Chapter 14 Angels would fall.
While the people of Storybrooke, are imbuing the enchanted sword with all their power for Emma to use to travel to the Dark Realm and bring back Gideon and Robin.
In the Dark Realm, Fiona's lair to be exact we have Fiona and Robin stand opposite each other!
"Robin Hood Mills I must say for such a young child you are very brave," Fiona said.
"Cut the pleasantries Fiona" Robin snapped.
"Or should I say foolish to speak to someone of my status and rank like that" Fiona replies with aggression.
"Someone of your rank it seems you have deluded idea of how we treat child snatchers" Robin spoke unafraid of the Black Fairy.
"You, have a great fire within you, Robin I can see why Gideon likes you but at last you coming here was an error but it doesn't matter," Fiona says.
"I stopped you from kidnapping Gideon I say I ruined your plans" Robin gloated.
"Oh, you didn't ruin my plans Gideon is on his way as we speak I can sense his portal it be some time but what do you expect from somebody who hasn't created a portal before" Fiona chuckles making Robin angry.
"I won't let you hurt him, I'll pluck your wings before you can lay a finger on him" Robin shouts as she fires a medium sized sphere of light magic at Fiona who just crushes it with her bare hands!
"You are quite powerful for your age like Gideon but light magic fades in the Dark Realm, dearie and without full training, you're about as dangerous as a fly," Fiona said before using telekinesis to throw Robin across her throne room through a looking glass that shatters and Robin lands hard on the floor in pain.
"Ow, you little bug" Robin shouts before firing a small wave of light magic at Fiona, however, it just scratches Fiona who in return levitates Fiona a few inches off the ground and traps her in a sphere of dark magic!
"Soon I'll be free and then I will kill the saviour before finding every firstborn witch or wizard of the Gold line and add their power to mine" Fiona announced.
The journey through the portal proves to be long for Gideon and sometime between Gideon finds his subconscious drifting away not by choice.
Gideon finds his subconscious self on a swing on a graveyard.
But Gideon is not alone for there is a middle-aged woman sat on the swing next to him wearing a blue dress!
"I've been here before this is not the Dark Realm," Gideon says to himself.
"You're right, Gideon this is not the Dark Realm, this is somewhere special a world between reality and fantasy" The woman in a blue dress replies.
"Who are you miss you look so familiar almost like my mother"? Gideon questions.
"My name is Colette and I'm your grandmother from your mother's side" Colette spoke shocking Gideon.
"It's nice to meet you Grams but you are, dead are dead relatives always going to visit me," Gideon commented.
"No, not always I'm here to prepare you for what is about to come," Colette said.
"You, know I'm going to the Dark Realm, don't you" Gideon replied.
"Yes, Gideon and it's time you know about your true calling you are Gatekeeper the one responsible for keeping balance between realms and you have the ability with practice to open portals, doors and gateways to all realms and are the only one who can free Fiona from the Dark Realm for all time," Colette explained.
"That's why she wants me but I'm not that powerful I'm just a kid," Gideon says.
"You're so much more than a child sweet Gideon now listen carefully when you get to the Dark Realm, Fiona will try and use Robin against you," Colette said.
"I can't let Fiona hurt Robin, I don't know what I do if I lost Robin," Gideon spoke.
"I know sweetie that what loves feels like," Colette replies.
"I don't love Robin, well I do but not love, love oh I don't know," Gideon says.
"Oh, to be young and in love, it's okay not to know what stage of love you're in with Robin, just remember love is the greatest power of all even if some people try and use it as weapons" Colette spoke.
"Do you know what will happen if I lose this fight against Fiona,"? Gideon asks.
"Gideon it doesn't matter who wins this fight what truly matters is who wins the war," Colette advised before fading away and Gideon finds himself stumbling into the Dark Realm, fully aware of his surroundings.
Gideon knows he has to be careful.
Gideon has no idea where to start to find his way to Robin at first.
But then it hits him a location spell.
Gideon who at first doubts he can cast a successful locator spell reminds himself of all the things he succeeded recently bringing back his mother and Baelfire, as well as creating a new brand of magic with Prue.
Gideon believing he can cast a locator spell without any item or blood belonging to Robin focuses picturing an image of Robin his mind he whispers to himself shows me the way to Robin.
Then suddenly the cold wind in the Dark Realm blows and against the dark forest, the dead tree branches sway with it.
As well as dead leaves fly on the wind Gideon looks down to the ground to see a path of light manifesting Gideon smiles and follows the path of the light to the entrance to Fiona's lair.
Gideon upon arriving at the entrance of Fiona's lair carefully enters and checks his surroundings.
On his way through Fiona's lair, Gideon had to take out a few of Fiona's guards which he did by throwing them into walls with his magic.
The path of light leads Gideon to Fiona's throne room where Gideon sees Robin trapped in a sphere of darkness.
Gideon runs up to the sphere which Robin is trapped in and sees no sign of Fiona at this minute.
"Robin, don't worry I'm going to get you out of here" Gideon spoke.
"You, look so much like your parents," Fiona says as she manifests in black smoke behind Gideon.
"Fiona" Gideon shouts as he turns to face her.
"I would prefer grams but each to their own" Fiona chuckled.
"I know what you want and you're not getting it" Gideon snaps.
"Oh, but I am dearie you see Gideon your father can't protect you now" Fiona replied.
"Oh, I'm going to enjoy squashing you like a bug" Gideon snarls.
"Let's get this over with shall we," Fiona said as she fires a beam of dark magic at Gideon.
"Deflect" Gideon yells while holding his hand out and as the beam is about to make contact with Gideon's hand a gold disk of magic appears and deflects the beam of dark magic at Fiona who opens her wings and ascends into the air to avoid her beam of dark magic.
"Impressive child if only you would actually practice magic at a younger age you would actually have a better chance at winning this fight" Fiona snarls.
"We see bug weapons" Gideon shouts and within seconds all kinds of weapons emerge from some gold smoke and Gideon fires them at Fiona who just makes a gesture turning the weapons into sand which falls onto the floor.
"I'm disappointed Gideon for the Gatekeeper your power is not that great oh well I suppose you have the magic to put Robin in a jar after I render her to ash" Fiona chuckles causing Gideon to lash out in rage.
"Burn in hell" Gideon screams as he fires blast of magic at Fiona who fires a blast of magic too with their magic colliding bolts of magic flys off hitting walls and destroying small objects Gideon notices Fiona flying slightly further away from him thinking she trying to keep a distance from him pushing himself further in her direction Gideon stands on a mystic seal trapping himself ending his blast of magic Fiona blast fades too Fiona lands on the floor and walks up to Gideon!
"I can't move," Gideon says.
"That's to be expected child when you're trapped on a mystic seal," Fiona replied.
"Mystic seal what are you going to do," Gideon asks.
"Simple child, I'm now, going to use your magic to break me free from this realm so I can kill the saviour and find all Gold firstborns to add to my power" Fiona explained before flying over to the back of Gideon.
"You, won't win Fiona," Gideon said.
"I already have now to prevent any resistance I'm about to conjure a magical decipher that will decipher your magic so I can open the portal Storybrooke fully," Fiona says before she grabs hold of the back of Gideon's head before speaking again.
"And now for my darkness to spread from this realm into Storybrooke I call upon my grandson the Gatekeeper's powers to open a hole throughout time and space one which will take me to kill Emma Swan" Fiona spoke causing Gideon to unwillingly release a beam of magic that opens a semi-open portal!
"I failed," Gideon whispers to himself.
"You did Gideon although this portal is semi-open soon the decipher I have above you will decipher both your dark magic and vocalization so the portal will become fully open and I'll have the extra power from this realm" Fiona laughs as she flys straight through the portal.
Meanwhile, back in the convent at Storybrooke, the people of Storybrooke have completed imbuing the enchanted sword with their magic for Emma to use to try and open a portal to the Dark Realm.
So she can save both Gideon and Robin!
"It's ready" Regina announced.
"Will it work"? Emma asks.
"We don't know but it's our only chance," Blue replies.
"Emma" Both Belle and Zelena say in unison.
"Yes," Emma said.
"Bring our children home," Bella and Zelena spoke in unison.
"Here I come," Emma says as she makes a swift motion with the sword opening a semi-stable portal to the Dark Realm and Emma quickly jumps through before it closes.
