Intro: Before they start their journey to find a loophole for their Blue problem Rumple keeps his promise to help restore Geppetto's parents and reunite a family.

****Wednesday 17th May 2017***

The following morning found the family relaxing in the living room after breakfast Rumple sat in his armchair reading the newspaper while his wife lay on the floor playing with their 3-day old son.

Rumple smiled when he heard Gideon happily cooing away.

"Say Rumple when do you plan on calling Tiger Lily?" asked Belle

Looking up from moving a rattle in front of Gideon's face, and chuckling when he reaches out to grab it

"Not yet my beauty" he answers

"Huh why not?" she asked lifting Gideon into her arms and standing up while making her way over to her husband.

"Well I have another idea another place where we may be able to find the answer to our problem," said Rumple while closing the newspaper and folding up before setting it aside and taking his family into his arms and sitting them on his lap.

"The place is in an unknown location in an unknown realm" said Rumple wrapping his arms around his wife's waist. He saw the light in her beautiful blue eyes light up.

"An adventure?" asked Belle

Rumple chuckled.

"Yes, my darling Belle an adventure"

"Whe…When…. Do…. We…. Leave?" asked an excited Belle

"As soon as we have finished packing it may take time, so I say we head to the shop grab our old clothes from the Enchanted forest and then head out we won't need much for Gideon as infant remand naked or swaddled or covered in a blanket in old days I'm taking the spinning wheel so if we need more clothing all I need to do is by the cloth and make the outfits myself.

Belle smiled.

"I always did love my maids dress you made me."

"I can make you more or even different types of dresses if you wish"

"Well looks like it's off to the shop we go hey hero and then it's onto a great adventure" said Belle.

Gideon coos happily.

"However, before we head off to our adventure I have a promise to keep"

He summoned the potion and a de-aging potion and tucked it away into his pocket of his jacket.

What's that potion for anyway?" asked Belle.

"It's a gift to help a friend undo his mistake and put a family back together again"

So together they leave the house get into the car take the 30-minute drive into town

Entering the inner part of town, they stopped by the shop entering the shop they headed to the back and sorted through the old clothing and packed what they were taking, afterwards they changed into their old outfits.

Belle grinned at seeing her husband back in his famous leather pants again only for his eyes to widened when he saw in her old maid's outfit.

"I can't believe the outfits STILL fit yet they seem tight in places" said Belle.

Rumple smiles "neither can I sweetheart but your right after all its been more than 30 years since we last wore these outfit" so with a snap of his fingers both outfits loosened in the area's that were too snug before undressing Gideon and swaddling him in a baby blanket. Afterwards they used Bae/ now Gideon's scarf as a baby sling, once it was placed around Belle and pined together Rumple placed their boy inside.

They packed their remaining clothing into a suite case and downsized the wheel before magically putting it into space pocket, before stepping though the curtain and into the front of the shop, where they walked over to the puppets; Belle looked at them and shuddered.

"So, this is them Geppetto's parents"

"Yes, dear this is them," said rumple.

"How are we going to do this Rumple I don't think using the potion on them while in Storybrooke is a good idea, they don't know this place"

Rumple rubbed his chin in thought "perhaps your right maybe it is best to return them to their true form in the Enchanted forest" moment later they look towards the door when the bell above the door jingled and saw Archie and Geppetto.

"Hello Archie, Geppetto" they greeted the two men.

"Archie told me everything Mr Gold is it true you can restore my parents" he asked sorrowfully looking at the puppets

"Yes, Geppetto I can" said Rumple "I can also de age you after all they won't know you as you are now however Storybrooke may not be the place to do it, so I suggest we return to your former home in the enchanted forest and restore them there but we de age you first don't worry you'll have all your memories of Storybrooke and everything else

"I will take the potion," said Geppetto.

Rumple smiled before going into the back room coming back moments later with a pouch and then pulled out a bean from the pouch. He activated the bean and throws it and the portal opened the 5 of them enter the portal.

****Donna and Stephen's Cottage enchanted forest*****

The exited the portal right outside Geppetto 's old family home Belle looked over at her husband and smiled, she then looked over at Archie/ Jiminy who had now returned to his cricket form, Rumple then looked at Geppetto, "Ready?" he asked the older man. Geppetto nods so Rumple first hands him the de-aging potion they watch him remove the cork and drink the potion.

Moment's later Geppetto de-aged into his younger self he then took the puppets into the house the others following behind and sat them down on the bench just behind the door.

Rumplestilskin popped the cork of the potion and pored each into their mouths then in a cloud of silvery-gray smoke the curse was broken, and they began coughing and splattering as the smoke cleared.

"Mum dad" Young Geppetto shouted joyfully

Donna and Stephen looked around it was then they spot their son and their face just lights up before they pull him into a hug after they pull back Geppetto sat them down and explained EVERYTHING, leaving nothing out.

To be fair poor Donna and Stephen kept blinking and couldn't seem to wrap their heads around everything they were told.

"So how are you still a child son?" asked Stephen.

"Rumplestilskin" said Geppetto.

Their eyes widened EVERYONE in the enchanted forest knew the dark one and they began looking around wildly yet fearfully, Rumple seeing the fear in their eyes closed his own in shame at how he used to pray on the Desperate souls of the people.

I was such a beast he thought mournfully

He opened his eyes when he felt a soft hand give his own a reassuring squeeze he looked to his left and saw his beauty give him a loving smile, Geppetto calmed them down and introduced them to a man with light human skin, grey-brown short hair and brown eyes.

Rumple gave them a kind smile and they seem to calm down more, yet they were also shocked by the difference in Appearance.

"A lot has happened since your 'imprisonment' so to speak but the short version is I fell in love with my caretaker Lady Belle who broke my curse and is now my wife" Rumplestilskin explained, they looked towards the woman with brown hair and Blue eyes and smiled,

"I do hate to suddenly leave but my wife and I need to be on our way Good day to you three and enjoy your time with your child, Jiminy look after them and I'm sure we will see you again one day" with that Rumple and Belle took their leave.
