Chapter 22-Old friends, new mysteries
Emma woke up in a playground. "Wait I know this place." "You should do, we spent every day here when we were living together". Came a voice from behind.
"So I create this place and you. Where are you in the real world? You looking like him is making me what to look for Billy."
Emma woke up in her room and went to the wardrobe and took out her cigar box, she got from her foster dad. And opened the box and took out a photo of herself and Billy.
After breakfast, Emma headed to the library to find any information on Billy.
At the Library, Emma sat at the computer that had all the old newspapers. She found a article about Billy and another boy running away from a foster home which later got shut down.
The article said Billy had a black eye and the other boy had a broken arm.
The article had Billy`s last name as Blake. Emma asked for a phone book from the woman behind the counter.
Emma looked up Blake and Mitchell because that was the last name of the couple who she and Billy were last in a home together.
she found the number for the Mitchell home and asked if she could use the phone.
"Mitchell group home how I help you?" "Yes, Hi. I used to live in the group home a few years ago with a friend who I `m trying to get in touch with. You wouldn't know how I could get in touch with him? My name is Emma Swan and I am looking for Billy Blake."
"Little Emma Swan, I remember you. Where are you now? Last time I show you, you were going to live with the Jones`s. How did that turn out?"
"I don`t live with the Jones anymore. You wouldn`t know where a Billy Blake lives now?"
"Oh I remember Billy Blake, you too were close. I heard he`s in the O'Neil home, I will get you the number."
After a few minutes the woman came back to the phone. "Hello, yes I have the number for the foster home."
She give Emma the number and after ending the call, Emma called the number she was given. After a few seconds a voice came in from the other side.
"Hello, O`Neil foster home how can I help you?" "Yes, I`m looking for a friend named Billy Blake, I was told he is staying at your foster home."
"He was here a week ago but not anymore, he got into a fight and got moved to a Group home. I will give you the number of the group home."
Third time`s the charm, Emma calls the group home and finally got to speak to Billy Blake.
"Little Emma Swan, how are you? Where are you now?" "I`m good, I`m living with a nice couple. What about you?" "In and out of different homes. Still looking for answers.
Emma and Billy talked for another hour when Billy had to head off and after that Emma went back home.
Across town in the woods, Sally and Holly stood in the middle of a circle of stones trying different spells to open portals.
"Why are you helping me?" Asked Holly. "Your my sister and you would do the same for me."
Holly and Sally hugged.
After lighting all the candles, Sally started the chant.
