- (Danny)-

The next day Red and I move the stuff from the apartment to the one a crossed the hall.

"Danny! Come here" she calls and I walk into the new apartment. I find her in one of the rooms.

"This is your room." She says looking around. There is a bed and a window with a wardrobe. "Go get your clothes and get settled in. I will be fine." I nod and walk over to get my clothes.

I come back and put them in the wardrobe. After I get done I walk out to the living room Red is putting stuff out. I look at her dark hair falling in her face.

"Red I'm going out for a walk." I say walking to the door.

"You have your phone?" she asks and I nod before leaving the apartment.

I walk down the street before I get to the woods. I sigh deeply when I get into them and away from all of the woods. I find a tree and lean up against it.

-Later that day

I wake up in the woods and yawn before walking back to town. I open the door to grannies and the bell rings.

I look over and see Red talking with some guy. I ignore her and walk over to the counter.

"Hey Danny." Granny says coming over

"Hello Granny. Can I have a… 'Dr. Pepper'?" I ask and she smiles and pours me a drink. I sit and drink the drink occasionally looking around.

"Danny…" I turn around and find Red and the man. "Hey." I say looking him over.

"Whale this is my daughter Danny." Red says and I grimace at the term daughter. "Danny this is Whale." She says motioning between us.

Whale has a hand sticking out and I slowly accept it. "It's nice to meet you." I say and he smiles. "You to."

"Red I'm going upstairs." I say and she nods as I take my drink and leave.

- (Red)-

I watch her leave then look back at Whale. He smiles "she is beautiful."

I nod "yeah she is, but she pretty much hates me. Whale I understand if you don't want to keep dating me. I mean you didn't sign up for a woman with a sixteen year old daughter. Even if I am only twenty nine." I say and he laughs

"Red I want to keep dating you. Even if you have a teen daughter that hates you. She'll get over it, but I won't." He says and I smile up at him.

"So I'll pick you up on Saturday night." He says turning and leaving.

I finish up work and head upstairs to the apartment. I come inside and hear the shower running. I go over and start on dinner. A little while later Danny comes out and we sit down at the counter to eat.

I sigh and decide to try again to talk to her. "What was your favorite thing to do back home?" I ask and she looks up from her food at me. She looks like she is deciding whether to humor me or not.

"Running in wolf form on full moons." She says before going back to her food.

"Favorite color" I ask and she sighs but doesn't snap. "Black"

"Did you have a boyfriend?" I ask and she looks at me. "No"

"When did you first shift?" I ask and she closes her eyes before opening them. "When I was six."

"How long have you been with Cora and Hook?" she glares at me and remains silent. Finally she replies "twenty years."

After dinner she watches TV for a while longer before going to bed.

- (Danny)-

I climb into bed and close my eyes.

A terrible pain comes over me again as I cower in my room. I scream loudly and the women I am staying with runs in with another woman. "She is shifting."

The one woman says the other looks terrified "so she does take after her mother." She says "we need to warn the village! We have no idea what a monster like her will do!" they exclaim running in fear.

I continue to scream terrified as the pain becomes worse. I hear cracking and snapping as bones relocate.

"Mom!" I scream in pain "Mommy!" I wail as I writhe in pain.

"Mom!" I scream out to a woman I know will not come to my rescue.

- (Red)-

I sit up in my bed as I cry crying. "Mom!" I hear a scream "Mommy!" I jump out of bed and run into Danny's room to find her screaming and crying with tangled up blankets.

I lean over and touch her arm. It's clammy and wet; she is covered in a layer of sweat. "Danny, shh!" I whisper and take her hands off the blanket.

"Mom!" she wails and flings her head.

I sit down on the bed next to her. "Danny, shh… I'm right here baby." I whisper and push the hair out of her face.

"Mommy…" she whimpers and I continue running fingers through her hair. "Shh… I'm right here sweetheart." I whisper and she slowly calms down till I hear her breathing even out.

After a few minutes I kiss her head "I love you sweetheart." I whisper and pull the covers over her again before walking to the door. I cast one more look at her and go back to my room.

-next morning

I get up and change before going out to the kitchen. I make a bowl of cereal and wait for Danny to get up. About twenty minutes later she comes out dressed in her PJs.

"Good morning." I say smiling at her

"Hey" she mumbles back

She gets a bowl and makes some cereal before sitting down at the counter. "How did you sleep?" I ask wondering if she remembers or will tell me.

She looks at me for a second "fine" she says but I can tell she's lying.

"Ok great" I reply "listen I have to go to work. But you can hang out here and watch TV or whatever." I say taking my bowl to the sink.

"Ok" she says before going back to her food.

She is leaning over her bowl and I see a necklace swing out. I look at it closely. It's a ring on a piece of leather.

"Danny can I see that necklace?" she looks at me then down at her neck.

She takes the necklace off and hands it to me. I hold the ring in my hand looking at it closely. "Where did you get this?"

She looks up from her food "I have always had it. Since I was born." She says and I feel tears come to my eyes.

"This was mine, Peter gave it to me." I whisper as I stroke the item I haven't seen in years.

She coughs loudly before recovering and just looking at me. "Then how did I get it?"

I shake my head "I don't know?"

"Well you can keep it, it's yours anyway." She says and I look at it softly before shaking my head and holding it out to her.

"No you keep it. It's the only thing of your fathers that you have." She eyes be funny before nodding and returning it to her neck.

I wipe the tears from my eyes and leave for work.
