Enter the Hardys!

In a split-second decision, you take off after the unknown individual. Pumping your legs you meet Emma at the fence for half a second as you jump, spin on your stomach and drop down to the other side of the fence. You reach the road and see the suspicious person being held down by two teenage boys.

Jogging over to the trio you get a better impression of the boys and, well, the figure being held down looked female.

“Hold her Joe, she’s a feisty one.” The brown haired teenager says.

“What do you think I’m doing Frank?” The blond replies, testily.

You stop as you reach them and reach for your belt. “You two know how to hogtie someone with a belt?”

They glance over their shoulder at you, raising an eyebrow. “Yes sir.”

You nod then grab the small masked girl and hold her down. Your extra thirty pounds and Ranger training makes her struggles futile.

Thirty second later, you are hauling a hogtied girl back down the road towards the Kamp's residence. Frank and Joe following along, seemingly in awe of your ease in carrying of the still squirming girl.

“Geez sir, where’d you...”

“First let’s do some intro, shall we. I appreciate your help. I keep myself in shape, but this little minx had such a head start that I would not have caught her. I’m lucky she didn’t have a car waiting. Anyway I’m John Doe. I’m a reporter assigned to covering Ms. Nancy Drew. And my former Ranger training has definitely paid dividends this day.”

The brown haired boy’s eyebrows raised at the mention of Nancy. “Nancy huh? What luck. When the trail of the Eros Cult led here we were thinking of contacting her to help us out. I’m Frank, and this is my brother, Joe. Our father is Fenton Hardy…”

You stop, “THE Fenton Hardy?”

“Yep, THE Fenton Hardy.”

“Which makes you two…”

“Yeah, yeah, the Hardy Boys. And we have no relation to the wrestlers, thank you.”

“I kinda figured that.” You say, chuckling.

Three minutes later, you are walking back up the long driveway towards Nancy, who was now comforting Emma. As you get closer you hear what the sobbing girl is saying.

“And when I got back to the stables to see my sister, she was missing. I only saw that girl. So quick I couldn’t think, she just barreled through me and…”

Nancy pats her head, “There, there, Mr. Doe will get her.” She notices you suddenly, along with Frank and Joe. “Oh my! He got them and some others. Frank! Joe! How are you two?”

“We’re fine Nancy. But Callie and Iola have been kidnapped and we trailed the kidnappers to this area. We were coming down the road when we saw this girl jump over the fence and start running.”

A stricken look crosses Nancy’s face, “Oh, I’m so sorry. Any indications…”

“We’ve dubbed them the Eros Cult. Whether that’s what they call themselves or not is unknown right now. But we seem to have a member right here.” Joe states, patting the tied up girl on her firm ass.

You dump her onto the the grass by the side of the driveway.

Emma sneers at the masked girl, “Now let’s see who you are!”

She rips the mask off and gasps at the face, “Avril!? But…but why?!”

Before Avril can answer, Emma hauls off and slaps her. Avril flops over onto her side. Nancy grabs Emma from behind, grasping her breasts through her hoodie.
