Kickstarter Ransom

"Hrrpmrpm!" A dark haired pro female soccer player grunted out as she wore a bright green and black combination soccer uniform and she was carried into safe house by two goons who had the audacity to kidnap her during a live game. Despite being on the field along with all the other teams, security and the thousands of fans they somehow made off with her which the action was witness by millions.

"And there you go." A slim short guy said as his tall partner bound the female known as Amber to a chair with rope as more bound her wrists, knees and ankles. A thick knotted white cloth kept her gagged as she was secured into the simple wooden chair. "Good job Josh, now for part two of our plan."

"I still don't know about this Nick, will this really work?" He asked over Amber's grunted struggles as Nick pulled himself up to a computer which had a kickstarter new funding page on it.

"Of course Josh, you got to stay up to date with kidnappings and ransoms and what better way to ransom a famous soccer player than to start a kickstarter fund for the world to pay her ransom!" He said as he held up his camera and took a picture of Amber making her blush somewhat as he uploaded it to the kickstarter page and began to set the fund and type out his demands.

"Mrpmrrmmr!" Amber protested under her gag finding the idea completely ridiculous and absurd.

"And, posted." He said leaning back in his chair demanding $100,000 dollars for her safe release and the kickstarter had a few days to reach it's goal. "Now we just wait and safely get our money." Nick said confident.  

"I hope this works." Josh said as Amber still protested the crazy idea despite it being underway.

Some time had passed and Amber was growing worried, she was given a view of the webpage and there was a large picture of her all tied up and restrain. Under the picture was a warning that if the kickstarter wasn't funded she would be given some new cement shoes and given a special dip in the nearby lake.

When she had viewed it the funding was twenty-five percent at the funding goal but that was some time ago and now she was unable to view it and her kidnappers had finally walked back into the room grinning.

"Alright, time is up. Lets see how much we got." He said as the kickstarter page promised a speedy release if the amount went over required amount.

As he sat down though he looked at the page and shook his head tsking. He took a deep breath and sighed looking at Amber.

"Bad news soccer gal, your kickstarer ransom didn't hit it's funding goal. Guess it's time for those new pair of shoes." He said nodding to Josh who went to fetch a bag of cement.

"Nrnrprmrpm!" Amber cried out squirming in her chair as Josh came back with a large bucket and the bag.

"So I guess this was a failure?"

"Not at all Josh my man, once we make an example of her the next funding we do will meet it's goal." Nick assured him as Amber began to cry a little before there was a sudden banging noise at the door and soon the door was broken down and police rushed the room.

"What the!" Both men said as they were pinned to the floor and soon arrested.

"How the hell did you find this place?" Nick asked confused.

"Your kickstarter profile of course, you had had filled out the address of this place and everything." The officer said making Nick mad.

"JOSH! You lunkhead! You weren’t supposed to fill that out!"

"But they said it was required!"

"Then you should have used a fake address!" Nick shouted more as they were taken away.

"You alright?" The officer asked freeing Amber.

"I am now, thanks." She said rubbing her wrists as curiosity filled her and she checked out the webpage and gasp.

The quarter amount of the funding she saw before was all that it got, slightly more than what she first saw but wasn't very much angering her.

"Some fans I have." She pouted as she had the page deleted and then went with the police to file a report on this mess.

The end.
