Episode 1: Losing Sight

Part 2

"I've never seen like this before," one of the demons was saying, "I feel so refreshed, so alive, I feel like I could kill a thousand mortals in one day and it wouldn't even dent our ability to see their auras."

"Even better is it sustains us both," the second demon agreed or maybe the first, Chris was having trouble telling their voices apart, "we just need to keep the boy with us, and keep him alive."

Chris tried to ignore them and concentrate on orbing back to the manor, focusing all his attention on transporting himself home. It failed. For the seventeenth time. He had to assume the demons had done something to stop his powers from working when they stole his eyesight, his birthday kept getting worse and worse. But his family would come to save him soon, he knew they would and he just had to hold on until then.

"Put him in the cage for now," the first demon barked, "we have to take our new sight for a test drive."

A second later he felt hands grabbing him and throwing him painfully into a solid wall, he bounced off it and onto an equally solid floor. He groaned in pain as he heard metal slamming against metal and a key turning squeakily, them locking them in he guessed.

"How does that feel witch? Not fun to be thrown into something is it?" the second demon snapped angrily, "except I don't need powers to throw you backwards."

"Go to hell!" Chris retorted bitterly, "oops I said I swear- I mean yeah go to hell! I'm not scared of you."

"Well you should be," the first demon sneered.

Chris heard their footsteps retreating, echoing distantly as they got further and further away. He waited a few minutes to make sure he was truly alone, he could hear something dripping but nothing to indicate the demons were nearby.

He stood up shakily, finding it strange to be standing with his eyes wide open but still seeing nothing but blackness, he rubbed his still stinging eyes but it did nothing for his sight or the pain. He tentatively took a step forwards and tripped over something, a metallic clang echoed as he crashed hard onto the ground again. This time he didn't bother to get up, he just shivered in the cold and fought off the urge to cry, silently hoping his family would come to save him, soon.

"Are you feeling any better now Pheebs?" Paige asked gently.

"A bit," Phoebe answered quietly taking the mug from her sister, the three of them now having returned to the manor and were trying to make sense of what had happened, "it was just... so vivid, I felt as if I was actually there and it was chaos... It was so horrible, no wonder someone wants me to stop it."

"Not meaning to sound selfish or anything but what has your premonition got to do with Chris?" Piper questioned pausing in her rapid pacing of the kitchen, "I know that this is big but he may not have a lot of time."

"I don't think it has anything to do with whoever took Chris," Phoebe told her, "I started to see him but then it was like someone or something hijacked my premonition and gave me the end of the world instead."

"Well did you see where Chris was?"

"Not really, unfortunately," Phoebe sighed, "but he was alive, that's a plus."

"Okay so I checked through the book," Billie announced striding purposefully into the kitchen and waving a piece of paper at them, "wrote down a list of all the demons who target or have anything to do with children... didn't exactly have a lot to go on so its not exactly a short list."

"Let me see it," Paige asked taking the list from her which the other sisters rushed to look at.

"Wait Grimlocks?" Phoebe muttered, "they're the ones who abduct children and steal their sight."

"Yeah we've fought them before, so what?" Piper interrupted.

"I didn't see where Chris was but there was something wrong with his eyes, could be related," Phoebe guessed.

"That's not exactly a lot to go on," Billie pointed out.

"It's the best we've got," Phoebe told them with a shrug, "we should whip up some vanquishing potion fast and hit the storm drains."

"If it is them then Chris only has 24 hours before..." Piper trailed off and swallowed nervously, "why don't we split up? Phoebe and Billie stay here to make the potion, we don't know how many there are and since I can vanquish them without a potion me and Paige can go looking for them now."

"Why don't the three of you go and I'll stay here and work on the potion," Phoebe offered hurriedly, "its not a difficult potion if I remember correctly, even Leo could make it and you could do with more active powers around in case its not Grimlocks. I could always be wrong about the second premonition being unrelated."

"Great thinking Phoebe," Piper offered grabbing Paige's arm along with Billie, "back soon."

"We should probably get some flashlights first if we're going to be searching the storm drains," Paige pointed out.

"Also great thinking Paige."

"Okay I think we were probably wrong about the Grimlocks," Paige announced sighing.

"No we will find him, we just need to stay positive and keep looking," Piper told them firmly.

"We've been searching for hours and we've found nothing, unless you count the rats you blew up," Paige pointed out.

"They might have been demons, wouldn't be the first time," Piper said defensively.

"And we're lost," Billie added.

"Only because someone wouldn't let me get a map," Paige sighed again, "look Piper we're useless to Chris if we don't even know where we are."

"Then go get a map and me and Billie will keep looking," Piper offered and Paige reluctantly orbed away.

Billie suppressed a sigh as they continued on in the semi darkness of the tunnels, they all looked the same to her and she felt their search was futile. Also she made a mental note that heels were not the best shoes to be wear in storm drains.

The silence was abruptly broken by her cell phone, she swallowed nervously and stopped to check the caller ID, Piper seemed oblivious and kept on walking. Sure enough it was her boss, her new boss, probably wondering why she'd left in a hurry. Either that or he was calling to fire her for the incident. She allowed herself that sigh and flipped open the cell.

"Hi Mr Klive," she greeted her boss in a much more cheerful tone than she felt, "how can I help you?"

"I th... you... n... why," his voice crackled of the bad line.

"Mr Klive I don't think the signal is great, you're breaking up I can't understand you," she tried to tell him but had no idea how much of it was getting through to him, "let me call you bac-"

She was cut off as she suddenly struggled to breath, the cell and flashlight fell from her fingers as she clutched at her neck but nothing visible was choking her. She collapsed to her knees, fighting for breath she forced her head to turn to see a pasty bald demon watching her with a clenched fist, he was probably the one killing her. She tried to open her mouth to call for Piper but couldn't speak, she couldn't even move her hand to telekinetically throw him away from her. She was going to die.

Without warning the demon suddenly launched backwards and smashed into the wall, her grateful lungs gulped down much needed air as her frantically sought out her savior. Expecting to see Chris she was shocked to see it was a man who had saved her, around her own age with wild brown hair and green eyes.

"Stealer of sight, taker of life

I blind you with these words of light

No longer on the surface dwell

I vanquish you straight back to hell," the newcomer chanted, reading off of a small piece of paper before glancing back up at the demon.

The demon screamed as flames sprouted all over its body, she jolted away from the heat as the demon was vanquished in an fire explosion. She gaped at the spot the demon had been as the stranger walked over to her and offered her a hand up.

"Are you alright?"
