An old woman stood next to a stand where someone was selling a little less than fresh fish and she wrinkled her nose as the smell, though in her hands she heald a weapon. The weapon glittered in the light, the hilt wrapped in leather and the crossection the of the hanguard and the blade was inlayed with gems, one a gentle blue, beneath it a deep red one. Two small lines of thin material were attatched just beneath the crossection, at the pommel it seemed to have some object which resembled a wing of sorts. The blade was lightweight and clean in color, lacking any distortions or impurities, the hilt was beatiful gold, of course not pure gold, though- as to not forfeit too much strength. Fine, dark blue details laced along the hilt and it was some sort of mystery how such an old woman managed to get such a weapon. The longsword's name was Eden.
The woman was in desperate need of money and would gladly sell the weapon at absurdly low a price, but she wasn't inclined to sell to the first buyer, she had to make sure that Eden went to the right owner. The sword couldn't be left alone for too long (sounds like 'Tickle Me Emo', lol!) whoever bought the weapon would have to make sure to carry it with them.
The old woman heald the sheath separate from the sword, keeping the weapon out of the plain brown sheath, apparently to let the potential buyers see the fine work done on the weapon.

Amber skipped past the old lady, then stopped and turned, her eyes on the sword. She turned back around and skipped backwards to the woman. "Hiii I'm Amber!" Amber greeted, then pointed to the sword. "Are you selling that?"

"Yes... but only to someone who will care for him..." She smiled as she patted the sword lightly, "It can't be left alone for too long... and don't be too violent either, it doesn't like that. Eden's a very gentle sword." She nodded. You could tell she didn't want to part with the weapon for some odd reason, "Oh! And keep him out of the sheath as much as possible." She said with a nod, she shed a light tear as she looked towards Amber, these were tough times and something had to be done, she needed money, badly. This sword was actually one of the last things she had, and certainly the last thing she wanted to sell.
(Feel free to show up and try to nab the sword instead of Amber! Lol, the more it turns into a competition, the better. Because trust me- you'll see something later. ;D Veeerrrrry special, this sword is...)

"Aww, well, if you like it that much don't sell it!!" Amber said with a sympathetic smile as she patted the lady's shoulder. "But if you do need to, I promise I'll take care of it!--er, him."

"I can't care for Eden anymore... how much are you willing to pay for it?" she asked, the woman had seen better times, and had only the sword left, and now the sword had to go. She smiled slightly as she whiped a bit of a smudge off of the weapon's blade and offered it to Amber to inspect. "Although, I'd have to warn you that there are some people who are trying to get thier hands on this sword... you might want to be careful."
(not much to say at the moment.)

Amber took it into her hands, glancing over the blade. "Uhhh, how much do you need? I really suck at pricing things. Oh, and I'll be fine getting chased around by random people. I mean, with my dashingly gorgeous looks, it happens all the time anyway."
Somewhere from behind a corner, a hiss was heard from something with a hunched back and buggy eyes. "Iiiiggooorrrr!!" it snarled before trotting away.

"Only enough money to get by, dearie..." She said with a sweet, old lady smile. "500 SP, I won't ask you for too much." She said with a nod, knowing that she way, way underpriced the sword, but it seemed like a person that Eden would take a liking to. If the student raised the price, than the woman would be grateful but she wouldn't take the liberty to raise the price, herself, that would be rude.
A small group of young men stood in the shadows, they watched the weird hunchbacked... thing walk away and then returned thier attention to the sword. "That it?" one asked from the shadows, "Yeah... and some girl is getting it! How is some puny chick going to know how to handle a weapon like that?" "We need to get it..." "Just beat the hell out of her and then it's ours- plan solved." The several people talked to each other in hushed whispers, it was impossible to hear them from where the woman stood.
(if anyone wants the sword and wants to take it from Amber... yo better hurry up... 0_0)

Duemi walked up, listening to the conversation. Duemi looked at the sword, it was indeed quite beautiful. Duemi wondered why the women was calling the sword a he. That was a little odd. But there was something special about the sword, perhaps it was the gold, but whatever it was Duemi just loved it. "I can offer 2,000 sp." Duemi said, finally speaking up. "And I can take good care of him." Duemi added, pulling out Zephyrsitrit. The dagger's silver blade caught the light and it seemed to glow. The pearly whit handle shined brightly as well. Duemi took care of her weapons, she hoped the women would see that.

"What the--?!" Amber glanced over at Duemi, half-surprised, half-pissed that she was trying to take her sword. "Dude, I'll give you 5,000 SP ANNND--" She dug into the pockets of her jean shorts. "--a Pokemon card! It's Flareon!! You cannot deny that offer!!!"

The old woman looked from Duemi to Reba, "Such a generous offer..." She said with a smile, "You can keep your card, though..." She looked towards Duemi, "Would you like to top her offer, dearie?" She asked as the sword glimmered in her old, scraggly hands.
The men in the alley waited silently, slipping through the shadows, the weapon was being sold for 5,000 SP. Much less than it was worth... very much less than it's worth... it was almost sickening.

Rain stepped up. "I can offer 2,190 SP and this claymore." She said pulling out the blood red sword, and setting it gently on the table, the point, easily a foot longer than the table. ((Sorry its such a short post))

the old woman shook her head, "I'm sorry, I don't need any weapons anymore..." she said as she looked at the claymore sword, "I'm only looking for some money to get by on." She said with a nod. (Jackie... she doesn't have a table...) She hoisted up the claymore, obviously she found it quite a struggle to lift the thing and she handed it back to Jackie, a bead of sweat from the effort formed on her forehead.

((Oh well!)) Rain frowned, and sulked away.

[[XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DO I WIN?! oh yeah no ooc]] Amber walked Rain leave then shifted her eyes around. She felt like she was being watched. Amber glanced behind her, then towards the dark corner, but she didn't see anything. Amber frowned, then turned back to the lady.

"5,000 SP, then..." The old lady said with a smile, "And it's yours..." she sighed as she held her hand out for the money, "Please treat Eden well." she said as she handed the sheath over to Amber, her soft green eyes glittered like starlight as she seated herself on the ground quietly, her gray hair rustled in a soft breeze. "Remember what i told you about others wanting the sword, though..."
"Shut up old hag..." Came the voice of one of the men as he withdrew a long sword, though compaired to the one Amber had just bought, it looked plain.
The lady ghasped, "Rowan!" She said, in that scolding, grandmotherly sort of way, her eyebrows furrowed.
"Yeah, you got a problem with it?" He laughed, "Well now that I don't have to worry so much about Eden, I have a little gift for you." He raised the weapon up and peirced it into the woman's side. "Another sword." He said with a smirk. One thing that wasn't known was that as of this moment, Rowan was the lone survivor in his family. The last of his kind. The sort of thing pleased him as he stood there. "Now, now little lady- I'd like my inheritance." He said as he looked towards Amber.
Several other men melted from the shadows and looked towards Amber, it was far from a fair fight.
