Untitled Fic
Note- I wanted to write a fic and here it is, it makes no sense, I'm literally just staring at my computer until inspiration hits and I start typing. The goal of this fic is to hopefully pair up Regina with Emma and Belle with Ruby. I am a terrible writer. I have no beta, so all mistakes are mine. I wasn't originally planning to post this fic onine but figured if I did and got some feedback it'll help me write more.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the laptop this is written on.
"This is it, everything comes down to one thing. Good versus Evil. Who will win?"
The final battle is here. After Bae wanted nothing to do with his father and his evil ways, rumple aligned himself with Cora, Hook and Regina. He is the Dark One after all…
" I can't be with you if you side with them, rumple" belle said
"Why not? With all the good in this town destroyed we can find a way back home and rule Fairytale Land together!" rumple replies with an evil smile
"all you care about is power, you really haven't change, you're no longer the man I wanted to be with" belle said. There is a look of fear in her eyes *now is not the time to back down*
"POWER is EVERYTHING!" rumple yelled
"you will lose, and when that happens you will suffer" belle said confidently
"and when I win, everyone will fell the true powers of the Dark One. Now, I will ask you one last time, will you join me?" Rumple holds out his hand
"NO" belle replies
"then when the time comes, you will suffer with the rest of them" and in an instant rumple disappears leaving belle alone in the library.
* Granny's Diner*
It was just after the lunch rush and Ruby was cleaning up the tables
"When you're done cleaning the tables you can take a break, Red" Granny replies before walking back to the kitchen
"ok Granny, thanks" ruby says as she cleans her last table
when she gets behind the counter she hears the door being opened and sees Belle coming looking sad and somewhat afraid.
*I wonder what's going on with belle* Ever since Belle first came into the diner Ruby was instantly smitten with her. She's been harboring a crush on Belle but didn't act on it. She was afraid of Belle rejecting her or worse, Gold finding out about it, she didn't want to think about what he will do to her.
Ruby walks over to the booth where Belle is sitting.
"are you okay?" ruby asked "you look kind of sad"
"I need to tell you something" belle said.
"what is it?" ruby sat down facing her
"Rumple came to see me at the library and he decided to join Cora and destroy storybrooke and everyone in it and go back to our land and rule the people who are still there". Belle said
"I knew he would, he is rumpelstiltskin after all" ruby replied
"that's not all, he wanted me to be by his side when the final battle comes" belle confessed
"what did you tell him?" ruby's concerned eyes looked at belle
" I told him no that he wasn't the same man that I wanted to be with and he told me that I will suffer along with anyone who gets in his way" tears were starting to fall from Belle's sad eyes.
Ruby reaches over and holds belle's hand with hers
"I wont let him hurt you" ruby said looking into belle's eyes
they look at each other for what feels like hours, until ruby wipes away belle's tear stained face
"how about a nice cold glass of iced tea to cheer you up?" ruby asked while standing up
"yes it would be lovely" belle smiled back
"one iced tea for the beautiful lady coming right up" ruby winked as she walked away
Ruby wasn't the only one with a secret crush. Belle knew she was in trouble the moment Ruby introduced herself and they talked. She thought rumple was her true love but considering the way he's been acting lately, unwilling to change his evil ways, she knew then and there that she wasn't meant to be with him.
*Mansion*
The (former?) mayor was sitting in her pristine home office with a glass of apple cider at her side processing the conversation she had with her mother a few days before. Her mother finally told her the truth about what happened so long ago.
After their little confrontation with The Charmings, they were back underground. As she followed Cora she knew something wasn't right, her mother was a liar and will do anything to get what she wants at the cost of everyone else.
"that day I saved snow, you made sure I was out there, it was no accident that I happened to be at the right place at the right time" she asked as her mother sat down
She remembered that day out in the field. It was a beautiful day, clear skies, not a soul in site, only her and Daniel, the man she loved and who loved her back. They looked into each other's eyes and came closer, lips almost touching, until a horse sped by with a frighten little girl on top screaming for help. That was the day that changed everything for her, it set in motion every terrible thing she has ever done. Sometimes, she wonders what could have been had she decided not to save that her.
"of course I planned it all out. Power is everything, I wanted you to be queen so I got rid of the competition" Cora smiled
Regina couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her mother killed Queen Eva and purposely spooked Snow's horse and made sure that they met and set fourth a chain reaction that lead her down a dark path. Everything that has happened is all because of her mother and rumpelstiltskin. It was too late to set things right, but she knew what she had to do. It was then and there she knew where her loyalty lied.
