Twice Upon A Time - Season 3 (reader x once upon a time)

The Heart of the Truest Believer - Part 1

Wednesday, October 28 - Storybrooke

Belle was standing at the docks, watching as the Jolly Roger disappeared into the portal. A few seconds after the portal closed, Archie, Mother Superior, and the Dwarves run onto the dock

"They did it! They saved us!" Grumpy exclaimed happily, until he noticed Belle's tears "They did save us, didn't they? Tears of joy?" he asked

"Are you okay?" Archie asked her worried

"What happened? Where is everyone?" Blue asked, realizing no one else was there

"When they stopped the self-destruct device those people who came, Greg and Tamara, they kidnapped Henry, and they took him through a portal" Belle explained

"A portal to where?" asked Blue

"I-I don't know. Everyone else followed them on Hook's ship" Belle said

"Why'd you stay behind?" Grumpy asked confused, knowing too well how much she loved adventure and traveling

"Because I had to" she replied, showing them the scroll. When she unrolled it she found a small vial hidden inside.

"It's a cloaking spell. Why?" Blue said after reading the scroll

"Because Rumple said... he said that others were coming" Belle replied

Following the instructions on the scroll, the group went to the mines. The Dwarves opened up a fairy dust vein on the wall for Belle to pour the spell and when she did, the magic shot through the mines, to the centre of Storybrooke and up to the sky, starting to cover the town with a new barrier, like a dom.

Driving down the road to town, a red convertible with two young men in it approached. When they saw the barrier coming down, they sped up to make it inside the perimeter just in time, with only their back bumper being taken off and left out of the dom.

When Neal woke up, he was lying on a dais. As soon as Mulan realized he was awake, she started questioning him

"Who are you?" she asked

"Neal" the replied

"Is he well?" Aurora asked, approaching them, Philip by her side

"Well enough to be questioned" replied Mulan as Aurora filled a cup with water for Neal

"Here. Drink, drink. You must be thirsty" she said, helping him get a sip of water

"Where am I?" Neal asked

"You're in our kingdom" Aurora replied

"Where's your, where's your kingdom?" Neal asked

"The Enchanted Forest" Philip told him

"I'm back" Neal said in wonder

"Back? You mean you're from here?" Aurora wondered

"He's lying" Mulan said "Look at his clothes. He's from the same world Emma, Angie and Snow are from"

"Emma? Emma Swan? You know her?" Neal asked, hopeful

"How do you know her?" asked Mulan instead of answering

"She's... She's my..." Neal doubted, not knowing how to describe his relationship with Emma "I-I don't know. But she's in danger I have to get back to her. I have to help her" he told them, trying to get up
