Ra'Zhid dodged around a corner and ducked out of sight. As the guards ran past him, he ran back a bit, and then started running away in a different direction. By now totally confused by the city, he finally saw green grass and ran towards it, delighting in the feel of grass once again beneath his claws. Looking back towards the city, he saw what looked like another Kajiit leading a group of kajiit and argonians. He stayed where he was, waiting to see where they would go.

Frieb made his through the swears undected and seeing no guards as he reached the exit which emptied in to a river. He looked around to see if the coast was clear when he spotted the Kajiit he first freed.

*Naira ran with her small group, winding as complicated a path as possible away from the Arena and into St. Olms. With the many turns that she had taken, she eventually managed to lose the few guards that persued them. However, with how many guards patrolled Vivec, she knew that it was only a matter of time before that would change. So, despite the danger in it, she quickly led them into South-Two, where she had been living the past few days. After closing and locking the door, she gave each of the newly freed slaves instructions which would lead them into various parts of the city, mostly in the canalworks where there would be less guards to notice them. One by one, she allowed them to leave, always making sure that there were no guards in sight to find them. After the last one was gone, Naira was able to breathe easy again. She was quite satisfied with herself, one of the few times that she was happy after getting out of trouble without anything to show for it.*

Ra'Zhid saw the guard head towards him. the Khajiit walked towards the guard, saying, "Thank you... I owe you my freedom... and possibly my life as well."
