When Nikki regained consciousness, she saw she was lying on a couch. She was tied to the couch and wearing weird metal bracelets. A few feet away was Maddie, starting to open her eyes, tied to a cushioned chair. And smiling at them was the hottie from the mall, Jason Wilson.
"You jerk!" was the first thing Nikki thought of to say.
"Hey, Baby, don't be so mad. Now we can be together. Anyways, my boss will be here in just a second," said Jason.
"N-Nikki? Where are we?" asked Maddie. She was starting to panic.
"I don't know," replied Nikki.
Slade walked in. "Hello, Nikki? Remember me?"
"Slade," said Nikki, sounding almost exactly like her dad.
"Hey, aren't you the man who's wanted for the murder of that one lady?" asked Maddie.
"Jason? Why did you kidnap Miss Fisher here?" asked Slade.
"Because I was following orders," replied Jason. "Isn't that what you wanted, boss?"
"You idiot," said Slade. "I asked you to kidnap Nightstar and Nightstar only. Not Nightstar and her friend."
"The more the merrier," said Jason. He smiled.
"No," said Slade. "If you had followed orders, we'd be more likely to get away with it. Starfire and Nightwing would be upset and frustrated, but would not panic. However, the Fishers would be so horrified that their baby girl was kidnapped and would cause chaos. You know how I hate chaos."
"But Slade, we're the bad guys," said Jason.
"Excuse me," said Maddie, trying to sound calm and professional, "you made a mistake. This isn't Nightstar. This is Nikki Grayson. Can we go home now?"
"I have not made a mistake, Madelyn," said Slade.
"I never make mistakes," boasted Jason. "I am too awesome to make mistakes."
Slade rolled his eye.
Maddie looked at Nikki. "Nick, this has to be a mistake. I mean, you can't be Nightstar. Right?"
Nikki didn't answer and looked away.
"Nikki? Hello?" said Maddie.
"Maddie, they didn't make a mistake," said Nikki uncomfortably.
"You're Nightstar?" asked Maddie incredulously.
Nikki nodded.
"So you lied to me," said Maddie.
"Well, it's not really a lie," said Nikki. "I never said I wasn't Nightstar."
"I thought you were my friend," said Maddie disappointedly. "I thought I knew you."
"Of course you know me," said Nikki. "We've been best friends since kindergarten."
Maddie shook her head. "If you were really my best friend, you would have told me. I thought we told each other everything. Guess not."
"Maddie, it's not that I don't trust you. I just didn't think you'd see me the same way. I thought you'd think I was a freak," admitted Nikki.
"Don't talk to me," said Maddie.
"Maddie…" said Nikki.
"Fuck off," said Maddie.
This really sucks, thought Nikki. I got kidnapped by an evil villain and his idiotic egotistical sidekick, my mom hates me, and my best friend won't speak to me.
"Richard, it is 7:00 and Nikki is still not back from the mall," said Kory.
"Maybe she's over at Maddie's for dinner," suggested Richard.
"I am going to check," said Kory. She dialed Maddie's home number.
"Hello?" said a voice. It was Mrs. Fisher.
"Hello, Danielle, this is Kory, is Nikki over at your house? Because we haven't heard from her in a while," said Kory.
"No," said Mrs. Fisher. "I thought Maddie would be over at your house. Where would they be?"
"They were at the mall," said Kory.
"I'm going to call Maddie," said Mrs. Fisher.
"I will call Nikki. If I don't reach her, I will call you back," said Kory.
"Okay," said Mrs. Fisher.
Kory dialed Nikki's number. She got her voice mail after five rings.
What's up, this is Nikki, obviously I'm not here, if you're my friends or family, I'll get back to you as soon as possible, if you are a prank caller, fuck off.
Kory was going to have to talk to Nikki about the 'fuck off' part. "Hello, Nikki, this is Mom, where are you? I am starting to worry."
Kory hung up and called Mrs. Fisher.
"Kory?" asked Mrs. Fisher when she picked up the phone.
"Yes," said Kory. "Did you get a hold of Maddie?"
"No," said Mrs. Fisher. "Did you reach Nikki?"
"No," said Kory. "What should we do?"
"I'm going to call the police," said Mrs. Fisher.
"I have connections with the Titans," said Kory.
"The Titans?" asked Mrs. Fisher incredulously. "As in Nightwing, Starfire, Beast Man, Cyborg, and Raven?"
"Yes," said Kory. "They are very reliable. Maybe they can locate Nikki and Maddie."
"Hopefully," said Mrs. Fisher. "Well, I should probably go. I have to make dinner for Brett and Kayla and Alex."
"Okay. I hope we find our daughters," said Kory.
"Bye," said Mrs. Fisher.
Ryan and his friends, Zach (yes, the same guy Erin and Jo are obsessed with), Toby, and Kyle were all playing poker while Crystla was passing out chips and dip when the phone rang.
"I got a royal flush!" exclaimed Toby, showing his cards. He grabbed all the quarters in the middle of the table.
"You suck," said Ryan.
Toby smirked.
"I got it," said Crystla, answering the phone. "Hello?" Pause. "Mrs. Grayson? Hi." Pause. "Hold on a second. Ryan! It's your mom!" Crystla handed over the phone.
"Hey, Mom." Pause. "Nikki's gone? Where?" Pause. "Oh, duh." Pause. "Sorry mom." Pause. "No I haven't seen her." Pause. "Okay, bye." Ryan hung up and put the phone back.
"Ryan, what's up with yo momma?" asked Kyle.
"Kyle, you aren't funny when you try to act like a gangster," said Zach.
"My sister is missing," said Ryan. "Mom's going crazy."
"Who, Nikki?" asked Zach. "That's funny."
"No it isn't," said Kyle. "Nikki's hot."
"Stop hitting on Nikki," said Toby. "She's too young for you."
"I just saw her at the mall three hours ago," said Zach
"You did?" asked Ryan.
"Yeah," said Zach. "I was buying sneakers and I passed by Nikki and this one girl and the stalkers were talking to them for some reason and then the stalkers chased me to my car and I almost had to run them over." The 'stalkers' was how Zach referred to Erin and Joanna.
"Who was Nikki with?" asked Ryan.
"This short blonde girl," said Zach. "I think she's Kayla Fisher's sister."
"You mean your girlfriend's sister," said Kyle.
Zach blushed. "She wouldn't date me," he said. "I'm too normal for her."
"Who cares!" said Ryan. "Where were they?"
"Near the water fountain in between Hollister and EB Games," said Zach.
"Where do Erin and Joanna live?" asked Ryan.
Ding dong!
"I'll get it," said Crystla.
Standing impatiently on the doorstep were Erin Hellene and Joanna Rosser.
"Shit! Wrong house again!" exclaimed Erin. "And it's the whore's house, too!"
"Crys, who is it?" asked Ryan. He looked over.
"Ew, it's the jerk!" exclaimed Joanna. "I should've known. Let's go."
"Wait!" said Ryan. He grabbed Erin's arm.
"Get off of me!" screamed Erin. "Is that Zachie-POO?"
"Yeah. He says he'll kiss you, but only if you tell me what I need to know," said Ryan.
"What!" exclaimed Zach.
"Okay. You saw my sister at the mall. When's the last time you saw her?" asked Ryan.
"Whatever," said Joanna. "We saw them near Hollister and EB Games. Your sister seriously needs to buy new shoes, because those pink sneakers are sooooooooo ugly."
"When did you see her?" asked Ryan.
"I don't know," said Erin, rolling her eyes. "4:30 or something like that. Can I kiss Zachie-POO now?"
"Zach just left out the back door," said Toby. "He told me he had to pick his brother up from soccer practice. It's at Justice Elementary School."
Faster than you could say, "Teen Titans Go", Erin and Joanna sprinted to Joanna's Corvette and drove straight towards Justice Elementary.
Zach came out from his hiding place in the closet. "Don't you EVER tell them to kiss me EVER again!"
"Sorry," said Ryan. "Anyway, guys, I have to go. This is serious. I have to find my sister."
Poll:
