Chapter/Scene 1 - The Manor; the beginning of our story.

The front door to the manor opened and in walked Piper from out of the cold carrying a bag of groceries in one arm and a diaper bag in the other. Leo walked in, Chris strapped into the baby-carrier that hung over his chest while Wyatt held his hand, carring in the free one a small bag of herbs and glass bottles. A scream was heard from the attic shortly following their enterance, an explosion followed right after.
"Paige! Give it a rest up there, will ya?" Phoebe called up the stairs as she hurried down them.
"Phoebe.. where are you off to this lovely afternoon?" Piper smiled at her sister as she followed them into the kitchen.
"I - my dear sister, who I absolutely love! - am off to the park with Wyatt," Phoebe set her bag down on the table and started applying her lipstick.
"You're taking Wyatt to the park when it's this cold out? Are you nuts? Phoebe, it's freezing!"
Coughing emerged from the other room and in came Paige, hair disheveled and a smudge of soot upon her brow. "Oh, so you told her about going to flirt with that single dad, huh?"
"What!" Piper dropped the cereal box she was holding and starred at Phoebe.
"Paige!" Phoebe glared over at her baby sister. 'Oops,' was all that Paige mouthed back to her in response.
"What are you using my son - your nephew - for now?"
"Well.. there's this guy, right? And he's really hot. He's a single daddy. His wife passed away a year ago and uh.. well," she laughed. "I saw him checking me out."
"Checking you out? Phoebe, the guy was practically undressing you with his eyes!" Paige chipped in. Phoebe laughed and Piper did too -- nervously.
"Soo.. can I borrow Wyatt?" she smiled.
"You're not going to actually tell this guy that Wyatt is your son, are you? I mean, c'mon Phoebe-" Piper started.
"No, no, no! I'm going to tell him he's my nephew. But.. I think having Wyatt with me will help to better my odds, don't you think?"
"Phoebe.." Piper started.
"Ah, ah, ah! Don't say it! I know, I know, okay? But Piper.. I'm desperate. It's almost Valentine's day and I still haven't gotten a date."
"Well, I'm sorry Pheebes, but it's Wyatt's naptime. Why don't you take Paige with you?"
"Yeah Phoebe, I'll go with you," Paige said, she was at the kitchen sink wiping away the soot and fixing her hair.
"Well, I guess it couldn't hurt," Phoebe smiled at Paige. "Let's get a move on it."
"You mean him, don't you?" Piper asked, teasingly.
"Huh?" Phoebe's face shown confusion.
"Get a move on him," Piper grinned now.
"Geez Piper, get better material. Come on Paige, let's go." Paige walked over and took Phoebe's hand. They disappeared in a flurry of blue and white orbs.
"Well, that was interesting. Leo, can you put the boys down? I'm going to go and see what Paige was up to in the attic."
Leo picked Wyatt up. "Sure, Piper. Come on boys, let's get you to sleep." He left the room with them both. Piper put all the groceries to one side before heading up to the attic. Inside furniture was blackened by fire-burns and cotton was strewn across the floor in every direction imaginable. The potion bowl was still smoking. "What on earth?" She walked over to the area and saw the Book of Shadows layed out infront of it. The page was opened up to show a demon called 'Rabio.' Leo entered the attic at that moment and she looked up from the book. "Honey, could you get me a dust-pan and broom? Paige left me a mess to clean up."
He nodded. "I see that. What was she doing up here anyway?"
"I don't know, making a potion it seems. For a demon named Rabio."
"Rabio?" He walked over to where she and the book were.
"Uh huh, Rabio. It says here that Rabio is a demon with the ability to steal both good-powers and good-auras. What is that supposed to mean? That he's running around stealing people's goodness?"
"Well, no. It means that he's cloaking himself in a good-aura. So the only way to find him is to look for a good-aura that's slightly less than it should be. Afterall, if he's killing innocents his good-aura is rather seriously tainted with the blood of their bodies," Leo explained.
"Right, okay, but we haven't been attacked by demons at all and now all of a sudden Paige has a demon she just has to kill without telling us? I mean.. you would think she'd enjoy this down-time from all the massive attempts on our lives and on the lives of her nephews. And now she's just-just... going out and going demon-hunting? I mean, c'mon Leo, what's the psychology behind that?" Piper slammed the book closed and stood fuming, looking down at the potion mixture.
"Piper, I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explaination for it. Why don't you just ask her about it when they get back?"
"I think I just might," she muttered, mainly to herself as Leo headed towards the stairs to get her dust-pan and broom.
