I thought about this while listening to my friend say: "Jeez, Tessa, THERE ARE NO CUTE KIDNAPPERS!"
To this I said, "Says you."
Let me know what you think, because if it's good I'll continue it.

I began running. The last time this had happened, the guy was faster than I was and caught me. I slowed down into a jog, but let it look like I was running. I heard the boy's feet behind me. I ran into a dead-end, fell down to my knees and turned around.
It was raining that night, and very slippery.
"You're mine now." The boy said
After all of these years, I still don't know what kidnappers see in me that makes them just want to take me. I wasn't all that pretty, I had white-blonde hair and giant violet eyes that I hid with blue contacts, and I was as thin as a twig.
"Please don't hurt me." I made it sound as though I was scared. I had been through this at least five times before, and I couldn't be scared if I wanted to.
"No worries, darling. Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around..." He began singing. He took my arms and helped me up. He started dancing to his tune.
This one was a very strange one indeed. So I began crying.
"Sweet punkin, what's the matter?" He asked me, turning my chin up to see him.
"I'm worried about my-my-my...." Oh, crud! What could I be worried about??? "my, sister. If I'm gone, who'll help her?" I asked.
"I'll take her, too, if you want." He said
"No! No, please spare her. Ju-Just take me." I said. That should do it. I looked up into his face, and saw him.
He had black hair, like a raven's feathers, bright green eyes that glowed in the lightening.
"Come, let's go." He said. I held my head down like I was some sort of slave. Who knows? I might be just that for this one.
"Keep your head up, and hold my hand. Look like we're happy." He said as we were nearing a busy area.
I held his hand, and began smiling at him. He put his arm around me and I leaned into his shoulder.
An old lady came up to us.
"You two are such a cute couple!" She smiled a toothless grin, "Here, take this." She handed us a twenty dollar bill.
"No, please ma'am, I can't take this." I said
She curled the money into my hands.
"I insist." She said, and walked away.
A few blocks later, I saw a homeless fellow sitting where I always saw him. I handed him the bill.
He smiled at me.
"Thank you, miss! Thank you!" He said.
The kidnapper looked at me with astonishment.
"What did you do that for? You know he's probably going to buy drugs or beer, right?"
"I just felt that I had less use for the money than he did. Who knows? He might just go and buy his daughter a birthday present. Or get his family some food."
"He has a family?" He asked me.
"Of course, his daughter is posted on 12th street, the one with the bear, and his wife is over on Woodlawn. By the way, don't buy anything from her." I said
"How do you know all this?" He asked me.
Well, for one point, I was kidnapped by his son. His son's dieing wish was for someone to watch his family. I thought.
"I make it a point to save up some of my allowance for them."
He just looked at me.
"What am I to call you?" I asked him
"Jordan. Master Jordan." He said. He couldn't have been more than 16. I didn't mind, I was only 15 myself.
"Who are you?" He asked me
"Carter. Just Carter." I said
"Well, here we are, Just Carter." He said. I looked up, and saw a mansion.
"Is this....yours?" I asked him
"Of course, whose did you think it was?"
"Do your parents live here?" I asked him
"Of course not! I kicked them out years ago.....they kept mooching off of me."
"How did you get this house?" I asked him.
"I invented youtube." He said
"For realz?" I asked
"Nope." He said
