*Head pokes around corner*…uhh…..*SPLAT*
HEY! Don't throw things! Ok ok I know I know I'M SORRY!

But guys…GUYS! Omg it's what almost 10 months later…I'm STILL getting "so and so is following this story" emails! Omg you guys have NO idea what that MEANS to me! Thank you one and all for favoriting, following, and commenting on this and sticking with me even though I'm a lazy slob! Heheh really I'm not that bad….school took over and the story line of the show progressed (in a different way than even the writers originally had in mind…they had this neat idea and decided to run with it….my fellow authors will understand ;) ) and I just kinda lost the muse…well…not really…the plot bunny still pops its cute little head up and runs 'round my brain now and then….I just have trouble writing things down!

But you guys have stuck with it so far so let's see if I can't get this done by the time the next season starts!

This is WAAAAAAY….WWAAAAAAAAAAAAAY AU now but I still like my original ideas so I'm going to run with them!

Same disclaimers that were in the first chapter! Hmm…wait I guess those have changed some…I know what was in the box…Neal IS Bae (woot!) though still Rumple and Belle T.T lol

Happy 4th to all! Lol have an awesome day even if you're not in the states ;)

Chapter 2: Watching….

He'd smelled her…close…a human again in His territory. How strange…they never wandered this far…but this female…she smelled…odd.

He missed His companion.

He'd never come back to the forest after that day long ago…before the new forest took over. He would howl for him…but never find him….twice….He'd heard him…call to Him….."Stop her!"….so He had…then again…."Where are you?!" so He'd gone to him…but he had not followed….but this female….she reminded Him of His companion….it was her smell….she smelled of Wolf.

Finally she crossed His path and He stopped and followed her…against the wind so she couldn't detect Him…was such a thing even possible for a human? He did it out of habit even so.

Finally the female stopped and sat….she gazed at something in her hand….humans….they were so easily distracted….but instead of showing himself he decided to wait….and watch.

The wind changed…..and the female stiffened…..so…..she could smell Him….

Muhahaha!

*BAM* OWWW dangit! You guys *splat* auuug just wait! *dodges another fruit* I already have the next chapter written! *barrage of fruit comes to a halt*…and the NEXT one o-o

Lol I know this is a SUUUPER short chapter but I wanted you all to get His perspective ^-^ the next 2 chapters are written and I will have it up tomorrow and then the next day…haha this will give me time to pin down Mr. Plot Bunny and force him to write some more of it for y'all ;)

Loves loves loves LOVES to you all and please if you can find it in your hearts to review I would be ever so grateful! *bows*

(O and please for those who have not had a chance to see the ending (omg I know right go WATCH it!) please leave any spoily comments in my PM box because yes I'd love to talk about the ending if you need someone to gush to ;) lol I only have a few friends who watch the show so I know how frustrating it can be to bottle that all up! O and speaking of bottles have you all seen the preview for Once Upon A Time in Wonderland!? If you haven't please take 4 minutes and go watch it! It's on abc . com (I think) and facebook and probably youtube! It's amazing to say the least!)
