The next day, Tori and Trina were getting ready for school. Tori's dad stopped into her room before he left for work.
Dad: Hi Tori, I wanted to see you before school today. I got something for you.
Tori: Oh hi dad, what is it?
Dad: I brought this necklace home for you, I hope you like it!
Tori: Oh, it's beautiful, thanks dad!
Dad: Every girl needs the right accessories; at least that is what your mother always tells me
Tori: I can't argue with that. Bye dad, see you tonight.
Tori and Trina left home and soon arrived at Hollywood Arts,
Andre: Tori, if you have some time this afternoon I would like to go over a new song with you.
Tori: Ok, check with me after lunch to be sure but I think I should be free.
Cat: Hi Tori, what a nice necklace, is that new?
Tori: Hi Cat, yes my dad gave it to me this morning as a gift.
Cat: It's really pretty.
Tori: Aww thanks Cat.
Tori's day seemed to fly by and before she knew it she was in one of the music studios with Andre working on his new song.
Andre: What do you think of this bridge, does it work?
Tori: I think it sounds great.
Andre: Ok, all I need now is to work on the chorus and we are done!
Tori's phone rings.
Tori: Oh, let me get that… Hello, What! Where are you? What are you doing there? Ok, stay there I will be right over.
Andre: Something wrong?
Tori: Ryder took Trina out after school, she just called to tell me that he dumped her and she needs a ride home.
Andre: Do you want me to come with you?
Tori: No, after I pick her up I am just going to go home for the evening, I have a lot of homework.
Andre: Ok, see you tomorrow then.
Tori started driving to the location that her sister gave her.
Tori: I wonder what Trina is doing out here? There is nothing here but old warehouses. I don't even see a car anywhere. Oh, there is the warehouse number that she gave me, #13 that must be it.
Tori parked the car and got out. She walked slowly to the door and tried it, it was open and she pushed her way in.
The hallway was dark, but she could see a light in the distance and made her way towards it. When she got there she was shocked at what she found.
Her sister Trina was tied to a chair and gagged and there was a pinpoint of light in the center of her forehead. Over to the side was a bed, surrounded by lights and cameras and recording equipment.
Ryder: Good afternoon Tori, how nice of you to join us.
Tori: What's going on here; what are you doing with my sister?
Ryder: I am not doing a thing with your sister, she is only here to ensure that you showed up and stay for the event I have planned.
Tori: Forget it, I am going to untie her and we are going home!
Ryder: I wouldn't do that if I were you, notice the red light on her forehead?
Tori: (hesitantly), Yes.
Ryder: That is a laser projected from a gun sight on a rifle which is trained on Trina. If you do anything I don't like, boom and a bullet rips through her head.
Tori: So what is it you want me to do?
Ryder: Tori our last dating experience did not get too far, mainly because the performance that I needed you for came up before I was really ready. Normally I get to sleep with a girl a few times before I dump her.
Tori: So all of this is to get me to sleep with you?
Ryder: Oh, no, all of this is to get you to sleep with me so I can film it and make the viewers think that it was all your idea. You get to use all of your acting ability, and charm to seduce me, and I get it all on film.
Tori: Then what happens to the film?
Ryder: Anything I want, I may post it on the web, or keep it for my own viewing pleasure. That sort of depends on you?
Tori: What do you mean?
Ryder: I mean that your continued presence at Hollywood Arts is considered by some people a bit of a nuisance. They would like to have things go back the way they were before you arrived.
Tori: So all of this is to get me to leave Hollywood Arts?
Ryder: Leave and stay away. As long as you are gone this film remains invisible. If you ever come back or tell anyone about this, the film is broadcast and you are ruined.
Tori: What if I just don't make your little film?
Ryder: Then I blow a hole in your sister's head, and I already have at least twenty people who will swear that they saw me in a club, miles from here. They even have a fake video of me singing that has a timestamp and date.
Tori: Nice to see you got over your fear of singing solo.
Ryder: One does what one must.
Tori: So what happens now?
Ryder: Now, you walk over to the set we have arranged, you face the camera and very slowly and seductively remove all of your clothes. You then motion for me to join you, I do and we proceed to have sex, in every way possible. We start with you giving me a fantastic blowjob, then I screw your brains out, and for the grand finale I invade that tight little ass of yours.
Tori: And then you release me, and my sister?
Ryder: Pretty much, unless of course you fall in love with me and decide you want to stay.
Tori: Not much chance of that.
Ryder: then you are free to go, knowing that I have everything on tape and knowing that the tape makes you look like the slut who initiated the whole thing. That way if you ever cross me, the tape becomes public and your career, and life; take a major hit.
Tori: Seems like you thought of everything, almost.
Ryder: Almost? No I thought of everything.
Tori: Really, you must have forgotten to get extra batteries for your laser thingy, because the dot is not on Trina's forehead anymore.
Ryder looks at Trina and verifies that the dot is gone.
Ryder: How did you do that?
Tori: I didn't but a member of the LA Swat team has just taken out your sniper.
Ryder: You can't prove anything, I will say it was all the sniper's idea and he forced me to do this.
Tori: That might work, except for one other little thing.
Ryder: What is that?
Tori: My father has excellent taste in jewelry, this particular necklace he gave me as a video camera and wireless microphone built in. This whole incident has been taped by the SWAT van that is now parked outside.
Ryder: How did you know?
Trina has been untied and walks up next to Tori with her dad.
Trina: Well for one thing, I told her.
Ryder: But why? She stole all of your thunder, got all of the roles all of the attention, you hate her!
Trina: She is my sister! We may be competitive and I may lose roles to her, but we are family and that comes first.
Tori: Of course, right after you devised this little plan I got a telephone call from someone else tipping me as to what you were planning.
Jade West walks up and stands near Tori.
Ryder: Jade! But you really hate Tori. She kissed your boyfriend and she has taking all of the good roles since she came to school!
Jade: You are such an idiot! Sure she kissed Beck, as a part of a play and maybe to get back at me for dumping the coffee on her head. But after that even I could tell that they were really just friends. And as far as her taking the roles; acting is a very competitive business. If Tori wasn't there, someone else would be. Tori just raised the bar for all of us, forced us all to improve our acting, and singing. Welcome to the real world.
Mr. Vega: I guess that about wraps it up. Ryder Daniels you are under arrest for Kidnapping, Blackmail, Extortion, oh and I guess the rifle aimed at Trina makes it conspiracy to commit murder. You have the right to remain silent and to have an attorney present. If you cannot afford one, an attorney will be provided for you. Do you understand all these rights?
Ryder: Yes
Mr. Vega: Care to make any statement?
Ryder: Go to hell. And take these bitches with you.
Mr. Vega: Not really the kind of statement that will reflect positively on you. You really should be more careful what you say.
Ryder: Yeah why?
Mr. Vega: Couple of reasons, right now the one that comes to mind is that it is a bit of a drive to the Police station. I am a cop doing my job, but I just may forget the cop part, and remember that I am the father of two girls that you tried to harm today. You better hope that doesn't happen.
Ryder is taken away to the police station.
Tori gives Trina a big hug.
Tori: Thanks Trina, I had no idea how crazy he was; I never thought he would have a rifle pointed at you.
Trina: That was a bit or a surprise to me too; I think I may need to go home and change.
Tori: Me too. And jade, what can I say, you were really a big help to us.
Jade: Just don't hug me! Besides, I didn't do it for you. I can't prove I am the best unless I can go head to head with you and win. I can't do that if you are no longer here. Let's face it you are the only serious competition at school, and I have to beat you to prove how good I am.
Tori: Well I know one way you can prove how good you are as an actor.
Jade: What is that?
Tori grabs Jade and gives her a big hug.
Tori: Act like you don't want to kill me right now!
