The Woods
Pan kneeled at his bounded Lost Boys, "well well what do we have here?", Felix struggled to get free, Pan merely waved his hand and the roots shattered freeing them, "This is the 2nd time you've failed me Felix"
"It's the Knight I told you about…he's to powerful"
Pan grabbed his by the throat "now now don't lose your nerve Felix, I will win, I always win"
"P…Peter Pan never fails" Pan released him,
"ever doubt my power again and I'll destroy you"
"Pan…look" Felix's shaky finger touched a new grey streak of hair,
Pan touched it and looked at Felix's "assemble all the lost boys, we need a diversion while I prepare Henry"
The Forgotten One's Camp
August approached the large group of boys, with Rufio right behind him, "come on guys we can't miss this" the Forgotten Ones followed behind the two men, and approached the middle of the camp
Bae stood in the center, with his father behind him and Emma right next to him holding his hand
" well 'ahem' I not big on speeches, so I just say a few words, Pan has my son, my son's heart can harness the full power of neverland, Pan wants to take it, unless we stop him, now knowing Pan as well as we all do, we know he won't be working alone, he'll send his Lost Boys to distract us while he takes my son's heart"
Rufio approached in front of Bae, "that's why we'll have to pull out all the stops, we're going to attack the Lost Boys, while Bae and Rumplestilskin attack Pan, and save Henry"
The Forgotten One's began hooting and hollering in excitement for this final war, Bae drew his cutlass and rose it in the air
Pan's Camp
Pan watched as Felix got the troops in line, Pan had carefully planned out his moves, as his Lost Boys killed the others Pan would take Henry to skull rock and remove his heart, then he would capture Rumple's shadow steal the dagger and kill the pathetic worm once and for all
"When Do We Leave?"
The Shadow hovered above, "now" the Shadow touched Pan's hand and was sucked into him,
"Time To Begin"
Pan approached the tent and found Henry still curled in a ball, but fast asleep, he picked the boy up and flew off
The Forgotten Ones Camp
"Do you have everything Bae?" Gold examined Bae's backpack, he had his Cutlass, a bow and arrow, each laced with squid ink, no way Pan could stop them now, "Yeah Papa, let's get going"
"Bae wait" Emma ran over, she hugged him close, "Just incase something happens I…."
"I love you to Emma, and I swear I'll bring Henry back to you as soon as I can", August approached them, Bae shook his hand
"Watch her for me bud"
"Of course"
The father and son turned away from the camp and headed toward Skull Rock
The Beach
Gold looked at the figure flying toward Skull Rock, "we'll never be able to make it there in time….unless"
"Unless wa…." Gold grabbed his son and the duo vanished in a large puff of smoke
Skull Rock
Henry shook awake and saw Pan turned toward a giant hourglass, the sand was barely visible anymore, Pan's hair was almost completely grey, Henry noticed his skin was sagging and wrinkling,
The Shadow appeared from behind him, "You know what you have to do?"
"Of course I do, " Pan's hand was engulfed in a red glow and slowly approached the unconscious boy,
"STOP!" the purple smoke dissipated and Gold and Bae stood ready for action
"Ahh father and son reunite to save the boy, looks like I'm going to lose….unless"
"Unless what?"
"Unless I have this!" he waved his hand and Gold's dagger appeared in it, "Unless I have the Dark One's Dagger….no sit!"
Gold fell to the ground, engulfed in a blue aura, Pan snickered, and looked up to see Bae holding a bow to his head "Let my father go or else"
Pan smirked, "Oh you don't understand Bae, I'm going to offer you a deal"
"What is it?"
"Well I'm going to take Henry's heart, and he will die, but I can offer you a chance to save him"
"How can I do that?"
"You kill your father with this dagger, I will give Henry a new heart so he can live…." suddenly the dagger appeared in Bae's hand
The dagger looked just as it did long ago, his father's name still etched into the blade,
250 Years Ago
Rumple had just finished another bale of wool, he finally had enough to sell, "Bae come on boy!", the door opened from there cottage Bae came out holding the measuring cane his father used to keep track of how tall he was getting, "Let's go Papa!"
"Bae what are you doing?…but that away"
"But….But I just wanna be like you"
"No Bae you don't, not like this, I'm a coward"
Bae dropped the stick and followed his father
Now
Bae approached his father with the dagger, "Papa I…"
Gold looked in his sons eyes "I know Bae…I Love You Son"
Bae swung his arm back, Pan cackled waiting to watch Gold's body drop, suddenly Pan himself dropped as the dagger pierced his chest
The Forgotten One's Camp
Felix and the other Lost Boys rushed the camp, as soon as they made it to the center then all notice the emptiness of the camp
"NOW!" the arrows rained from the sky and onto the lost boys, Felix and half of the lost boys pulled themselves back up and faced the now approaching Forgotten Ones, the two groups battled each other tooth and nail,
August slashed at each of the Lost Boys, he felt a rush he never felt before, then in the blink of an eye he felt a piercing pain in his side,
He fell to the ground as the black veins grew from the wound, he could fell his lungs collapsing, Felix's kicked him onto his back, "Where's the girl?"
"She's h. heading to the springs…she's trying to make a portal for us to escape….I can bring you to her"
Felix smirked and motioned for the lost boys to pick August up, he was traitor, he betrayed the ones he loved he made a evil decision, he smiled as he saw his wound close off as it turned to wood,
Suckers
The Springs
Emma looked in front of the Dreamshade veins in front of the springs, she remembered the spell Mister Gold had shown her
She thought of the one moment in her life she was truly angry, when Pan had taken Henry, when he made her and Bae forget about him
She suddenly saw the Dreamshade burn as she started calming down, Wendy ran behind her
They had succeeded Emma saw the stream, the water seemed to glow
She heard laughing and saw the purple cloud approach her, Gold carried the unconscious Henry in his arms, as Bae carried the dagger
"Bae did it!…he defeated Pan, and we've saved Henry"
"how?"
Bae traded the dagger to his father for his son, "Pan was getting weaker, wasn't fast enough to notice a dagger going into him"
"He's dead"
"Yeah…Emma I had to"
"no I understand it's just, I fell so free now, we did it Bae, Pan will never bother us again, now we just need to find August"
"Right here" Felix dropped the wooden man in front of them, "He sold you out"
"Or did he?"
Felix was shot by a blast of magic and sent hurtling to the ground as Rufio approached them, "What are you all waiting for fix the bean go home"
"alright" Emma smiled and pulled out the dried out bean,
Skull Rock
Pan started pulling himself toward the hour glass, ""I Warned You, Your Staying here has drained Neverlands magic"
"N…No" he touched the glass, as the final grain of sand dropped.
A big wave of green energy blasted out of the hour glass
The Forgotten One's Camp
Each side fought with everything they had, if they weren't so caught in there fighting, they would have seen the green wave of energy, once it hit them they were reduced into nothing but dust
The Springs
Felix slowly got up, he held his knife, none of them noticed him, "ARRGH!" he went to stab at Emma, but the wave of energy struck into both him and Rufio
"NO!" Rufio fell to the ground as Bae and Rumple kneeled close to him, Gold held his now glowing purple hand over Rufio
" n….'cough' no it's to late, I'm dying…b…Bae….Y…You Know what I Wish?"
"What?" Bae was holding back tears as his friend laid dying
"I Wish I Had A Dad Like You", Rufio finally turned to dust,
Emma dropped the dried bean into the spring, suddenly the swirling green vortex appeared in the water
"Bae….we're ready"
Bae looked around, no sign of Felix, he probably died from the blast, no use worrying about it, "Y…Yeah I'm ready Emma"
The six of them jumped through the vortex leaving the land behind them forever
The Darling Apartment
Michael awoke to a rush of wind, something was happening, Pan's voice had gone silent, ever since he had freed them from Neverland, his voice had never stopped echoing in Michael's head, now it was gone
He grabbed his red coat and ran downstairs "JOHN!…Get Up We Must go!"
The Swan Residence
The two brothers ran next door to the house and saw the backyard's ground begin cracking as a green vortex opened, "do you…..do you think they did it?…do you think they have Wendy?"
John was holding a gun in his hand, he wasn't taking the chance, if Pan emerged he would be powerless, and the brothers could kill him
Bae flew out of the vortex holding Henry close to him, Emma was the second to fly out, followed by August and Gold, then finally Wendy
The two brothers were shocked to see there sister, they hadn't seen her in years, they had done it they had saved Wendy from Pan's wrath
"Wendy?"
The girl stared at the two men in utter confusion, then suddenly recognized them
"John?….Michael?" they smiled as there sister ran over to them, "It is you!"
"Yes Wendy it's us"
Bae and Emma looked on each holding Henry's hand, happy they could reunite both there family and the Darlings
"ARRGH!" all of them turned to Gold laying on the ground screaming in agony and grabbing his leg,
"Papa!" He elevated his father's body, "what's wrong…what happened!?"
"there's n…no magic….my leg isn't healed anymore"
"August help me get him into the bug, we're taking you to the hospital"
The two men picked him up, "N…No…it'll settle, me just need to get home….back to Storybrook"
That Night
Emma stood at the stove carefully cooking the pasta, this would be her final meal her or Henry ever ate in there home,
Bae and August carefully packed up the upstairs room, August looked around the child's room, and carefully prod the question "So?"
"So what?" Bae finished packing Henry's clothes in a large duffel bag,
"What's it like?….Storybrook I mean"
"small town, everyone kinda walks around in a fog, perfect place to hang low"
"till we break the curse and they all wake up"
"yeah"
Henry slowly walked over to Mister Gold, he was curled in the large chair, the pain was mind numbing, "Here" Henry offered him a small bottle, Gold's shaky hands grabbed the small bottle, he inspected it, it contained a gold shiny liquid
"What is it?"
"It'll make your leg better"
Gold ripped the cork off the bottle and drank the liquid, Henry smiled as Gold's leg was engulfed in a gold flash of light
His eyes widened as he felt the muscle's in his leg unwrapped over the destroyed bones in his leg, the pieces reformed and the muscle properly aligned itself, his leg was healed, "H…How did you do that?'
Henry had a wide dopey smile, "I just wanted it and…." suddenly another potion appeared in his hands, Gold was astounded, Henry was truly coming into his powers
Emma came into the room, "Dinner t….um Mister Gold are you okay?"
"oh…oh yes my dear I'm okay" he offered her a smile, she could see something was very different
The Dinner Table
The 3 men scarfed down the pasta, Henry greedily ate his small bowl, as Emma slowly ate "So I Was thinking….how is all of this gonna work, do I just go to Storybrook and that's it?"
Gold picked up his water and took a sip, "no Miss Swan, to break the curse we need a burst of True Love, and as luck would have it I had bottled some before the curse was cast"
"Really Papa, where is it?"
Gold hid a amused smile "well there in lies a problem, it's not where it is, but how we get it"
Emma letting out a shaky gulp, Gold merely winked at Henry and went back to his pasta
The Swan Residence-The Next Day
Bae loaded the final box into the trunk of his bug, "Wow this is really all you guys got?"
"I only packed important things"
Gold buckled Henry into the car seat, then Gold himself sat into the back seat, Bae hopped into the drivers seat, Emma ran over to the darling house as the brothers were finishing there own packing,
"Where you guys going now?"
John smiled and readjusted his glasses "I think it's high time that Darlings go back home"
"heading to a airport?" August approached holding a duffle bag "Got room for one more?"
"Of course"
"Great you can drop me off at my apartment"
"Wait August aren't you coming with us to Storybook?"
"I'll meet you there, I need to get my stuff"
Emma hugged August "see you there Pinocchio"
"Yeah, Take it easy Savior"
August hopped in the backseat of the Darlings car, as Emma turned to the bug, she got in and kissed Bae on the cheek, "Let's go to Storybrook"
Storybrook Maine
The yellow bug slowly pulled into the town, Gold looked out the window, "My shops just to the left"
"Yeah I know, robbed it before"
"You what!?"
Bae smirked and pulled right in front of the shop, Gold opened the back door, and approached the door, Emma, Bae and Henry followed quickly behind, Gold went behind the counter and pulled out a large thing wooden box
"What is Mister Gold?"
Gold opened it up revealing the sword, "This is your father's sword, and how your going to slay the Dragon and get my potion"
"I..I can't do this….at least not alone" she smiled at Bae as he drew his cutlass
"You won't have to"
"You'll need my help lowering both of you into the cavern, Regina's elevator is a two man job, don't worry I'll take care of Henry"
Emma grabbed the sword, "Well 'Gulp' Let's Go Slay A Dragon"
The Library
Emma and Bae stood in the elevator as it slowly descended into the cavern, the doors opened and the two stepped into the dark cavern
RAWR
The Dragon's roar echoed through the cavern, both took a few steps back as they saw the emerald green eyes staring down at them
"Bae…"
"Yeah Let's Run" the two ran from the black dragon as it spread it's wings and started flapping it's wings sending a shock wave at the duo causing them to fly into the walls disarming them both,
Bae slowly got up and picked up his cutlass, "I got a plan, wait for my signal" Bae ran toward the dragon, and vanished in the barrage of flames the Dragon had released"
"N….No Bae!" Emma picked up the sword and ran toward the dragon, no matter what fear she felt, she hate3d this beast much more,
"HEYAHH!" She stabbed the dragon's foot, causing it to screech, the dragon's hand scooped the ground Emma was on sending her flying back,
"N…no" she held out her hand trying to reach her sword, suddenly the blade started shaking and suddenly ripped out of the dragon's foot and in front of Emma
She grabbed the blade and slowly pulled herself up,
She looked up, and saw a figure on top of the dragon's head, Bae stood on top of this beast, the cutlass still in hand, "Emma THIS IS THE SIGNAL!" he stabbed the cutlass into the dragon's head then jumped off the beast's head
Emma charged toward the dragon, sword in hand and flung the blade
The sword started dropping, Emma held out her hand, it straightened out and stabbed right into it's chest
The dragon's entire body ignited and erupted into dust, with the gold egg in the dust, Emma picked it up
"Really an egg?…my father put the potion in an egg?"
"doesn't matter, let's just get this all over with"
Bae approached his cutlass, and placed it back into the sheath
The duo approached the elevator, Bae looked up the hole, "HEY PAPA WE'RE READY!"
Suddenly the elevator door opened, the duo hopped into the elevator and both took a few deep breath as they were pulled back up
The Well
Emma and Bae slowly approached the well, "so I just drop this into the well and it'll break the curse?"
"That's what my father said….but first…." Bae got down of his knee and opened the small black box from his pocket
"Emma Swan, will you marry me?"
"BAE!" Emma dropped the potion down the well and kissed Bae, a whooshing wind spread through the forest, now followed by the purple smoke approaching the town
Mister Gold's Shop
Regina stormed into Mister Gold's shop, the man was standing in front of his register, "Hello there Madame Mayor, what can I do for you this fine day?"
"stranger were found coming into town, two teens and a little boy, do you know anything about that?"
Gold smirked, "a matter of fact I do, the man is my son Baelfire and the girl…heh the girl is the Savior"
Regina had a look of pure terror in her eyes "N..No that's not possible, she….god no she escaped the curse!"
"Yes and right now, she and my son are taking a bottle of true love that I had bottled before the curse, to the well to break this cur…."
Both were hit with the whooshing wind, Gold started laughing "Looks like they succeeded, people will begin waking up now, I'd run Regina, I'd run as fast as I can"
The purple smoke filled the shop, both Regina and Gold's eyes glowed purple
"Y…You've brought magic?"
"Indeed I have, to bad you can't do this" he waved his hand and Regina was petrified
"W…Why isn't my magic working Gold?"
"it's been years since you've used magic, you can't get it to work anymore, you would need this" he rotated his hand and a silver book appeared in it"
"M..My mother's magic book?…please give it to me"
"oh but what do you have for me?…I have magic now, nothing you can give me that I can't conjure for myself"
"W…What about. Your Belle?"
Gold turned away with a sneer, "she's dead Regina, no magic can bring back the dead"
"It can if she was never dead"
"what are you talking about?"
"I've been keeping her locked up here in Storybrook"
"Where!?"
Regina smirked "You Give Me The Book, and I'll give you Belle's location"
Gold handed over the book and freed Regina of her bounds
"Now Where Is She?"
The Well
Emma looked at her ring, it had a sparkling white gem, Bae smiled as Emma stared at the ring, "Uh Emma don't wanna ruin the mood, but we should probably find your folks"
"Oh….OH Yeah let's go!"
Storybrook Hospital-Basement
Gold nearly ran down the stairs of the hospital, and found the only patient room of the asylum with no name
He waved his hand and the door melted away into purple smoke
"BELLE!"
Belle slowly approached him from the dark room, her hair was messy and covering her feet, she had no shoes and her feet were covered in dirt, "Rumple?"
"Belle, I…I'm sorry, I love you and I…"
Belle stopped him with a kiss, they were finally reunited, Gold had everything he could ever want, Bae, Belle, a family
He broke off the kiss, "We'll have time for all this later, let's go home, you've spent enough time in these rags
Storybrook Hospital-Coma Ward
"and they lived happily ever after" the short dark hair women read to the unconscious man, suddenly a whooshing hit them, the women had to process the sudden overflow of memories
She looked at the unconscious man, "Charming?"
"Mom?" Snow White turned around and saw Emma and Bae standing in the door way, Snow looked at the brilliant blue eyes she had only glimpsed 18 years prior, her crying baby was now looking Snow in the eyes, strong confident and with her love standing by her side
"Emma!" Snow ran over and hugged her daughter, "You found us!"
"Y…Yeah Mom, I Did" Snow squeezed her again, then looked at Bae, "And who is this handsome man?"
Bae blushed and rubbed the back of his head, "Baelfire ma'am, my names Baelfire"
"well pleased to meet you Baelfir…oh god Charming!" she ran over to the still unconscious man, and suddenly the entire room was filling with purple smoke, Snow kissed her husband and held him as the smoke engulfed them
Mister Gold's Shop
Gold leaned against his counter, they were late, the plan was break the curse and meet back at the shop
"Rumple?" Gold looked up and saw Belle standing in a beautiful red dress with a black sweater, "How…How Do I look"
"You look Beautiful Belle, and I…"
"Grandpa?" Henry walked out of the back room, rubbing his eyes and pulling his doll on the floor,
"Oh who is this?" Belle smiled and kneeled next to the boy
"My names Henry, my momma said I'm notta pose to talk to strangers"
"well Henry my names Belle"
Henry looked at Gold then Belle, "are you Grandpa's girlfriend?"
She blushed and smiled, "I guess I am"
"ew cooties!" Henry grabbed his doll and ran away from Belle
Belle smirked and turned to Gold "so you're a grandfather now?…you found your son?"
"Yes, I found him after all these years, and I've found you"
Bae ran into the building "Papa you need to get to city hall fast!"
Gold turned to his son, "Why Bae?"
"Emma's folks called a emergency meeting everyone needs to come, it's a emergency…oh hello" he turned to Belle
Gold pointed to Bae then Belle "Baelfire Belle, Belle Baelfire"
"Please to meet you Baelfire" she curtsied, and Bae bowed,
"You can just call me Bae"
Town Hall
Charming and Snow stood in front of the crow of angry and confused citizen
"Everyone Everyone can we please have your attention!" Charming was drowned out by the roaring screams of the people, suddenly a man clad in a sheriff's uniform stood in front of the mike
"EVERYONE QUIET!" the yelling quieted and everyone sat in the seat, Graham slowly bowed to Snow "Your majesty"
he sat on the chair behind them, Snow took the mike "Everyone I know your scared, and there's been allot of chaos looking for our love ones but we urge you to keep calm, we are turning town hall into a crisis center, we urge you to register with myself, Charming, Emma and her Baelfire, we will help find your love ones"
Everyone stood up and started clapping for the Savior and the rest of the Charmings
The Next Morning
Bae sat inside Granny;s diner, he and Emma hadn't seen each other all yesterday, but the benefit was they were able to reunite the towns people with there love ones,
The door of the diner swung open and August came in, with his helmet tucked under his arm, "I've been lookin for you Bae"
August sat across from the barely conscious Baelfire, "Hey august"
"Glade I'm Back?"
"Sure, Sure, what's up?"
"Well heard you and Emma are doing the crisis center, helping people find there lost love ones, and I was thinking I could use your help"
Bae groaned and pulled out the backpack, he carefully looked through the beige folder, "hmm, looks like there are a few men who aren't accounted for, a Doctor Archie Hopper, a Mister Marcos …..god I can't even pronounce that"
"are either of them my dad?"
"Yeah Marco seems to be your best bet, no can you scram, I'm meeting Emma here"
"Sure thanks bud" August jokingly kissed Bae on the cheek "You're my big stwong hewo"
August left as Bae through the napkin dispenser at him
The Office Of Archie Hopper
Marco sat back in the seat as Archie poured him a drink, "Don't worry Marco we'll find him, it might take a while but we'll find Pinocchio"
KNOCK KNOCK
"Uh Doctor Hopper?"
Archie turned to the man, "Uh yes do you have a appointment?"
"Uh no, I was given this address, I was wondering if you ….. Papa?" August smiled a she saw the old man's eyes go wide
"Pinocchio…My BOY!"
Marco hugged his son, close then motioned to Jiminy to join in
Granny's
Emma slowly walked into the diner, and smiled at Bae, he noticed her eyes were puffy, she had been crying
He ran behind her and pulled her seat out for her, "Emma what's wrong?"
"I…I got a job offer today, from Graham, you're looking at the new Deputy of Storybrook"
"That's great…but why are you crying?"
"It's positive Bae"
"What is?"
"I'm pregnant"
Bae looked shocked, he barely blinked, then suddenly his face started spasming until he jumped up and screamed
"Em we're having another baby!?"
"Yea"
"Oh my god this is wonderful…I'm so excited!"
He lifted Emma out of her seat and spun her, "Your not angry?"
"of course not, I'm so happy, our families finally together, and growing" he held his hand to Emma's stomach
