Rose shrugged. "Sounds good to me. Let me see if I can catch Ryan." Rose walked outside. "Ryan!" She called toward the parking lot. Right before Ryan turned around, Rose was pulled into an ally near the front door of Blue Room. "Wha--" A hand slammed over her mouth and Rose found herself looking up at Clay.

Clay leaned down and said in Rose's ear, "How about I just take you before James has the chance?" Rose bit Clay's hand and kneed him in the crotch, but Clay was a lot stronger than she thought he was. He just smirked and started trying to rip her clothes off.

As she struggled against Clay, Rose tried to say a spell, but only succeeded in making herself black out from the effort.

Meanwhile, Ryan realized he had dropped his wallet. He tried to call Rose on his cell phone to see if she saw it in the restaurant. When Rose didn't answer, he called Allison. "Hey, Allison, Rose didn't answer her phone. I forgot my wallet. If you see Rose can you get her to bring it home with her?"

Allison answered her blackberry, a gift given to her by the twins on her last birthday. "Yeah sure Ryan. I'll do my best to locate her". after looking around the Blue Room and the Girls room, Allison found no sign of Rose which was weird because Rose was usually everywhere. She came back looking worried and said to James "Would you go look for Rose? She's nowhere in the building".

James looked at Allison "Sure. I'll go find her she shouldn't be too far". James went outside and looked everywhere for Rose. He then proceeded to look for her in the alley. He had a strange feeling she might be there with that Clay dude. Soon he came upon them and saw Clay was trying to rape Rose. He ran towards them then jerked Clay up from Rose with his hands and slammed him against the wall "What do you think your doing?! Rose has done nothing to you and this is how you treat her!" James began to choke Clay. He hated guys like Clay. It wouldn't take much just to strangle him to death right in the alley. But James couldn't handle time in prison. He loosened his grip some "I'm going to give you the chance right now to just run away from here and to leave Rose alone from now on. If you do not do that, then I will get the cops after you. Which choice are you going to choose? Leave Rose alone, and run, or go to jail?"

Clay glared at James and then hit him in the face. He then ran off toward his house.

Rose looked astonished. How was James always at the right place at the right time? She said nothing but hugged James, trying not to cry.

James hugged Rose back. His face stung where Clay hit him, there would probably be a bruise later on his face, but it would go away. He looked down at Rose "Are you okay? Did he rape you?" James hoped that he had gotten to her in time and that Clay hadn't raped her.

Rose shook her head no. She was shaking. Something like this had never happened to her before. She never even thought that it could. She figured that even without her powers, she could fight off anyone with what her father and mother had taught her. 'I'll have to do more physical training,' was her only thought. Both twins had invested more in magical training than physical and now, that seemed pretty stupid. Rose buried her face into James's chest and started her eyes started to well up with tears.

James just held Rose until she stopped crying. He had no idea how to handle something like this and all he could offer was comfort. After Rose's sobs died down he said "Allison got texted by Ryan and he's looking for his wallet. Do you still want to dine with Allison and go freshen up or do you want to go home?"

Allison sat at a empty table by herself. Where were the others? An hour had gone by and none of the others showed up. No one even texted her and that was odd. The last text was from Ryan, but she hadn't even seen him and that was an hour ago. Allison stood up and got ready to leave. She would text the others later. As she was going out the door, Allison realized she didn't even have a ride back home. Then suddenly someone grabbed her from behind with a knife to her throat "Just do as I say, and I might not kill you. Go to that red car over there, it's mine". turns out it was Deidre, Ryan's date. She must have saw me talking to Ryan before or either saw him gawking at me. Allison nodded, and done as she said and walked to the car. "Don't worry kiddo. Trust me the twins aren't going to miss you that much. They are already busy with something else". Deidre ordered Allison in the trunk and tied her up. Then she got into the car and took off.

Meanwhile, Ryan turned back. He hadn't heard from anyone and wondered what was going on. He found James and Rose in the ally. After making a silent vow to kill Clay, Ryan suggested that they go back inside and find Allison. The three walked inside and the hostess told them that Allison had left. While Ryan retrieved his wallet, Rose tried to call Allison. She heard Allison's ring tone outside. Rose walked back out the door, with James following her. Allison's Blackberry lay on the ground. "Oh, this isn't good." Rose picked up the phone and got a flash of Allison being forced into a car trunk. "Allison was kidnapped," she announced just as Ryan walked out.

"How do you know that?" demanded Ryan. He exchanged a look with Rose. "Oh," he said, realizing. Rose often had visions but only when it involved close friends or family.

Allison began to scream for help. Here she was locked up in the trunk by some psycho! "Helppppp meeeee!" she shouted in the trunk. She wondered how long It would be before the Twins or anyone could find her. Surely no one would wait tomorrow! "Let me out! Please! I haven't done anything!"

James "What are we going to do? We have no idea where she is". James looked worried.

Ryan and Rose exchanged a look. 'Someone had to find out eventually,' Ryan said to Rose telepathically.

Rose pulled a small book out of her pocket. "James, what you're about to see... you can't tell anyone, ok? This is really important."

James looked at Rose studying her wondering what she was talking about and what the book was for. "Okay sure. I can keep a secret". he stood and watched her.

Deidre parked the car at a secret location that only she knew about. She had gotten so tired of Allison screaming and pounding in the back. Man, that girl has some lungs on her. If I don't do something about soon, she'll drawl attention towards us. Deidre pulled out a needle and poured some poison into it. I'll give her just a little bit of the dose and it won't kill her. She thought. Deidre got out and went to the trunk she unlocked it and dragged Allison out. "Your making too much noise, and it's going to draw attention. Calm down!"

Allison looked at her and began to squirm "You won't get away with this! My friends will find you and you'll pay! Plus, my mom's a cop and you'll be behind bars!"

Deidre laughed "I'll be long gone before then and so will you. Ryan isn't getting you. I don't know what he sees in you but if I can't have him neither can you!"

Allison struggled more "You can't do this. You just can't-" she practically yelled. Then Allison gasped in pain as a needle was injected into her not once, but twice. Allison felt weak and passed out .

Deidre watched Allison as she passed out and then dragged her inside the isolated Cabin and began to tie her in a chair.

Rose began to chant softly in Latin. A small ball of white light appeared before the three teens. "The light will lead us to Allison," Rose swayed on her feet. The spell took a lot out of her.

Ryan steadied his sister and said, "I will be so glad when our powers are not messing up... James can you drive? I only have my motorcycle and Rose is in no condition."

James looked at Rose in shock and surprised. What was Rose? And why was she chanting in Latin? He blinked at Ryan's question and then answered "Uh-huh. Sure, I can drive no problemo". he took the keys to the Twin's Impala and got in the front "Man, this is a nice car!" he started it up once they helped Rose in.

Deirdre soon came from her room with a suitcase packed. "Well, Allison it was nice knowing you and the twins. By the time they get here, I will be gone and so will you. Looks like Ryan will get no one". she laughed. Deirdre had no idea just how powerful the twins were. "My time is up, I must go". she went out the door leaving Allison all alone.

Rose sat curled up in the passenger seat. "Ryan and I are witches, James. It comes from our mom's side of the family. We never use our powers for evil. We use them to hunt evil. That's why our older sister, Delian, moved. She is working her own hunting jobs now that our parents have retired."

James stared at Rose surprised that she had admitted this to him. He didn't really know what to think about witches except some were evil, and some were not. And most that he heard about were in stories and movies. He'd never even stopped to consider Witches could even be real even in his lifetime. His eyes grew big and he swallowed feeling his throat go dry. He tried to think of something to say that wouldn't hurt Rose's feelings or Ryan's since they were still his friends.

"Ah, as long as your both not evil and don't turn people into toads or other small things then I guess I'm cool with that". he said then smiled at Rose.

Allison felt numb all over. She wanted to do everything to escape but everything inside of her seemed to just go numb. She couldn't hardly move to untie herself and she was starting to feel sick. What if she never saw Ryan again? Didn't get to tell him how she felt about him? Then she would never know, heck she probably wouldn't live through the night anyway. Allison tried to stay awake, but it was so hard. And she was hungry the last time she ate was what around lunchtime? Oh Geese, Allison thought . The last thing I need to worry about is freaking eating. She thought.

"We hunt evil," Ryan and Rose said in unison. Ryan added, "Our powers are going a little haywire though, since it's the week before our birthday. That's why Rose has been getting dizzy and close to passing out."

"Yeah," Rose said. "Lucky I had James there to save me." The three continued to follow the small light until James finally pulled over to a building where the light stopped. "Allison must be inside." Rose, feeling better, got out of the car. Ryan led the way as he kicked open the door.

"You two look out for whoever took her," Ryan whispered.

James looked at Ryan and nodded. He pulled out a Knife that he kept for protection most of the time incase the kidnapper was still around. Him and Rose checked everywhere. There was no sign of anyone.

Allison woke to the sound of a car pulling up the driveway and began to shiver. She thought it was Deidre to come back to see if she was dead. Then she heard the door being kicked open and jumped at the sound. Please don't let be Deidre she silently prayed. She wondered how long she had been asleep. "Hello?" she called her voice sounding too weak. "Who's there?"
