Zoe stood in her blue jeans, long-sleeved brown t-shirt, and white sneakers waiting. Her sorority sister's were planning for Zoe's birthday, and she was to stay in the sorority house and wait. Although not members, Zoe was letting her little sister, Joy, come over with her friends.
The door knocked soon. "It's probably Joy," Zoe thought as she answered the door. But it wasn't. As soon as Zoe cracked the door, a man with a ski mask pushed his way in. He shut the door with one hand and cupped his hand over Zoe's mouth with the other. He held a finger up to indicate silence and made a slicing motion near her throat.
Zoe stood rooted in her spot. She had never known fear like this. The man took out rope and tied Zoe's hands in front of her. He took out a bright blue bandana and cleave gagged her with it. He then wrapped her mouth in many layers of clear tape, making the blue cleave gag still visible. He led her to the kitchen and sat her in chair.
The man tied Zoe's knees together and then tied each ankle to a leg of the chair. He tied her to the chair with ropes above and below her breasts and at her waist. Ropes at her shoulders further restrained her. He then ran a rope from her wrists to her knees that left her slack to move her arms, but she couldn't reach any ropes except the knee ropes, which were knotted out of reach. He picked up the chair and carried it to the living room.
He grabbed her face and growled, "Do you live alone?"
"Unh uh," she moaned shaking her head.
"Are they coming back soon?"
"Hmm [nodding]."
"Good!"
Zoe sat in her chair paralyzed with fear. She couldn't free herself. Then there was a knock, and the door opened...
=============================================
"Zoe, are you here?" a voice cried out. It was Joy!
"Unnhh uuuuuunnnnn! Mmmmmm!" Zoe cried as loudly as she could.
Joy and Jenny entered the living room. Joy was wearing blue jeans, a purple flannel long-sleeve shirt, a purple bandana headband, and black sneakers. Jenny had on pink athletic shorts, a lime green shirt, a bright pink headband, and lime green sneakers having come from practice.
"Zoe! What happened?!" Joy asked approaching her sister.
"Stop right there!" the stranger then yelled out holding a gun.
"Unnnhhh!" Zoe said.
"Wh-wh-wh-who are you?" Jenny asked.
"Shut up," the man said tossing a piece of rope to Joy.
"What am I supposed to do?"
"Tie her arms behind her back with her elbows at 90 degrees."
"Y-y-yes sir..." Joy replied meekly.
"Please don't!" Jenny rebutted, tears welling in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Jenny," Joy said tying her friend.
"Now silence her," the man said tossing a sock and black bandana at joy.
"And then tie her ankles, knees, and thighs," he added tossing more ropes at her.
Joy quietly shoved the sock in Jenny's mouth and cleave gagged her with the bandana. Tears streamed down both girls' faces. Suddenly, the fun in TUGs was gone. Joy tied Jenny's legs as the man said. Joy pulled a camouflage bandana out of her pocket and blindfolded Jenny.
"Noe, it is your turn," he said tossing three ropes, a sock, and a gray bandana at Joy. She sat on the couch next to her friend and tied her legs like Jenny's and gagged herself with the sock and bandana. The man brought a chair over and roughly shoved Joy in it.
"Arms behind the chair," he said.
Joy complied as the man handcuffed her. He then tied a rope from the cuffs to the chair. He fastened her waist, knees, and ankles to the chair. He tied rope above and below her breasts. Finally, he wrapped Joy's mouth in clear tape, emptying the roll, and blindfolded her with her own headband.
He approached Jenny and tied a breast harness and waist rope. He tied a rope from her ankles to the breast harness to hogtie her. He wrapped gray tape around her head to further gag her. He then used a white bandana to blindfold Zoe.
Another party goer then knocked at the door. More trouble is a-brewing.
=============================================
The next to enter was Dana. She had on jeans, flip-flops, and a pink lomg-sleeve t-shirt. She gasped when she saw the situation and ran help.
"What the *bleep* happened?! Was there a burglar?" she asked.
"Yeah," the man said grabbing her.
The man shoved a sock in her mouth and tied a brown bandana over it. He taped her mouth 6 times with gray tape. He then taped her wrists and elbows. He then taped her thorughly from just above her shoulders all the way down to her feet, smoothing as he went, before blindfolding her with a pink bandana.
Dana flopped like a fish on the floor trying to fight the tape, but being taped as she was made it ineffective.
It was a mass kidnapping. Bandanas were being soaked with tears as the girls feared the worst.
What an awful birthday.
