Chapter Eighteen

Pasts

"He failed again!" Dr. Facilier yelled in frustration. "Why do I have to do everything myself?" Dr. Facilier stormed over to the table in which he had multiple potions and spell books on. He started looking through spellbooks. An idea hit him like a ton of bricks.

Dr. Facilier smiled coldly. "That baby will soon be mine."

King George glared at the wall in front of him. He had been in this cell for so long he lost track. He wanted to revenge. He wanted to end David's happiness.

But a side of him, his fatherly side, wanted to find a way to have another child, to adopt one. But he couldn't. He was trapped in his cell. All because of David.

Suddenly, the door burst open.

King George stood up and stared at the door. A man was standing there. He wore a red jacket, a black top hat with a feather sticking out of it, and a purple shirt.

"Who are you?" King George demanded.

The man laughed and waltzed in. "I'm Dr. Facilier. Nice to meet you. Now, do you want to get out of here or what?"

King George nodded. "Of course I do, but why would I go anywhere with you?"

"Because I can give you what you want. You want revenge, I can help you with that; and, you want a child. I have found one for you."

King George almost smiled. "Let's get going. But, what about the heroes?"

"No need to worry about that. I know exactly what to do." Dr. Facilier waved his hand. A man appeared.

"Who's that and how is he going to help?" King George asked.

The man looked around randomly.

"He's the father of the child that I found for you," Dr. Facilier explained.

The man looked at Dr. Facilier. "Where's my daughter and my wife?"

"Well, your daughter will be taken care of. I can't say the same thing about your wife, though," Dr. Facilier laughed. He waved his hand and the man morphed into a twin of King George.

"Okay, neat, but how will he remember anything I did?" King George asked.

"By a little more magic," Dr. Facilier said. Dr. Facilier pulled an empty vial out of his pocket and turned to face King George. "This might sting." Dr. Facilier waved his hand in front of King George's face. The side of the king's forehead started to glow. A bright glow started to come out of his forehead, almost like a string. It flew into the bottle and dropped in there.

"What was that?" King George asked.

"I just took your memories, well, you still have yours. You two are going to be merely… sharing memories." Dr. Facilier walked over to the man.

The man backed up as far as he could to the wall. "Please, don't."

Dr. Facilier just smile coldly. He dumped the vial on top of the man's head. The man fell to the ground.

"So, he's another me?" King George asked.

Dr. Facilier nodded. "Yes. Now, let's go."

Present day, Storybrooke

Emma opened her eyes and frowned. No one was there. She sat up and looked around. Where is everyone?

"Don't be so worried. Your family is safe."

Emma jumped and looked at the door. No one was there. "Who's there?"

The voice laughed. "I am not here, but know this: when I come for you and your unborn child, you will be all alone."

Emma wrapped her arms around her stomach.

The voice laughed and it soon faded out.

Emma looked down at her stomach. "You'll be fine. I promise."

"Emma? Are you alright?"

Emma looked up and saw Killian rushing over to her. Emma nodded and looked at her stomach.

Killian reached Emma. "What happened while I was away?"

"His voice was here, but he wasn't," Emma tried to explain.

"Who? Whose voice?" Killian asked, getting more worried by the second.

"Dr. Facilier."

Killian sighed. "What did he say?"

Emma finally looked up at Killian. "He said that when he comes for me… for our baby… that I'll be alone."

Killian wrapped Emma in a hug. "You will not be alone."

Emma nodded into Killian's shoulder. "Where is everyone?"

Killian rubbed Emma's back. "It's 10:30 at night. Everyone went home. I went home and got Harper ready for bed and then took her to your parent's house."

"You're staying, right?"

Killian nodded. "Aye, I'm not leaving your side."

Emma smiled. She curled up against Killian, even though he was still standing up. She soon fell asleep.

Killian didn't have the heart to let her go yet, so he just stood there and held Emma.

"Belle, please, don't go," Gold begged. He stared at Belle as she stopped in her tracks.

Belle turned around. "What is it?" she asked calmly.

"I know you might not answer this but… why are you still making the trips down here if Miss. Swan is here?"

"I can't tell you that."

"Why not, Belle? I have no magic. I'm powerless," Gold tried.

Belle squeezed her eyes shut. "I know. I just… no." She shook her head and turned away, walking back to the elevator and upstairs.

Gold sighed. He wanted redemption. He knew that he might not get it after what he did, but he at least wanted forgiveness from Belle.

The door opened to his cell and he looked up. "What are you doing here?"

"Where is Dr. Facilier hiding?" Henry demanded.

"I have no idea," King George lied.

"You might as well tell us. We're going to find him and we're going to beat him," Henry said, trying to sound intimidating.

"Well, if that happens, which it won't, at least you and your family suffer longer." King George smiled coldly.

"You think you're so funny, but you're not."

George smiled. "You're wasting your time."

Henry nodded. "Yeah, I am." Henry stepped back and shut the door, walking away.

"You have a chance to get your revenge. Take it," Dr. Facilier told King George.

"I don't know. I have a daughter to take care of now-"

"Don't let that child deprive you of your revenge!" Dr. Facilier yelled.

King George looked down. "Tell me, if I were to go and get my revenge, while I did that, you would look after her?"
Dr. Facilier nodded. "Yeah, yeah. I would. Now, go get your revenge. The Saviour is having her second child, the first one with that pirate. Go destroy that whole family's happiness."
King George nodded and stood up. "You're right. I'm going to get my revenge. Those heroes will pay."

"Did he tell you anything?" Regina asked Henry when he walked back into the kitchen after his trip to see George.

Henry shook his head. "Nope."

Regina sighed. "We have to get him to tell us something. Even a hint. We can't let Emma and Killian go through another thing like they did with Harper."

Henry nodded. "I agree. We need to do something."

"What kind of places would an evil sorcerer hid out?"

Henry shrugged. "We've had so many here and they've all hidden in different places."

"Where's some place they haven't been, I mean, the evil sorcerers?" Regina asked.

"Hmm." Henry thought for a moment. If this Dr. Facilier guy was smart, he would hide someplace that wasn't obvious, someplace no one has hid before. "Hey, Mom, does King George have a house here?"

"I don't know, probably. Why?"

"If King George was hiding out with this guy, Dr. Facilier, then they would want to hide somewhere that is at least familiar to one of them, right?" Henry asked, smiling.

Regina nodded, catching on. "I see where you're going. I'm going to check. Be back soon." Regina stood up. "I'll be at my office."

Henry nodded. "I'm going to go check up on Mom and Dad."
