Chapter 5

Stealing The Deed

Meanwhile about an hour after that I found myself tied to a chair in a dark room.

I shut my eyes, thinking about the sitch, when an eerie voice softly said into my ear, "Open your eyes Heather, you have guests.." I opened my eyes vaguely, to see my friends being dragged in by guards, their arms handcuffed. I gasped in horror.

"Guys, wha-how'd you get here", I asked in disbelief. Then my eyes narrowed at Syndrome. "What did you do to them" I demanded, my blood starting to boil.

"Why, I just had your little "chaperone" thrown in jail, so I could take these kids prisoner", he explained. Just then, a man with a laptop came in and approached Syndrome.

Sir, I've found the girl's weakness, it's a boy named Drew Flack." Syndrome smiled slyly at me.

"Really?" I gulped nervously as Syndrome motioned for one of his henchman to take Drew to a medical table. "Bring out The Death Ray", Syndrome instructed maliciously as a red ray was aimed at Drew's head. Syndrome turned to me and said, "The choice is yours Heather, either help me get the deed, or your precious little boyfriend Drew, dies where he stands!" I couldn't believe it! Here I was, held hostage at who knows where, my friend's lives in danger, our chaperone in jail, and now, to top it all off, a fantasy villain threatening to zap my boyfriend into submission unless I helped him get the deed to an amusement park! After this experience, I would believe anything!

Still, beside the point, I had to save Drew, and if he got the deed we wouldn't get killed, so I sighed and said, "Fine, I'll help you."

Syndrome grinned evilly at me and said, "I thought you'd come around Heather."
