As the caravan rolled westward, towards the Niafi river delta, Red Sun felt ill at ease. So much had been happening throughout Essyrn, and to herself, she knew not what to make of it all. Not only did the idea her master had with choosing to mate her over keeping her a warrior had been dropped, but after the unfortunate hanging of two slave masters, he took it upon himself to buy up the female warrior slave who had been discarded and sold off for the unfortunate atrocity.

It was strange, but Karime believed buying another powerful fighter for the Arena, even a tainted one, would bring him more power, more fame. It seemed to work, for his entourage was ever growing, and Red Sun, being a slave of his for so long, had long since lost count towards the extra men and women that now followed him about. It was even said Karime was to take on another wife, a thought that crept through the red haired woman's mind as the wagon wheels beneath them crunched across the rocky and sandy trail.

Essyrn, even outside of the city, smelled of heat, and the travel would be long spent in the sweltering sun. Thank the Gods most of the trail was woven throughout the major cities along the Niafi river boarder, so there was plenty of trees and water to keep both the caravan men and animals sated. But things had been happening so fast, and she, not knowing what to make of Yasmin, her master's new addition, found her aqua colored eyes turning towards the female warrior and studying her in silence. Red Sun was not a woman of many words by any means, and despite both of the warriors being fighters int he ring, Yasmin was not a warrior she had ever fought. It had been considered, but it was always disputed which of their masters pulled out at the last second before the fight had ever happened.

But it was a curious thing to take in, for the seed of doubt planted by Cassius from these weeks past, and now what both Yasmin and the slave-fighter Agrian had done, brought up even more unspoken questions stirring about inside Red Sun's head. Though not a fan of her own life as a slave, she knew better than to question it-

But questioned it now she did. For if looks spoke volumes, the gaze upon Yasmin said much, as it grew tenser and tenser as they were nearing the river's delta, their final destination for the event at hand. The crocodile hunt, a sport that was not uncommon, but was now being made into some sort of a fanfare in the honor of the Shah, and from what she gauged from Karime's ramblings, was trying to save her face after making a mockery of the merchant lords by the recent execution, was the farthest thign from her mind. Fighting crocodiles was one thing- but now to do it with a slave who outwardly stood against his master? What trust could she have in the woman? Thankfully, the pair were in separate cages as the caravan continued to roll through the city and beneath the thick shade of palms.

Red Sun wasn't alone in her observations.

For Yasmin was watching her new slave-sister about as closely and curiously as she knew Red Sun was observing her.

Sitting back in her cage, arms crossed under her breasts, Yasmin caught the girl staring at her (she wondered it she was trying to be subtle about it) and flashed her a bright smile, gave her an enthusiastic wave. It was a clear signal to say, Yeah, I know you're checking me out. But also, that she didn't really mind it; curiosity was natural. While she hadn't interacted with the woman much and knew of her deadly reputation, she wasn't threatened by her, either. The masters were the threat. And while there were slaves among them who were cruel, who did delight in bloodshed, and while some were no doubt born that way as happened with humans, many of those ones were no doubt made.

Yasmin could see how easy it would be to slip down that path, just out of sheer self-preservation, to shield oneself from the horror by embracing it.

But no, heavy on Yasmin's mind were Agrian's words. If they were to live their crazy dream, they needed allies, and she needed to get talking--carefully. She needed to suss out potential friends. She would be spending her life near this woman, now, and so she was to be her first target.

Hopefully, she was receptive. Today might not be the best day for a good heart to heart, considering the competitive nature of the event, but maybe if she could convince her to team up...

Yasmin shifted a little in her cage, her ass sore and her legs cramped. Sweat was slicking her skin from the sun and the heat, and she was grateful when the caravan finally came to a stop.

It would be a right shame if everyone died of heat stroke before the big event!

Red Sun's eyes narrowed at the little wave. Did this girl think this event was a joke? They could die out there. But then again, considering what they were...
They could die any day. 

It was just uncomfortable. To think, his master bought another fighting slave. And another female fighting slave. She sized up Yasmin more obviously now before sighing hotly through her nose.

She would have had more time to be integrated with this so called 'sister', but as it turns out...
Red Sun had been more than a bit cocky lately, and her master sought to keep her in her place. The bruises and whip lashes she now bore proved it. And she supposed, her master investing in someone else had her wondering if he was getting near to being fed up with her and her recent attempts to 'break free'. (Though to be fair, the last time she snuck out was for a couple of drinks...)  Any free man could enjoy those. Too bad that was what she was not.

Today would be a test, she knew. To see which one of his 'girls' could bring home a real trophy. And she knew if she didn't maintain the lethality of her reputation...
There was nothing stopping Karime of being rid of her. And she knew her master would not hesitate to cut off her head- just to ensure no one else could make a profit from his Red Sun.

It felt like forever, but finally the guards escorting the caravan came around to let out the slaves. Several came to tend Red Sun and Yasmin respectively, and Yasmin couldn't get out of that cage fast enough. She scrambled out as soon as the door opened and groaned as she stretched out her cramped legs, which had grown sore from the trip, and arched her spine.

"Sweet goddess," she breathed, twisting her torso this way and that to get out all the cricks. Then she stretched her legs, an athlete getting ready for the big race--only in this case, the "race" was to the river to...kill crocodiles and not die.

Ugh. Leopards were one thing. Underwater critters, however, were quite another. Leopards didn't try to drown you. Leopards didn't rip you apart piece by piece, or pull you underwater, or twist their bodies in a death roll that tore legs and arms from their sockets. Leopards were scary, but they were clean killers: a firm bite to the throat to choke out your life, or a hard bite to the spine to break it. Crocs, though...

Once they got hold of you, you were done. Done, or may as well be done, because you'd be crippled for life and useless.

When she was all limbered up, Yasmin pushed the thought from her head as much as she could--without much success--and then headed toward Red Sun. May as well formally introduce herself!

"Red Sun, was it?" she asked as she approached the other woman with a bright smile, hand extended to offer up the customary greeting. She wasn't sure Red Sun would actually accept it; the woman seemed rather...unfriendly. Not much like the hand-shaking, cheek-kissing sort. But Yasmin bore her no hard feelings and hey, at least she'd offered. No one could accuse her of not trying!

"I'm Yasmin. Sooo...exciting stuff, huh? Killing stuff. Again. As usual. Never gets old, let me tell you!"

Red Sun, too, was elated to be outside of her cage, but while her new companion was more energetically displaying her gratitude to be outside of their confined space, Red Sun remained more discrete, stretching about like a large cat, and ignoring Yasmin as best as she could. She used this moment to study their environment, but she wasn't sure how much this sort of studying would help.  She was a fighter in the arena, putting her on a boat with a spear... and in a boat while she was wearing chains, chains of which she frowned down at that were locked tightly to her wrist and ankles, brought an even more soured frown to her lips.

It wasn't until Yasmin approached did Red Sun lift her gaze to glare at the other woman. She remained silent and when the woman tried to offer her an appropriate greeting, she turned her shoulder to the other woman and faced the Niafi River Bank once more.

"Have you ever been trained on a boat?" she asked, her voice flat as she cut right down to business, her eyes wary and still observing the area like a predator inserted into a new field in which to hunt. She asked the question when she noticed the boats her master stood before.

Boats.. ugh.
She had never much been fond of rivers.

Ouch. This dame was cold. Yasmin glanced down at her own hand--was it dirty or something?--and then let it drop.

"Oh, well it's fantastic to meet you, too, Red Sun! I don't know about you, but I feel like this is the start of a great friendship. I was really feeling it just now, when you didn't shake my hand. Like some sort of connection, you know? Anyway..."

Turning toward the river, Yasmin shielded her eyes with her hand and looked out over the water. "Your question. You want the truth or the lie?"

Despite hearing all of the jabs Yasmin gave back in response to her cold shoulder, Red Sun only glanced at the woman when she offered her the last question.

"I'd prefer the truth," she told her, narrowing her gaze almost poisonously upon her companion.

Yasmin flashed Red Sun her brightest smile.

"Nope!" she said, planting her hands on her hips and rocking back on her heels. "Never even been in water deeper than a bath!"

Red Sun gave her companion a soured look. She had been on boats for travel, but this was different. Trying to kill an animal in a river....
She knew it wouldn't be easy, and if they didn't deliver to their master's expectations, Karime would show no mercy, and even at such a thought, she could still feel the stinging wounds of the whip lash still healing on her back.

Turning her glare away from Yasmin, her green eyes searched the area and she noted the boat Karime was hoovering around and proudly displaying before his entourage. He was going on and on about crocodiles, and Red Sun was curious just how these beasts would react in their natural habitat, and just exactly how she was to kill them- and..
Bring back their dead bodies on such a small boat. But as she studied Karime, she noted more than one boat around him. She supposed he'd bring his slaves to row that one. And it was rather large. He must be presuming he'd be getting a LOT of dead crocs.

Yasmin followed Red Sun's gaze, staring out at the boats her new master had prepared. The smaller one they'd be using, and...a far larger one. Someone had high hopes.

With a sigh and shake of her head, Yasmin wiped some sweat from her brow with the back of her hand.

"You nervous?" she asked Red Sun. Maybe that was why she was so...distant. Could be she was just scared! And rightfully so. Yasmin was acting all nonchalant, but damned if she wasn't freaking out a lot at the idea of getting in that bloody boat and trying not to get eaten while also trying to please the master!

Red Sun cut a glare at Yasmin.
"Nerves will get your killed." And she kept her look on Yasmin for just a bit longer before peering over towards the boats.  "But I was not trained to do battle with creatures in the river."
She supposed today she was going to learn. And it didn't help that a lot of eyes were upon them.

Nerves? Yeah, she was probably nervous, but she wasn't ever about to admit that. She'd die before showing that sort of weakness.

"Don't underestimate fear," Yasmin said as she squinted out at the boats that they were slowly bringing closer to shore. "You forget your fear, you forget your mortality, and you start to slip up. Don't get cocky, but don't let it paralyze you. That's the key."

She clapped her hands together and beamed at Red Sun. "Guess today's gonna be one giant learning experience, huh? Fantastic. Dunno about you, but I was getting bored of fighting in a ring!"

Red Sun's irritation was evident as her companion went on. But she didn't like this woman calling her out on things that were close to being the truth (or were the truth, in some (or most) cases.)
With an even deeper glare, she looked out to the waters and kept silent. There was no reason to keep talking to this girl. She would keep talking for herself anyways, being spoken to or not.

"Yes, a learning experience," she said through a small scowl, a scowl that grew when her master Karime began to approach his two slaves.

"Marvelous to see you two becoming so acquainted!" Karime went on, clasping his hands together in seemingly mock admiration. Though he was taking Yasmin's grin to be a good sign because.. well, he owned Red Sun long enough to know she scowled at everything.

"I hope the pair of you are ready to kill some crocodiles. Now, this is far different than what you're both used to. But of you are prime fighters. I know neither of you will fail to impress," he said, flashing a toothy grin at the pair as he beamed.

Gringringrin!

Yasmin kept the grin plastered on her face as Karime approached, though anyone that knew her would have noticed the way her grin shifted from sincere to insincere, the way it didn't reach her eyes. For Karime, though, it would do. Yasmin had found her masters never really cared enough to discern when she was being genuine or not. Maybe it was because they really believed she was just that stupid, or maybe it was because they just didn't care, so long as she was obeying.

And maybe Yasmin was feeling just a tad bit bitter and ornery, and in a 'testing limits' mood, because she flashed the man a beaming smile and swept down in an elaborate, flourishing bow that could rival those she'd seen foreign nobility perform.

"For you, master, only the largest crocs!" she said, and straightened back up. "I'm always happy to serve!"

If looks could kill, both Karime and Yasmin would have been dead ten times over, but she simply bowed humbly to her master and said, "As you wish."

Karime, satisfied with them both, barked his orders to his men to prepare the boots.
"It's time to do a little hunting."

Naturally, Karime would not dare put himself out in harm's way, so his most trusted of servants and hired men would steer the boats and bark the orders. Though none of the other slaves observed on the sandy banks were in chains, Red Sun would remain in her shackles, a stifling means to keep her safe, and also making it pretty difficult for her to consider killing crocodiles with efficiency. Though Yasmin was not spared this shame either. The only thing thankful about these shackles adorning their wrists and ankles were that they seemed to be light weight. Though where Red Sun wore a collar, Yasmin wore none.

Once the command was given, Red Sun stepped into one boat, and before Yasmin could board with her, a large man placed his hand on her shoulder and jerked a thumb to a smaller boat beside hers.

"This one's yours, slave," he said gruffly. And Red Sun turned to witness the act as the boat lightly bobbed beneath her form and the moving waters of the Niafi.

Yasmin couldn't believe they were actually going to put her in shackles for this. And keep them on her!

But she kept her mouth shut as she was adorned with the stupid things, and instead strode to her boat, a proud, flippant bounce in her step like she wasn't dreading this entire day, and like this was just another average day. You know, heading out on a tiny boat, ready to fight crocodiles. As one does.

How on Earth did Karime figure they'd be able to kill crocodiles in chains? Did he want to kill them?!

But she boarded the boat, even though it rocked beneath her and pitched her forward, making her yelp and stumble. She grabbed onto the edge and held on, knuckles going white.

"Wow. This chain is sure not going to be weird and restricting and make it hard to maneuver at all! But who needs range of motion when hunting crocs?" she said, as though speaking to herself, but pitched her voice loud enough to carry. "In fact, I'll bet this could double as a weapon! I could probably wrap the chain around their necks and strangle them all, eh master? Would you like that?"

She batted her eyelashes at him.

Karime glared daggers at the defiant little slave.
"Keep up that tongue, new one, and those chains will be around your throat as you hang from the gallows." ANd to his men he now turned and snapped his fingers, and soon the boats were pushing off the shore.

Red Sun didn't like the shackles either, and it was a pathetic thing to do to the pair of them, knowing they were hunting such a fearsome predator, but their master would take no chances.
She turned her back to her 'partner' and stared off towards the river bank, eyes distant as she became lost in thought, but it was evident something was troubling her, for her gaze was intense, like a fire of green.

Wicked Basket

Cassius wasn't much of a sailor, but he knew enough to manage a rowboat. The Croc Hunt was coming up and he wanted to get some practice in. He did not have an expert crew, but two male slaves that he had picked up somewhere. They would handle the rowing and all of the menial stuff that Cassius couldn't be bothered with while fighting extra large reptiles.

As he was preparing to get out onto the river, he saw two other boats go out into the water. He shielded his eyes from the sun with his hand and squinted so that he could get an early assessment of his competition. It was hard to make out the finer details and the passengers on the boats from this distance, but he knew that red hair anywhere. That was undeniably Red Sun. Wouldn't she be thrilled to see him.

Cassius turned back around to continue with boat preparations to find that his two slaves were staring off at the other boats as well.

"Back to work," Cassius barked at them.

The two slaves both jumped with a start and immediately went back to what they were doing with renewed urgency. They didn't want to end up being croc bait.

She felt her skin crawling as she looked around, and swatted angrily at an insect buzzing in her ear. And it was then she spotted Cassius and his boat entourage. And the insect returned to buzz in her ear, and she crushed it in a venomous grip. She should have known he'd be here. She could only pray he'd not row over to harass her. She wasn't much fond of water, and didn't want to appear like a fool before him. She had to remain cool and confident, lest she wind up in the belly of a crocodile.  Or worse...

As the boat cast off, Yasmin worked to keep her balance and took up her spear. At least she didn't have to row and fight! Though she was really, really not looking forward to this. One wrong move and she'd be overboard, and then it was over. It would be hard to board a boat this rocky from the water, at least without tipping it over, and if it wasn't the crocs that got her, she'd drown.

She took in some deep breaths, focusing, and kept her eyes to the water, looking for the swish of a scaly tail or the glint of eyes above the surface.
