Chapter 3
Henry and Caitlyn were walking down the streets of Storybrooke towards Gold's shop. When they reach the shop they enter and the bell rings when the door is pushed open.
"Gold!" Henry calls out as Caitlyn looks around the shop. She looks across the counters but sees nothing of interest. She then walks over to Henry. Gold then walks in from the back and Henry walks towards him.
"Hello, Gold. I need to talk to you." Henry says to him and rests his hands on the counter.
"Of course Henry. Who's this?" Gold says and he looks over to Caitlyn.
"Caitlyn Jones-Swan" Henry states and gestures towards her he then notices a flash of recognition in Gold's eyes.
"But to clarify, you can call me Cate." Caitlyn adds in.
"Ahh. Henry so you remember."
"So do you. Now we want answers."
"So" Gold turns towards Caitlyn. "You believe."
"Well yeah. Could you answer the questions please?"
"Oh you do take after your parents." Gold says to her and Caitlyn is speechless "but I will not answer your questions, since you haven't broken the curse."
"Excuse me"
That's it?" Caitlyn adds.
"Yes"
"Come Henry. Let's go" Her and Henry walk out the door and start to walk down the street.
"Now, what are we going to do?" Caitlyn asks.
"I don't know. Look for evidence I guess." As soon as Henry spoke the ground started shaking. Henry and Caitlyn try to balance themselves and them the shaking stops. Henry looks up from the ground and smiles.
"What the hell was that? And what are you smiling about?"
"I know where to find evidence." He then runs off and Caitlyn runs after him shouting his name.
Henry runs towards the open ground and Caitlyn follows him. He stops in front of a tunnel and kneels down. Caitlyn stands beside him.
"Henry" Caitlyn hisses "What are we doing here? What is this place?"
"This is the mines, and we are going to look for evidence."
"Henry, are you sure this is good idea. What about that ground shaking thing?"
"Oh it's just a cart going past it hit something, no big deal. Henry walks into the mines "So are you coming or not"
"Okay" She answers and walks in after him.
Emma is at the sheriff station sorting out paperwork and Regina is in the doorway.
"Miss Swan." Regina says and walks in.
"Madam Mayor."
"I would like to ask you a favour."
"What is it?"
"I would like you to find information about this Caitlyn. She seems like she's up to something."
"To be honest" Emma says with a sigh. "I don't think she is. She just seems like a normal girl passing by. And I know she would never hurt Henry"
"I still don't trust her." Regina says as she sits down. "She could-"
Regina is interrupted by Killian rushing through the doorway.
"Swan." He says quickly.
"What?"
"It's Henry I saw him going into the mines with Caitlyn. You have to come now."
"Yes I will" she gets out of the chair and rushes out with Killian. Regina instantly follows.
Henry and Caitlyn are walking through the mines and Caitlyn walks into something.
"Oww" She says as she rubs her head "It's really dark down here."
"Good thing I have a torch." He outs down his bag and finds the torch "Aha" He turns it on.
"You didn't care to mention that before." He responds by grinning at her.
"Come lets go"
"Someday this is all going to backfire." She mutters and follows him through the tunnels. "So, what are we exactly looking for?"
"Evidence"
"That's a helpful answer" she mutters under her breath and looks ups but sees something. "What's that?"
"What's what?" she lifts up her hand and points up and Henry follows her direction. "Evidence"
Killian, Emma and Regina run towards the mines and stop before the entrance.
"He's down here." Says Emma "I'm going after him." She starts to go in but Killian grabs her arm.
"If you're going I'm coming with you."
"Are you serious?"
"Excuse me" Regina adds "What should I do he is my son."
"Go and get help." He turns to Emma "Lets go." They enter the mines while Regina goes to get help.
"You can barely see down here." She says.
"Here" He passes her a torch and she turns it on.
"Thanks."
"So why would Henry want to come down here."
"I have no clue. Can we just get on with it?" She says.
"Of course." They continue to walk in silence.
Henry passes the torch to Caitlyn holds on to one of the wooden bars and steps on the wall and climbs up slightly. Caitlyn watches while pointing the torch at him
"Henry you could fall and injure yourself."
"I'll be fine."
"Okay. What are those sparkly rock things?"
"Diamonds But not just any diamonds, these are used to make fairy dust."
"So what? We show these to Emma and she believes."
"No, but it may help" He reaches up and takes a big diamond and gets back down. "Here" He passes the diamond to Caitlyn as he takes back the torch.
"We should get out of here." Caitlyn mutters.
"Yeah."
Emma and Killian are walking through the tunnels. Emma trips but Killian catches her before she could fall. She quickly shrugs him off.
"I'm fine" She says with anger in her voice.
"Well, to me it seems not."
"I'm fine Jones."
"Okay" Killian turns towards Emma. "Why do you hate me so much?"
"Why do you hate me so much?"
"I don't. Now answer my question"
Emma is taken back by his answer and stutters.
"I..I….Urh…well." She moves backwards into the mine wall. "Well you're…I don't know."
"So you have no reason to hate me." He says as he moves closer to her.
"No" She breathes out and realises how close they are and quickly glances at his lips. She leans towards him and closes her eyes and Killian does the same.
"Henry. Is this the right way, Oh."
She quickly shoves him away and they both turn to see Caitlyn and Henry staring at them.
"Hi" Cate mutters with a shy tone. "So should we all get out of here now."
The group exit the cave and when the do a group of people are stood outside the entrance. When they exit the cave Tink runs over to them and hugs Killian tightly.
"Oh Killian are you alright." Tink asks with panic "Are you hurt."
"No, I'm not hurt. I'm fine." He glances over to Emma but she turns away quickly.
"Okay"
"HENRY!" The group look over to see Regina charging towards them. She reaches them and looks towards Henry "What were you doing going down the mines. I assume this has something to do with you." She says as she looks over to Caitlyn.
"Well urh.. You see urm"
"No, it wasn't her it was me. It was my idea." Henry interrupts.
"Henry, Remember what happened last time."
"Last time?" Cate asks, confused.
"Come on were going." Henry follows Regina as storms off.
"I..Urh guess I should go?" Caitlyn says and walks off but Emma goes after her.
"Hey. Where are you going?" Emma asks when she catches up to her.
"Well I was going to go to yours get my stuff then go to granny's and stay there."
"No you don't have to you can still stay with me as o know this wasn't your fault." Emma puts a hand on Caitlyn's shoulder and starts to walk with her back into Storybrooke.
"Thanks" She says as she looks at the diamond in her hand and realises something. "Storybrooke still has magic." She whispers under her breath.
"What?"
"Nothing" Caitlyn says and they continue walking towards Emma apartment.
