The two teenage girls look at one another and then at the three boys who were walking around without any protection. The older of the two swallowed loudly and looked at the younger girl slightly frightened. She helped come up with their plan but it was clear on her face that she wanted to back out. The younger girl smiled up at her, her almost black hair falling in front of her eyes, as she crouched behind a bush. They had their parts and if the older girl didn’t help there would be some hell to pay. The younger girl nods and then two girls run and grab the boys, pulling them with an odd amount of ease into a van. They look at the boys and notice right away the zoned out look in their eyes.

"This is such a bad idea."

"You helped come up with the plan."

"And I also told you time and time again we would get arrested for doing it! And that I was kidding!"

"Spencer calm down like they are really going to get mad at us, they are in zombie land I doubt they noticed that we took them."

"This is such a bad idea Stephani."

"Okay whatever Spencer."

Stephani sat behind the wheel of her brother’s minivan and looked at the three boys all sitting in the backseat, all life gone from their faces. They aren’t the same smiling happy boys that the girls are used to seeing and that worries them. Stephani sighs before peeling out of the parking lot, she needs to get to her apartment as fast as she can. A quick look back at the boys, while at a stop light causes her to bite her lip and go off the normal path, instead of heading directly to the apartment opting to head for some food.

She orders what she thinks that they will like, since when she tries to ask what they want they don’t answer. And then pulls up to her favorite spot to watch the sunset, the big old hill on the edge of town. She got out of the van, Spencer following slowly, and grabbed the boys, forcing them to sit and watch the sunset with them. The beauty of the situation seems to draw the boys out of their trance and the oldest is the first to speak.

"It’s so pretty."

"Your right it is."

At the sound of Stephani’s voice all three boys turn in her direction looking completely and totally shocked. She just laughed and handed Nick a burger before turning to look at the sunset once again, her two favorite times of day were sunset and sunrise and she was always on this hill watching them.

"Um excuse me how did we get here?"

Leave it to Nick to remember his manners when he had been kidnapped. Spencer looked at Stephani from her spot where the boys couldn’t see her and Stephani rolls her eyes before turning to look at the three boys.

"We kidnapped you. Not that it was hard. You were walking around without security and you were being Zombies."

"You kidnapped us? Wait we?"

"Yea Spencer helped but she’s hiding cause she doesn’t want you guys to know what she looks like. She is convinced that you will tell the fan girls and send then after us."

"Spencer if we promise not to send the fan girls after you will you come over here?"

Kevin’s voice is the one thing that will cause Spencer to come out of the shadows where she was sitting and as soon as she did Kevin forgot he was eating and started to choke.

"Oh for goodness sake."

Stephani starts to pound on Kevin’s back until he can breath regularly again. She sends Spencer, who is blushing a furious shade of red, a look and then turns back to the oldest boy. He is slightly red also and his brothers are laughing at him.

"Kevin the only way I am giving you food back is if you promise not to choke cause Spencer is so hideous... OW SPENCER."

Stephani stood up as soon as Spencer’s foot hit her in the back and she had the older girl’s arm twisted in her grip a glare in her eyes. The boys all look shocked at Stephani but then Spencer reaches her other arm around and grabs hold of Stephani’s arm twisting it to a point of unknown pain.

"Okay maybe we aren’t as safe as we thought."

"Your safer than you know."

"What do you mean?"

"She means that you want to be here with us and not with someone else. What happened guys?"

"What are you talking about?"

"What happened? You know what I’m talking about if you didn’t you wouldn’t be here you would have tried to get away and most likely gotten away, you would have had Big Rob with you, you would have never let yourselves become these drones."

"We are not drones."

Stephani’s then white brown eyes turn to Joe who just said those words and all three boys gasp but she ignores them looking straight into the chocolate color she has grown to love. She knows how shocking her eyes are but she wanted her words to be even more shocking.

"Drones and clones, or did you not realize that you’ve become one? Joe doesn’t have his crazy style anymore, Nick’s isn’t classic and Kevin doesn’t have his normally classy British look. You are all dressing alike, clones. You mindlessly do what they tell you to do at that stupid company. And you show no emotion anymore. Or did none of you realize that your fans are always so excited to see you but you keep that somber look on your face. Half your fans have given up all hope of you being happy again. And the other half don’t really care if you are happy they only care that you keep your pretty faces in the magazines. Why did we do this Spencer?"

"Cause you thought it was a good idea. Cause we wanted to snap them out of it."

"But they aren’t who they were to begin with."

"What do you mean we haven’t changed."

"Okay. If you want to believe that."

"I do cause it’s true."

"Okay if you want to believe that."

"Help us then."

"I can’t help you be you if you don’t know who you are."

Soon the girls and guys are getting to know each other better and as the time p*CENSORED* Stephani’s eyes go from white brown to almost black brown. Spencer’s blue eyes smile and almost grown a green tint to them. The boys slowly loosen up and become more free with the girls and then when the stars start to shine Stephani frowns.

"I suppose we have to let you guys go."

"What if we don’t want to do."

Spencer who had turned the other way turns back her eyes wide in shock and her mouth dropped slightly. She hadn’t expected that, that’s for sure, she had expected they to hurry back to their lives of fame and fortune. Stephani smiles widely and then looks at the boys her eyes going soft, a medium shade of brown.

"Did you just say you didn’t want to go?"

"Well we do like it here with you guys, you remind us of who we want to be."

"We kidnapped you."

"We stole you."

"We took you."

"But we want to stay."

The two girls look at one another and Stephani lets out a laugh, smiling widely at Spencer.

"You want to stay with us?"

"Forever."

Spencer lets out a squeal and Stephani smiles shyly at the boys. So that night instead of bringing the boys back to the hotel where they are staying they bring them to their houses. And than it happened, someone called the cops and Stephani was almost arrested, Spencer claimed she was ill at the time. But then the boys saved her and told the world that they were leaving their music behind them.

At first Stephani and Spencer had both complained, saying that their music was a wonderful thing and that millions of fan girls would die if they did. It took months for the boys to convince the two girls that they were doing the right thing. And even then Stephani frowned every time she saw one of their videos on the TV or when she heard them on the radio.

Almost a full year after they left their former lives behind the boys got a call, saying a close friend was in desperate need of help. They rushed to her side, knowing that she was being pressured into what was happening to her despite her young age. She had the same pressures that they had but she was giving in even further than they were.

When the boys returned it was clear that they hadn’t given back in and they weren’t planning on giving in. Their friend was better they had rescued her from her what she had become and they came back to show that the world wasn’t going to ruin them again. The girls still had their little issues, Stephani complained from the ground to the sky about them giving up their music, and Spencer couldn’t believe how much they care and that they loved them.

And then it happened, Nick left and when he came back months later he wasn’t the same. The girls knew he wasn’t their Nick anymore, he was hyped out Nick, he was what they had worked so hard to get rid of. And he went on tour, for months and they didn’t see him again until he was beyond repair. He married a brunette girl who he dated the first time around, and they had gorgeous brunette children who looked just like he had as a child.

Kevin stayed with Spencer, he knew he loved her from the second he choked on his burger the first time he saw her. They got married, happily and had kids that were a perfect mix of mother and father, gorgeous dirty blond hair with either blue-green or hazel eyes. When the kids wanted to make a band they were hesitant but agreed after a few dozen puppy dog pouts.

Joe and Stephani went out broke up went out again broke up again got married got separated, got back together, had kids, lost a kid, prayed for help, got help and then had more kids. Their daughter looked like their mother except for their curly brunette hair and their sons, the first who died at such a young age and the younger one were splitting images of their father.

Years later watching the little ones play together the girls look at their husbands chasing their children and a smile broke out on their faces.

"To think it all started when we kidnapped the boys all those years ago."

"Let’s not bring that up."
