Several weeks before, Dr. Moriarty looked at his books and noticed that with the building of the new hotel it seemed to vastly deplete his bank account. He looked back at his books and noticed that a good way to raise the necessary income was to auction off several individual's traits to the highest bidder. As he looked, he found that by doing so, he had raised over half his monthly income in one night. "I think I will be able to do put something together." He raised up an ad for Wilko and formulated a plan in his head.
*** Present Time ***
Moriarty was glad to see the staff of Wilko come through the door. He had made a quick stop over to the store in Rotherham and gave out several passes for a free weekend. Even though he only need 2 or 4 individuals, he was glad to have some extra people to 'play' with. He looked at the monitors and noticed that the bidders had already made it in for the auction. He called up his helpers, Ron and Don, telling them to get ready for 4 people to bring down.
He gave them a list of people to bring down. Alexa, Josh, Becca, and Steven were going to be up for auction. With their participation, Moriarty was set to offer them all a spot at his hotel. Even though they were big and burly, Ron and Don were really good at their craft and within minutes, Steven and Josh were soon down in the lab ready to go. He stripped them down and got them hooked up to the machine to gauge their mental capabilities and got them ready.
He looked at them both and decided that the American would be the first one to go, since it made him somewhat home sick for America. He got him onto the padded gurney and gave him an antidote to wake him up. Josh's eyes shot open and quickly noticed that he was belted in. "What's going on?" He demanded with an authoritative voice. He looked down at his naked body. "And where are my clothes?"
"Tsk tsk." Moriarty answered back to him. "You sir are here to help me out and let me put this on you." Moriarty put a collar around his neck to help with him from speaking up during the auction. Soon the curtains were raised and Josh noticed about 30 - 50 individuals of various economic classes. "Ladies and Gentleman, I would like to welcome you to my first ever trait auction. To set some rules, I will let you bet for the part you would like and the top 6 will get a trait from this young man." He pointed a cane over to Josh who tried to speak up but found that no voice came out. After about 5 minutes, Moriarty seemed to be happy with the amount. "Right, so looks like we are ready to start this round." Karen, one of his lovely assistants, made her way over to him and gave him an envelope. "Thank you my dear." He said as he nodded his head. "Looks like the first swap will go to..."
