(Olivia is sitting at the kitchen island reading the Fairy Tales book, when piper comes in.)
Piper: Wow, you're up early.
Olivia: Couldn't sleep. (Laughs)
Piper: (Moving over to Olivia.) What?
Olivia: It's this story, the one about little red riding hood. You told me once about the time when you all became fairy tales.
Piper: (Smiles) I guess I told you about...
Olivia: You being little red ridding hood? Yea. (Laughs) That cape looked so silly on you.
Piper: I know, you should have seen phoebe with those glass slippers.
(Phoebe comes in to find Piper and Olivia laughing hysterical.)
Phoebe: What's so funny?
Olivia: We were just talking about when you guys were turned into fairy tales.
Phoebe: Oh.
(Doorbell rings.)
Paige: (Yelling from upstairs.) I got it!
(She orbs in down stairs and opens the door to find Sheila with a little girl standing next to her.)
Paige: Sheila, what brings you here so early?
Sheila: Sorry to bother you like this, but Darrel thought you might want keep an eye on this girl if you know what I mean.
Paige: (Looking at her suspiciously) Uh...sure come on in. (To the little girl.) There's a TV in the living room, if you want to watch it. (The little girl says nothing.)
(Piper, Phoebe and Olivia enter the hallway.)
Piper: Sheila, it so nice to see you.
Olivia: (kneeling down to the little girls level and offers her hand.) Do you want to see my room?
(The girl takes her hand and they walk up the stairs.)
Phoebe: What's with the girl?
Sheila: One minute we're eating breakfast the next we have a little girl standing in front of us.
Paige: Just like that, out of thin air?
(Sheila doesn't have time to respond because Chris orbs in.)
Chris: Hey. There's a lot of talk about a powerful girl in the underworld right now.
Phoebe: She's already here.
Chris: What?
(The wind picks up and Olivia and the little girl appear. They are laughing hysterically with tears in their eyes.)
Girl: Wow, you have powers too?
Sheila: You got her to talk.
Olivia: Yea, she seemed shy at first but now she can't stop talking. (to the girl and offering her hand.) Alexandra, would you like something to eat?
(The girl takes her hand and they walk into the kitchen.)
Chris: How could you guys bring her here?
Phoebe: Chris, she's a little girl.
Chris: Yea, a little girl with enough power to have the whole underworld looking for her. Your leading them right here.
Piper: All the more reason to have her here.
Chris: If you haven't noticed that's not the only problem we have on our hands right now.
(They hear Alexandra scream and they rush into the kitchen. They find Olivia, standing in front of Alexandra, facing Gideon.)
Kitchen
Piper: Gideon. (She tries to blow him up but nothing happens.)
Gideon: Not working is it.
Olivia: Alexandra, get down.
(She pushes Alexandra down as Gideon sends Chris flying across the room putting him out cold. She waves her hand and a cloud covers Alexandra she turns to face Gideon and stops in her tracks. She screams in agony as she falls to her knees with her head in her hands.)
Gideon: Hurts doesn't it.
(Olivia screams in agony as Piper rushes over to her. Gideon sends both Piper and Olivia flying into a wall.)
Gideon: Next!
Paige: Vase! (She orbs the Vase to hit Gideon in the Chest. As he bends over in pain Phoebe kicks him in the head. He falls to the floor, but before Paige or Phoebe can do anything he orbs out.)
