Chapter 6
This part of the story is now back to Belle's point of view!
When Rumple left I started having flashbacks of the hour I had lost of my memories. I kept seeing a face. Regina's face. When she knocked on the door of the shop I panicked. I didn't want her to know that I had her note. I hadn't cracked it yet but I still knew it was her. I crawled to the door trying to keep out of site and locked the door, but she must have heard me. I crawled back to the kitchen to grab something to arm myself but I couldn't get to the knife draw because I would be seen. I heard the door open and the closet thing I could grab to arm my self was Rumples dagger. I hated using it but I needed something to protect me. I heard someone call my name they were getting closer.
They were just outside the door and coming in I drew the dagger and turned around hoping it cut them. I opened my eyes to see Rumple. I had cut him. "Belle! Its ok it's me" I lowered; what had I done. After a long while of talking he alerted that Regina wanted a deal with him. "Rumple whatever you do don't take any deals from that; monster! She is making a plan. She wrote the letter!" He didn't look surprised "Rumple? What did she want?" He took my hand
"She wanted Emma's heart, but she couldn't take it herself because Henry would never forgive her" He told me. I was shocked. I was sure that she had changed. I knew now that I needed to finish this letter.
"Rumpl…." I was interrupted by the opening of the door.
"Hello?" It was Emma. We had to warn her about Regina.
"Belle; stay here and decode the letter. We need to know what it says before we jump to conclusion" I nodded and got back to work. I was trying to hear what they were saying; but I couldn't make it out. I had nearly decoded the letter when Rumple walked back in "How's it going?" he asked me as finished the last word
"Done!" I yelled; I almost got up and did a little dance but contained myself
"Well what does it say?!" He almost yelled to. I couldn't tell if he was pretending or if was actually excited.
"Hold on a second; your actually excited about this?"
"Of course I am Belle. If your happy I am happy" Well that explains alot; he has always only ever been happy If I am happy. So I started to read what it translated too.
"Turn in Miss. Swan to the queens of darkness before the next murder is committed. You will never see us coming so don't try to stop us. Love your dear old enemy The Evil Queen. And it is stamped with a green apple" He took it from me and read it over and over again. "That's all it says Rumple you can read it as many times as you want" But with a wave of his hand the green apple was gone. "Wait what did you do" I took it and saw what looked like an address. I rushed over to the book and searched "3480" Rumple rushed over to watch me "Storybrooke lane. Then it just says…" I read it I couldn't speak
"What is it?"
"The next murder; It's here"
