Things calmed down in Metroville for a while. Sure, Team Dynamo got called out for the occasional burglar or riot, but generally it was pretty peaceful. Tony and his parents went to Silverwood, a huge amusement park near Idaho, for a week, so the Team was short one member. Nobody minded much - until the abduction, that is.
It started out as a gorgeous summer day just like any other. Sam got up and had breakfast like usual. He went out to check the mail, and that's where he ran into trouble.
Before he had even reached the end of his driveway, Sam felt something poke his back. A menacing voice growled, "Hands up. Don't move, and don't turn around."
Sam froze. He put his hands in the air and stood there nervously. Oh geez, he thought nervously. This is bad. Why did I ever come out to get the mail anyway?
"Okay." said the mysterious voice behind him. "Now walk."
Sam obediently walked forward, and as they passed under a tree, slyly snapped off a branch. He whirled around and threw it at his captor. Sure, it wasn't much, but it worked like a charm. The branch clubbed the man on the forehead, and he clutched it with both hands, releasing the gun he'd been holding. It fell to the ground, and Sam took his chance. He ran faster than he ever had in his whole life, straight for his front door.
Just before he touched the doorknob, a shock hit him that felt like a bolt of lightning. It was so strong, Sam passed out. The last thing he heard before everything went black was "Nice work, boys."
Oh no! Who's got Sam? And what do they want with him? Sorry, but you'll have to wait till Saturday for that! ; ) R&R please! And sorry for the length!
