Prologue.

Belle woke up and looked around to complete darkness, she looked back and forth before calling out.

"Rumple?"

She noticed the bed she was laying on was fitted with black satin sheets and she lifted them off and stepped on the floor which sent goosebumps up her body by how cold it was.

She walked a few steps and stopped.

"Where am I?" Belle said out loud.

"Hello Belle." A voice said.

Belle jumped and looked back and forth so fast she was sure she would get whiplash.

"Who is there?" she said.

Suddenly there was a bright light shining in her eyes which she was sure would blind her had she not shielded her eyes, after a few seconds the light faded showing an image that shocked her it was an image of herself.

"What in the-"

"Don't worry you're not going crazy."

"I remember you, you stay away from me."

The image of Belle chuckled. "Oh come on Belle if only you had listened to me in the Snow Queen's lair all of this would've never happened."

"Well you can save it, I did this to protect my child."

"And yet you're still under a sleeping curse why?"

"Because Rumple hasn't found a way to defeat Hades yet."

"Oh honey you don't really believe that do you, you know Rumple he is smart and conniving he already found a way to defeat Hades. Actually Zelena defeated him."

"I don't believe you, First how do you know that Hades is gone if you are my subconscious and we are stuck in here and second if Hades is defeated then Rumple would've taken me to my father and I would be awake, you are just trying to drive me crazy like you did the first time."

Belle turned around and started walking back to the bed.

"I'm not trying to make you crazy, I am trying to get you to see the truth, Rumple doesn't care about you."

"You're lying and you still haven't told me how you know Hades is defeated."

"Let's just say I heard Rumple talking about Zelena killing him while he was traveling with the box we are in."

"And how did you hear him?

"While you put us under a sleeping curse your body was asleep but your subconscious never sleeps I heard everything that Rumple said to you after you were put in the box and well I saw everything too."

"Box? What do you mean a box?"

"You are in Pandora's Box right now, Rumple put you in here."

"Why would he put me in a box I told him what to do after Hades was defeated."

"Oh you told him to take us to your father who would awaken you well I hate to be the one to tell you this but Papa failed, he wouldn't wake you."

"You're lying."

"Just Listen." The voice said.

Belle stood there and listened and heard Rumple's voice.

She heard him say how her father refused to wake and then his voice got distorted after that.

"Wait what did he say after that?" Belle said looking to the wall.

"What do you think he said, he left us in Pandora's Box because he had no more use for you."

"Oh my god will you stop with that Rumple loves me as does my Father."

"Then why are you still in here? Do you honestly believe you would be here if he loved you, if your father loved you, face it the only person that ever loved you is you is your mother and she's dead let's face it no one could ever love you, Rumpelstiltskin doesn't love anything but power.

"That's a lie I know he loves me and I love him I already told him that I know what man he is.

"And yet he still didn't love you enough to wake you with True Love's Kiss, so basically you have a loveless marriage and you are bringing a child into it."

"Shut up and go away."

"You know after he put you in the box he got a crystal an Olympian crystal and he tried to wake you but it failed and then he chose the crystal over you and your baby."

"No, he would never do that maybe over me yes because let's face it he has chosen power over me a few times but never over our child."

"Oh really."

Suddenly she saw an image she was in a room that she had never seen before she saw Rumple standing above her and the room started to shake.

"What's happening?" she asked the image on the wall.

"You say that Rumple would never pick magic over your child right? That he would never let something happen to your child over magic, right now you are in a box and the Olympian crystal which is the most powerful object in the world is on that dresser across the room from you, the room is shaking because a portal is about to open in your room and take something let's just watch."

Belle watched as she saw Rumple run to the crystal and grabbed it before she slipped back into darkness.

"Do you see even though you love both sides of him, he doesn't love you or that child, he wants his power now the question is why do you still believe in a man who doesn't believe in your love?"

"He does love."

"Oh will stop saying that you know it isn't true, you know it isn't and yet you are still in denial why? Because the only two men you have ever wanted to love you don't, when are you going to stand up for yourself and your child when are you going to finally be free of Rumpelstiltskin and live the life you have always wanted to, it's time you stopped living in that fairytale that is running through your head and get back to reality."

Belle looked down at her feet as she thought what to do next, she protectively put a hand on her stomach that was not yet showing before looking up "Will you help me."

"I thought you would never ask."

All of a sudden the image turned into a yellow gas and spread throughout the room before it went in Belle's mouth then the box shook causing Belle to stumble back into her bed and sit down she saw a white light coming out from the top of the box and stared at it before laying down.

"Things will be different from now on." She said

And everything went dark.
