In Neverland, Gold was sitting on a tree that was fallen on the ground. Then he heard something as he stood up and called. "Who's there? Show yourself." He turned around as then someone grabbed his childhood dull, he runs after him or her. "That doesn't belong to you, dearie." He finally to grab him or her as then he pulled the hood down and sees it was Caitlynn. "Caitlynn. I don't understand. How did you get here?"

"I thought, I would never see you like that, I very much like it." Caitlynn said to him, charming. "Also I thought that clothes was your past."

"Well, this is now my future." Gold told her even charming. Then he turned seriously. "Becoming this again The Dark One that's the only way I'll save my grandson."

"Then you must save him as The Dark One." Caitlynn told him. "You can really save him, my love, I know you can do it."

Then she leaned in to kiss him as then he pulled away. "You're not really here, are you?"

"No, of course not." Caitlynn replied to him. "I'm in the enchanted forest, with your son Baelfire."

"Are you okay?" Gold asked concerned. "Is my boy, okay?"

"We are fine, but we are trapped there." Caitlynn replied to him, seriously. "We can no longer come back to home."

Gold didn't believe her, he know that his son was here for some time and that he escaped from here, from Neverland. He grabbed her by the throat and he went angry at her. "How do I know these aren't just lies meant to lead me astray? How do I know Pan didn't conjure up a vision of you?"

"He didn't. You did." Caitlynn replied to him.

"What?" Gold aske shocked, releasing her.

"The question is why." Caitlynn smirked at him.

Then, not much later, they were walking around to jungle as then they arrived by a cliff. The stopped with walking as Gold asked to her. "So do you know why you brought me to the island? I thought you were gonna show me the answer."

"No, only you know that." Caitlynn replied to him.

"I've already told you." Gold told her.

"No, you haven't." Caitlynn started to argue.

"I have no idea." Gold told her depressed.

"Yes, you do."

"No."

"You are holding back."

"I'm not."

"You are."

"Caitlynn." Gold looked at her.

"What are you not saying?" Caitlynn asked to him.

"I'm a coward." Gold replied to her. "I'm just like my father."

"You feel better now, don't you?" Caitlynn looked at him. "You know why I'm here."

"You always accepted me." Gold replied to her.

"I still do. So why am I here?" Caitlynn asked to him. "What are you dealing with?"

"Pan offered me a deal." Gold sighed. "I let him keep Henry, and he allows me to live. The boy needn't be my undoing."

"And you're afraid you'll make the wrong choice." Caitlynn told him.

"I generally do." Gold comment.

"You abandoned your son Baelfire and regretted it your whole life. You don't need to do the same to Henry." Caitlynn told him as she gave him the dull. "Letting go of the past it's the first step."

"You know, this was the last thing my father gave me." Gold told her.

"And what happened to him?" She asked to him.

"He left me." He replied coldly.

"If you don't want to repeat the mistakes he made, you need to let go." Caitlynn told him as then she walked away from him.

Gold turned to the cliff and let go of his dull, looking at it as it fell down into the water.

In the enchanted forest, in the Dark Castle, Neal grabbed a chair and put by the closet as Mulan asked to him. "You found the crystal ball. What else are you looking for?"

"It showed me where Emma is. Now I have to get to her." Neal replied to her as then he stood on the chair and started to look for something.

"Uh, not sure you're gonna find a horse in there, mate." Robin comment to Neal.

"We need a portal." Caitlynn muttered.

"I don't need a horse." Neal stopped and he turned around to look at Robin. "I need a portal. A way to create a portal."

"We both need to same portal, so stop talking in the 'I' form." Caitlynn told Neal.

Neal sighed. "Yeah, you are right." He told to Caitlynn.

Then Robin spoke up. "Why don't you calm down and tell me what the problem is? Perhaps I can assist."

"Henry is trapped in Neverland with Peter Pan, who is, hands down, the nastiest person I've ever met." Neal replied to him.

"I saw Emma in that ball, not Henry." Mulan comment.

"That's, because he thought only of Emma." Caitlynn told her as Mulan nodded to her.

Then Neal started to explain. "Listen, I was in Neverland. Pan was looking for a boy a specific boy. I… I know he had some picture of him on a scroll. He called him the truest believer."

"And you believe that to be Henry?" Mulan asked to him.

"It has to be." Neal replied to her. "That's the only reason Emma would be in Neverland. Help me look. Uh, lots of things makes portals beans, magic mirrors, uh, ruby slippers, some kinds of ashes." Then Neal let something fall as then a couple of men stormed into the room.

"What the hell was that?" One of them asked to them all.

"Stand down, little John." Robin replied to him. "We're fine."

Then a little boy runs to him as then he was in his arms as then Neal asked to Robin. "Who's this?"

"Merry men come in all sizes. This is my son Roland." Robin replied to him as Caitlynn smiled at the little boy.

Neal also smiled at them as then he told them. "I know how to get to Neverland." He gets of the chair. "I know how to get to Henry."

Then Neal started to explain to Robin as the others walked out of the room while Neal was still talking, Caitlynn stood beside him. Then Robin called angry. "Are you out of your mind?! He's 4 years old."

"The shadow won't touch him. I promise." Neal reassured him.

"How do you know that?" Robin asked, disbelieving.

"Because I've dealt with it before. It's what took me to Neverland as a kid. All Roland has to do is summon it. That's it." Neal pointed at Caitlynn and himself. "We'll take it from there. We'll be the one going to Neverland, not him."

"Oh, so at best, my toddler is bait. At worst, something goes wrong, and a demonic shadow carries him through a portal to the nastiest person you ever met." Robin argued.

"Look, Robin, we have to get there." Caitlynn joined in the argument.

"I lost my wife a while back." Robin told them the reason, why he is against it. "Before that, we almost never even had Roland. She was so sick. Now she's gone. He's all I have. I can't lose him."

"So you know how I feel. I need my boy and Emma. They're all I have." Neal told him.

"Gold and Emma are the only things that I have, that and besides my nephew Henry." Caitlynn told to Robin, then she muttered. "And my parents." She sighed as she thought, both adopted and birth parents.

"So because I know what it is to value family, I should risk mine?" Robin scoffed.

"When she was sick your wife… How did she live so she could have your boy?" Neal asked to him.

"You know how." Robin replied to him.

"My father. He saved her and your son." Neal told him, realizing.

"Ah, I Once." Robin told to them. "He stands at the window. He calls out once. If that doesn't take, that's it. No second chance."

"You gotta understand. This is my second chance." Neal told him.

"Thank you." Caitlynn told to Robin.

Not a while later, They explained it to the others, they were not happy with it, but agreed it was Neal and Caitlynn's only change, then they explained it to Roland, what he needs to do. When they were done they were preparing to the shadow and were for Roland to stand. Then them self's, were to stand, Mulan told them to plan. "I'll be right here next to the window. Robin, behind the table. Neal, you need to be there, under the sill. Caitlynn you will be beside Neal. You'll come up right under the shadow."

"It's a good plan." Robin told to Mulan.

"I know." Mulan told him.

"Hood. Man, thanks again." Neal told to Robin.

"Thank me when your family's back together." Robin told him as he sees his face. "What?"

"I, you know, uh, I'm gonna save them. But back together? We'll see." Neal told him, sadly.

"I thought you said you loved them." Robin told him, confused.

"I do. We'll see if I can earn it back." Neal told him.

"Why wouldn't you?" Mulan asked to him.

"Cause I screwed up the first time." Neal replied to him. "Hopefully, I get another chance. When Emma told me that she loved me, I… I waited too long before I felt the same. I won't make that mistake again."

"I'm sure she will forgive you." Mulan reassured him.

"I hope so. I learned that lesson the hard way. When you love someone, you don't keep it in. You say it." Neal told her.

Then little John and Roland were coming into the room, little John had Roland in his arm. "You ready?" He asked to them.

"I suppose." Robin told him as he grabbed his son from little John, then little John walked out of the room as Robin talked to his son. "Come here, little man. Okay. Now daddy's gonna be right there." He pointed at the table. "Okay. Now it might be loud, but nothing's gonna hurt you. You understand? You remember what you have to say?"

"Yeah. I say…" Roland stared to say as then he was interrupted by the adults.

"No! No! No! Not yet! No! Wait, wait, wait." They all chorused.

"Not yet." Mulan told them. "Positions."

Then they all sat in their positions as then Robin told to his son. "Okay. All right. All right. Okay, Roland. Say it."

"I believe." Roland said to the window.

Nothing happened as Neal told to Robin. "Maybe if he says it again. Just once more."

"No. I'm sorry, mate. That's it." Robin told to Neal as then the window opened and the shadow comes for Roland, Robin picked his son up as he called to shadow. "No!" Then the shadow grabbed the sleeve from Roland pajamas.

"Hey! I got it!" Mulan told them as she swing with her sword and cut the sleeve off, the shadow looked at then as then it flew off, quickly Mulan shouted at Neal and Caitlynn. "Neal, Caitlynn, go!" they both run out the window and grab either of the shadow's feet. Then they flew with the shadow to Neverland as Robin and Mulan watched them fly away from there.

Later, the shadow let them fall on the island in Neverland. They both landed safely on the ground as then Felix was waiting for them. "Welcome home Baelfire. Pan will be so happy to see you." Felix told him as then he looked at Caitlynn. "And you too, true love of Rumpelstiltskin." She glared at him as Neal looked annoyed at him, he had to see him first.
