Nancy Davis - Amateur Sleuth

Postby Tieup1 » Sat Jan 04, 2014 8:20 am

The crowd burst into a loud cheer, as Nancy Davis completed her second clear round of the Showjumping Competition. She had now become the County Champion for the 3rd time in a row.
After receiving her award, and the cheers of the crowd, Nancy was given a big hug by her mum.
Nancy's mum was really proud of her daughter, because Nancy was also a County Champion at Tennis, and Swimming.
She was also the Head Girl at her school, and had got some wonderful exam results.

''Don't forget after your horse has been stabled, come straight home, you have to get ready to visit your Aunt Joan'' said Nancy's mother.

The slim 17 year old Nancy nodded, and took her horse off to the stables.

An hour or so later she returned home, her mum had made her some dinner, and after they had eaten they went upstairs to Nancy's room to pack her suitcase, for her trip to see Aunt Joan.

Nancy picked all the clothes she wanted to take, and soon her bag was packed, it was then an early night, as Nancy had to be up real early to catch a train.

In the morning, Nancy's mum drove her to the station, to see her off.

''Give my love to Aunt Joan, and Jenny when you get there'' squealed Nancy's mum.

Jenny was Joan's daughter, she was 16, a year younger than Nancy.

As the train moved off, Nancy waved to her mother, the rail journey took about 4 hours, then it was a half hour bus ride, to the small town where Aunt Joan lived.
To pass the time away on her journey, Nancy was reading a crime thriller, she was interested in books of that nature, and was always trying to work out whodunnit, before the end of the book.
Time soon passed, and before she new it, Nancy had reached her destination, there meet her were Aunt Joan, and Jenny.

There was a short drive to Aunt Joan's house, and then Jenny showed Nancy to her room.

'' Anything exciting been going on'' asked Nancy.
''Funny you should say that'' squealed Jenny, ''There's been some strange goings on, up at the Old Bell Tower, and some valuable maps have been stolen from the museum''.

''Interesting, I think we ought to find out some more about this tomorrow'' said Nancy.

The next day, Nancy was up bright and early...................................................

Nancy sat there eating her breakfast, she was wearing a floral dress, which just came down to her knees.
Jenny soon joined her, she had put on a t-shirt, and a pair of denim shorts.

Once they had finished breakfast, they set off for the museum.
It only took them about 10 minutes to walk there.
They went inside, Nancy went straight to the empty cases, which the stolen maps had been in.
As she and Jenny were looking, a woman came up to them. '' As you can see girls, these cases are empty, best if you move along'', she said to them.

Nancy turned to the woman, and said ''The glass isn't broken, did they pick the locks'' ?
''How would I know'' sneered the woman, thats police business''.

''Just wondered'' muttered Nancy.
The girls had a quick look around the museum, then left.

Next stop was the Sheriff's office, they went in, the Sheriff knew Jenny well, he had been in the same class at school as her mum Joan.
He also knew Nancy, having seen her on her previous visits, to see Aunt Joan and Jenny.

The Sheriff told Nancy that the taking of the maps was a mystery, they were not in good condition, just maps of the Old Bell Tower, and the Abbey, and were of historic rather than financial value.
''Any fingerprints'' asked Nancy. ''None at all'' replied the Sheriff, ''Seems to me that the locks just got picked''.

''Mmmmm'' mumbled Nancy. ''Talking of the Old Bell Tower, what's been going on up there ? asked Nancy.

''Heard reports of lights up there '' said the Sheriff, ''Me and a couple of deputy's went to investigate, just found some empty beer bottles, guess it was just some kids''.

''Oh! thanks'', said Nancy, and she and Jenny left.

''What we gonna do now'' squealed Jenny. ''Lets go up to the bell tower, and have a look around'' whooped Nancy............................................

Nancy and Jenny soon reached the Old Bell Tower, it was only a short walk to the edge of town.
It was located on top of a small hill, not too steep.
They had a look around, they found some beer bottles, and remnants of some smoked joints, which seemed to suggest, that the Sheriff was right about kids being up there.
Nancy approached the door, on it was a notice which said KEEP OUT, PRIVATE PROPERTY, THIS BUILDING IS UNSAFE.
There was a padlock on the door, Nancy pulled it, but it was well and truly locked. Nancy and Jenny had a good look around, but found nothing out of the ordinary. They started to make their way back down the hill, when Nancy spotted something shiny on the ground. She bent down, and picked it up. It seemed to be part of a bracelet, with the letters AJ engraved on it.
''I wonder who this belongs to'' squealed Nancy, ''Any ideas Jen ?''.
Jenny's mind was a blank,''can't think of anybody off hand'' she replied.
Jenny then rang her mum, to tell her that she and Nancy were coming home.

When they got home Nancy showed Aunt Joan what she had found, like Jenny, she had no idea who it belonged to.

Nancy was very curious about it, while Aunt Joan was making the dinner, she went on her laptop, and found a list of the residents of the town.
There was only 5 people in town with those initials, she checked them out online, one by one.

''Bingo'' shrieked Nancy, ''I think I've got something''

Jenny came running in to see what she had found.

''AJ'' said Nancy, '' the woman who works in the museum is Alice Johnston''.

Whilst they were having dinner, Nancy asked Aunt Joan about Alice Johnston.

Her Aunt Joan told Nancy that she found her to be a strange woman, moved to the town about 2 years ago. She live in the converted Abbey, with Miles Jenkins, who is a local Historian, and is the organist at the local Church. ''I believe she is his housekeeper'' said Aunt Joan.

After dinner the two girls went upstairs to Nancy's room. They looked out of the window, they could just see the top of the Old Bell Tower, the Abbey was about half a mile the other side of the hill.

As soon as it became dark, the two girls slipped out of the house, and headed towards the Abbey.

Nancy had changed out of her dress, and into, a warm sweater, and some black trousers, Jenny also wore a sweater, with some blue jeans.

When the reached the Abbey, they saw Alice Johnston outside, she was smoking a cigarette, and was talking to a man, but they could not make out who it was.

''We need to get closer'' whispered Nancy.

The two of then crept quietly up towards the Abbey, using the bushes and trees for cover.

Then Jenny fell over, as she did, she screamed..............................................

Re: Nancy Davis - Amateur Sleuth

Postby Tieup1 » Thu Jan 09, 2014 9:32 am

Nancy and Jenny lay there motionless for a second or two, then they noticed Alice Johnston and the man coming towards them. As quickly and quietly as they could, they scuttled further into the bushes. Alice Johnston and her male companion looked around for a moment or two, then headed back to the house.

When the coast was clear Nancy and Jenny moved away and headed for the path, Jenny had hurt her ankle , so Nancy was helping her along. Unfortunately while she was doing this, she didn't notice her phone slip out of her pocket.

When they got back home Jenny wrapped some ice around her ankle.

The next day, Jenny had to run some errands for her mum, so Nancy decided to spend some time in the library. She went through some old newspapers whilst she was there. One story that caught her eye was a gold bullion robbery in the next state, the police had chased the thieves, but had lost them, on the outskirts of the town Nancy was in.

Then she found some history books about the town, years ago it was a haven for smugglers, and the Old Bell Tower was one of their haunts, there was also mention of secret passages, going from the Old Bell Tower to other locations.

Nancy got home, Jenny was still out. Nancy changed into her black jeans, she put on denim top on, and headed for the Abbey. She left a note for Jenny, telling her she was going to look for her phone up at the Abbey.

Nancy hunted around the bushes were they had been the previous night, no sign of the phone at all. Then she made her way down the path, looking feverishly at the ground for her phone.
As she was looking a woman's voice said, ''I believe this may be yours''.
Nancy jumped out of her skin, she looked up, and there was Alice Johnston , holding her phone.
''Er, um, yes, that's mine I think'' muttered Nancy.
''Indeed'' said Alice Johnston, ''And what were you doing out here'' ?''
''We got lost'' said Nancy
''I think you had better come with me'' said Alice Johnston, who then took hold of Nancy's arm, and led her to the Abbey.
Once inside she was taken to the study. Miles Jenkins the owner of the Abbey was sat there.
''This is one of the girls from last night'' said Alice.
''Do you think she heard what you were talking about'' said Miles.
''Its possible, I don't think we ought to take any chances, we should put her out of the way'' Alice sneered.
''Good idea'' snapped Miles.

Miles then got up, he walked over to the bookcase, pulled a small lever, and a small doorway slid open. Miles lit a lantern, and led the way down a passage, Alice followed behind, dragging Nancy with her. The passage was very long, and sometimes winding, but eventually they came to a wooden door. Miles pulled the bolts back to open it. Nancy gasped when she was pushed inside. ''This is the Bell Tower'' she shrieked.
''Yes'' laughed Alice, we have just used an old smugglers tunnel, those maps from the museum, came in really handy''.
Nancy looked around then she shrieked again, over in the corner was a pile of gold bars.

Nancy knew now she was dealing with the bullion robbers.

''Bring her here'' snapped Miles.

Alice dragged Nancy across the room, Miles began winding some rope around Nancy's ankles, he kept winding the rope up and around her legs, waist, and chest, it was real tight, Nancy took a deep breath as he knotted the top and bottom of the rope. She lay there cocooned in rope, with just her head and feet sticking out.

Alice then laid her flat on the floor, and pushed a wad of cloth into Nancy's mouth, then tied a scarf over the top, real tight.

Mmmmmmmmppppph ! groaned Nancy, Mmmmmmmmmmmpppppphhh !

Then a grinning Alice and Miles left her there, and bolted the door as they went.

Nancy struggled and squirmed, twisted, and turned, moaned and groaned, but she was trussed up super tight, and was unable to get free.

She just lay there hoping Jenny would find her note, and somehow rescue her.....................................................

Jenny eventually got home, after finishing all her mum's errands. When she went to her room, she found the note that Nancy had left. She looked at her watch, she thought that Nancy should have been home by now. She decided to go up to the Abbey to see if she could find Nancy.

She changed her clothes, and put on a blue sweat top, and a pair of black shorts.
As she was leaving the house, her mum came home. ''Where are you off to in such a hurry'' her mum asked her. ''Nancy went up to the Abbey, I'm going to find her'' squealed Jenny.
''Ok'' said her mum, ''But try not to be too late home''.

Jenny got her bike out of the garage, and set off for the Abbey. When she got there, all seemed to be quiet. Although she was a little wary, she summoned up enough courage to knock on the door.

Alice Johnston opened the door, she looked sneeringly at Jenny, and said, ''And what can I do for you'' ?

Jenny spluttered her words out, ''H -has Nancy been here'' ?

''Don't be silly child, why should she come here'' ? Alice retorted.

''I-I just thought she had'' muttered Jenny

''Well she hasn't, so she must be somewhere else'' laughed Alice, who then started to close the door. As she did, Jenny noticed Nancy's phone, on a table in the hall.
She was just about to mention it, when Alice slammed the door shut.

Jenny was real worried about Nancy. She got back on her bike and headed down the path, as she did, she saw the Sheriff's car approaching. Jenny felt relieved, now she had some help.

When the Sheriff saw Jenny he stopped. ''What's up, you look a little scared to me'' he said

Jenny told him about Nancy, and about the phone on the table.

''We''ll sort this out in no time'' said the Sheriff.

Jenny smiled as she and the Sheriff knocked on the door of the Abbey.

Alice opened the door, ''This girl is looking for her friend'' the Sheriff said.

''Yes'' shouted Jenny, and there's her phone look ! '' pointing to the phone on the table.

''Oh, deary me, you are a troublemaker'' laughed Alice, We'll have to deal with you''.

''What do you mean by that'' exclaimed Jenny.

Before she had the chance to say anything else, the Sheriff pushed her inside the house.

''Alice smiled at the Sheriff, and said, ''Shall we put her with her friend'' ?

The Sheriff just smiled back, and then he picked up Jenny, draped her over his shoulder, and carried her through the study towards the secret passage.

Alice held the lantern as they made they way along, and up to the Bell Towewr.

When they entered the room, Jenny saw Nancy bound helpless, and lying on the floor.
MMmmmmmmmpppphhhhhh ! groaned Nancy.

Jenny could then feel Alice's cold clammy hands tying her hands behind her back, then Jenny's ankles were tied together. The Sheriff then passed her a neckerchief which was stuffed into Jenny's mouth. Followed by a knotted scarf, which was tied behind her head.

Jenny was then sat next to Nancy.

''These two have complicated things, we should move the gold tonight, and leave pronto'' said the Sheriff..........................................

With the two girls, bound and gagged, and struggling helplessly in the corner of the room, Miles and the Sheriff began to move the gold, through the passage, and back to the Abbey.
They had got a cart, with 4 rubber wheels to carry the heavy ingots. After 3 journeys they had moved all the gold, back to the Abbey. It was then loaded into a van, Miles had hired.

The two men then sat talking to Alice, ''Once we have destroyed as much evidence as we can, we should get out of here fast'' said Miles.
''Does that include our unwanted guests'' sniggered Alice.
''Of course, I have plans for them'' laughed the Sheriff.

The three of them then set about , clearing away any evidence of their criminal activity, once that was done, they packed their bags, and put them in the van.

Then the Sheriff, and Alice went back up through the passage to the Bell Tower.

They looked at Nancy and Jenny, who were squirming on the floor, trying their hardest to get free.

The Sheriff, stared at Nancy, ''You'll not get free from those ropes'' laughed the Sheriff, ''When I tie someone up I tie them up for keeps''.

Nancy ignored him, and continued struggling.

Then the Sheriff put a small amount of explosive, connected to a timer, in the corner of the room.

MMmmmmmmmmmmmppppppppphhhh ! ! groaned Nancy.

''Don't worry, it will only be a very small bang, but it will be enough to bring this tower, crumbling down on you'' hissed the Sheriff.

'' I'll just make them comfortable, before we go'' laughed Alice.

She dragged Nancy right under the bell rope which was hanging down from the rafters. Then she lifted Jenny off the floor, and tied her to one of the wooden beams nearby. She checked their bonds, and tightened their gags even more, which made Jenny wince.

''Are you done now'' said the Sheriff, ''that explosive will go off in 1 hour, we want to be as far away as possible''.

''I'm done'' laughed Alice, and they left bolting the wooden door behind them.

Nancy glanced over at Jenny, Mmmmmmmmmmmppppppppphhh ! she moaned.

Jenny moaned back, and started to try to free herself.

Meanwhile Jenny's mum, was worried about the girls, they had been out some time, and she had not heard from them.

She went round to a neighbour, Chris Bennett, he was an ex-marine, who now worked at the local boat yard.

He agreed to drive Jenny's mum up to the Abbey...................................................

Re: Nancy Davis - Amateur Sleuth

Postby Tieup1 » Mon Jan 20, 2014 7:03 am

Chris and Joan drove up towards the Abbey, as they were driving up the road, they had to swerve on to a grass bank to avoid the van which Miles was driving.
Chris slammed on the brakes, ''Did you see that'' he yelled at Joan, ''That guy was driving like a lunatic''.
''That was Miles, I'm sure of that, and I think it was the Sheriff who was with him'', squealed Joan. Chris then continued to drive up to the Abbey.

When they got there they went and knocked on the door, no one answered, so they took a look around.

Meanwhile in the Bell Tower, our two plucky heroines were trying to get free.

Nancy was still trussed up in a vast coil of rope, and tightly gagged, she was squirming on the floor, Jenny was trying to free her hands, eventually she did it. She pulled the gag out of her mouth, and untied her ankles.

Mmpphhhhhhhhh ! Mmmmmmmmpppphhhhhhh ! moaned Nacy.

Jenny gave Nancy a big grin, ''When Alice tied me to this post, she didn't notice there was a nail tapped into the back of it, I rubbed the ropes on it, and I'm free'' !

Nancy looked over at the explosives, Mmmmmmmmmppppphhhh !!

Jenny gulped, time was running out, she raced over to Nancy and untied her as fast as she could. Then they tried to break open the door to get out, but it was too strong for them.

Back at the Abbey Chris and Joan could find no sign of the girls, ''They must be here somewhere'' sighed Joan.

Just then they heard the bell ringing in the Tower. '' I bet that's the girls'' yelled Joan.

She and Chris then ran up to the Bell Tower. Chris banged on the door, and shouted.

Nancy shouted back, ''Hurry you have to get us out, the place could collapse any minute''.

Chris barged the door a few times, but it was too firm, so he ran back to his car.

''What's happening out there'' shrieked Nancy.

''Don't worry honey, we'll have you out of there soon'' yelled Joan.

Chris then came running back with an axe, ''Stand well clear of the door girls'' he shouted.

Then Chris started to smash the door with his axe, soon Chris was able to kick a hole in it.

Nancy and Jenny didn't waste a second, they climbed out through the hole in the door, and to safety. They told Chris and Joan about the explosives, and they all ran back down to the Abbey.

Chris then phoned up the State Police, he told them about Miles and the stolen gold, and gave them a description of the van. Just as he had finished talking to the Police, there was a muffle bang. They all looked up the hill, and saw the Bell Tower crumble to the ground.

The next day Nancy and Jenny were teling Chris and Joan all about their adventures.
The Police rang, and told them that they had caught Miles, and his associates.

Nancy and Jenny smiled at each other,and gave each other a big hug.
