Once Upon A Time: Second Chances

Daggers and Dark Ones

The Swan-Jones House

Micah sat by Violet-Marie's bed, as he had been since she was brought back. He sighed. "Come on Vi, wake up." he whispered. "Hey," Hope said from the doorway. "We're all meeting downstairs, coming?" Micah nodded and stood up, looking at Violet-Marie as he left the room. 

When the two got downstairs, they were met with the stares of everyone in the room. "Is Violet-Marie awake yet?" Emma asked. Micah shook his head. "Not yet, she's still really cold." Killian nodded, "Emma was cold for days after the whole Elsa Ice Cave Incident." he said with a straight face, only to receive a pillow in the face from Emma. "What?" Killian asked, laughing. "It's true!" Sera shook his head. "So, have you found any connections with Faith Willows?" she asked. Regina looked at Micah and Sera. "Well, originally, we thought that you three were after the Dark One Dagger." she said, raising her eyebrow. Sera and Micah shook their heads wildly. "We have some bad experiences with that, we want to keep it far away from us." Sera said. Micah considered for a moment. "Well, I'm not so sure about Violet-Marie, she doesn't have memories attached to it, she wasn't with us when we developed a serious phobia of the dagger." Hope laughed. "How could you two have a serious phobia of the dagger?" she asked. "I get my parents since they were both Dark One's, but how did you two get that?" Micah and Sera looked at each other. "We'd rather not say." Micah responded. Emma stood up. "Speaking of the dagger, who has it right now?" she asked. "Because Killian and I have been talking, and we can both still hear whispers from it, and it's really freaking me out." Snow and David looked at each other. "We have it." they responded. "Well then," Regina said. "We should get to the library with the dagger and see if we can find anything on it." she continued. Everyone nodded, got up, and left the house. Micah looked back at the door. Sera came up behind him. "Hey, don't worry, Vi will be okay. Remember, she's tough as nails, and a total bad ass." Micah nodded. "Yeah, she'll be fine." 

The Storybrooke Library

"Nothing." Zelena said, tossing books off of the table she was working at. Emma looked up from her book. "It'll be fine, we'll find something." she said. Gideon winced, looking at the books. "My mom would not appreciate that." he said. Sera looked over and laughed. "Yeah, last I talked to Belle, she was going on and on about the library here, and how she really likes the library that she's at now." 

Everyone except Micah stared at her in shock. "You talked to my mom?" Gideon asked. Sera nodded. "I've talked to your father as well." she said. Micah laughed. "You'd be surprised how many dead people we talk to." he said. "Although Vi is the best at talking to them." he continued, growing silent. Hope came up and hugged him. "She'll be okay." she whispered in his ear. "Anyway." Micah said, shaking his head. "We should continue looking for information about this Faith Willows person." 

Regina walked over to Micah and Sera. "I know that his soul was completely obliterated, and it's impossible, but I have to ask. Have you talked to Robin Hood?" she asked, leaning in and whispering. Sera and Micah looked up at her. "Yes, we have. He's great, and he misses you, and Zelena, and Robyn. He misses you all so much." Sera whispered back. Regina let a single tear run down her cheek. "Thank you." Regina whispered. "Thank you so much." then, Regina went back to browsing her book. 

The Swan-Jones House, later that night

"So, we'll meet up tomorrow at Granny's?" Snow asked Emma, outside of her house. "Sure, sounds good!" Emma replied, walking up the stairs. 

Inside the house, all the lights were off, and there was a suspicious lump on the couch. Emma walked cautiously into the living room, ready to fight. But she nearly busted out laughing when she saw that The Princess Bride was playing. She looked over at the lump and found Violet-Marie burrowed beneath a lot of blankets. "You doing alright?" she asked. "Yep." Violet-Marie said, pulling the blankets closer. Micah and Sera came into the room and laughed. "Are you watching Buttercup's incorrect story again?" Micah asked. "Yes." Violet-Marie replied, sitting up. "Now, you guys have been out all night. Mind telling me what you were up to?" she asked. Micah sat down next to her. "As you wish." he said, leaning back, everyone else sitting down as well. "Inconceivable!" Violet-Marie said. Micah laughed and wrapped his arm around Violet-Marie's shoulder. "Inconceivable." 

Soooo? Wadya think?? Sorry I've been a lil' inactive! School has been kicking my ass, and I've been working on the idea, and prewriting some chapters of a book that I someday want to get published! Anyway, I have a Pinterest account now, so I might put up a board with inspo for this book, and my new one! So, anyway, bombard me with your thoughts! I would love to know what you are thinking!!
