Okay real quick reminder Stephanie is 17 and someone is following her everywhere she goes.

Chapter 3



Stalker

I knew what I had to do and I was ready to do it. I watched as the Tanners finished their dinner. Stephanie was looking more beautiful than ever and I couldn't wait until she was mine. As all the Tanners made their way into the living room to watch some TV, I jumped into action.



DJ

We were all watching TV when I decided to go and start cleaning up the dishes from dinner.

As I walked into the kitchen I noticed that the back door was open. This happens often because Comet knows how to twist the doorknob so he can go outside to play in the backyard. However, it couldn't have been Comet because he had been in the living room sitting in the armchair with Michelle.

I began rinsing the dishes when all of a sudden a man popped up from behind the counter. My instinct was to scream, but he put his hand over my mouth and dragged me out of the house.



Stalker

I had her, and no one in her family knew. I took her down the street to my car and shoved her in the backseat. Before I put the duct tape over her mouth she had just enough time to say, "You'll never get away with this. I live with 3- wait. Your Stephanie's stalker aren't you!" At this I wrapped the duct tape over her mouth and slammed the car door. I decided to go back to the house and write a note to the family. It would be from DJ.

Hey everybody,

I went out to the mall with Kimmy. I should be back by 10 PM.

Love,

DJ

I knew her friend's name was Kimmy from listening to the conversation during dinner.



Tanner Home

Danny called DJ back into the living room, but there was no answer.

"She must have put her headphones on. I'll go get her," he said.

In a minute Danny was back to say that DJ went to the mall with Kimmy and would be back around 10.

"Come on boys, it's time for you to go to bed," Becky said.

"Oh man," Nicky and Alex said in unison, "It's only 8 o'clock Mom! We are 7 we can handle being up late."

"Boys listen to your mother," their father Jesse said, "Go to bed."

"Night everybody," Nicky said.



3 Hours Later

"Danny, do you think we should call the police?" Ashley asked.

"No, first we should call Kimmy's house. I'll go do it now," Danny picked up the phone and began dialing, "Hi, Mrs. Gibler, has Kimmy come home from the mall yet? ...Oh she hasn't been to the mall. –Well, DJ left a note that the 2 of them went to the mall together. Maybe she just wrote Kimmy and went with Shirley or someone. Bye Mrs. Gibler," Danny hung up the phone.

"It turns out that Kimmy has been home all night," Danny said worried, "Michelle, Stephanie, I think you two should go to bed."

"Dad, I don't want to go to sleep until we find out what happened to DJ and neither does Michelle," Stephanie said worried that it had something to do with the letter.

"Well, only until after I call the police."

"Ok!" Michelle and Stephanie exclaimed.

Danny picked up the phone again and dialed 911. "Yes, hello my name is Danny Tanner, and I would like to report a missing person. Okay, the information is DJ Tanner, 20 years old, blond hair, 5' 8", 130 lbs, and she was last seen wearing jeans and a white tank top. Thank you. If you get any information please call 555-5555. Good-bye.



DJ

I was so scared of what the man would do to me.

"I know what you know," he said with a mean grin.

"Don't kill everyone Stephanie loves. Just kill me! Please, I don't want her to suffer so badly!" I begged.

"I'm not going to kill you... yet," he said unsurely, "Of course, I need to get some information out of you first. So you can stay for a few days at least. Stephanie will surely come to me when she finds out that I have you. I'll be back and don't move!"

He must not have been thinking straight because I was completely tied to a chair with no way to get out. He stuck the duct tape back over my mouth and got out of the van.

While he was gone I decided to take in my surroundings. Beer bottles were everywhere, and I could immediately tell that he was a drug addict and an alcoholic. I eyed a gun lying against the door and I became very scared.



Stalker

I went down to the gas station and grabbed a pen and paper. I wrote a note explaining where DJ was.

I have DJ! She is safe... for now. Climb down the tree outside your window tomorrow night at 11 o'clock. You know who you are. Don't bring anyone else.

I ran to the Tanner home and tucked the note into the mailbox.

A few minutes later I was back in my truck with the gun pointed directly at DJ's head.

"NOOOOOOO!" she screamed.



A/N: Sorry for the cliffhanger. I was running out of ideas for the chapter and I had to finish it quick. I wanted to make this chapter longer, but long chapters are hard to do. I applaud you if you are a master at long chapters. Review and tell me what you thought!
