9.03-Piper the Teenage Witch
-Scene opens in the underworld. 13-year-old Piper is standing with the hooded figure, holding a book, opened to a page that is titled "To Summon Sharbia". Prue, Paige, and Phoebe orb in.
Paige:
Don't do it!
Figure: Don't listen to them. It's the only
way to save your sisters!
Phoebe: Piper, please!
13-year-old
Piper and Figure: Eb ti etom os. Srehto lla revo ngier dna. Lleh ruoy
otni ti tsac.
Prue: Stop!
-The Figure waves his hand and telekinetically sends Prue, Paige, and Phoebe into a wall, knocking them out.
13-year old Piper: What did you do?
Figure:
It's for their own good. Let's finish this. We have to save
them!
13-year old Piper and Figure: Niaga klaw dna htrae eht ot
nruter. Eeht nommus I. Aibrahs eeht nommus I.
-The ground begins it shake and a demon begins to rise from the mystic pool.
13-year-old Piper: What's going on? I thought you
were going to help my sisters!
Figure: Stupid witch!
-With another wave of his hand, he sends 13-year-old Piper into the wall, knocking her out as well.
Figure: After ten thousand years, you have returned Sharbia! Nobody can stop you…not even The Charmed Ones!
-The demon fully rises and steps out of the pool. He looks at the sisters, unconscious.
Figure: Kill them Sharbia!
-Sharbia ignites a huge fireball and throws it at the sisters. When the smoke clears, all that remains are the ashes of the charmed ones.
Figure: How'd that feel?
Sharbia:
Excellent
Figure: Good…they're many more where they came
from.
-Cut to Phoebe, who is coming out of a premonition. She is in the attic with Prue.
Prue: Phoebe, what did you see?
-Phoebe suddenly falls to the floor, and passes out.
Prue: Phoebe!
-Prue runs over to Phoebe.
OPENING THEME/OPENING CREDITS
-Scene opens in the hospital. Phoebe is in a bed while Coop, Prue, and Paige are visiting. A doctor is also their.
Doctor: You're a very
lucky woman Mrs. Halliwell. Your fall could have done some serious
damage to your baby, but their doesn't appear to be any damage at
all. How did this happen again?
Phoebe: I uhh…tripped over a
box in the attic.
Doctor: Well your lucky. Most women probably
might have lost the baby if they'd fallen.
Phoebe: So am I free
to go?
Doctor: I suppose. If somebody would just sign these
release forms-
Coop: I'll do it.
-Coop and the doctor leave.
Phoebe: Where's Piper?
Paige: She got caught up
with something at P3.
Prue: So, what did you see in your
premonition?
Phoebe: What premonition?
Prue: The one you had
before you "tripped"
Phoebe: Honestly, I'm not sure. But
what ever it was…it was bad, really bad.
Prue: Wait a minute,
you weren't touching anything.
Phoebe: Maybe I'm learning how
to control my power better. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get them
whenever I want.
-Coop comes back in.
Coop: Alright, let's get you back home.
-Cut to the attic. Phoebe is flipping through the book when Prue and Piper come upstairs.
Piper:
Hey, how are you doing Pheebs?
Prue: What are you doing?
Phoebe:
Looking for something that I saw in my prem.
Piper: What
premonition?
Phoebe: The one I had before I fell. Piper was
helping a demon. At least, I think it was Piper.
Piper: What do
you mean I was-
Phoebe: Found it!
-Prue and Piper go stand by her.
Phoebe: Sharbia, an ancient evil, vanquished in 7994
B.C.
Piper: What?
Phoebe: That's what it says.
Prue:
His known abilities are throwing fireballs, telekinesis, shimmering,
shape-shifting, possessing witches, demons, and innocents.
Piper:
There is only one spell known that can resurrect him. The spell must
be recited by a demon and a good witch in order for it to
work.
Prue: Well at least we don't have to worry about him
coming back anytime soon.
Phoebe: Hello! I saw it! And it didn't
look like it was far in the future. I was still pregnant! Although,
Piper was twelve.
Piper: There you go. Baby's messing with your
powers. It wouldn't be the first time, remember a few months ago
when you saw Paige and Henry.
Phoebe: Oh my god that was so
funny.
Piper: But it didn't come true.
Phoebe: You're
probably right. I mean Wyatt messed with your powers right?
Prue:
Hey, I got a job interview, so I'm gonna head out.
Phoebe:
Where at?
Prue: Buddy's…where mom used to work.
Phoebe:
You go get that job girl!
-Prue gives a small laugh and leaves.
Phoebe: I better get going to. Got a million letters to answer.
-Phoebe leaves and Piper looks back at the Sharbia page. The hooded figure flames in behind her, she turns around and him. She tries to freeze him but he fights through it. She tries to blow him up, but it doesn't work. The hooded figure throws a potion of gray liquid at her and flames out. A tornado of wind surrounds her and she falls to the floor, landing on her knees.
Piper: PAIGE! HELP!
-Paige orbs in.
Paige: This better be important, I--PIPER!
-Piper screams in pain as the tornado dies down and we see Piper standing there when she's a teenager.
Paige: What the hell?
13-year-old Piper: Who
are you?
COMMERCIAL BREAK
-Scene opens in an office at a restaurant. Prue is talking to the manager of Buddy's, Mr. Bailey.
Bailey: So, Prue, do you have any
experience as a waitress?
Prue: No, but I was an appraiser at
Bucklands, a photographer, and I worked at the museum on the other
side of town.
Bailey: Ok, but…
-Prue's cell phone rings, she looks at the caller ID and it reads "Paige's Cell"
Prue: I'm sorry to interrupt, but I need to take
this.
Bailey: Go ahead.
-Prue answers it.
Prue: Paige, this better be important, I'm at a job inter…what?
-A pause.
Prue: Ok, I'll be right there.
-She hangs up.
Prue: I'm sorry, but there's a family emergency, I have to go.
-Prue grabs her purse and runs out. Cut to the manor, conservatory. 13-year-old Piper is sitting on a couch with Phoebe and Paige. Prue comes in.
Prue: Ok, where is sh-
-Prue sees 13-year-old Piper
Prue: What the
f-?
Phoebe: Watch the language around Piper.
13-year-old
Piper: Who are you people? And what are you doing in my house?
Grams?
Prue: Piper, it's me…Prue.
Phoebe: And I'm
Phoebe.
13-year-old Piper: No your not!
Prue: Piper, how old
are you?
13-year-old Piper: I'm sorry, I don't talk to
strangers. Now get out before I call the cops!
Phoebe: I got an
idea.
Prue: Spell?
-Phoebe nods.
Phoebe: I'm
gonna do a little improvisation. Umm…open your mouth, let the words
fly, send the truth across the skies.
Prue: From only Piper,
we'll hear the truth, no matter how polite, no matter how
rude.
Paige: For only 24 hours this spell shall last, taking
place as soon as the spell is cast.
Phoebe: Wow, that
sucked.
-Piper glows for a few seconds.
Prue: I think
it worked. How old are you?
13-year-old Piper: 13.
Prue: So,
you want a cigarette? Or do you not smoke?
Phoebe: Of course she
smokes!
13-year-old Piper: How'd you know that? Only Prue and
Phoebe know that! I can't believe they told you!
Prue: They
didn't…you did, like 20 years ago when you told us.
13-year-old
Piper: Ok, this is something only Prue and Phoebe would know. What
really happened to Grams' tea set.
Prue and Phoebe: You sold
it.
13-year-old Piper: To?
Prue: Missy Campbell.
13-year
old Piper: Oh my god, you are my sister!
-She then looks at Paige
13-year-old Piper: Then whose this?
Paige: I'm
Paige-
Prue: Our friend.
Paige (whispering to Prue): "Our
friend"?
Prue (whispering to Paige): She 13 which means she
doesn't know you exist yet.
-A demon shimmers in. 13-year-old Piper screams.
Phoebe: Piper, blow it up!
Prue:
She's only 13 Pheebs, she doesn't have her powers
yet!
13-year-old Piper: Powers? What powers?
-Prue waves her hand and the demon flies into a wall.
Paige: ATHAME!
-An athame orbs into the demon and he dies in a firery exit.
13-year-old Piper: What are you?
-She gets up and runs for the door when the hooded figure appears in flames.
Figure: I can help you save your sisters Piper.
They've been cursed, turned into adults, and given powers, in which
they hurt people. Together we can save them though.
13-year-old
Piper: Why should I trust you?
Figure: Because I have a friend,
who can remove the curse.
Prue (from conservatory): Piper,
wait!
13-year-old Piper: Let's get out of here!
-The figure grabs Piper, Prue and Phoebe run in.
Prue: Piper, no!
-The figure and Piper flame out.
Phoebe: Oh my
god!
Prue: What?
-Paige runs in.
Phoebe: That's the demon who Piper read the spell with in my premonition!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
-Scene opens in the attic. The door opens as Prue, Phoebe, and Paige walk in.
Prue: Ok, so what exactly happened in your
premonition?
Phoebe: Piper and that hooded figure summoned so
evil thing that killed all four of us.
Paige: But why would Piper
help a demon, to summon another demon?
Prue: Your forgetting that
Piper is 13, so she doesn't remember being a witch or anything
about demons.
Phoebe: She thinks she's helping us!
Prue:
Ok, Phoebe, write a spell or make a potion to turn Piper back. Paige
talk to the elders to see what they know, I'll look in the book for
anything that might help.
-Paige orbs out, Phoebe grabs a piece of paper and a pen and starts to write. Prue flips through the book telekinetically to the Sharbia page.
Prue: Ok, vanquish
in 7994 B.C., powers, resurrecting, ah-ha!
Phoebe: What?
Prue:
Sharbia can only be vanquished by the power of the four
elements.
Phoebe: The four elements?
Prue: Yeah. It says here
that four witches vanquished him, each having the ability to control
one of the natural elements. Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. If he is
ever resurrected the four must combine their powers once again, to
defeat him.
Phoebe: But that was like ten thousand years ago,
they've been long dead by now.
Prue: Past lives and future
lives Pheebs! It says that the four are always born as siblings. The
first time Sharbia was vanquished, it was four sister
witches.
Phoebe: Wait a minute, do you think that we might be
them? It was four sisters that time, what if it's four sisters this
time, us?
Prue: I don't know, it's possible, but-
-Leo walks in.
Leo: Hey, where's Piper?
-Prue and Phoebe look at each other.
Prue: Umm…we don't exactly know how
to tell you this but-
Phoebe: Uhh…
-Paige orbs in.
Paige: The Elders said we need to turn Piper back in
order to-
Leo: Back? What do you mean back?
Phoebe: Umm…she's
thirteen.
Prue: A demon did it and now that demon has her, and is
going to get her to summon Sharbia.
Leo: Sharbia? Why would she
do that? He's more powerful than The Source himself!
Paige:
It's a long story. How's that spell coming?
Phoebe: The
spells, almost done, and then I got to work on the potion.
Prue:
And what did The Elders say?
Paige: We need to turn Piper back in
order to locate the eleme-
Prue: The elements?
Paige: Yes,
they're quadruplets in this life, currently living in Cleveland,
Ohio.
Leo: Ok, well then have their whitelighter tell them what's
going on and-
Paige: That's the problem…
Leo:
What?
Paige: They don't know that their witches.
-Cut to the underworld. The figure is flipping through a book, 13-year-old Piper stands next to him, looking at all these different bottles standing on a table in front of her.
13-year-old
Piper(picking up a bottle): Pig's blood?
Figure: Yes, now put
that down! Do you want to turn your sisters back or
what?
13-year-old Piper: Are you telling me the truth, with this
whole being cursed story?
Figure: You saw what they did to that
guy back their, Piper. They killed him! Now, we're gonna need to
say this together after we make the potion.
13-year-old Piper:
The potion?
Figure: Yes, the spell isn't worth anything if we
don't have the potion. You want to help me with that?
13-year-old
Piper: Well, if it'll help Prue and Phoebe…what do I do?
Figure:
We need some of your blood.
13-year-old Piper: What? No
way!
Figure: We need it, you're a blood relative, and the
potion calls for the blood of a blood relative. For your
sisters?
13-year-old Piper: For my sisters.
-She puts out her finger and the figure pokes it with an athame.
13-year-old
Piper: OW!
Figure: Now drip the blood into the bowl.
-She squeezes her finger and some blood drips into the bowl.
Figure:
Now we're almost done…we just need a lock of hair from both you
sisters, and their friend, she's been cursed as well. I'll take
you home, when you get it…just call out my name.
13-year-old
Piper: What is your name?
Figure: My name is…
COMMERCIAL BREAK
-Scene opens in the attic. Prue, Phoebe, Paige, and Leo are working on a potion when 13-year-old Piper walks in.
Phoebe: Piper! Are
you ok?
13-year-old Piper: I'm fine, but we need to vanquish
that guy who kidnapped me.
Prue: I think she's starting to
remember.
Leo: Maybe the potion was only temporary.
Paige:
Hey, how did you get away?
13-year-old Piper: I didn't, he let
me go after he took some of my blood.
Phoebe: Oh, yeah…this is
big, he needed the blood of a charmed one.
Leo: Yeah, but that
still doesn't explain why he needed to turn Piper
thirteen.
13-year-old Piper: Well, sure it does. Like you said,
I'm thirteen, which means I don't have my powers. That means I'd
have no way to fight him off.
Paige: Of course. She'd be
totally defenseless.
Prue: She wouldn't be able to freeze him
or blow him up.
Leo: But would he need the blood of all the
charmed ones?
Prue: No. The Sharbia summoning spell has to be
recited by somebody good, and somebody evil. Maybe their's a potion
involved and it needs the blood of somebody good and somebody
evil.
13-year-old Piper: But, I thought I didn't have my
powers.
Prue: But your still a witch, just like mom, Grams, me,
Phoebe, Paige. You were born a witch, and whether you have your
powers or not, you will always be one.
13-year-old Piper: I'm
going to go get a drink of water, I'll be right back.
-13-year-old Piper walks downstairs. Cut to Prue's room. 13-year-old Piper looks on her pillow and sees a long hair, picks it up, and puts it in a plastic bag marked "Prue". Cut to the underworld. The hooded figure is looking in the mystical pool, but we cannot see in it.
Figure: My lord, I have tricked Piper. I've got her
blood and she's getting the hair from her other
sisters.
Voice(from pool): Good. When will I be free?
Figure:
Soon. As soon as Piper returns, we can finish the potion.
Voice(from pool): And you've written the message
backwards?
Figure: Of course. Don't worry my lord. Soon, you
shall be back, the charmed ones will be dead, and then we will go
after the elemental ones.
13-year-old Piper's Voice: I've got
the hairs!
Figure: She's got them, I better go get her.
-The figure flames out. Cut to the manor, conservatory. Piper is standing their and the figure flames in in front of her.
13-year-old
Piper: I've got them Sca-
Figure: Let's go.
-He grabs her and they flame out. When they are out, we see somebody is peering around the corner. It's Henry. Cut to the underworld. 13-year-old Piper put's the hair into the bowl.
Figure(bottling the potion): Perfect! And now, it's time for the spell!
-The figure opens the book to the "To Summon Sharbia" page.
Figure:
We'll need to say this together when it's time.
13-year-old
Piper: Why?
Figure: I don't know, that's just how the spell
works!
-Cut to the attic. Prue, Paige, Phoebe, Leo, and Henry are there.
Henry: …And then Piper was like "I've got
the hairs" and then the demon was like "Let's go". Don't
you get it, the demon is using Piper!
Phoebe: Like in my
premonition!
Prue: Pheebs, are you done with the spell and
potion?
-Phoebe bottles the potion.
Phoebe: One return
to age spell for Piper, and one return to hell potion for the
demon!
Paige: Ok.
-Prue, Paige, and Phoebe grab hands and orb out.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
-Scene opens in the underworld. 13-year-old Piper is standing with the hooded figure, hoding a book, opened to a page that is titled "To Summon Sharbia". Prue, Paige, and Phoebe orb in.
Paige:
Don't do it!
Figure: Don't listen to them. It's the only
way to save your sister!
13-year-old Piper and Figure: Eb ti
etom. Srehto lla revo ngier dna. Lleh ruoy otni ti tsac.
Prue:
NOW!
Prue, Paige, and Phoebe(at the same time as 13-year-old
Piper and figure): Magic of good, magic of light, end Piper's
curse, in this night. She's already enjoyed her years as a teen,
turn her back to thirty-three. This demon took off twenty years of
her life, but even magically that is not right, so turn Piper back to
her real age, powers as well, will be the same.
13-year-old Piper
and Figure(at the same time as Prue, Paige, and Phoebe): Niaga klaw
dna htrae eht ot nruter. Eeht nommus I. Aibrahs eeht nommus
I.
-13-year-old Piper falls to the ground and a tornado of wind surrounds her. She screams and when the wind dies down, she's back to her normal age. The ground begins to shake as Piper runs back to her sisters.
Phoebe: Piper, are you ok?
Piper: Yeah,
what happened? What's going on?
Prue: No time to
explain.
-Prue throws the potion at the figure and he sends it telekinetically back at them. Piper freezes it and then looks at the demon, smiles, and blows him up. Another demon begins to rise from the mystic pool.
Phoebe: Paige, get us out of here! That's Sharbia!
-Paige, Prue, Phoebe, and Piper orb out. Cut to the attic, next day. Piper and Phoebe are talking.
Piper: So, we
need to locate these elemental quadruplets?
Phoebe: Yes, and
soon. Sharbia's back, and Leo according to Leo, he's more
powerful than the source. In my premonition, he killed us.
-Prue walks in, smiling.
Phoebe: I'm guessing you got the
job?
Prue: Yes, I did!
Piper: Congrats Prue.
-Piper looks worried.
Prue: What's wrong sweetie.
Piper: This
whole Sharbia thing is all my fault.
Phoebe: No-no it's not.
The demon tricked you. He must have been planning this. It could have
been any of us he turned thirteen.
Piper: Yeah, but I released an
anciant evil that we can't even stop.
Prue: Yeah, by
manipulating you. He made you think you were helping us.
Piper:
Well we need to find these elemental ones, fast. Before Phoebe's
premonition comes true.
Prue: Hey, where's Paige?
Piper:
Umm…I think she took Henry to Italy or something.
Phoebe: I
better get--OH!
-She grabs her stomach. Phoebe suddenly has a premonition of her dying after her daughter is born.
Piper: What?
-Phoebe doesn't answer for a minute, then lies and says…
Phoebe: Oh, nothing. Just the baby kicking.
The End
