Last chapter about Lara and Tink talking. I promise. Enjoy!
The New Dark One - Chapter 5
Lara explained her plan to Tinkerbell. It involved and awful lot of extremely advanced magic. Only a very accomplished witch would be able to do it, the fairy herself couldn't comprehend half of it.
"I'm not sure that can be done, sweetheart. Otherwise people would've already tried it. O will try it. This time travel thing is giving me a headache".
"Trust me, it can be done. Having both dark and light magic makes me a very powerful witch. Even stronger than my mother or my grandmother Cora" said Lara with with determination, and maybe a little too sure of herself (Tinkerbell couldn't decide from which of her parents she got that from. Probably both).
"Then what do you need me for?'
"First, I need a place to stay. I could only gather enough money for a day or two at the bed & breakfast." Tinkerbell laughed a little at that.
"Second, I need you to distract my mom so I can get some things I need from her vault"
"That is gonna be a problem." the fairy quickly interrupted "Regina and I aren't exactly in the best of terms right now. She blames me for using the pixie dust and leading her to Robin Hood. In her mind, I'm just as responsible for her heart ache as he is"
"I don't care about that. You're just gonna have to find a way to talk to her and get over your issues. Which leads to the third reason why I'm here. I know mom is no the most easygoing person in the world and that she has a hard time forgiving people, but she needs her friend, even if she says she doesn't. Especially right now. I can't go talk to her, for obvious reasons, but she shouldn't have to go trough this alone" the fairy wiped away a tear "You don't give up on the people you love, even when they are mad at you and specially not when they are hurt".
The two of them were silent for a moment after Lara finished her speech.
"Let's say I were to do this, I don't even know what to say to her. I mean, this isn't exactly something that happens everyday. What advice can you give in a situation like this?" Lara smirked, she had successfully convinced the fairy to help her.
"You don't have to say anything. Just promise you'll be there for her. Show her there are still people who care about her and are worried about her wellbeing".
"Fine. I'll do it. Even if it means she'll throw a fireball at me" the blond half-joked.
"She won't" replied the brunette, seriously.
"So, when do you want do do this?"
"Right now, if you're up to it. The sooner the better"
"Right now?!" she swallowed "Fine, just give me a few minutes decide what I'm going to say. Maybe we can take your things to my place while I do it"
"Oh, thank you, Auntie Tink!" Lara stood up and spontaneously hugged the woman who sat across form her. Tinkerbell didn't have the heart to correct her about the nickname this time. There was something so genuine about the girl's affection that just warmed her heart. They must be very close in the future, she thought.
The fourteen-year-old grabbed her bag and the two of them exited Granny's together. The girl already knew where they were going and led the way, she probably had been to the fairy's place several times.
Next chapter is gonna be Tinkerbell talking to Regina. We'll see how that goes... hahaha I will probably upload it later today, if everything turns out alright. I just wanted to say I never intended this story to be action packed or too complex. It has always been about the characters and their interactions, the time travel thing was just something I came up with to tie it all together. I hope it isn't too OOC. Thank you for the follows, favorites and reviews! XOXO
Ps. I'll explain Lara's plan better soon.
