Chapter 6: The Eye

(*PRESENT DAY IN STORYBROOKE*)


The Doctor, Rose, Jack, Regina, Mary Margaret, David, Emma, Henry, Hook, and Mr. Gold stood in the forest as the sun was setting over Storybrooke. Regina had just come up with a plan to use the Eye of Life to change the Weeping Angels back into humans. The Eye of Life was one of three magical glass eyeballs with intense magic power. Regina stole the Eye from the Eleventh Doctor back in the Enchanted Forest, who was trying to keep it out of her possession. Since then, she's kept it locked in her magic vault in Storybrooke. She didn't know if it would work at all, but it was the best plan that anyone could think of. Everyone else in town had been turned into Weeping Angels. Once the sun went down, they could move freely and swiftly through the dark. So, Regina used magic to transport the entire group away from the open forest to just a few yards from her magic vault. However, there were two Weeping Angels on the steps of the vault.

"I'll take care of this." Regina said as she conjured a magic fireball.

"Wait!" Rose said. "Those are still people. You can't kill them."

"Then how are we supposed to get rid of them?" Regina asked.

Mr. Gold then waved his arm. The two Weeping Angels were then consumed by a cloud of magic smoke and disappeared.

"Where did they go?" Jack asked.

"To the beach." Mr. Gold said.

"More will come." The Doctor said. "We're the only people left in town. They can smell us. They're on their way right now."

"So let's move." Emma said.

The fireball on Regina's palm disappeared. Regina then walked up to the vault, unlocked the door, and allowed everyone to walk inside and down the steps before shutting it again. Once Regina reached the group at the bottom, they heard a loud banging from the door at the top.

"Is that the Angels?" Hook asked.

"Yes." The Doctor said. "They know we're here."

"Hurry Regina." Mary Margaret said.

Regina walked in front of the group and disappeared down the hall. She came back to the group a few moments later with a blue, glass eyeball. This was the Eye of Life. It was about the size of a baseball, but it's power was truly intense when used.

"That's it?" Henry asked. "It's so small."

"Don't underestimate its power." Gold said.

Suddenly, the group heard a huge bang coming from the upstairs door. They turned around and saw three Weeping Angels on the steps. The Angels had broken through the doors and already made their way to the stairs at lightning speed. No one dared take their eyes off them. By now, the sun had set and the moon was high. There was some light from the moon shining through the broken doors above and inside the vault to see the Angels, but not much. There was some electricity keeping lights on inside the vault. However, the Angels had the special power to turn them off. Suddenly, the lights in the hallway started to flicker on and off and the Angels inched their way closer and closer to the group. Regina used magic to consume the group in magic smoke and transport them away to avoid being infected by the Weeping Angels. They reappeared inside Regina's mansion.

"Now what?" David asked.

"How do you use the Eye?" Rose asked.

"Perhaps I should do it." Mr. Gold said.

"I've used it before." Regina said. "I know how it's done. I'm doing it. We just need to find the Angels."

"They'll find us." The Doctor said. "They always do."

Regina went to her front door and opened it. They had to find the Angels quickly and turn everyone back to normal as soon as possible. However, the Doctor was right. The Weeping Angels had found them. Once Regina opened the door, she saw an army of stone statues scattered across her spacious front lawn, waiting to attack her.
