Down at the base of the beanstalk Mulan was checking the sundial when Aurora started whimpering in her sleep. Snow saw it and quickly woke her up
"Hey, Aurora?" she said, shaking the princess awake "It was just a dream. It was just a dream" she tried to calm her down
"It was horrible" Aurora said, breathing hard
"Why don't you tell me about it? Do you want to tell me about it?" Snow asked her "Come on, let's stand. Tell me"
Aurora stood and took a couple of deep breaths, trying to calm herself, before speaking "It was the same as last time. I was in this room, this, this red room. It was bright, blood-red curtains. There was no windows or doors so it didn't make sense" she described her dream, panic slowly creeping into Snow "And I couldn't get in or out, I was trapped. The curtains, they were on fire. It was horrible"
"It's okay" Snow tried to comfort her, stepping closer to her
But Aurora wasn't done "I was hunched in a corner and, I looked over into the other corner, and in the shadows there was someone else there. I just its eyes, they were looking right at me" she finished
"It's okay. It's over now" Snow told her again "These nightmares, they will fade away. I promise"
"Did they for you?" Aurora asked her
"Yeah. Come on" Snow answered, sitting on a fallen tree near by "Come on, I'll stay with you until you fall back asleep" she offered, and Aurora sat on the ground, resting her head on Snow's leg
Inside the castle, Hook and Angie were walking down a hallway filled with golden stuff, looking for the treasure room where the compass was
"They hoarded all of their greatest stolen treasures in here. Piles of jewels and every room filled with coins" Hook explained, stopping by a table filled with gold coins and taking one
"Let's get to it. The compass" Angie told him
"What's your rush?" he asked
"How about not getting squashed by a giant for trespassing?" she replied
"Too right, lass" Hook agreed, pocketing the coin "Come, everything we need is right in front of us" he guided her to the treasure room
"How are we going to find the compass in this mess?" Angie wonderer, seeing the mess all around them
"By looking, start searching" Hook told her, spreading through the room "I wonder how much treasure we could carry down the beanstalk" he said, earning a look from Angie, so he added "In addition to the compass, of course"
"Can't you stop thinking like a pirate for a minute?" Angie asked him, not really expecting an answer. When she turned back around, she saw a skeleton lying on the floor, holding a sword with the name Jack written on it "What the hell?" she asked
"That, would be Jack" Hook replied, joining her on the other side of the skeleton
"As in Jack..." Angie started saying "The giant killer" Hook finished for her
"With that? No way" Angie said, pointing to the sword
"It packs quite a wallop. You'd be surprised" he told her, stepping backwards, unable to see the rope at his feet. But Angie did see it
"Whoa, whoa, whoa" she said, quickly grabbing him and pulling him into her arms
"It's about bloody time" Hook said smirking and placing his arms around Angie's waist
Angie sighed and pushed him away, avoiding the rope "It's a trip wire" she told him, showing it to him. As they followed the rope with their eyes, they saw the giant cage attached to it hanging over them "Quite a security system" Angie remarked
