Omg I've been gone for so long! I'm so so sorry! OMG! Anyway I have a lot of good ideas both from myself and all of you, special mention to lmusicluver23 for giving me the ideas about the Queens finding out about the baby. Well I've been debating as to whether or not they tell rumple and I'm gonna go with not, because they can lie and say she was behind the counter as they don't want Rumple to be distracted from getting them their happy endings. I don't think they'll go after the baby at least not until they truly understand how powerful she is (Product of true love and the Dark One's child).
Chapter 7
"What happened then?" Rumple asked angrily.
"She didn't bloody have it, she said she'd look for it later, she had to move boxes or something." Cruella said.
"Well you could've helped her." Rumple replied.
"We may have if her two friends hadn't walked in, Regina and some blonde." Maleficent answered.
"Emma." Rumple said through his teeth.
"Yeah her, don't worry she'll find it soon." Ursula attempted to reassure him.
"No, she won't because Regina has it." Rumple answered.
"What on earth do you mean?" Cruella answered.
"I mean, Regina has been looking for the author for a while, she probably has the pen, but there must have been some problem with using it correctly." Rumple explained angrily, how could he have been so stupid?
"We'll get it from her." Maleficent stated as if she were bored.
"No because Belle would get hurt. I'll figure it out. We need to be smart." Rumple stated as he thought. "We'll need to figure out what happened to it and why it doesn't work and if that fails, we may need another curse of some sort." Rumple sighed; this would take longer than he thought, especially since his help was these three.
"So what's the plan?" Ursula asked.
"We'll go to her office search there, then the Sheriffs station and at the end the hospital." Rumple said as he calculated their approach.
"Why the hospital?" Ursula asked disgusted.
"That's where she kept Belle hidden for 28 years without anyone finding out." Rumple answered.
"28 years?" Ursula asked astounded.
"That long?" Maleficent added on surprised.
"What the hell were you doing, why didn't you find your maid?! If you loved her so much I don't understand why..." Cruella was cut off from her rant by Rumple.
"Because, dearest Regina told me Belle was dead before the curse." Rumple answered.
"You're the bloody dark one, if you can see the future how could you not check to see if she was lying?!" Cruella asked the surprise of his stupidity clearly confusing her.
"Because I was upset, dearie." Rumple answered annoyed.
"That's not an excuse." Ursula added.
"Oh shut it, you two. You're gonna hurt our little Rumple's feelings." Maleficent taunted.
"Says the woman who wanted to kill a 16 year old because her parents didn't invite her to a bloody party." Rumple mocked.
"Oh god, I always remember that and laugh." Ursula said trying to contain her laughter.
"Oh shut it, you tried to kill that little mermaid, what's her name? Ariel?" Maleficent laughed. "See how well that went."
"It seems like I'm the only adult out of you all." Cruella laughed.
"Please, you wanted a bloody coat made from puppies, you were acting like a spoilt brat, and you're the only childish one here." Ursula taunted.
"Shut it, all of you. We're in this mess because of all of your stupidity, and we are going to have to work together to fix this. After that we can all go our separate ways and be free of each other." Rumple stated as he began to drive to Regina's office.
"Won't you miss us, Rumple?" Maleficent laughed.
"Not one bit." Rumple replied.
Belle had been asleep for almost an hour, leaving the others with time to discuss what to do about their three visitors. There were differences of opinions on how to handle the situation. "I don't think we should let them know we know who they are." Regina said calmly for a third time.
"But, if they know, then it'll be easier to attack them. They won't hide because they know." Mary Margaret argued.
"Think about it for a second, while they don't know we have the upper hand, it'll give us more time." Emma said as she took a sip of her tea.
"I guess, we need to be careful though. If he's here, we can't let her be in danger or the rest of the town." David said as he smiled at his wife. Mary Margaret smiled back as she turned her attention to the humming coming down the stairs.
"Hey Belle." Emma said with an apologetic smile.
"Hi, so what are we talking about?" Belle asked knowingly.
"Oh nothing, let's find something to watch." Regina smiled as she began to flick through the channels.
"I'm not stupid, I know what you were talking about. You can talk about it in front of me. I'm fine." Belle reassured.
"Ok then, we were talking about how to handle the situation with our three guests." David said with a smile.
"Well, I think we should ignore it as best we can and focus on the mission." Belle said as she smiled at Regina.
"Yeah, but what if they try to hurt people?" Mary Margaret asked.
"They won't, not unless someone gets in their way. They'll want to keep a low profile and focus on finding the 'Author'." Belle stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"I knew them in the enchanted forest, they wanted the gauntlet that lead me to the dagger so they kidnapped me. They will be focused on their goal and won't want anything else to deal with." Belle explained.
"I see what you mean, but what if they want revenge on him, and try to use you." Mary Margaret said softly.
"Well, Regina's been teaching me and so has Emma, I can protect myself and I have you guys. They won't get to me. We should stay focused." Belle said with a smile, clearly proud of her magical achievements.
"Nevertheless, we need to be careful." Regina warned.
"Yeah, we can't have our librarian getting hurt!" Emma said jokingly to lighten the mood, it seemed as though whenever Mr Gold was brought up, the mood dampened almost instantaneously.
"Oh shush! Now let's move onto more important things like what movie we're watching tonight." Belle smiled.
"I'd say Captain Hook, but there isn't one solely focused on me and I don't really care about Pan." Killian said as he walked in.
"Hello everyone." He added with a smile.
"Well lucky us." Belle said as she rolled her eyes.
"I'll have you know that a movie solely focused on me would be marvellous. Anyways since no one liked my idea, what else is there?" Killian said smiling, he and Belle were on a weak friendship basis at the moment. They had been together a lot, so after he grovelled and showed her that he had changed, Belle let him in. Even though he wouldn't admit it, he was glad she was his friend, not only had she saved his life, she had forgiven him for almost ending hers. That forgiveness had lead to more and more people accepting him into Story Brooke and by extension, Emma's boyfriend.
"What about, Tangled?" Emma asked curiously.
"It doesn't have any of us in it so I'm fine with that." David said as he smiled at Killian. The teasing didn't stop and Killian had tried to hold his tongue a few times to respect Emma's father, but their friendship was too deeply rooted. He couldn't help it.
"Haha, very funny, 'Charming', your name isn't even mentioned in the bloody movie." Killian laughed as he watched Regina click on Tangled.
"It's settled then." Regina said as she lay back and watched the movie, ignoring the bickering next to her.
Suddenly there was a scream from outside. Immediately they were all on their feet and began to rush outside. Again the screaming became louder and louder, their pace quickened to see what was happening. There was a huge crowd outside Granny's they rushed through to get to the centre. Whale was sitting down along with Hopper next to a woman, they couldn't see her face but there was a lot of blood.
"What happened?" Emma asked confused.
"We don't know she sort of appeared here, we don't know who she is." Hopper answered as Dr Whale attempted to stop the bleeding.
"Where's that ambulance? We need to get her into the ICU now!" He shouted in an angry tone.
Emma attempted to help as best she could, until she heard another scream. This time, the scream was not from someone who was injured or hurt. This time the scream was from Belle. She watched as Belle ran towards the body with almost supernatural speed, she began to cry.
"Mother?" What?" Belle attempted to make out but the tears overwhelmed her. As if one cue, the ambulance arrived and the paramedics began to get Belle's mother onto the stretcher.
Regina was now holding Belle back as she cried. The stress wasn't good for the baby and they all knew it.
"Belle? Shhh. It's OK." Regina assured her.
After about 10 minutes the cried began to cease.
"Whhaaa? What" What is she doing here, she was dead?" Belle managed to choke out as the tears overtook her again.
"Shhh. We don't know sweetie. They're doing everything they can, stop crying. Shhh." Emma said as she rubbed her back.
Everyone's hearts broke as they laid eyes on Belle, the woman had been through so much and whenever things seemed to be going well another tragedy hit her.
Even Leroy was tearing up and he had never shed a tear in his whole life, it was a sight for sore eyes. A complete and utter tragedy. The only good side was that her mother was alive. But at what cost? And why? Had it been Gold who had brought her back, in hopes of regaining Belle's favour. But, even he wouldn't be strong enough to pull something like that off.
"Do you wanna go to the hospital?" Regina asked as she hugged Belle.
All she was given was a nod of the head in response but that was enough for her to get Belle into the car and start driving as everyone else made their way to the hospital. It seemed as though nothing anyone said could soothe her. Maybe that was his plan? To break her so that he could rebuild her? Regina thought to herself. But the idea didn't make sense, he would never do that to Belle, but then again he would never have given her cause to make him leave town, yet he ended up doing so. He was completely unpredictable, she couldn't decide on the lengths he would go to, to get Belle back. Maybe he just wanted her to be happy, even if it wasn't with him? Or maybe it was for her to love him again. Of course she still loved him and that was what pained Belle everyday. The struggle between love and hate. The gaining of her baby and the loss of Rumple. It was good and bad.
After 3 minutes of driving they were there. The benefits of a small town. Regina ushered Belle inside and waited for the doctors to arrive. As they waited, Emma and Hook arrived.
"Emma, Regina can I see you for a second?" Whale asked as he walked out of the operating theatre. The two ran towards him, leaving Belle with Hook.
"Shhh, Belle. My dear it's OK. Shhh, your mother she's back isn't she? So why are you crying, it doesn't suit you, sweetheart." Hook attempted to make his friend feel better and surprisingly it was working.
"I thought she was dead. It was my fault. I would never have imagined her here." Belle said exasperated.
"I understand, but calm down it can't be good for that little sailor." Hook smiled gesturing to the baby.
"It's a girl." Belle said laughing.
"Then she can be the first girl other than Emma allowed to sail on my ship." Hook smiled.
Belle opened her mouth to say something but then it hit her. It hurt. Something was wrong. She could sense it.
"Doctor! Someone! Please, something's happening to her!" Hook began to shout. He grabbed a wheel chair and sat Belle down upon it.
"Shhh, it's OK. You'll be fine, it's probably just a muscle ache or something." Hook reassured her.
"I...I hope so." Belle let out as Killian pushed her into the room to see the doctor.
He brushed her hair back lovingly, not the way he did with Emma, but the way he did with Bae, the way he did with his sister. Long ago.
Unknown to them, Rumple had walked in at the very end to see Hook and Belle's exchange. Unaware of facts, his anger overcame him.
Well how did you find that? Tell my what you think and tell me your ideas you know i love them!
