TIME SKIP 1 YEAR PERCY had been studying under Gold fir the past year. Rumpelstiltskin had taught him almost everything and was preparing to introduce him to the community. When the whole Peter Pan incident hapopened. Percy had been devastated by the loss of his teacher and honestly, was glad Rumple had insisted on teaching him the geography before AND after the curse. Especially since they were once more in the enchanted forest. Luckily, he knew a place to go. In the north, secluded from prying eyes, was a small house. The real treasure was underneath the house. All manner of riches lay in a gilded hoard; anything from wands to grimoires to magic weapons of mass destruction. It was of course warded, making it perfect for waiting until one magic user or another activated the curse once more and when it happened he would be ready.
LINE BREAK
Percy was grinning when he found it: the curses original manuscript. The manuscript was a stone tablet. About as tall as snow white and covered in runes. If altered so would the curse: and what the fools didn't know is that the curse is literally the primordial magic created at the birth of the first dark one. This meant one could easily raise the dead. With that thought he soon got to work on HIS alterations. First, edit the list of who keeps their memories, scratch the savior and Regina off those who keep their powers, and bring his mentor back to life. Also, he set it to take everyone, and made himself the town judge now all he has to do is wait. LINE BREAK ONCE MORE Somehow, Percy knew it would be Regina who inevitably re-cast the curse. It was really interesting for him to watch as she cast the curse to stop the Wicked Witch from winning. Percy's grin could have lit up New York.
LINE BREAK
It had been a busy week for Me. Emma Swan. First, she regains her memory and is told her family needs help. Than, she heads home to find her parents are having a kid. And, as the icing on the cake; her parents and Regina along with a recently resurrected Mr. Gold are the only ones who know who they are. Her one, good, break was that she arrived right on time for the weekly meeting of the" I know what is going group." The first question she had was directed at Mr. Gold and was simply "Aren't you dead?" Mr. Gold seemed a bit uncomfortable and shifted in his seat "Yes but I'm back though I have no idea how I'm back." "He's lying" "Emma!" "It's true, though I suppose you want to know how", sighed Mr. Gold. "Yes that would be nice", snapped Regina. "Well so would I, I only have an idea of who", he said. "Who" said Emma. Mr. Gold heaved a sigh,"My student the honorable Judge Jackson."
