I don't own charmed, but my birthday is coming up and I can only hope.

Chapter 7 The demons entered with Tempest. Although he had lost to the charmed ones several times the seer thought he was the strongest contender. No demon had come as close to killing all the charmed ones. As a matter of fact if it hadn't been for that cop Trudeu he would have succeeded. If the coronation was successful he should have more than enough power to kill the charmed ones and their off springs. "Tempest are you ready?" The seer asked. "Yes, this had better work I've waited a long time to make the charmed ones pay for what they did to me." Tempest said. "I believe it will my liege. Bring in the witch sacrifice's." The seer said. The coronation went well and Tempest became the new source. The source and the seer began planning the charmed ones demise.

The Manor

"Piper, Andy and I are being called by the elders. It sounds very urgent. We'll be back soon." With that both Prue and Andy orbed out.

Elder Central

"We've just received word that a new source was just appointed. Inform the charmed ones to be careful. We do not know his identity as of yet. Get them to see what they can find out, we'll see what we can do to help. You'll be called if we find out anything further." With that the elders sent both Prue and Andy back to Earth.

The manor after Prue told the Charmed Ones the news.

"Like two sources weren't enough. They had to go and make another one. Chris, could you go find out what your demon contacts know." Piper said. "Sure mom. Be back soon." Chris said. "Paige you may want to warn Cheyenne. If there is a new source he'll be looking for bodyguards and a fire starter will be his first choice." Paige nodded and orbed out. "Prue take the kids to the magic school and stay with them. Don't argue we'll call if we need you. Pheobe start on a spell to vanquish the source, and a potion wouldn't hurt either. When we find out whom the source is we can plan on how to get his flesh for the potion." Everyone headed to do their job. Piper headed to the book of shadows to reinforce the magic shield on the house. Over the years the girls discovered that they needed time to relax in between vanquishes. That's how they have managed to avoid burn out. A magic shield gives them a save haven from the evil forces who are always after them.

Paige orbed home to warn Cheyenne.

"Cheyenne, honey where are you?" Paige asked. She did not hear and answer. She started searching the house from top to bottom. She was unable to find him. Paige tried sensing Cheyenne. Again she came up empty. She orbed back to the manor. "Piper I can't find or sense Cheyenne anywhere. You know what that means..." Paige said. "He's in the underworld. Paige don't panic we'll get him back somehow. When Chris gets back I'll see if he heard anything on Cheyenne, okay. Hey, he isn't the only one in this family to be taken to the underworld or even turned evil for that matter. If they do manage to turn him evil that will just make him an official member of this family. We've all been turned evil at least once." Piper said trying to comfort Paige.

The Underworld

"My liege, they have brought the fire starter. I've given him the tonic; he should be yours to command within the hour." The seer said. "Good, he should be a great asset. Not only is he a fire starter, and they make the best bodyguard, but he also knows all the charmed ones moves since he was married to one. Make sure he is fully on our side before you bring him to me." The source said. "I will my liege." The seer said as she backed out bowing. It wasn't long before she arrived at a cave guarded by two demons. She was followed by an unseen figure. "I wish to enter. Keep your guard up the charmed ones must have discovered his absence by now. Let no one but me enter. The charmed ones have many tricks and I don't want you to fall prey to them." The seer said as she walked past the guards. Her unseen shadow followed her. "You will not get away with this. They will come for me." Cheyenne said. "They will be too late. Already you are turning evil. I can see it in your eyes." Indeed, Cheyenne's eyes were afire, something totally abnormal for him. "I will not be a bodyguard to the source, I will die first." Cheyenne said lunging at the seer. He stopped in mid lung writhing in agony. "If you stop fighting it the pain will go away." The seer said. "I will never join you." Cheyenne said and screamed. "I will leave you to the pain. You needn't worry though I'll be back when your ready." Both the seer and the unknown shadow left the cave.

The manor

"Where is he?" Paige asked pacing back and forth. "Sometimes it takes him a while to get information in the underworld. He'll be here soon." Piper said.

Chris orbed in.

"What did you find out?" Piper asked. "I was unable to find out who the source is. I did find out that he is someone you have already fought in the past. The seer brought him back in hopes that he could beat you. I also saw Cheyenne they are trying to turn him evil. At least that means he'll stay alive till we can rescue him. I'll go work on a reversal potion to the one they are using on him. Aunt Paige we'll get him back I promise. Cheyenne is strong and he is fighting hard. If anyone can beat this Cheyenne can." Chris said and orbed upstairs to look for a potion in the book. "Piper what am I going to do? I don't think I can fight my husband." Paige said. "You'll find the strength if you have to. We all have when it's necessary. I fought Jeremy, Pheobe fought Cole, and you'll fight Cheyenne when the time comes. We will save him Paige, I know we will." Piper said. Pheobe walked in. "Did I miss something?"

The Underworld

"He is ready my liege." The seer said. "I am ready to do your bidding my lord." Cheyenne said and bowed.
