Title taken from the song by the musical group The Police titled "Every breath you take"
Scene: The Halliwell Home in early morning:
Phoebe Halliwell prances down the stairs singing a joyous tune then hugs each of her sisters and kisses each of her nephews on the cheek. Although she is normally in a happy mood, even this is going a bit too far for the middle sister.
"What is going on with you today?" Paige says between pecks on the cheek.
Phoebe looked stunned, "What? like I'm not allowed to be in a good mood after ten days of no supernatural action for us!"
Piper giggled, "Ten days? I can't believe it's been that long!" Then after a pause continued, "I also can't believe you've kept track"
Paige almost responded but was quick to keep her mouth shut, knowing full well there was a jinx involved with what Pheebs said.
"I know what you're thinking Paige" Phoebe says, "but there will be none of that jinx going on today. I can feel it!"
As Phoebe steps outside she sees a ragged young girl staring at the home nearly on the doorstep.
"Oh my God!" she said as she stares at Pheebs, "I can't believe it. It's the worst I've seen"
Phoebe isn't quite sure what to make of this but turns to Paige and says, "Maybe I was wrong. There was a jinx and I caused it"
Phoebe looked at the girl and calmly asked, "What's the worst you've seen?"
The girl stared at Phoebe intensely and said in an eerie tone, "Your death"
Paige gave Phoebe a nudge and offered up a quick "I don't see you prancing now do I?" then proceeded to invite the girl inside the home.
The girl seemed to be in her teens and that was verified when she gave the sisters her name and information as to why she looked the way she does.
As she had a drink of water, she gave the sisters what they wanted to hear. "My name is Holly and I'm 15 years old"
Piper stared at her when she mentioned her name, "Holly?" she said, "That's a great name!"
"Thanks" replied the girl, "My parents gave it to me 'cause I was born a day before Christmas. But I know you don't want to know about my name...you want me to explain my supposed gift, right?"
Phoebe nodded her head assuredly, "Yeah, that's about right."
Paige chimed in with her bit of questioning, "Now that we have your name, why do you look so worn out and unkempt? Where do you live?"
At this point the youngster's face got much more distressed, "My parents hate my gift. I've had it for as long as I can remember, but I never told anybody about it until a few months ago. When I told my parents, they acted like I was a freak". Then a wry smile appeared on Holly's face, "I guess it didn't help much when I told them how they were gonna die"
Piper nodded in agreement with that statement, "Yeah, that probably wasn't the best move. Uh, sisters can I see you over here?"
The two younger sisters walked over to their elder sister and when they got there, Piper laid down something that had not been heard by those six ears in what seems like forever.
"It seems to me", stated Piper, "that we have an innocent on our hands"
Paige seemed stunned. "Innocent?! I forgot about those. Do we deal with them?" but she quickly got a sarcastic push from Phoebe after that remark.
