When Zhilhao Shuzi awoke, he was surrounded by darkness and the slight stench of rot and dirty bodies. He tried to turn around but found himself tightly bound by rope. He fought to free himself for a second but quickly gave up as he was bound too tightly, and all it accomplished was to rub his wrists raw. Time passed it may have been minutes or hours possibly days all Zhilhao Shuzi knew was that he was hungry thirsty and desperately needed to use the restroom when finally a door, that Zhilhao Shuzi hadn't been able to see before due to the absolute darkness, creaked open reeling the outline of a tall bulky figure whose face looks vaguely like a mashed potato, not that Zhilhao Shuzi knew that as he was too busy squinting due to the sudden light flooding into the room. When his vision finally cleared after getting used to the light he slowly opened his eyes to see the ugly man standing right in front of him, the man, who Zhilhao Shuzi labeled potato head roughly grabbed him by the waist and hauled him up causing him over his back and without preamble began walking swiftly down a dim hallway that seemed to be underground. "W-wait, stop." "Where am I?" "Why am I here?" Zhilhao Shuzi stuttered out his voice full of fear. Potato head only answered with a grunt, which, while annoying, didn't particularly surprise Zhilhao Shuzi as his face was so squished looking he wondered if Potato head could speak at all. After several more minutes of being treated like a bag of rice, another door came into view from the slight area Zhilhao Shuzi could see around Potato heads back, this door looked far nicer than the rest of the hallway, and Zhilhao Shuzi assumed that this must be where the big boss of whatever this resided, though based on the cages they'd passed on the way here, Zhilhao Shuzi feared that this was an illegal slave trade. Potato Head lumbered over to the door releasing one of his hands that were supporting Zhihao Shuzi over his shoulder causing him to unbalance and, in his hast not to fall off and smack straight onto the disgusting-looking floor grabbed onto Potato heads waist before quickly letting go in disgust however before he could fully release the nasty looking robe he was slung once again like a bag of rice straight onto the floor with a thud. Zhilhao Shuzi struggled to look up after his painful landing, but could only raise his head as he was still tied up. After finally raising his head, he saw a huge, round man sitting on what could only be called a throne, looking down at him with his eyes full of disgusting-looking lust. "Well, well, Maling," the fat walrus on the throne could "Look what you brought me today, she may just be the most beautiful one yet," the walrus crackled as he handed potato head, now known as Maling, a small bag of coins. Seeing that he received his payment, Mailing grunted and turned away, walking out the door and leaving Zhilhao Shuzi alone in the room with the walrus. "I was wondering what family a beauty like you was from but looks like it's my lucky day girly as I've had my men scour for any signs of a missing noble girl for all the surrounding towns and not a peep meaning I don't even need to ransom you I can just sell ya to the highest bidder," walrus said his mouth flinging a disgusting amount of spittle as he spoke" after hearing this Zhilhao Shuzi frowned realizing that this man and his idiot goonies thought he was a woman and that his previous thoughts had been correct, he was going to be sold! Zhilhao Shuzi opened his mouth, hoping to do what he did not know, but he couldn't get any words out due to the heavy terror that had permeated his soul. After a second staring like that, he closed his mouth again, resigned to not say anything lest it make his situation worse. The walrus seeing this smiled his disgusting smile down on Zhihao Shuzi "Looks like this little kitten knows her place already so good and obedient not talking back to her master aren't ya, well then I may make even more of you than I thought lots of young masters looking for a pretty new concubine around here you know" "of course I've gotta test you out first though lest i sell them a faulty product who don't even know how to perform" as walrus said this last bit he slowly, and seemingly with my effort raised himself off the chair and dragged himself slowly down towards Zhilhao Shuzi at this point he decided to just open his mouth and say he was a man because, though he didn't know what would happen if the walrus found out he wasn't a girl it was probably better than whatever the walrus was planning on doing to him right now. Once again, Zhihao Shuzi opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, his mouth clamped close… again, though this time not out of fear but because a sudden nausea enveloped him as his vision blurred and suddenly went dark, once again collapsing into darkness for the second time in as many days.

When Zhilhao Shuzi's eyes reopened, he was once again surrounded by darkness. What happened he thought, tarot creeping in had he been drugged again if so what had happened when he was out had the walrus done anything to him he thought with panic as he began to wriggle around wildly this time however he wasn't bound by rope but seemed to be trapped in some kind of sack. As he panicked still struggling to escape he heard the sounds of shouts around him "he's one of them" "Are you sure" "But not even the chanlor…" he heard as a chorus of voices cut through his panic and slowly his thoughts slowed in confusion then the bag moved a far too large looking hand reaching in from an odd looking hole at the top of the bag and pulled him out by his long fluffy ears. Wait, what the fuck, long fluffy ears. Zhilhao Shuzi's head spun once again, no longer in fear but confusion. He was painfully pulled out of the bag because getting healed by your ears hurts, shocker. As he was pulled out of the bag, looking down, he realized it was his robe. He slowly raised his eyes looking up at the walrus of a man once again as he looked up he shivered in shock fur puffing out the man who until now had only been looking at him in lust was now smiling wickedly "Well boys I guess we got our next big paycheck" he says chuckling with glee "your going to the emperor girly best ready yourself."
