SHOUT OUTS/ANSWERS

Winxgirl1997: Sorry it took so long.

Tablekorner (Ch 1-4): Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it. Yes, he does. I have plans for a sequel in which they're connection will be explained. Well, keep on reading and find out. Yup. Glad it's making sense now.

From: The Alien of Pluto: Just Pan and that'll be explained in a sequel I have planned since I have a different idea on who/what Pan is. You'll have to read on and see.

DISCLAIMER

Sorry it's been so long, but I've been struggling with muse for all of my stories. Vampire Diaries belongs to L.J. Smith and the CW. Once Upon A Time belongs to ABC Studios and whoever else is affiliated with the show.

"What do you mean you don't know?" David queried. How could she not know? She used magic all the time.

"I mean I don't know, Charming. I've never used light magic before," Regina responded a bit testily. If this had been the dark magic she had harnessed, she would've been able to offer up some scenarios, but she was just as confused as the others about the explosion and she didn't like it one little bit.

"Okay, then we need to sit down and discuss this. Maybe if we put our heads together, we can figure out what happened," Mary Margaret chimed in.

"That sounds like a reasonable idea," Emma stated.

"You sure you're okay?" Stefan questioned in concern. "I mean, that light was full of magic," he continued.

"I'm all right. I still had enough of your blood in my system," she assured.

"That's another thing we need to look into: why magic affects Emma in that way when it doesn't affect Henry in the least," Regina commented. But then again, he had been affected by the apple turnover she had created. "Well, I mean-" she began.

"I know what you mean," Emma responded. To be honest, she'd like to know that herself. After all, if Henry wasn't affected by magic in the same way she was-which she was grateful for of course-she wanted to know what was wrong with her and what, if anything, could be done to fix it. She needed to be at one hundred percent and she didn't want to be a liability for her family. Which she was if anyone used magic on or against her. But if anyone could figure this out, it would be Stefan. So yeah, she was going to trust him with this. Back in Mystic Falls, Damon, Elena, Matt, and Caroline stared at each other.

"What the hell just happened? It felt like an Earthquake," Matt commented.

"Only like, way worse," Caroline agreed.

"Magic. I think it was some form of magic," Damon responded, his expression worried.

"Bonnie, maybe?" Elena asked.

"No. It wasn't a witch. But it was someone very powerful," Damon responded.

"How do you know? I mean, isn't all magic the same?" Caroline asked and the older vampire shook his head.

"There are different kinds of magic: earthy magic like what Sheila taught Bonnie and requires a balance in natural, ancestral magic which requires more rituals and sacrifices and is closer to voodoo, and then there's magic that's separated into light and dark, and so on and so forth. And any person who practices or wields it leaves an aura in the air, much like a signature. What we felt-I'm not sure, but I think it was light magic at its purest form," he told them.

"How do you know all of this?" Matt wondered.

"I'm a hundred and seventy. You live a while, you tend to pick up on these sort of things," Damon responded and the others nodded. That made sense.

"So, what do we do? I mean, we have to figure out who this person is, right?" Caroline wondered.

"Yeah, I need to call Stefan, find out what's going on," Damon answered.

"Stefan. Oh gosh! I was horrible to him! He probably hates me!" Elena exclaimed and the older Salvatore shook his head.

"He's not capable of hating you," he assured her. And he wasn't. His younger brother was completely in love with the newest vampire and everyone could see it.

"I was a bitch to him. And I tried to play you guys against one another-just like Katherine," she answered.

"You're nothing like her. She doesn't care about us and never did. She loved the fact that we were vying for her affections and didn't care when we started hating each other. You, on the other hand, have always been about Stefan and never led me on or made me think that you liked me in that way. Trust me, you're nothing like Katherine," he assured her.

"But everything I did-"

"Doesn't count." Seeing that it was useless for her to argue, Elena nodded. She couldn't believe that they weren't angrier at her. She had been a total bitch to them. And yet, here they were just welcoming her back with welcome arms. They really are amazing, she thought to herself. If she didn't have her friends, she didn't know what she'd do. But she did have them and that was all that mattered. Satisfied that he had gotten his point across, Damon turned away and then dialed Stefan's phone number. Back in Storybrooke, everyone furrowed their brows in confusion when he heard Renegade by Styxx.

"What's that?" Emma queried.

"Damon," Stefan answered, pressing the "talk" button. "What's wrong?"

"You wanna tell me why the hell we felt a magic-based earthquake all the way in Virginia when you're in Maine?" Damon demanded.

"There was a battle of light versus dark magic," Stefan answered simply.

"That would do it," Damon replied. "Was it witch versus witch? 'Cause that would be hot." Stefan rolled his eyes.

"No. Not exactly. It's hard to explain."

"You okay?"

"Yes." Then, "I'm assuming you called for something else?"

"Your girlfriend's back to normal. You can thank me later." Stefan raised a brow in surprise even though he knew his brother couldn't see him. He could hear him smirking.

"What did you do?"

"Don't you worry your pretty little head about that. Now then, do you need some back up?"

"As long as you're offering, yes."

"Can you get Bonnie to do the same spell as before?"

"I'm not sure. I can ask her." Bonnie gestured for him to give her his phone and he did so.

"What is it that you want me to do?"

"Bring me and the others to you guys."

"Damon, I've only done that spell once! I don't know if I have enough power or energy to do it again!"

"What does the man want?" Regina questioned.

"Damon wants Bonnie to bring him and some others here," Stefan replied.

"That may not be possible. Storybrooke's been hidden from the outside world for twenty-eight years," Mary Margaret protested.

"Yeah and we still have no clue as to how your witch managed to bring you here," David added.

"I'm not his witch," Bonnie objected. How could this guy think that Stefan owned her?

"Easy, Bonnie. I don't think he meant it how you're thinking he meant it," Stefan interjected. At least, he hoped this guy didn't think he owned her. That was just insulting and if she put her mind to it, she could incinerate the guy with a single word. The witch then blew out a breath and then turned to the vampire.

"Let me try this, Stefan."

"Are you sure? I don't want you trying anything you're not comfortable with. It's your choice." Hearing this, Bonnie smiled. She could always count on Stefan to make sure she didn't feel pressured.

"Yeah, I'll do this. I remember the spell I used," Bonnie commented. "Will I need their blood again?"

"No, that was just a master/pet thing. A binding agent." Bonnie nodded and with that, she closed her eyes, concentrated on her friends, and then began chanting the spell she had used previously. In Mystic Falls, Damon and the others were surprised when they felt something tugging on them.

"WHOA!" they all cried. What was going on? Was this some kind of attack?

"Calm down. It's Bonnie," Damon responded. Not that he could blame them for being freaked out. It wasn't often that one felt themselves being pulled to a witch. The tugging sensation and then-Damon, Elena, and Caroline disappeared. A few moments later, the trio found themselves in a strange cottage.
