A/N: Hello everyone, I'm back! I know that it's been a long time since I've updated this book and I'll be honest with all of you, the reason I haven't updated is because I had stopped watching the show. I don't remember the exact reason behind it because it was years ago but I have recently decided to rewatch the show and then remember that I had never finished this fanfiction so I got to work. I hope you like where I take this story as we finish off the show in it. I'm happy to be back and give you all the ending to the story that you deserve. ~Amber (P.S. please read the three chapters before this one they have been rewritten and have new information in them)

That night Regina and Maleficent came through the door with Pinocchio in Regina's arms. I fought against my restraints screaming at them. Gold made Pinocchio back into August right before my eyes and I screamed and struggled more as tears fell down my cheeks. He woke up a few minutes later and Cruella and Ursula pulled the cloths down from our mouths.

"August!" I yelled.

"Leah! Oh my god! What's going on? Are you hurt?" he yelled back. Both of us fighting against our restraints.

"You are going to tell us everything that you know about your time writing the book," Rumple said.

"I don't have any memories of writing it and neither does Leah. Somehow they were taken from us and that's all I know. Please let us go, or at least let her go," August said.

"He's telling the truth, Rumple," I said.

"Maybe you need some incentive puppet," Ursula said and then held a knife up to my throat.

"Threats are not going to help me remember something that I don't know," he said.

"Wait," Regina said using her magic to take the knife from Ursula. "This man used to be made out of wood so let's light a fire under him and see what happens."

"Stop it!" I yelled.

"I'd shut up if I were you," Cruella said pulling out her gun and facing it at me.

"Ok I actually do know something," August said. Regina put the fire in the fireplace and waited for August to continue. "When I was in Hong Kong after writing the book and before coming to StoryBrooke I met a mystic named The Dragon. I don't know how he knew about the book but he had been looking for the author for years. When I told him that I had helped write a similar book he simply told me that I wasn't who he was looking for," August said.

"And what did he know of the author he was looking for?" Rumple asked.

"He died before I could ask," August said.

"Well that's something you're both about to have in common," Rumple said.

"But when he did I took his research and brought it here to StoryBrooke," August said.

"But how could there be more than one author?" Maleficent asked.

"I will have to take a trip to his man's trailer to find out. But if I get there and there is nothing there, you're going to be in for a world of pain," Rumple said.

"Don't go to his trailer. After August was turned into a boy I went to the trailer and took everything that looked of value," I said.

"I'll check both places," Rumple said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rumple came back through the door and blasted me to the corner of the room wrapping tighter restraints around me.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"Watch your words deary or I'll do more than restrain you," Gold said.

"Did you find anything?" Ursula asked.

"Of course not, I didn't even look. I got this from the fairy's it can temporarily undo any spell cast. He went from wood to real once let's undo that," Gold said.

"No, you'll kill him!" I yelled.

Rumple waved his hand and there was a tight metal around my mouth so no noise got through. I watched helplessly as Rumple held August's nose over the fire.

"Tell me what I want to know," Gold said.

"The sorcerer trapped the author behind a door and seeing as Leah and I are still here I can only assume that The Dragon had it wrong and just our memories of being the authors are behind the door," August said.

"He's speaking in riddles," Cruella said.

"Come on Gold you know that I'm right and Regina knows about the door," August said and the room got quiet, "I know my papa gave Leah my things and she gave them to you. In them, there was a page with an illustration of the door on it."

"They were just scraps of paper," Regina said.

"Then you wouldn't mind sharing them," Gold said.

"I would but I already gave the page to Henry," Regina said.

"All I know is that the door is in StoryBrooke," August said. After that Gold returned me to my normal restraints and August to his. The crew left to go look for the door, leaving us with Cruella.
