Merlin (Once upon a time fanfic)

part two

The evening air was cold, both Henry and Regina could feel that autumn was upon them. Regina tried the door handle forcefully but the door was locked. She turned to Henry nd saw the look of disappointment I his eyes. A purple cloud of smoke appeared as Regina moved her hand. As the smoke disappeared Henry could see that they were in the sheriff's station.

" Okay Henry what is it we are looking for ?" Regina's voice trailed off as she looked around the cold, empty station. She began to feel sad as she realised that this place had not changed since sheriff Graham had been in charge. Unlike when snow took over being mayor for the short amount of time, she had put that awful painting of the birds up on the wall. Emma had been sheriff for quite some time now yet she had not put her mark on this place, it shows that emma was never sure if she should stay in storybrook. Over the years Regina had grown quite fond of Emma, especially the way she cared for Henry and had never took him away from Regina they had become quite good at the co parenting.

"Mom, mom Mom! " Henry began to shout as Regina's mind had wonder off task.

"Henry, please don't shout. What is it you have Found? "

"The computer, it didn't take my long to guess the password but now we can search the Internet for what or who merlin may be. Even though my world does not have magic like you do, there are loads of stories that suggest there was once a time when it did"

"Okay, Henry I have a computer In my office we could have used with out committing a felony, but I have to admit I am intrigued to see what you can find."

Henry type merlin into the search bar and got a number beyond his recognition of results.

"Mom it says here that, Merlin is believed to be the most powerful magical being to ever have lived. Drawing power from starlight, which is the most pure and delicate light know to man. Merlin has often be depicted In the same way as the Walker of realms, the seer of all and the helper to the needy. However the description of Merlin has been the same through centuries Merlin has appeared to be and man or a woman."

"Great, we are looking for some one who can walk into any realm, and we don't even know if we are looking for a man or a Woman!" Regina huffed as she slumped into an empty chair.

" But mom, it says here that Merlin , man or woman is the seer of all, that means maybe Merlin can see we need help. Tomorrow I propose that we go out looking for Merlin in the woods, maybe Merlin was In the enchanted forest when the curse was cast, and is now here somewhere, there has to be a part of storybrook that no one has looked in. Please mom ?"

"Okay, tomorrow we round everyone up at granny's I the morning and we will go and look, however young man you have to go to school, come on its getting late." Regina began to walk to the stairs.

"Mom you know if we walk home you will have to stop and buy me ice cream and that will take like 30 minutes...." before Henry could finish his sentence Regina had taken the hint that he wanted her to use her magic to get them home. The smoke clear and they stood in Henry's bedroom,

"So tomorrow if we meet everyone at granny's at, let's say 7 o'clock so then I can tell them what we have learnt about Merlin, so that they know what they are looking for then I will go to school and you lot can spend the whole day looking for the one person who can help mom." Henry said in one breath Regina found it hard to know what he was saying. But never the less she nodded.

"Goodnight mom" Henry said as he picked out what pajamas he was going to wear that night.

"Henry?" Regina said with a hint of sadness in her voice.

" Yeah?"

"I just want you to know that even though I am with Robin and Roland lives here. It definitely does not mean that I love you any less. I love you so much Henry Daniel Mills Swan." Regina walked over to her son and hugged tight like she would never let him go.

"I love you to mom. Mom what is Jupiter's Day? " Henry question as he was sure he did not fully understand the part about Jupiter's day that he had read on the Internet, he had forgotten that he did not mention this part to Regina.

Regina's face dropped like she had just seen a ghost, she knew that she had to pull herself together in order to answer Henry's question.

She cleared her throat. " Err, well... It is the day that all the planets line up In the sky and all that you could see is this great big red circle that was like flames dancing round the sky. Why do you Ask? " Regina's heart was pounding the one thing she was sure that know one in storybrook knew, her very own son was asking her about.

"Well it said that Merlin was born on Jupiter's day. "
