"Yeah sweetie you go back upstairs." said Nate as he tried to get up.

"Okay!" said Natalie.

"Arrrgh my kneee!!! If Tay wasn't my brother right now I'll break him in half." said Nate as slowly got back upstairs.

Meanwhile back at Hawaii at the hotel Charles and Wes left to meet the kidnapper at the Hula Bar. They went around the back Charles was holding a case of money.

"I have a bad feeling about this Charles." said Wes.

"Dad don't worry once we get Cassie safe and sound. We'll go to the police and report this sicko." said Charles.

"That the smart you said all night." said Wes.

"I just hope Cassie is alright." said Charles.

The two waited for hours and hours but no sign of the kidnapper. Charles and Wes are both getting frustrated.

"Come on Charles lets go to the police. This is a wild goose chase." said Wes.

"Not yet! Just a few more minutes." said Charles.

"Charles it's been two hours already. I think he pulled a fast one." said Wes.

Suddenly Charles and Wes heard the video phone rang. Wes open up the laptop and it was the kidnapper holding Cassie hostage.

"Hello boyz!!!' said the unknown.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU? YOU TOLD US TO MEET YOU HERE!!! WHERE ARE YOU?" yelled Charles.

"I would lower your voice if I was you. People may hear you." laughed the unknown.

"Where are you? You got us hanging out in the back of the Hula Bar looking stupid. Where are you?" snapped Charles.

"I'm here hanging with your precious little black girlfriend." Oooh yes that's feel sooo good." said the unknown.

"What are you doing?" asked Charles.

"Having fun with her. What else! Her bodys turns me on. She's smells so good.. And her body is so soft and warm." said the unknown as he drooled.

"DON'T TELL ME THAT!!!!" upset Charles.

"Do you want to talk to her? Because I believe she wants to talk to you." said the unknown.

Soon the webcam viewed Cassie blindfold and tied up.

"OMG Cassie!!!" said Charles as he begin to cry.

"Charles....please help me!!!" cried Cassie.

"Cassie hang in there I get you out of here." said Charles.

"Charles I'm so scared." sobbed Cassie.

"YOU SICKO! LET HER GO RIGHT NOW!!!!! screamed Charles.

"I would I really would but I can't. Oh yes anyway I change my mind about meeting you guys at the Hula Bar." said the Unknown.

"WHAT WE HAD A DEAL!!!" YELLED CHARLES.

"I know but I just got out of the shower. You know a shower can do a man wonders and makes me even more hornier." said the Unknown.

I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU LAY A HAND ON HER!!" yelled Charles.

"Hey Pops, I want you two monkeys to meet me at the beach only this time bring 20 million dollars." said The Unkown.

"20 MILLION DOLLARS??? ARE YOU INSANE?? THAT'S ROBBERY!!!" angered Charles.

"Hmm I wondered what will happened if I broadcast myself having sex with your girlfriend worldwide?" threatened the unknown playing headgames.

“DO IT AND YOU'RE DEAD!!!" warned Charles.

"Such Heroism! No wonder Cassie loves you! Just have my money ready or else." said the Unknown hanging up.

"Dammit!!" snapped Charles as he punched a wall and brokedown crying.

Meanwhile, Jenn and Eddie have arrived at Marla's house. They rush up the steps to Marla's house and frantically start ringing the doorbell and pounding on the door.

Inside, Dana is alone with the twins.

"Okay, okay! I'm coming!" she shouts as she hurries down the stairs and opens the door.

Eddie and Jenn practically knock her over as they rush inside.

"We got here as fast as we could, Dana! Any word yet about Cassie?!" Eddie blurts out, breathing hard.

"No, nothing yet!" she replied, worried about the couple. "Go on in and sit down. And you Eddie---calm yourself! Remember your heart isn't the greatest!!" she reminded him.

They sat on the couch looking anxious and upset.

"God I feel so BAD about all of this!" Dana sympathized. "I thought your luck was changing!"

"So did I," Jenn sighed.

"I'm gonna get the two of you a drink," Dana offered as she went to the bar. "What'll it be?" she asked.

"I don't care as long as it's strong," Eddie said.

Dana poured them both some scotch on the rocks and handed it to them.

"Thanks. What I really want is to speak with Marla," Eddie told her.

"I'll call her for you now, Eddie," Dana offered as she picked up the phone and dialed Marla's number.
Candygwen

Back at the hotel Marla was in the room waiting frantically on any word.

"I really hope that they get Cassie back safe and sound. What is taking Charles and Wes so long?" worried Marla.

Soon Marla's cell phone rang she thought it was Charles at first but it was Dana.

"Hello Marla!" answered Dana.

"Dana my God I thought you were Charles." said Marla.

"You haven't from him yet?" asked Dana.

"No, I gave Charles the money but that was couple of hours ago." said Marla.

"I hope nothing has happened to him too." said Dana.

"I hope not either. He's my only son." said Marla.

"Well I called Eddie and Jenn and are over here now." said Dana.

"What!?!? You told them?" shocked Marla.

"I thought they knew Marla. And anyway I have to tell them. That's their daughter for crying outloud." said Dana.

"Dana let me speak to Marla." said Eddie.

"Okay Eddie." said Dana as she handed Eddie the phone.

batman642

"Marla?"

"Eddie! OMG! I don't know what to say!" Marla began nervously.

"Marla how could you keep this from me and Jenn?" he demanded to know.

"Oh God, Eddie..... please don't be mad at me!! I didn't know what to do, Eddie!! I panicked when Charles called and said Cassie was kidnapped!! As a matter of fact, I FAINTED!! Ask Dana if you don't believe me!! And then when I woke up, all I could think of was how to help my son!! He said he needed ten million dollars to get Cassie back safely and so I went to my safe deposit box where I keep alot of cash on hand, packed it into a bag and chartered a private jet to Hawaii as fast as I could!!" Marla explained, rambling nervously.

"And during all of that time, it never occurred to you TO CALL CASSIE'S PARENTS???" Eddie asked furious.

"OMG, Eddie.....I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I wanted Charles to tell you but he said he wanted to get Cassie back on his own! He respects you SO MUCH Eddie and he just doesn't want you to think badly of him is all! He feels responsible, but really this is not his fault! He would die for Cassie in a minute----you know that Eddie! This is just one big TRAGEDY and I hope to God it ends on a good note!" she said sounding desperate.

Eddie was quiet for awhile, trying to gather his thoughts.

"Marla, what's going on now? Has Charles involved the police at all? Are they aware of the demand for money?" Eddie asked.

"I---I'm not sure, Eddie. He told the Hotel Manager Cassie was taken from the room and I think it was reported to the Police, but I don't know if they know about the money. I just gave the bag to Charles and he and his father went to meet the kidnappers," Marla replied on the verge of tears.

"My God, I can't believe this is happening!!!" Eddie shouted angrily as he hung up on Marla.

"Eddie???"

Devastated, Marla couldn't believe he actually hung up on her.

On the other end, Jenn and Dana were anxiously waiting for Eddie to update them.

"Well? What did she say, Eddie?" Jenn asked impatiently.

Eddie shook his head. "Marla doesn't know WHAT'S going on! The money is gone and that's it---no news from Charles!"

"So we should call Charles!" Jenn replied as she scrolled down her cellphone for his number.

Soon Charles' phone was ringing.
Candygwen

"WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW?!!!" asked charles enraged.

"Charles it's me Mrs. Sutton." shocked Charles.

"Mrs. Sutton!!!! I am sorry. I didn't know it was you. I thought it's that kidnapper." said upset Charles.

"Charles are you alright?" asked Jenn.

"Do I look like I'm alright? Wait a minute do you know about this?" wondered Charles.

"Yes Charles we found out hours ago." said Jenn.

"Mom promise she wouldn't tell." said disappointed Charles.

"Charles we are Cassie's parents we have the right to know these things. Why didn't you tell us right away Cassie was in trouble."asked Jenn.

"Because I'm afraid of disappointing Mr. Sutton. I promise him that I would take care of his daughter and I didn't do that. Because of me Cassie is missing." said Charles crying.

"Charles you got to stop blaming yourself. It wasn't your fault Cassie was kidnapped. I wish you would've told us right away but other than that it wasn't really your fault. And I'm sure Mr. Sutton don't think less of you." said Jenn as she stared down at Eddie.

"What!?!?" confused Eddie.

"I want him make him proud of me. I want to prove to him that I am the man for Cassie." said Charles.

"You are Charles! You are! If we didn't we wouldn't let you two get engaged. Now Charles please you need to tell me what is happening now. Did you meet up with the kidnapper yet?" asked Jenn.

"We went down to the Hula Bar with the kidnapper told us to meet." said Charles.

"And??" asked Jenn hopping for a sigh of relief.

"It turned it was a wild goose chase!" said Charles.

"OMG!" said Jenn devasted.

"What worst now I got another message from him saying he's now wants 20 million dollars and he want us to meet him at the beach. He's threatening to have sex with Cassie worldwide if I don't give him the money." said Charles.

Jenn just stood there all choked up.

batman642

"What's he saying Jenn?" Eddie asked.

Jenn looked at Eddie and then at Dana and then back at Eddie again. She started to cry as she dropped to the floor.

"Jenn, Jenn! It'll be okay!" Dana tried to comfort her as she knelt down beside her.

Eddie grabbed the phone.

"Charles? Are you still there?!"

"I'm here, Mr. Sutton. Mr. Sutton, I'm SO SOR---"

"It's too late for that now, Charles!! I want to know EXACTLY what is going on! And I mean EVERYTHING!" Eddie ordered.

So Charles told Eddie the whole story from the beginning.

"TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS?!?!?!" Eddie exploded when he heard the latest.

"That's what they said, Sir," Charles said feeling helpless.

Eddie sighed. "Well then it looks like my daughter is as good as dead."

When Jenn and Dana heard what Eddie said, they both started to sob as they sat on the floor hugging each other.
Candygwen

"I don't believe you Eddie." angered Dana.

"Dana not now!!" said Eddie.

"No you need to listen. How could you say that about your daughter? How could you be so hearltless?" angered Dana.

"Look I love my daughter alright. But this situation looks hopless!!" upseted Eddie.

"God, I never thought I seen the day that Eddie Sutton gave up. Especially his own children. I acutally thought you were a man." said disappointed Dana.

"LOOK DO YOU HAVE 20 MILLION DOLLARS?" yelled Eddie.

"NO BUT I WOULD HAVE NEVER GIVEN UP SO EASY!!!!" said Dana.

"Dana face reality there is no hope!!! Cassie is a goner and there is no way we can fly all the way to save her." said Eddie.

"Let me ask you something Eddie when Lizzie was kidnapped did you give up on her? DID YOU?" snapped Dana.

Soon Eddie thought about time Lizzie was abducted and what stress and heartache the whole family went through.

"No, I didn't! It was difficult and it painful and it took about couple days but we didn't give up." said Eddie.

"You see you where determine to get Lizzie to safety. I know it must've been hard but you found a will and you found a way. It's like you never gave up on Jeron. You guys help me so much! You never gave up on me and Jeron so there is no way I'm going to let you give up on Cassie. I know you love your daughter. You gotta fight Eddie." said Dana.

"You're right!!! I don't know what I was thinking. But how am I going to help Cassie?" asked Eddie.

"Hello? You're a cop!!! Used your cop sense! And please stop blaming Charles. He's been through enough." said Dana.

"Alright come on Jenn." said Eddie.

"Eddie where are we going?" asked Jenn.

"To get a oneway ticket to Hawaii we are going to help Charles save Cassie or die trying." said Eddie.

batman642

"Dana will you be alright alone with Colin and Kalie?" Jenn asked, concerned.

"Don't give it a second thought, Jenn. The three of us will be fine," Dana assured her.

"If you need help, call Lizzie over, okay?" Jenn offered.

"I know that, Jenn. Just get out of here!" Dana urged as she shoved her out the door.

Meanwhile, in the dark cave somewhere in the Hawaiian forest, Cassie's survival instincts have kicked in. She has managed to rub her wrists up against a sharp edge of stone over and over again until finally the twine has come unraveled, freeing her hands.
Candygwen

Cassie finally remove the blindfold off her face. Cassie saw where she was.

"Oh God I got to get out of here. I'm so cold." said Cassie shivering in the soaking wet shirt..

Cassie quietly tiptoe trying to find her way out of the cave.

Cassie continued to tiptoe and staying wide alert until she saw she was halfway out of the cave. Then Cassie spotted the two henchmen that grabbed her watching a portable televison. Cassie also saw a dry shirt lying on the stand. Cassie was wanted to get out of here but she was also freezing. So she snuck quietly over to get the shirt. Cassie finally got it and switched shirts putting the dry one on, but as soon as she tried to leave Cassie knocked over the stand and the henchmen spotted.

"OH SNAP!!!! SHE LOOSE!!!" said the henchman #1.

"LETS GET HER!!!!" said Henchman # 2.

Cassie try to run but one of the henchmen grabbed her foot and tried to dragged her. But Cassie fought back by kicking on of the henchmen.

"Owwww my nose!!!" yelled henchmen #1

Cassie got up and ran but another henchmen grabbed her but Cassie elbow him and kicked him in the familyjewels.

"Owww my babies!!!" cried the henchmen as he felled down curled up like a baby.

Cassie finally escaped out of the cave until she ran into the kidnapper unmasked.

"OMG!!!! It's You!!!" shocked Cassie as she tried to escaped but kidnapper grabbed Cassie and drugged her. Cassie was out cold. The kidnapper picked Cassie up and went back to the cave. He saw the goons laying on the floor.

"Get your asses up? How could you two fools let her escape?" snaped the unknown.

"She caught us off guard." said the henchman.

" Figures!!!" annoyed the unknown.

"Should we tie her back up." said the henchman # 2.

"No I have a better idea. Pull the bed out. I'll put her in bed and tie her up. Look like we gonna have a little internet show after all." said the unknown.

Meanwhile back at Lincoln Heights Robin and Lulu arrived to pick up Lizzie for their double date. Robin rang the doorbell and Nate answered it.

"Well well well look who it is. As you know Cassie is out of town." said Nate.

" I know that. I came here to pick up Lizzie." said Robin.

"Gee I never knew you had a thing for little girls. There's laws against that." said Nate.

"Nate its a double date. I'm with Lulu and Lizzie is going with Andrew. We are going to pick up Andrew next." said Robin.

"You could've fool me. It's hard to tell the way you two was playing together." said Nate.

"We was horseplaying you sick freak." annoyed Robin.

"Who you callin' a freak?"snapped Nate.

"You, you military pyscho!!!" Robin snapping back.

"Guys what is going on?" said Lulu running in.

"Nothing Lizzie is in the kitchen. Lizzie, Boy Wonder and his fiancee' is here." said Nate.

"Don't keep her out too long. She's still a minor." said Nate.

"You know Nate I don't know what kind of crap they put in your head in Iraq but I am not the creep you want me to be." said Robin as he walked away.

"I got my I on you Robin!" said Nate silence as he walked back upstairs.

"What was that all about?" asked Lulu.

" I don't have a slightest idea." said Robin.

Lizzie out of the kitchen.

"Wow Lizzie you look so cute." said Lulu.

"Yeah if you were only 18 I would give Andrew a run for his money." joked Robin.

"Excuse you." shocked Lulu unimpressed by the statement.

"I was just kidding. You know you're the one for me." said Lulu.

"You better be kidding. Lizzie are you ready? Lizzie are you alright?" asked Lulu.

"Yeah why the long face?" asked Robin.

"Oh nothing I just have alot of stuff on my mind." said Lizzie.

"Well once e salsa you will forget all of your trouble." said Robin.

"Yeah it just one thing. I don't know how to salsa." said Lizzie.

"Lizzie its real easy. Let me show you. Lulu turned n the music." said Robin.

Lulu turned on the music and Robin took Lizzie by the hand and started to salsa.

"Just follow my lead shorty." said Robin.

batman642

Lizzie was a quick learner and soon felt very comfortable doing the salsa with Robin.

Lulu was smiling from ear to ear as she watched the two of them dance.

“Ohhhh…..Lizzie you look so CUTE! I can’t wait to see you and Andrew dance together!” she gushed.

When the music was over Robin asked, “So you think you got it now?”

Lizzie nodded. “Yeah, I got it. Thanks so much!” she said relieved.

“Cool. Let’s get out of here,” Robin suggested.

Just then the phone rang.

“Okay. Just let me answer that first,” Lizzie said as she ran to the phone. “Hello?”

“Lizzie, I need to speak with Nate,” said Jenn.

“Oh hi Mom! Guess what?! I can Salsa! Robin taught me and I picked it up in one lesson!” Lizzie said excitedly.

Jenn tried to keep her composure and not lose her temper with Lizzie, realizing how excited she was about her double date.

“Very nice. I hope you have a nice time,” Jenn said, carefully choosing her words. “Please let me speak to Nate.”

“Okay, Mom, hold on. NATE!!!!!!!!!!!” she screamed from the bottom of the stairs.

Nate came out of his room. “Yeah?!”

“Mom’s on the phone!! Pick up!! We’re leaving now!!” Lizzie informed him.

“Okay! You got your cell with you, right?!” he checked.

“Of course!” Lizzie replied as she, Lulu and Robin walked out the door.

Nate answered the phone upstairs. “Jenn? Are you and Dad still at Marla’s house?”

Candygwen

"We just left the house. We're heading to the airport. Flying to Hawaii." said Jenn.

"What!?!?!" shocked Nate.

"It turns out Cassie is being held for ransom and the kidnapper has been sending Charles and Wes on a wild goose chase." said Jenn.

"Why didn't Charles say anything?" asked Nate.

"It's a long story Nate. Look we are going over there to help Charles to get our daughter back." said Jenn.

"Should I tell the Tay, Lizzie, & Natalie?" asked Nate.

"No the best thing for you is not say anything yet. We don't want to upset them." said Jenn.

"Mrs. Sutton this could days even months. They have to find out sooner or later." said Nate.

"I know Eddie and I figure out it hasn't been 24 hours yet. If it takes longer than expected then you tell the kids." said Jenn.

"Jenn give me the phone." said Eddie.

Jenn handed the Eddie the phone.

"Nate you still here?" asked Eddie.

"Yes but I still wish you should have taken me with you." said Nate.

"Nate you have your duties at the house. I want you to keep an eye on those three knuckle heads." said Eddie.

"Will do Dad." said Nate.

"Make sure you check on Lizzie her double date, Natalie in bed by 8pm, & you makes sure Tay stays away from certain food because you know he's a diabetic." said Eddie.

"No problem but Tay is going to be a handful." said Nate.

"If he gies you a hard time pop him on his head." said Eddie.

"There's time I want to kickhim in his ass!" said Nate.

"Who doesn't?" laughed Eddie.

"Alright I'll keep the rest of the family calm. Good luck in finding Cassie." said Nate.

"Thanks! You keep you updated." said Eddie hanging up.

Meanwhile back at the hotel in Hawaii. Wes has an idea.

"Charles I got it give me the bag." said Wes.

"Dad whatsup!" said Charles.

"We are going to give the kidnapper his 20 million." said Wes.

"Dad we don't have twenty million dollars." said Charles.

"I know but I'm not giving him the 20 million he hope for." said Wes as he started putting bunch of rocks in the bag.

"What are you crazy? We can't double crossed him." said Charles.

"Charles he got one over on us the last time. We can't take any chances. As soon as he delievered Cassie I'll take her and you walk up to him and whack him hard with it." said Wes.

"Are you sure this is going to work?" asked Charles.

"I sure hope so." said Wes.

Meanwhile, Tay has arrived at Reuben’s house and knocks on the door.

“Who?”

“Reuben, it’s me Tay.”

“No Reuben lives here.”

“RASHAAD!” Tay said correcting himself.

Reuben slowly opened the door and let him in.

"Hey Tay whatsup!!!" asked Rueben.

"Arrrgggggh He's driving me crazy." angered Tay.

"Who your dad?" asked Rueben.

"No my brother!" said Tay.

"Hey I thought you and your brother were getting along?" confused Rueben.

"I thought we were too. I just don't get Nate sometimes. One minute he's cool! Another minute he's not. He's like freakin' Jeckal & Hyde." said Tay.

"Sorry to hear that." said Rueben.

"Will it be okay to hang around here for awhile?" asked Tay.

"Won't your parents worry?" asked Rueben.

"My folks are at Mrs. Antoni's house. I won't come back auntil they come home. I just don't want to be alone in the house with Nate right now." said Tay.

"Alright but not too late. I don't want your folks to worry. Anyway did you listen to that Jamie Foxxx song again?" asked Rueben.

"Not yet. I gotta with me." said Tay.

"Good I'll play the track and you write the lyrics while listening to the song. Afterward read the lyrics carefully and tell me what you think why your dad went off." said Rueben.

"Okay" said Tay.

Meanwhile back at Hawaii it was close to midnight and Charles & Wes arrived at the beach with a bag full of rocks.

"I hope this works. This time." said Charles.

Suddenly they saw a black van arrive. The van stopped and the kidnapper got out of the van.

"Well well well look who finally showed up." said Charles.

"Well look who it is it's Chuck and money bags." said the unknown.

"Where's Cassie?" asked Charles.

"Relax Charlie! Ms. Brown Sugar is in the back of the van. And looks like you old man got my money ready." said the kidnapper.

"Let Cassie go." said Charles.

"First things first! I want the cash." said the kidnapper.

"Dad you better let him have it." said Charles.

"With pleasure." said Wes.

Wes walked up to the kidnapper and swung the bag full of rocks and hit the kidnapper. The kidnapper fell down on the sand. Soon two of the henchmen jumped on Wes but Charles came swinging and started beating up both henchmen. Then Charles heard a scream in the back van.. Charles went inside the van and found someone inside a bodybag with two legs sticking out kicking and screaming.

"That must be Cassie." Charles hope.

Charles picked up the moving body and got out of the van.

"Don't worry beautiful it's me. I told you I'll come through for you." siad Charles as he got out of the van.

Meanwhile Wes got up and was fighting back the goon until he saw Charles with a suppose to be Cassie.

"Dad I got Cassie. Lets go." said Charles.

Wes and Charles barely escaped. While the kidnapper lay down laughing. Later Charles and Wes returned to the hotel lobby.

"Oh Cassie thank God I found and rescue. You must be scared half to death." said Charles.

"Oh Charles I think you better remove the body bay off of her." said Wes.

"Right dadd." said Charles.

Charles took off the body bag but surprisely it wasn't Cassie but it was Sabrina with a tan.

"Surprise Charles!!! Remember me.?" said Sabrina.

"SABRINA!!! WTF!!!!" yelled Charles.

batman642

“Charles, who in the world is this?!” Wes demanded, pointing at Sabrina.

Charles was so upset he was practically hyperventilating and couldn’t even answer.

“Tell him, Charles!” Sabrina taunted. “Go ahead and tell Daddy all about t the bad old lady who tried to take advantage of the boy scout and his little prima-donna girlfriend!”

Wes looked shocked.

“You mean YOU’RE the woman scorned?” he asked, remembering what Charles said earlier.

“Oh? So he HAS told you about me? I’m glad to know he hasn’t forgotten about me and that I made an impression on him!” she replied sarcastically.

Finally Charles’ breathing calmed down enough for him to talk.

“Sabrina, enough is enough! Now what’s the deal?! What do you want from me?! I wanna know so we can end this thing once and for all!! I want Cassie back---you got that?!!” Charles demanded.

Candygwen

"Seeing you suffer and cry like a little baby is more of what I wanted. Anyway The Unknown knew you would pull something lame like this. Hitting him with a bag of rocks very smart move." said Sabrina sarcasticly.

"Look I don't know what you are trying to prove but you have already made your point. I want my Cassie back NOW!!!" said Charles.

"Don't tell me!!! Tell the kidnapper. He's the one who still got your little princess." said Sabrina.

"Look I'm tired of playing these games. I want to know where Cassie is now." said Charles as he begin to lose patience.

"Why are you doing all this?" asked Wes.

"I told you. To make Charles suffer. Anyway, this wasn't my plan to kidnap Cassie. It's the kidnapper. You see it's obvivously he has some unfinished business with Cassie. Especially after Cassie hurt his pride in the club.

"In the bathroom? What are you talking about?" asked Charles.

"I'm talking about that little double date she went one with the HIV girl and her boyfriend. You two must've an issue." said Sabrina.

"Charles what is she talking about?" asked Wes.

Soon Eddie and Jenn walked in and spotted Charles.

batman642

They raced up to Charles, Wes and Sabrina.

“Charles! We got here as fast as we could!” Jenn said out of breath as she grabbed and hugged him.

“Mrs. Sutton, please forgive me for not telling you about this right away!” Charles apologized hugging her back.

“My only concern now is getting my daughter back safe and sound,” Jenn explained as she pulled back and looked him in the eye.

Eddie put a firm hand on Charles’ shoulder. Charles turned around to face him and to his surprise, instead of punching him, Eddie grabbed him and hugged him.

“How are you holding up?” he asked Charles.

Charles shook his head. “Not too good. I thought we finally got Cassie back, but no such luck!” he answered as he gave Sabrina a dirty look.

“Who is this?” Eddie asked about Sabrina.

“A thorn in my side--and Cassie’s too,” Charles replied.

Sabrina stuck her hand out to Eddie. “Allow me to introduce myself. Sabrina Gaspar.”

“She knows who kidnapped Cassie!” Wes told Eddie.

“OH! Can you help us?” Jenn asked Sabrina anxiously.

Sabrina merely gave Jenn an evil grin.

Candygwen

"Maybe I will or maybe I won't" laughed Sabrina.

Then Jenn went and attacked Sabrina like crazy. Eddie and Wes pulled Jenn away from.

"Oh yeah you will definitely hear from my attorney." said Sabrina.

"Well you better get yourself a good one. Because after this I'm taking you and that sick creep and whoever behind this whole game in for kidnapping my daughter." snapped Eddie.

Suddenly the video phone rang.

"I would answer the phone if I was you." said Sabrina.

Charles answered it and it was the kidnapper with Cassie in bed tied up.

"OMG!!!!" said Jenn horrified in what she saw.

"Oh no Casssie." said hurt Eddie.

"You know Charles that was a very bad move you just made." said the unknown as he put an icepack on his ribs.

"Punk you deserve it." snapped Charles.

"Well well well!!! Look like you and pops brought company." said the unknown.

"Who are you? You sick bastard?" asked Eddie.

"Oh Charles you disappoint me bigtime! At least you could've told them how much fun I've been playing with your girlfriend." said the unknown licking Cassie's face.

"THAT'S MY DAUGHTER YOU BASTARD!!!!" yelled Eddie.

"Nice to meet you dad!!! And you must be Cassie's mommy!!!" said the unknown.

"You get off of her right now!" said Jenn demanded.

"Wow you got so much anger in you. I should've took the mother instead of the daughter. I wonder if her body is as softer and warm like her daughter." said the unknown as he tried to pull of the shirt Cassie was wearing.

Cassie resisted and he slapped her across the face hard.

"YOU SICK SADISTIC BASTARD!! I'LL KILL YOU!!I'LL KILL YOU!!!" yelled Jenn.

Eddie and Wes try to calm down Jenn.

"Oh Gee did I hurt mommy's feelings?" asked the unknown.

"Look you S.O.B.!!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! YOU BETTER LET CASSIE GO NOW BEOFRE I REALLY GET PISSED OFF!!!" yelled Charles.

"You know that language is really getting kinda' old! But in the next two hours Cassie and I are going to have the best sex live worldwide." said the unknown.

"Oh please don't do this to my daughter. I'll give you anything. Please don't violate her like this." begged Jenn.

"Sorry but that boyfriend of hers should've thought about that before he hit me with a bag of rocks. he had his chance but he blew it. Now if you excuse me I better go warm up now." said the unknown. hanging up.

"Noooooo!!!" cried Jenn.

Charles was fed up and grabbed Sabrina and he pulled out a knife.

"Charles no!!!" warned Eddie.

"LOOK I AM SCK AND TIRED OF PLAYING THESE GAMES!!! YOU BETTER TELL ME WHERE CASSIE IS OR I WILL KILL YOU IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY." angered Charles.

"Charles please you not actually going to stabbed me. Are you?" scared Sabrina.

Then Charles took the knife aimed it at Sabrina but he stabbed the wall instead. Eddie , Jenn, and Wes was horrified and they never saw Charles like this. Sabrina was so scared she finally told them where Cassie was.

Alright Alright!!!! Cassie is being held captive in a cave." said Sabrina.

"Go ON!!!" snapped Charles.

"It's in the Hawaiian Forest!" said Sabrina.

Eddie finally came up to Charles.

"Charles I'll take it from here. Alright you whoever you are you are going to take us to the forest. Right now!!! And no tricks. Jenn get the Hawaiian police." said Eddie.

"Yeah because this is going to get ugly." said Eddie.

Meanwhle back at Lincoln Heights Robin, Lulu, Lizzie, And Andrew was all at the Salsa restuarunt looking at their menu. But Andrew was looking at Lizzie.

"What!!!" said Lizzie.

"You realy look sexy in that dress." said Andrew.

"Andrew stop! You making me blush" said Lizzie smiling alittle.

"Awww they are so cute together." said Lulu.

"Yeah I know." said Robin as he and Lulu was watching.

Then the cameraman came to the table and asked can he take a picture of the four. They all said yes and he took the picture.

“When you leave the picture will be up in the front waiting for you,” the photocgrapher told them.

“Thanks!” they all said.

“Hmm……what do you suggest I order, Andrew?” Lizzie asked.

“I love Paella,” he told her. “It’s so big, we could share it,” he offered.

“Sounds like fun,” Lizzie said, dreamy-eyed.

“What do you say, Boo? Wanna share Paella with me?” Lulu asked, liking the idea.

“Sounds cool to me,” Robin agreed. “What’s Paella anyway?” he asked Andrew.

‘”It’s a Spanish dish. It’s rice with pork, chicken, seafood, beans, olives all mixed up together in a pot. You’ll like it,” he assured them all.

When the waiter came they put in their orders.

“Feel free to get up and dance while you wait for your food,” the waiter encouraged them as he collected the menus from the table.

“You ready to do this?” Robin asked Lulu as he started to stand.

Lulu nodded, took his hand and stood.

“What about you guys? You coming?” Lulu asked Andrew and Lizzie.

The two of them exchanged nervous glances with one another.

“Oh, you guys are gonna play shy now, huh?” Robin teased.

“We’ll dance later,” Lizzie promised.

“Watch us,” Robin suggested. “But don’t try this at home!” he joked as he winked at them.

Lulu followed him to the dance floor. Andrew and Lizzie stayed at the table and watched them dance with some of the other couples.

As Andrew and Lizzie watched. They were really impressed with Robin and Lulu salsa, so was the others.

"Wow they are really good." said Andrew.

"Yeah I am really impressed." said Lizzie.

"I never realize they got some moves." said Andrew.

"Me nieither! I don't think I can move like that.: said Lizzie.

"Oh I bet you can." said Andrew.

"Please if dad ever caught me dancing like that. He'll have a fit." said Lizzie.

"Your father is not here." said Andrew.

"You got a point." said Lizzie.

"Come on dance with me. You'll neverknow unless you try. I won't laugh I promise." said Andrew.

"Promise?" asked Lizzie.

"Yeah as long as you are not thinking about your friend" said Andrew.

"Trust me I have moved on." said Lizzie.

So Andrew and Lizzie got on the dance floor and started to salsa.

(Ur welcome. Thanks for your link! It was great!)

At the end of their dance, Lulu and Robin stared at them in amazement.

“Shorty, I thought you said you needed Salsa lessons?!” Robin questioned her as they walked back to their table.

“I did. And you gave me a lesson,” she replied.

“And after ONE lesson, you were able to do all of THAT???” Lulu asked.

Lizzie shrugged. “I’m a quick study--what can I say?” she asked with a devilish smile.

“Not to mention she had a TERRIFIC partner,” Andrew added, patting himself on the back.

“I’ll say!!” Lulu agreed. “Where’d you learn to spin her on top of your head like that?!”

Andrew grinned. “I could Salsa before I could walk!”

“Dude, I feel like a BEGINNER next to you!” Robin admitted, slightly jealous.

“You? No way! You got some great moves,” Andrew said with admiration.

“I want you to teach me that move you do on your knees,” Robin told him.

Andrew laughed. “Oh that? It’s easy!”

Yeah…………….….right……………..…..if you say so…….” Robin said sarcastically.

Then the waiter and servers came with the food.

“YES!!!” Andrew exclaimed, rubbing his hands together anxiously as he eyed the food.

“Looks good,” Robin commented, impressed.

Andrew helped Lizzie’s plate first, and then put some of the Paella on a fork and held it to Lizzie’s mouth.

“Open up, Lizzieboo,” he told her playfully.

Bashfully, she obeyed and let him feed her the first forkful.

“So? How do you like it?” he asked after she swallowed.

She gave him a little smile. “It’s good, Andykins.”

He looked pleased as he served his own plate.

Lulu couldn’t believe how attentive Andrew was being to Lizzie, and nudged Robin.

“I hope you’re taking notes,” she whispered to him.

Robin frowned. “Oh I am. Believe me, I am!” he whispered back.

Meanwhile Charles, Eddie, Wes, and Sabrina rode into the stormy night, following Sabrina's directions to the Forest.

"YOU BETTER BE NOT TRYING TO TRICK US SABRINA OR I PROMISE YOU I WONT MISS WITH THAT KNIFE NEXT TIME!!" ragefully whispered Charles to Sabrina.

:After they parked on the outskirts of the forest, they fumbled through the forest with a low dimmed flashlight until they smelled smoke and heard voices.

"I don't feel comfortable doing this Bobby. I mean I know we're getting paid and all, but h's tourmenting this poor,innocent girl for no reason. I know something bads going come out of this," said one of the henchman.

"Just stay focused Robby. It'll all be over soon"

"GET IN HERE YOU TWO IDIOTS!! I NEED HELP WITH HER," yelled the unkown.

"Is that them?" asked Eddie.

"That's them alright!" said Charles.

"I really want to break there damn necks for torturing my daughter." said Eddie.

"So what is the plan?" asked Wes.

"You and I are going in there quietly while Charles keeps an eye on Sabrina." said Eddie.

"No way I want in." said Charles.

"Charles it's too dangerous." said Eddie.

"Mr. Sutton with all do respect she maybe your daughter but that is my fiancee'. I'm going in with you whether you like it or not." said Charles.

"Look I know you want this S.O.B. as badly as you do. I am a professional policeman. I know what I am doing. And personally I don't think you are stable enough." said Eddie.

"Look I can control myself okay." snapped Charles.

"Guys lets not argue about this. This is a girl's life we are talking about. We are all in this together. So if we want Cassie in one peace lets work together." said Wes.

"Alright fine! But try not to let your emotion get in the way." said Eddie.

Charles tied Sabrina to a tree and the three snuck quietly into the cave. Meanwhile the unknown was getting ready to have his worldwide sex party with Cassie. He was rubbing bodylotion all over his body, while the other henchmen tied Cassie with the dry shirt on to the bed.

"So boss are you going to take off that mask while you banged that girl?" asked Bobby.

"I'll keep it on. I want to keep my fans interested." laughed the unknown.

"Hey boss! I think we better stop. This is going alittle bit too far!!" warned Henchman 2.

"WHat are you queer. We came this far to score. Now is not the time to wuss out. Sabrina paid us all this money to set allof this up. I want to get the job down. Since I didn't get the job finished when I locked that hoochie mama in the bathroom." said the unknown.

Suddenly the unknown took off his mask and it was Tad's friend Serge.

"I need that fresh air. When Tad and Sage introduce me to Cassie I knew that was the girl I wanna score. But when she kicked me in the balls. She took away my pride. I really want to make her pay for what she did. I was so happy that I ran into Sabrina. Without her none of this wouuld be possible." said Serge.

"Hey boss it's almost showtime, and there is a problem with the webcast. I think we are having Internet and network connection problems." said the henchmen.

"FIX IT NOW! In the mean time, dim the lights and make yourself useful. It might be a troubleshooting setup problem. Get this fix and turn on the webcam. It;s showtime." said Serge putting on his mask.

“Umm, boss? Finding the problem is a matter of going through a series of steps to eliminate potential issues one by one until I find the source of the problem.” said the henchmen. “But, I think I got it! I switched the hard drives and monitor.

“SHUT UP! Just turn on the webcam! Said Serge

Meanwhile back at the Sutton household Nate was playing texas hold em on the computer until something blocked is computer.

"What the hell is going on." confused Nate.

Then he sort of saw the unknown (Serge) appear to the screen, because the monitor was suddenly blurry and there was a default with the audio setting.

"Hello folks welcome to my latenight sexbabe allnight long sexcapade. I'm your host the unknown. We have a very special tonight kiddies. Some of you know her from the Heights. She's Charles main squeeze Cassie Sutton." said Serge. However, with the sound default, Serge's voice was not necessarily clear.

They showed glimpses of Cassie in the dry shirt tied, gagged, and crying.

"MY SISTER!!!! CASSIE!!!" SHCOKED Nate.

Nate got to the phone and called Dana and told to go to the computer. Dana was shocked and horrified of what she could see since there was a default with the visual and audio setting. Marla in Hawaii saw the smame thing. Later at the studio while Tay was listening to his CD, Rueben turn on his computer and was shocked what he could see and hear.
"TAY GET IN HERE QUICKED!!!" Shouted Rueben.

"Hey whatsup!"?" asked Tay.

"Tay I really think you better look at this." said Ruben.

Tay saw Serge (the kidnapper) with Cassie.. Tay euyes opened wide in shocked.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?" YELLED Tay.

"You tell me?" asked Rueben.

"I don't who that dude and what the hell is he going to do with my sister?" upset Tay.

"I don't know. But if he going to do what I'm think he's going to do you better call your dad quick." said Rueben.

Tay call his parents on the cell but got no answered. Meanwhile the unknown continued to talk unclearly worldwide even if viewers could see and hear fuzzy images and sound since the webcam was not fix correctly.

"Now I know everyone is going to have a great time watching as I banged this girl like crazy. And I am going to have fun doing my deed. And she's going to love it.. Won't you?" asked Serge.

Cassie was scared of what he was about to do to her.

"Without further ado. Lets get this party started but first let me protect myself. Saftey first." said The unknown unclearly putting on his condom.

Then suddenly out of nowhere Charles, Wes, and Eddie popped out and attacked The kidnnapper (Serge) and his henchmen.

batman642

“TAY!! Isn’t that your father?!” Reuben asked, pointing at one of the men fighting on the blurred computer screen.

“Yeah! But?”

“But what, Tay?”

“Cassie’s supposed to be in Hawaii on vacation with Charles! I don’t understand what’s going on, Reuben! Last I heard, my parents were over at Mrs. Antoni’s house!” Tay said, totally confused.

“Well for Cassie’s sake, I hope your Dad is in Hawaii if THAT’S what’s going on over there!” Reuben replied, worried.

Tay tried to watch distorted screen closely. “Looks like my Dad got the best of that psycho freak!”

“Yeah, thank God! Is that Charles?” Reuben asked.

“Yes, and that’s his Dad!” Tay said.

“Apparently they all rescued your sister, Tay,” Reuben said watching. “It looks like they got to her just in the nick of time!”

“Poor Cassie…..” Tay remarked, as he struggled to watch Charles pick Cassie up, wrapped a sheet around her and carried her out of the camera’s view.

“I wonder what happened? Who’s responsible for this?” Reuben asked scratching his head.

Then a police officer from the Hawaii PD fixed the webcam and appeared on the clear screen and spoke into the webcam.

“The show is over folks! Everything’s under control! Sorry for the interruption, and please be advised that the young woman you saw on the screen was unharmed. I repeat---the young woman you saw on the screen was UNHARMED,” he announced and turned off the unfixed camera.

Tay let out a sigh of relief as he looked at Reuben. Reuben put his arm around Tay for moral support.

“Your sister’s safe now, Tay. That’s a good thing,” he reassured him.

“Yeah, she’s safe, but I hope she’ll be okay. Lizzie got kidnapped once and it took her a long time to get over it,” Tay remembered.

"I just hope Cassie will get over this as well." said Tay.

"Don't buddy she will." said Rueben.

Meanwhile back at the Sutton Household Nate was happythat he started crying.

"Thanks Dad! I knew you and Charles wouldn't let my sister down." said Nate crying.

Soon Natalie came in the room and saw Nate crying.

"Nate why are you crying?" Natalie asked.

"Because I'm so happy!" said Nate as he picked up Natalie and hugged her.

Meanwhile at Marla's house Dana was so happy and relieved that the nightmare was over.

"Good job Eddie! I knew you were a man I expected you to be. You two Charles." said Dana.

Dana soon called Marla to tell her the good news.

"Marla I have great news." said Dana.

"I know Dana! I know! I'm so happy they have found Cassie and Charles is alright." said Marla.

Meanhwile back at the cave Charles was hugging and consoling Cassie.

"I'm so happy I found you." said Charles.

"I'm glad you did. Charles I was so scared that you would never find me and you have given up." cried Cassie.

"Cassie I will never give up on you. I love you so much. I would die if anything happened to you. Remember what I said awhile ago nothing will ever keep us apart. I meant what I said." Charles explained.

"Charles don't ever leave me." said Cassie as she hugged Charles.

Soon Eddie got a hold of the unknown and unmasked him. Everyone shocked ithat it was Serge. Cassie looked dead at his face.

"You two know this guy?" asked Eddie.

"Yes it's one of Tad's friends. Sage set me up on a date with him. He tried to make a pass at me at the club." said Cassie.

"You know for what it's worth. You tasted so good." said Serge licking his lips.

Then Cassie got up and walked up to Serge then attacked him like crazy.

"YOU ANIMAL!!!!" screamed Cassie as she beat him.

Charles pulled Cassie off of Serge.

"Cassie stopped it's over. He;s going to jail. He won't hurt you anymore. And Im here for you always." said Charles holding Cassie.

batman642

“Charles, why don’t you get Cassie out of here and into the car,” Eddie suggested as he forcefully escorted Serge out of the cave in handcuffs.

“Sure thing! I’ll carry you to the car,” he told her as he lifted her.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head in his broad chest, closing her eyes as he carried her out of the cave and forged through the thick brush towards the car.

She finally felt safe for the first time since the terrible ordeal began.

When they got to the car, Jenn was already inside anxiously waiting, looking out of the window.

Charles carefully put Cassie in the back seat, then ran around to the other side of the car and sat next to her, cuddling her in his protective arms.

“I just want to get out of this place!” Jenn remarked, wondering where Eddie was.

A swarm of police officers and medics had converged on the area and Eddie and Wes were somewhere in the crowd.

“So do we, Mrs. Sutton,” Charles agreed as he lovingly stroked Cassie’s hair as she rested in his arms.

Jenn blew the horn, hoping to get Eddie’s attention wherever he was. It worked. Soon he came, trotting to the car.

“Everything okay?” he asked, concerned.

“Eddie, what’s taking so long? We want to bring Cassie back to the hotel! She needs to shower and lay down---she’s exhausted!” Jenn complained.

“I was just tying up some loose ends with the officers, Jenn,” he explained. “The Hawaiian police department isn’t as sophisticated as ours in Lincoln Heights.”

“Eddie! Could you stop being a cop for once and be a father!” Jenn snapped.

Eddie looked hurt.

“I’m sorry, Jenn. I wasn’t trying to ---”

“NO! I’m sorry, Eddie! I shouldn’t have said that----you’re a great father!” she apologized.

]

“We’re all just really frazzled,” he admitted. “But you’re right, Jenn. Cassie needs to get back to the hotel.”

Eddie got in the car and drove them back to the Resort where it all began.

When they got there, Charles carried Cassie from the car. When they got into the Lobby, the Hotel staff all stopped what they were doing and applauded---thrilled that their guests had returned safely.

As Chassie and the Suttons waited for the elevator, the Hotel Manager ran up to Charles and assured him that they could stay free of charge for as long as they wanted in the same suite.

“It’s the least I could do for you. I realize I didn’t handle the situation as professionally as I should have at first,” he admitted, embarrassed.

Charles was thrilled. “Thank you! We’ll definitely be taking you up on you offer! Won’t we Cassie?”

But Cassie didn’t answer. She was sound asleep in Charles’ arms.

“Thanks,” Charles continued. “We really appreciate you letting us stay longer. But what about Cassie’s parents? They have no where to stay.”

“Charles, we just want to make sure you guys get settled in your Suite. After that, we’re heading back to Lincoln Heights on the first thing smoking!” Eddie said.

“We are?” Jenn asked, surprised.

“You are?” Charles asked, surprised. “You mean you’re not gonna stay and keep an eye on Cassie?”

Eddie shook his head no.

“We’ve got a lot of kids to get back to. Lizzie, Tay, Natalie. I know Cassie’s in good hands with you, Charles,” he said with confidence.

“Thanks Mr. Sutton,” Charles replied.

They got into the elevator and rode up to the Honeymoon Suite.

‘This is absolutely beautiful!” Jenn remarked admiringly, looking around as they stepped off of the elevator into the Suite.

“It is. And we didn’t even get to enjoy it…..” Charles said sadly as he gently put sleeping Cassie on the bed.

“Well, Cassie’s in no condition to get back to school right away, so you might as well do what the manager said and stay a few days longer,” Jenn said.

“Make sure my daughter gets the royal treatment, Charles. She’s been through a lot! She needs breakfast in bed----the works. You got that?” Eddie asked as he gazed lovingly at his sleeping daughter.

“Yes sir. That’s what room service is for,” Charles agreed as he started to run a hot bubble bath for Cassie.

“Alright then,” Eddie agreed, satisfied that Cassie would be well taken care of.

“Jenn, you ready?” he asked anxiously. “I want to get back to the airport and on a plane as fast as possible.”

Jenn sighed. “I wish we could at least stay the night, Eddie, I‘m tired…..”

“Jenn, you can sleep on the plane,” he told her.

“My mom has a room not too far from here. I’m sure you could stay with her for the night,” Charles offered.

“And don’t forget, Eddie---we got a one-way ticket,” Jenn reminded him.

As Eddie hesitated and thought about what they were saying, Charles took his cell phone out and dialed Marla’s number.

"Hello Charles is everything alright?" asked Marla.

"Yes we got Cassie back and we are back in the hotel suite safe and sound." said Charles.

"Thank God! I saw wglimpses because the webcast was distorted on that horrible webiste. I hope that horrible creep and his goons get what he deserves. How is Cassie?" asked Marla.

"She's a bit shaken up, but I think she'll be okay. She's sleep right now. Speaking of which her parent needs a place to sleep tonight so will it be alright if hey." Charles explained then Marla interupted "No need to asked they can stay here for the night."

"Thanks mom! You're the greatest." said Charles.

"So are you Charles and tell Wes he's wonderful as well." said Marla.

Meanwhile back at the Salsa Restuarunt Robin, Lulu, Andrew and Lizzie was enjoying their dinner. Then Robin whisper in Lulu telling her that head out on the dance floor again.

"Robin we already dance." said lulu.

"I know I means lets leave the little ones alone for a few." said Robin.

"Oh okay!" confused Lulu as she went along.

Robin and Lulu went to the back.

"Alright Robin why did you drag me back here and leaving Lizzie and Andrew alone." said Lulu.

"Watch!" said Robin.

Soon the photographer came up to Lizzie and Andrew and took another picture only this time she took a picture of just Lizzie and Andrew.

"I get the feeling this is your idea." said Lulu.

""Exactly!" said Robin.

"Awww Robin that is so sweet, but I wish you we had a picture taken alone as well." said Lulu.

"We will Lulu! We will!" said Robin.

"Wow this has been a great night! Charles and Cassie has missed out big time." said Lulu.

"Yeah they would've really enjoyed it." said Robin.

"Hey they are in Hawaii!!! Having the time of their life. Or getting their freak on knowing them." said Lulu.

"Urgggh don't remind me." said Robin not liking the idea of Charles sleeping with Cassie.

Meanwhile back at the studio Tay decided after what he could see that it was time for yhim to head back home.

batman642

When he came through the door, Tay found Nate and Natalie playing a computer game together.

“Hi Tay!” Natalie, dressed in her PJs, greeted him. “Nate’s teaching me how to play Tetris!”

Tay chuckled. “That old school game?”

“Hey…..I’m old school---a’ite?” Nate replied.

Tay patted him on the back. “No hard feelings, bro?”

“We’re cool,” Nate assured him.

“Have you been on the computer very long?” Tay asked, wondering if Nate had seen what he saw.

“Long enough,” Nate replied, giving Tay a knowing look.

“Oh. So you saw it then?” Tay asked, careful not to say too much around Natalie.

Nate nodded. “Yeah,” he said sadly.

“Saw what?” Natalie asked nosily butting into their conversation.

“Pay attention to your game, Natalie,” Tay told her.

“How did you get to see it?” Nate asked Tay.

“My friend had his computer on and it just popped up, very shadowyand faint,” Tay explained.

“Yeah, same thing with me. I couldn’t believe my eyes….” Nate lamented.

“Did you know Dad was over there?” Tay asked, curious.

Nate hesitated, turning to Natalie.

“Baby girl, it’s real late. And now that we know Tay is okay, I want you to go upstairs and get in bed. Deal?” he asked sweetly.

Natalie pouted, but slowly obeyed as she got up from the computer and went up to her room.

“Okay. Now we can talk,” Nate continued when she was gone.

“To answer your question, Tay, I thought Jenn and Dad were at Marla’s house. But they called me later, after you left, and said they were on their way to the airport.”

“Nate, how did all of this happen?” Tay asked, searching for answers.

“I wish I knew, Tay. I’m just glad Cassie’s alright and they were able to save her.”

“You know, Nate, sometimes I hate being part of this family,” TAy admitted sadly.

“Tay! How can you say such a thing?” Nate asked, shocked.

“Easy! Nothing good ever happens! It’s one bad thing after another! Like we’re cursed or something!” Tay complained.

“Don’t think like that, Tay. Bad things may happen to you guys, but you always manage to make it through. On the other hand, look at your friend, Johnny. He didn’t make it. So I’d say the Suttons have a lot to be thankful for,” Nate lectured.\

Tay thought about it and then nodded in agreement. “I guess you’re right.”

Meanwhile after their fun at the salsa restuarunt Robin & Lulu took Lizzie & Andrew home.

"Wow that was fun." said Lulu.

"It sure was. I can't remember when the last time I ever ha this much fun." said Lizzie.

"You mean you never enjoy yourself?" asked Andrew.

"Let just say I'm usually busy being the good daughter." said Lizzie.

"Well I'm you had a great time. But as I say before don't get pregnant." said Robin.

"ROBIN!!!" shocked Lizzie and Lulu in unision.

"I was just saying." said Robin.

"Wait til mom and dad see these pictures. They will love it." said Lizzie.

"Yeah thanks again for letting the lady take our picture alone Robin." said Andrew.

"What made you think I left you two alone to have your picture taken?" asked Robin trying tnot to led on it was his idea.

"Come off it Robin. We saw you two standing behind the back. Then we saw the lady took y'all picture." said Lizzie.

"There's no getting past you huh?" asked Lulu.

"Don't you know it." said Lizzie.

"The crooks be in serious trouble if you ever bdecide on being a detective." said Robin.

"It just too bad that Charles and Cassie missed this. They would've had a great time." said Lulu.

"I know one thing this is the night to remember." said Lizzie.

Soon they arrived at the Sutton household they saw Tay and Nate watching televison.

"Hey guys we're back." said Lizzie.

"Lizzie I am so glad you all are here." said Tay.

The four notice the sadness in Tay and Nate's face.

"I know that look! What's going on here? And where's mom and dad?" asked Lizzie.

"Sit down! You need to listen to this. Same goes to you guys as well." said Nate.

"Okay?' confused Robin as he, Lulu and Andrew sat.

"What this all about?" asked Lulu.

"It's involve Cassie." said Tay.

"OMG Is she alright?" asked Robin.

"Relax Romeo! She's fine!" said Nate.

"So whatsup!" concerned Lizzie.

batman642

“Sit down and watch for yourself!” Tay said. “The late news is about to run a report!”

“THE NEWS???” the four of them gasped as they hurried and crowded around the TV.

The announcer began the report:

“What should have been the vacation of a lifetime, turned into the vacation from hell when a young woman, Cassandra Sutton, was abducted from the Honeymoon Suite she was sharing with her love of a lifetime, fi
