The Most Unexpected Things Happen - Killian Jones FanFic

An Unusual Place - 2

After seeing the doctor about my leg, I slowly make my way back to my room at the inn. I take a seat on my bed and sigh. I only had 2 questions in my mind right now. How was I going go get back home and what would I tell my parents? A knock at the door snapped me out of my thoughts. I get up and answer, only to see the blonde woman from earlier. I see she's wearing what looks like a police badge.

"Hello. Can I help you?" I ask, trying not to sound nervous.
"Granny told me there was someone new here. I just wanted to introduce myself." She says.
"Oh, where are my manners. Would you like to come in?" I ask.
"No thank you. I'm Sheriff Emma Swan." She introduces herself.
"Nice to meet you Sheriff, I'm Jasmine." I say, holding my hand out.

She shakes my hand then asks.

"May I ask where you're from? You have a unique accent."
"I'm from a little country called Wales." I answer, looking down.

It wasn't as if I was lying but it's not a well known place.

"I see. And what are you doing here? In Storybrook?" She asks.
"I've been looking for a place to settle down for a while and bumped into this little town." I answer.
"Very well. Welcome and beware, this town's a little strange." Emma says before leaving.

Well that was definitely weird. I decide to take a walk around town, well, limp around, and see if I meet anyone else new. I check the time and see it's 4:27pm. Hm, it's not that late. Maybe I should get something eat. I head to Granny's diner and when I enter, I see Granny making food and Ruby serving people. I sit at the countertop and Granny comes up to me.

"What're you hungry for?" She asks.

I think about it then say.

"Surprise me."

Granny smiles and goes off to go cook food. As I wait, I take a look around and look at the people here. They looked normal but something was off. What I saw earlier replayed in my head and I shivered a little. Granny comes back with a plate full of food, enough to fill 2 people.

"Thanks Granny. How much will it be?" I ask.
"It's on the house. Consider it a welcome dinner." She says and goes back to serving others.

I dig in to my food and oh my lord, the food is beautiful. I savour every bite and soon enough, I finish my food. I sit back a little and take a deep breath. I see a boy make his way and approaches me.

"Hey." He says, smiling.
"Hey. Where are your parents?" I ask, not seeing an adult with him.
"Oh, I'm here alone. I'm Henry." Henry says.
"Nice to meet you Henry." I say, smiling.

I see Emma come up behind Henry.

"Hey kid, what are you doing here?" She asks him.
"Oh, just talking to." He says but can't finish it.
"Jasmine." I say to him.
"Well it's about time you go home." Emma says to him.

Soon enough, he leaves the diner. Emma just glances at me then leaves. I thank Granny again for the food and leave the diner. When I get outside, I take a deep breath and head to the inn.

"Going somewhere, love?" I hear behind me.

I spin around to see Killian.

"Hey stranger." I say, smiling.
"And I was heading to my room and call it quits for the day." I add.
"How about I show you something?" He says, smirking and raising an eyebrow.

I scrunch my face up then laugh.

"Sure. As long as it's cool." I say, limping next to him.

We get to the docks and the boats all look nice but then I see one which stands out like a sore thumb.

"Oh my word, that ship looks awesome!" I say, happily.
"That's what I wanted to show you, love. I call her The Jolly Roger." Killian says.

This is his?! Where on Earth did he get it from? It couldn't have been cheap either. We board onto The Jolly Roger and I walk along the deck.

"This is amazing! I've never seen one like it. Well, only pictures but never like this." I say, stunned by the boats amazement.
"She's a one of a kind." Killian says.

I look around and then my phone rings. I answer.

"Hello?"
"Jasmine! Where are you?" It was my friend from earlier.

I look at Hook then proceed to answer my friend.

"I'm on my hike. I'm just about to set up my tent. Why?" I ask, a little confused.
"On the same mountain you climbed, there's this....... Weird noise coming from it. It's coming from the well." She explains.

Oh Christ, she's found it.

"Uh I'd avoid it. Just report it or something but don't go near it. You could hurt yourself." I say.
"Okay, I'll try. I'll see you soon hopefully." She says then hangs up.

I really hope she doesn't go near it. I sigh in stress and try to figure something out. I gotta go to that portal. I turn around and see Killian pointing a sword at me.

"How did you get here?" He asks in a nasty tone.
"I'm a traveler." I say with no face expression.
"Yet you're from somewhere called Wales?" He points out.
"I'm a traveler. Which means I travel around countries." I say, putting my hands in my pockets.

Oh hell yes, my knife! I always carry it with me in case of trouble.

"You should always do research before travelling, love." He says, making the point of swords touch my throat.

That was it. I panicked and jumped off the ship and onto the wooden walk way. I run as fast as I can to the forest. I knew this town was weird but I didn't know it was this weird. I make it back to where I first ended up and start to feel dizzy. I take out my phone and phone my friend.

"Hello?" They answer.
"Hey, I need a favour." I say, out of breath.
"And that is?" They ask.
"Jump in the well." I say
"What?! Are you out of your mind, I'll get stuck." She exclaims.
"You won't. Trust me." I say then she hangs up.

I put my phone back in my pocket and sigh. A couple of minutes later and I hear a load of voices. I'm screwed. Then suddenly, my friend pops through out of nowhere. I see everyone and they stop in their tracks, looking between me and my friend.

"That's how we came through!" I say to them.

I crouch next to my friend.

"You okay?" I ask her.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Where are we?" She asks, standing up.

I stand up fully and look at everyone.

"I don't know. Ask them. After all, this unusual place is where they live." I say then I see Killian.

He looks almost guilty but I can't tell.
