The middle of nowhere, BFE
Tabitha Jean Stephenson, known as TJ by the few people that know her, sat at her desk flipping through tabs on her many monitors. To say she was watching a few screens would be an understatement. The set up in her office could compare to dispatch centers for the FBI. A tight smile stretched across her lips. Her plan was ready and her target was making travel arrangements, which created the perfect opportunity to execute her plan to abduct her target.
As she thought, TJ's mind started to wander back 30 years ago to her first grade classroom.
'NO!' she yelled at herself.
She would not let herself think about those days. Not now, not ever again. She wouldn't allow herself to picture the 6yr old friend with the long black hair and royal blue eyes turning around to smile at her.
'I said no, damnit!'
TJ got up from her chair, knocking it over in her frustrated haste to get away from her thoughts, and walked over to the coffee pot. As she reached for the carafe, she realized she had already drank the entire pot while finalizing her plans that night. She looked down at her watch and snickered to herself.
'Well, I drank the entire pot of coffee yesterday. Now that's it 2am I can make a fresh pot today without feeling guilty.'
Not that TJ had anything to feel guilty about. She worked out regularly, and had a very well toned body. She was 5'8, or 5'9 if you included the 1inch spikes of blue-tipped black hair pointing in all directions from the top of her head. Every muscle in her body would be well defined in the unlikely event she flexed in front of anyone. She preferred to be alone with her computers and could be described as an IT wiz or a martial arts expert. In the case of this mission, it was her hacker skills that were being used to the fullest.
It had taken 12 long years to find the target of her planned abduction. If she ignored the first 4 years of hospitals and therapists, also the 3 years she spent in college , and then there was the pandemic that swept the world into isolation. That's when she was able to get her act together and formulate her plan. Building and setting up the 'prison' had taken another 3 years. Okay, if she was honest with herself, it really hadn't taken long to find her target.
She poured herself a cup of coffee, set her chair back up, and went back to work. She stared at the lower right hand side monitor. Location Alpha was ready. The green, yellow, orange, and red lights on the screen showed which doors were open, which were unlocked, and which were both closed and secured. It resembled a prison control tower screen layout; however, from this location none of the doors could be controlled.
Once TJ finished checking to make sure everything was in order at Location Alpha, she decided to let out some of her frustration before burning this house down. TJ grabbed her aluminum bat, ripped that monitor off the wall and began smashing the screen into bits and pieces. The destruction of the house wouldn't be complete with just a softball bat, but ohhhh the fun she was having with it right now could almost be seen in her eyes. Almost. She didn't let her emotions out that easily, not since Miche...
'FUCK NO, NO, NOOO... Fucking shit,' She exclaimed, throwing her bat across the room.
She had almost let herself think that name, and she couldn't allow herself to do that. That name brought too much pain.
She picked up her phone to call Matti for a distraction. Looking down at the time on her phone, she knew she shouldn't. Even though she knew Matti would answer at this ungodly hour. This was because despite knowing TJ didn't have feelings for her, and knew there was no love reciprocation, Matti couldn't get over the perfection that was TJ.
Matti loved everything about TJ, well at least the parts she knew. Matti also knew TJ had built emotional walls so thick around herself nothing would ever be able to penetrate that fortress. TJ understood Matti was hoping against all odds that being her partner in this abduction and imprisonment would lead her one step closer into TJ's personal safety. TJ also knew that would never happen, but was still willing to use Matti to her advantage.
TJ knew she could never love another, could never be open to another. She had already found her soulmate, had already loved her soulmate, and then she had been betrayed by her soulmate.
Yes, Matti would answer her call. Yes, Matti would come over. Matti would do anything for or to her, but TJ could not allow it. It wouldn't be fair to Matti. TJ would have to face her demons alone tonight, or this morning depending on how you look at it. So, instead of calling, she sent a text with the newly acquired itinerary she had manipulated to her benefit.
0307 TJ - Target just booked a ticket kcys-dfw, 1 stop in Tulsa... of all the fucking luck, or my genius!
0307 TJ - flight 942. Come over at 8 and we'll finish this
0309 M - Mmkay. Want me over? Snuggles? ;)
0313 M -??? Maybe not. Sounded like it was a long night for you
TJ ignored Matti's responses; because she knew what they would contain. Her demons were closing in. TJ popped a couple of Tylenol PM to insure her nightmares wouldn't surface for at least for 4 hours, and passed out on her couch.

Cheyenne, Wyoming
Michelle didn't understand how every flight she looked at tonight had a stop in Tulsa. Really? Tulsa??? But she had to get out of Cheyenne for a week. She had to get away from her fiancee Adam for at least that long. She couldn't postpone the marriage longer than that. Her mother wouldn't allow it.
'Leave it to my mother to arrange a fucking marriage in fucking 2025.' Michelle muttered to herself.
She knew there was no way out of the marriage, even though she didn't love him, and didn't think he loved her. Michelle figured he was just in it for her looks and she wasn't sure why her mother would approve of it at all.
Except she did know why... Adam is a Child. No pervs, not as in she is getting married to an underage kid. He was Adam Child, as in the son and only heir of Nicholas Child, current owner of all fitness centers and gyms across the country. Of course, that is blamed on the 2020 virus. Uggg we all remember that nightmare and the financial fallout afterwards.
In all actuality, arranged marriages were becoming quite popular again. Since social distancing is still recommended, dating and falling in love is kinda tricky. But more importantly, Michelle thought, she knew she could never find love again. The love of her life and soulmate had died 12 years ago. Her marriage was both for show and to produce the first generation of children with the pre-vaccinated fertilized egg through IVF.
'Yup that's how we're making babies now, good thing I have a lot of vibrators... oh and sex with a man just isn't happening for me,' Michelle thought to herself as she boarded the plane for her last escape before marriage.
