P3's Printed Perils part 1:Delivery for Mr Gordon
Fortunato the fiction demon prepared 4 books and thought, 'Direct battle with the Charmed ones has been fatal for all opponents except that madman Morpheus. Fortunately direct conflict is not necessary for me!' Picking up the first book he began infusing his dark energies into it and continued thinking, 'My unique ability will draw the witches into these novels where they will be in great danger. And if they die there, they die in the real world as well!' Placing the first book in an envelope marked , Prue Halliwell, he picked up two copies of another book. Putting his power into both of these as well he thought,'This should be interesting.' One copy was put in an envelope for Piper and the other in a separate one. As the final book was prepared and placed in an envelope for Phoebe, he thought, 'This is truly evil, I almost feel guilty about her fate! Satan himself would proudly call those little monsters his own spawn. Poor little Phoebe!'
The next day in Seattle: "Just sign here Mr Gordon."
Dan did so and taking the package inside opened it and saw, 'The Collector? Wasn't there a movie about that? Who ...' His thoughts were cut off as he touches the book and is sucked into the story!

Prue having just returned from a photo shoot looked through the mail. All three sisters had packages. Piper took hers along to open at the club as she was running late and Phoebe was taking a nap. 'That girl sure loves to sleep.' Prue thought as she opened her package and saw a book within. She touched the book and disappeared!
Prue reappeared somewhere else. 'What the?' She thought observing, 'I am in some sort of stadium complex with people in out of fashion clothes, way out of fashion, am I in the past or maybe the book? Either way fortunately my blue jeans and black blouse are fairly generic at least no one is staring at me. Blasted demons or warlocks!' "I am ready for my interview now miss come right in." A tall blond man said and ushered Prue into his office.
Playing along until she thought of a better idea Prue stepped into the office and as the door closed was struck down from behind! The man put Prue into a wooden chair and started taping her to it with lots of duct tape thinking 'I hate snoopy American reporters! Oh well it's not as if she or any of the tens of thousands of spectators have long to live!'
P3's Printed Perils part 3: Now you are mine!
Piper had just finished getting a table ready for a private lunch at P3 with Leo. Looking very beautiful in a blue blouse, short white skirt and blue high heels she got a little impatient and decided to open her package while she waited. Leo orbed in just as she got it open causing her to dump the book on the floor. Piper blushed and bent over to pick up the book, giving Leo a very enjoyable view of her legs until she touched the book and vanished! "PIPER!" Leo shouted and dashed over and picked up the book, titled the Collector. But the magic was already used on Piper and Leo just stood in shock.
Piper discovered herself somewhere else! 'This isn't San Francisco and the book is gone, could I be inside it? What was in the movie they made of it? Some nut kidnapping a woman he was obsessed with? And she died! I don't like this!' As Piper thought she didn't notice a man in a van until she was right at it. The door opened and a familiar face showed itself. "Dan? What are you doing here and what's in the hand behind your back? Piper worriedly questioned. Dan's response was to bring a cloth from behind his back and towards Piper's face! "EEK!" Piper yelped and tried to freeze him, but to her surprise it only made him move in slow motion! Piper's surprise and the close distance enabled Dan to get the sickly sweet smelling cloth over her nose and mouth! Piper struggled as best she could as she realized, 'My powers are weakened greatly here! He's too strong for me! This chloroform is making me sleepppppp...'
Putting the now unconscious Piper in his van Dan talked to Piper as he tied her up. "We'll be together forever now my love! I don't know what this place is or why I have these strange impulses but at least now you are mine!" After tying Piper's wrists and ankles Dan stuffed a rag in her mouth and used a second one to tie it in place, saying "You won't argue with me about that Leo anymore now will you Piper?"
As he drove off Fortunato observed the events from his own realm and thought, 'Interesting Dan being a mortal doesn't have full control of his actions like the witches. Instead he combines the book's characters obsession with his own. Heh, it's bad for the little witch either way!'
