Storytelling (K.Hook)

Another Dark One

Now. Storybrooke. At the hospital.

I teleported myself into Zelena's room. Robin was carrying the newborn baby.

Me "Look who's glowing. Congrats."

I threw Whale against the wall.

Robin shook his head and aimed a sword at me "I will not let you take this baby. "

Regina "Not without a fight. "

I smiled " I'm not after the baby, Regina, so calm down"

then i vanished with Zelena.

At my house. Night.In the dungeon.

I walked inside and saw Hook and Zelena sitting there talking. Of course, i had chained them to the walls.

Hook " Why does she need more dark magic? "

I shook my head "i don't. I'm not taking Zelena's magic. I'm giving her mine instead. "

Zelena froze.

Killian stood up, shocked " What? "

Me "Killian, you were right. My plan is not to destroy light magic. It's been to destroy dark magic... The dark magic that's inside of me. "

Hook" If that were true, why keep it secret from me or the rest of your family? "

Me " Because I knew you would never let me do what was necessary to get the job done. "

Zelena"And that's where I come in. "

I nodded "Yes. The darkness needs to be contained in a vessel... you. "

Hook asked confused "Echo, what are you going to do? "

Me "What needs to be done. I'm going to cut her down with Excalibur's enchanted blade, and the darkness will be vanquished forever. "

Zelena"That's why you needed my baby out. "

I shook my head " I don't want anyone to get hurt who doesn't have to. There are limits. "

Hook "You call those limits, Echo? You're still talking about cold-blooded murder."

Me "Killian, she killed Marian. She killed Baelfire. Given time, she will kill you, too"

Zelena "After today, you can be certain."

Hook shook his head " This isn't about Zelena, Echo. It's about you. We went to Camelot for Merlin's help. Surely he has a solution to the darkness that doesn't require this. "

I shook my head " Merlin can't help us anymore. "

Hook asked confused "Why not? What happened there? Why are you really doing this? "

Camelot. Three weeks ago. Outside Granny's.

I was sitting on the stone, looking at the red ember and the dagger on the ground.

Hook walked to me "There you are. Been looking everywhere for you. "

Me "Dagger's right here. Regina was going to use it on me. Why not you? "
