Throughout humans history there has always been slavery. Whether it be extreme kink play or unjust and unrightfully imprisonment for free labor, people have always found a way to treat people as property. This is far from the norm in our modern society, if one doesn't count retail jobs. Slavery is looked down upon and illegal. However that is our universe.

Audrei has a very different life and view on the matter, as she lives on earth 11387. A universe where slavery is fully legal, normalized, and based not on color or creed but rather on intelligence and ability to keep a level head in stressful situations. Society here is fully based off of weeding out the slaves from the owners.

               Audrei stretched as she woke up on the floor next to her bed. Today was finals and it was finally time to cement her place where she belonged. She studied long and hard and it was all going to come to fruition today!

         Audrei quickly showered and dressed in her favorite pink dress pulled in her waist and pushed up her bust, then she put her hair in a tight bun and made her way downstairs to greet her parents and their slaves.

       Her mother, Bette, was sitting at the table sipping coffee with her feet propped up on a man that Audrei only knew as Little Mr. Bitch. He had been her mother's sex slave since college. She won him during a raffle of slaves that didn't have owners. The two house maid slaves were serving breakfast and cleaning the kitchen. They were known as Maid 1 and Maid 2. Audrei's mother doesn't like to keep the names of slaves, feeling it's too personal.

        "Good Morning sweetie! Are you ready for your finals today." Bette greeted. "I can't wait to hear how well you're going to do. I wish we could see your grades. I'm sure that you're doing excellent though, you study so hard after all."

        Audrei smirked and greeted her mother. She didn't dare tell her mother that she already knew her own grade. Since the beginning of high school she had meticulously kept track of every wrong answer she gave. "Is Maid 1 going to walk me to school today?"

         "If you would like, dear." Audrei's mother said from behind a newspaper, one of the smaller headlines read 'slavery, is it ethical, or should it be abolished?' 

     "Oh yay! Also, may I say goodbye to toy this morning?" Audrei asked. Toy was her fathers sex slave that he obtained in college, he had found her under a pile of trash at a frat party, her body had been heavily modified to the point where she no longer had limbs or vocal cords.

       "I don't see any harm in it, I just don't know why you insist on talking to that thing.

         Audrei ran up the stairs and found toy on the bed. She seemed like she had been used last night. "Toy. Today is the day of my final exam! That means my last chance to keep my grades up. Thank you for being my confidant all these years. I'll see you later toy!"

          Toy seemed to shutter and squirm. A few tears fell from her eyes and her breathing seemed panicked. All she could do was watch as Audrei left the room to go to school.

           Arriving at school she hugged Maid 1 and joined the crowd. Everyone looked at her and sneered. Showing affection to the slave class was viewed as weird. The only times slaves were given such affection was if it benefitted the owning party exclusively or if it was a sexual slave. To show casual affection was to acknowledge them as equals.

         Not that anyone was surprised however, Audrei would have been voted most likely to be a slave in the yearbook. Everyone knew her as the dumb and lovable pet. No one told her though, in an attempt to spare her feelings. Whenever anyone asked how she did on a test she always answered that it was really hard and that she hoped she passed.

        Audrei didn't have many friends. She had no one to sit with before homeroom. She never even got a boyfriend. Usually couples would have a pact that if they were still dating by the time of graduation and one of them was of slave status, the other would sign up as their owner. Slaves and owners weren't allowed to have marital status. Slaves weren't allowed relationships at all unless it was dictated by their owner.

           Despite not having friends Audrei did have a sort of arch enemy. Alastor was super funny, smart, and above all else confident. With his good looks and brains he was sure to become of owner status. That didn't stop Audrei from bumping into him and almost starting a fight. It was the most aggressive she had ever been, and landed her a spot amongst the harem that would be his many slaves if they were to become of slave status.

          Alastor approached Audrei for her daily mocking. "Well good morning DumDum! Ready to fail your final test? I was thinking about what to name you once I sign those papers and Sluttube came to mind. Maybe I'll get you modified into a toy once I have you."

        "Fat chance Al-ass-tor! I'm going to enjoy dressing you in silly maid outfits and making you rub my feet! But that sex toy idea isn't bad. You might be lacking though, I'm gonna have to get that upgraded and numbed." Audrei shot back, stoking the flames.

         "Oh, you're so fucked. Your body is gonna be less you and more plastic once I'm done! Maybe I'll find a way to get rid or that stupid head of yours too." Alastor was fired up.

          "Whatever DumbDumb. Get out of here before I have to teach you that dumb is spelled with a silent 'B'." Audrei waved him off, almost shooing him.

         The bell soon rung and everyone was off to homeroom, the only class they had that day for it was where they took their final exam.

         The exam was a 200 question quiz, 50 questions for each major curriculum, social studies, Math, language arts, and science. The questions varied from calculus to ancient Roman history, the questions were jumbled and there were no multiple choice. There were 3 breaks and only one fourth of the exam was to be done during those testing times. The exams were to be taken all day.

        Audrei sat ready for her first quarter. The first problem was advanced algebra. She easily solved it, showing all her work and knowing she had the correct answer. She then did what she did on every test she ever took. She changed the answer and made the work match.

          She smiled knowing that her overall grade in school was a 68, less than a D. She had failed everything she could, making sure to get enough right to avoid suspicion. Hours of studying and grinding to make sure she didn't accidentally get something right. Soon her life would be set and she wouldn't have to ever worry about anything again. No more thinking, just simple following orders.

       2 weeks later.

         Final exams were over quickly. Audrei had fun with the writing prompts and made an absolute mockery of history.

         'George Washinghands used his lazer raptors to infiltrate and kill James Phonebooth before he was able to kill Apricotham Lincolnpark in 1994.'

          She cemented herself into the perfect position, and soon would be like the people she idolized. Today was the day that she graduated, which meant the day she got her collar and got chipped.

         Upon graduation it was customary to be given either a collar that would be fixed to one's neck during another ceremony or a leash and diploma. The ones given a collar would be brought to a second ceremony later that included family, friends, and either the future owner or a company that was looking for product to buy. If the individual didn't have a predetermined owner, the head of the household would hold onto the new slave until there would be a buyer or trade.

         There were a few companies that specialized in buying and selling new slaves. The collars were locked closed after a special tracking chip was implanted into the base of the new slaves spine. The locks on the collars were magnetized. If a slave removed a collar without permission there were several outcomes. The base punishment would be the classic whipping, that is if the owner could not be reached. It was up to the owners to determine the punishment though.

           Like collars, the chip implant could be customized to the owners liking. Some make loud alerts when a collar is removed, some induce pain, and on rare occasions some explode.

       Audrei was lost in what type of collar and chip her crush Alastor might choose for her when she heard a call from down the stairs. "Audrei! It's time to leave for the ceremony."

             Audrei was ready. In the past few weeks she had spent time packing her old stuff so that once she was enslaved her family would have an easier time throwing it all away and selling it. She even put prices on everything. She was wearing her prettiest maid-like dress that showed off her assets and made it easy to put a collar on.

         Audrei bounded down the stairs, "I'm ready! I was just putting on finishing touches."

           "Oh, sweetie, you look.. Well I think people might get the wrong idea." Audrei's mother was still clueless to her daughter's life goals, "But it is your day. I'm so proud of you, my little owner! Your father is already there with his product scouts. He reserved good seats for us."

          Audrei was so ready to be rid of all this toxic owner mentality. Maybe she could talk Alastor into the chip that releases chemicals that dull thought and memory. That took up most of her thoughts on the ride to the school. Once she arrived she joined her fellow studets  and was shoved into her place in line.

           Everything was down to this. Her name being Audrei Blank she was basically 3rd on the list. She was behind Alex Akron and Alyssa Andrews. To her the wait took forever. She wanted her collar now. The speeches drowned on forever. The graduation ceremony took place on the school football field the place of the most boring and drag on school events since auditoriums became too small for a whole school year worth of students to sit in.

            "To start us off we have, Alex Akron.."

            Finally they started.

            ".. Come get your collar."

          Alex slumped up to the stage disappointed.

              "Graduating we have Alyssa Andrews congratulations. Come get your leash and diploma."

              Alyssa ran to the stage, too slowly in Audrei's opinion.

             "Audrei Blank.."

          "Yes! It's here! The moment I've been dreaming of and working so hard for, for years!" Audrei started walking on the stage. Trying to do her best to look sad for what she knew would come.

            ".. Congratulations, come get your leash and diploma."
