chapter thirteen
Mr. Gold walks into the shop that morning thinking to himself today would be the day everything was going to be different. After Mr. Gold enter's into the back room he takes a seat on a near by stool and started to work on a simple clock he had been working on a few days prior. In the mean time Emma had just rushed in Henry into the local hopistal after he ate a apple turn over she had gotten from Regina the night before as a peace offering.
After a while of having a peace and quiet in his shop the bell hanging above the started to ring as both Emma and Regina walk in to his shop , So Mr. Gold walks out of the back room and looks at both Emma and Regina before saying " Do my eyes deceive me, or is that the look of a believer?" . Emma looks at Mr. Gold with a worried look before saying " we need your help. " Mr. Gold nods before replying with " Indeed, you do. It seems quite the tragic ailment has befallen our young friend" , then he truns to look at regina before saying " I told you magic comes with a price " .
Regina glares at Mr. gold then says " Henry shouldn't have to pay it." which Mr. gold sadly nods agreeing with Regina that Henry shouldn't pay for Regina's mastake before saying " No, you should, but alas, we are where we are. " Emma lets out a angry sigh before asking Mr. Gold " Can you help us?" , to which Mr. gold replied with " Of course " before Emma asked " with what ? "
Mr. Gold smirks to himself before saying " True love, Miss Swan, the only magic strong enough to transcend realms and break any for you, I happen to have bottled some." Regina looked at Mr. gold suprised before saying " You did?" . Mr. Gold chuckles before he says " Oh yes " .Then Emma coughs a bit akwardly before asking " so um how did you make it ? "
smiled a bit before saying " From strands of your parents' hair, I made the most powerful potion in all the realm. So powerful, that, when I created the Dark Curse, I placed a single drop on the parchment. Just a little safety valve." Emma then realizes that everything Henery had told to be ture about her being the savior, then she said " that's why I'm the savior, that's why I can break the curse." Mr. Gold smiles to Emma before saying " Now you're getting it."
Emma nods her head before saying " I don't care about breaking the curse. All I care about is saving Henry." Mr. gold chuckles to himeself then says " well today is your lucky day. I didn't use all the potion. I saved some. For a rainy day." " Well, it's storming like a bitch. Where is it?" Emma asked wanting to help Henry as fast as she could. " Where it is, isn't the problem. Getting it is what should worry you."
Regina was getting annoyed with Mr. gold before she said " Enough riddles. What do we do?" ," You do nothing. It has to be Miss Swan." Mr. gold said with a bit of a sneer towards REgina in his voice. Regina lets out a angered grumble before saying " He's my son. It should be me." " All due respect, but it's her son. And it has to be her. She's the product of the magic. She must be the one to find it." Mr. Gold said before digging around the back of his left counter space for something.
Emma looked determined before saying " I can do it." Regina looks at Emma before saying " Don't trust him" " What choice do we have?" Emma said back to Regina before turning to look back at Mr. gold as he turned around holding a case before placing it down on top of the counter . " That's right dearie, What choice do you have?" Mr. gold said as he walked over to a near by wall of small drawers and opens on of them and grabs something from inside one of the drawers.
Then Emma asks " Where is this magic? " Mr. Gold looks to Regina as he walks back over to the case sitting closed on the counter before saying " Tell me, your Majesty, is our friend still in the basement?" Regina glares at Mr. Gold before saying " Oh, you twisted little imp. You hid it with her?"
Mr. Gold lets out a high pitch giggle before saying " Oh no no no, not with her. In her. I knew you couldn't resist bringing her over." Emma looked a bit confused before asking " Who is "her"?" " Someone you should be prepared for. Where you're going, you're gonna need this" Mr Gold said as he unlocked the case and turned it around to show Emma and Regina what was inside . " What is that? " Emma asked not seeing to many swords like that before.
" Your father's sword." Mr. gold said looking at both of them waitting for some kind of answer from either of them. After Emma took the sword Mr. gold gave her , both her and Regina walked out side Mr. gold's shop headed off to find this postion Mr. gold made a long time ago. After Emma and Regina left Mr. gold smriks to him self loving how much his of his plan was falling into place but he did wish he could be sharing this with Belle.
