Light and Dark: Darkness Reigns

Excalibur

          Evie greeted David and Snow at Sheriff Station she said "Seems to me you're wondering what I'm up to" Snow said "Where's Emma?" she said "Oh sweet Snow don't worry about her she's reflecting on her true purpose" David said "Tell us what happened in Camelot we can help you" she said "Help, you helped enough here's a friendly warning King Arthur isn't an asset he's more like a pain in the ass" Snow said "What do you mean?" she said "You are smart you figure it out" she vanished into cloud of smoke. Evie greeted by Rumple illusion he said "So name dropping that tin soldier was what exactly?" she said "Just placing a sign of doubt into their budding friendship because I have a way to remove Excalibur" he said "Do tell" she said "I need a beast with a clean slate I know just the person for the job". Evie had arranged for Hook to pick up food for a lunch on Jolly Roger she appeared in the same dress as their first date she said "Hi Killian" he said "That's not funny, appearing like that" she said "I'm sorry, I just wanted to show you the true side of me and I owe you that" he said "I would like that very much" she turned the food into their date all set on plates so elegantly she sat down as did he she said "You can trust me" showing him her eyes being so genuine. Eating he said "What's behind that locked door?" she said "Hobby of mine, given being the Dark One I can't sleep so designing new clothes, hairstyles, new fashions" he said "My Evie don't play games" she said "You really know when I lie, kudos to that I'm different, better" he said "As the Dark One?" she said "I'm no longer emotional and out of control, I'm in control and now I see things clearly" he said "You suggest we move forward in a real relationship?" she said "Rumple and Belle loved each other" he said "I don't think you should use the crocodile as your example" she poured a glass of wine she said "He was born a coward, he didn't find true love till he became the Dark One you told me how he was he begged and cried on this ship" he said "I was the villain in that drama, Evie he was trying to keep his family together I took this cutlass put it to his head and taunted him, I was the one who changed for the better because of you" she got up she said "You remember when we were in the storybook given we didn't know each other yet there was a strong connection and how we were falling in love but the moment you died brought me back it awakened my powers full of emotion because that was love" he said "Enough games, why you bring me here? You need something, Dark One" she transformed her clothes into her rebel look something Katherine Pierce would wear she said "I need your trust that's it" he said "I liked you before" she said "She's still inside me, my question for you is do you love me? If you tell me you don't I will let you go?" he said "I loved you" she holding back the tears she said "You can have the ship" she vanished leaving him feeling the pain of his words. Evie watching King Arthur via her mirror she said "He thinks he'll overcome all of us he's dead wrong" Emma said "Evie just let me out and I can tell the others we can help you" she said "Like you did Killian, no this is my mission and I will do what it takes even if I lose myself in the process" Emma said "You sound like Cora" she said "Well I took a page from her book, my heart is my weakness and it would stop me from what I'm about to do". Belle noticed via her magical rose Rumple was waking up given all it's petals went back on the flower but when she got to the shop he was gone. Evie had Rumple in the tunnels she greeted by Rumple illusion he said "Stroke of luck finding the one object that touched him when he was a man" she said "I worked hard for that" he said "By destroying the pirate's love for you" she said "Well it had to be done, we all know love is weakness" he said "Spoken like your grandmother Cora" she said "Well, apple don't fall far from the tree" she crumbled the cutlass into dust sprinkling it onto Rumple he woke to see her he said "What do you want from me? You're the Dark One not me" she said "Yes but you're not dark or light, you're nothing which makes you useful, I'm turning you into the thing you wouldn't expect you to be, a hero and then I have a job for you".

          Evie remembering Camelot as she held the middlemist flower Hook gave her Rumple said "I know how the darkness feels, but you don't have to give in to it" she said "The only one who can get me that sword is you, so no escaping for you" he said "I can't be the hero you want" she said "You just need the proper motivation, luckily I know someone who can help". She came to outskirts of Storybrooke where she had one Merida tied up she said "I should've trusted my gut and kept that heart of yours because now you will work for me". She ripped her heart out she said "Hearts are precious my grandmother Cora thought so because you can bend someone's heart to your will, to have complete control over them" she freed her she said "Pick up your bow, there's a guy in town you wouldn't like him he's a real coward but for what I need him for has to change I need you to make him like you, make him brave". Evie brought Rumple food she untied him she said "Eat you're going to need your strength to remove this sword" he said "Let me see Belle, please" she said "Give me my sword" he said "You have so much power why do you need Excalibur?" she said "Tell me as Dark One did you advertise your plans?" she being sarcastically he said "No, more you justify the reasons of why the more you push them away" she said "Merida" she walked out and greeted them she said "Yes Dark One" she said "Take him to the woods and begin" she said "How long are you going to hold my heart and threaten me?" she said "As long as I get what I want" she went to charge her but Evie holding her heart she said "Take him to the woods and make me a hero got that" she walked over to Rumple and Evie swooshed them to the woods she said "Much better". She walked out to her shed she unlocked and found all the dreamcatchers hanging from the rafters she also found a box she opened it to reveal her beating heart inside she said "For the good of everyone" she closed it and hid it.

          She came back to the front porch to Henry he said "Evie, I need your help" she said "Really, why's that?" he said "My friend's horse is missing I figured you could help me find him" she said "Well I'm free at the moment, why not but no promises on anything else" he said "Okay" they left. This allowed for Regina, Hook, Robin, and Belle to break into her house Evie knew they would try something so she left a present in form of a mirror Emma she would watch all when they broke inside they found how nice it looked and went to the locked door Emma said "I wouldn't do that if I were you?" Regina said "Emma" she said "Yeah" Belle said "Evie put you in the mirror" seeming confused by that. Emma said "Evie doesn't have her heart she can't feel anything" Regina said "We need to know what's behind that door" Emma said "Well, go and see" they did and found Excalibur in stone they noticed it's designs same as the dagger Regina's phone beeped from a text by Henry Evie is on her way back they had to get out of there. They hurried out Evie went inside her house she saw nothing out of sorts she said "Emma, is everything fine" Emma said "Just fine Evie" she said "Oh by the way thanks for telling them I have no heart" she said "What?" she said "I'm not an idiot, I know they were here your son my brother was being quite clever by dragging me away from the house so they can see what's behind the locked door" she said "You knew, yet you went along with it" she said "I maybe heartless but I'm not naive they want to help me I'll give them what they want in exchange my plan will be unstoppable then you will be free as promised" she said "Evie" she said "I'm going to relax, today was a exhausting day" she left for upstairs for a bubble bath. Remembering all from Camelot she freed Merlin by hurting Henry to do so she had became the worst part of herself to do so she greeted Rumple illusion he said "My, my don't we all look chummy" she said "Do you mind, I'm relaxing" he said "They will get in the way of our plans" she said "I have everything under control so buzz off".
