Part 1: Two Down Two to Go
What the Hell is this? Heather said upon returning to the dorm room and discovering the revealing little red riding hood costume propped up by the wicker picnic basket on her double bed.
As she glanced around the dorm room nervously, she wrapped her white fluffy bathrobe tighter around her slightly chubby body. Her hazel eyes skimmed over the rest of the room making sure nothing else was amiss.
Nope Heather's Dell laptop was still there on the desk next to her purse. Glancing over to her room mate's side of the room Heather seen that Debbie's expensive Nikon camera and case was still next to her bed
Chuckling this must be for Debbie, Heather realized since Debbie was the more outgoing of the two roommates; always invited to the fraternity parties and going out with a new guy every week.
Heather was more of a homebody. When she wasn't studying for exams, you could find her curled up on the sofa with big bowl of popcorn watching a sappy chick flicks like Casablanca.
The two roommates were total opposites. Heather was on the shorter side with long brunette hair and hypnotic hazel eyes while Debbie was a statuesque blonde with piercing deep blue eyes.
Hmmm Heather looked at the outfit with renewed curiosity, she fondled the cape's braided black tie.
Puzzled Heather realized it would be much too short for Debbie's tall slender frame.
Leaning forward Heather's fingers caressed the silky crimson cape with her left hand as she picked up the white low-cut peasant shirt.
A plain white envelope with HEATHER boldly typed across the front fell out of the neatly folded up shirt landing on the hardwood floor at her bare feet.
Heather opened the envelope and found two typed pages. The first being a scavenger list that she stared at for a second before putting it aside to read the accompanying note.
Her blood went icy as she read the typed out demands.
FOLLOW OUR INSTRUCTIONS AND DEBBIE WON'T BE HARMED
1. DON'T CALL THE POLICE
2. GO TO THE FARM HOUSE FRATERNITY HALLOWEEN PARTY ON PARK AVENUE TONIGHT AT EXACTLY 7 PM
3. COLLECT ALL THE ITEMS ON THE SCAVENGER LIST (BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY)
4. CALL THIS NUMBER (888) 555-7448 AFTER YOU'VE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
YOU ARE BEING WATCHED and DEBBIE'S SAFE RETURN DEPENDS ON YOU
You must use the items in the wicker picnic basket
The sinister note fell from her trembling fingertips floating in slow spirals to the floor landing under Heather's bed.
Frozen with fear, her mind raced with thoughts of what she should do next. Calling the cops wasn't her only option; she would just get to Debbie before them.
Quickly glancing at her wristwatch maybe she could catch Debbie at her job in the campus library. Grabbing her phone Heather rapidly punched the library's main number, hoping she could stop Debbie from leaving the relative safety of the library
"Hello campus library Mrs. Ferris speaking. How may I help you?" an elderly voice said on the other end.
Biting her lip in frustration, Heather replied. "Mrs. Ferris is Debbie still there? It's really important that I speak to her."
"Debbie? Well she was here a little while ago," Mrs. Ferris said pausing for a second, "but she had to leave work early her boyfriend James came by and picked her up. He said that Debbie's mother had been in a wreck."
Confused Heather thought to herself since when did Debbie have a boyfriend? Debbie was her best friend and had never mentioned any steady boyfriend and definitely, no one named James to Heather.
"Oh my god, they've got her already!" I realized almost dropping the phone, I faintly heard Mrs. Ferris inquire, "Is everything alright dear?" concern resonating in her frail voice.
Trying to cover up what I blurted out. "Oh everything's fine I just didn't know that her boyfriend had already picked her up."
"Okay dear, please remind Debbie that she needs to come in early to work to make up for leaving early today and I hope her mother is not badly hurt."
Hanging up the phone, Heather glanced at the strange scavenger list.

2. Clothespins
3. Bottle of Jack Daniels Whiskey
4. Black cat
5. Playboy Magazine
6. Teddy bear
7. Jar of Honey
8. Pair of Silk Boxers
9. Lock of Tan Fur
10. Fraternity Paddle
11. 5 lb Bag of sugar

Wow, how the hell was she supposed to get all of these things before midnight? Looking at the rest of the outfit, the short black skirt, cream colored lace-topped thigh high stockings, black leather stilettos and the black lace bra.
"Hmmm, damn guess matching panties weren't included," Heather said sarcastically.
Growling softly fine if it got Debbie back safely, she could go commando for the night. Hell Debbie certainly went without panties plenty of times coming back from her late night rendezvous.
Remembering the last part of the note, Heather cautiously opened the wicker basket finding inside: a twelve pack box of Trojans, various keys on a metallic key chain engraved YOU'VE BEEN NAUGHTY GO TO MY ROOM NOW, a metal butt plug still in its wrapper, a tube of edible strawberry flavored lube, a disposable camera and a list of names.
Picking up each item in turn and examined them, Heather snorted with laughter as she read the condoms RIBBED For HER PLEASURE at least they were thinking bout her pleasure as well in this kid napping scheme.
Your Targets
Johnny El Capitan
Tyler Mr. Chef Boyardee
Kyle the Bad Cowboy
Andrew the Gentle Beast
The muffled Crazy Bitch ring tone startled Heather. Even as she dug frantically in her purse for her cell phone, she hoped it was Debbie calling to laugh at Heather for taking her joke so seriously.
As she flipped her phone open, she heard the unmistakable sound of Debbie getting smacked and crying out in pain on the other end of the phone line. An angry masculine voice was screaming," SHUT UP BITCH!! Or I'll give you a real reason to cry."
"LEAVE HER THE HELL ALONE!" Heather screamed into the phone as she sank onto her knees in the dorm room sickened by what she had just heard. The reality of the situation sinking in, her knuckles turning white as her grip on the cell phone tightened.
"Good, now that we have your attention Heather. WHY the HELL aren't You Dressed yet?" the voice paused questioning Heather like a mother talking to a disobedient child late to dinner. "It's been over 30 minutes since you've received your care package Don't even ask how WE know Heather, Like the note says We're watching you. Get dressed in your sexy outfit, put your new toy in and sashay your sweet ass down to the Farm House at exactly 7 PM for the games to begin."
