"Piper!" yelled Phoebe as she caught her sister throwing away old clothing. It was time, Piper thought, to do some spring cleaning considering they're on demon hunt everyday.

"I know I know, I just couldn't resist myself. Besides, we don't party anymore, why do we need all of this? I decided to just toss all of it."

"Well speak for your self...humph! I still party, so what if I constantly work, and continually write my column but I have time to party."Phoebe dramatically snatched her designer zebra-styled purse that she had won from collecting 87 Beatles posters. Piper grunted as Phoebe walked away with her most prized possession.

"When? Phoebe you're never going to use it again, I don't see why you like to horde junk!" Piper jutted out forcefully. "Besides I was reading my horos..."

"Piper!" Paige sprang out of the attic doorway and tackled Piper.

"Wow good tackle Paige, that's ten points for ya!" snickered the already aggravated Phoebe.

"Why are you throwing away my favorite boots? I never even got a chance to wear them."

"Paige that's exactly my point, we never use this junk, and like I was saying before you decided to play rugby...I was reading my horoscope today and it said that I should rid my life of unnecessary artifacts. And we know better than anyone that just one of our horoscopes isn't singular. It's talking about all three of us."

At that precise moment Leo orbed in, smiling. He immediately passed Paige, who was standing by the door and kissed Piper.

"I couldn't have found a better way to word that, I heard every word. It's true, you guys shouldn't horde unnecessary items, it clogs the flow of chi and prevents the entry of positive energy. Phoebe I would think that you being an empath would have felt it."

"Thanks Leo I thought I was all alone on this."

"Uh...I walked in on the wrong time, OH...I forgot my tea is on!" Paige claimed running out of the room.

"Thanks for leaving me alone with the 'compatible duo,' and you forgot your stuff!"

Just then the box that Phoebe was leaning on disappeared in a mass of orbs and reappeared in the basement under the stairs. Paige had hoped that it would be out of site from Piper's wrath.

"Cheater!" yelled the most aggrieved Phoebe.

"Phoebe please let me at least take these boxes to P3, there's more room there and it allows our chi to flow, flow, flow!" Piper claimed using flowing hand movements.

"Fine, fine, fine, if it helps you get off my back, I'm under enough pressure and stress as it is without the burden of you on my consciousness."

"Thanks Pheebs, consider it done!" Piper ran over to her sister who was sitting on the floor going through her box of old outdated fashions.

"But I want to keep these!" she revealed a pair of old white clogs.

"Fine." Piper sighed. "Leo can you orb these boxes to the storage compartment at P3, no one should be there."

"Sure hun."

"Thanks Leo." and with that the Charmed Ones' white lighter orbed out with the boxes of old belongings.

Just then a large flash of blue light erupted from where the boxes were sitting, and seconds later a very attractive young black man appeared with a worried look on his face. He was wearing the modern clothing of the age and had short hair with waves.

"Help me," he said "Help, they're after me. I can't take them too!" he yelled holding his head and moaning.

"Help you with what?"

"Who's after you?" both asking concerned.

Just then a man with an already equipped fire ball entered the room via window.

"Brian I can't believe you would stoop this low by calling upon the power of the Charmed Ones. You know they cannot save you, maybe help you at the moment but not for good! You know he will find you, and take you. You are too much like him for him to stop now."

At that moment the man threw the fireball at Piper who froze it after a quick pause of her hands in mid air. Then Phoebe soar through the air and kicked the man into the table adjacent to the Brian. The fireball instantly turned into an energy ball and vanished.

"Paige! Help!" yelled Piper as she through her hands up again to speed up his molecules and blow him to hell.

Just then he glowed and the molecular combustion of Piper's power bounced off and hit the stand the Book of Shadows was sitting on. He then turned to meet contact with Phoebe's fist which struck his left cheek, following that was a fierce kick which struck him in his chest knocking the wind out of him. Then Paige appeared, entering from the entrance she entered 5 minutes before, tackling Piper once again to dodge the incoming fire ball of the assailant.

"You will not hurt them too!" screamed Brian, and with that Brian raised one hand to his temple and the other at the attacker then a pulse of waves emitted from Brian's hand and knocked the man out of the window he entered in. As they ran to the window a flash of red light appeared and the man disappeared just as Brian had appeared earlier.

"Well that was convenient, at least he didn't break another window." Piper said amusingly. "Thanks for tackling me...again Paige."

"Yeah, that's ten points more for the tackle itself and fifty points extra for saving a life!" Phoebe implored.

"Yeah fortunate for you, unfortunate for me, I broke a nail." Paige complained.

"You better be glad you didn't break something else it could've been much worse." Brian admitted truthfully as he revealed a broken right arm and a fairly large cut on his right shoulder.

"Well you get 100 points for sustaining injury bud. We'll get that fixed up and then you can tell us about everything." Phoebe said passionately as she helped him up and they exited the room following Paige and Piper behind them.

Just then Leo orbed in calling out to the almost exited Piper saying,

"What'd I miss?"

"Apparently a grand slam with our victim emerging victorious!" replied Piper with a smile.
