Synopsis: Alternate Season Six. Storybrooke is visibly under threat once more from Hyde and the Evil Queen. However, not all threats are visible as an old forgotten foe has been manipulating events from behind the scenes. The very nature of darkness is revealed as everyone struggles with the most difficult beast of all – acceptance.
Note: I know it’s Monday, not Tuesday. However, I thought having the chapter early would be better than having it late. I have to unexpectedly go out of town again, it’s a family thing, and so I won’t be around tomorrow. That also means I’ll miss TMI Tuesday. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask, there just won’t be a reply until Wednesday. Enjoy!

“What the
hell?”The young man
cradled his stinging hand against his chest. He had just reached for the door
handle on Gold’s shop and the damn thing had zapped him. He’d seen actual blue
sparks. Gingerly he reached forward again, this time slowly and he felt the
magical buildup. He couldn’t get his hand within three inches of the door
handle without the protections kicking in.“Will you hurry
up?” his companion hissed, looking up and down the street.“Doors locked –
magically,” he growled.He stepped away
from the door, and they both walked a few feet to the nearby alley. There
weren’t many people about, and the few that were walking along weren’t paying
them any attention. However, if they loitered in front of the door for too
long, then they would be noticed and they couldn’t afford that – not now.“Since when?”
the other man said incredulously.Although I’m not interested in keeping either Jekyll or Hyde around, I felt sorry for Jekyll that he was offed by the Evil Queen right after he bravely pulled Hyde back into himself. And you would think Belle would learn by now – she thinks going away by herself to think things through when they hit a snag in their relationship ‘always worked’, but if it did, they’d have a much more solid relationship. You can’t work on a relationship apart, they have to work things out together. (Also, hey, nice job tying up the loose end of what ever happened to Albert!)
Heh thanks! 🙂
Yeah I felt sorry for Jekyll. He did the brave thing, he made things right and then death was his reward. However, it had to happen because of .. reasons, the Evil Queen and .. something else.
Yup poor forgotten Albert Spencer/King George. You know I wonder why they never brought him back. a) there was never the right storyline to do it, b) never even thought about it, c) actor was too busy/refused, d) some other reason. Given how he could have been a political antagonist for Storybrooke leadership, and his importance to David, there was a lot there for them to play with and yet it was just dropped completely.
As for Belle, yeah I agree with you. A good relationship in my opinion is built on communication, not time apart. In fact I think in Belle’s next scene she is going to have a bit of a revelation on exactly what the ‘time apart’ has done for them … that won’t be in the next chapter though but soon 🙂
