1.27 Truths

At Storybrooke.

Ruby and Bae helped Gold off the ship and walked with him into town. Snow, Ruby and Charming rushed to us.

Charming helped Bae with Gold who was getting weaker and weaker. 

Henry smiled proudly  "i drove a ship"

Charming "did you, now?"

Henry nodded "yeah my dad showed me how"

Baw "That's me"

Charming froze.

They walked him to the truck.

Gold leaned against the truck "thank you, thank you"

Ruby hugged me "hi"

I hugged her back "hey"

Charmin "is Croa trying to control you with the dagger?"

Gold "Well, you'd know if she was, because if then most of you would be dead already"

Snow"Well, then, we'll just have to take the fight to her before that can happen"

Charming nodded "we will"

Me "and this time, we finish it"

Charming looked at me "Echo-"

I shook my head "no, Charming. She needs to be stopped. She needs to be killed"

Charming sighed  "Echo, think about it"

I nodded "i am thinking. I am thinking about everything she did to me!"

He walked to me "i know"

I shook my head "you don't"

Charming "Echo, i don't have a problem with Cora dying for everything she's done to you. but not by your hand and not out of vengeance"

Me "why?"

Charming "Because you wouldn't be able to live with yourself"

I scoffed, shaking my head "you have no idea with what i'm already living with, Charming"

Emma asked Gold "you okay?"

Gold "I'm beginning to feel a bit stronger. Take me to my shop. There's magic there that can protect us"

Henry "let me guess, i get to go with Ruby"

I smiled, nodding "exactly, kid"

Ruby "i'll keep him out of the crossfire"

I nodded "thank you"

Henry "don't look so worried. You'll stop Cora. You won't let her get away"

Then he walked after Ruby.

At the shop.

Emma was drawing a protection line on the front door and the rest of us were preparing for a battle.

The others left but Gold stopped me "Echo"

I turned to him "Yes"

Gold "could bring me a warmer blanket from the cabinet, please?"

I nodded "sure "

i walked over to it and opened it. I froze when i saw my mother's crown in there.

I grabbed it and turned him "why do you have this?"
