Chapter Twenty One
Granny's restaurant was busy as usual. David and Mary Margret sat in the same booth with Rex and Timmy. Timmy sensed something was up with the two, they looked tense at him and Rex.
Timmy looked at them curiously, "So what's so important that it couldn't wait?"
David sighed, "It's about Boromir."
Rex raised his eyebrow at them, "What about Boromir?"
David hesitated, "You see in light of recent events there have been accusations."
"What kind of accusations?" Timmy asked.
Mary Margret looked authoritative, "It has been brought to our attention," She sighed, "That you have not been honest with us about Boromir."
Rex and Timmy became confused, looking at the Charmings like they were talking about two different things.
"What exactly have we not been honest about?" Rex raised his eye brow at them.
Mary Margret scoffed, "You failed to mention us the fact that he is a villain."
"WHAT?!" Timmy and Rex looked at them with shock.
"Wait a minute. Where do you guys get off saying that Boromir is a villains?!" Rex angered asked.
David concerned said, "Look we don't like this anymore than you guys do." He sighed, "But in recent light of events Emma has been making accusations against Carl…"
Rex cut of David, "What has Emma been saying?"
David said, "Emma believes that Carl is working with Sauron."
Timmy eyes widen with shock.
"What?! That is absurd!" Rex exclaimed.
"There is another thing…" Mary Margret said, "I also heard that Boromir tried to kill Carl for the Ring, is that true?"
"First of all what happened with Boromir. It was not his fault, The Ring drove him mad, and he wasn't himself." Rex sounding desperate to defend his friends.
"And I will assume that Carl claiming Sauron's ring wasn't his fault either?" Mary Margret asked.
Timmy asked, "How would you even know what happened?"
"It's in the books and the movies." David said.
Timmy rolled his eyes at them, sarcastically said, "And do you believe everything that you read or see? Why brings this up now, you guys didn't have a problem with either of them. So what changed?"
"What are you guys talking about?" The four turned to see Emma wondering what was going on.
Timmy sarcastically said, "Well Emma no thanks to you, these two fools think Boromir is a villain."
"What?! Why do you guys think Boromir is a villain?" Emma asked shock, "First you want to leave Regina behind and now you guys Boromir is a villain, and he hasn't done anything."
Timmy looked at Mary Margret and David, "For someone who preaches forgiveness, you guys are hardly the forgiving types. Though, I am not surprised considering what you did to Regina."
Mary Margret looked shocked, while David became enraged.
David became angry and pointed the finger at Timmy, scolding the boy wizard, "Listen kid, you have no idea what Regina has done to us."
Timmy scoffed, "First of all young man. I am technically not a child at time I checked. She was trying to redeem herself and now you guys screw her over."
Mary Margret sighed, "Every time Regina has been given a second chance. She always turned to darkness."
Emma scoffed, "Yeah like the time we accused her of killing Archie…"
Mary Margret looked at Emma with pity, "Emma…"
"You also tricked Regina into killing her mother." Emma looked at David and Mary Margret like hypocrites, while Timmy and Rex were bewildered.
Rex looked shocked, "You made Regina kill her own Mother?!"
Mary Margret cried, "No! I was manipulated by Gold…"
Emma cut off Mary Margret, "Don't down play it! No matter how you were manipulated you still did what you did. For crying out loud you gave Regina a cursed heart! It's a miracle Regina didn't level the town."
"It's definitely a miracle indeed." Timmy sarcastically said.
Emma was furious at her parents, leaving Regina behind was one thing but to condemn Boromir for something that was barely his fault was entirely another. Their supposed to be Snow White and Prince Charming for crying out loud! Their supposed to be the epitome of good and forgives, and yet they couldn't even acknowledge the fact that they for once actually wrong Regina and now they were to condemned an innocent man for making a tragic mistake. Timmy wondered how these heroes turned out to be no more than narrow minded fools. Though he never why Regina was called The Evil Queen…maybe for opposing a princess, but then again politics wasn't much of his strong points.
Suddenly, Emma's phone rang.
Emma answered her phone, "Hello?" She looked concerned, "Wait a minute slow down. What happened?"
The four looked at Emma as she said, "I am on my way."
Rex asked, "What is it?"
She looked at the others, "Chloe called, apparently Carl is missing."
Meanwhile somewhere in the forest of Storybrooke…
"So is your real name Morgana or Morrigan?" Boromir asked, walking on a path next to Morgana. While Goron and Cuddles were walking ahead of them.
Morgana sighed, "Well, actually my real name is Morrigan but most people call me Morgana instead."
Boromir felt confused, "Really your name almost sounds like Morgan. And your curse name?"
Morgana said, "Well my curse name is actually Sara." She chuckled, "True Morrigan almost sounds like Morgan, but it's pronounced Morr-i-gan. Does that make sense?"
"So why are you call Morgana?" Boromir looked curious.
"Well in the kingdom where I was sort of fostered, people would call me Morgana instead of Morrigan." Morgana sighed.
"Sort of fostered?" Boromir raised his eyebrow in curiosity
"It's a really long story for another time."
"So how did you get the name Morgana?"
Morgana sighed, "The people who fostered me wanted me to have a different name I guess."
"Really?" Boromir asked, "So who were you in the Enchanted Forest?"
Morgana chuckled nervously, "I would prefer not to say."
Boromir sensed she was a bit uncomfortable, "Is there a reason?"
Morgana and Boromir stopped walking. Morgana rubbed the back of her neck, "To be honest, it's complicated."
"Why is it my Lady?" He raised his eyebrow at her.
Morgana scoffed, "It's just my past is a very complicated one at best."
"Why?"
Sadness overcame Morgana, "To some people they think the world is black and white. That there is no middle ground. I assume you meet Snow White and Prince Charming or rather their other names David Nolan and Mary Margret Blanchard."
"Aye I have. Are you one of their friends?"
Morgana scoffed, her face had the expression of 'yeah when hell freezes over', "I think the term is acquaintance. And let's be clear I have nothing against them, it just they don't see what's beyond their own eyes. They only see the world as heroes and villains."
Boromir asked, "And what are you?"
"Just someone who needs to do what necessary in order to maintain balance." Morgana raised her eyebrow, "I am surprised you know them given your past."
"My past?"
"Didn't you attempt to take Sauron's Ring from Frodo Baggins?" Morgana curiously said.
Boromir felt hurt, for being reminded for what he did.
Morgana became upset, "Oh no! I am sorry that I brought up a sore subject." She lowered her head frowning.
Boromir smiled, put his hand on her shoulder, "It's okay, what's done is done my Lady."
Morgana raised her head up chuckling, "My Lady? Really? And they say chivalry is dead."
They laughed together.
"We must hurry my friends! We cannot be delayed." They heard Goron from a distance.
"Best not to keep them waiting." Boromir said.
"Likewise." They resumed walking.
Sorry for the delay in updating but I was busy with everything. I hoped you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration and best wishes to you all.
