I cant wait for you to read this one. It might be one of my favoret chapters i've ever written. :D Please Review I want to know what you thought of Henry's litle plan ;)
Henry entered the house being followed by all the people who had been there when the story was taken to another land.
"Henry what was in that book" Regina" Nearly shouted for the fifth time. After everyone was in the living room Henry cleared his throat. Everyone fell silent.
"Mr. Gold I'd like to make a deal." Everyone gasped, even the man spoken to.
"Henry" The evil queen hissed. What are you doing?"
"Come with me" Henry said, walking up the stairs. The old man followed reluctantly. They entered his mother's office and locked the door. The room was magically soundproof.
"What is this about" Mr. Gold asked.
"You have a lot of Magic items, even more since Storybrook came back. I want three thing" Henry said matter-of-factly.
"You might be my grandson but I don't give handouts. You have to have something of equll value."
"I do" Henry smiled. Gold leaded his cane.
"What do you want?"
"I want to be able to lock any room that will only open for me and with no possible way even with magic for someone to get in." Gold nodded. "I want the power to erase people's memories…" Henry paused.
"And" The dark one asked, curious what could be equal to this tall order.
"And a shadow" He finished. Gold gave him an unreadable look.
"What do you want these for" Gold asked.
"You didn't care what things were used for, only that you got what you wanted." Henry stated.
"What do you offer" he asked suspiciously?
"You once bottled true love using a hair from each of my parents." Henry said. "I can offer you that again. He held up two hairs. The old man grabbed them from him. He studied them with his magic.
"Who's hair is this" he asked loudly.
"Can you get me what I want?"
"Yes" Mr. Gold said hesitantly.
"Is it a deal" Henry asked, holding out his hand. Mr. Gold looked conflicted.
"Wait" Henry said. "I have one more request."
"More?" he asked
"No one can find out what you gave and what I asked for." Mr. Gold Once again looked conflicted.
"Deal" The man said holding out his hand. "I can get it all to you by the end of the day."
"Thank you" Henry smiled.
"I don't know what you're doing but I suggest you think before you do anything rash."
"I'll be fine" Henry said, not denying he had a hidden agenda. The rest of the night Henry sat in the living room ignoring everyone's angry questions. After Mr. Gold had left, unable to tell anyone what was passed during the deal things became crazy. He wanted so badly to lock himself in his room but he couldn't yet. They would follow him and if even one person looked under his bed everything would be over.
Midnight was when the doorbell rang. Regina opened the door to see Mr. Gold standing in the doorway holding two containers.
"Gold" Regina growled. "You can't come in."
"I made a deal with your son and I will fulfill my end of the bargen.
"Tell me what he asked for and what's in that box. Whatever is in there is powerful magic. I can feel it. What could Henry give you that would equal to those?
"I'm sorry Regina I truly am but I can't. Now you can let me in or I'll find a way to break in and I don't think you want your house unprotected." Regina glared at him but let him pass.
"Mr. Gold" Henry greeted. "Come to my room." The two entered Henry's room.
"This" He said, removing a small red gem from a box. "Will allow you to make a room only accessible by you. Henry took it and placed it on his dresser." He opened the next container and removed a black bracelet shaped like a vine with white leaves. "This will allow you to erase any memory within the last year." Henry put it on his wrist. "And this" the man said, pulling a small black sphere from the box. "Contains a shadow."
"Who's s it" Henry all of a sudden feeling guilty.
"A man from many years ago." Henry nodded feeling better that h hadn't stolen one from someone in town. "Henry I say this one more time. Be careful. If you're thinking about going against Pan alone then you need to see reason. The boys more powerful me. Nothing I can give you would give you a chance.
"I'm not searching for Peter" Henry promised. After gold had left Pan climbed out.
"You made a deal with the Dark One." Pan said shocked.
"Yea I thought it would be good to be prepared for anything." Henry said happily. "With this Gem you don't have to hide under my bed anymore. You still have to be in my bedroom but I'm sure it's better than a cramped pace. Also I got you this" Henry said, handing Peter the black sphere. He looked surprised.
"You got me a shadow. I thought that maybe if you got a shadow you might be able to do magic again.
"That's thoughtful but I don't think that will work" Peter said, smiling at his boy.
"It's still helpful to have a shadow" Henry said. Peter nodded and twisted the sphere. A black cloud erupted out circling Peter. When the smoke vanished Peter once again had a shadow.
"Wow" the boy exclaimed. His excitement was short lived. He looked darkly at Henry." rumple doesn't give things for free. You had to of given him something of imaginable value. What did you give him?" Henry blushed.
"I have to start with what happened earlier today" He said. He told the story of how he discovered the new story and Ariel taking it away.
"So what did the story give you that was worth so much?" Henry fell silent. "Henry?"
"You got a hair on my shirt" he said slowly.
"You gave him my hair?"
"And mine" Henry said.
"Why would he want that" Peter asked, rubbing his head.
"I gave him what he needed to bottle true love.
"I'm your true love?" He asked quietly.
"And I'm yours" Henry smiled, kissing Peter on the cheek.
