Chapter 20

(Neal and Rumplestiltskin hug)

Neal: I thought I'd never see you again

Rumplestiltskin: I know son, I know and I am so sorry for everything I did.

(Belle comes forward)

Neal: And who are you?

Belle: I'm Belle, and you must be Baelfire.

Neal: Well I kind of go by Neal now but yeah, how did the both of you get here, travel between lands is nearly impossible isn't it?

Rumplestiltskin: That's where it gets complicated.

(In Neal's apartment)

Rumplestiltskin: This is where you live?

Neal: It's all I can afford at the minute, so tell me this complicated story.

Rumplestiltskin: Basically Queen Regina transported everyone by curse to a land without magic - this one to take away everyone's happy endings and so that they wouldn't remember who they truly were.

Neal: And where was this place?

Belle: It's a little town called Storybrooke in Maine.

Neal: Of course, it had to be didn't it

Rumplestiltskin: I don't understand

Neal: Well I've got my own complicated story. I once knew someone from Storybrooke, about 10/11 years ago. She was the love of my life and I did something horrible to her that I have never forgiven myself for.

Rumplestiltskin: By any chance was her name Emma Swan?

Neal: You know her!

Rumplestiltskin: You could say that

Belle: It's Emma who broke the curse and gave everyone back their memories

Rumplestiltskin: You say you knew her about 11 years ago.

Neal: Yeah, why?

Rumplestiltskin: This means that Henry is ... oh my god.

Belle: Of course, oh Rumple.

Neal: What are you two on about?

Rumplestiltskin: That horrible thing you did to Emma, was that not bailing her out of prison?

Neal: Yes, why?

Rumplestiltskin: She was pregnant

Neal: What!

Rumplestiltskin: You have a son and I have a grandson.

Neal: What's his name?

Belle: Henry, his name is Henry.

Neal: Can you take me to Storybrooke?

Rumplestiltskin: I thought you'd never ask

(In Storybrooke Rumplestiltskin, Belle and Neal get out of the car)

Rumplestiltskin: Welcome to Storybrooke

(Emma and Henry come out of a shop just a little ahead of them)

Emma: Neal!

Neal: Hello Emma
