I decided to do a double DoFP chapter day today! Or maybe I'm avoiding finals...either way, I hope you enjoy!

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE-Storybrooke

Kendra choked on the black smog. The only thing lighting her path was the light springing from her fingers. "COME OUT! I KNOW YOU ARE OUT THERE! SHOW YOUR FACE YOU COWARD!" The fog parted to reveal Hades coming towards her.

"No need to shout, sparky! I was actually coming to find you. I believe we have some business to discuss." Hades waved his hand, making a desk and a couple of chairs appear.

"Or I could kill you now. I'm not very fond of deals." Kendra balled her hands into tight fists.

"Don't you know you can't kill a god, sparkles? Just hear me out." Hades sat down behind the desk, gesturing for Kendra to take the seat in front of him. "Come on…I don't have all day. I have a very tight schedule and I am sure you will want what I have to trade."

"What could you possibly have that I want?" She hissed.

"What about a stubborn, pretty little brunette?" Hades leaned in towards Kendra.

"She's alive?" Kendra choked.

"Bingo! And she has told me a lot about you, Kendra, or shall I call you the Savior?"

Why would Colette call me the Savior? She always has her reasons and I'll have to trust her. I have to do anything to get her back. "What do you want?"

"Oh, look who wants to make a deal now! Here's my proposition:" Hades folded his hands in front of him as Kendra took a seat. "Most of the time, I totally go for the whole soul for a soul thing, but as Hercules proved, that can be unreliable. So in exchange for your friend and the lives of any other the other people you care about, I want your heart."

"My heart?" Kendra swallowed.

"What do you say, sparky? Like I said, I am on a tight schedule."

"How do I know you aren't lying? Also, if what you say is true, I will only think about your little bargain if you promise not to hurt anybody that I care about."

"Fine." Hades snapped his fingers and Colette appeared, bound and gagged, at the edge of the fog."

"Colette!" Kendra tried to get up, but found her hands bound to the chair.

"What's it going to be, your heart or her life? I hate doing this, but business is business, Savior."

Kendra looked at Colette. She had tears in her eyes, shaking her head no. Sparks erupted from Kendra's fingers in anger. "You have a deal…"

"Wonderful! Now, I would say this next part isn't going to hurt, but I'd be lying." Hades waved the desk and chairs away, Kendra falling to the ground. He reached his bony fingers into her chest as Kendra screamed out in pain. A bright red beating heart was pulled out, with a small section of black in the center. Staring at it, Hades released Colette, allowing her to run to Kendra's side.

"What did you do?" Colette sobbed.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't watch him kill you. I would rather me suffer than know that I was the cause of you never being able to get married to my brother and live out your happy ending. I've become a villain Colette, and you know that they never get happy endings." Kendra wrapped her arms around her, crying into her shoulder.

"You are not a villain. What you just did proves it," Colette reassured her.

"I beg to differ, sweetcheeks. Her heart has already been invaded by darkness." Hades pointed to the black part of Kendra's heart. "She will make an excellent puppet for my plan. Come on, blondie, we have work to do." Hades spoke into Kendra's heart, causing her to rise to her feet and follow after him.

"I am so sorry, Colette…" Kendra whispered as Hades took her into the fog.

When the black haze subsided, Colette found herself alone in the streets of Storybrooke. She ran towards the most familiar place she could find, Granny's Diner. She stumbled through the doorway, just now realizing how exhausted she was. When she entered she saw none other than her father, standing across the diner from her mother, who was clutching Colette's tiny self to her chest. Belle had tears running down her face and Rumple's eyes were glossy with tears of his own.

Rumple immediately recognized her from just moments before and through the images that he viewed in the mirror. "Dearie, how did you get free? Are you alright?" Colette sensed pure concern in his tone.

"Papa, I'm scared." Colette ran to him, and found herself holding tight to him. "He took my best friend. He has her heart," Colette broke down.

Belle looked between Rumple and Colette. "Do you have something you've failed to mention, Rumplestiltskin? You didn't tell me you had another child other than Baelfire," Belle snapped.

"I don't have another child. Just Bae and Colette." Rumple looked at Belle with apologetic eyes. "This is Colette," Rumple said with certainty.

"It's true, mother, and right now I need help from the both of you. I need you to put your differences aside for one moment and put your talents to use. I can't do this alone."
