Another Halliwell secret
(Scene A – Halliwell manor kitchen)
(phoebe
sitting at table reading paper/Paige walks up to coffee maker and
places hand on coffee container and begins to pour it into a mug she
goes to take a drink of her coffee)
Paige
you're missing it aren't you?
(phoebe isn't paying attention she is basically attached to the paper, movement is the turning of the pages…)
Phoebe missing what
Paige ask phoebe
Phoebe ask me what? (Then realising)...ooh that...em...not really
(Paige
takes a seat at the table)
Paige

since then every morning you've got your head stuck in the
new issue
(phoebe
is back to her constant starring of the paper)
phoebe
what?
(phoebe
looks to Paige having actually heard Paige and drops the paper on the
table and starts rubbing her eyes piper enters the kitchen from the
with the book of shadows in her hands, she is just closing it after
she as if she has just searched through it about a hundred
times)
piper see what?
Paige nothing, just...
Phoebe what's with…
(phoebe is playing with her coffee mug)
…the book! We've been demon free for almost a month now!
(piper
takes the coffee container of she is pouring herself a mug of
coffee)
Piper

(13 – SHOT/ACTION M-S of phoebe and Paige at the table/they look at each other then at piper confused)
(14
–SHO/ACTION M-S of piper/she is talking a sip from her mug and
leans back against the counter)
piper when was the last time we've been demon free for a week let alone a month?
(15 phoebe and Paige both look at each other again)
Paige well we did when...
piper before that
phoebe I don't think we have!
Piper exactly
phoebe oh that exactly!
(piper is nodding in agreement) Paige looking back and forward between phoebe and piper)
Paige a little help over here, what exactly?
(piper walks over and takes a seat next to paige)
Piper well you see...
(Paige hears a jingled)
(phoebe
and Paige at table both looking at Paige)
piper
what's wrong?
Paige its just you know they damn elders calling, you know they never call me at a reasonable hour; it's only seven thirty... Any way what were you saying?
Piper its okay go it'll wait till you come back it's not that important
Paige cool, catch you later
… Paige orbs out)
Piper bye
phoebe and that's the start of it
piper exactly
(scene B - cuts to opening credits)
I am the son of the heir
I am human and I need to
be loved
just like everyone does
you see I've already waited
to wrong
and all my hope is gone
(scene c – an alleyway)
(a
teenage girl is running into an alleyway and hides behind a dumpster,
from fireballs which are going of at her, then Paige orbs in Paige
she ducks because of an on coming fireball Paige and the girl are
sitting on the ground behind the dumpster)
Paige
please tell me your Peyton carter?
Peyton yeah...I guess so
Paige what's that supposed to mean?
(Peyton
lets her head fall back against the wall)
Peyton
... it's supposed to mean…yes!
(Paige turns her head away from Peyton)
Paige (quietly) wow
(Peyton
turns towards Paige and Paige turns towards Peyton)
Peyton
what
Paige nothing
(scene D –in the living room)
(she is sitting at a table working on her laptop when piper walks on with TBOS she placing the book on the table phoebe is working at)
piper you no I think I've just figured this one out
phoebe you ever going to put that thing down
piper …anyway, you remember the last time the source was crown, so to say
Phoebe seeing that I was there, yeah I remember!
Piper you remember the week before it, we we're free from anything supernatural that whole week.
Phoebe yeah but this is different that was a week this has been what a month; I don't see where it fits. Plus it's not able for a new source to be crowned; we vanquished that evil book thing…
Piper the Grimware, and yeah your right another source can't be crowned…
-Phoebe goes to say something-
…unless there is an heir to the thrown.
Phoebe you saying there's a baby source out there waiting for a promotion?
Piper I'm thinking teenager, say fifteen sixteen, new to there powers.
Phoebe so this is like there pre-training
Piper yeah I'm guessing that's part of it but also-I'll get Paige to check this with the elders- but what if the source to be didn't know magic existed, for anyone a group of demons coming after you would be scary enough but also just finding out you have powers you'd be freaked.
Phoebe so what do we do now
Piper talk to Paige
(Scene E – Paige and Peyton are sitting behind the dumpster starring into space uncomfortably)
Peyton sorry bout before
Paige (a little shocked) hey its cool don't worry about it
Peyton it's just…I've been kinda lost lately...things get to me more easily
Paige anything I can help with
Peyton there's not really anything anyone can do now
Paige I'm sure its not that bad there has to be something that you love, no
Peyton the only thing I love is basketball, it's my life, but lately that just isn't working.
(The two of them return to the uncomfortable silence)
Peyton I was adopted when I was three and my parents moved to Scotland… I had stayed there five years when the told me they were sending me back, that they couldn't handle me any longer… I was eight years old.
Paige I was adopted when I was a kid, it was hard for me too…they were killed when I was about your age
Peyton hey I didn't mean to bring all that up I didn't realise…that must 'ave been tough
Paige I'm fine with it, at first I blamed myself for what happened to them but you cant do that, it stops you from being you and at some point there's no way you can help yourself
Peyton how'd you get out of that!
Paige family, friends...magic!
Peyton (cutting in to change the subject) I think we can go now!
(They both stand up and Peyton takes a step out from behind the dumpster, before Paige can realise what's happening, a fireball comes flying towards her, without knowing Peyton takes another step out and is hit full force by it sending her into the wall. Paige runs over to Peyton and tries to wake her up but she hit hard and has been knocked out)
(Scene F – phoebe is in the attic when piper comes)
Piper what you got?
Phoebe something…I think…you see there's mention of this a Jesainsair demon who apparently refused the power to be the source
Piper well that's different!
Phoebe yep pretty recent to
Piper you think this could be the guy?
Phoebe there's not really that much to go on…upper-level demon, the sources right hand man, was next in line but at the last moment refused and then disappeared…… that's all its got.
Piper think we can find him?
Phoebe we are the charmed ones aren't we
Paige PIPER, PHOEBE……
Phoebe is that Paige?
Piper lets go
(Scene G – Paige is in the manor living room with an unconscious Peyton when phoebe and piper run in)
Piper what happened?
Paige (panicking)she'smy new charge, this is what the elders wanted me this morning for I don't know what happened onemoment we were just sitting talking then the next she got up to go and the was hit by something……
Piper demon?
Paige it had to be nothing else explains it, the thing was she went to run as soon as I mentioned the word magic and was telling me stuff likeweird things happen around her I don't know what to do
Phoebe can't you heal her?
Paige I tried it wont let me heal her right
Phoebe maybe you better get her check out by a doctor
Piper yeah that would probably be best
To be continued…………
