Ashley peeped through the window, the diamond necklace displayed there drew her attention. It looked very familiar, she placed her palm on the window that separated them and leaned in closer, then even closer.
Hmm...435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0z3k6lHil
Oh my God!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbpDBZeI3Y
It suddenly dawned on her where she had seen it! Around the neck of her best friend that she was traveling with!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaY2BX82L3
Shauna!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHuAtVELhT
She and Ashley had decided to vacation together in Columbia. The sights had been amazing and the people too. But, now Ashley wasn't quite so sure.
Frantically, she dialed her cell number. It rang at least 15 times with no answer.
Ashley was totally perplexed as to how her girlfriend's diamond necklace could be hanging on a pawn shop mannequin.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhNhczjR1T
She rushed inside the store hoping to find some answers.The dark atmosphere of the shop was cold, uninviting and somehow sinister. She approach the counter hesitantly,
"Hello?"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XXg7pc0ge
Ashley had a creeping, crawly feeling come over her that she couldn't shake. But gathering her courage she spoke again.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Be74j00Mc
Hello?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzF0TWFYpwS
"Is anyone here?"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpUKiAohLw
𝘓𝘌𝘈𝘝𝘌 𝘛𝘏𝘐𝘚 𝘗𝘓𝘈𝘊𝘌 𝘕𝘖𝘞!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygirTG5PvV
Cried an arresting voice, filled with wrath.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYMKIzLu7F
𝘓𝘌𝘈𝘝𝘌 𝘕𝘖𝘞!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaSoEvj8yF
Ashley was pale with fright, she nearly jumped out of her body.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbkRp1G2st
But with the thought that her friend might be in trouble, it gave her the strength to face whoever was behind the voice.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4YHyipxEb
The place was dimly lit but she could see a slight figure lurking in the darkness. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tFaL6Em5z
I, I just need to ask you a few questions, Ashley stammered.
"It's about the diamond necklace hanging on the mannequin in the window."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6E1vgBx7L
I need to know how you obtained it.
"Did she sell it to you?"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKThIhC50K
"Are you deaf?" The voice said, didn't you see the sign on the door?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3OzHIqxPX
"We're closed!"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe2mJ8LSZF
Ashley's kickboxing instincts begin to stir. She was a kickboxing instructor at a local gym and far tougher than she looked.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHiY41S93R
"Well, replied Ashley the door wasn't locked."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrUhg3Ahof
Furthermore,
I am not leaving until I get some answers! 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OBfNFBH8a
Now come out this instant or I'm calling the Policia! I will make sure they thoroughly investigate how you came by the diamonds. And I intend to wait right here until they arrive.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq5oSIWDhm
𝘞𝘈𝘐𝘛 𝘙𝘐𝘎𝘏𝘛 𝘛𝘏𝘌𝘙𝘌!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDlEzEnCoi
Wow! 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFRlFfbgP1
Ashley thought, this dude must be on voice steroids! Abruptly, she heard a sound and seen a small figure standing at the counter, his head barely clearing it.
Ashley walked towards the figure who stepped back to see her more clearly. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslc9nKSoWZ
Why! 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPAlqPXGLo
"You're just a little old man, exclaimed, Ashley! She seen him discreetly putting a microphone away inside a drawer."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0U0wtIAWU
Oh!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCXZs5AawH
So that's what made me think that perhaps you were King Kong! "Ok, what is your name and how did you get my girlfriend's diamond necklace?"
"My name is of no consequence to you and we purchase the diamonds."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg86OKDOPoG
And that is all you need to know the little man replied. Now, if I were you I would turn around and leave!
"Leave! Ashley said, well, that's not going to happen."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDPr5ojrIk
The oriental suddenly pulled out a whip threatening her with it. But, before he could react Ashley kicked it out his hands. And struck him with it.
"You bitch!"
The man cried, "Look what you've done, wiping the blood dripping from his face."
WHAM!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn1bZBij9q
Ashley felled to the floor, her consciousness fading. A tall oriental, robust man was leaning over her clasping a slap jack.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmVqHSMjoY
"What!"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aCJGRmdty
What did you do that for?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z3CyiSn3f
"That wasn't necessary cried the small man stepping from behind the counter. Is she dead Akeno?" Now we're really gonna have trouble. It's one thing engaging in human trafficking but murder!
"Don't worry about it said, Akeno, she isn't dead and what possess you to put those damm diamonds in the window anyway."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBItpStAGYn
Listen shorty, if you screw up my operations you might not live to tell the tale. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADIIZBfy3Q
"My name isn't shorty, it's Miguel!"435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPWkNt0QFD
What shall we do now? 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu44lord4eB
When she wakes up, you know she is going to run straight to the Policia.
"Yes, said, Akeno, that is why we are going to sell her on the black market." Normally I would keep her but I need some fast cash. Now remove the diamonds from that mannequin and lock the door.
Miguel locked the door and returned with the diamonds. Akeno said, "Grab her legs and lets take her to the rear entrance."435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIWr578lbh
They tied Ashley up and place her inside a limousine with dark tinted windows. Akeno followed in his own vehicle, the limousine pulled up to a ocean pier where a ship was waiting and the doors opened.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Xw2Fb9Ryl
Out stepped two husky looking male Columbians wearing black bandanas that covered their faces. They removed Ashley from the limo just as Akeno arrived.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyAi7bHNLh
Akeno barked an order, "Get her aboard that ship now!"
The trio drew curious glances from people as they almost dragged Ashley aboard the ship. But, they probably assume she had too much to drink. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPRulTrLgn
Akeno bellowed, take her below deck and tell Santiago to come up here and pay me my money for her!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHpaSGBVwY
𝘗𝘰𝘸!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgC6ce8B7v
A bullet suddenly went whizzing by Akeno's ear.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOJ7Nz0UaE
𝐏𝐨𝐰! 𝐏𝐨𝐰, 𝐩𝐨𝐰, 𝐩𝐨𝐰, 𝐩𝐨𝐰435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sSxuUeJXb
𝐩𝐨𝐰!
His presence was rudely greeted with a hail of bullets, one striking him in his right leg. Akeno screamed in agony, drew his Sig Sauer 45 magnum revolver and returned fire. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfrKqEiZCF
"I've been set up cried, Akeno, you dirty bastards!" He staggered back towards the gangplank managing to escape any further injury despite the barrage of fire.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf2zUGLVcj
He threw open the door to his car, and crawled in bleeding profusely. Meanwhile, the Columbians had scurried below deck still carrying Ashley.
The loud gunfire had woken her and she was now fighting with her captors.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUNh7AK6In
