I had the nightmare again, "Hello? Hello?" I called. "Rose! Rose, it is you!" The girl said. "Yeah! Who are you?" I asked. "My name is Aurora. I'm with your mom and your grandmother," She said.

"Are they okay?" I asked. "Yes, they're fine. They just want to come home. And they need your help," She said. "Okay, so what do I need to do?" I asked and Aurora told me.

I woke up, "They're alive. They're alive!" I said. Regina and Grandpa, who were asleep near the bed I slept in, were awakened. "Who? Who's alive?" Grandpa asked. "My Mom and Snow," I replied as Grandpa sat down on the bed.

"I told you, kid. I told you!" Grandpa said with a smile. "Was . . . Was it that woman you saw? Did she tell you this?" Regina asked. "Her name's Aurora. She said they have a way home, but there's someone in their way - someone they need us to help them stop. Someone only Mr. Gold knows how to defeat," I said. "Who?" Regina asked. "Your mother," I replied.

... ...

Regina talked to Mr. Gold and he will help us. We went to Mr. Gold shop. I was lying down on a bed in his shop and Regina walked over to me with blanket. She smiled softly, "I brought your blanket . . . from your bedroom back home," She said as she put the blanket over me. "Thank you," I said, "So, Cora . . . She's pretty powerful?"

"Yes, but, uh, not as powerful as I am," Mr. Gold replied as Regina took off her coat. She scoffed, "Debatable," She said. "Actually, no, it's not," Mr. Gold said. Grandpa walked over to me and sat on the bed, "You sure you're okay to do this, hon?"

"I was born to do this. I'm done reading about heroes. I want to be one," I said. "Well, sometimes being one is knowing when not to run into the fire," Grandpa said. "I'll be okay," I promised. "Look, whatever she faces in there, will be far less dangerous than what she'll face if we fail," Mr. Gold said.

"I can do this," I said. Grandpa sighed and gave a small nod. He looked at me for a few seconds before he got up and walked past Mr. Gold as he said to him, "Get on with it. Fast."

Mr. Gold walked over to me and sat on a chair next to my bed. "Alright, Rose. Just relax. And soon, you're going to drift off," He said. "What do I tell them?" I asked. "Just listen to my bedtime story, and all will be clear," He replied and he placed his hand on my forehead as I closed my eyes.

"Once upon a time, Snow White and Prince Charming needed to stun a very powerful magician, long enough to lock him up in a dark dungeon," Mr. Gold said as I opened my eyes. "That was you. They used Cinderella to trap you with a magic quill," I said.

Mr. Gold moved his hand across my face, I closed my eyes and fall asleep, "Yes, indeed a quill. And yet, it wasn't the quill itself, but the ink that captured the Dark One - harvested from the rarest species of squid, from the bottom of a bottomless ocean. Impossible to find, unless, you're a mermaid . . . Or me. I happen to have a private supply. In my jail cell . . . That is where they will find it."

I was in the room in the Netherworld. I saw Aurora, "Rose! Rose! Can you help us?" She asked. "Yes! I know what you have to do to stop Cora! You have to go to -" The flames cut me off. "Rumpelstiltskin's cell!"

"Where? We have to go where? Wait. Where do we have to go?" Aurora asked. "Rumpelstiltskin's -" The flames cut me off again. "Rose! Rose, I . . . Who is that?" Aurora asked. "Did you hear me?" I asked.

"No! Rose, say it again! I - Did you hear that?" She asked. "No! Aurora, what's going on?" I asked. "Do you hear that?" She asked. Suddenly, Aurora was sucked into a vortex and was lifted out of the room.

I woke up and Grandpa rushed to my side with Regina. "Rose. Are you alright?" Grandpa asked. "Did you see her? Did you tell her?" Mr. Gold asked and I felt my arm hurts.

"No. I . . . I didn't get the chance. Something . . . Something happened. She . . . She got sucked out of there," I said but I felt pain. "Rose?" Regina asked. "Some . . . Something's wrong," I cried. Regina pulled back my sleeve, revealing a burn. "Rose . . ." She said.
