Part 1: descended towards her skull!

Within the demonic Brotherhood's San Francisco HQ a brutal beat down has just been administered! The (human looking)demon moans in pain as a small blonde grinds the heel of her boot into his sternum and demands, "For the last time, where are they?!"

The demon not yet cowed at being beaten by the woman smirks and says, "Close to those two witches are you? GURK!!"

Slapping his face she angrily demands, "What have you done with them!" So intent on interrogating her captive she doesn't notice another demon shimmer in behind her and blast her in the back! "AAAAAAArgh!!" She screams and

collapses as the energy ball hits her from behind!

Examining her the new demon realizes, "She's alive! Hmm we do owe the alchemist a favor, heh!"

Shortly thereafter she awakes into nightmare! Weak and in pain she discovers that she is heavily restrained! Handcuffs hold her wrists, elbows and ankles. Leather straps secure her to a cold surgical table at the ankles, shins, knees, thighs, waist, stomach, shoulders, neck and even her forehead! "Mmmph!" She weakly whimpers but the drugged sponge in her mouth and five wrappings of duct tape around her mouth keep her quiet. As she starts to worry she notices, 'All

sorts of sharp pointy things around here! What are they going to do to me!'

She soon finds out! The demons lean over her and her former victim gloats, "We owe the Alchemist a favor or two! One thing he would like is some shall we say tissue from your kind!"

"MMMMMPH!!" 'Tissue! What kind of tissue? The worried woman wonders and finds out!

"A little gray matter or sample of your brain!" As her eyes widen over her gag he continues and points to one of the instruments saying, "That blondie is a hollow drill. No real point on it but once it has a minute to build up speed it can grind through bone without too much trouble!" Tapping forehead right below the strap he says, "It will take another minute or so to take the sample. Horrible way to die isn't it? We could have done this while you were out, but I owe you for that beating! Die in agony mortal!" With that the drill was activated, it rapidly gained speed and descended towards her skull!

part 2:"How about..."

Desperately she struggled against her bonds! The leather straps creaked a bit but held her securely down! Her head swimming from the exertion she heard her one of her tormentors say, "Forget it! That sponge is dosed with a strong muscle relaxer! You are going nowhere!"

Cringing back from the approaching drill(or trying to anyway!) she thought, 'Arms trapped and chained behind my back, so weak, after all I have been through, it can't end like this!' "MMMMMMMMMMPH!!" She screamed through her gag in a last desperate cry for salvation!

"Forget it blondie," One of the demons said, "who do you think is going to save you?" KABLOOOOM!! The door to the room explodes and 3 familiar women rush in and stepping forward Piper says, "How about the Charmed Ones Brimstone Breath?"

Part 3:"My name is..."

BOOM! BOOM! The Brotherhood demons were exploded by Piper's power! She smirked and blew imaginary smoke off of her fingers, just as additional demons shimmered in! A flaming ball of death just missed Piper due to Phoebe shoving her out of

the way! As the Charmed ones battled the demonic reinforcements the bound and gagged blonde on the table watched the drill close to within inches of her pretty little head! "MMMMMPH!!" She screamed and thought 'Help me!! I don't need a lobotomy!!'

As the battle rages no one notices the security cameras much less the device transmitting the action to an unknown location! Elsewhere(at the aforementioned unknown location) a tall dark and sinister figure watches and petting one of the prisoners kneeling beside him says, "The Brotherhood never even suspected that when I hired them to obtain you two witchy coeds that I might tap their security network as well!" The redheaded little witch cringed from his touch but could do little else. She and the other witch were both bound at the wrists, elbows, above and below their knees and at their ankles. More ropes secured their arms to their bodies above and below their breasts. Like their friend on screen they were both gagged with sponges held in by multiple wrapping of duct tape around their heads. They also had glowing collars around their necks draining their magic to the service of their captor! The redhead tried to dry her tears of despair and watching the screen thought, 'Save her! If she dies no one will be coming to rescue us!'

The blonde's world was only her and the drill now. It got closer and closer and ... was hurled away! Victorious the Charmed Ones moved to the table when Prue noticed the camera. "Piper, Phoebe find the security center for this place and destroy those tapes!" After blowing up the room's camera the two complied.

Prue began freeing the blonde captive and eventually got her heavy gag off. Gasping for breath the blonde pulled herself together and said, "I need your help to find my friends! My name is Buffy, Buffy Summers!"

Part 4:"Just a little mistake!"

Having seen Buffy rescued Willow and Tara both hysterically giggled in relief. Their captor walked in front of them and with an evil smirk said, "You two seem a lot happier now! Enjoying the ropes and the fantasy slave girl costumes?"

Looking down at the very short low cut white tunics and strap on high heeled sandals they had been dressed in the two prisoners responded, "MMMMMPH!!" and shook their head vigorously no!

"That's all right," their captor said and continued, "I'm enjoying them quite a bit! And I suppose you two think that Buffy will find and save you now?" Willow and Tara both nod happily. "Stupid little witches, I expected the Charmed Ones to becone involved! I planned on it!" Willow and Tara look at each other worriedly as their captor laughs!

At Halliwell Manor Buffy sums up her tale, "So I tracked my kidnapped friends to this Brotherhood and you know the rest."

After some questioning of Buffy, Prue says, "Your friends are different than most witches in that they didn't start with any inherent powers. That means scrying may not work!"

Piper chimed in,"But I know someone who may be able to help! Leo!" Leo orbs in and Buffy leaps to the attack but is frozen in mid air!

Sometime later "So don't ever try that again!" Piper concluded to a Buffy frozen from the neck down!

Buffy said "OK fine! Just a little mistake! Could you unfreeze the rest of me now?" Piper unfreezes her and a few minutes later Leo returns.

Leo gives his report, "Couldn't find them or anything really. Something is blocking detection abilities and spells in and around San Francisco!"

Buffy angrily says "What good are you anyway?"

As Piper raises an eyebrow and prepares to retaliate, Leo interjects, "But I have figured out the general area the blockage is coming from." Piper smirks at Buffy and they go to consult a map.

Later in a very wealthy area just outside the city Prue says, "So it has to be one of these four estates lets check them out!"

An hour later the Halliwells and Buffy exchange reports, Prue, "Mine was a dot com millionaire and he showed me the whole estate. Wanted me to stay overnight too!"

As the others snicker Piper contributes, "Leo and I found a little old lady whose husband left her a fortune, no luck there!"

Buffy says, "Mine was just a drug dealer." As the other stare at her she smiles and concludes, "So I had to KO them all and search the estate! That's why I was late!"

Phoebe says, "I couldn't get into the estate but we can tonight. The owner is a big comic book fan and is holding a costume party tonight. The guard told me I and any friends could probably get in with good costumes. The owner especially likes authentic super heroine costumes!"

"Sounds like a plan to me!" Prue said, and Buffy agreed, "Under other circumstances it might even be fun!"

Piper folding her arms and scowling said, "You aren't going to get me into any skimpy super heroine costume!!"

Back at the estate the guard reports, "I told the witch just what you said boss and slipped her the card." The man(?) smirked and as his captives whimpered said, "Excellent, just as I anticipated!"
