The next auction day was here and Uta was once again hosting it, he was dressed in a fine suit that was black on the right side and purple on the other, he wore a white mask on his face that had no holes but stitches instead, he stepped out on the stage and welcomed the audience that was cheering loudly, all ghouls were gathered here highly awaiting the auction to start, tonight's main attraction was you a human girl who was abducted after an incident that involved your parents deaths.

Human toys were always praised highly in the auctions because there weren't many humans who were strong enough to survive the torture of the ghouls who kept them. Uta let the show start and saved the best things for last, everyone was exited when the auction finally started, today big Madam had a lot of precious things to offer that brought her a lot of cash..

The big moment was finally here and the black box in which you were tied up rolled out on the stage. Uta announced the details while the box opened slowly and a flash of bright light hit your face that made your eyes hurt, a pair of arms grabbed your slender body and dragged your form out to the bright stage and tossed you to the floor, your body was only covered with a white dress that had 2 slim holders on each shoulder that showed your bare skin, everyone in this room was able to see the dark and red bruises that covered your fair skin from head to toe, your hands were cuffed together in front to make sure you could not resist, your long (hair color) hair fell in your face and blocked your vision for a moment until you were grabbed by the hair and lifted up to face the audience of ghouls in front of your eyes, your heartbeat was going crazy when you stared in the crowd of hungry ghouls who waited desperately to eat you, everyone was holding a small sign with a number on it that was probably for voting... your head turned lightly to the side and you saw a large man standing only a few meters away from you who seemed to be hosting this auction, his face was hidden by a mask that showed nothing, absolutely nothing, no holes for his eyes neither holes for his nose or mouth.. this mask was scaring you so much more than anything else in this moment..

Uta was standing there as he saw how you got dragged out from the black box and tossed on the floor, he had his microphone ready to gather the first votes when your scent found the way to his nose... his eyes suddenly froze as he recognized this smell, he looked at you closely and it was undeniable, it was really you... the color of your skin, the speed of your heartbeat and the intoxicating smell of your blood... a flash of a memory rushed through his head as if it was yesterday, the words he just wanted to say were stuck in his throat, he watched as Roma grabbed your head and made you look at the audience, your features were lightly different from back then but that was because you had grown a lot.. after a few minutes passed Roma gave Uta a strange look because he wasn't continuing, he snapped out of it and looked at you once again, he started stepping closer until he reached your small figure, he looked down at your face and your eyes looked at his faceless mask, he saw the small bruise on your cheek that he gave you the night he last saw you.. the words from big Madam echoed in his ear which she spoke before the auction started

"Remember, if you see something you like make sure to use the red card to take it of the list... you can have it for free then since your always helping me out.." Uta hesitated for a second but the sight of your brutally tortured body made him open his jacked and take out the red card to signalize big Madam that he reserved this object for himself, once he raised the card big Madam was speechless

"Ladies and Gentlemen... I am really sorry to tell you that this object will be removed from the auction list..." loud protest from the audience followed and big Madam jumped up from her seat as Uta gave Roma the sign to bring you to the back side, he apologized firmly and filled the gap with another attraction while he left the scene. Big Madam walked backstage and searched for him furiously

"What the hell do you thing your doing??" she rushed towards him

"You said if I liked something I could have it... so I made use of the red card you gave me once" she grabbed his collar and pulled him down to her level making his mask fall off

"Listen up boy! I only meant that for small fries but I never said anything about the main attraction! that girl is worth a lot of money, there is no way I will give her to you for free just because your my precious host!" Uta freed himself easily from her grip and brushed her hand prints off his suit

"Just to make something clear big Madam... I wasn't going to leave this place without paying a reasonable price.." he opened his jacked and took out a check book, he wrote a number on it and ripped it off

"Here, I think this should be a satisfying price for the likes of that girl.." he handed the paper to big Madam and her eyes formed into dollar notes once she read the amount, he picked up his mask and put it back on his face as he walked off.

Uta walked towards the room Roma had brought you and entered, he saw you sitting on the floor cuffed against the heater to prevent you from running, he shut the door and started walking towards you, you back up more into the wall if that was even possible as you noticed his presence, his heavy steps stopped in front of you and he kneeled down to your level, you closed your eyes in fear and leaned your head away, his glowed hand reached out for your face and captured your chin, he made you turn your head to the other side so he could see the scar on your right cheek, it was still visible after these years.. he examined your features carefully and wondered how old you were by now, his fingers let go off your cheek slowly and he stepped back, you opened your eyes and looked up to him, he grabbed the keys from the table and walked back to release you from the heater, he still closed the handcuffs once you were loose from the heater to bring you out of here without any trouble

"Stand up and follow me, if you scream you'll leave me no choice but to silence you" you swallowed in fear and nodded standing up, you walked closer to him with shaking knees as he lead you out of the auction building.

He brought you to his mask shop that was his home at the same time, he lead you inside his art room and closed the door, you saw the masks that were spread all over the room, every single one of them was creepier than the other, he surely had a sick taste... who was he anyway? You wondered since he seemed not to treat you as badly as your previous owner did. You walked along the wall were his masks were hanging and you looked at them not quite sure why, maybe you were looking for something.. but what? Uta then turned the lock on the door and the sound of it made you freeze in fear and turn around to look at him, he stared at you with this creepy mask still on his face, you had a bad feeling and the good thoughts from a moment ago were fading away, his foot set forward and you immediately back off into the next wall as far away as possible, he kept coming towards you letting your heartbeat raise, he was closing in until you had no chance to escape anymore, you sunk to the floor and begged him to stop

"P-Please stop! don't come any closer!" you cried out hiding your face in your hands, his heavy steps stopped and he looked down at your shaking body, the pictures from that night rushed back in his head and he had to pull himself together, he slowly bend down to your level and took both of your hands away from your face, your eyes were pressed closed as he picked out the key from his pocket to unlock the handcuffs, the heavy metal fell off to the floor as he freed you from the painful piece that had left dark bruises on your wrists, he slowly stood up from the ground and started walking away, you noticed that he released you and you decided to thank him for his kindness...

"T-Thank you..." you uttered out with an unstable voice, he hummed in return and continued walking

"W-Wait!" he stopped in his tracks and you swallowed nervously

"W-Who are you?" you asked with a furious heartbeat, he hesitated for a moment and silence over took the room atmosphere until his fingers slowly reached up to his mask to unclip the strings on it, he took it off and placed it on the nearby table, you saw his black hair that showed an undercut on the left side, his body slowly turned around and you were able to see his full face for the first time...

"My name is... Uta"
