In the Loonatics' headquarter in Acmetroplis, Tech E. Coyote is showing his friends/teammates his new invention and explaining every details about it in the most complicated terms. Thanks to simple explanation from Rev Runner, the rest of the team understand what Tech's new invention is capable of.
"So basically it's a two-way mirror to different dimensions," says Danger Duck.
"What kind of dimensions are there and what are they like?" asks Lexi Bunny. She and Ace Bunny are taking a closer look at the main device with Tech.
"Hopefully there's a dimension that appreciate a certain superhero," says Duck. He's still not happy that Tech confiscated his snacks, saying that the noises he was making were interrupting his explanation. Duck is drinking from his cup of water since those salty snacks made him thirsty. He looks closely at the control panel. "What does those buttons do?" Duck doesn't realize that he accidentally tip some water onto the control panel. A little spark pops out which startles Duck, causing him to drop the cup of water onto the control panel. The water falls over the control panel and spills inside it. "Oops."
The device short-circuits and teleports Ace, Lexi and Tech to an unknown place. Ace, Lexi and Tech look around and see a sign that reads 'Storybrooke'.
"Looks like we're not in Acmetroplis anymore," says Ace.
"How did we- did Duck pressed one of the buttons?! I thought I told him not to press anything!" shouts Tech.
"Let's look around," says Ace.
Ace, Lexi and Tech explore the town Storybrooke. "This place doesn't have advanced technology like our dimension," says Tech.
Lexi agrees and says, "Yeah, it's just like being inside a history book." They walk toward the Storybrooke Dock. Lexi stops Ace and Tech. "I hear something! Someone's in trouble over there!" She points at the boat house.
They quickly go inside the boat house to see monkeys with wings flying and attacking a group of people. They rush in to help.
Ace leans against the wall with his arms folded and says to the flying monkeys, "Hey, whats up doc?" Two of the flying monkeys fly at Ace and attack him. Ace dodge rolls to one side to avoid the first flying monkey's attack and then hops to the other side to avoid the other flying monkey's attack. "You got to do better than that." He knocks out the two flying monkeys using his sword.
Using gymnastic moves, Lexi dodges the flying monkey's attacks. Another flying monkey attacks Lexi from behind. Lexi does a back flip over the flying monkey behind her. The two flying monkeys crash into each other. "I can hear you a mile away," she says to the flying monkeys. She knocks them out using her psychic energy from the top of her head.
Tech is about to rush in to fight but stops as he couldn't believe his eyes. Among the group of people is a very beautiful girl with long dark hair wearing a short sleeve dark blue T-shirt with pink snowflakes, black jean and white tennis shoes. Tech doesn't know what to say, only that the word beautiful is the best word to describe her. She is fighting the flying monkey using…water? She is using hydrokinesis to move the water around. The way she moves her arms and the way she controls the water to spin around her, she moves with grace and style. Tech watches as she uses the water to fight the flying monkey. It is like watching a magnificent show… That was until the flying monkey dodges her attack and grabs her by her shoulders. She struggles to get free but the flying monkey throws her out the window and into the ocean. Tech quickly runs toward the window and jumps through it into the ocean. He swims to the girl and saves her. Using his ability, he levitates a metal pipe and uses it to get himself and the girl out of the ocean and back into the boat house.
"Are you okay?" Tech asks her. The dark haired girl coughs out some water and nods her head.
Back in the boat house; Ace and Lexi defeat the rest of the flying monkeys with the help of the group of people. A blonde haired woman runs to the boy who is on the floor face down. She helps him back on his feet. "Henry, are you okay?" she says to the boy.
"Y… Yeah. What were those things?" Henry asks. He looks at the guy putting away a sword and then looks at Ace. "Why do they have swords?" He then turns to Lexi. "And how did she do that?"
"It's all gonna make sense in a minute, I promise," she says to Henry.
"What are you talking about?" Henry asks in confusion.
"I'm sorry I was keeping things from you. You were right. You deserve to know the truth." She shows him a book.
Henry looks at the book. "About fairy tales? I don't understand."
"Do you trust me?" She asks him.
"Yes, of course, I do," Henry answers.
"Then I need you to believe."
"Believe in what?"
"Believe in magic."
Henry looks at her, unsure. "From a book?"
"It's more than just a book. Do you believe in me?"
"Yes," Henry replies.
"Then take it." She hands Henry the book.
Henry takes the book. As soon as he touches it, he remembers everything; meeting Emma, both him and Emma sitting together, flying in Neverland and playing sword fighting. All these memories come back to him. He looks at the blonde haired woman. "Mom?" He then looks at the dark haired woman and smiles. "Mom?" The dark haired woman smiles back and runs to him. They both hug each other. "I remember, I remember," Henry says to them. Ace, Lexi and Tech smile as they watch them.
"Do it Emma, break the curse," the dark haired woman says to the blonde haired woman.
Emma leans in to kiss Henry on the forehead when suddenly; Henry disappears in front of her.
"Where did he go?" Lexi asks.
"Teleportation?" says Tech.
They look around and then hear a voice. "So, sorry to interrupt." They all turn to the voice to see a brown haired woman. She is holding Henry in front of her. "Now who wants to say goodbye first?" She says to them.
Ace, Lexi and Tech get themselves ready to fight. "The only person saying goodbye is you," Lexi says to the brown haired woman.
"Who are you?" Henry asks the brown haired woman.
"You can call me Auntie Zelena," she answers.
"Enough of this," says the dark haired woman as she walks toward Zelena.
Zelena raises one of her arm and sends a magic that throws the dark haired woman to the floor. Lexi and the dark haired girl run to the dark haired woman.
"Let him go, he had nothing to do with this," Emma says to Zelena.
"Don't blame me, the captain failed me," says Zelena.
"#$ % you, Zelena," the guy in black clothing with a hook as a hand angrily says to her.
"Hook, what's she talking about?" Emma asks the guy in black clothing with a hook.
"He knew what the price of that failure was, your son's life." As soon as Zelena says the last part, she chokes Henry with both her hands.
"Stop it, let him go!" Ace shouts at Zelena. He wants to shoot his laser at her but couldn't as he might endanger Henry.
"We need to attack her when she least expect it," Tech whispers to Ace.
"Tech, you distract her long enough for me to stun her," Ace whispers back.
A bright light appears above Zelena and Henry. The light burns Zelena's hands, causing Zelena to yell in pain and let go of Henry.
"Good timing," says Ace.
"Run!" Emma shouts. Henry runs away from Zelena and runs into Emma arms.
Zelena gives out a frustrated yell and shouts, "Enjoy this moment together because you don't have many left!" She disappears in green smoke.
Ace and Tech check the spot where she disappeared. "Looks like she teleported herself out, I don't think we'll be able to track her," says Tech.
"She'll come back and when she does, we'll be ready for her," says Ace.
"Henry, are you okay?" asks Emma.
"Yeah, yeah," replies Henry. He goes over to the dark haired woman on the floor. "Mom, mom, mom, please, wake up, mom!"
"It's okay Henry, she'll be okay," says the dark haired girl.
The dark haired woman wakes up. "Henry."
"Mom." Henry hugs the dark haired woman.
The dark haired woman is happy to see him and gets herself back up. "Oh Henry, I will never let you go away again, I promise. I love you Henry." She kisses Henry on the forehead.
"Did you guys felt that?" asks Ace.
"It felt like something has broken," says Lexi.
A woman and a man hug each other happily.
"It wasn't me, it was you," Emma says to the dark haired woman. She turns to the hugging couple. "Mary Margaret, David, did it work? Do you remember the missing year?"
"Yes, everything," says Mary.
"How did Zelena cast the curse?" Emma asks them.
"She didn't, Emma, we did," Mary replies.
"You cursed yourselves?" asks Emma, confused.
"Zelena's weakness is light magic. I mean it's clear now more than ever. You're the only one who can defeat her."
Tech looks at Emma. "Zelena is weak to light magic? That's why that light harmed her. And you're the one who casted that light magic on Zelena and saved Henry."
"Now that we know her weakness, we'll be able to stop her," says Ace.
"We paid the price for Regina's curse, to find you," says David.
"The price of the curse is the heart of the thing you love the most. If one of you cast it, how are you both still here?" Emma asks them.
"My heart was strong enough to share. I asked Regina to take my heart, halve it and place them in me and David," Mary explains.
The dark haired girl shyly looks at Tech. "I-I wanted to thank you for saving me when I was thrown into the water."
Tech smiles at her and says, "You're welcome."
"Yes, I also wanted to thank you for helping us. My name is Emma." She looks at Henry. "And this is my son, Henry," she says to Ace, Lexi and Tech.
"I'm Captain Killian Jones, or you can call me Hook." Hook shows them his hook hand.
"I see how you got that name," says Ace.
"Mary Margaret." She turns to David. "And this is my husband, David."
"I am the Mayor of Storybrooke, Regina Mill. The girl over there is my faithful right hand woman, Victoria Payne." She pointed at the dark haired girl.
"Victoria," Tech quietly says to himself. "Such lovely name for a beautiful girl," Tech thought to himself. "My name is Tech E. Coyote."
"I'm Ace Bunny and this here is my second in command, Lexi Bunny."
"Hi there," says Lexi.
"Where are you from?" Emma asks them.
"We're from a place called Acmetroplis," Ace answers.
"Acmetroplis? I don't think I heard of that place," says Henry.
"You wouldn't," says Tech. He then goes on to explaining about how his invention sent them to Storybrooke. He uses complicated terms and details when he is explaining it. The others look confused.
"Umm, Tech, you might want to use simple words that are easy to understand," says Ace.
"You're created a device that can send you to different dimensions? That's amazing," says Victoria.
Everybody look at Victoria. "You actually understand that?" asks Lexi, surprised.
"I understand some of the words. I interpreted the most complicated words by separating it into simple words," Victoria replies.
"That is why you are my assistant," says Regina.
Henry goes to them. "Let me show you what has been happening." He shows them his storybook and explains each of the events that happened.
Looking through the storybook and listening to Henry; Ace, Lexi and Tech learn of the curse that trapped people from different worlds into Storybrooke and caused them to lose memory of their past life. They also learn that they broke that curse but then had to rescue Henry in Neverland. It was a lot to take in but they eventually understand it all.
"So right now you are facing with the wicked witch of the west; Zelena," says Ace.
"That's correct, she wants to cast a time travel spell to change her past," Regina explains. "But to do so she needs these ingredients to cast the spell; David's courage, my heart, Mr. Gold's brain-" She looks at Mary. "And Mary's unborn child."
"Then we need to protect Mary's baby, Regina's heart and David's courage," says Ace. "Where can we find Mr. Gold?"
"I'm afraid she may already got David's courage and she has my heart in her possession. Mr. Gold is also with Zelena, under her control," explains Regina.
"Then we need to protect Mary's unborn baby. Wait! Did you said that Zelena already took your heart?! How are you?!" Lexi says, confused.
"It's complicated," Regina answers.
"Okay, we'll just say it's magic," says Lexi.
Henry talks to Regina about New York. "New York was awesome, the pizza, the Yankees, my school."
Regina chuckles and says, "Slow down, I wanna hear it all, the entire year."
"I found an apple tree in Central Park that looked exactly like the one by your office. Of course, I didn't know back then, but now I do. And guess what…"
"What?"
"I got pretty good at math."
"No."
"Pretty good, not Stephen-Hawking-good, but good. What did I miss here?"
"Nothing much, nothing that matters now."
"Not even that guy that was kissing you?"
"Let's stay focused on New York, tell me about the pizza."
"Come on, mom. Who is he?"
Regina gives up and tells Henry, "His name is Robin, Hood. We just started seeing each other."
"Wait. Robin Hood?"
Just then, a man comes into the boat house. "At your service," he says to Henry and shakes his hand.
"Awesome," Henry happily says.
"So, the curse is broken," says Regina.
Robin Hood nods and says, "Indeed, and the missing year, things a bit rocky between us, yeah?
Regina chuckles and replies, "For some reason you're so much more likable here in Storybrooke." Robin Hood laughs and the three of them leave the boat house.
Victoria smiles as she watches Regina leaving with Robin Hood and Henry. She is about to follow them until someone call her name.
"Victoria, is it?" Victoria turns to the source of the voice and sees Tech standing next to her. She shies away from him. "Sorry, did I scare you?"
"No," Victoria says. "It's just how I am."
Tech smiles at her. "I am very happy to meet you Victoria."
"You can just call me Vicki if you want."
"Vicki, I like that."
"Thanks, I like you too," Victoria says to Tech. Tech gives Victoria a big smile when he hears that. Victoria realizes what she just said. She blushes red. "I…I…I mean I…really want to get to know you more."
"Me too."
Ace and Lexi watch Tech talks to Victoria. "Isn't that sweet, it's like watching a romantic movie," says Lexi.
Ace smiles. "You mean when the two love birds first meet and slowly fall in love with each other? Yeah, it's just like that."
"I thought you were a stunt double for action type movies."
"I was. It just happened that I saw other movies shooting at the same studio that I worked at."
"I doubt they need you for any romantic movie."
"Course not, there wasn't any action scene."
Tech and Victoria walk over to them. "Ace, Lexi. Vicki said that she'll give us the tour of the town," Tech says to them.
"That's great, thanks Vicki," says Lexi.
"You're welcome," says Victoria. They go out of the boat house.
Emma goes to Hook. "Are you gonna tell me what Zelena was talking about? She said you failed her."
"Don't listen to her." Hook tells her.
"Killian, what's going on? Were you working for her?"
"The witch tried to back me into a corner. I did everything I could to resist her plans."
"So, whose idea was it to kidnap Henry and stick him on a boat?"
"It was mine. I was trying to save him."
"From what, what is she doing?"
"She cursed me, my lips, actually."
"Your lips, why?"
"She wants to steal your magic. She thought I was the best way of doing that. She knows what we all know, that you can defeat her."
"It should have been my decision to protect Henry, whether she forced your hand or not, it doesn't matter. I can't trust you now. How can I?"
"She's right not to. He has lied about more than just this," says David.
"You said you brought Emma to Storybrooke because you received a message from us with a memory potion," says Mary.
"Aye, what of it?" Hook asks.
"We didn't send you any message," David tells Hook.
"Well, I got one. It's the truth. Somebody #&% $& well sent me the message. Who else would have an antidote? Who else would have known where to find the savior?" Hook says.
Victoria shows Ace, Lexi and Tech around Storybrooke. Tech finds the places interesting but he is more interested in Victoria. He has been mostly looking at her throughout their tour. He loves how the wind blows through her hair and he loves how she speaks. With Victoria help, he brought some scrap items from some of the stores, mostly electronic related things. During the tour, Victoria explains each of the places of Storybrooke. She always check on her new found friends but she always seem to mostly look at Tech. She loves how Tech smiles at her and that suit of his makes him looks even more handsome. And she enjoys helping Tech picked up some items from the stores. She tries to concentrate on doing the tour while trying hard not to blush when thinking about Tech.
Henry, Emma, Mary and David are in front of Neal's tombstone. "He really was a hero," says Henry.
Emma replies, "He was, Henry. He didn't give a second thought to sacrificing himself for you, for all of us."
Henry places a red rose on the tombstone. "Yeah. Was it hard? Coming back to Storybrooke, when you knew it'd be dangerous?" Henry asks Emma. "I mean, life in New York was pretty good."
"It was better than good but I had this voice stuck in my head that I couldn't shake."
"Whose?"
"Yours, I knew how you would have voted on this."
"Yeah, and you know what this means? Operation Cobra is back on."
"I'm not sure it ever ended."
"Hey," David says as he checks on Mary. Mary is in pain.
Emma runs to them. "Mary Margaret."
"Hey, hey, deep breaths, take deep breaths. I'll get the truck," David says to Mary. He runs off to get the truck.
"Mary Margaret, you're okay?" Emma asks.
"It's the baby. It's coming," Mary answers.
Victoria, Ace, Lexi and Tech are walking near the Storybrooke graveyard. "And this place is- David? What's wrong?" Victoria asks him. She sees David quickly running.
"The baby coming," David tells her.
They quickly transport Mary to the Storybrooke General Hospital. David, Ace and Tech help Mary into a wheelchair and they all enter the hospital.
David and Mary are in the room with the doctor while the others are waiting outside. "It's gonna be okay," David says to Mary.
"Is it?" Mary asks.
"Our baby's gonna be fine. It's never going to leave your arms. I don't care who's out there."
"That's what we thought last time."
"Yeah, but this time we have someone else on our side."
Emma, Regina and Victoria are casting a protection spell. "You really think this protection spell will be enough to hold her off?" asks Emma.
"It depends, if your brand of magic is stronger than hers. If it is, no one wielding dark magic will be able to get in here," Regina answers.
"That doesn't sound like a vote of confidence."
"It isn't, but we're out of options," says Regina.
Hook goes to Emma. "Swan? I heard the little royal was on his way."
"I don't think it's a good idea for you to be here right now." Emma says to Hook.
"I wanna help."
"If you really wanted to help, you would have told me when Zelena cursed your lips."
"I had no choice. She threatened you and your family. I was trying to help."
"Telling me what was going on would have been help."
"And the death sentence for your boy."
Ace steps in. "Sorry to break up your argument but right now we need to stop Zelena before she hurt anyone."
"Which is why I'm taking this fight to Zelena, this ends today," says Emma. She turns to Hook and says, "Henry's safety is my concern, not yours."
"You shouldn't do it alone, you need back up," says Ace.
"Emma, he's right. You don't have to do this alone," says David. He walks over to Emma.
"Yeah, I do. You need to stay with Mary Margaret," Emma says to David.
"Yeah, I know, but you need help. Take Victoria, Ace, Lexi and Tech.
"I need them to stay here."
"We're coming to help you," says Lexi.
"No, I'll do this alone. I need you to stay here to protect the baby if things go wrong," says Emma.
"Then take Hook," says David.
"Are you insane?" Emma asks him.
"He's going with you," David says to Emma. He turns to Hook and says, "You're going with her."
"Mm, I thought you didn't trust me, mate," says Hook.
"Zelena backed you into a corner. You did the best you could," says David.
"See? Even your father gets it," says Hook.
"Yeah, because he knows about keeping secrets from loved ones," Emma replies.
"Hey," retorts David.
"I'm sorry. I'm doing this alone."
"No, you're not. This isn't about you. It's about all of us," David argues.
"What is he gonna do? I have magic. He's got one hand."
"You know, I'm good in a fight," says Hook.
"At the very least, he can draw fire," says David.
"What, now I'm cannon fodder?" says Hook.
Emma finally gives in. "Fine, he can come."
"Fair enough, shall we?" says Hook. He starts to walk away.
"Hang on, give me a sec," Emma says to Hook. She goes to Henry and says, "Hey kid."
Henry replies, "Hey mom. Is the baby here?"
"Not yet, but it will be soon. I'm sorry, but I have to go. I have to take care of this witch, but it's gonna be alright and I'll be back before you know it."
"I know. I'm not worried."
"Yeah?"
"Defeating bad guys is what you do," says Henry and he hugs Emma.
Emma goes to Ace, Lexi and Tech. "Please look after them."
"We won't let anything happen to them. If she thinks she can get her own way, she got another thing coming," says Lexi.
"We got superpowers that will help us fight her," says Tech.
"Go. I'll keep him safe," says Regina.
"Thank you," Emma thanks them.
"You ready, Swan?" asks Hook.
"Yeah, let's end this."
Emma and Hook left while the others stay behind to protect Mary and her baby. Tech is working on the scrap things he brought.
"It's a good thing we were near the graveyard when that happened," says Ace.
"Yes," Victoria says sadly.
Tech hears the sadness in her voice. "Is something wrong?" Tech asks her. He is very concerned about her.
"Once this is over, I want to pay my respect to Neal," replies Victoria.
"Neal? Was he…your…? He must be very close to you," says Tech.
"He is. He was my friend. He also happened to be Henry's father."
"Oh," says Tech. He's very sad to hear that she lost a friend. "I'm sorry about that."
"Thanks. I'm going to help Neal by helping Emma and Henry."
"We'll help too," says Tech.
"Thanks. Oh, Belle!" Victoria shouts for Belle as she walks past.
Belle stops as soon as she hears her name. She turns around and sees Victoria. "Hello Vicki. How are you doing?"
"I'm doing great. I met some new friends," says Victoria. "This is Ace, Lexi and Tech," she introduces them. "And this is my friend Belle. Belle, it's dangerous here, you should go."
"I'm here to save him," Belle replies.
"But she's under Zelena's control."
"I'll find a way to free him."
"Then I'll help you free him."
"Thanks Vicki but you must stay here and guard the room. I'll find a way, I just know it."
"Okay, you be careful."
"You too," says Belle and she lefts the room.
Victoria goes over to Tech and watches him work. "Wow Tech! What is it?" She asks him.
"I'm making a device that will neutralize Zelena's magic," Tech replies. "She's weak against light magic so she must use dark magic."
"That's right," says Victoria.
"Vicki, can you help me? I need to adjust this but I need someone with magic."
"Tech, you should ask Regina. She knows dark magic more than me. I go and get her." Victoria goes and brings Regina to Tech.
"So what does this device do?" Regina asks.
"Tech plans to use it to neutralize Zelena's dark magic," Victoria tells her.
"If it neutralizes dark magic then it will neutralize my magic as well," says Regina.
"You only use dark magic?" asks Tech.
"Yes. What good will it do if I can't cast magic."
"Regina, please help him. We'll use it as a last resort should we fail to stop her," says Victoria.
Regina thinks about it. "Very well, should I fail to stop her then you can use that device of yours."
Using a little device which he quickly made using other scrap things he brought, he analyses Regina's dark magic. He starts working on his device. "Thanks. Now all I need to do is program it to neutralize dark magic by inputting the data into it, connecting these wires here, set the output-"
"I'll be going down the corridor now," says Regina and she lefts.
Victoria closely watches and listens to Tech as he works on his device. She is truly amazed by how Tech can create such complicated and advanced device using bits and parts of scraps they found in the stores.
Tech notices that Victoria is watching him. "I'm not boring you with my explanation?" he asks her.
"No, I find it very fascinating. You can make such a device using plain items you can find in common shops," says Victoria.
"I have a way with machines."
"Do you make other machinery?"
"Plenty of them."
"I want to hear all about it."
"Oh no," says Lexi. Tech and Victoria turn to Lexi.
"What happened," asks Ace.
"Get yourselves ready to fight because Zelena is coming our way."
"What about Emma?" asks Victoria. She is very worried.
"She's okay but she lost her magic from giving Hook mouth to mouth," Lexi replies.
"This isn't good," says Ace. He turns to Victoria. "Vicki, can you use light magic?"
Victoria sadly lowers her head. "I'm sorry, I can't do light magic. I use hydrokinesis where I can move water with my mind, molecular immobization which means I can freeze any molecular, telekinesis, orbing which is teleporting, healing, conjuration and scrying." She then looks serious. "Even though I don't have light magic, that won't stop me. I'm going to stop Zelena before she gets to the baby."
"And we'll use everything we got to stop her," says Ace.
"She already taken out Robin Hood and his Merry Men…and Belle too," says Lexi.
"Belle," says Victoria, worried.
"Regina is going to try to stop her," says Lexi. She listens closely. "She's knocked out…again."
"Everybody, get in position," says Ace.
"Here she comes!" shouts Lexi. They all stand in front of the door where Mary and David are. Zelena comes in with a guy near her.
"I won't let you past!" shouts Victoria. "Free Mr. Gold!"
"Didn't my sis ever taught you any manner," says Zelena.
"You let Mr. Gold go right now!"
"You forgot to say please." Zelena uses her magic to throw Victoria to the wall.
"Vicki!" shouts Tech.
"Attack together!" Ace shouts.
Ace uses his eyes lasers while Lexi uses her psychic energy blast. Mr. Gold blocks the attacks with his magic. Zelena throws both Ace and Lexi to the wall with her magic.
Tech growls angrily at Zelena and says to her, "I won't let you win!" He finishes building his device and uses it.
"We'll see about that," says Zelena. She tries to freeze Tech but her magic is not working. "What have you done?!"
"Your magic is no match for this," says Tech as he holds his device in his hands.
"Rid me of that cursed device," Zelena says to Mr. Gold. Mr. Gold blasts Tech's device with his magic which causes it to blow up. The little explosion blows Tech into dust. "This wouldn't happen if you just let me through in the first place," Zelena says to Tech. She opens the door with her magic and goes into the room. She sends the doctor to one side. "What a charming family. It's a shame I have to break it up." Zelena freezes David when he attacks her with his sword and then teleports the baby into her arms.
"No!" shouts Mary when she sees that she no longer has her baby.
Zelena looks at the baby. "So pure, so innocent, and now you're mine." She disappears in green smoke.
David is now free and he runs to the door.
"Tech!" Victoria screams as she quickly runs to Tech. She looks down to see that Tech is nothing but dusts. Tears run down her cheeks as she cries.
The dusts reform itself back into Tech. Tech notices Victoria crying. "Hey now, don't cry," says Tech.
Victoria looks up and sees that Tech is okay. "Oh Tech!" She hugs him. She wipes off all her tears. "But how did you…?"
"Molecular regeneration, my molecular can regenerate itself whenever I get hurt…though, it doesn't stop the pain I feel, ouch," Tech replies.
"Same here, even though I am immortal, I still get hurt and feel pain."
"Wow, we got something in common," Tech says and then winks at Victoria. He turns and sees his device, all broken on the floor. "No, my baby! What did that monster do to you?!" He picks up the broken pieces.
"Tech, I'm sorry. I wasn't able to stop them from destroying your device."
"It's not your fault Vicki. I didn't expect her to bring a friend."
"He's not her friend. He is being forced to work for her."
Ace and Lexi get back up. "That witch sure knows some powerful magic," says Ace. "Tech, will you be able to fix that device of your?" Ace then sees David quickly walking past them. "Where are you going?"
"To get my son back," answers David.
Just as he about to keep walking, Regina comes in and grabs David by his arm. "You gonna get yourself killed! David, think about this!" says Regina.
"What's there to think about?"
"Don't let him get hurt," says Henry.
Just then Emma and Hook enter the room. "What's going on here?" Emma asks.
"Zelena took your brother. Did you find Zelena?" David asks Emma.
"I did but I couldn't stop her," Emma replies.
"Because she tricked you into losing your magic," says Lexi.
Emma looks at Lexi in shocked. "How did you know?!"
Lexi points at her ears. "These ears aren't for show. I have super hearing."
"How the # $% did that happen?" asks Regina.
"Doesn't matter how, it just happened," Emma says to Regina. "She took my brother because I failed?"
"We're all still here. So, you haven't failed just yet," Hook replies.
"Hook's right, we just need to find another way," says Ace.
"There is no other way," says Regina.
"That's not true, you can do it," says Henry.
"Sweetheart, I don't think I can survive round three with my sister," Regina replies.
"Glinda was pretty specific, only the purveyor of the strongest light magic can defeat her," says David.
"Zelena only beat you because you were using dark magic against her," Henry says to Regina.
Regina replies, "But, it's all I have."
"No, it's not. When you kissed Henry, that was true love's kiss. That's light magic," says Emma.
"See, you can do it," says Henry.
"Henry, I don't even have my heart right now," Regina tells him.
"That doesn't matter. You broke the curse without it and I know you still love me. I know there's good in you," Henry replies.
Robin Hood comes in. "He's right. I know you can beat that witch."
"But, I don't…"
Emma interrupts Regina, "You have to."
"Once upon a time you were a villain mom, but you've changed. You're a hero now and defeating bad guys is what heroes do. I believe in you. Now, you need to believe too," says Henry.
"Listen to them Regina, you can do it. We'll all help stop her together," says Victoria.
"Great, now that's settle; let's find that witch," says Ace. "Does anyone know where she lives?"
Regina gives Victoria a crystal ball. "Vicki can locate her with this," Regina says to Ace.
In the warehouse, Zelena is arranging all the things for her spell. "See, once I changed the past, you and I shall meet under different circumstances. And Rumple, you will choose me and I will be enough."
"No, you won't. And no matter where you go in time, I will find a way to kill you," Mr. Gold replies.
The portal opens as the four colours come together in the middle. "Don't worry, dearie. Once all this is over, you won't remember a thing," says Zelena.
"It isn't over, yet," says David. He comes in with Robin Hood, Regina, Emma, Hook, Victoria, Ace, Lexi and Tech.
Zelena turns to them. "And who's gonna stop me? Certainly not the savior."
"Go, get him. We got your back," Emma says to David.
"And I've got your heart," Robin Hood says to Regina.
Both David and Hook walk carefully toward the portal.
"Zelena, stop now, we're not gonna let you succeed," says Regina.
Zelena smiles and orders Mr. Gold. "Rid me of those pests."
Mr. Gold uses magic to push David and Robin Hood away from the portal. He then turns to face Hook, Emma and Tech. "Please, no more water," Hook says to Mr. Gold.
"That should be the least of your worries," says Tech.
"Get the dagger and the Dark One will be on your side," Mr. Gold tells them. He waves his hand and throws Emma's pistol away.
"This is easier said than done," says Emma.
"Do as I say or I will destroy you. I have no choice." Mr. Gold uses his magic to push Emma, Hook and Tech back.
"Come for another beating, sis?" Zelena mocks Regina.
"No. I came for some jewelry," Regina replies and tries to take the pendant from Zelena.
Zelena quickly pushes Regina away with her magic. Zelena notices that David and Robin Hood are going toward her. "Beautiful one, if you will," she says to the flying monkey.
The monkey flies in and attacks David and Robin Hood. David pushes Robin Hood out of the way. The flying monkey scratches David on his shoulder. Ace runs in and gets his sword ready.
"Be careful, these creatures are our friends," Robin Hood says to Ace.
"Let me guess, Zelena turned your friends into flying monkeys with her magic. In that case, we need to defeat Zelena to break the spell," says Ace.
"Make sure to use a gentle touch," David says to Ace.
"Unfortunately, that's not an option for me," says Mr. Gold and he uses his magic to push Ace into David and Robin Hood.
Zelena faces Regina and uses her magic to lift Regina up. "Only light magic can harm me and you're as dark as they come. It was your destiny to be this way and it'll also be your undoing," She says to Regina. Blocks of hays fly toward Zelena. Mr. Gold uses his magic to push the hays away. Zelena quickly looks around and sees that it is Victoria who threw those hays at her. "It isn't nice to interrupt people when they are working," she says to Victoria.
"Regina, don't listen to her. You can be whoever you want to be," says Victoria. She lifts more hays up with her telekinesis.
"She can't change her destiny," says Zelena. She uses her magic to push Victoria away before she could attack.
Victoria is sent flying away. Tech quickly runs to her and catches her. "You're okay?" Tech asks her.
"Yes, thanks. Let's get her!" says Victoria. They both are about to attack Zelena but are sent flying into the hays by Mr. Gold's magic.
"Don't tell me what I can be," Regina says to Zelena.
"I tried to be good once, but it wasn't in the cards."
"Maybe because you're not trying hard enough to be good," says Lexi.
"I did try but it wasn't my destiny," Zelena says to Lexi.
Mr. Gold walks in front of Lexi. Lexi tries to get around him but he blocks her path. "Don't make me hurt you," Lexi says to Mr. Gold.
"That is what I'm going to say to you," Mr. Gold replies. He uses his magic to push Lexi away and into the hays with Victoria and Tech.
"This is who I am and it's who you are," Zelena says to Regina.
Robin Hood, David and Ace get back up. Robin Hood sneaks up to one of the bowl and takes Regina's heart while keeping his gun pointing at Zelena. Ace quickly moves the other two ingredients away from the portal, hoping to stop the spell.
"You're wrong, sis," says Regina. White lights show up in both her hands.
Zelena notices it. "What are you doing?"
"Changing," Regina replies. She uses her light magic to push Zelena away causing her to drop the dagger. She is now free from Zelena's magic.
"How?" Zelena asks angrily on the floor.
"I make my own destiny," Regina answers and then she takes Zelena's pendant off her. The portal disappears when she took the pendant off her.
"Watch out behind you!" Ace shouts.
David looks behind and sees the flying monkey flying at him. David swings his sword but misses the flying monkey. He swings his sword again at the flying monkey but stops as soon as the flying monkey turns back to human.
"Little John, you're back!" shouts Robin Hood, very happy to see his friend.
"Good thing we just knocked out those flying monkeys in the boat house," says Ace.
David picks up his son. "David, the baby, is he okay?" asks Emma.
David checks on him. "Yeah, he can handle anything just like his big sister."
Everybody is about to leave the warehouse but stop when they hear Regina saying to Zelena," You failed. You're not going anywhere."
"I beg to differ," says Mr. Gold and he uses his magic to pull Zelena to him. "I'm gonna make you pay for everything you've done to me."
"Calm down doc. This is not the answer," Ace says to Mr. Gold.
"You have no idea what she has put me through," Mr. Gold says to Ace.
"What are you waiting for? Just do it!" Zelena shouts.
Regina quickly picks up the dagger when she sees what's going on. "With pleasure," says Mr. Gold.
Ace, Lexi and Tech run in to stop him but stop as Regina shouts no causing Mr. Gold to stop. "Enough! This ends now!" Regina says to Mr. Gold. She and Robin Hood walk to Mr. Gold and Zelena.
"After everything this witch has done, you're gonna protect her?" Mr. Gold asks Regina.
"Good magic stopped her and good magic doesn't exact vengeance," Regina says to him.
"She killed my son!"
"How many lives have we taken trying to get what we want?"
"You can't be serious."
"I am. Heroes don't kill."
"So, now you're a hero?" Zelena says to Regina.
Regina smiles and says, "Today I am."
They all walk out of the warehouse.
"I'm glad you're on our side," Lexi says to Regina.
"There was a time where I wasn't," Regina says to Lexi.
"Yeah, I know. I saw it in the storybook. It's great how you changed into good."
"People can change depending on the situation."
"And you have changed for the better," says Emma.
"I have to prove that Henry is right," says Regina.
"I want to thank you and your friends for helping us," David says to Ace.
"It's no problem, that's what we do. Now to get junior here back to his mother," says Ace.
"You're right, I shall do that," says David. "Are you going to make your way back home?"
"We're actually waiting for our ride until then we are staying here for a while," Ace replies.
"You are free stay here as long as you want."
Tech and Victoria are walking behind the others. "Vicki, you were amazing back there," says Tech.
"I did what I can. It was Regina who defeated Zelena."
"Yes but the way you used your telekinesis to fight Zelena off, it was so beautiful and graceful how you performed it."
"Thank you Tech, you were very brave going against Mr. Gold."
"It would have been a lot easily if I have my inventions."
"I would love to hear more about it."
"In that case, why don't I take you on a date? I can tell you more about my invention."
"Tech…I…"
"Unless you already got a boyfriend…"
"No! I mean…I don't have a boyfriend."
"Really?! But you are so beautiful and talented."
"Oh Tech, you are going to make me blush."
"I'm just telling you the truth."
"Do you even know where to take me on a date?"
Tech thinks about it "What about Granny's Diner?"
"Good choice," Victoria says. She smiles at Tech.
Tech smiles back at her. "Then it's a date." He gives a quick kiss on Victoria's lip.
Victoria blushes deep red. "I… Just let me get myself ready."
"Where should I pick you up?"
"I'll find you when I'm ready."
Everybody go back to their home while Ace, Lexi and Tech stay in a room thanked to Emma. Tech is cleaning himself up, getting himself ready for his date. He hummed a tune as he brushes himself clean.
"You're in a good mood Tech. Came up with another of your brilliant invention?" Ace asks.
"No, it's better than that," says Tech.
Both Ace and Lexi look at each other in confusion. "Then what's better than that?" Lexi asks.
"Going on a date with the most beautiful girl in the whole wide world, the most beautiful girl even across dimensions," Tech answers.
"You asked Vicki on a date? Good on you Tech," says Lexi.
"Smooth move, so…where are you taking her?" Ace asks.
"Remember Vicki showed us the diner," says Tech.
"You mean Granny's Diner," says Lexi.
"That's the place."
They hear a knocking on the door. They call for the person to come in. Victoria comes in. Tech stares at her with opened mouth. Victoria looks so beautiful.
"Tech, close your mouth," Lexi whispers to Tech.
Tech couldn't hear her as he is too busy staring at Victoria. Ace helps out by closing Tech's mouth and pushes Tech to Victoria. "You two have fun on your date," Ace says to them.
"Yes, we will," says Tech, finally shakes out it. He holds out his hand to her. "Shall we?" Victoria giggles and takes Tech's hand. They hold hands and they both walk over to Granny's Diner.
In Granny's Diner, Victoria and Tech sit down at a small table. They both look at the menu.
A girl wearing a red hooded cape comes over to them. She gets out a pen and paper. "Having your usual, Vicki?"
"You know it Ruby. How is your grandmother?" asks Victoria.
"She's doing okay, a bit better than before," Ruby replies. "Which of your usual will you be having?"
"Give me a starter of wheat dinner rolls and salad as my main."
Ruby turns to Tech. "And you?"
Tech looks at the menu. "Vicki, what will you suggested?"
"I wouldn't ask Vicki if you eat meat. Vicki here is a vegetarian," says Ruby.
"Oh…" Tech looks in the menu. "I'll also have a starter of wheat dinner rolls and spinach pizza."
"You're sure about that?" Victoria asks Tech. "It's okay if you want to order meat."
"I don't want you to feel uncomfortable watching me eat meat."
"It's okay, that's how you are," says Victoria.
"What is your order?" Ruby asks Tech.
"I stick with what I ordered," replies Tech.
"Drinks?" Ruby asks them.
"My usual water," Victoria replies.
"I'll have the same," says Tech.
"I'm having water with lemon and lime," Victoria says to Tech.
"I don't mind that," Tech says and smiles at her.
Ruby giggles at them. "Are you two on a date?"
"Yes," both Victoria and Tech reply at the same time.
Ruby laughs and says, "I'll go and leave you two alone." She goes over to the kitchen.
"A friend of yours?" Tech asks.
"Yes, she and her grandmother are my friends. I worked here as well," Victoria answers.
"You've been in Storybrooke all your life?"
"No, I was born in Altavita, Va, Lynchburg."
"Really? What did you do there?"
"I was trained by the Witches's Council as I was born with magic. I went to Liberty University and got a job at a coffee shop called the Starbucks. I was sent here by the Council to help Regina and Henry. I became really good friends with them. And here I am, working with Regina as her assistant and a waitress in Granny's Diner."
"You went to university? Wow, I went to an institute."
"What did you do there?"
"Built great inventions…until I got kick out."
"What happened?"
"He pushed the self-destruct button which I built in for extra credit. I tried to warn him but he rushed in before I could explain."
"You shouldn't have been kicked out for that."
"Thanks. After that, I gained this power by the meteor that came crashing in my world. That meteor also gave Ace and Lexi their power. We formed a team called the Loonatics."
"Just you three?"
"No, there're actually three more who also gained power from the meteor. There're Duck, Slam and Rev. They should be back in my world, trying to fix my…as Duck called it a two-way mirror to different dimensions."
Victoria laughs. "Duck doesn't seem to know any complicated science terms."
Ruby comes in with plates of food. She places them on the table. "Enjoy your date," says Ruby and she lefts them alone. They quietly eat the foods. After eating, Ruby comes back. "Any desserts?"
"I let you decided," Tech says to Victoria.
"You'll like this," Victoria says to Tech. She turns to Ruby and says, "Cookie dough ice cream to share." Ruby nods her head and goes back to the kitchen. "I love to hear more about your inventions, Tech."
Tech smiles at her and tells her about all the inventions he created. Victoria enjoys listening to Tech talking about his invention. Ruby comes in with the ice cream. Victoria and Tech help feed each other. They laugh when they accidentally make a mess of each other. They clean themselves up with tissues.
"Vicki, this has been the best day I ever had," Tech says to her. He looks closely at her eyes. "Your eyes are so-"
Just then Duck teleports in. "There you are. Rev got the two-way mirror fixed… Am I interrupting something?"
"Duck," Tech slowly growls at him.
"Hey, who's the good looking over there?" Duck asks and points at Victoria.
Tech angrily looks at Duck and says, "Her name is Victoria or Vicki-"
Duck interrupts Tech and says to Victoria, "Vicki, why don't we go on a date, just you and me?"
"Sorry, I already on a date," Victoria says to Duck. She looks at Tech as she says that.
"Wait, Tech, you're gone on a date, with this beautiful girl?!"
"Yes," says Tech.
"What does he have that I don't have?" Duck asks Victoria.
"In my opinion I say Tech is good looking and very smart," Victoria replies.
"Yeah, he has smart if using very complicated words count. What, good looking?! Good looking than me?!" shouts Duck.
"Is he bothering you?" Ruby says as she walks in.
"He's a friend of my, that happened to interrupt us at the wrong time," says Tech.
"I must ask you to leave," Ruby says to Duck.
"What little red riding hood going to do to me?" Duck teases her.
"It's a nice full moon tonight," says Ruby. She then turns into a wolf.
Tech and Duck look at her in shocked. "I was just kidding," Duck says to Ruby. He slowly walks away. "Good dog, good dog." He pulls out a bone from his pocket. "Dog wants a bone? Here you go." Ruby chases Duck out of the Diner.
"Will he be-" Tech starts to say.
"Don't worry. Ruby knows what she's doing. She won't hurt your friend," says Victoria.
"Bad dog!" they hear Duck shouts from outside.
"Looks like you can go home now," says Victoria.
"Yeah but before I do that-" Tech holds Victoria's hands. "Let's finish this date of ours. You really think I'm good looking?"
Victoria blushes red and giggles. "Actually, you're very handsome."
"And I think you're beautiful," says Tech. "Everything about you is beautiful beyond words."
"Tech… I find you very handsome and cute when you talk about your inventions."
They look and stare into each other eyes. Slowly their faces come closer together until their lips touch. They are locked in a passionate kiss.
Back at the room with Ace and Lexi; Duck has arrive back, out of breath. "I was chased by a werewolf," Duck says to Ace and Lexi.
"We did try to warn you," says Ace.
"Couldn't you warn me sooner," says Duck.
Tech and Victoria come inside the room. Victoria is hugging Tech's arm and resting her head on Tech's shoulder.
"How was the date?" Ace asks.
"Great," replies Tech. He then looks at Duck. "Except for one thing."
"Hey, I got chased by a werewolf!" shouts Duck.
"Ruby wasn't going to hurt you," Victoria says to him.
"Well…it wasn't as bad as that royal pain in the tail feather," says Duck.
"Vicki, this is Duck," Tech introduces Duck to her.
"Hi, and you already met my friend Ruby," says Victoria.
"If she's your friend then I don't want to see your enemies," says Duck. "It's time to go back."
"Vicki, come with me back to my home," says Tech.
"Thanks Tech but I have to stay here. I need to help my friends," Victoria replies.
"Then I'll fix my invention back at home and create another one for this place. That way we can see each other any time we want."
"I'll love that. I can visit your place and you can show me around."
"And I can introduce you to Rev and Slam."
"Hello, we need to get back or we might get stuck here," says Duck.
"I'll see you soon," says Victoria.
"Yes, very soon," says Tech. They both give each other a quick kiss on the lips.
"Get a room," says Duck.
"Awwww, that's so cute," says Lexi.
"Let's go back home," says Ace. "We already said our goodbye to our friends here. Once Tech finish fixing it, we'll come back to visit."
Ace, Lexi, Tech and Duck wave bye and go back to their world. Tech works hard to fix his two-way mirror and creating another one. Ace and Lexi tell Duck, Rev and Slam about their adventure in Storybrooke. Everybody in Storybrooke carry on with their life. Victoria waits patiently for Tech while helping her friends. Henry is looking at his storybook which shows how they beaten the wicked witch of the west with the help from Ace, Lexi and Tech.
