Hey everyone! So I wanted to clear something up that's been brought to my attention that I forgot about. In the beginning of chapter 4 and this chapter, it is set in season two; with the end being set in the beginning of the season that is starting in March; with the in-between before the curse. I wanted to show how Kagome got to be the way she was, and the "great mastermind" that is Elphaba; I just didn't realize how confusing it was, so I apologize.
Naraku stooped down next to Kagome's form, eyeing the way the haze shimmered across her. Rubbing his forehead he stood, reaching his hand down and connecting with her chest. Eyes shooting open, Kagome gasped and shot up, looking around wildly. Tilting his head to the side, Naraku looked at her expectantly as Kagome tried to lunge at him. "Oh good, you remember everything about me. Safe to say that all of your memories of your lover pirate are all there as well?" He asked gripping her wrist.
"The Blue Fairy told me I would never remember!" she cried. "Well, there's someone out there much more powerful than your fairy; you'll meet her later though." Naraku said pushing her to the side. "You mentioned Killian, what do you know about him?" Kagome asked softly, rubbing her wrist. "More than you I'm sure. You remember how much you loved him and the way he looked at you, swearing up and down you were his true love?" He asked suddenly.
Kagome nodded slowly, wrapping her arms around her waist tightly. "You're not the only one, come here, let me show you." He smirked guiding her into another room.
Enchanted Forrest, Pre-Curse
Killian stumbled out of his captain's quarters with squinted eyes against the sun. "Mr. Smee, where are those bottles of rum I asked for?" he asked walking up to his first mate. "Carl went to shore to go and get them, cap'n. I'll bring them to you as soon he's back." Smee sighed. "Excellent, I'm going to map our course and such." Killian announced sauntering back into his room after taking a swig from his flask.
"Mr. Smee, she's not there." Carl whispered as he climbed over the railing. "What do you mean? We need her to fix our cap'n's mood. Where'd she go?" Smee hissed. "She moved to a village down the coast. You want I should go and retrieve her?" Carl asked. Smee shook his head and ran up to the wheel, beckoning the man to follow him. "Once we dock, make sure to get everyone off the boat and find somewhere to hide. I've got a plane." Smee said as the crew hoisted the anchor.
Sailing down the coast, the crew released the anchor and filed into the dinghies, rowing to shore and headed off in the direction of the pub. "Good luck Mr. Smee." Carl said filing into one of the last dinghies. Knocking on Hook's door, Mr. Smee popped his head in and walked up to his captain; his boots propped up on his desk and leaning back in his chair dozing off and not realizing the distance they just covered. "Cap'n I'm going ashore to help Carl with all the rum he bought you. Why don't you go make yourself comfy in your bed." He suggested. Slamming his chair legs on the floor, the pirate captain walked to his room, discarding his shirt on the floor as he went.
Mr. Smee walked around the village, pushing his red cap further up his head as the sun was almost finished with its decent across the sky. "You there, I'm looking for someone." He said stepping in a woman's way. The woman looked at him apprehensively, hoping he'd be smart enough to not try anything with all of the people around. "Relax, I mean you no harm. I'm looking for a woman named Kagome; she's got black hair, gray eyes, about ye high-" "Oh! I bought this dress from her just this morning! I last saw her not five minutes ago gathering more fabrics from Yvette's shop." She said excitedly, pointing behind her at the building. "Much obliged madam." Smee said before rushing off.
Bursting into the building, he cleared his throat at the startled faces of Kagome and the clerk, straightening his shirt. "Mr. Smee, is everything okay?" Kagome asked slowly. "It's me captain, his infection is back." He said. Kagome sucked in a deep breath and turned to the woman at the counter. "Can I persuade you to hold onto these for me for a few days, Yvette?" she asked. "Of course, be careful, you can't trust them pirates." She said whispering the last part.
Kagome giggled and followed the older man, her skirts swishing around her feet. "When did his infection come back? I saw him three days ago and he was all gung ho about going to Neverland." She said as they walked out of the village. "Oh, it was sudden, very sudden; we're lucky we managed to dock at this village's port to find you and were not out to sea." He mumbled rubbing his neck. "Okay, well, since its dark I'm going to need some supplies so do you think you could send some guys to go pick some Boneset as well as sending some guys to my cottage. Be warned, if anything is missing from my house I will kill all of you." Kagome said deadpanned.
"Sure, whatever you say. I'll make sure I disperse the crew to do your bidding. We need our Capt'n well, so we're going to make sure we're all quiet like." He said guiding her into the dinghy and rowing to the Jolly Roger. "Why didn't you guys dock closer?" she asked. "People don't take to kindly to pirates docking at their ports." Smee mumbled grabbing onto the rope ladder and climbing up. 'Fair enough.' She thought climbing the ladder and hoisting herself over the railing.
Kagome glanced around the empty ship smoothing her hair down from the wind. "So, where is everybody?" she asked. "Waitin' on the shore. They're going to wait till you give the all clear, and I'll have some boys dispense to go get your things you need. He's in his capt'n quarters." Smee pointed. "Thank you, and be careful out there, it's dangerous in those woods this time of night." Kagome said before making he way to the double doors.
Feeling Smee's hand on her back, she squealed when he shoved her into the room, closing and locking the doors behind her. "You two need to resolve your problems, he's been downright unpleasant since you left. I'll be back around breakfast." He called through the door. Hearing his footsteps walk away, she growled before turning to eye Killian's bedroom. Stepping closer to the door, she bit her lip and pushed it open partially. "Hey, Killian." She called.
The pirate captain mumbled in his sleep and rolled over, the blanket falling to expose his naked chest. 'Oh gosh.' She thought staring at the exposed flesh. "Captain Jones." She called, raising her voice a little higher than the previous call. Killian's eyes cracked open, shut, and opened again with a yawn. Kagome backed up, and sat down at his desk, allowing her head to fall in her hands. Pressing the heels of her palms into her eyes, she finally lifted them when she heard his bedroom door creak open.
"What the blazes are you doing here, love? Changed your mind?" Killian asked from the doorway. "No, I haven't. I was under the impression from Mr. Smee that your infection came back so I came to re-treat you so you could sail on your merry way and he locked us in here together until tomorrow morning because you've been in a horrible mood since we last spoke." Kagome explained. Killian blew out a deep breath and shook his head, rubbing the back of it with his right hand.
Kagome looked at the bare chested man in front of her over her folded hands and sighed. "You can go back to bed, sorry for waking you." She said waving her hand in his direction. "And what do you plan on doing?" Killian responded folding his arms over his chest. "Sit here until tomorrow." She answered. "No, you take my bed and I'll sit there until tomorrow. You look exhausted." He said walking around the desk to squat next to her chair. "I've been busy. I started selling my dresses to the villagers, they love them and keep asking me to make more." She smiled.
A smile broke out on the pirates face as he laid his hands on her knees. "That's fantastic." He said. Kagome returned his smile, meeting his eyes. "I still think you should come with us." He whispered. Kagome shook her head and removed his hands, "I can't, I'm finally where I want to be with everything." She said standing. "I want you to stop lying, I know you can feel the same thing I do between us. We are the ones for each other, so stop fighting it." He growled. Grabbing her wrist, he spun her around and pulled her against his chest. "Stay with me." He said. Moving to rip her arm from his grip, Killian tightened his fist and claimed her lips.
Enchanted Forest, Present Day
Belle held her cloak around her tighter, peering around the tree she hid behind as she waited patiently. Pulse quickening, she moved from her hiding spot and walked up carefully to the figure ahead of her, wringing her hands together. "Kagome ." she softly called. Kagome turned, her eyebrow arching as Ruby stopped in front of her a little awkwardly. "I don't know if I should give you a hug or not." Belle said sadly. "I'd prefer it if you didn't." Kagome replied. Feeling a sting in her heart her friend nodded and took in the woman in front of her.
Her gray eyes were infused with pale blue, no longer playful; they were hard and angry. The ice purple mermaid dress she wore allowing people to see the new her, not the sweet woman that was in love when they first met. "Why are you here?" she asked as her side swept hair blew in the wind softly. "Because, I can't stand seeing you like this." Belle stated.
Kagome cocked her head to the side, feigning surprise on her face. "I have no idea what you're implying." She said. "You're so vengeful and for nothing. Hook hasn't done a thing, so I can't see why you're so determined to destroy him; and Emma." Ruby said. "Nothing?! Have you forgotten that he's the reason that Henry was taken to Neverland? And don't get me started on everything he's done to me." Kagome hissed.
Gripping Kagome's hands in hers Belle shook her head; her soft curls dancing in the wind. "He's been so torn up about what he's done to you, and wants to apologize." She said. Kagome snatched her hands back flicking her wrist and sending the other girl flying. "I don't want to hear anything that man has to say, you make sure to let all of them know that even their savior Emma can't stop me; and as soon as they come back from their world, it's over." Kagome hissed. Spinning on her heel, she walked towards the castle, Belle scrambling to her feet behind her.
"I've already lost Rumple! Please, I can't loose you too, you're my best friend." Belle sobbed. "You're wasting your time, she's been gone; you have Hook to thank." Kagome said leaving the distraught girl.
