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: Tomorrow I will be posting my fic for the OUaT Positivity gift exchange. I’m hoping that on Friday I’ll be able to post Chapter Three of Painting Layers of Love. I had to go out of town unexpectedly at the weekend, so it might not happen but I’m going to try. Anyway, enjoy chapter twelve!
That evening
found a large chunk of Storybrooke once more outside of city hall. The polls
had closed an hour earlier for the votes to be counted. Granny had marched
inside and peered down her glasses at everyone in there, pronouncing that there
would be no ‘funny business’ and she would be double checking the count.
Regina obviously hadn’t objected. Granny had
always been close with Snow and David, she frequently babysat for baby Neal.
However, Alexander had offered no objection either. Perhaps, Regina mused, that was because he thought
that he had Granny’s support. Granny had refused to publically state an
opinion, which she had to admit did seem tantamount to supporting the
opposition.
“It’ll be ok
mom,” Henry reassured her.
“I know,” Regina replied.
Truthfully it
wasn’t actually the election that was playing on her mind. She had spent a few
hours this afternoon, along with Emma and Henry, searching for Jekyll. They
hadn’t found him and nobody claimed to have seen him in a couple of days. In
fact they hadn’t found anyone who had seen Jekyll since Hyde’s disappearance.
It was an ominous coincidence.
BUT I LIKED ARTHUR IN THE UNDERWORLD! WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO BRING HADES BACK?
Haha the kiss is … well spoiler alert but … *whistles*.
As for Hades nobody gave me permission but it made sense, Zelena has to remain relevant somehow if she isn’t on ‘Team Hero’ because villains can’t last forever or the heroes look inept. However, if you liked Arthur in the underworld … you might be interested in what happens in *checks outline* not Tuesday’s chapter, the chapter after that (chapter fourteen) most likely.
There’s three chapters left of the main story, though I have lots of oneshots I’m going to add to the verse showing different things and it’ll be open to prompts of course. Thanks for commenting – I loved the gif reactions! 🙂
