Chapter 3 - Rumplestiltskin's Pain

Rain hit hard against the cave, hitting furiously against the stone cold walls. The water flow of the rain began to rise out of control, flowing quickly along the floor entering his cave rapidly.

Thunder struck frightfully outside, as it echoed throughout the cave. "BANG!" it struck against the floor startling rumple in his sleep. He woke up suddenly eyes shooting open by the quick blast from outside, he rose up in a quick motion noticing the floor that surround him and his cage was flooded from the rain.

Rumplestiltskin climbed onto the rock ledge in his cell, slowly backing away from the water. He grabbed his legs, tugging them quickly to his chest. He waited for what seemed like forever for his beloved belle since she was taken away with that bastard charming, but it had only been 2 weeks and he never noticed how much he yearned for her, till now.

He looked to the ripples in the water, as he pulled an angry face down the water noticing his monstrous reflection, reflecting in the ripples to him. "How dare you stare at me." he spoke down to his reflection, turning his face in disgust.

The dark side of him inside laughed at him, the feel of him laughing made his body ache, he didn't want this anymore, he was sickened by the effect it had on his belle. He turned his focus away from the rippling water, noticing a voice whispering to him. "listen." the voice whispered silently as it echoed throughout his cell.

Rumplestiltskin turned instantly at the voice. "Show yourself!" Rumple demanded, to his empty cell, raising his body away from the wall. He froze quickly noticing movement in the water as the ripples began to ripple uncontrollably in front of him, he leaned his body forward bending his body to lie onto his stomach now looking into the water noticing something strange appear in front of him.

Rumplestiltskin's eyes opened wide backing away now as he watched the pool of water rise in front of him, the water twisted and turned turning into now a misshapen body. Rumplestiltskin eyed the figure before him, trying to picture a sleek silhouette of rippling water, the figure rose before him, each movement casting tiny waves across the dungeon floor. Now appearing in front of him a lady stood there smiling to him, her body rippled delicately in front of him she laughed highly noticing his face turn angrily to her. "Why, Rumplestiltskin." Says the watered figure. Giving him a fake shocked appearance. "I knew you belonged in a cage." She laughs loud to him.

"Regina." He says evilly. "You don't look at all pretty with this attempt of magic!" Rumplestiltskin infuriated Regina, trying to conceal him from just grabbing the bitch right then and there, beating her down like a ton of bricks.

"Oh poor rumple, caged like a dog i see again." Regina said teasingly, looking to him front of her when she laughed. "Never knew dear belle had it in her to lock you up."

"Regina! I guess you shut your little mouth, before i." Rumplestiltskin said shockingly, raising his eyes in horror by what she said about his belle. He raised his scaly features to hers gnarling his imp scaly finger to her face warning her. "What makes you think i won't kill you, your majesty?" he says.

Regina pointed the wall before her a green glitter of magic came from her finger hitting into the invisible air when appeared a Smokey mirror in front of Rumplestiltskin's eyes. "Look at your dearie girlfriend rumple, oh..." she tutted. "What was her name again?" Regina said teasingly with a huff in her voice, placing her hand to her chin stroking it to remember.

Rumplestiltskin gaze went suddenly shocked looking distraught into the mirror noticing his belle. "Belle!" he shouted placing his fingers onto the mirror. His scaly features saddened watching his beloved laying in bed sick with snow and charming by her side, comforting her. His gaze slowly went down to belle's swollen stomach when he got very concerned by her health and for his baby.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER!" He shouted, trying to hold back his tears. He watched Regina laugh in front of him and this made his feature crease in anger.

"YOU'VE CAUSED SO MUCH PAIN FOR ME IN THE PAST! Now you do this to me, what makes you think i won't kill you?"He shouted to Regina, his gaze never leaving hers as he watched belle disappear before him. "Belle! Come back." He shouted for her, turning his gaze back to Regina. "Bring her back you witch." He spat angrily to her face, grabbing her shoulders shaking her in his grasp.

"Oh imp," she laughs in his arms when he stops breathlessly. "You've got to trust me. You see." She brings her body close to his, placing her tiny thin fingers onto his chest stroking down his scaly skin speaking to him in a whispered tone. "I'm slowly killing your belle." She evilly placed her mouth to his ear biting it with defeat she drew back from him now smirking to him.

Rumplestiltskin's eyes widened in horror once again, realizing what she just said. Pushing her off of him he knocked her to the flooded floor, rolling on top of her until they were face to face soaking wet to the bone. Regina looked up to his wet features, when a chill ran through her body as his dagger pressed against her throat. "Tell me dearie," he hissed, so close she could feel his spittle on her skin, "what makes you think I won't kill you right here and now?"

Regina became very afraid of now Rumplestiltskin's dark side, she knew messing him, messing with his belle would trigger him off and it worked, she knew the beast inside of him would come out. "You can't kill me rumple, if you did you'd only kill your dear belle." Regina said breathlessly against his blade. "Belle is connected to me, if you kill me the death spot i placed on her chest inside your cave the night you were locked up, would kill her instantly." She says darkly to him when she continued now feeling Rumplestiltskin's blade push in deeper.

"Your blood is poison rumple, black as hell. You don't deserve belle! She deserves to be dead, including that unborn child of yours!" she screamed out at him, poking him into his clavicle hard. "dah dad a!" he tutted to her, bringing his finger to her face. The look he now gave down to her was utter horror she noticed his scaly features turn more evil than ever before, this was indeed scaring her alot.

"You better and i mean, better! Not have meant that your majesty." He shouted, now spitting all over her pale features. "I warned you dearie," he said, pushing the dagger further into her throat cutting off her airway completely, this is what he wanted truly wanted. "Yet you don't listen." He continued.

Regina turned her face away, turning her neck at the same time from him, her eyes squinting tightly by the sharp blade slowly cutting into her very skin. Rumplestiltskin's impped features strickened by now the blood pouring slowly down Regina's throat, he wasn't at all bothered about her, but belle, his belle he suddenly heard a scream echo throughout his cell.

He paused in fright, looking down to his blade against her neck. He backed away from her, knocking himself back into the wall behind him getting away from her quickly. He gnarled his finger to her in displeasure watching her sit up from the water looking to him as she rubbed her throat softly, soothing the pain that was inflicted across her neck. Rumplestiltskin gave Regina a grimace expression looking down to her, his voice becoming very bitter. "Get up you witch, and tell me how i can leave this place." He said, eyeing her down at the floor twisting his features around his cave looking for a way out.

Regina raised herself from the floor feeling apprehension towards him, she never feared him before. She patted her skirt out looking to Rumplestiltskin's features noticing his twisted features to her. "Oh rumple," pouting her lips out to him. "I guess you pull a straight face or it will stick like that forever." She jokingly said, trying to ease the horrible tension in the cave.

"Enough of your jokes your majesty." Gritting his teeth, hissing through them like a snake. He turned to face the cell exited, grasping his bruised fingers around the bars. He shook them forcefully then gave a loud yelp in frustration. "Garr! I want out!" he shouted. His eyes raised up noticing Regina in front of him on the opposite of his cell. "How...How, did you get from in here?" He questioned her, his bitter voice rising highly to her in confusment.

Regina gave a loud laugh from her throat, pulling her face closer to him pressing her nose against his nose. "Rumple, dear. I still have my magic." She waved her fingers showing the purple smoke glide swiftly around her fingers noticing his leering reaction.

"And what are you going to do with your magic?" he questioned her, giving her a confused look in-between the bars. Regina smiled evilly and this made rumple pull his face away from her but with now her hand grasping onto his collar pulling his face back to her, she whispered. "I'm going to pretend I'm you rumple." she kissed his scaly cheek then pushed him away from her. "I'm going to see your dear belle before she's goes delusional, oh," she stops. "About your baby." She raises her eyebrows to him in surprise pointing her finger against the bars. "I nearly killed it aswell in her dreams your poor precious baby." she said with a teasingly in her voice. "You evil bitch." He spat to her. Regina quickly backed away from his cell, as now he tried to grab her. She laughed highly in front of him. "Now, that's why we are so alike rumple. We play hard to get." She continued to laugh out loud.

Rumplestiltskin pushed his arms out of his cell trying to grab that bitch, in attempt to grab her she was too far away. "Wait till to get out you, your majesty. You won't have your last words before i get you next." He warned her.

"Oh really i bet, watch this then." She said surprisingly, she brought her hands up to her face when purple smoke began to gleam all around her covering her body throughout the cave. The smoke gleamed brightly when Regina laughed now but it didn't sound like her, it sounded like him, Rumplestiltskin. "Honey, I'm home." Regina says sarcastically, laughing within her now man voice now posing like him with her fingers in the same motion when he laughs.

"Hehe, all best in time dearie." She says to him. Rumplestiltskin's eyes raise in horror, he wanted to get out the cage so bad and kill her for portraying him. "How dare you, how dare you take my identity." He roared to her. "You're not fooling my belle, she's sick how can you do this to her, to Me." he said heartily, wanting his belle to be safe.

"I'll doubt she have any problems with me dearie, this is my happy ending. All happy endings must be destroyed." She spat to him, her eyes now gleaming to him with happiness. "i bid my ab dues rumple, sleep well." She quickly says before conjuring a purple smoke barrier, teleporting herself away from his cave. "Here." In a quick attempt she shouts. "This is too watch me swoon over your belle, when i kill her." Regina says deeply, as she throws a mirror to him, the silver stained mirror guided along the floor stopping right in rumples feet. He drops to his knees watching now when green smoke appeared clearing a vision of his belle with dark Regina as him. "Belle, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry for every single pain i caused you." as he watched his belle being played with, he broke down heavily tears now falling on top of the mirrored vision of belle.


Follow up from chapter 3 and now what Rumplestiltskin is seeing?

Rumplestiltskin placed his hand out in front of belle, urging her to approach him. She looked at him worriedly not knowing it was indeed her real lover standing there coming to her rescue but, he was like he was and this made belle feel happy. "Come to me my love, I'm not going to hurt you, i promise." He nodded lightly to her, wanting her to accept his hand but her eyes wouldn't allow it. Belle eyes looked to him standing there before her, she was spooked out by how he looked, and he looked not his normal self, but different in a sensible way.

Rumplestiltskin: "Don't accept belle, don't accept her hand." He warned to belle into the mirror urging her not to go forward with her evil plan.

She eyed him in front of her noticing His clothes were ragged torn a little, his hair was dirty and greasy but not to greasy, his eyes were lighter than usual but he then said something that no one ever had ever heard of before, except her. "Belle my dear, it's me. I only know one thing i gave you that no else knew, there's a stone that you're holding that's hidden inside your undergarments, its protects you from magic." He says to her, trying to convince her that it's him and not her imagination playing her up. "It's a piece of gold thread that i enchanted, you wrapped it around your waist so you felt safe." He nodded to her, still trying to convince her it's him.

Rumplestiltskin: "God damn it belle, realize what that bitch is doing." He cursed into the mirror still crying heavily at her image in front of him.

Belle's eyes looked down to her stomach, stroking it in circles now feeling the gold thread under her fingers, she opened her eyes wide in shock, only he was the only one who knew about the gold thread and this brought her a big smile to her face. "Rumple, i thought I'd never see you again." Belle quickly ran over to him now, as his arms opened wide to grab her.

Rumplestiltskin: "BELLE, NO!" HE SCREAMED TO THE MIRROR. "HEAR ME BELLE, OPEN YOUR EYES it's not me!." He continued to yell.

He held belle tightly in his grasp. "I'm so sorry rumple, I'm sorry i locked you in that cell." She whispered into his chest, crying heavily. "No need to be sorry dearie, I'm just glad to see you happy and well." He smiled against her hair, smelling in her sweet scent of roses across his nose. "Now dearie, it's time for your surprise." He said with a happy tone, an evil smirk now spreaded across his lips as he pulled out a hunter's knife from his side. "You have a surprise, why do i need surprises when i have you back." belle said lovingly into his chest holding him tightly to her frame. "Because this surprise will make your suffering go away." he said slowly, raising the knife slowly up into the air behind her back.

Rumplestiltskin's eyes rose in horror, noticing the knife in her hands, he raised his knees from the floor standing up right. He pressed his back against the hard stone wall screaming into the silver mirror. "NOOOOOO!" he screamed. "Belle, look, move away!" he shouted into the mirror, his tears streaming uncontrollably down his features.

"I'm not suffering anymore, my dear rumple now that i have you back." Belle says softly, her soft whispered voice, whispered against his chest. Rumples eyes turned dark as he laughed, belle moved her face up quickly to look to him. "What's funny, rumple?" she questioned to him noticing his features twisted. "This is what's funny." Turning his features to her, looking down at her innocent blue eyes he struck quickly with a full blow into her back when the blade sunk into her spin.


"NOOOOO!" RUMPLE SCREAMED, PUNCHING THE WALL BEHIND HIM, KICKING IT WITH ALL HIS MIGHT. "HOW COULD YOU Regina!," his pained voice echoed throughout his cell. "BELLE...AHHH." he cried heavily, his heart began to ache heavily within his chest, now feeling belles stab into his back, he clenched his back violently quickly falling to the floor in pain landing onto his hands and knees the mirror falling in front of him.

He watched belle's pained reaction on her voice, noticing her lips speak. "Regina." When she collapsed to the floor heavily, falling to her side shutting her eyes in pain as tears escaped her painful eyes. Rumplestiltskin yelled out in pain, his tears coming stronger down his face watching Regina transform back into her normal self, she blew a kiss to rumple signalizing that the deed was done and it was her final happily ever after.

Rumplestiltskin had no power left, he wanted belle, and he wanted her by his side. He knew he had no power to do anything but he quickly called out for one person he didn't want to see. "Blue fairy, i need to you, please." He whimpered to the floor crying continuously in pain.

"I hear your plea, Rumplestiltskin." The blue fairy said, now appearing above him in his cell. The blue fairy looked down to the pained imp, noticing his face lowered to the floor in hurt. "What's happened Rumplestiltskin? What can i do to help you?"

"Its belle, she's hurt." He coughed on his salvia, raising his eyes to the blue fairy. "I want her, i want her by my side." He pleaded. "Please, will you get her or take us to somewhere please." He pleaded again to her, begging her with his voice and eyes.

The blue looked to him, she could see the love for his belle. "Ok, Rumplestiltskin i will take you both somewhere but i don't have much energy to take you somewhere out of this world, but." She said to him watching him look to belle in the mirror. "I can drop you outside a castle, follow the path and continue right. There on the mountain, you'll see the castle with blue flags." She said softly, smiling to him. With the swish of her wand, she tapped it against his forehead.

Blue magic formed around rumple, when he stood to his foot. "Just remember what i told you." she said to him when he disappeared with the light.
