Within the walls of The Evil Queen's Palace, a stranger covered with a dark cloak approached to the guards, among them Claude, who protected the door of a room to which an important person towards the Queen stayed.
"Halt." Claude told the stranger.
"Food for the prisoner." The stranger told as he he showed a pail with some food.
"It's not meal time. Who are you?! Identify yourself, slave!" Claude demanded. At that being said another Guard appeared.
The Stranger took of the cloak as he then proceeded to kill the guard with his hook imbedded into their chests.
"Slave? I prefer Captain." Hook stated as he then stole the guard's keys, and entered Belle's cell, "Hi. You must be Belle."
"The Queen sent you, didn't she? She wants you to kill me." The helpless girl worried.
Hook shook his head as he said, "I'm not here to kill you, love. I'm here to rescue you."
"Rescue me? Who are you?" Belle questioned the man.
"A friend. We haven't much time. Your father's life is in danger. He's being attacked by the very same monster who stole you away from your family in the first place." Hook explained rather quickly as he went to walk out the room.
"What, Rumplestiltskin?" Belle asked. She knew that he wouldn't harm her family yet confusion swept across her.
"The Dark One - he must be stopped. You've spent more time with him than anyone. There are rumors of a magical weapon that has the power to kill him." Hook told.
"No. No. No. Let... let me talk to him. He's not a monster." Belle shook her head at the thought of him being a monster. If there was one thing she knew, it was that he wasn't the thing who people thought he was.
"Belle, your father's life hangs in the balance. I need to know what that weapon is and where to find it." Hook told. He hoped that she would help him if her father was on the brink of death.
"I don't know what you're talking about, and I have no idea how to... kill Rumplestiltskin." Belle told.
Hook rose a brow as he asked, "You don't?"
"No! And nor would I." Belle stated.
"Hmm. Then I'm afraid I'm not here to rescue you." Hook said as he then proceeded to slap Belle, which knocked her unconscious, "So pretty... yet so useless." He rose his hook to kill her, but as he goes to strike, his hook disappeared.
