Chapter 172: Disturbia

Snow got out of Weaver's car and made a point to quietly let car door close without making a sound. He opened the trunk and she took her quiver and bow from it.

"If it comes down to it, you'll need to shoot to kill. Can you be okay with that?" he asked, as she looked at him.

"He has my family in there and you know I'll do anything to save Charming and my children," she reminded. He nodded curtly and drew his weapon.

"Then it's time we rid ourselves of this parasite," he said, as they crept toward the building that had the light on.

"I'll climb up the fire escape. That should give me the element of surprise and a clear shot if I need it," she said. He nodded and continued on into the building, while she climbed up the fire escape.

"And that was pretty much my summer. Backpacking across Europe was an incredible experience," Margot said.

"You've been so many places...you must find me very dull. I've never been anywhere," Tilly replied.

"Well...traveling to all those places was great, but there is something to be said for finding a place to call home," Margot mentioned.

"Is that in San Francisco?" Tilly asked curiously. Margot smiled.

"No...San Francisco was never home. But I have hope for Hyperion Heights," she replied, making Tilly smile shyly.

"So...there's this book store that I saw not far from here. You want to check it out together, maybe tomorrow?" Margot asked.

"I...I'd love to," Tilly agreed. Iris looked on from a distance and smiled. That was another romance that was slowly being rekindled and that made her happy. But she couldn't shake the bad feeling she had and she looked back at her Nana.

"Mom and Dad are in trouble again...aren't they?" she asked. Regina sighed.

"I guess there's no hiding from you, is there?" she asked. Summer shook her head.

"Is it the Collector?" she asked.

"Not this time...it's Nick or Jack. But Weaver is on his way to help and I know your parents. This is one monster they will handle and win against," she promised. Summer nodded.

"Have faith...that's what Daddy would tell me," she said. Regina smiled.

"Well, it's good advice," she agreed, as she watched the girl spy another glance at her grandfather. Robert had come in just a few minutes ago and was sitting in the booth. He knew Roni wouldn't serve him and contribute to his problem, so he had brought his own bottle. Normally, she would toss a person like this out, but she didn't, because he was cursed and she knew Xander was going to be devastated to know what the curse had reduced him to. He hadn't touched a drop since coming back into David's life and Clayton had vindictively made sure he broke his promise that he'd never drink again to his family.

"Maybe it's time to start working on waking someone else up," Roni suggested. She didn't have anymore of that potion that Ivy had used on her, but if anyone could get through, she knew it was Summer and Bobby.

"Time to double team Grandpa Xander you two," she said, as she started making a concoction. Bobby crinkled his nose.

"What is that?" she asked.

"A remedy for a hangover. It tastes like dead feet, but it works. If he's ever going to get his memory back...then we need to get him clean," she replied, as she took the glass over to him.

"Drink this," she ordered.

"Why would I want that?" he questioned.

"Because I know that deep down...you don't want this. Do you have any idea what your son has been going through?" Roni snapped. He grunted in response and she slapped a newspaper down in front of him. He looked at the headline through bleary eyes and the photo.
