call external python script in same window

Im trying to call an external python script, and so far i was able to do so successfully using:

os.system("START fileNameHere")

However right now im running in the console, and i want the contents of the other python file to be shown in the same console. ATM it shows it in a separate console.

Thanks in Advance.
