"So, now that we know who we are dealing with, how do we find this Wicked Witch?" Daniella asked
"Might I suggest we start by asking, if anyone has seen a woman with green skin running around." Neal suggested
"We're cursed in Storybrooke. She'll look like any one of us." Emma said
"Why don't we look for anyone who is new to this town that wasn't here from the last curse."Regina said."Besides you Daniella."Regina said after getting a look from Emma
"You're right, has anyone seen any strangers walking around." David asked
"There was this woman in Granny's dinner who was new but she didn't seem to have any magic and plus she's a midwife." Mary Margaret said
"We should still check her out just to be on the safe side" Emma said
~Zelena's apartment ~
"I'll take the bedrooms, you can take the living room and kitchen" Daniella said to Killian
"Are you sure you'll be ok" Killian said
"Of course Emma did teach me a few skills" Daniella reassured him
"Let me know if you need me" Killian said
"Of course" Daniella said as she left the room
~1 hour later~
"Did you find anything." Killian asked
"Nope, but she's very neat and doesn't seem to leave anything lying around" Daniella said
"No luck here either, lets go inform the others."
~Apartment~
"No, he caught you in a net? Zelena said laughing
"Well, I had just robbed his carriage." Mary Margaret said reminiscing the past
"Oh, my God. You two got quite a love story." Zelena said laughing
"Well, speak of the handsome devil. Zelena, this is David." Mary Margaret said introducing them
"Mr. Nolan, it's so lovely to meet you".Zelena said shaking his hand
"Okay, so, I'm here. Shall we get this started? David asked as he sits down
"Oh, it sounds like you mean 'shall we get this finished?'"Mary Margaret laughed
"No, no. I'm here. Let's do this."David assured
"Before we begin, I'm gonna get us a cup of tea." Mary Margaret announced standing up
"No, no, no. Let me make you some tea. After all, that's what I'm here for. To make your life as easy as possible. Zelena said as she stands up entering the kitchen
"I mean, isn't she wonderful?" Mary Margaret said quietly to David
"Yeah, she seems perfect. But can we trust her? We don't even know her" David said looking over to Zelena
"It's entirely possible we were all friends in our missing year." Mary Margaret reassured
"And it's possible we weren't. Look, I just wish we'd knew more about her. It's not like we can ask for references from a missing year."David sighed
"David, if any part of this feels wrong to you - to either one of us - we can always change our minds. Let's just hear her out, right?" Mary Margaret pleaded
"Here we go. I hope chamomile is okay. I've found it's excellent for the nerves. Zelena said as she walked back in serving the tea
"Thats perfect. thank you" Mary Margaret said
"Now lets get started shall we, so you've already gone through labor twice, so at least you know what to expect. Zelena said
"Oh, yes. We both do. I don't think your hand has recovered from my squeezing it."Mary Margaret said to David
"Well, it's been almost twenty seven years. I'm sure it healed." David laughed
"As I'm sure you remember your second birth went quicker than your first I assume." Getting the nod of agreement Zelena continued." Now this one will delivery will go much quicker than the last two"
"Well, that's putting it mildly. I seem to have gone from zero to due date in the blink of an eye."Mary Margaret laughed
"How's the father doing?" Zelena asked
"Oh. Me? I'm fine. I'm great." David said
"Look, Mary Margaret was telling me earlier about what happened during the first curse. Loosing your daughters It's tragic. especially with not knowing what happened to your youngest child and not knowing if you'd ever see her again. Look, I don't mean to pry, but she did express anxieties about all of this. Zelena said expressing her concern
"You did?" David looked to Mary Margaret
"David, I saw you standing by Daniella's room her first night here you were afraid to leave her side. I know it seems to good to be true but our baby is really home for good she back. I know you have fears with this baby about now wanting to make the same mistakes we wont I promise. Mary Margaret said comforting her husband
"Thank you, I guess I'm being paranoid, it just seems to good to be true will we really get to raise our child all the way from birth to adult hood." David held Mary Margarets hand gently for comfort
"Of course and we'll do it together" Mary Margaret smiled
"Cheers to that, then. (They clink mugs and drink) You're so lucky to have each other, now that is what I call true love. You know, I think we've done enough for today. It was wonderful to meet you, Mister Nolan." Zelena said getting up and shaking his hand
"It's David. Nice to meet you, too, Zelena." David replied
~The woods~
"So did you find anything in the apartment." Emma asked
"Nope, but I have a really bad feeling about this." Daniella said
"What do you mean" Emma said"
"Dani believes it was a false lead, the apartment was a distraction, but we did find berries in the kitchen that could only come from one place, here." Killian said
"Dani are you ok." Emma said as Dani walked farther into the woods
"You know that feeling when your watching a horror movie and the friend, you think is a friend turns out to be the killer. Well thats what I'm feeling in the pit of my stomach"Dani said
"If you feel all that from an apartment building, I wonder what you were thinking when you were dating a flying monkey." Killian said
"Are you saying that your questioning my feelings." Dani said looking over at Killian
"Well, I did save you from spending your life with him, now tell me where you really in love with him." Killian asked
"Why does this matter, and how does it help with the investigation" Dani said
"C'mon humor me Oliver" Killian said
"Yes. Okay? I was in love, so of course, I was with him for 8 months, but as usual, he wasn't who he said he was and I got my heart broken. Enough humor for you?
"Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm glad to hear that." Killian said
"You're glad to hear I had my heart broken, what has gotten into you today." Dani said walking away
"If it can be broken, it means it still works, and that someone can come along and pick up the pieces." Killian whispered loud enough for Dani to hear. After a moment Dani turns around
"You dont know my past, after whats happened how do I know someone will love me for me and not for my powers that I haven't even learned yet. I'm so afraid if I allow myself to fall in love, that he's going to leave me or turn out to be a flying monkey." Dani sat down on a nearby rock
"Hey look at me, I'm sorry, but anybody would be lucky to have you in their life, your a beautiful, smart, funny woman who just after 3 days of having you in my life I can't imagine not in my life." Killian rambled not knowing why he was saying all this now.
"Killian I…
"I'm sorry I don't know why I just said that, I should go help Emma" Killian said walking away
"Killian wait." Dani said running after him" This is really fast and I don't know why I feel like if I don't do this now I won't be able to anytime soon." Dani rambled as she looked Killian in the eyes and down to his lips and slowly but gently placed her lips to his."
"Dani, Killian…What the hell." Emma yelled but froze when she saw her little sister and Hook
"Emma, is everything ok, did you find something." Dani said
"Regarding this new villain or you two." Emma said
"Emma please, don't." Dani pleaded
"Fine, but I did find an occupied abandoned farmhouse" Emma said
"Lets go check it out" Killian said
