Madness We Love [Jefferson Hatter || OUAT || Mad Red #4]

Chapter 23

Jefferson, Emma, Grace, Captain Hook, David and Mary Margaret were searching for Regina and August, they were following tracks, "It's okay, Emma. As long as he's with Regina, Pinocchio will be alright," Mary Margaret said.

"We don't know that. I just wish I hadn't let her ditch me," Emma said.

"Swan, you couldn't have known that she'd drop that tracking device," Captain Hook said as Jefferson and Grace glanced at him.

"Yeah, but I let her talk me into thinking kidnapping him was a good idea. If anything happens to that kid, it's my fault," Emma said.

"It won't come to that," Jefferson said.

David bent down to inspect the tracks that were also leading in the way to the cabin, "Uh, the tracks end here. Looks like the rain washed them away," David said.

"Would now be a good time for a locator spell?" Captain Hook asked.

Grace looked into the distance, "We may not need one. Look," Grace said.

They all stopped and looked at the smoke travelling towards them, the smoke engulfed Mary Margaret before disappearing inside of her, the others looked concerned at her.

"Mary Margaret?" David said.

"What the hell was that? Are you okay?" Emma asked.

"I have to make this quick. We don't have much time," Regina's voice came out of Mary Margaret's mouth, shocking everyone.

"Grandma?" Grace said.

Mary Margaret looked at Emma, "Pinocchio's fine. He's back to his old self, or older self," Regina's voice said.

"August," Emma said with a smile.

"But there's something else you need to know... Gold is here," Regina's voice said as Mary Margaret looked at Jefferson and Grace.

"Grandpa..." Grace said.

"He was right," Jefferson whispered.

"We're holed up in his cabin, and he's in town for more than just the author. But he won't tell me why, which means whatever it is he's planning... It's bad," Regina's voice said and she left Mary Margaret's body.

"So, the Dark One's returned," Captain Hook said.

"Yeah," Emma said.

"There's only one person who can help us drive him out," Captain Hook said and looked at Jefferson and Grace but they were gone.

"What?" Emma said.

"Where did they..." David said.

"Rose... If Gold is here, they need to tell her," Mary Margaret said.

Jefferson and Grace appeared at Jake's home where Rose Red, Giselle and Jake were hiding and they told them what happened with Mary Margaret and that Mr Gold was back, "He's back..." Rose Red said.
