Chapter 8 Caller Unknown: Yikes!

             Tikki receives a phone call from an unknown number.  "Hi, this is Tikki speaking may I ask who is calling?"  Tikki says.

          *Mysterious person on the other end of the phone, " Let's just say if you ever want to see Marinette again, send $4,000 to 4556 Seacreek Lane if you do not let's just say, Marinette will be swimming with the fishes got it?"  

            The caller hangs up before Tikki can get any more information out of them.

    Tikki gasps after she hears the creepy caller hang up on her.

    "Tikki who was it on the phone?"  Plagg asks.

   "I do not know," Tikki says.

    "Are you ok?"  Plagg asks. He wraps an arm around her in sympathy.

    "Let's talk somewhere, what I have to say will only upset, Adrien," Tikki replies.

    "Tikki, what are you not telling me?" Adrien asks.

    "Is it about Marinette? Where is she?" Adrien asks.

   "Marinette has been taken hostage," Tikki answers.

   "Wait, what, someone took her?" Adrien says with fear in his voice.

"Marinette has been kidnapped, "  Tikki says with a shaky voice.

"The kidnapper demands $4,000 sent to 4556  Seacreek Lane,"  Tikki says sadly.

    "They threatened to harm her if I do not send the money, " Tikki says in a panicky voice.

      

"Tikki are you sure it was not just a wrong number?"  Plagg asks.

   "Plagg, I am serious, Marinette's been kidnapped," Tikki says.

      "Ugh, someone must have found out she helped me.  This means none of us are safe now," Adrien panics.

     

    Elsewhere with Marinette, she is still tied up and gagged. She has no idea where she is and feels a chair under her. 

   The boss, as Kagami called him earlier enters the room where Marinette is located. 

"Hello, Marinette!" He says with a sinister tone to his voice.

  Marinette looks at him in shock, and thinks, Oh, no!  It is Gabriel Agreste who Kagami works for which means Adrien's father is a criminal.
