Natalie dashed down the alleyway, her boots making loud clicking sounds as they impacted the concrete beneath her as she made a quick turn down another. Checking behind her, she didn’t see any sign of her pursuit and paused for a moment to catch her breath and map out where she was now in this alley system. She knew that the men were closing in on her, boxing her in to make her feel trapped and her only hope was to lose them in these alleys and find a way out to call for some support. Or really just make it out safely.

Her thoughts went back to her two friends now in the men’s clutches. Victoria and Nishika had dragged her out to the club for a girls night out, and somehow enemy agents had caught wind of it and were waiting when they emerged later, tipsy from alcohol and tired from dancing on their tall heels all night. Moving away from the crowded club to call for an Uber, the three girls had been ambushed. Victoria and Nishika had both been grabbed from behind by big beefy men, hands clamping down over their mouths to stifle their cries and then their arms were grabbed and pinned against their sides. A third man had gone for Natalie, but being a trained agent she had dodged the initial attack and fought back.

While she wasn’t able to save Victoria or Nishika as they were dragged away, she bought enough time for herself to run off down one of the side alleys and get away. But there were more than she thought and the net was beginning to close. Looking down at herself, she was definitely not dressed for a fight or for any spying in black leather knee high boots with a block heel, stockings, leather shorts, and a pink cropped halter top. The pink also stood out in the dark, not great for hiding. Her phone had been dropped in the initial scuffle and her only method to call for backup was lost with it, so it was all on her to slip between her enemies and get to safety. She’d have to come back later to save Victoria and Nishika and a bolt of guilt shot through her. They were simply college friends who were completely innocent of the world of lies and spying that Natalie dealt with on a daily basis, now dragged into it all because of her. What a friend she was.

The beautiful Chinese girl now evaluated her options and took off down one alley, hearing a voice from the other end, she leapt out of the alley with a flying knee connecting solidly with one of her initial attackers. He grunted as he took the knee full in the chest, Natalie’s momentum taking him down but she had no time to do anything further as others noticed her and shouted, forcing her to duck down another side alley.

The game continued for a while but Natalie was aware that they were boxing her in further. The men wove a net that would shrink as she moved until eventually she would run out of space unless she found a gap in the net. And run out of space she did as she exited the mouth of an alley directly into four men with guns levelled in her direction. Footsteps behind her told her that the alley she had just emerged from was now closed off to her, not that it would have done her much good since a straight narrow channel made her the easiest target they probably ever had. Completely boxed in and nowhere to run, Natalie glumly raised her hands in surrender. Relief seemed to pass through all the men but their gun barrels didn’t waver from her as one of the men came up to pat her down in a search. She grunted as he groped her breasts, feeling up her body as he searched her and found nothing. Nodding to one of his companions, they came forward with a roll of duct tape and forced her hands behind her before her wrists were crossed and wrapped in duct tape. “Move.” One said, making sure to stand back with the gun so Natalie wasn’t presented with any opportunities.

Surrounded, Natalie complied as she was escorted towards a waiting transit van. The back was opened up as she approached and to her horror, she saw both Victoria and Nishika heavily taped up. Victoria cried out into her gag as she spotted Natalie, but the blonde asian could go absolutely nowhere in her tape bonds. Her outfit of a white leather skirt and black strappy crop top basically disappeared under tight bands of silver tape around her chest, arms, and legs. Even her strappy black high heeled sandals had tape wound under the soles and over her feet to keep them attached to her feet. Nishika was dressed in black leather leggings, high heeled ankle boots, and a cropped flowy top that was now pinned against her body with tape just like Victoria. Natalie’s stomach dropped. She was so useless to her friends, unable to help, unable to escape. And now she was going to end up a prisoner just like her friends who were completely innocent. “At least let them go.” She demanded. “They have nothing to do with anything.”

“Oh we know they’re innocent.” One of the men snickered. “But we’ll get a really good price for them along with some fun.”

That got some laughter out of the men as Natalie’s blood boiled with rage. Both of her friends had also started screaming into their gags when they heard his words, realizing they weren’t going to be let go and potentially sold off into slavery or something worse. Natalie’s next protest was muffled as she was forced down to her knees and a large cloth was stuffed into her mouth. Tape was then wound around and around her head, trapping her dark hair underneath as nearly a dozen turns of tape were wound around her head to keep the gag in place. “Make her hands useless.” One man who seemed to be the leader instructed.

Her hands were soon rendered completely useless to her as they were duct taped into tight silver balls, and then for additional overkill leather bondage mitts were pulled over her hands and buckled tightly at the wrists. Unable to protest anything, duct tape continued to be applied around her chest and waist to pin her arms against her back, then along her legs in four places that left her unable to do much except rub her boots against each other. Tossed into the back of the van with her friends, Natalie grunted as two men joined them in the back and the van drove off.

The drive seemed like forever. Nishika and Victoria spent most of the journey sobbing as they were kidnapped right off the street by a well organized group of men and now they were being taken to who knows where. Natalie did her best to look determined and defiant, but wrapped up in duct tape with two of her best friends, it was almost an exercise in futility. Soon the van pulled to a stop and the girls were hauled out and thrown over the shoulders of the men to be carried a short distance. Natalie realized they were in an airport hanger of some kind and as she was set down beside her friends, she saw behind another group of men a set of crates that did not bode well for them. They opened one of them up, revealing a girl shaped foam insert with a dark opening that was most definitely for them. “Let’s get these girls boxed up.” The leader commanded as he groped Natalie’s breasts from behind. “They’ve got a plane to catch.”
