Chapter 3: The Kidnapping
Ardelia walked into the living room to find the television remote lying on the floor, and Clarice asleep in what looked like a very uncomfortable position in the chair. She had to do her nightly routine as always. Grabbing a blanket off of the couch, she covered Clarice up snuggly, so that her friend could have some peace while she slept.
Lecter held his breath as he watched Ardelia do this. He was sitting on top of pillows, hiding in the cramped space that was left in the closet full of blankets. They had been collected over the years by his little Starling.
Ardelia turned, then, to shut the T.V. off. As she exited the room, she turned out the lamp. Lecter was silently questioning himself while he watched Ardelia. 'What am I going to do with little Ardelia now?' he pondered to himself.

The good Doctor proceeded to drug Clarice. Nothing that would harm her, only keep her sedated until her could get her out of the house and to his final destination with no hassles. He then searched for a pen and paper. He knew exactly how his plan for kidnapping Clarice would work…
