[14] I Think I Should Use Frying Pans More

A/N Edited.

I am currently in the living room watching Star Wars and consuming a tub of Ben and Jerry's.

"Dammit! You fudging bastard! Yeah, kill that crazy man! He killed his own father! Go, Rey!" I shout at the television as I angrily scoop my ice cream.

It was a Saturday night and Wade went off to a family dinner somewhere outside the city. His mom said I didn't need to be there since they were with him and it wouldn't take that long. So, here I am, watching a Star Wars movie marathon alone in the living room.

My parents aren't home until 2 AM since they had something to take care of at the main office which makes the house mine for the time being.

The week went by pretty much boring, the same old routine, endless bickering with Wade, going to the mall with Ella, and a bunch of homework. It's kind of quiet considering Wade is not here. Not that I want him here, it's just so...unusual.

I freely lie down on the length of the sofa with a Spiderman blanket while cuddling up with some teddy bear to at least keep me company. It's not like the Nun will pop out somewhere in the paintings plastered on the wall......Or not.

Suddenly feeling fear creeping at the back of my mind, I turned the TV's volume up. James had already been dropped off at the agency with my parents earlier this morning. The kiddo even said he'd pay me a visit soon after sorting out the whole messy kidnap kebab.

My cellphone blasted its Marimba sound which made me slightly jump out of surprise.

Chill, it's just a phone. Not when I feel like some horrible-looking monster will pop out somewhere in my house. They won't, right?

Who would call me in the middle of the night? I grabbed my phone which was laying on the living room table and saw the caller ID. I simply rolled my eyes and answered, "What?"

"Well, hello to you too, princess," Wade greeted and I could already sense the smile in his voice.

"What do you need? You wouldn't be calling me in the middle of the freakin' night for nothing." I roll my eyes while saying this. Always ready to annoy me, ugh.

"Well, I figured you would be having a movie marathon so you would be awake and I thought I'd check in," he said all in one breath as he rehearsed it a hundred times.

I quickly looked around me. "How did you know I'm having a movie marathon? And checking what?" I can't help but ask. Check on what? Like if I had gone bonkers because I was alone? "If you're okay." His tone was serious, he must be really worried.

With that, my stomach made twists and turns making me feel something I couldn't pinpoint over. My heart pumped more blood than usual and felt my cheeks heat up.

"Why wouldn't I be okay?" I chuckled. It's not like there's someone who's going to barge in my house and start taking all my stuff.

"I just had a bad feeling, that's all," he replied sounding relieved as he breathed out like he was holding on to it for a long time.

"So what's up?" I said as I see the credits of the second movie started. I went to the kitchen to find more food to eat. Just then, I thought I heard something shuffle from the backdoor.

My ears and eyes immediately perked up at the sudden sound and I slowly looked for something as a defense. I grabbed the nearest thing, which was a freaking frying pan about 16 inches in diameter from the dishwasher and held it tight on my left hand.

"Uh, hello? Are you still there?"

"Yeah? I'm just going in the kitchen to get more food," I replied my voice began to sound quiet. My pace is slow as I reach the area where I swore I heard a sound. Who would be at this late hour? It's already past 11:30 pm. I looked behind the curtains by the window.

"Okay....so, um..." I heard from the other line. I rolled my eyes. "Just get to the point already," I murmured as I unlocked the door, and just as I was about to open it.....

A man dressed in black with a mask, as fast as lightning, bolted right at me with a white handkerchief in his hand. He wrapped my mouth with it and I quickly moved my hand holding the phone and punched his nose. This action made him fuming mad and slapped my right cheek and it stung badly that my eyes began to water.

That's going to leave a bad mark. Ugh. I accidentally loosen my hold on my phone and it fell from my grasp. I groaned, dismissing the pain I felt, I use my other hand, which was grasping the frying pan, and with all the power I could muster, I hit his head really hard.

"Princess?" Great, it's now on speaker mode. I ignore his worried calls for me and watched the man I hit. Yeah, take that! Die, brain cells, die! I wouldn't be surprised if this man wakes up and becomes a much more idiot.

Thankfully, the man in black made his way to Lalaland falling on the wooden floor with a loud thud. To make sure he wasn't going to get straight back up on his toes, I kicked his side.

Yep, definitely in Lalaland.

I guess frying pans are pretty much helpful. Thank you, Rapunzel for giving me such an idea. I think I should use them more. They are convenient. I chuckle at the thought. I picked up my phone from the floor.

"Jessi! What the hell happened?!" His voice made me flinch because of how loud it is. I place the phone on the countertop since it's in loud speaker and the frying pan beside it.

"Oh, I just accidentally lost my grip of the frying pan that I was going to put in the dishwasher and it fell," I chuckle nervously as I examine closely the man who is lying unconscious on the floor. I took off his mask and saw a scar on his left cheek and a small dragon tattoo on his right bicep.

"You're lying." I heard him say and I ignore it. This is not the kind of challenge I was expecting it to be. I was expecting their back-up to jump at me from behind or something........

Then, as if the heavens had heard it, a pair of arms encircled its way on my body from behind, making me incapable of attacking him. So I pushed him to the nearest wall, forced myself to turn around, ran my feet up the wall so that his arms on my body loosens, flipped myself over to land on the floor, grabbed his shoulder with my right arm and his right arm with my left, swept my right foot on his right leg so he looses balance and threw him over my body. Then I stepped my right foot over his body and twisted his arm. I heard him groan in pain.

"You bitch!"

Another man showed up and lunged at me. I avoided all his attacks swiftly. He tried to punch me but I grabbed it with my left hand, clutched his forearm with my right and threw him over my shoulder. Not letting go, I twisted his shoulder and hard punched his face.

Another man came flying towards my left and successfully tackled me to the cold hard ground. Ugh, my back!

If only I was still holding my phone, I can still tell Wade a secret message that I may be in some kind of trouble. If only I was holding the frying pan, I can punch all of their heads until they're unconscious. If only I had Scarlet Witch's power to alter this quickly. Okay, maybe that last one wasn't realistic, but I had to include Marvel here. It fitted the situation, sue me.

Anyway, back to this heavy-ass man. I struggle to get out but he was too goddamn huge for me to make my next move. Think, Jessica, think!

And before I apply my substitute plan to get him off me, my nose and mouth was met by a funny-smelling handkerchief. And I definitely knew what would happen next.

I'm not even sure if the call with Wade ended. Damn, I think I'll miss arguing with him once I get abducted.

You just admitted you miss him. HA!

Ugh, now's not the time!

I tried to struggle one last time before my head started spinning and I felt my eyelids getting heavier. I tried to fight it. Even though I tried hard to control my body to win over something like this, I know I would eventually lose.

And I know that once I close my eyes, trouble is there waiting on the other side. I cannot be consumed with this blackness. I was definitely being abducted.

Well, this sucks. I'm going to drop a few ranks below.

Then I slowly drifted away from consciousness. Just frickin' frackin' freckin' luck.
