Author's note: Sorry for that long delay, I couldn't think of anything to write.

Chapter 2: Rival

After LeeLee and Kim went home the next morning, Esteban, Dudley, and I went for a walk around the Tipton lobby. Dudley is Esteban's chicken. I think it's funny when he dresses Dudley, his pet chicken, up in a small Tipton outfit. Anyway, we walked around the lobby once, then Esteban put Dudley in our room and then we did it on our own. However, when we came out of the elevator, one of Esteban's old arch rivals came into the lobby.

"Uh oh" Esteban said stopping short. I walked right into him.

"Esteban! Why did you stop" I asked irratbly.

"HE'S here" he answered. I cocked an eyebrow.

"Who" I asked and looked over his shoulder "Oh. Jose".

"Well, if it isn't Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramirez" Jose said. Esteban glared at him.

"What do you want with my brother" I yelled stepping out from behind Esteban. All my friends know that I'm not the person that you should get mad. I have a very hot temper when people get too annoying or are being a bully.

"And look, it's his baby sister, Ellen Miranda Rosita Lorena de la Rosa Ramirez" Jose mocked "Isn't it cute! She's protecting him". I growled. Jose walked on past us.

"I hate that guy" I yelled behind clenched teeth. Esteban wrapped his arms around me protectively. I looked up at him and leaned in closer in. We hugged for a while.

"Come on, we better get back to the room. I've got to get ready for work" he said leading me up to the suite. He kissed me goodbye before he left. An hour later there was a knock on my suite. I opened the door (I'm not sure about the eyehole thing on the suite door) and Jose stormed in.

"What the heck! Get out of the room" I yelled. He smiled evilly at me.

"No way" he said. I was scared. What if he was going to kill me?

"I'll call the main desk" I threatened. He came closer to me and I backed up.

"Come on! I'm just trying to have fun" he said sinisterly.

"I'll do it" I said picking up the phone. Jose snatched the phone out of my hands and slammed it down on the receiver.

"You can't. I'm going to have some fun with you" he said lunging at me. I tried getting out of the way, but I was too slow. We collapsed onto the floor.

"Get off of me" I yelled as I struggled. He pulled out a roll of electrical tape and began to put it on my mouth.

"This is to insure that you don't make any noises" he said as he yanked me up and pulled me to the wood floor. He proceeded by taping me to the floor. I wiggled and wiggled but I couldn't get free. I closed my eyes and felt a lot of pain in my abdomen. After, I heard him leave. I was so weak that I couldn't open my eyes. My whole body hurt, but my ribs were the worst. Where's Esteban? I want my big brother! I thought. Just then, I heard him "unlocking" the door.

"I thought I locked the door" I heard him mumble. He walked in and closed the door. He stopped and looked around. He started to get closer to me. He gasped and I heard him run over to me.

"Ellen" he asked in panic.


Esteban's POV:

I could have sworn that I locked the door when I left. Something didn't feel right when I walked in. I could tell that something was out of place. Ellen. Where's Ellen? I thought. I felt as though it was my job to protect her after my parents died in a car crash when I was 18. I walked around to the kitchen and saw her. She had tape on her mouth and was taped to the floor.

"Ellen" I panicked. I was scared, confused, upset, and angry. I ran to the phone and dialed 911. I checked Ellen's pulse, it was really weak.

"Hello" the operator asked.

"Hello. This is Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramirez. My sister has been injured and I need help badly. Her pulse is very weak. I'm at the Tipton hotel, on floor 18, and I'll have the door open by the time you arrive" I said.

"Okay" she said and hung up.


That's chapter 2! Please R&R!
