The group are travelling.

"How close are we?" Emma asked "Henry could already be waiting at the Netherworld."

"No, we planned to meet back there in two hours." Aurora explained.

"You're not going to leave them waiting." Rose told her.

"Yes, but what if he's..."

"He's fine."

Mary looked up ahead of them "There. that looks relatively high ground. We'll make our camp here. Aurora, you settle in and find Henry, get the information we need from Regina and Rumplestiltskin. We do this fast. In and out. It's still dangerous out here."

Aurora got caught on a branch, revealing some random burns.

"Is something wrong?"

Aurora shook her head from Milah's question "No, I just caught on something."

"That doesn't explain your arm."

"What about my arm?"

"The burns your hiding. They're not from the sun."

Aurora looked down at her arm "I brushed against some poison leaves."

Mulan held Aurora back from the others "You said that this Netherworld are full of smoke and flames. Aurora, if that's where you were burned, you should not return."

"I don't have much of a choice, do I?"

"You're choosing to go in deeper and stay under longer to find this boy." Mulan told her "I've vowed to Prince Philip to protect you. Not to help some strangers finds portal to another land."

"Mulan, I was cursed to spend eternity in that horrible sleep and the only reason I'm here is because you and Philip saved me." Aurora told her "Every day since my waking has been a gift, so let me do something with it. It's my turn to help someone else. I'm going to go back in and find Henry."

Aurora is sleeping while Mulan watched over her, the others are standing behind, watching.

"Hey," Snow turned to Hope and Emma "Hope, you'll see Luna, Enid, Andromeda and Teddy again and Emma, you'll see Henry again."

They heard a sound of a twig, snapping.

Hope's head snapped at the direction "What was that?"
