Smee walked me home that night, I couldn't even wrap my hands around the whole thing knowing things were bad. I went to the pier again knowing too well there wasn't much I could do but I saw Snow and David. They were more for their alone time and I didn't have a whole lot to say about things. Once I was done at the pier I went to my apartment and went to bed.

When morning came I went for a walk, which did me some good as I was going about things in town I noticed that Regina was out with Henry. We didn't say much and behind me I could hear walking as I prepared to stop who was behind me they caught my wrist in the attempt.

"Hello luv." Killian said

Imagine my surprise seeing him as my arms went around him though it wasn't a comfortable hug with the extra baby weight. I kissed him with eagerness and happiness that he was back. Still I didn't trust Regina and I noticed even so that she went over by Henry. As I was paying attention to Henry and Regina I felt Killian's hand on my stomach.

"Looks like any day now." Killian said

"Very well could be." Amira admitted

Watching I wondered if Regina was up to no good and I was watching as she talked with Henry which didn't seem anything bad. I saw her pull a book out of her bag and use Magic on Henry like it was nothing new putting the book away. I was gonna go over and slap her but Killian held me back.

"Luv, think of the baby and your needs right now." Killian said

He was right i needed to maintain my stress levels or I could be sent into labor anytime. Still I had to be on the look out for what was to come and it was my baby I was more concerned about. Still he took me along with him as we ended up at Regina's office and walked in.

"Captain, You look like you've had a rought time." Regina said then looked at me "You must be very happy to have him back and not a minute too late it seems. Your clearly due anytime."

"Indeed, I have. I've come to ask for your protection." Killian said and he kept hold of my hand "Adding in Amira and the baby."

"From Gold?" Regina asked "I'm surprised you'd show your face in this town, once you noticed your murder didn't take."

"We've got bigger problems." Killian said to Regina and I wondered what the bigger problems were. "That man Greg Mendell, the one who hit me the night I shot Belle. Well, he's in league with some woman. She Abducted me in New York and dragged me back to Mendell. They want me to make an alliance with you and then betray you. That's why they let me go."

I was shocked to hear that our tourist Mr. Mendell was wanting him to do such a thing, I knew he was thinking of myself and the baby when bringing us here. Though I had to admit I wasn't entirely sure about all of it.

"Let's you and I make an alliance and we'll skip the unpleasant betrayal business." Killian said

"Why should I trust you?" Regina asked

"I took up with your mother for a reason. Perhaps the three of us could reestablish our alliance." Killian said

"My mother died." Regina said and looked at me "She had a part to play in it."

"Well, that is sad new indeed." Killian said then briefly looked at me but he knew I had to of had my reasons to do such a thing then looked at Regina. "I'm sorry. She will be missed. I will tell you this, Regina I knew her well enough to know that what she wanted most in the world was to see you win."

Regina seemed to be surprised at his words

"Now I failed in my Revenge. The Best Tribute I could give her is to help you with yours but Amira is off limits." Killian said

"Well, Can I.." Regina seemed hesitant "Let me show you something."

I hadn't told him yet about the beans, nor the plan but we went over anyway to where she'd had a beanstock for beans. I realized then she'd been to the site where they'd been growing them and knew my private stock of them was untouched in the apartment. In truth when we were out of here I planned to let him in on everything that was going on.

"Escape plan?" Killian asked and shook his head "Oh, she'd have loved that. She brought that giant for the beans, so she could go back and start over with you."

"And Now I'm going to do that with Henry." Regina said looking mainly at Killian "If you'll help me. This is how we're going to escape the total destruction of storybrooke. If I can trust you and well her."

"Now when you say total destruction, including the crocodile yes" Killian said

"Oh yes, Rumplestiltskin will die. If you help me" Regina said

Regina led us to the library which could of been a good thing had I not trusted her. I know things are bad but still she couldn't of made me think twice about this. I had my gut feeling when it came to trusting her but I trusted Killian.

"This why it's a two-man Job? You need me to low you?" Killian asked as I was quiet about the whole thing.

"No. Used to be..before Magic." Regina said

The elevator came up and we walked in the elevator, Killian leaned on the wall with his arm around me as we descended below. I knew I'd never been down there but still it was something. Many thoughts were going through my mind but I stayed quiet like a good little pirate princess. When we made it to the ground level and walked out

"You ever wonder if this constant pursuit for revenge. Is the reason well, no one cares for you?" Killian said knowing he had Amira "I mean when all of this is over and I know the crocodile is dead for good and all. Well I'll have one thing to look forward to."

I knew what he meant by those words, he had me and the baby. Still we kept walking and I wondered where she was taking us.

"Revenge may sate your being, but don't misunderstand me, my dear. It's an end of needing revenge." Killian said and he held my hand up that his hand had ahold of "this, this is my beginning to give my full attention."

"For you, maybe. Not me. I have Henry." Regina said and I rolled my eyes knowing Henry was of my bloodline. My niece's son but that wasn't the point at the moment. "and Destroying storybrooke? Well that seems like a small price to pay to allow us to live in peace.."

Killian let go of my hand motioning for Regina to lead the way, Regina looked at his wrist seeing the cuff. I recognized it from our journey on the beanstock.

"Where did you get that?" Regina asked and kept looking at it "it' belonged to my mother."

"Yes." Killian said "Well, she enchanted it. So I and Amira could climb the beanstalk in our world. She us.."

"I don't care why she gave it to you. It was hers, and I want it back." Regina said

Killian laughed looking up "You plan to blow this town off the map, and you're worried about a scrap of cowhide?" Killian asked as he kept me behind him, I was curious what he was up to.

"She was my mother." Regina said

"Well, she was my friend." Killian said

"Hardly" Regina said shaking her head

"Oh" Killian said offering the bracelet off his wrist and I watched as Regina put it on her wrist.

"Now follow me closely." Regina said leading the way

Killian put his arm around me once more as we followed behind Regina. We walked for some time before we went into a cave. I was curious as to why it was so hidden and yet things were going to become very interesting I could tell. Still there was a lot to be said about what happened next. Killian kept me towards the entrance of where we'd been taken and Killian looked at Regina.

"So why here?" Killian asked

"I had to put it somewhere no one would think to look. But there's a reason this is a two man job, you're the distraction while I get it." Regina said as I saw her push Killian.

I rushed to the edge looking down seeing something forming "Killian!" Amira said

I had to watch as he was avoiding Maleficent, I knew he was a survivor but this was crazy in all the things that could of been considered Crazy. Regina didn't seem to care as she was willing to leave us but I got to Regina as she made it to the elevator pinning her to the wall of it as it went up.

"How dare you Regina!" Amira said

"You'll realize I did you a favor." Regina said

When the door came open and we were at the top, I saw her looking at the bag in her hands but we both saw Killian sitting in a chair and gasped at seeing he was ok. I knew he'd be ok but I was still surprised how fast he was. He looked up, not at me but at Regina.

"How?" Regina asked

"Startinling, Aren't I? Some people say "Striking." " Killian said as he went over pulling me to him

"You couldn't have survived that." Regina said putting the bag away

"Well you should know by now. The one thing I excel at is surviving." Killian said as he appraoched her "The amazing thing is, you almost had me. All that stuff about a fresh, clean start, just Killing'em and movin on. It kinda touched me. For a moment there, I thought we had a real connection and honestly, I almost put a stop to my plan."

Regina looked at Killian just as confused as I was "Your plan?" Regina asked

"Well their plan, but I fancied it. Not the same way I fancy Amira but they did save me from that wretched whatever Maleficent is."

I didn't know what was going on but I knew one thing for sure, Killian was good and that was clear. I heard the door open and I looked seeing Tamara and Gregg walk in.

"Do you uh know these two?" Killian asked pointing over to them "Well, they have a way with magic. Or should I say, a way against Magic."

Regina shook her head "enough of this." Regina said as she tried to use her magic but nothing happened.

"Yeah, sorry that's not gonna work. Not anymore." Gregg said to Regina

"The cuff. You gave me this." Regina said and then she looked at Amira "You, did you know anything about this?"

I panicked a bit at her anger and shook my head I didn't realize what that would lead to soon.

"No, you rather insisted. Amira had no part to play in it, she had no idea." Killian said to Regina

Tamara and Gregg looked at each other as Regina walked toward Killian "You knew I would want it." Regina said

"They rigged it with something that blocks your Magic." Killian said then looked at them "it's Impressive"

"So little bitty own does grown-up Magic of his own now.." Regina said

"It's not Magic." Gregg said "Actually this is somehing much better, Science. You..you can stop doing that. It's not gonna work. You might be able to get rid of the leather, but inside are teh toughest metals and Machinery known to man and right now they're counteracting every magic bone in your body."

Tamara pulled out the list she had which I was shocked about as she looked through the list. "So which one is she?" Tamara asked

"Uh, she was the..the Queen. The evil Queen." Greg said

"Yes I was..The Queen." Regina said looking from Gregg to Tamara

"But now..here, You're nothing." Gregg said

"And what are you?" Regina asked him

"I'm just a man..A man on a mission." Gregg said

"And all this just to try to find your father. I already told you, I don't know where-" Regina didn't finish as he interrupted "Yes, you do. But that's not my mission."

"Then what is?" Amira asked clearly wondering as Killian stood beside me and the two looked at me.

"Which one are you?" Tamara asked me

"She's not for you to bother, she's mine." Killian said

I didn't feel the need to answer Tamara as I waited for Gregg to answer the question. Gregg shook his head "I'm not saying for her to know." Greff said to me then he looked at Tamara "Bag her"

I watched as they bagged Regina, and after that we started to walk home. As we were walking I started to feel pain and I gasped knowing this was new but soon I came to a big realization on what had happened. Killian must of figured it out too cause things went by so fast, we didn't have time to get me home where things were set up so I inevitably had no choice but to be admitted to the hospital the one place I swore I didn't want to end up at.

In truth the way things went it just isn't easy to say and I couldn't say how much time passed but sometime soon I was in a room sitting up and holding my baby I'd been waiting to see. I was so happy and I noticed the blanket was blue indicating it was a boy. Killian seemed to look at me as things were now where they should be. I'd need time to rest but that wasn't something I could take lightly.

"Luv, what should we name him?" Killian asked

I looked up at him with a smile "We could call him Liam after your brother. Maybe his middle name could be Leopold after my father." Amira said

Killian was sitting by my hospital bed and looking at him "Liam Leopold Jones, I like it luv." Killian said

I nod in agreement and I did let him hold his son which I helped him figure out how to do so carefully facing the hook away from the baby. This was our miracle, a sign to me that we were meant to be. I knew more adventures awaited us but for now.

For now we had our little Liam.
