Okay, the initial kidnapping was enough of a pain- but now that they've got through the hero scrambling through the code their sidekick had put together to find them, the villain going a little soft for the kid, and all the sidekick angsting about the hero not coming, it blew up in a physical custody battle.
So of course, the Bigger Bad would take full advantage of the distraction to hit them both where it hurts, and kidnaps the sidekick again- and they aren't one to go soft.
This kid can't catch a fucking break.
(Basically, a bit of "villain kidnaps the sidekick and ends up adopting them" mixed with "hero and villain have to put aside their differences to fight a bigger bad/save someone they both care about". Also, I had a character I wanted to use)
