Finding You Always

Chapter 67: Second Star to the Right

"This is your last chance. Tell me where you buried him," Greg growled.

"I don't remember!" Regina cried. Greg seethed and turned the dial up to full power.

"Then I hope you've said your goodbyes, Your Majesty," he spat, as he prepared to turn the machine on and at this voltage, Regina knew it would kill her. As he reached for the switch, a bullet hit the machine, shorting it out. He jumped away from the sparks in surprise, as David leveled his gun at him.

"Don't move," he growled. But the crazed look in Greg's eyes did not dissipate and he toppled the table Regina was strapped to over, leaving them to scramble to catch her, as he made his escape. They got the table upright again and David gave chase, with Xander following him.

"Oh Regina," Robin cried, as he and Snow worked on unbuckling her restraints.

"I'm okay," she promised, as Snow touched the black cuff on her wrists, but found herself unable to remove it.

"What is this?" she asked.

"It blocks my magic, a lovely little device they've created. I don't know how to get it off," she replied.

"Shh...we'll figure it out," Robin soothed.

"Snow...they have more of them. For Emma and the twins...and even Gold," she warned, as Robin lifted his wife into his arms. Snow gasped, as they heard gunshots ring out.

"Go...I've got her," Robin promised. Snow rushed out to find her husband and daughter.

As Tamara made her way toward the exit at the cannery, she unexpectedly found Neal in her path.

"Tamara...what are you doing?" he asked in disbelief.

"I'm doing what needs to be done. Magic is a disease. It has no place in this world. You more than anyone should hate magic," Tamara spat.

"Tamara...there are good people in this town," he tried to reason with her. But she pulled a gun on him.

"Sorry Neal...this isn't personal," she said, pointing it at him.

"Not personal?" he asked in disbelief, as he started toward her. But to his shock, she shot him and he went down. However, she didn't see Emma coming, as she kicked the gun out of her hand. The two women wrestled, exchanging punches, until Tamara finally managed to throw the blonde off. She threw a bean and a swirling green portal opened, forcing Emma to let her get away in favor of grabbing Neal's arm.

"Don't let go," Emma cried.

"I'm gonna pull you in too and Henry can't lose us both," he said.

"Just hang on," she pleaded, as she saw her brother arrive with Graham in tow. He dove next to her and grabbed Neal's other arm. They pulled him up and the portal closed. They lay him on his back and Emma used her scarf to put pressure on his gunshot wound.

"We need to get him to Eva," Leo said.

"Hang on Neal, I'm going to poof us to the hospital," she said.

"Do you know how to do that yet?" Leo asked.

"We're about to find out," Emma replied, as the three of them disappeared in a puff of white smoke.

Greg kept toppling items into his path, as he ran. Charming evaded and jumped over the obstructions, as he chased him. Finally Greg turned around and fired a gun. David and Xander had to dodge his spray of bullets, taking cover behind some fish crates. But not before one clipped David's arm. Satisfied with that, Greg escaped.
