CHAPTER 6 – WILD WEST
Henry didn't know why he had to come to this funeral, he even knew the woman who died. Of course, when he had approached the coffin and takes a glimpse of Emma´s face, he felt a strange tug on his heart, but not knowing what it means, he just let be and return to his video game. Since the previous night, Neal was a mess, the only thing, Henry did, was standing beside his old man, trying to console him.
After the services, everyone had get together at the dinner, in order to give Snow, Neal and Charming they support and distract themselves.
Despite of the sadness, every citizen of storybrook were worried about Zelena´s next step, even more so now, that said savior was dead.
Suddenly, while Regina and Tinker Bell, was fussing over Robin´s lion tattoo, the front door bust open and Zelena step inside of the restaurant, just a few seconds after Hook had convinced Neal to let him take Henry for a walk.
''my condolences…'' Zelena suddenly step in, startling everyone ''I'm so sorry missed the funeral, but I could never pass up a wake. Did I miss the speeches or should I make one?'' mocked the witch. ''after all, I'm responsible for this…''
''you son of a bitch… I will…'' Neal tries to attack Zelena, but Tinker Bell stop him
''no, Bae, too many people will get hurt.''
''listen to the fairy, she´s right. Anyone who tries to interfere in my plan, will have to deal with the Dark One.''
''get out of here, Zelena, after everything you have done, you have no rights to be here.'' Charming growled furious jumping in front of Snow
''don't worry, darling, I came not to do any more harm to your family ... at least not today.''
''then way are you here?'' Regina asked impolite
''now that my covers blow, I finally can pay a visit to my little sister.'' Explains the witch
''what´d you talking about?'' Regina asked confused ''I'm an only child.''
''oh my! Cora lied to you, Regina, I'm your sister. Half sister, better saying.''
''I don't believe you.'' Regina was furious
''you should believe in me, sister. You know in this sad day, you should dig into our past, Regina. You need to learn the truth and you must believe in it.'' Zelena breaths thirsty ''and then, meet at main street tonight…say sundown?''
''for what?''
''I will destroy you. Of course, I want everyone to be there and watch the show.'' Whit this then, Zelena walk away
That day was a stormy one for all citizens of Storybrook. While Hook, tried to distract Henry by inventing stories about his mother. In the Dinner, Regina, Tinker Bell and Robin, tries to figure out, if Regina had done something in the past for Zelena or not and why Regina didn't knew about her existence.
Snow white has been put to bed. The later events had taken a lot from her and under Dr. Whale´s orders, she go rest, for the baby´s sake.
Meanwhile, Neal, David and Belle, were trying to put some order on Storybrook, when Belle come up with an idea
''and what if I tried to talk to Rumpel?'' she asked
''What?'' Neal was shocked and worry. ''Zelena have his dagger, she can force him to hurt you.''
''don't worry, Neal, I will take Rumpel´s dagger and came back safe.'' Belle smile at him
And so they returned to the Farmhouse. While David and Neal, checked if the witch wasn't there, Belle ran toward the basement, only to find Rumpelstiltiskin there, working on his spinner
''no, Belle, leave, you have no idea, what that witch will make me do to you, if she catch us.''
''I'm not afraid, Rumpel. Bae is outside too, waiting for us.''
''Belle, as long as she have my dagger, I cannot leave.'' Cried the old man
''Please, Rumpel, just try.'' making tremendous courage, Belle entered the cage where her beloved was trapped and with some difficulty, managed to take him out of there. ''you just have to believe in us.''
''I do.'' Mr. Gold was able to smile. Suddenly, he felt something strange, crawling up his spine, like his free-will had disappear. ''run.'' he whipped ''just run.''
''what?'' Belle asked confused, when suddenly they hear a laugh from somewhere
''don't mind me.'' It was Zelena, who was hiding all the time, watching the scene ''carry on. I was just enjoying the show''
Scared and don't knowing what to do, Belle´s only choice was ran back to the surface and tell Neal and David what had happened
''Belle, are you alright?'' Neal ran to her and wrap her in his arms
''Zelena was toying with us. It was a trick'' Cried the former librarian, when suddenly, Rumpel appear on the basement door
''Zelena sends a messege….she will fight Regina, without interference.'' He yelled ''next time you try to stop her, I kill all of you'' he said, with his voice, full of regret.
Night came quickly in Storybrooke and the defendant schedule, Zelena arrived for battle, along with Mr. Gold
''where´s my sister? She isn't arrive?'' the witch look round, waiting for her sister ''isn't not good, if my sister not arrive in six minutes, I will let the Dark One off his leash''
''papa, please, you don't have to do this.'' Neal step in front of his father
''unfortunately have.'' With a movement of the Dagger, Gold involuntary shove his son away ''I'm sorry, son.'' Whispered the old wizard
''who want to be the next?'' threats the witch
''me.'' Suddenly, a woman appear from the end of the street, it was Regina, who after some time talking with Robin, decided to bring a surprise to the fight. ''did anyone tell you? Black is my color''
''but looks so much better on me.'' Elena mocks Regina ''I was beginning to think, you weren't going to show up.''
''I couldn't let my sister off that easily'' Regina smiled at her
''so, just lets finish with this. But you have to know, Rumpelstiltiskin will not save you this time.
Quick was one fight and thankfully no one was hurt. Only a few cars were crushed and some semaphores were damaged.
In her ignorance, Zelena thought she was earning, however, upon reach out to rip Regina´s heart, she had a surprise and the Organ wasn't there.
''where is it?'' Zelena yelled furious
''our mother taught one thing; never bring your heart to a witch fight.'' Regina smiled ''something you´d know, if she hadn't abandoned you'' Regina spit and push Zelena away
''you haven't won Regina, I will get your heart…I will get everything you EVER HAD'' and with that, she pick up her broom and fly away
''Regina!'' Neal exclaimed, running toward Regina and helping her on her feet ''re you okay?''
''i´m fine Mr. Cassidy, don't worry.''
''my father disappear, we thought it have meant…''
''she defeated me? Hardly.''
''so you won?'' asked Thinker Bell, who had accompanied Neal to the clock tower
''well…don't act so surprised, turns out Zelena wants my heart, it was a good thing I wasn't stupid enough to bring it with me.''
''your heart? Why she wanted your heart?'' Neal asked curious
''she got David´s courage and she wants my heart. Those are ingredients, Mr. Cassidy.''
''ingredients for what?''
''I don't know'' Regina wandered totally clueless
Back at the inn, a couple of hours after the fight, Hook and Henry were returning from the docks, when they saw Neal walking alone from the opposite side.
''hey, I was looking for you guys.'' Neal lied ''how´s your day, Buddy?''
''it was awesome, you should have come with us, dad.'' Henry said excited
''great, go inside, brush your teeth and you can tell me everything before bedtime.'' Neal suggests and after make sure Henry was out of sight, he turns his attention to Hook ''thank you for watching him today, Hook.''
''he ask some questions about Swan'' Hook paused ''he ask how she was emotionally, if she likes him and if her murder was on the news.'' Explains the former pirate
''I figured. Soon he will recover his memory and I will be able to tell him the thruth.'' Neal commented with sadness in his voice
''and how did the Queen fare against the witch?'' Hook changed the subject
''better then she or anyone else expected. The rest is much complicated for a doorway conversation.'' Neal sniffed
''I understand. Good night, Mate'' and with that, Hook walk away.
In the farm house, Zelena was beyond furious, she could believe she had lost the fight, sooner or later, she will have Regina´s heart, even for this, she had to destroy the city.
''she´s clever, dear, but so am i.'' she growled after lock Rumpel again ''Regina´s heart is somewhere in this town and its only meter of time, before I find it''
''whatever twisted curse you have planned, it won't change anything.'' Mr. Gold barked at her '' if I had to do it all again, I'd still choose Regina.''
''would you, now? Well… I suppose we´ll just have to wait and see.''
''I don't get your point, dearie''
''we are doing it all over again, Rumpel. What I'm casting, isn't a curse.'' Zelena explained ''it's a second chance'' and with that, she walk away again.
