Sorry for not updating yesterday but I needed to watch Once.
Please review!
Gold´s shop at the same time:
The Charmings and Johanna all entered Rumple´s shop. He was their only hope to ever find Regina again but they were all not happy with it. Gold always required a price however Johanna was willing to pay anything just to get her daughter back.
,,Oh, what a lovely surprise. The whole family together. To what do owe this pleasure?" the older man asked with a grin. He knew exactly why they were coming. They were coming for Regina. Johanna was too nervous to speak so Snow spoke up first.
,,We need your help with finding Regina. She has been gone for days. Cora must have taken her. Is there any potion or spell you can give us?" she asked in a stern voice. David took her hand. He knew she was nervous too. The young woman always loved Regina, even in her Evil Queen years. Regina was the only mother she truly remembered.
,,There is." He answered and went over to a cupboard. The old man grabbed a small vale and got back to the counter. ,,This is one of Regina´s tears. To find her a second tear is needed. Whoever will give his tear needs to pour it in his or her eye and the person will feel everything Regina feels in that moment." He explained slowly looking over to Snow.
,,I will do it." She said. Everyone was shocked but supposed it was for the best. Snow thought about all the terrible things that had happened to her in the past and one single tear ran down cheek. Gold caught it in the vale and gave it to Snow. ,,What is the price?" she asked knowingly. He always wanted something.
,,This is for free. If Cora really took her then you need more than this. You´ll need someone just as powerful as Cora. I will come with you." Everyone looked at him shocked but they all knew it was true. Without him they would never be able to fight Cora. The witch was just too powerful and dangerous since she didn´t have her heart. They would likely lose without him on their side. He was their only chance. Regina needed to be rescued. For Johanna´s and Henry´s sake. The young boy needed his mom and the maid needed her daughter. They would do this. They would find her.
At Snow´s loft:
As soon as they got there Snow took the vale. She was ready to do this.
,,Are you sure?" David asked his wife worried. The young woman just nodded and her husband helped her pouring the salty liquid into her eye.
She was in pain. She never felt like this before. Someone was hitting her back with a whiplash. Cora! She couldn´t see very much as her eyes were slowly closing. The ground shook a little and she felt sick to her stomach. Regina always hated water.
Water! She must be on a ship.
Then the pain stopped and Snow came back to her senses.
,,What did you see?" Johanna and David asked at the same time.
,,Cora hit her. She is on Hook´s ship. It was terrible. She was screaming the whole time. For Archie! He is alive!" she concluded and slowly got up, ready to go.
They all went to the docks where the pirate ship was. It was still invisible but with Gold´s help they found it rather easily. Cora apparently wasn´t there and Hook was occupied so it was easy to get to Regina. They searched all rooms before they heard a whimpering noise. Archie was tied up and trying to get out. ,,Archie!" Emma shouted happily and untied the poor man. ,,Where is Regina?" she asked him.
He nodded to a door at the opposite side and breathed heavily. Snow, Johanna, David and Gold went to that room while Emma stayed with the man.
What they found in the room was shocking. A bald and unconscious Regina was lying on the floor in her own blood. Johanna immediately began to cry as did Snow. David carefully picked her up. They needed to get away before Cora noticed them. All of them ran up to the deck where Emma and Archie where waiting. Quickly they transported back to Gold´s shop where Gold tended to the wounds Cora left and the weak woman. She looked terrible as if she hadn´t slept or eaten in days. With her hair now completely shaved you could see the gash she had on the back of her head. All thanks to the woman who had raised her.
After the bleeding stopped Gold transported them to Johanna´s house so that Regina could rest and without Cora luring in every corner. Johanna knew this was only temporary but she was glad her daughter had finally come home to her. They would get Cora for this later. Right now they were just happy that Regina and Archie were alive and out of danger.
The therapist never left her side and was constantly holding her small hand. He truly loved her and seeing her like this broke his heart. She had been through so much already but this was just terrible. No one deserved to be treated like that. What Cora did to her was unforgivable. Henry wanted to see her too but they all decided it was better for him to not see her like this. He was still much too young to take this. Even now she was still the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and he would never leave her side again. That much was clear to everyone by now.
For Snow and the others it was weird to see them together but that would change in time. Archie was sure it would. He leaned down and softly kissed her forehead with a big content smile on his face. She was save now and that was all that he needed to be happy. They would get through this together. Cora wouldn´t be able to break them apart anymore.
Thanks for reading! I hope you all like it. And please read my new story ´A Happy Family`! And as always please review!
