Chapter 2: The Savior Returns
Location: Boston, Massachusetts, Time: October 23, 2011, 7:00 P.M.
Saber's POV
Henry, and I arrived in Boston the night before, and began searching for the Savior. I slowly drove my Mustang down the street.
"So...how do you know she's here in Boston?"
"I looked it up."
"Those things cost money, and...Henry...did you steal Snow's credit card?"
"Maybe..."
"Henry! You know stealing is wrong! You should have just came to me. I could have helped."
"But I thought you couldn't leave Storybrooke?"
"I have, and so has Red. She can leave without a problem."
I slowly pulled over to the side of the road.
"Why are we stopping?"
"I have a feeling she's here."
Sure enough, a few minutes later a man came running out of a restaurant that we were parked across from followed by a tall blond woman in a pink formal dress. The man came running to the car in front of us, and scrambled in. He started the car, but didn't move.
"He's got a parking boot on. Not going anywhere with that."
The man opened his door just as the blonde woman came up to him, and I listened into the conversation.
"Look you don't have to do this, okay? I can pay you. I got money."
"No, you don't, and if you did, you should give it to your wife to take care of your family."
"What the hell do you know about family, huh?"
She grabbed him, and slammed his head into the steering wheel, knocking him out.
"Ooooooh, that's got to hurt."
Location: Boston, Massachusetts, Apartment Complex, Time: October 23, 2011, 8:00 P.M.
Saber's POV
We followed the woman to an apartment complex, and went to the door of her apartment.
"You ready, Henry?"
Henry nodded, and rang the doorbell. The door opened, and the blond woman stepped out.
"Uh, can I help you?"
Henry looked up.
"Are you Emma Swan?"
"Yeah. Who are you two?"
"I'm Saber Glazebrook."
Henry smiled.
"My name's Henry. I'm your son."
Henry dived underneath her arm, and headed into the apartment. Emma chased after him, and I followed.
"Whoa. Hey, kid. Kid! I don't have a son. Where are your parents?"
"Ten years ago, did you give up a baby for adoption? That was me."
Emma stood there, shocked.
"Give me a minute."
She turned and headed into the restroom. Henry called out to her.
"Hey, you have any juice? Never mind. Found some."
Henry pulled out a container of juice from the fridge.
"I swear to Merlin..you need to learn some manners, Henry."
Emma stepped out of the bathroom, and looked at us. Henry smiled.
"You know we should probably get going."
"Going where?"
"I want you to come home with me."
"Okay, kid. I'm calling the cops."
"Then, I'll tell them you kidnapped me."
"And they'll believe you, because I'm your birth mother."
"Yep."
I shook my head.
"Henry... that plan would fall apart at the seams. I brought you here."
"Oh..."
"Kid. You're good, but here's the thing. There's not a lot I'm great at in life, but I have one skill. Let's call it a superpower. I can tell when anyone is lying, and you, kid, are."
Emma started to dial, and I was about to pull my wand out, but Henry stopped me.
"Wait. Please don't call the cops. Please. Come home with me."
"Where's home?"
I turned to Emma.
"Storybrooke, Maine."
"Storybrooke? Seriously?"
Henry nodded.
"Alrighty then. Let's get you back to Storybrooke."
Emma walked away to her bedroom to get changed. I turned to Henry.
"Well, looks like Phase One of Operation: Savior is done. On to Phase Two."
"Yep."
Emma stepped out, in skinny jeans, and a red jacket.
"Are we going?"
I nodded.
"Yeah."
I grabbed my jacket, and we headed out. When we got to the parking garage, I looked around.
"So, where's your car, Emma?"
"Over there."
I looked over, and saw a crappy, beat up, yellow Volkswagen Bug.
"Really? That clunker? Trust me, my ride is better."
I hit the start button on my key chain, and my Mustang's powerful engine echoed through the garage.
"What was that?"
"You'll see."
I headed off, and grabbed the Mustang, and drove it over to them.
"Not bad, but this Bug has been with me for the past 10 years. I'm driving it."
"Suit yourself. Henry..I'll see you back in Storybrooke. Red's probably wondering where the hell I am."
I shifted the Mustang into gear, and sped off.
Location: Storybrooke, Maine, Saber's and Red's House, Time: October 23, 2011, 11:00 P.M.
Saber's POV
I arrived home, and Red was in the living room waiting.
"Where have you been?"
"I brought the Savior home. Henry's mother is the Savior."
"His real mother?"
"Yes."
"Time should start moving soon, right?"
"It should."
Location: Storybrooke, Maine, Storybrooke Elementary, Time: October 24, 2011, 12:00 P.M.
Saber's POV
The clock still hadn't moved. But I wasn't going to lose hope. I was at the elementary school to visit Anita, and Henry's teacher, Mary Margaret Blanchard, A.K.A. Snow White to return her credit card. I walked in the room, and saw Mary sending the kids off to recess.
"Ms. Blanchard?"
"Saber, how are you?"
"I'm doing alright. I wanted to return this to you. Henry took it from you."
I handed her the card, and she looked at me strangely.
"Why?"
"I'll tell you why."
I turned around, and saw Mayor Mills, A.K.A., The Evil Queen. I faked a smile, and said good morning. She ignored me, and looked at Mary.
"He took it to find her."
Regina gestured to Emma. Mother, and Daughter were in the same room together. It was a start. Mary looked strangely at Emma.
"I'm sorry. Who are you?"
"I'm his.. I'm his."
Regina finished her sentence.
"The woman who gave him up for adoption."
"Saber just gave the card back to me."
"Do explain, Mr. Glazebrook. How exactly did you come to find the card on Henry?"
"Simple, Mayor. I left the town to go with Henry."
Regina stiffened slightly. I noticed but Emma, and Mary didn't.
"This is a waste of time. Have a nice trip back to Boston."
Regina walked away, knocking over some books. Emma went to help pick them up, and I helped as well.
"I got to get to work. See you later."
"Bye, Saber."
"It was nice seeing you today, Ms. Blanchard. Bye, Emma."
Emma nodded, and I headed out to go to work.
Location: Storybrooke, Maine, Saber's and Red's House, Time: October 24, 2011, 8:15 P.M.
Saber's POV
I sat on the roof of the house, staring out towards the clock tower. The minute hand still hadn't moved. Red came out through the window, and climbed up.
"It still hasn't moved?"
"No...I thought bringing her home would fix things."
"Come on. Let's head inside before we catch a cold."
I nodded, and stood up, but just before we turned around, a loud click echoed from the tower. The minute hand moved.
"It moved... It moved! Time's moving forward again! Red, we did it!"
I hugged Red as tightly as I could. Red smiled.
"This is a cause for celebration."
I smiled.
"I'll get the wine."
We headed into the house, happy that the curse was starting to weaken.
