Chapter 9
Froderick held something in his hands. Pulling the trigger, two little prongs shot out and hit Amanda in the chest. The girl slumped to the ground.
"What did you do to her?" Stephanie asked in horror as she sunk down to her friend.
"If you don't want to join her I suggest you stand up." Hans told her. The muscular man grabbed her and pulled her up to him. Froderick and Hans picked Amanda up and started to drag her along. Stephanie just did as the men said and they group headed to the LazyTown Inn.
Robbie and Sportacus headed outside to see if the girls were ok. They didn't get far when the hero's crystal beeped.
"Oh no." Were the only words that escaped his lips.
"What is it?" Robbie asked anxiously.
"The girls are in trouble. Come on." Sportacus said. He started to run and Robbie went after him as fast as he could.
Froderick, Hans, and Henri brought the girls into their room and went into the bathroom. Hans zip tied their hands behind their backs. The three men then left the room. To make sure that they couldn't get out Froderick put a chair up against the doorknob.
Stephanie crawled over to her friend. Amanda was still unconscious from being Tasered. At least she's breathing, Stephanie thought. What did these men want with them? Then it hit her.
"Sportacus will be here soon. Our plan is working perfectly." Henri smirked.
"You guys will never get away with this. Ra's will kill you for your insubordination." A tied up Jean Luc said.
"Oh I don't think so. Our brave leader was killed while trying to kill the enemy." Froderick said. The man pulled a Glock 9 mm out and shot him in the chest. A look of utter disbelief crossed Jean Luc's face as blood began to soak his shirt. Within minutes, he bled to death.
"Wha' 'appened?" Amanda murmured, awoken by the loud noise.
"We're in big trouble and I think those guys that got us just used someone for target practice." Stephanie told her friend. Amanda's eyes went wide.
"Listen, I have to tell you something, in case…" Stephanie stopped. "Dr. Feels Good called our apartment today. I'm pregnant." She finished.
"Oh no. They can't know that. We have to hope that Sportacus gets here quick. Does he know?" Amanda asked. Stephanie shook her head no. It was then that Hans and Henri busted into the bathroom.
The former grabbed Stephanie and Henri grabbed Amanda. The two led the girls out to show them something.
"This is what happens if you don't cooperate." Froderick pointed to Jean Luc's limp, blood covered, body. Both girls looked at each other.
"Now which one of you belongs to the vile Sportacus?" he asked. Stephanie was relieved that she had left her wedding rings on the bathroom counter.
"I'll ask you one more time. Which one?" Froderick said getting impatient. When they once again remained silent, the frustrated villain removed the zip tie from Amanda's wrists and twisted her arm.
Sportacus and Robbie reached the LazyTown Inn. Quickly they asked the man at the check-in desk if they had any people recently come to the hotel. The worker was curious and told them that he couldn't tell them.
"It's against the Inn's policy." He told them.
"Listen buddy, if you don't tell us, I'm gonna knock you're lights out." Robbie said.
"All right. There are new people in rooms 2, 6, and 10." The worker answered them. Sportacus and Robbie raced off. What room were the girls in?
