Chapter 10 – Where is the dagger
Regina arrives at the hospital. She's going to see Belle, the one person that Rumple trust and also love. As Regina and her mother are trying to locate Rumple's dagger, they realize they need to go to someone he would trust it to, and Regina knows it's Belle.
But Belle is in the hospital, with no memory of who she is, so she could never tell them where the dagger is. But Regina has gone there anyway, to see if she can find something that could help them.
She finds the door to Belle's room and opens it. The girl turns around on the bed, looking at her as she walks inside. Regina smiles.
"Who're you?" Belle asks confused.
"So it is true. You really don't remember anything?"
"Where we friends?"
"We spend some time together." Regina nods and walks closer to the bed. "But I'm here because I believe you can help me find something. That belongs to Rumplestiltskin?"
"Who?" The girl asks confused.
"I, I don't know him." Regina lifts up her hand and makes the girl fall asleep with her magic.
"Not anymore. But you did." Regina opens the girl's purse and makes the objects inside float into the air. She looks at them for a few second until she spots a piece of paper. She races her hand and takes it. On it it is some numbers, 915.63. Regina thinks for a few seconds then turns and walks out of the room and out of the hospital.
She comes home to Cora and tells her that she know where to go next, to find the dagger. They leave the house with Hook and as they do to figures show up at the gate. It's Rosalie and Daniel that has returned home, they see Regina's car drive away as they walk up to the front door.
Regina took her mother and Hook to the library. They are now going through the selfs after the number Regina found on the paper in Belle's purse.
"Shouldn't we be pillaging his shop or ransacking his home?" Hook asks.
"That would be the obvious choice, yes." Regina says walking over to an other bookshelf. "But Gold wouldn't risk crossing the town line and losing his memory, without trusting the daggers location to someone."
"Belle." Hook states the obvious.
"My guess is she hid it in one of her's beloved books."
"Impressive, Regina." Cora says walking over to her daughter.
"Thank you mother." Regina smiles happy with the approval of her mother.
"I'll be impressed when I'm holding the dagger in my hand." Hook says.
"No.." Regina finds the spot where the numbers 915.63 is on the shelf. "It should be here." She points at the room between two books.
"Well it's not is it, may we go now?" Hook is getting restless.
"Hold on." Cora puts her hand inside the two books and takes out a folded paper. She folds it out. "What's this?" She shows it to Hook.
"Ah, yes. Crud. To the untrained eye, child scribbles. But to a pirate, it's a map." Hook takes the map "Gold may not have hidden the dagger here, but I believe he left us the next best thing." He walks over to the table and puts it down and Cora and Regina joins him. "It's location."
"Can you read it?" Cora asks looking up at the pirate.
"Well, lucky for you ladies. I'm quite a debt of finding buried treasure."
After a minute Hook looks up from the map.
"I'll give you the location of the dagger." Hook points at Rumple's map and shows it on the regular map.
"Well done Hook." Cora says and then craps the map fast and starts to walk out. "We'll take it from here." Regina walks after her mother.
"No." Hook crabs his replace hook and point after Cora. "You promised me!"
Cora pushes Hook away with her magic, so he ends up on the floor, unconscious. "The kris(?) dagger is much to powerful to be wasted on you." She takes Regina by her arm and turns away from Hook.
"So, is this what it was all about?" Regina asks and Cora stops to face her. "Getting Rumple's dagger so you could obtain his dark powers?"
"If we posses the dagger, we control the dark one. And when he returns to Storybrooke we can command him to kill Snow White, Prince Charming and Emma. Our enemies will be vanquished. And you, will be blameless in the eyes of the only person who matters." Cora says stroking Regina's hair.
"Henry." Regina finish. Cora smiles at her daughter and Regina takes her hand and the walk out of the library smiling.
