I swear, I was laughing at the end. lol Aj basically nailed everything, especially the Frick and Frack's part. lol Sorry Howie (actually no, I'm not sorry. This is the second story where I don't feel pity towards you given how you treat Brian. Sweet D my ass U.U)

And... I knew it. I called it. This fandom never let me down when it comes to these things. Sadly (I could probably write an essay how hypocrite it is but I'll save my breath. XD)

And now... the fun chapter: Brian gets hurt! LOL

Author's Response: Soooo based on your response to this chapter, I think it's safe to say that Howie would not want to run into you in a dark alley!! LOL Too funny! That being said, I'm glad that you agree with AJ's words (as harsh as they may have been). I find that this fandom is predictable in certain ways and surprising in others. However, aside from fan fic, I try to distance myself from the intense part of the fandom. :P

Well, I'm hoping the guys will bound together to at least come up with a plan. Kevin may not have his hands, but he has feet. He will have to lay on the floor and kick kick kick LOL. It's nice to see some bonding though, even through this stressful time.

I do enjoy the wives + baylee's comrade. I can't imagine Baylee cursing tho haha. At least not around his dad, so of course he would try it on his mom. Brian seems like the disciplinary one.

So the fans will vote for a liar, I'm not sure what that means for the guys. These captors of theirs can twist a punishment that they see fit. So anything can come up and I really can't wait to find out what's in store. Great update. I look forward to the next installment.

Author's Response: I can totally see Baylee being a little rebel. HAHA I mean, he IS 13, and most teenagers push the limit with their parents. I do think that Leighanne is probably a bit more lenient than Brian though. :P It's hard to say, at this point, what the next "game" is going to mean for the guys. Like you said, their captors can twist things around to meet their own needs so anything is fair game at this point. You have no guess as to who the fans will vote for as "the liar"? Interesting ... LOL Thanks again for the review! I know that my updating has been a bit sketchy, but life and work are all super busy at the moment. Thanks for sticking with me!

I LOVED it!! I honestly can't wait for an update! I loved the little moment between Brian and Nick so much.
I have no idea who of the BSB is a liar... I wouldn't be able to vote!
But I secretly hope it's gonna be Brian... Does that make me a bad person? :O

Please update SOON!!! :)

Author's Response: Thanks so much! I hope to have the next update out sometime next week. It doesn't make you a bad person that you want it to be Brian; I would probably want it to be him too if I were the reader as opposed to the writer of this story. HAHA Thanks again for taking the time to comment. It really means a lot to me to get feedback. :)

I loved, loved, loved, and loved infinite times the Brian and Nick's small scene. *sigh* And I loved how, no matter what happened between them, there is still that connection and that special bond.
*goes in a corner and just cries because they are so beautiful lol*

I'm kinda feeling that Brian must be right when he guessed that the ultimate goal is to kill them. Especially since how badly the kidnappers are hurting them, it's just luck that Aj had managed to still be alive.

Loved Baylee. He's totally a mini Brian, even in the attitude and character. I bet he can find his dad and uncles way before the police does LOL

I have a feeling that the next one is going to be Brian. Sadly I know the fandom. (but this time I'm kinda happy if it means seeing Brian hurt and Nick's reaction. LOL)

can't wait for the next update. =) You know that you won't get rid of me and my ramblings about Brian and Nick. lol

Author's Response: I KNEW that you would love that moment between Brian and Nick!! :) I really do love writing about their relationship, and I'm glad that you're always more than happy to comment on it. HAHA I find Baylee's character intriguing. I think he's very similar to Brian in terms of personality, but I also think that he's getting to the age where he will want to establish himself apart from his famous father. I think that he will soon grow tired of the constant "mini Brian" remarks and rebel in order to become his own person. We will see. Sadly, this fandom is pretty predictable. So, we will see if you turn out to be right in terms of your prediction about Brian. Thanks for taking the time to review! You know that I love hearing from you!! xxx

You're a mean one! lol
And I love it! lol Mixing drug with alcohol is really a mean and sneaky thing to do, just enough to make them realize that they really are powerless in this situation.
Why have I the feeling that the kidnappers know that Nick is the favorite so they would use him in every poll to hurt the other ones? Though I'm kinda curious about how they could hurt Brian, Kevin and Howie since they are the ones who no one knows about as Aj and Nick: it's easy to know how to torture the two youngers, since the whole world knows about their fragilities and problems, but the other three? That's what is really intriguing.

Ps: to reply to your reply... I have Littrell's vision even when it comes to stories. It's a skill I've perfected through years and years of reading stories where Brian wasn't the main character. LOL

Author's Response: These men have clearly done their research, so I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume that they know about Nick's "favourite" status. As the "games" move along, you will find out what will happen to the other guys. Although, to tell you the truth, I don't know what's going to happen to Howie yet either!! He's always the one that I struggle with when it comes to group stories ... *sigh* Anyways, thanks so much for all of your positive feedback! The reviews are really what motivate me to keep going; although, they are definitely few and far between around here at the moment. :S

Well welcome back! Although you were busy, I hope you still had a great time on vacation. You have some pretty dedicated readers, so I doubt any of us would give up on ya. I know I definitely will not.

Ooh, some kind of evil right there, of course it is not as simple as just getting AJ drunk. Now I need to know what the heck else did they give him. And AJ can't even tell the others about the "remorseful" tidbit, being unconscious and all.

It's just going to get more rough from now with these polls. Now factor in that they can change the rules and add on whatever the hell they want to once a "winner" has been chosen. Will be even harder for the guys to know what to watch for. Gonna start chewing nails now.

Yay for updates!

Author's Response: Yes, my vacation was definitely the good kind of busy filled with friends and family. :) Also, it's good to know that you're not going to give up on me. It's taking me longer to write than it used to, so the updates are a bit slow. Anyways, of course the games aren't as simple as they seemed! Did you really expect them to be?? Where's the fun in that?! ;) Besides, Carl and Angelo are clearly off their respective rockers. It only makes sense that they would alter the "rules". LOL Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about the next installment once I actually manage to get it posted!! :)

Yay!
Finally an update! I kept checking my mail for the notification of your update and I was so happy when I saw it! Yay!

You know, I'm kinda disappointed of the fans: there is a poll about basically hurting your favorite band and no one has thought about contacting some kind of hacker to find out the source? Come on! We're always one step ahead of the Boys and, yet, they are just there voting? And commenting? Although, being this fandom, I'm not really surprised... lol

Oh, the quiet ones. You forget about them existing until they do the unexpected. ;)

Can't wait for the next one!

Author's Response: Sorry I took so long to get this chapter out. I was on vacation last week and had no time to write. It's nice to see that you haven't given up on me! In all fairness, I don't think that I would think to contact a hacker!! HAHA - I would be one of the silent sufferers; not voting, not commenting, just lamenting the boys' situation with my BFF. :P Really, though, the police need to get their act together and hire someone who can find out where the boys are!! Thanks for the review! P.S. I couldn't help but notice that you commented specifically on the only little bit of Brian that popped up in this chapter. LOVE!!

I LOVE this story!! Poor guys, poor Kevin still being in those stupid handcuffs.
I absolutely loved the moment when Brian tried to step in to take Nick's place. He's so brave. And so cute... AWW Frick and Frack, aren't they just the best.
I honestly can't wait for an update! :D

Author's Response: Thank you SO much for taking the time to comment!! I really appreciate the feedback, and I hope that I can keep you interested as the story progresses. Anyone who has ever read any of my fics knows that I'm a sucker for a good Frick and Frack moment. Like, seriously, who doesn't love those two together? I hope to have the next chapter up soon as I was working on it yesterday. Thanks again!

Yay! An update, woo! Hope all is well. So much rain over here, wow. Stay safe out there.

Dang these darn non fans! Whoever is voting obviously knows Aj's history with alcohol, grr. People can be so malicious. To make a man break his sobriety! Poor AJ. I am forever the hopeful one and am crossing my fingers that he will get out of this some how. But what fun would that be for the story right?

I do wonder if Brian would have sacrificed his self for any of the guys or just for Nick? He is very brave to speak up. That's why he is my fav. He he.

I love what you put in there about the backstreet army. That is soooo what the fans would do. Someone would organize and round up the fans to fight the good fight.

I am always ready for the next update, can't wait to see what happens with AJ and Nick. Or maybe we will see what Brian, Kevin and Howie see on the ipad and we will get to gauge their reactions.

Stupid detectives.

Author's Response: Sorry for not updating last week. I was on vacation and had no time to get any writing done. I swear that vacation time is always busier than "regular" time. I thought that you were supposed to relax on vacation; not the case for me apparently. HAHA Anyways, I'm happy to see that you're still reading and reviewing. You're right in the sense that it wouldn't make for a very good story if AJ were to get out of having to take a drink. However, you never know what I'm going to do! ;) I don't use Twitter, so I'm glad you thought that bit about the Backstreet Army was realistic. I figure that there are plenty of fans who are way more dedicated than me who follow the boys on Twitter and who would try and save them. Although, perhaps if this was real, I would have to suck it up and create a Twitter account. It hasn't been raining very much here, but it has been SUPER hot and humid! It's killer for my hair. HAHA Thanks again for the review! I hope to have the next chapter up soon. :)

I don't know which winner would be worse, given both Aj and Nick's history with alcohol. Yet, the thing that it kinda scares me is wondering why someone would actually take part and vote in something like this.
We live in a scary world, seriously. O.o

And I knew that Brian wouldn't go down without putting a fight first. Use those iron muscles of yours, little southern!

Am I bad if I say that I'm intrigued about what the rest of the games are going to be like? Oops? XD

Author's Response: Ummmmm I think I would be worried if you weren't curious about the remainder of the games! They're obviously starting out fairly tame and will get more "intense" as things move along. :P People in this world are totally messed up ... I'm sure that there will be no shortage of voters. It's like a real-life reality show. HAHA Also, I knew that you would make a comment about Brian trying to fight back - I'm totally getting to know you through all of these reviews!!

Darn you evil voters! Don't do that to a.j. Although, a drink in this situation would be nice.

So, Carl and Angelo, need enough money for the first "payment"... Do they owe some loan sharks or something? I am sitting here contemplating on what they need to pay off. I am happy to see at least one of them is feeling remorseful. That may be their downfall, yay.

Author's Response: Ha!! I would actually WANT to win this 'game' so that I could drink my fears away!! Of course, I'm not in the same situation as AJ in terms of addiction/recovery. You will have to wait and see how it all plays out and to find out what Carl and Angelo need the money for. :) Thanks again for your faithful commenting!

I really can't choose between who has been the stupidest. lol Probably the police: like, seriously? Let's two potential victims of kidnapping walk away so easily and without protection just because they are not that famous anymore. *shakes her head*

At least now they all going to be together? LOL

Author's Response: In all fairness, the guys were supposed to have their own security waiting for them and the garage was supposed to be under camera surveillance. LOL The police have definitely dropped the ball!! Yes, the boys are on their way to being reunited. If nothing else, it will make for some good "bromance".

Date: 07/29/16 08:55 pm Title: Chapter 10

Dang, they got the police involved but still managed to get taken? And right from under the detectives noses. Can the detectives be fired? Lol. Nate's attitude needs to go. Especially since he could not prevent the next kidnapping. Unless he is on it??? I will be suspicious of everyone now.

The poor bodyguards though. They didn't even see it coming, did they? Hope it was a quick death! Yikes

Oh the polls that await them now. What's in store for them? Can't wait to see.

I bet the others get mad that they managed to get taken too, even though the others were taken first. What can I say, being in scary situations makes you irrational.

These guys play on the backstreet boy's fears, they have the upper hand. I have no idea how the guys are going to even begin to escape. I guess they are just going to have to play along for now.

Awesome update! Until the next update then!

Author's Response: Sorry for my late reply. The long weekend has thrown everything off for me! Anyways, the detectives do appear to be a bit useless, don't they?? HAHA I actually hate when the police are "overly competent", so I decided to go the opposite way in this situation and make them a bit "slow". You're right in the sense that the other guys will probably be angry at Brian and AJ for allowing themselves to be caught. They were essentially their last "hope" in terms of being rescued. Of course, you knew that I would make them all get taken ... how else would the "games" be able to progress? Thanks for the review!! I hope to have the next update out soon. :)

LOL That was so predictable. Of course Nick was going to win (and I choose not to comment it XD). Poor Kevin, he actually climbed up in my toplist and he's really close to being my third favorite. (That depends on how Nick, or his fans, behave) but it was an impossible game against Nick. Anyone, even Brian, is probably going to lost if put against Nick.

And that's, I think, what the crazy people thought and wanted to exploit. They're not stupid (unlike those five frown men who let themselves being kidnapped like chicken. LOL)

Author's Response: Well, of course Nick was going to win!! I know this is fiction, but I had to at least make the outcome of the poll believable. HAHA - The other guys are totally screwed if it really is the kidnappers' goal to pit them all against Nick. Hopefully, they will start acting a bit smarter and figure out a way to save themselves ...

Truly gets better and better as we get to see more of the plot unfold. I am going to give these voting fans the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they think that the guys are "involved" and it's a publicity stunt or something along those lines. I mean, truly, what criminal would be so public about a kidnapping? Kind of makes this a perfect crime. I don't know if I would pay to vote, I'd be a lurker for sure. I'd think, hmmm, this is new from management, of course they know what is going on, and then I would continue to watch.... The first poll is innocent enough, but these guys are not all about the money it seems, I'm thinking the polls will go from pg to r rated, maybe when Brian and AJ arrive. I'm very curious what the polls have in store for them all.

I would have tried the key on Kevin too, BTW. Too bad the bad guys thought ahead, dangit. Although, I'm sure if Howie had been successful in cheating, there would've been some sort of punishment. These guys seem to want to inflict some pain while earning a paycheck. Perhaps a little mental and physical pain for the rich and famous is in store. They have beds and a toilet, but no shower, that's some major punishment right there. Especially how the guys talk about how funky Nick can get. Haha

Thanks for not making us wait too long for an update! Woo. Looking forward to the next installment, as always.

Author's Response: I 100% agree with you! I doubt that I would pay to vote, but I would definitely lurk on the site and watch everything unfold thinking that it was just some random publicity stunt. However, I'm pretty sure that I would continue to watch once I found out that it WASN'T a publicity stunt. Would I pay to vote at that point? I'm not sure; although, I would definitely want to keep "my boys" safe!! HAHA You're also right in the sense that these guys are not just all about the money. Well, they definitely want the money, but they also want to have some "fun" getting it. Thanks for the review!! I always enjoy reading them! :)
