Chapter 13

It was night time and Killian and Calista were stood on a road in the forest as Mr Gold slowly made his way towards them.


"It would appear I've won," Killian said.


Mr Gold held up Excalibur, "Oh, did you? Last time we fought, this sword ended up at your neck," Mr Gold said.


"You won a battle, not the war. I took the dagger for you and now you have nothing and never will," Killian said.


"Watch it, pirate," Mr Gold said as he attempted to run Killian through with the sword.


Killian magicked himself out of the way and appeared behind him, "Oh! There's the Rumpelstiltskin we know and love! This is why Calista's left you. She knows what kind of man you are!" Killian said.


"And what kind if that?" Mr Gold asked.


"The kind who loves his power more than anything... More than me, more than our daughter and your dead son," Calista said.


"Which is why it's so bloody satisfying to take it away from you. Mm, remember how good it felt?" Killian said.


"Power is only as good as the one who wields it and you've both done nothing but parlour tricks," Mr Gold said.


"Oh, is that right? Is that really what you think, darling? Well, I think you're really gonna like what's next. The trick where my brother gets his revenge and this time, his sister will watch it happen without stepping in the way," Calista said with a smirk.


"Oh! I love it with she's dark," Killian said.


Meanwhile, the others had regained their memories with the help of Emma and Emma remembered what the siblings were doing and they had followed Emma out of Regina's house before they split off into groups. They all agreed that they needed to find the siblings and stop them, no matter what it took. As each group when off in their own separate ways to find them they were soon tracked down by the Dark Ones and each of the Dark Ones went through a member of the search party.


Naomi and Henry were running down the street, "Emma!!" Naomi yelled.


"Mom! Help us!" Henry yelled as they walked backwards watching the Dark Ones following them.


Emma came out of the pawnshop and she saw Nimue and another Dark One about to walk through Henry and Naomi, "Henry, Naomi, don't move!" Emma said and raised her hand to stop Nimue.


"Too late for that," Nimue said as she and the other Dark One walked through Henry and Naomi before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.


"Henry! Naomi!" Emma ran towards them, "Are you both okay!?" Emma asked.


"Yeah... W-We think so," Henry said.


Soon the others and the dwarfs walked up to Emma, Henry and Naomi who are outside Gold's shop.


"What just happened to us?!" Regina asked.


Mr Gold walked up to the group, "I think I may have the answer to that. Check your wrists," Mr Gold said.


Regina, Robin, Mary Margaret, Will, David, Naomi and the dwarfs checked their wrists as Emma checked Henrys to see that they all had the same mark.



"What is that?" Emma asked.


"That... Is the mark of Charon," Mr Gold said.


"Charon? He was the ferryman in the old myths. He navigated a boat... To the Underworld," Henry said.


"Smart lad. You see, the Dark Ones only have a... A temporary pass into this world, like a tourist visa. The only way for them to stay... Is to trade places with living souls," Mr Gold said.


"Meaning us?" David said.


"Exactly," He pointed to the moon, "And when the moon reaches its peak, the ferry from the Underworld will arrive and drag us down there," Mr Gold said.


"That doesn't sound good," Will said.


"Speaking as one who's died and been there, it's not," Mr Gold said.


"So, how do we stop it?" Regina asked.


"We can't. The Underworld is worse than you can possibly imagine. It's gonna make you wish the old stories of fire and brimstone were true. It's gonna make you wish for death and then the realisation will hit... That death has already some and this fresh torture is all that's left," Mr Gold said.


"Gold, you're scaring Henry and Naomi," Emma said.


"Good, because we should all be scared. This is Death itself. This is a fight we cannot win," Mr Gold said.


"No. I'm not marked. I'm not going to give up. There has to be something we can do," Emma said.


"You're right. There is something. Use this time wisely. Use it to say goodbye," Mr Gold said as he walked back into his shop leaving the others standing on the road.


Naomi looked at them then at the shop before she followed her father, "Since when do you give up?" Naomi said.


"What do I have to fight for now?" Mr Gold asked as he looked at her.


"Me! You fight for me! Prove me wrong!" Naomi said.


"I'm tired of having to prove anything... I've done nothing but lie and hurt you and your mother... I don't deserve a chance to prove anything... I don't deserve you or her and you deserve better than me," Mr Gold said.


Naomi looked at him, "No... No, it's not about proving anything to me... Or mum... Prove it to yourself! You believe you're this coward... This coward who ran from the ogre wars, who lost his lost, who lost his wives, who'll lose his daughter, but that's not you... Not the true you," Naomi said.


"What do you know?" Mr Gold asked.


"I know the day Uncle Killian bested you all those years ago, you were nothing but a man who wanted his wife. You have nothing just your cane and yeah, you lost... Tragedy. You were humiliated, so bloody what?" Naomi said.


"Language!" Mr Gold said.


"No, until you're the father I loved and respected you don't get to tell me what to do. Be the man who saved my mum all those years ago, after you were humiliated, you kept her going and you're still keeping her going now," He looked at her confused, "Keep going till you see the light in the dark. Until the beast becomes the man. Those words still live on true inside of her, she wouldn't have come to the well otherwise. What are you an idiot?!" Naomi yelled.


"I'm nothing!" He answered.


"No, you were nothing. You've had nothing. You've got me and you still have mum, no matter what she says or do... Just like she had a hold on your heart when you were the Dark One, you have a hold on her heart... You just need to grab it and bring it into the light for good!" Naomi said.


"You're not making sense!" Mr Gold said as his eyes got watery.


"Work it out! You know I can't tell you what I see, you need to work it out and fast before you lose me!" She showed him the mark on her wrist, "Because this isn't going away," Naomi said and walked out.


"Naomi?" Nicholas called out and she looked at him, "Is everything okay?" He asked as he walked up to her.


"You shouldn't be here... It's not safe," Naomi said.


"I know... I was in the woods and I saw your mum... She looked..." Nicholas said.


"Different?" Nicholas nodded, "Yeah... She's... Uh, a problem," Naomi said.


"Anything I can do to help?" Nicholas asked.


"Keep yourself safe... And possibly... Away from me and my family, that way you'll be safe," Naomi said and walked away as she wiped away a tear.


Nicholas stood in the street and watched her walk away before he turned around and walked the opposite direction.


Naomi looked at him before she disappeared in smoke and appeared in Regina's vault. David flinched as she appeared right beside her, "I'm the only one with pink smoke, calm down," Naomi said as she wiped away another tear.


"W-What happened?" David asked.


"Nothing... How's it going? Distract me," Naomi said.


"We haven't found anything, really," Will said.


"Gold has to be missing something, right?" Henry asked.


"Of course, there are always loopholes... My dad loves them... And if he can find loopholes, so can we," Naomi said as she started looking in a book.


"Maybe Gold's right. Maybe this is a fight we can't win," Mary Margaret said.


"Mom, you're Snow White. You don't know how to give up. Hope is in your blood," Emma said.


Naomi was looking in a book, "Found something for my mum," She whispered and David looked at the book.


"True Love's kiss... She doesn't strike me as loving type right now, Naomi... Sorry," David said.


"I know..." Naomi said and sighed.


"I do hope, Emma, but... I don't want to spend what could be my last moments with my nose in a book. I want to make the most of my moments with my family," Mary Margaret said.


"Dinner at Granny's. That's what we should do," Henry said.


"Yeah," David closed the book he and Naomi were just looking at, "Dinner at Granny's, that's a great idea," David said.


"Can I join?... I don't want to be alone," Naomi asked.


"Of course," David said.


Emma looked down at her little brother, "What about Neal? He'll be left here all alone," Emma said.


"He won't be alone, Emma. He'll have you," Mary Margaret said.


"I will not give up on my own family," Emma said.


Mary Margaret had tears in her eyes as she handed Neal to David, "Emma, we're almost out of time and time is what's most important... Time with those we love," Mary Margaret walked to Emma and kissed her forehead, "I know you won't stop trying. And I hope you succeed, but... Promise me that you'll... Come meet us at Granny's, come and say goodbye," Mary Margaret said.


Emma was crying, "I promise," Emma said.


Mary Margaret hugged her, "I love you, Emma," Mary Margaret said.


"I love you, too," Emma said.


Mary Margaret pulled away and left with David, Henry and Naomi.



Later at the pawnshop, Mr Gold was pacing in his shop, "Calista Stiltskin. Calista Stiltskin. Calista Stiltskin," Mr Gold said.


Calista appeared on the counter and looked at him, "What is it, darling? What do you want from me on this fabulous day?" Calista asked.


Mr Gold looked at her, "I know you can't resist a deal," She looked at him intrigued, "Got your attention, haven't I? Let Naomi be free of the fate of the Underworld and I'll tell you the truth about what happened to your father about why he actually sold you," Mr Gold said.


Calista slipped off the counter and walked to him, "How would you know that?" Calista asked.


"H...He was there when I was, he was drunk when he told me," Mr Gold said.


"You can get drunk in the Underworld... Hmm... Interesting..." Calista said.


"I know it's a question you've asked yourself for centuries, why sell you but abandon Killian and Liam... So, do we have a deal?" Mr Gold asked.


"Hmm..." Calista said as she considered it.


"If you find out you may no longer be the same and we need you darker than might," The Darkness said.


Calista glanced at the Darkness, "Please... Look at me," Mr Gold said and gently turned her head to look at him, "The truth for our daughters' life... I know her life wasn't your idea, it was the Darkness," Mr Gold said.


"Calista!" The Darkness said.


Calista closed her eyes, "You have a deal," She said as she opened her eyes.


"He was a wanted man, he thought selling you would be the best idea... He didn't know what would happen to you, he was promised you would be cared for like his daughter he had but as we know, you weren't... He wanted to save you, from himself. To save you from the shame his name brought to your family. He abandoned your brothers because he was a coward, he just wanted to free himself and you. He was coming for you when he abandoned them," Calista looked at him shocked, "He wanted to start anew but... Incidents happened and he slept for two centuries then awoke with a path in mind... To honour you and be a better father to another," Calista stepped back, "You have a younger brother... His name is Liam," Mr Gold said.


"No...No, my father never loved me!" Calista said.


"You were... His little sea princess," Mr Gold said and Calista stared at him, "That's what he called you, every night when he tucked you in and try to sing your mother's lullaby... His little sea princess."


Flashback Many Years Ago...


Calista aged 4 was being carried into her room she shared with her brothers. She giggled as she held onto her father.


Brennan laid her down in her cot and her brothers ran in, getting their beds. Brennan checked on his sons before looking back at his daughter who yawned and he smiled.


"My little sea princess," Brennan said as he stroked her cheek before he tucked her in.


"Will you sing tonight, Papa?" Young Calista asked.


"Father isn't good at singing Cali," Young Killian said and chuckled with his brother.


"Careful boys," Brennan said.


End of Flashback


Calista walked into the diner and David drew his sword.


"I'm not here to harm anyone... Quite the opposite," Calista walked to Naomi, "Be thankful your father knows how to make the best deals," Calista waved her hand and Nicholas appeared, "But, I... I know how to twist them," Calista said.


"Wh... What am I doing here?" Nicholas asked.


"You're taking my daughters' place, darling," A Dark One entered, "Will he do?" Calista asked.


"Doesn't matter," The Dark One said as Calista removed the mark from Naomi.


Naomi yelled in pain and looked at her wrist, the mark was gone then she looked up to see the Dark One walking through Nicholas before disappearing.


"Get ready to go to hell, you haven't got long, darling," Calista said and turned to the door.


"Why?! Why are you doing this?!" Naomi asked.


"Your father made a deal with me... Your life for the truth... Why my father sold me and abandoned my brothers... I'm paying up... And Nicholas... Well, darling, he's a means to an end," Calista said and walked out.


"Are you sure you can do this? You're softer, lighter, it's disgusting," The Darkness said.


"I replaced her life, stop complaining. I made a deal, we always pay up," Calista said before she disappeared in smoke.



Later, Killian and Calista stood in a dark alley and Calista looked up at the sky at the moon.


Nimue appeared behind them, "You both know what you need to do," Nimue said.


"Aye, we know what I need to do," Killian said as they disappeared in smoke.


They appeared in Emma's dining room, Calista was sat on the dining table and Killian beside her. They watched quietly as Emma opened a cupboard using her magic to open it and she pulled out Excalibur then she turned around and saw them.


"Sorry, love. But we can't let you use that sword," Killian said as he offered Calista his hand, she placed it in his and slipped off the table then walled and positioned themselves blocking Emma's exit path.


"Why? So, you can get your precious revenge? If I do not do this, everyone I love will die," Emma said.


"And if you do, you'll die. Come now, hand it over. I don't want to hurt you," Killian said.


"Now, you care what happens to me?" Emma said.


"Like it or not, we owe you," Calista said.


"For what?" Emma asked.


"Well, if it weren't for what you made us, I would never have become the man I always wanted to be," Killian said.


Emma had tears in her eyes, "This is not who Killian wanted to be. Revenge did not matter to him," Emma said.


"Oh, it did. You just briefly distracted me. Well, now, I can finally make the Crocodile pay," Killian said.


Emma slowly took a couple of steps towards them, "Even if it means be becoming the thing you both hate? The thing you spent centuries trying to destroy?" Emma said.


"If you didn't want us to change, you should have let us die," Calista said.


"I'm sorry, I couldn't watch two more people I love die," Emma said.


"And now, because of that, you get to watch everyone you love die," Killian said.


"No!" Emma yelled and ran forward, attempting the slash them both but they disappeared in red and black smoke, appearing behind her. Emma turned to face them, "I will protect my family, even if I have to kill you both to do it!" Emma yelled and attempting to slash them again but they appeared.


Emma turned around and she came face to face with 'Henry', "Mom, wait!" 'Henry' said.


"Henry..." 'Henry' took the sword and black smoke engulfed him, turning into Calista, "Cali... Don't do this," Emma said.


"It's too late for that, Em. Enjoy the time you have left with your family," Calista said before she disappeared in black smoke.


Calista appeared beside her brother near the lake by behind all of the Dark Ones, "Heartless, Cali... I like it," Killian said.


"Thank you, brother," Calista said and handed him the sword.


Killian took the sword, "It's time, shall we?" Killian said and offered her his left arm.


"We shall," Calista said and linked her arm with his.


"So, this is really it," Henry said.


The Jones Siblings emerged from behind the Dark One's and walked forward to Mary Margaret, David, Henry, Regina, Robin, Will, Nicholas and Mr Gold were stood by Burnaby Lake. Killian carried Excalibur, "I'm afraid it is. Look. The S.S. Purgatory," Killian said as he motioned to the lake, where the fog was appearing. From behind the fog, Charon appeared on his boat ready to take everyone who was marked to the Underworld.


Then Emma and Naomi ran out from behind the Dark One's to their families, "Papa!" Naomi yelled and ran to him then hugged him.


"Mom, Dad! Henry!" Emma said as they had a group hug, "I'm sorry! I tried!" Emma said and the siblings looked at the two hugs sadly for moments.


"We know, it's okay," Mary Margaret said.


Regina walked up to Killian, "It's time to drop these acts. You can't just sit back and watch two more families be destroyed to get your revenge," Regina said.


"What makes you think we can't?" Killian said.


"Because your sister will be destroying her family and she has already felt the damage a broken family can do," Calista looked at Mr Gold and Naomi before stepped closer to Killian. Regina looked at Killian, "And because of we what we swore to never speak of again. I know the real reason you don't want to talk about what you did to your father," Regina said.


Calista looked at Killian, "Brother?" Calista asked.


"I believe we've already had this conversation," Killian said.


"What conversation?" Calista asked.


"But this time you're going to listen because if you don't... You will both regret it for the rest of your lives, which, in your cases, means forever. So, you have to ask yourself, Killian, the same question you did that night. The man who knew why he gave you three up. What kind of man do you want to be?" Regina said.


"He left us, he deserved what he got," Calista said.


"I'm not the same as him and I never will be," Killian said and they watched Regina walk back to Robin and Henry.


The Charon was soon ready to take them the Underworld and Nimue stepped forward, "It's time," Nimue said.


"No, you're not taking the people I love!" Emma said as she moved forward, ready to fight but stopped when Nimue put her under a chokehold.


"I might not be able to kill you, but I can stop you from interfering," Nimue said.


Nimue continued to choke Emma, preventing her from fighting as the other watched on helplessly an Emma continued to look at Killian and Calista.


Killian and Calista looked at Emma and slowly they unlinked their arms, understanding why they couldn't do this. Killian turned to Nimue, "That's enough!" Killian said.


"What do you both think you're doing?" Nimue asked.


"Being the people we want to be," Killian looked at Calista, "Go to him," Killian said and Calista shook her head.


Nimue continued to choke Emma, "You can't stop us," Nimue said.


"Yes, I can," Killian said and raised Excalibur and slowly all the Dark One's were absorbed into the sword, "Go!" Killian yelled to Calista as Emma watched on in shock as Killian took on all the darkness and the blade soon glowed red.



"Killian, you can't do this," Emma said.


"Calista bloody kiss him!" Killian yelled.


"No, I don't... I don't believe it anymore!" Calista said.


"Don't lie to me! Kiss the man you love and live!" Killian said and began to strain against the darkness.


Calista glanced between Will and Mr Gold, "Bloody hell!" Calista said and walked away to her brother.


"And don't stop!" Killian said.


"I bloody know!" Calista said and walked opposite the two of them then she looked at her brother.


"You have to help me, Emma. It has to be you, take it," Killian said.


"I can't. It should be me. Killian, please," Emma said as she cries.


"Emma... Your family needs you. If anyone deserves to go to Underworld, it's me. You were right. I was weak. So, let me make up for it now by being strong and giving you and my sister your lives back," Killian said.


"Mum!" Naomi called out and Calista looked at her, "If you're hesitating because of what you've done, don't! Just come back to us or me!"


"She's right, love, you couldn't have don't anything to make us hate, no matter how dark," Will said.


"You've done nothing wrong, dear, you have never set out to us. Whoever you love just save yourself," Mr Gold said.


Emma took Excalibur from Killian, "Cali! Hurry!" Emma yelled.


"I love you, Cali, remember that," Killian said.


"I love you too, brother," Calista said as a tear fell and she ran over to Mr Gold, wrapping her arms around his neck and they kiss passionately, holding each other close as a bright light came from their kiss.



Emma held Excalibur, "I love you," Emma said and kissed him.


"I love you, too," Killian said and nodded to her encouragingly the Emma stepped back, can't bring herself to do it, "It's okay," He said with another nod.


With another small nod of encouragement, Emma finally mustered up the courage to drove the sword through him. He cried out in pain as Calista gasped and leaned back but Mr Gold held her close, and Emma began to sob, as she hugged Killian. Immediately, Killian tired to comfort, despite having a sword through him. Everyone else watched on sadly. A bright light surrounded Killian and Emma as well as Calista, and once is disappeared, Emma was no longer the Dark One and is back to her normal self. She stepped back and removed the sword from Killian, which quickly disintegrated. Emma then turned back to Killian and saw that the wound on his neck has re-opened.


Calista groaned, the wound on her next opened up and went limp, "No... No, no, Cali," Mr Gold said and he laid her on the ground.


Mr Gold glanced at Killian who was attempting to point at him but he looked back at Calista as Naomi and Will knelt beside her body. Suddenly Calista gasped and panted, opening her eyes as the wound slowly closed up,


"Calista," Mr Gold said.


"Rumpel..." Calista said and sat up, hugging him then let go and looked at her brother, "No, no, no," Calista said as she began to sob and Naomi held her hand as Mr Gold removed his jacket and put it over her shoulders.



Later, Calista held Mr Gold's jacket around her and she walked over to her brother who was on a stretcher the paramedics were about to cover him up.


"Wait, please," Calista said as she wiped away her tears and the paramedics nodded. Naomi looked at her father who was walking away from the lake.


Calista walked the other side of Killian and brushed her fingers along his cheek, she leaned to his ear to whisper, "Thank you for proving all those who despised us wrong. You were never a villain, you've always been my hero, no matter what darkness was inside. Wherever you've gone, keep going, keeping believing you were worth every second of it, because you are. Find our brother and wait for me... But please know, I plan to live and grow into the little sister you both have always wanted me to. We'll be together again, a family once again, please wait and know this I love you and I couldn't prouder of you, ever," Calista whispered and stepped back into her daughter who held her arms.


They watched as the paramedics covered Killian up and they all watched as he was wheeled away with glum expressions. 


Calista cleared her throat and walked to Nicholas, "I, um," She looked at him, "I'm really sorry I put you in danger, trading my daughters life for yours wasn't right," Calista said.


"It's, uh, it's okay...I know now, it was the darkness inside of you," Nicholas said.


"It was..." Calista said and walked away and Naomi followed after her.



The next day, Mr Gold sat behind the desk in his shop, drinking wine from a glass when he heard the sound of the door opening.


"Get out. We're closed," Mr Gold said.


Calista shut the door and walked to the doorway into the back looking at Mr Gold, "You've never been closed to me," Calista said.


Mr Gold stood up looking surprised, "What are you doing here?" Mr Gold asked.


"Charming..." Calista exhaled sharply, "I, uh, I wanted to say... Thank you... For... Saving me," Calista said.


"I always will," Mr Gold said.


"Yeah... I hmm... Thought the man I loved was gone... And he is," Calista said as she walked to him.


"Calista, I..." Mr Gold said.


Calista pulled him into a kiss and pulled away, "For the first time, you showed me he was gone... But evolved into someone... I could never see. I don't... I don't want to be in this world if you're not with me anymore. What I really want, is to be with you... As husband and wife, as two parents to our daughter," Calista said and they kissed again.



Later that night, Calista was asleep in their shared bed and Mr Gold was getting dress. He phone went off and it was a text from Emma Meet me at your shop, now.


Mr Gold looked at Calista before he walked out of the door. Calista stirred and woke up, she sat up and looked around then heard a familiar eerie whisper, "No..." Calista whispered and got dressed quickly before she walked out of their home, following the whispers to the pawnshop where she saw Emma and Mr Gold.


"I think I was invited. I heard whispering. It's the dagger. It's calling to me," Emma said.


"Emma, your imagining things," Mr Gold said.


"She's not," Calista walked in and they looked at her, "I hear it too... Though, it is strange since I was weathered to Excalibur, not the dagger. Want to explain to us what's going on and why you have the dagger?" Calista asked as she walked over.


"I don't have it," Mr Gold said.


"Don't lie to me... You can no longer lie and manipulate me, Rumpel, I'm not your little puppet, I'm not your little doll, I'm your wife and I deserve bloody respect from you," Calista said.


"We'll ask again, you have it, don't you?" Emma asked.


"Yes, I do," Mr Gold said and took out a rag and laid it on the countertop, which once again had Rumpelstiltskin written across it.


Calista shook her head in anger, "You are the Dark One. Again," Calista said.


"Yes. I'm sorry. Had hoped to keep that secret. Wasn't expecting either of you to hear it. But then, most Ex-Dark One's are dead," Mr Gold said.


"How is this possible?" Emma asked.


"When you came to me, asking for the sword, I seen an opportunity. I didn't want to go through within, but a chance I had never imagined would present itself again. As fate would have it, a small vial of magic was close at hand," Mr Gold said.



"One sprinkle... And I knew I could get it all back. I turned the sword into a conduit. So, that while my wife and Hook thought they were destroying the darkness, Hook was actually... Moving it. Channelling it someplace safe," Mr Gold said.


"Into you," Calista said angrily.


"He had no idea. And now... Things are as they should be," Mr Gold said.


"Hook sacrificed himself and you took that from him!" Emma said angrily and went to strike him with her magic.


Mr Gold used his magic to stop her, "Do you honestly that you can hurt me? I now have the combined power of every Dark One who ever lived... Including the two of you," Mr Gold said.


"You found a loophole, betrayed us all again. Why does that not surprise me... And let's check something, am I heartbroken like usual, or pissed? Hmm... Pissed," Calista said.


"It's what I do. It's the man I am, the man you accepted," Mr Gold said.


"Well, then, Dark One... Now that you have your power back... You're going to do something for me," Emma said.


"And why would I do anything for you?" Mr Gold asked.


"Because if you want me and Naomi, you will do exactly as she says," Calista said.


"Don't test me," Mr Gold said.


"How about you don't test us. Because Naomi still doesn't know... How would you like it if I told her that her exactly what her father's done... Though, she is a smart girl she'll figure it out eventually," Mr Gold looks at her, "So, you're gonna do what Emma wants, now... Or I tell our daughter the truth as I'm the only parent who bloody does," Calista said.


Mr Gold turned to face Emma, "What do you want, Miss Swan?" Mr Gold asked.



Later, Calista and Mr Gold were stood in front of Naomi and Belle.


"You're going to hell?" Belle asked.


"The Underworld, if you want to technical," Calista said.


"To get Uncle Killian?" Naomi asked.


"Yes," Calista said.


"But, what about me?" Naomi asked.


"We would like it Belle could watch over you," Mr Gold said.


"Of course, you know I will," Belle said.


"Thank you," Calista said.


There was a knock at the door and Calista walked to it, opening it to see Will with a box, "Cali... I, uh, Some of your things for my place," Will said and handed her the box.


"Oh, uh, thank you," Calista said took the box.


"How are you doing?" Will asked.


"I'm okay, thank you," Calista put the box down and took a leather jacket off the rack, "Uh, here... You, uh, you left this," Calista said and handed it to him.


"Cheers," Will said and took it.


Mr Gold looked at them, "Calista, we haven't got long," Mr Gold said.


"Oh, you're going out?" Will asked.


"Sort of... More like... Rescuing my brother was the Underworld," Calista said.


"Well, if anyone can do it... Your family can... Well, I'll just hm... I'll be off," Will said and walked away.


Calista started to shut the door then opened it, "Will," Will stopped and turned to her and she ran over to him and they hugged, "I'm so sorry," Calista whispered.


"Don't worry about it," Will said.


"We'll always have Wonderland, eh?" Calista whispered.


"Aye, love, we will," Will said and they pulled away.


"Go get back to Anatasia," Calista said.


"Bye Cali," Will said and walked away.



Later at night now, Emma, Mr Gold, Calista, Mary Margaret, David, Regina, Robin and Henry were by Burnaby Lake. Emma, Calista and Mr Gold were by the water's edge.


"Do it," Emma said.


Mr Gold sighed and cut his hand on the dagger, "Are you sure about this?" Mr Gold said.


"Just bloody do it," Calista said.


Mr Gold turned his hand so the blood dropped into the water. The fog and Charon appeared, a walkway in the water came. Emma stepped onto it first, Mary Margaret, David Regina, Robin, Henry, Calista and Mr Gold followed and the group walked towards the boat.
