Chapter 2
Bloom and snow are in the enchanted forest. Bloom got to see where she was found and was happy to know that she was loved by snow and charming. everything about her sister and she hasn't even met her yet she didn't want to know her. but she would do it for her mother and father. Well snow and charming. she met regina mother cora. And now they must find another way back home before cora gets there before them. They made it to the came they were staying at. only to find everyone dead. Bloom sighed and wondered who had done this. .
"Cora did. Their hearts… They were ripped out. This is her magic, twisted and evil. We have to stop her." said snow
"Too late. She killed them. She killed them all." said Mulan
"Well, we have to stop her before she hurts anyone else!" said snow
"hey guys I found a live one!" said bloom
Bloom rushes towards a stack of bodies and debris, under which she sees someone waving their hand. Aurora helps bloom free the person, who turns out to be Hook. Hook looked to see the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life. But not the time to be thinking like that. he needed to get the stuff so he can go and get the job done so he was able to get what he wanted. He wanted to kill the crocodile. Bloom blue eyes looked to the man there. She wondered if he was ok. But she wondered why he is the only one left alive. as they helped him out and took him to a table. While bloom was eyeing him with wonderment. She felt something to a connection to him. but she was ignoring it. while bloom pulled Mulan to the side to see what information she could gather on him. but there was not much on him as she handed him a cup.
"I can't thank you enough for your kindness. Fortune, it seems, has seen fit to show me favour." Said hook
"An island full of corpses. You're the only one to escape. How exactly did that happen?" asked bloom
Hook looked up and couldn't help but marvel at the beauty in front of him. he never seen a woman like her before. While the sun glinted off her hair that reminded him of flames. It matched her sky-blue eyes. He swallows thickly and knew that he needed to keep his head on tight because he has a feeling this woman might not take what he said or says to be truth. Bloom arched a brow and wondered what this man was up to. He is good looking, that is for sure. She was ignoring the connection she had to him. but she needed to test him. and see if he was telling the truth or not. Because she has a bad feeling about this. And it has cora all over it.
"She attacked at night – slaughtered everyone in one fell swoop. When she started ripping out people's hearts, I hid under the bodies of those who had already been killed. Pretended to be dead myself. Mercifully, the ruse worked." Said hook
"So much for fortune favoring the brave." Said bloom
"It was all I could do to survive." Said hook
Bloom sighed she didn't want to go this route but it seemed that she was going to have to. as she leaned over and looked into his eyes and ran her hand down his face and took it in her hand. Hook gumlped he sensed danger and power coming off this woman. And oddly it was a turn on for him. this angelic woman was touching him. snow snickered her daughter knew what she was doing. and it seemed that she was going to make a point acrossed. Even though it was not the way she would do it. but it was the way she was trained and how she did things. If it was going to get things acrossed this mans head then so be it. as bloom narrowed her eyes.
"let me tell you a secret sweetheart. I'm damned good when I know someone is lying to me. And when those who has tried, they failed. And it never ends pretty for them." purred bloom
"I'm telling the truth." Said hook
"If you say so. I can make things rather unpleasant for you." said bloom
"We should leave and go somewhere else." Said snow
Bloom yanked hook by the hair when he didn't say anything else. As she dragged him off and waved her hands and tied him to a tree with magical rope. Snow snickered that was her beloved daughter. Hook was so turned on right now. this woman was doing things to him. making him feel things he hasn't felt in a very long time. He felt connected to her in some way. He needed to know that. but his hate for rumplestilskin was more on his mind. bloom knew what she was doing. and it was going to make him speak. Plus if she knew what was in the woods from her own magical realm. There are a bunch of horny beings from what she was feeling that was searching for a lover.
"I already told you. I'm just a blacksmith." Said hook
"Oh yes I am sure you are sweetheart. Well, if you don't want to talk to us. Well, you will talk to a bunch of horny ogres when they make you, their bitch. Hmm that sounds appealing right now." said bloom
Snow gawked at what she just heard. but it was something to get him to talk to them. hook looked at them and wondered if they were being serious. But it seemed that this hot woman is basically speaking the truth. She would leave him here to be a sacrifice to the horny ogres. And that is something he didn't want. Even though he shouldn't speak the truth. While bloom arched a brow and wondered if he was going to speak to them. She was using the best way she knew how. Since she had not much to work with. She knew there was something about him. but she was trying to get him to confess to her and them to see if he would help. As they were walking away that was when he decided to talk.,
"Good for you! You bested me. I can count the amount of people who've done that on one hand." Said hook
"If you're trying to be a smart ass its not funny. Who the hell are you?" asked bloom
"Killian Jones, but most people have taken to call me by my more colourful moniker – Hook." Said hook
"hook?" asked snow
"Check my satchel." Said hook
"you mean like in captain hook?" asked bloom
"Ah, so you've heard of me." Purred hook
Bloom slapped him for even daring to go and flirt with her. hook smirked oh he liked her out of all of them. She was the best looking one. Almost angelic. Hook didn't know what he was feeling for her. but it was a special connection. But he didn't know if he wanted to explore it with her just yet. But right now, she was being defensive and smartly so. She is trained to look out for stuff like this. He wondered how she was able to sense stuff like this. And how she was in the art of interrogation as well. bloom sighed of course the one hot guy she likes is captain freaking hook. Snow pulled out his hook and gasped. Bloom sighed and was going to give him a chance since he confessed.
"You better hurry up sweetheart. They're getting closer. So, unless you want to be their bitch, you better start talking." Said bloom
"Cora wanted me to gain your trust, so I could learn everything there is to know about your Storybrooke. She didn't want any surprises when she finally got over there." Said hook
"She can't get there bloom destroyed the wardrobe." Said snow
"Ah, but the enchantment remains. Cora gathered the ashes. She's going to use them to open up a portal. Now, if you'll kindly cut me loose." Said hook
Bloom pinched the bridge of her nose how could she miss something like that. and now she was going to have to figure this one out. hook looked to her and wondered who she would destroy of something like that in the first place. He knew she had something in her, that is power. but he didn't know what she is. She is not like her mother, that is for sure. He could tell she was blood adopted by the snow white. But he would have to say she is a lovely woman. She was something he would love to have by his side and have her hand. But for now, he needed to be free. And maybe travel with them. He wondered if they would offer him a better deal.
"No. We should leave him here to die. To pay for all the lives that he took." Said Mulan
"That was Cora, not me." Said hook
Bloom rolled her eyes and was going to leave him there as she waved everyone to follow her. She didn't have the time to deal with a damn captain pirate. And a smug one at that. She knew he was good looking. But she was not going to tell him that. even though she was also flirting with him. but she knew he needed a bit more to get him talking. Bad enough she has a newly blood adopted son who is her sister kid. Snow was wondering what their next step was going to be.
"Wait. Wait! You need me alive." said hook
"And why is that may I ask?" asked bloom
"Because we both want the same thing – to get back to your land." Said hook
"You would say anything to save your sweet ass from those horny ogres. Why are we supposed to believe you now?" asked bloom
"I arranged for transport with Cora. But, seeing how resourceful you are, I'll offer you the same deal. I'll help you, if you promise to take me along." Said hook
Bloom narrowed her eyes and was trying to figure out what he was trying to do now. She didn't know if she should take his word for what he was saying. He is a freaking pirate. Well, the pirate of them all that is. Snow sighed and not sure what they were going to do. and why would they trust captain freaking hook out of everyone to trust. But he was probably the only one they could use. He has resources to go under and knows of places to find things. So maybe this might be a good idea. Bloom was still thinking if they should bring him along.
"How are you going to help us get home?" asked snow
"The ashes will open a portal, but, to find your land, she needs more. There's an enchanted compass. Cora seeks it. I'll help you obtain it before she does." Said hook
"So, Cora won't make it to Storybrooke, and we'll be one step closer to getting home." Said bloom
Bloom thought about this and wondered if it would be the right thing to do. hook watched her and knew she the leader in all of this. And that she was far from stupid. She had seen battle and knew what to look for when it came down to people like him who were trying to do what he was trying to do. cora didn't think about that did she. That there was going to be someone who was able to spot out the things he was doing. so yeah, he knew he was screwed when she figured it out without him even spewing what he was trying to make them to believe in his words. He was already screwed when it came down to seeing her. her beauty already has him under her spell.
"Sounds too good to be true." Said snow
"There's only one way to find out." said hook
"Now you will tell me one thing, and whatever you say, I better believe it – why does Captain Hook want to go to Storybrooke?" demanded bloom
"To exact revenge on the man who took my hand… Rumpelstiltskin." Said hook
Hook said this while looking straight into blooms eyes. Bloom sighed and knew he was speaking the truth. This gold guy who happens to be Rumpelstiltskin everyone was after him for one thing or another. She hasn't even met the guy yet. Blood sighed and snapped her fingers and hook is no longer tied to the tree. Hook winked and thanked her for letting him go. He had a feeling she would understand and knew he was speaking the truth. Snow sighed and wondered if her little broom had a thing for the pirate. But then again, she wouldn't put it past bloom. But she looked and saw some form of connection between the two. And then it hit her, the two of them are soulmates. Oh, shit this was going to go over well with charming when he finds out.
Meanwhile a few hours later
bloom and company are traveling through the forest with Hook in tow. She has a magical rope around him. while hook was talking away. Snow sighed and wondered what they are going to be doing now. She wondered where he was going to be taking them. It seemed that he knew what was going on and where to go. since he has more knowledge in the lands that were ravaged by the curse. Bloom sighed she was hoping she didn't make the wrong choice in letting hook go. since he is a pirate, he does what is to save his sorry ass. be she admired that in some way.
"Up ahead. We'll find the compass just over the ridge." Said hook
"Do you get the feeling he's leading us exactly where Cora wants us? That this whole thing's a trap?" asked snow
"It's definitely a trap. As long as we know they're trying to play us, we can-" said bloom
"Stay one step ahead of them." said snow
Bloom only nodded to her mother. She had to let her know that she would burn him alive if he tried to do anything to fuck them over. They come to the edge of the forest, where they see a beanstalk in the distance. Bloom gawked at what she was seeing before her. Since she is a being of the magical realm, she was not sure she ever thought she would see a real beanstalk in her very long life. But there was one right in front of her. well far away. But she had this feeling that she was going to have to climb it. snow smiled it seemed that they don't have beanstalks in the magical realm or anywhere else. So, she was seeing her daughter look in shock at looking at it.
"Let me guess – the compass is up there? And I can't fly to get it?" asked bloom
"Oh, yeah. And nope you can't." Said hook
"So, how do we get to it if I can't fly?" asked bloom
"It's not the climb you need to worry about. It's the giant at the top." Said hook
Bloom sighed as she stepped over the edge as they continued to go to where they needed to go, to the beanstalk. She was annoyed that she was not able to fly up. there must have been fairies that did try. Snow smiled to her daughter to let her know it was going to be ok. She could do it if she wanted to. she didn't wish to do it. bloom looked to hook and they continued on their way. hook was hoping it was going to be her to go up with him. He didn't want none of the others. He just wanted her. and he always gets what he wants. And he has a feeling that this was going to be tricky to getting her to be with him. She was very very guarded as if she had been through a lot in her life. But then again, he wondered how she would fly up. He didn't understand that part. Maybe magic or something like that.
Meanwhile an hour later
Bloom snow along with Aurora, Mulan, and Hook approach the base of the beanstalk and look up, seeing that it extends through the clouds. Bloom tilted her head to the side and wondered why it felt like death than what the stories ever said it was. Hook was mor curious about bloom on what she was thinking. Even though he wanted to know what was going through her mind than anything. Snow looked at her daughter seeing her look at her first beanstalk and looking at it as if he was some science experiment. She even took a picture of it as well. She was unable to use any of her technology here. She tried but the phone did take pictures though.
It's a little freakier than I remember from the story. And they have none of these in the magical realm." Said bloom
"Reminds me of death." said Mulan
"Encouraging." Said snow
"Well, your compass awaits. Shall we?" asked hook
Hook was leading the group. Since he knew what needed to be done. He knew they would be able to take them along. Well, that is what he hoped. They are much more pleasant to be around. Plus, he didn't enjoy being forced to have sex with cora. He shivered from the thoughts of what she did to him more than once. He knew bloom is not like that. She seemed to be a kind person who has been hurt more than once in her life. But he didn't understand the magical realm comment. There is more than one realm. Well of course since there is story brooke. So, there must be more than one realm. Bloom was wondering about all of this.
"Wait. If these beans create…portals, why not just pick one and go home? Why the compass?" asked bloom
"Because there aren't any more beans. Whatever story you think you know, my dear, is most certainly wrong." Said hook
"There was a guy named Jack, and a cow, and something about evil giant with a treasure and a golden goose. …Or harp." Said bloom
Bloom looked to hook and wondered if the story was wrong from what she was reading as a child. hook blinked from what was said. Wow they have mucked up everything in the stories back in that realm. But it would seem that he would have to be the one who correct her on this one. Bloom sighed and have a feeling that the story she knew as a child and what she read to her children was wrong. So she was wondering if she was going to be hearing the real story.
"Sounds like a lovely tale. But the truth's a little bit more gruesome. The giants grew the beans, but, rather than use them for good, they used them to plunder all the lands. Jack, was a man who fought a terrible war, defeating all but one of the evil giants. The beans were destroyed by the giants as they died. If they couldn't have their magic, then nobody could. It's really very bad form." Explained hook
"Evil giants, who made magic portal beans? Why doesn't anyone just go up and grow some more?" asked bloom
"Because one giant survived. The strongest and most terrible of them all. And we'll have to get past him to-" said hook
"The magic compass." Said snow
Bloom looked to her mother and knew this was going to be a interesting new experience. Her life was boring since the end of the battle with sky and diaspro. So this was going to make things interesting. And a good looking pirate who happens to be captain hook. She would of thought he look like a man the movies that looked like well gay. But that didn't bother her any she has gay friends, well for the longest time she thought genyu was. But she was wrong when he and Misaki hook up since they were soulmates. Shocking her daughter and genyu. But it makes sense.
"Indeed. The treasure remains, and amongst it is the compass. Now it will guide us to your land. Cora has the means to open a portal with the wardrobe ashes, but she can't find your land without the compass. Once we get it, steal the ashes from her and we're on our way." said hook
"How do we know you're not just using us to get the compass for Cora?" asked Mulan
"Because you four are far safer company. All I need is a ride back. I'll swear allegiance to whomever gets me there first." Said hook
Bloom sighed and was not sure what to think about this one. But she knew what she needed to do. hook was hoping she would be the one to go up with him. He didn't want none of the others. He just wanted to get to know her more. Plus, he wanted to somewhat explore the connection that they share together. She was not sure what it was just yet. But he was trying his best to ignore it. but it was nagging him. not as if it was a bad thing. He was enjoying having a connection with someone like bloom. Plus, she seemed like a good person.
"Then we'd better start climbing." Said bloom
"Right, so… I failed to mention that the giant enchanted the beanstalk to repel intruders." Said hook
"Alright, so how the hell do we get up there?" asked bloom
"I've got a counter spell from Cora. If you'd be so kind." Said hook
Bloom was looking up at the beanstalk and was wondering how they were going to be getting up there. There was going to be some way. as she was getting a feel of the magic around it. and it was strong. But it was magic she didn't know how to use. Hook sighed this was where he comes in., he really liked being in blooms company. She is a very pleasant person. but he has a feeling from what he knows so far and what he felt from her that she can be rather deadly if you are on her bad side. But he still wondered what she meant by flying. Does she know how to fly or something. Hook holds up his wrists, which are still tied together. Bloom snapped her fingers and the rope was gone. He holds up one of his arms, showing a glowing cuff.
"Thank you, milady. I've got one more of these. Cora was to accompany me. So… Which one of you four lovelies shall take her place? Hm? Go on, fight it out. Don't be afraid to, you know, really get into it." said hook
Bloom narrowed his eyes at him and wanted to slap him for even daring to suggest something like that. but she sent a little fire his way. hook stomped it out and looked at bloom. He arched his brow at her and knew he messed up there. Bloom waved her mother and the other two over to have a talk to see who wanted to go up. she was going to give each person a try. But she knew she was going to be the one to go up. while snow sighed and knew she was not going to be the one to do so.
"All due respect, I'm the best equipped to go. How many wars have you been through?" asked snow
"far to many to count mulan. So try not to insult me again. By the way before anyone of you decide to speak their peace im the one to go up. I am crafty and I have enough experience to do what is needed to be done. So anything in that bag to help me here." Said bloom
"This – powder made from poppies. He has to inhale it." said Mulan
"now listen to me. You get my mother home if I am not back in 10 hours got it. and don't argue she needs to get back home." Demanded bloom
"Ladies. In this world, we are slaves to time. And ours is running out. In other words, tick tock." Said hook
Mulan looked at bloom and saw someone far more experienced than herself. And nodded to her to say she agreed. She could tell she is a high ranked soldier from some sort of army. She tried to as about what she is and what she does. But she blocked them from not telling them anything. But that is her own business. But now she knew she wanted to know more. but for now, she was going to have to try and see if she would be able to get snow if she was not back in time. Bloom nodded and took the powder from her to take up with her. as she made her way over to hook and was ready to have an adventure to go and meet a beanstalk. Bloom handed her wrist over. While hook placed it on his shoulder.
"I was hoping it'd be you." Purred hook
"shut it you walking talking boner. And get it don't and over with." Snapped bloom
"This will allow you to climb. There are other dangers. Thankfully, you've got me to protect you. I can't climb one-handed, can I?" said hook
Bloom huffed and knew that hook needed his hand. So he handed it back over to him. As he placed it back to where it belonged. Hook smirked and knew that should get it. But it was still weirding him out that he has some connection to this woman before him. He knew that she was someone to not be messed with. He has a feeling that cora is messing with someone who is very powerful. And that can kill her if she wanted to. Bloom sighed, she had to say he was smug. But she didn't like having a connection to him though.
"Don't think I'm taking my eyes off you for a second sweetheart." Said bloom
"I would despair if you did." Purred hook
Bloom and hook went to go and climb the beanstalk. While the others was going to wait for them to come back with what was needed. Hook was actually happy for once to have someone like bloom to climb the beanstalk with. But for now he was not going to show what he was feeling. He has a feeling she doesn't trust him. But is attracted to him. Since he wondered if she was flirting with him when she calls him sweetheart. But he was not going to have to much hope into it. Shes a goddess to milah ever was. She was a rare beauty and wondered if she would ever give him a chance. Probably not she is a royal.
Meanwhile a little while later
Boom and Hook, who are still climbing, have managed to reach the upper part of the beanstalk. Bloom complaining mentally that she is not able to fly up the beanstalk. It would make things a lot easier. She could of flew up here and brought hook up with her. But nope she had to climb. That was just the biggest pain in the ass that she had to do. Hook smiled he could see that she was need in thought and was annoyed about something. He still didn't understand why she said she could fly. Even if she could they would never make it to the top if they flew. Many fairies and pixis have tried to do so and failed in doing so.
"First beanstalk? Well, you never forget your first. You know, most men would take your silence as off-putting, but I love a challenge." Said hook
"Yeah whatever. I'm just thinking that's all. And you're the first person I didn't want to be climbing a beanstalk with." Said bloom
Hook sighed he could sense that she has been through a lot. And he wanted to know more of her. He could sense she is special. But oddly enough looks like she is blood adopted to snow white. But there is a whole lot more to this woman before him. And he felt connected to her. No woman ever made him feel that he was connected to someone before. So this was something he wished to explore. But he needed her to speak to him. But there was something else about her. He has a feeling that she could be deadly. That was something else he was able to tell about her. But for now he was going to try and coax her to speak to him. Bloom sighed he was not going to shut up. She knew that for a fact. But for now she was going to continue on this stupid climb. And most of all she hated feeling connected to this man.
"No, you're afraid. Afraid to talk – to reveal yourself. Trust me – things'll be a lot smoother if you do." Said hook
"I'm taking a wild guess no one seemed to be trusting you.?" Asked bloom
"Ah, the pirate thing. Well, I don't need you to share. You're something of an open book." Said hook
Bloom snorted from what he had just said. But for now that is was he was thinking. And she has been told before that she is a open book. But she didn't like people telling her it. Hook smirked and saw her eye twitch in annoyance from what he had just said. And knew that he hit a sore spot. But he was able to sense there is some magic on her. Well more magic than cora does. But for now he needed to her to open up to him. He wanted to know everything about her. And that is something he was not going to hand over to cora or anything.
"Am I now?" asked bloom
"Quite. Let's see – you volunteered to come up here because you were the most motivated. You need to get back to a child. Or should I say children?" Asked hook
Bloom eye twitched again from how this man was able to read something from her. Even though her blood adopted mother was the reason why he knew she had children. Hell, she even adopted her nephew because regina asked her if she would if anything ever happened to her. Well she is the evil queen after all. So it would be understandable. Hook smirked oh he was getting somewhere. But he was not sure if she would open up even if he was digging deep as much as he was. He wondered why she looked sad about children. He wondered if one of them are missing or something. Then he remembered snow saying something about two of her children are missing.
"You were just listening in." said bloom
"Ah, but you don't want to abandon him the way you were abandoned." Said hook
"I wasn't abandoned as you say, neither was my blood adopted sister. My story is a long and very complicated one." Said bloom
Hook blinked at what she had just said. That was interesting. He was wondering what and why would her story be complicated. Hook knew that was more to this woman and he wondered what it was. While bloom sighed and knew he wanted to know her. And not give the information to cora. But she was not going to trust a pirate that she has a obvious connection with. She don't know what sort of one just yet but it was a interesting on. Hook smiled she is just so pretty a goddess in his eyes. He never seen a woman like her before.
"Like I said, an open book." Said hook
"How would you know that?" asked bloom
"I spent many years in Neverland – home of the Lost Boys. They all share the same look in their eyes… The look you get when you've been left alone." Said hook
Bloom wondered what neverland was like and wondered if she should ask more about it. And wondered if peter pan was a good guy or a bad guy. It seemed that things are very different from what she grew up knowing. Hell she didn't know she was first blood adopted by snow and charming. That was a eye openr. And oddly enough she is the true savior to the people she just met. She hasn't even met the rumplestiltskin guy yet. But from what she knew his name was gold. Interesting name to go by. But she could see why he wanted to revenge against the guy. But there was more to him to wanting to kill off the guy who took his hand.
"well my world is far from neverland lets put it that way," said bloom
"But an orphan's an orphan. Love has been all too rare in your life, hasn't it? You ever even been in love?" asked hook
"that's none of your business, but no I have never been in love." Snapped bloom
Hook swears he saw fire in her eyes from what she just snapped at him about. But then again that was just something he was just seeing. But for now he was wondering who could of hurt her so bad to make her lie about something like that. But the look in her eyes that showed her pain. But she hid it behind anger. Bloom sighed and knew that he must of lost someone he loved. But for her it was completely fucked up on how she was used and made to believe that she was loved. Sky that bastard for everything that he done to her. It makes her sick still to think about it. Plus it was not to long ago that she tossed him and diaspro into the gates of hell.
Meanwhile a hour later
Hook and bloom reach the top of the beanstalk, to find a giant, destitute looking castle. Bloom looked around and wondered what the hell happened to this place. It looked like it was once a nice place. But for now she was wondering where they are going to find what they are needing. She just hope it was not going to be to hard. But then again her luck it was not going to be easy. Hook sighed as he helped bloom over. Her hands are soft as silk. But he could tell they are battle worn as well. So she has been in battle. Maybe he could asked what sort of battle she has been in. or maybe more battle than he could even handle if she did tell him.
"so what happened here?" asked bloom
"It's where the final battle was. Give me your hand." Said hook
Hook took blooms hand and was starting to clean it up. As he dumped rum on her hands as bloom felt worst. While hook smirked and knew that she was not going to be too hurt by what he was doing. But then again there was something about her that he liked and most of all connected to her. But for now he needed to make sure her hand was going to be ok. Because of the giant was able to sense blood. As he tied something around her hand so she would be ok. It made him feel good about himself that he was doing this for her. The cut on her hand seemed to be a reopening of a wound. A wounded that was starting to heal but not enough to be reinjured.
"Now here's the plan – we wait for the giant to fall asleep. And when he does, we'll sneak past him into his cave. It's where the treasures are – where the compass lies." Said hook
"I don't have time to wait for a giant to fall asleep. The powder Mulan gave us – we need to use it. We got to knock him out." Said bloom
"Well, that's riskier." Said hook
Bloom snorted he hasn't been on the stuff that she has been doing most of her life and the last few years and since she was a kid. Yeah this was not something she hasn't done before but she was happy to try it out. But she was not much on time since they need to get back. And beat a bitch names cora. Hell she was probably knowing that hook was doing this and it would end badly for them. Hook sighed and knew that bloom was able to care for herself. But there was something he wanted to do was to care for her. He didn't understand why. But there was more to the feeling he was feeling and that was going to lead him to something he never thought he would feel.
"Than waiting for a giant to fall asleep probably scratching his giant ass and letting out a few giant farts when we need him to?" asked bloom
"Point taken. Oo, you're a tough lass. You'd make a hell of a pirate." Said hook
Hook handed the powder back over to bloom to give her the edge that she needed to get the giant to fall asleep. Hook smiled he liked her sense of humor as well. She was not like all of the woman that he has ever met before. Bloom sighed and knew that he was being serious on the pirate thing. But that was not her thing to do. But for now she was going to have to go into this and see how this was going to go. Hook sighed and knew there was much more to this woman and he wanted to know what it was. Bloom looked down to the tattoo on his arm and wondered who the woman name was on his arm to get a tattoo on his arm of her.
"Who's Milah on the tattoo?" asked bloom
"Someone from long ago." Said hook
"Where is she?" asked bloom
"she's gone," said hook
"Gold. Rumpelstiltskin. He took more than your hand from you, didn't he? That's why you want to kill him." Said bloom
Hook turned around and had to think on what she was saying. It was as if she knew what love was. And she was not going to tell him what had happened. But she was very smart when it came down to the fact that she figured out the real reason why he wanted to kill off the dark one. Even though it was also for his hand as well. But it was more than that. It was what the dark one took from him. Yes he loved her deeply. But there was something with bloom. Something much much more. But for now he was going to dig a little bit more to what she was feeling and how she knew of what he was feeling. Bloom sighed and knew she was about to walk into something worst.
"For someone who's never been in love, you're quite perceptive, aren't you?" asked hook
"like I said my story is not a pretty one or a nice one. But you could say I was once upon another time long ago." Said boom
Hook looked at bloom and saw this haunted look in her eyes as if she was stuck in a memory. Her life was one that he wished he would know. But she has seen hardships and he wanted to know all of them. But he had a feeling trust is a hard thing for her to give someone. Most of all someone like him. Hook sighed and ran his hand through his hair and waved for her to go on. So they could get this done and overwith. He had a feeling that cora must of figured out that he must of betrayed her. Plus bloom is good company. So this was something that he was going to go for. He was hoping she would take him with her. But he was not sure if she would go for that. Bloom sighed and they continued into the castle where the sleeping or awake giant lies.
Meanwhile a little while later
Bloom who is armed with the poppy powder, has perched herself on top of a statue near the entrance of the castle. She was wishing she was able to fly right now. But she was not sure what was going to happen if she did try to use any of her powers. She just has to do what she has to do. But if hook fucked her over he was not going to like what she would do to him. Hook, still on the ground, has found a bone. He was ready to start and piss off a giant. He knew bloom knew what she was doing. He has a feeling this was something nothing new to her. But in a very different way though. He just didn't know how he was going to handle everything if she dared to tell him what she been through and done in her very long life. Bloom smirked this was going to be fun,
"You ready?" asked hook
"yup ready as I am ever going to be." Said bloom
Hook bangs a metal shield with the bone, the noise causing the giant to awaken. The giant exits the castle, and bloom realizes that the giant is far taller than the statue she's sitting on. Shit she cant fly. If she was able to do so she would be able to do this much easier. But then again she said fuck it and transformed and tossed the poppy in the giants face as the giant fell on hook. Bloom flew down to see if hook was ok. As she detransformed. But hook popped own and showed he was ok.
"He's out cold. I don't mean to upset you, bloom, but I think we make quite the team. Didn't know you where a fairy." Said hook
"shut up and lets go and get this thing," said bloom
Hook snickered and fallowed bloom. He didn't know what kind of fairy she is but she was a beautiful one. But it was a good move that she chose to do that. Even though it could of ended badly for her. But it was a good move. While bloom sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. Now he knew that she was a fairy. But it didn't matter it was going to come out sooner or later. But for now it was time to get to work to finding the compass. As they made their way into the palace as she looked around and took notice that there was treasure all over the place. Yeah a good place for a freaking pirate would be at.
"They kill all the giant housekeepers, too? How we going to find a compass in this mess?" asked bloom
"By looking. Start searching. I wonder how much treasure we could carry down the beanstalk. …In addition to the compass, of course." Said hook
"Why and I not surprised you wanted to do that pirate." Said bloom
Hook snickered a what she had just said. Oh how he loved how much he loved her sense of humor. And how she was able to basically castrate him with her words, it is a turn on for him. Even though if she does leave him here he would forgive her. He had a feeling that she has suffered greatly. But he would be angry for a while but he would forgive her sooner or later. Bloom sighed as she looked around and wondered where they are going to find this stupid thing. They come across a skeleton holding a sword. 'Jack' is etched into the blade. Bloom arched a brow and wondered who in the world would this poor soul would be.
"What the hell?" asked bloom
"That… Would be Jack." Said hook
"as in the jack?" asked bloom
"The giant killer." Said hook
Bloom looked at the poor soul that was jack as she sent his soul to the soul socitey since it was still around. Hook took notice at what she did. Shit she is a death god as well. That all he needed. But he didn't mind them when he came a crossed one. But you don't see them in neverland much since it was a place where they don't go. But some of them are good drinking buddies. Bloom sighed and wondered how. But then she answered her own question when it came down to how he died.
"With that toothpick? I seen bigger swords do worst." Said bloom
"Well, it packs quite a wallop. You'd be surprised." Said hook
When Hook goes to keep walking while bloom was looking around and trying to get a feel of things around her. But there was not much to go on other than a load of shit, bloom stops him by pulling him into her arms. Bloom growled and wondered what the fuck he was doing. And why is she in his arms. Hook had to say he enjoyed her being in his arms. But he had a feeling this was not going to end well for him. Because it was something that was going to be ending up hurting him in a place where he does not need to be hurt at.
"It's about bloody time." Purred hook
"It's a trip wire. Quite a security system." Said bloom
Bloom punched hook in the nuts as hook groaned and had to say he loved her fire. She was starting to grow on him. And she would make a wonderful pirate. But he would never see her as one. Because he didn't think it was her thing. But he would still love to be with her. Not just for a one night thing. It was going to be more than that for him. Bloom sighed as she pushed her hair over her shoulder and knew that she shouldn't of done that. But it was something that she needed to do and felt like he needed to get the fuck off of her and respect her personal space.
"Well, that's a plausible excuse for grabbing me, but next time don't stand on ceremony." Said hook
"whatever you say boner boy. Lets find the compass and lets get the fuck out of here and go home." Said bloom
But that was when bloom felt the room shake and hook looked at her and wondered what in the world was going on. That means that the giant was awake and it means it was showtime for them to fight to the death. Or whoever it was going to win. A bunch of rocks fell on hook. And the giant grabbed bloom and brought her up to his face.
"hey buddy I'm not what you think I am." Said bloom
"You're a thief, and you poisoned me. So yeah, I'm pretty sure you're exactly what I think." Said giant
"No. Look, you have a compass. I need it." Said bloom
"I don't care what you need." Said giant
The giant tightens his grip, as bloom struggles to breathe. As she squirms and tried to get the hell free. She didn't want to use her powers on him. But if she needed to she would do it. The giant was feeling powers on her he didn't know what sort of powers. But bloom was going to try and reason with him as much as she was able to do so. And in hope she would reach some form of kidness in his heart to let her go and give her what she needed.
"I need to get back to my children. And two of them are missing and I need to save them. Please let me go! Don't you have family?" cried bloom
"No. Because humans killed them all." Said giant
"I'm not human you moron!" cried bloom
bloom vision begins to fade, when she bites the giant's hand. He drops her, and she runs in the direction of Jack's skeleton. She jumps over the trip wire and grabs Jack's sword, which bloom turned into her fairy form and then uses to set off the trap. The cage falls onto the giant, trapping him. As she look at him and wondered if she would be able to reason with him now. The giant was gawking she was a fairy. She was a freaking fairy all along. And he was calling her a human.
"I can tell by your face you know what this is. Let me guess – it's dipped in some sort of poison. You have a compass. I need it." Said bloom
"You're going to kill me either way. Go ahead. kill me." Said bloom
"you don't know me good sir.:" said bloom
Bloom was feeling what this man was feeling. He was just alone and no one around him. She couldn't kill him. She understood why he was being the way he was. His family was killed by humans. Even though bloom was not a human. That was something that she was going to make a point acrossed. She was in her fairy form and was willing to help him if he helped her. But then again there was more that she wanted to ask him. But maybe they would cross paths again. Bloom sighed and knew that this man was just as damaged as she is.
"I know your kind. They massacred us, and destroyed our beans." Said gaint
"I heard it the other way. And if you can tell im not human. Far from it." Said bloom
Bloom helped him out as she used her powers to rise the cage and set the giant free. As he handed her the compass and understood his pain. The giant made a doorway for bloom. And the two came up with a plan for hook. After she did that she left to go and free hook. But she didn't feel guilty for doing what she was about to do. She didn't trust him. He was working for cora. And she was not going to chance him taking what she worked so hard for. Well also made a new friend. She gave something to the giant to show he is a friend of hers if something ever made him end up in Storybrooke and she was not there to help him. One of her friends and family would know the sigh.
"You are bloody brilliant. Amazing. May I see it? The compass." Said hook
Bloom sighed and knew that she needed to play it off and she took the compass out and showed it to hook. Hook looked at it and had to say it was lovely. Bloom put it back into her jacket pocket and looked around the place and wondered what she could locked him up with. She knew that this was the wrong thing to do. But she needed to get back to for her tamaki and draco. She needed to save them from whatever fate that was befalling them.
"It's more beautiful than legend." Said hook
Hook extends his hand to bloom, but, instead of taking it, bloom grabs a nearby shackle and chains Hook to the wall. Bloom placed a kido spell around it as she transformed into her fairy form and she put a timer on the chains to make sure it would give her the time she needed to get the fuck away from here. Hook was confused at what was going on and why she was doing this. What did he do to make her not trust him. Well other than the cora thing. He was not going to turn her into cora, bloom sighed this was something that she needed to do. She needed to get away from him. He was making her feel things that she didn't want to feel. Bloom closed her eyes and showed him her memories and see if that would make him see reason. Once she was done. Hook shook the memories away. No wonder why she is the way she is.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" asked hook
"Hook, I… I… I can't… you now know why I am the way I am." Said bloom
"bloom, look at me. Have I told you a lie? I brought you here. I risked my own safety to help you. The compass is in your hand. Why do this to me now?" asked hook
Bloom sighed and was feeling gulty about all of this and knew that she was trying to get away from him. She didn't trust him. But he never told her a lie. But it didn't mean that she was not going to let him go. Her new friend promised to let him go when it was the time. But she couldn't trust him with him working for cora. Yes he did help her to get to this point. But there was more to this than what she was trying to get away from him for. Hook was making her feel things that she never felt before this connection that they have. Plus who knows if he would turn her into cora.
"I can't take a chance that I'm wrong about you. I'm sorry." Said bloom
"You're sorry? You're sorry?! I got you here! I got you the compass!" growled hook
"I got the compass." Said bloom
"Laufeyson!, laufeyson!, laufeyson!" yelled hook
Bloom waved goodbye as winked to her new friend. As she flew down to her blood adopted mother and they took off to go and find the rest of what they are going to need to get back home. Snow sighed and not sure how she felt on how bloom did to it was probably for the best. Bloom sighed and made her way to where they are headed next. While hook was still locked up but she knew he would be free soon. And he was not going to be happy. She was giving him a test. If he didn't tell cora what her life was and what she showed him. Them she knew he was a changed man. But she was going to have to see what was going to happen.
To be continued.
