Own Nothing.

Finished.

Hermione walked into Mr. Gold's store and stare at him. "This curse needs to end." She told him.

He looked over his shoulder at her with a smile. "And so it shall Hermione. But you cannot interfere." He turned around fully and looked at her. "I am sorry about the boy."

"He isn't apart of the curse." Hermione stepped forward. "Let him go."

Mr. Gold smirked. "Now I can't do that, you know that's true."

Hermione growled. "Can't? Or you won't?"

"He was placed under the sleeping curse by someone else, I cannot cross someone else's magic."

Hermione sighed and stepped back. "I know. When this ends, and this will, he better wake up."

"Is that a threat I hear Hermione?" Mr. Gold asked, stepping around the counter towards her. "Because it isn't nice for friends to threaten one another."

Hermione stared, more of a glare at him. "Understand this Mr. Gold our friendship ends if he doesn't wake up. I have been more than lenient on your part, allowing…"

"Allowing?" He asked her, curious.

"Allowing you to use your magic while others are restricted to basic forms of it was wrong of me." Hermione glared at him. "But this ends now."

Mr. Gold smirked. "Remember Hermione, the simplicity of Love verses the complications of friendship."

Hermione stared at him before she walked out of the store and across the street. She sat on the bench, needing to breath, taking deep breaths as she tried to calm down.

She saw Emma and Regina rush to Mr. Gold's store and she knew they were going to him for help. She shook her head and looked away, no the end was getting closer and she knew that there would be no great battle, no selfless sacrificed. Curses this dark don't need all the bells and whistles.

She stood up and continued to walk down the street, ignoring everyone's stares as she cried openly. She wondered what this town would be like after the curse was broken.

Hermione felt a burst of magic and she looked up, she could see the light dancing around the town. She scrunched her eyebrows and stood up. She looked around to see everyone's looks. They were remembering. She glanced down the street towards the hospital and turned towards Regina's house. She walked down the road and up to the door and let herself in. It had taken her a few minutes to get there from where she was, so she knew Regina was there already, she could sense her.

She walked up the stairs to the bedrooms and could see Regina sitting on Henry's bed. "So what broke it?" Hermione asked, leaning on the doorframe.

Regina looked up, shocked, turning towards her. "A mother's love for her child. True Love."

Hermione nodded, she felt kind of like an idiot for not figuring that one out before herself. "But you did love Henry."

Regina gave a short, ironic laugh. "Ms. Swan is his mother, I am just his adopted mother with a hole where my heart should be." Regina wiped a tear away. "All I wanted was to have my life back, everything was taken from me, I just wanted it back."

Hermione shrugged and sat on the bed. "Because if you did have a heart and you told Henry that you loved him, your curse would've been broken ages ago."

Regina just stared at her like she grew a second head. "The town remembers and I have no magic, nothing."

Hermione looked at her and smiled lightly. "Who said you need magic to live?"

Regina snorted. "That's rich, coming from you. You were so powerful that you left Storybrooke, no one has ever left Storybrooke except for Henry." She looked back at Henry's room. "I really did love him, he was my son. But he doesn't love me, not like he loves Ms. Swan, she is his mother, she broke the curse for him."

Hermione sighed. "I have to take you in now." Regina looked at her again. "I signed in blood to remain in Storybrooke until the curse was broken. I expected it to take longer and I didn't want anyone else to mess with it more than necessary."

"That's why you sent your friend home." Regina whispered. "You tied this town to you."

Hermione nodded. "I have to take Mr. Gold in as well."

"He took it." Regina stated. "True Love, he said that it could be used to bring Henry back, made from Snow's and Charming's hair."

Hermione stood up, confused. "Regina, you can't bottle up True Love."

Regina looked at her confused. "Yes you can, he made a potion out of it."

Hermione shook her head. "No, True Love isn't a thing you can make from a potion, it's pure emotion, though the love for a child from a parent isn't the same thing either, but its close enough in feeling." Hermione looked out the window. "Regina, he didn't bottle up any form a love."

Regina stood up and they looked out the window, as the purple clouds raged towards them. "Magic." Regina whispered. "He bottled up magic, he put the same potion in the curse."

Hermione nodded. "To connect the two, to bring the worlds together." The clouds got closer and Hermione looked over at Regina to see her smirking lightly. "Of course you would be happy, your magic will be returned."

Regina looked at her. "I guess I won't be serving my sentence with you after all."

Hermione sighed. "I'm going to kick his rumpleskin ass when I get my hands on him."
