The Kidnapping

Master William watched excitedly as the three boys exited their cub-scout group meeting and as was usual for them headed through the woods which backed up to the streets that would eventually take the young trio home along the back streets of their neighborhood. He new this was the boy's established route from his month long observation and covert surveillances of these boys and all was set in motion for final activation of his plan to acquire his prey.

He new exactly where he would confront the three youth as they exited the woods onto a dirt bike trail just off a side street and well outside of any traffic, houses or unexpected company. The three chloroform rags were well soaked as well as a strong tranquilizer in three needles ready to plunge into the boys unsuspecting musculature.

He ran over his plan to stop the boys asking their assistance with helping him to his van as he sprained his ankle and needed help back to the vehicle. It was a perfect set up, as it worked well with the boys merit badges in both service and first aid.

Master William was able to make it to the prescribed location of abduction well ahead of the youngsters and eagerly unlocked the van set up the cloths and needles and walked the 500 yards up the dirt path to lay in agonized pain for the boy's rescue of him.

He did not need wait long approximately five minutes later he heard the unmistakable sounds of boys whacking trees, laughing and being boisterous on their way through the underbrush. Determining that no one else was around to hear his pleas of help he began loudly crying for help.

There was a sudden hush, then a scampering as the boys heard his agonized cries and came scampering to his rescue. Soon they were within sight and running to his aid.

A blond headed, sturdy body of perhaps 8 years of aged reached him first quickly followed by another boy brown haired and finally the smallest of the boys a straw-haired imp of a fellow two years younger than but clearly related to the first boy.

The eight year old: "What's the matter, mister you hurt or something?"

Master William: " Oh, thank heaven you heard me young man, I hurt my ankle while out looking for my dog who ran away, and I twisted my foot real bad, I have been out here for hours calling for help but nobody came until you. Do you three boys think that you can help support me back to my van, yes that one right down the road?"

Eight Year Old and the other's chime in unison, "of course where scouts you know, this is what we are trained to do, always prepared in a time of need that's our motto Mister. We would be glad to help."

Master William: "Scouts hey, that great, I sure am glad you guys came along, if you would just help me along, by letting me lean a bit on you then help me into the van where the first aid kit is then I can wrap my foot in tape and bandages and drive on to the doctor. You boys know first aid?"

Yeah, we just got our safety badges on first aid training last week; we are almost there mister just a bit farther along now." The youths replied.

Okay, You son to the younger boy can you open the back door and get the first aid kit from that cabinet up front?

Now you two, this might be a bit tricky as I am going to need one of you to hop up in the van and the other assist me by holding me up as I try and not put any pressure on my bad foot then ease myself up. Think we can do this?

Yeah, sure no sweat, as the boys complied, Master William took the fist two syringes out of his pocket, pooped the caps and depressed one into each of these two boys who unsuspecting this turn of event but yet unaware and so unprepared to defend themselves slumped down into the open doorway, Master William hearing the little guy coming back from the front of the van prepared the last syringe and as the boy reached him with a happy exclamation of, " I Found I-----!" Before succumbing to the effects of the drug depressed into his blood stream.

Quickly Master William pulled the three youths inside, shut the doors and bound and gagged the youth securely incapacitating them for the 300 mile trip back to his ranch.

Well, that went better than expected, Master William thought, driving cautiously but steadily along the back roads until he reached the first of many highways leading him home. With his reserve tank filled he would not stop until he reached the safety of his old ranch house nestled on the 5000 acres of land he inherited from his late uncle three years before.

In just over three hours he was pulling into the electronically controlled gate leading up the three mile drive to the house. Pushing his code into the digital pad, he then pulled onto the drive and drove up to the house around the circular driveway to the rear of the house and the three car garage he open the garage doors electronically and then pulled the van well into the space shut the doors locked them and then opened the rear door of the van and hoisted first one the another of the boys onto his massive shoulders and then entered the house and proceeded down a hall, about midway he proceeded to run his fingers three inches from the top of the wall until he found the secretly concealed and invisible seam concealing a latch which allowed access to the hidden stair way and the rooms hidden below the layout of the garage, and cellar. He punched in another access code and deposited his first boy then tied him to the single military issued surplus cot, and then existed the cell, locked it turned on the monitoring equipment to the rooms and proceeded to do the same thing in the next cell with the other boy, having him secured he proceeded back up the stairs to the still sleeping third youth who easily went over one shoulder for his trip down to his cell, once secured and locked safely away he then resumed in trip back up the stairs and to the kitchen where he made himself a light dinner consumed it and checking his watch and seeing he had six hours he decided to shower and then sleep four for or five hours as he wanted to be refreshed and ready for the evenings festivities when the boys awoke from their drug induced sleep some seven hours from now.
