Chapter 4: Kidnapped… and Baby's First Vaquish:
"Ahhhh; what a nice… reunion!" said the Source. As one Piper, Leo and Paige and Phoebe moved as one to protect Ryan, "How touching!" said the Source in a horrible "mock-baby voice". The Charmed Ones stood still as stone as they watched the Source, trying to guess his first move. The Source gave an evil laugh and said, "You can't protect him forever you know!" the Source's laugh and words chilled them to their bones and then out of no where a demon shimmered in behind Ryan and grabbed him and as he yelled for help the demon shimmed him away. A crushed Piper looked around at the Source only to see him smile and flame out. Piper fell to the ground in a shock she had both found her son and lost him in less than 24 hours as her sisters and Leo tried to calm her in the underworld a newly 12 year old Ryan was chained next to the Source's throne so that he couldn't escape this time. And to make matters worse the Source is now his ex-uncle Cole. "Now, now; no running away now kid." said Cole in another mock-baby voice, Ryan who had been trying to cast a spell was immediately silenced by a gag unable to speak he gave Cole a very dirty look. "Don't worry boy, Mommy and Daddy will be here any minute to rescue you so don't wet your diaper!" joked Cole. The boy shrunk into the shadows and tried to think as positively as he could. Back topside the Charmed Ones and Leo were devising a plan to get Ryan back; "I've got it" said Paige "How about a glamour that only works on the Source and his minions." Everyone looked at Paige and Piper said, "I think that just might work." They gathered into a circle and the sisters chanted:
"Spirits of magic; reaching out through space and light we call you to aid us in this rescue by shielding us from demonic sight!" At the last words they glowed and they knew it worked so without further to do they orbed into the underworld of course it looked to the demons and Cole like a shimmer, when they got there they saw Ryan backing into a corner with Cole advancing, "Give it your best shot you little baby!" Hearing this made Piper so angry that she wanted to blow up Cole into oblivion. Then out of no where Ryan's eyes glowed gold and he held up his palms and Cole was incinerated, as he collapsed his shocked family gathered around him and orbed him back.
