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

The Tower - Part 2

David arrived at the edge of the woods and stopped his truck. He got out and grabbed his sword, ready to find the berries, unaware that a hooded figure was following him.

He eventually found the same bushes Angie and Killian had found earlier but could now feel someone watching him. He turned around and saw the hooded figure hiding behind a tree before it disappeared and appeared behind another, so he called Angie. Unfortunately, she didn't answer so he left her a message

"Angie, it's David. I'm at the trail head. And I think I found her: The Wicked Witch. I'm going after her"

He stepped closer to the tree and swung his sword, but there was no one behind it anymore. David was shocked, the hooded figure had been there a second ago. He turned to go back to the trail only to run face first with the figure, who grabbed him and threw him against a tree

In the meantime, Angie and Killian reached the end of the trail and came out to a field with a farmhouse

"It's a farm house. You have to appreciate the irony" Angie chuckled and began walking towards the house

"There's definitely someone living here" she said, looking through the window

"Looks empty right now, though" Killian noticed

"Look, storm cellar" Angie said, seeing the door on the field

They went to take a closer look and Angie took out her gun

"Whoa, wait, wait, wait" Killian stopped her "It's one thing walking around a deserted farmhouse, it's quite another descending into a one-way cellar with no way out"

"Are you scared?" Angie asked, surprised

Killian sighed "There's a difference between fear and strategy" he pointed out "We know she's got flying monstrosities, who knows what's down there. If this witch is as powerful as we think, we could use some magical backup, unless you've been practicing in New York of course"

"Right" Angie realized his reasoning made sense "I'll call Regina" she said, pulling out her phone. That's when she saw she had a message "It's David" she said to Killian, playing the voice-mail

"Angie, it's David. I'm at the trail head. I think I found her: The Wicked Witch. I'm going after her"

After the figure had thrown him against the tree, David landed face down on the floor and pretended to be unconscious so it would come closer. When it was standing right at his side, David grabbed his sword and stabbed the figure right through the chest, but it grabbed David by the neck and lifted him up

Without letting go of his sword, David reached for the figure's hood with his other hand and pulled it back to reveal the face of his opponent

"What are you?" David asked when he saw his own face looking back at him

"I'm you" the figure replied and laughed before throwing him back to the ground

David got up quickly and got ready to fight

"You can't defeat me. I can smell your fear" the figure said "It's like a stench, the stench of a scared shepherd boy who strayed too far from his farm"

"I'm not scared of anything" David replied, swinging his sword, but the figure knew all his moves

"Ah, if that were true, I wouldn't be here" it mocked him

David attacked again but the figure overpowered him, forcing him down to his knees and broke David sword

"Don't you see? Your fear makes you weak" the figure said
