I went to pay Ms Swan a visit after the time ended in the "Talent room" as we called it.
"Hi Ms Swan, do you mind if I have a word with you?" I asked as she answered her door.
"Saphira? Come in." she invited me into the house she shares with her parents, Prince Charming and Snow white also known as Davis and Mary-Margaret.
"Thanks. Hi Mr and Mrs Charming" I greeted, noticing them on the sofa with baby Neil.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Emma asked. I let out another burst of light magic from my palm and looked at her.
"Father told me that I would possess Dark magic, after my real father, Rumpelstiltskin." Everyone looked at me with surprise.
"I never knew you possessed magic." whispered Snow, slowing walking towards me.
"No-one does. Father told me I had to hide my powers because of the bad reputation Rumple has with magic"
"So why did you come to see me?" asked Emma.
"Well, my sister Aimee said that you possess the same kind of magic. I was wondering if you would help me."
"The only thing I can think of for answers, Saphira, is to see Mr Gold," David mentioned after setting baby Neil down in his crib.
"But I haven't seen him since I was a baby" I must have had a worried look on my face because Emma told me not to worry as she'll be coming with me.
15 minutes later I found myself outside of Mr Gold's shop. I hadn't seen my real father after I was given to Killian so I was really scared.
"Gold, I need a word!" shouted Emma as she entered the shop. I followed slowly carefully looking around the shop.
"What is it now, Ms Swan?" asked a man coming out from the back room. He stopped in his tracks as he noticed me.
"So, who have you brought with you now Ms Swan?" he asked, knowing the answer.
"My name is Saphira. I was wondering if you could help me." I explained.
He led us both into the back room where a young woman was sitting.
"If you need answers, I'll try and give them to you. Please take a seat." he said.
"As I explained before, I need you to give me some answers. My name is Saphira, and I'm your daughter. You have dark magic, I have light magic. I don't understand how."
"You possess magic?" asked the woman, who was introduced as Belle, my father's new Wife.
I, for the third time today, let out a display of light magic. My father and Belle looked at me with surprise.
"Rumple, you have to tell her," Belle said with a thick Australian accent
"Tell me what?"
"Did Killian tell you that Milah was your mother?" I nodded. "I'm afraid she's not your mother. Belle is. You we're conceived around the time Belle and I first got together. I'm so sorry Saphira." I had tears rolling down my eyes. It all made sense. "Milah is the mother of Aimee and Becci."
Belle came over to me.
"Will you take a walk with me Saphira?" I nodded, wiping tears from my eyes.
Belle took me to the library where she works. I followed her in and she locked the door so that we weren't interrupted.
"Saphira, I'm so sorry." She looked away from me. "We should have found you and told you sooner. Rumple told Killian that you were the daughter of Milah so that he would take you in. I'm so sorry" I noticed a tear rolling down the cheek. I moved closer to her and embraced her into a hug.
"It's fine. I always had inkling that I wasn't related to Milah." I let her go and walked towards the fantasy section. "You see, I have this picture of her and I keep comparing myself to her. I have to facial features that are the same. However, when I look at you, I notice some similarities. For instance our hair and the way we dress." I had noticed, back at the shop, that belle and I both had medium length, wavy brown hair. I also noticed that we have similar dress sense. I was wearing a gold dress that went to my knees. Belle was wearing something similar except hers was blue.
"We do, don't we? I would like to get to know you a little better. Why don't I take you out for tea tonight?" she asked with a smile on her face.
"Only if I can borrow this book." I replied. She laughed and took my book to the desk to scan it. "What time?"
"7 o'clock. Just me and you" I smiled.
