Chapter Three:
…...Enchanted Forrest…
Reign woke up in slight pain feeling like she'd been hit with a mack truck. Opening her eyes she was greeted with a sword to her throat while Mary Margaret and Emma were tied up. " Parley?" Mulan gave her a look before pulling her to her feet and tying her up as well. " Parley really Reign." Reign turned to Emma and shrugged. " Worth a shot. " She groaned as Mulan kicked her horse into gear pulling them behind her as they headed for the sanctuary. I hope Kei doesn't mind if I change a few things here." Hey Mulan right? I know a friend of yours. " Mulan was obviously ignoring her as was Aurora the snobby princess. " I believe her name is Belle. " That seemed to catch Mulan's attention. " You know of Belle? " Reign nodded. " Brown curly hair, eyes blue as the sky, nose always in a book." Mulan smiled and nodded. " Yes certainly sounds like Belle. But why should I believe you are a friend of hers. " Reign shrugged. " I didn't say I was a friend I just said I knew her. Don't worry I didn't harm her I just thought you'd like to know she was ok. " Mulan gave her a strange look before nodding. " Thank You I appreciate it. " Aurora was really not looking happy with this exchange. " Why are you even talking to them they killed Phillip. " Reign snorted. " We didn't kill your boyfriend that was the wraith and before you even start we didn't summon it or send it here that was someone else. " Aurora gave her a dirty look. " It still followed you here so your still responsible. " Reign licked her lips trying to keep her temper. " Wow spoken like a true villain blaming everyone for something that couldn't be helped. I doubt your precious Phillip would approve. Especially after all that Belle did to help him. " Aurora just kicked her horse faster as Mulan gave a tug on her rope to make her move faster.
….…In Storybrooke Snow's Apartment….
Keira was so angry with Rumple not for how he yelled at himself but for how he saw himself thanks to what everyone had always told him. She wasn't blind to every thing he did she knew he was a villain because most of the choices he made were the wrong choices. Yet the reason behind them to her was still understandable. Every woman that was suppose to love him always wanted something from him. Milah wanted Rumple to stay behind for her not a child, Cora wanted his power not him, Zelena wanted his favor over Regina, and Belle she just wanted to save him and be the hero. It took a lot of self control for her to just walk away instead of getting into a fight with him but that's what he had wanted and she was not going to put up with it. That's how she found herself at the Charming's with David as he was trying to think of a way to get to Snow and Emma. " So you are absolutely sure this is going to work? " Keira looked at David knowing what was going to happen but knew this was one thing she couldn't change. " Trust me David Snow and Emma will come home. I'm just worried about whether or not my sister will be with them seeing as the guy she's gaga for is in the Enchanted Forrest. " Their talk was interrupted by Henry's screams. David and her ran to the boy waking him up " Shhhhhhh it's ok Henry it was just a bad dream. " Henry shocked them both by throwing himself into Keira's arms. " It was horrible I was in a room and it was on fire. " Keira started to rub Henry's back as David started to tell him about Snow's nightmares lighting a candle telling him to concentrate on it. As much as she wanted to avoid Rumple right now she couldn't stand to see Henry suffer.
….…Enchanted Forrest…
Reign almost sighed in relief when they reached the safe haven that she really wasn't paying attention when Snow tried to run dragging her and Emma with her before Mulan knocked her out. " Hey there was no need for that." Reign got right up in the warrior's face. " She tried to run and you both must pay for your crimes." That's it Reign had, had it with a yell she reared back then smashed her head into Mulan's knocking the warrior back. " WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR BOY TOY! It was Rumpelstiltskin who summoned the damn Wraith, It was the Evil Queen who used the Mad Hatter's hat to send it here. We just got caught in the crossfire and it was your precious Phillip who was dumb enough to get marked by the thing. All you have to do is use the Medallion to get him back. " Aurora ran up to help Mulan to her feet as she stared at Reign. " What do you mean get him back is that possible? " Reign glared at her. " Even the wraith's have a world they call home it's known as the underworld and you can travel there just like anywhere else. Gee for a fellow red head I thought you'd be smarter. " Mulan finally on her feet tugged Reign's ropes to send her to her knees. " Why should we believe you how do we know your not telling lies? " Reign looked up with a smirk. " Don't know guess your just gonna have to trust me. " Mulan gave a false laugh as she hoisted Snow's unconscious form to her horse. " Yes well forgive me if I don't " with that she pulled her and Emma before depositing them into the pit as one burly man dropped Snow to the ground. " Careful with her." Emma growled before crouching next to her mother. " Can I help? " Reign just groaned as Cora emerged from the shadows. Thank God Kei isn't here.
…...Storybrooke Gold's Shop…..
Rumple watched as Keira was pacing outside his shop always stopping just at the door before stomping her foot to go back to her paces. To say he was shocked to see her so soon after their argument was an understatement. Although watching her having her little tantrum was quite adorable in a way as her wild curls seemed to fly with each over the top fail. Or how rosy her cheeks had gotten in her frustrated flush and he couldn't help but wonder which color would be more dominate in her fury the blue or the green of her eyes. Taking his cane he walked to the front of his shop before opening the door and staring at the angry woman. " As much as I enjoy your little dance in front of my shop Dearie is there a reason for the performance? " Keira gave him a look that he had to admit would of scared him even back in the Enchanted Forrest before she pushed passed him causing him to loose his balance a moment. " Henry is suffering the effects of the Sleeping Curse. He's going to one of the levels of Purgatory in his sleep." Rumple looked at her. " I've heard that place called many things but never that. " Keira rolling her eyes at him irritated the imp. She was acting like he was an irritating child or worse Regina or one of the Charmings. " It's a theory of mine. That in the sleeping curse since your neither dead or alive the only place you would go would be like a limbo and what is limbo but purgatory. " Rumple was shocked cause it made sense could it be this tiny little munchin could of figured out something that no one else had. See even more proof that she is better for us than that Belle. Yes Belle is smart with all that reading but is she as smart as our Keira.Rumple growled in frustration himself. Now the darkness was claiming the annoying minx.
….…Enchanted Forrest the pit…..
Reign was staring at Cora as she was trying to wake Snow. It was weird seeing this woman up close besides Milah this is the woman her sister hated most. She didn't hate Belle she just thought Belle and Rumple where just confusing basic love for True Love all because Regina and the almost true love's kiss had convince them they were meant for each other. This woman also knew where Hook was so as much as she wanted to knock her out for her sister she couldn't she had to wait for her to lead Hook to them. " So Cora isn't it? How did you end up here?" Cora turned to look at her she was sure she had not given this girl her name. " Same as you they captured me. They see me as dangerous an enemy." Before they could speak anymore Snow woke up and seeing Cora pulled Emma behind her. " Cora. " Emma had a confused look on her face as Snow was trying to keep her from the woman who was helping her. " Emma you can't trust her she's Regina's mother. " Cora looked at her with a false look of hurt. " Snow dear have I ever done anything to cause you to mistrust me? You know me all I ever wanted was Regina's happiness remember? Please let me help you. " Emma naive that she was started mentioning how they we're trying to get back to her son Henry which her and Regina shared. " Emma listen to your mother shut up! Cora is the Queen of Hearts she will either rip your heart out and crush it or have your head chopped off as she preferred in Wonderland where Regina banished her for a reason." Emma shut up immediately as Cora gave Reign a dirty look. " For someone who I've never met before you seem to know an awful lot about me? Yet I must say you look firmilar? It's the eyes I think." Reign snorted. " Funny your daughter said the same thing. "
Once again their conversation was interrupted by a rope ladder coming down into the pit. " Our leader would like a talk with you." One by one Snow, Emma and Reign climbed the rope. " So should we try to run or what? " Snow was obviously trying to think about what they should do. " Yes we should, look Snow their leader is someone you know but not who you think they are. So please don't trust them I would tell you why but this is something I can't change." Snow nodded and turned to see Cora disguised as Lancelot emerge from one of the huts. Snow smiled as she went to hug him but she made sure to keep what Reign said in mind after all she had no reason to doubt the girl so far. They all sat down to the meager feast prepared. Reign dug in not caring what the food was made of she was hungry and a lot less picky than her twin she noticed Aurora was not to happy with how friendly the fake Lancelot was with them why Mulan was quickly warming up well as warm as she could get. She had been so closely watching Aurora that she didn't realize she had missed the conversation between Snow and Lance-fake as they followed Mulan to the weapons their camp offered. Looking into the trunk she picked a nice sword that had a unicorn inspired design as well as grabbing a dragon inspired bow and arrows as a present for her sister when they returned. As much as she loved Hook and wanted to stay here with him she knew her sister needed her besides he would be in Storybrooke soon enough. " Why two set of weapons? " Reign looked up at Mulan and smiled. " My twin would kill me if I didn't bring her back something." Mulan laughed. " You are lucky I always wanted a sibling. So much so that when my father gifted me with a dog I named him Little Brother." Reign smiled and clapped a hand on Mulan's shoulder she knew an olive branch when she saw one.
As they where leaving the camp Reign was trying to explain to Mulan what a gun was after Emma had demanded it back. " So it is not magic? " Reign shook her head. " Nope it's more like a deadly firework that shoots metal into someone." Mulan nodded finally understanding. It was getting dark they would need to make camp soon. When Reign turned to say something to Snow she noticed Aurora sneaking up on Emma before Snow tackled her to the ground. Running up with Mulan she managed to stop Mulan from harming Snow " Chill dude your girl started it. Listen Sleeping Beauty Jr. What I said before is true you can save your Phillip in fact looky here. " Reaching into her back pocket she showed her the medallion for the wraith. " How did you get that? " Reign looked up at Snow and wiggled her eyebrows. " Picked Gold's pocket when he was gobsmacked by me telling him my sister had the hots for him. With this you can find a way to travel to the underworld to rescue Phillip. " When Aurora reached to grab it she pulled her hand back. " now now now in the words of my sister's man all magic comes with a price. I'll give this to you if you and Mulan swear to help us get home." Aurora looked at Mulan who nodded. " Alright I swear. Now give it to me. " Reign shook her head and put the medallion back in her pocket. " Not yet no offense but you just proved by attacking Mary Margaret your not really trustworthy so I'll wait til right before we leave. Now Mary Margaret we camping here or heading straight on for your place?" Snow pointed to where they could see her castle just beyond the trees. " Alright let's go."
….…..Storybrooke Gold's shop….
Keira was watching Rumple as he was staring at her like he either wanted to smack her or kiss her. God I hope it's kiss me. " As much as I'm sure your right the boy should be fine if he's not then bring him to me and I will gladly help him." Keira growled at him which he found adorable. " You should want to help him now Rumple not before he gets hurt." Rumple huffed at her. " Why's that Dearie in case you forgot I'm a villain remember I never do anything with out something in it for me." Keira actually kicked his spinning wheel which made him want to give a right smack on her arse. " Because he's your gran..." She stopped herself but she knew the damage was done. " If you value your life dearie you will finish what you were saying." Rumple came around the counter with out his cane he was finding as the magic was strengthening in Storybrooke he was needing it a little less. " Henry unknowly to him and Emma I might add before you go off half cocked trying to force information out of her she doesn't have. Is your grandson he met Emma when she was 18 and they fell in love. But then he met August who knew Emma needed to brake the curse so he convinced your son to let Emma go at least until the curse was broken. He is here Rumple but he's not a boy anymore he's all grown up and he doesn't know about Henry and Emma doesn't know where he is." Rumple couldn't believe it he was a grandfather. Well the boy does have your eyes Spinner.Rumple growled at the darkness's inner quip. " Alright I get you refuse to tell me where my son is but you are going to sit down and tell me everything you know about my son. Do you understand?"
Keira nodded and followed Rumple into the back room of his shop as she sat down across from him at his desk. " Well um when Neal came here the first time it wasn't here he ended up it was in the I think Victorian era or Regency in London England. There he was taken in by a family known as the Darlings." Rumple stomped his cane. " No dearie I find that impossible if he's here now and was able to father Henry unless Emma is into necrophilia." Keira clicked her tongue. " I was about to explain that if you didn't interrupt now hold your tongue and I'll explain." Yes we love it when she's feisty.Rumple ignored his inner voice as he nodded at her to continue. " As I was saying he was taken in by the Darlings but what Neal didn't know was the Darling children were being tricked and fooled by an old enemy of yours Peter Pan's shadow. To try and save them knowing that Pan wasn't a good person Neal allowed him to take him instead of the Darling children and he spent many years hiding from your father on Neverland managing to avoid capture thanks to another old enemy of yours Captain Hook the codfish." Rumple stood and used his cane to smash a few things. " You mean to tell me in all the time I was working on the curse to bring me here I could of just gone to Neverland to find my son?" Keira nodded. " I'm so sorry Rumple but he is here I don't know how he finally escaped Neverland but he is here and I swear Pan never touched him and he has no idea he's your father. But Hook did tell him about Milah and how she died." Rumple sat down heavy in his chair. " Is there anything else I should know?" Keira nodded. " Yes but it's something I can't tell you like where he is." Rumple snorted and looked at her. " I believe I told you to tell me everything else Dearie. " Keira looked at him with a smirk that rivaled his. " You aren't the boss of me Rumple so if you don't like it do your worse." She's not afraid of us good still she needs to learn her place.For once Rumple agreed with the voice and he would have fun showing her where her place was and he had to agree she was a lot more fun than Belle.
