Time Period: A Flashback
Place: The Hospital Waiting Room
Rumple's p.o.v
"Avalon's heart failed her again. She is gone for good this time. My team and I did everything that
we could for her" Chloe informs us. She does a good job of hiding her emotions. I bet she never
expected for her patient and best friend to die. Meanwhile, I am torn asunder. My heart falls flat on
the floor. My child is dead! I can't believe I am going through this again. I love children, but what is
the point of having them if I keep on losing them? Belle helps me regain my balance and sanity.
Regina and Solomon stand still trying to possess what just happen. I don't want them to see me cry
so I try to hold it together. Sensing I may need some tender loving care, Belle takes me home asap.
Away from the eyes of the world, I allow myself to mourn. Belle holds me tight and whispers sweet
lovely things.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The Cemetery
Rumple's p.o.v
My daughter has a tombstone. It is surreal and yet feels very real. I spend my time talking to both
Baelfire and her. I can feel their spirits here with me. They are still alive inside my heart and mind.
