Roleplay with characters from your story
((um, cool. So what's happening, exactly.))
Ben heard a crash next door and rolled his eyes.
Ben heard a crash next door and rolled his eyes.
First she was attacked by some drunk and now her house is being burglarized! This is one eventful day, Shannon thought. She looked around and grabbed a cast iron candlestick and inched down the hallway.
((candlestick was the first thing I thought of...))

Ben ignored the noise next door and kept reading.
((She should like scream bloody murder or something...))

((k))
Shannon made it to her bedroom, but when she looked inside, no one was there. She dismissed the crash sound as something on the street and turned around to go back to watching her show. She came face to face with a man she didn't know. Sh screamed, but he put his hand over her mouth, muffling it. She kicked at him and tried to get away, but he held her tight. It was then that she realized this was no burglary, it was a kidnapping.

Ben heard her scream and got up, slowly, thinking, 'Now what?'. He walked to her door.
The man bent down and whispered in here ear. "Someones coming," he said.
"How do you know that?" Shannon interrupted, only it sounded much more like "hmmf dyah nofh tahd?"
"I just do," He said understanding. "And you're going to tell them everything's fine."
"How? You don't even have a gun," She asked when he took his hand off of her mouth. He quickly placed it back over, seeing as she was so loud.
"I don't need one," He said darkly and Shannon knew he was right. She waited for whoever it was to knock so she could get this over with.

"Hello, who's there," Shannon called, and tried to hide the fear in her voice when she felt the mans hand dig into her back.
"What's wrong?" he asked immediately.
"Nothing, I just dropped some dishes, I'm quite alright," Shannon said, her voice steadier now, but the fear still there.
"Yeah, like I'm gonna believe that." he said and started opening the door.
The man immediately let go of Shannon and ran to the window, jumping out. He carefully climbed down and landed safely on the ground. He then ran off, and Shannon slid to the ground putting her head in her hands. They had found her again.
Ben found Shannon sitting with her head in her hands. "You okay?" he asked.
"Yes, I mean no. Oh, I don't know!" Shannon said throwing her hands up. She still didn't know what to think of it.
Ben nodded and, sighing tiredly, sat down next to her.
Shannon glanced at him then looked at the window. The image of the man jumping out still fresh in her mind, and the fear. If they wanted her again, why didn't they just drug her like last time.
"So, what just happened?" he asked, glancing at her.
"Well, a man came in through my window, and he tried to take me, but then you came, and as soon as you opened the door, he left, jumping out that window." Shannon said quietly trying to forget it.
Ben nodded and let the subject drop.
"Would you mind helping me make sure all the windows are locked," Shannon asked.
The man stood aside as two other men argued.
"Jordan, I told you I should have gone." The blonde man said frustrated.
"You know what would have happened if you or I had gone," Jordon said angrily, trying to prove his point. "She would have recognized us, and you know what that would have made her do."
"Yes, but we could have done it right." Shawn said with equal passion. "I'm going back."
"Suite yourself, she already knows it was us, now what do you think she'll do." Jordon said shrugging his shoulders indifferently.
Shawn glared at his brother, he would do it right.
"She doesn't want you, remember," Jordon said, now trying to provoke Shawn.
Shawn didn't respond, just walked out the door. He now had two reasons for wanting to see Shannon.

"Sure." he stood up and held out his hand to her.
((Ahhhh!!))
((Ahhhh!!))
((yeah...isn't it just so entertaining when you mix stories you haven't read together.))
Shannon took his hand ans smiled, "Thanks." She walked to the closest window, the one the man jumped out of. She slammed it shut and locked it. She was sure she was never going to open her windows again.

((Mmhhmm...))
Ben closed a few other windows.
Ben closed a few other windows.
"There, that's the last one," Shannon said, locking the kitchen window. "Thank you. And I apologize for the way I acted earlier," Shannon said embarrassed. "I think we got of on the wrong foot."
Ben smiled. "Yeah, I think we did. Sorry about that."
"I'm sure I provoked you," Shannon said. "I guess we can only go uphill from here," Shannon said brightly, hoping that it applied to her troubles as well.
Ben chuckled softly, "I suppose so."
"You best be getting home," Shannon said, chuckling a little that it was right next door. "It's getting late." She showed him to the door.
"Yeah, probably. See you around." he said walking out.
"See you," Shannon said shutting her door and locking it tight. Maybe Ben wasn't so bad after all, she thought.
Ben was a bit confused about what had just happened. He decided to think about it later, and went back to his book, pulling the speakers put of his iPod.
Shannon heard a knock at the door. "Why would Ben be back?" She asked herself aloud and answered it. She was surprised to see someone else, someone she thought she'd never see again.
"What do you want," She asked not letting him in.
"I want to talk," Shawn said, taking a step toward her.
"You don't have that right anymore," Shannon said glaring at him.
"I know," He started.
"I thought I'd made it clear I never wanted to see you again," She interrupted.
"Wanted?" Shawn asked hopefully.
"Or want to see you again," Shannon said and closed the door.
"Shannon," He called.
"Go away!"
Shawn nodded his head, although Shannon couldn't see him. Now he would have to do what his brother wanted him to do.

Shawn nodded his head, although Shannon couldn't see him. Now he would have to do what his brother wanted him to do.
Ben could hear Shannon arguing with someone and debated whether or not to check on her.
Shawn carefully and quietly picked the lock and walked in.
"What the..." Shannon started but was cut off when Shawn put something over her mouth.
"Just like last time," she whispered before blacking out.
Shawn put her over his shoulder and walked out of the apartment closing the door behind him.

Ben heard someone walking heavily out of the apartment next door. He stuck his head out the door and saw a man carrying Shannon over his shoulder. "Hey!" he called out.
Shawn looked back and at the man who'd shouted at him. He shrugged his shoulders as best he could.
"She's real tried." He said then continued walking out of the building.
"She's real tried." He said then continued walking out of the building.
Ben followed him to see where he was taking her.
Shawn put her in the backseat of his Jaguar and seeing the guy following him, quickly drove down the street.
Ben swore and wondered what he should do next.
((Um. Now what?))
((Um. Now what?))
((he could take someones car if he doesn't have one...))
Ben ran to his car and drove off after the Jaguar.
Shawn didn't think that guy would follow him so he didn't worry after he turned the first corner. Quite a long drive later, Shawn pulled up in front of his fathers mansion.
"Jordan," He said into a phone, "I'm here."
"Jordan," He said into a phone, "I'm here."
Ben saw him pull up to a mansion and decided to leave his car a few yards away.
Jordan walked out and saw his brother carrying Shannon to the door, firefighter style.
"And I didn't think you could do it," Jordan said sneering.
He let Shawn go ahead of him, looking around before he shut the door.
"Did anyone follow you," Jordan asked.
"No," Shawn said putting Shannon down in her old room.
"And I didn't think you could do it," Jordan said sneering.

"No," Shawn said putting Shannon down in her old room.
Ben saw them drag Shannon inside and snuck in, wondering what the heck he was doing...
((This is an unanswered post from june 12th))"Why would she give it back?" Damien said. "And it's a wonder they never noticed my weapons."
Salem nodded. "I was hoping for that."
((thanks and srry XP))"Because it's Mine." Josiah scoffed "I can't believe they didn't notice yours. Well, maybe they didn't want to have to grope you to find it." Josiah said thoughtfully.
Emmy sighed
"Me too."
((idk which and when yours was...))

Shannon heard a noise at her window, but ignored it. It wasn't until she heard a crash coming from her bedroom that she freaked out. She'd had enough excitement for one day.
