The Kidnapper

Chapter 3:

They continued to talk, as if they were friends. Jenny searched the car for any weapon she could find. She slowly shifted her body, trying not to rock the car and alert him. She felt with her hand on the floor and suddenly she felt a cool metal object. His gun! He must've dropped when he shoved her into the car. She bent over and grabbed it.

"Andrew?" Jenny said, scared of his response.

"What do you want? You've caused enough and your scaring your poor mom to death." Jenny hesitated, but spoke up.

"Could I tell my mom something please?" The man handed her the phone and she spoke to her mom.

"Mom I just want you to know I will be fine. Okay? You have to trust me." Jenny fought her tears with all she had.

"Okay, baby. I trust you, but be careful." Jenny sucked in a deep breath and rose the gun to the man's head.

"Okay. I'm going to say this and I'm going to say this once. You unlock the door, you let me out, and I'm calling the police." Jenny felt as if she were a hero, but forced herself to hold back her pride for now.

"Jenny! Don't do this! I can't lose you!" her mom began crying.

"Mom, its going to be ok. Just come find me. I still have that chip in my phone. Just find me. I'll call the cops." the man unlocked the doors and stepped out with her. She held the gun to his head as she said her goodbyes to her mom.

"Okay. Tell me where we are. Now!" the man laughed.

"I don't know. I just started driving." Jenny rolled her eyes and called the police.

"911, what is your emergency?" answered the operator.

"I'd like to report a kidnapping. I have the man at gun point and I'm really scared. I stole his gun. Please, help me!" Jenny screamed, now realizing the horror of the situation.

"Ok, sweetie. Calm down. Where are you?" of course the operator was calm. She wasn't holding a murderer at gun point that could easily kill her.

"I don't know, but there is a chip in my phone. Just help me!" Jenny cried even more. Tears began wetting her shirt.

"Okay. I found you. Officers are on there way. Stay on the phone with me."

"Okay." the operator continued to talk to her about things like school, her family, and her friends.

Soon she saw flashing lights and heard sirens. Pretty soon, cop cars topped the hill and stopped beside her. An officer got out, gun raised at Andrew. Soon another car topped the hill, speeding toward them. It slammed on its breaks and Jenny's spine tingled. Soon enough, her mom was holding her so tight, Jenny thought her heart would explode. The officers were putting Andrew into the car when Angela spoke.

"Put him in there and give me a minute with him. Please." the officers obeyed as they stepped over to question Jenny. Angela went over to speak to Andrew.

"Okay. I'm going to make this quick. If you ever come near me or my family again, I swear, I will destroy you. Don't ever touch my daughter again. And know this, I will never  come back to you and I wish I had ever been with you in the first place. Leave us alone." she started to walk off, but then it hit her as fast as it had Jenny.

"Wait a damn minute! You killed my husband! You killed my husband!" Angela was about to jump on him when the officer grabbed her shoulder.

"Angela, Angela! Calm down and repeat that." the officer held his pad and pen in his hand.

"He killed my husband! On the video from the gas station, he asked my husband if he wanted to die. That was his voice." she pointed toward Andrew.

Everyone looked over, nut he was gone and the handcuffs were in the seat.

"What in the bloody hell?" the officer said.

"Where is he?" they all whirled around to see a gun aimed at Jenny's head as he drug her toward the car. He opened the door and shoved her in, a rag stuffed in her mouth and her hands tied with jumper cables.

"That's it, Angela. You shouldn't have said a word. Now, your going to pay." before the officer could reach the car, he sped off.
