Land Ahead.

I walk up to the address Emma gave me, my heart pounding against my chest. I buzz myself in and head down to the storage area in the basement. My hands are sweating profusely as I walk down the dark, narrow stairway.

When I get to the bottom of the stairs, I can hear cursing and metal clinking against each other. At least he’s alive, I think as I run towards the noise and finally towards the storage cages. My heart stops when I see him and he’s handcuffed to one of the barred walls.

“You really like bondage don’t you?” I ask with a smirk, earning his attention. A smile quickly forms on his lips as I walk over to him as quickly as I can.

“You have no idea how happy I am to see you here.” He tells me, trying to come over to the doorway but unable to due to his cuffed hand.

“I’m not actually happy that you nearly killed Gold, I thought we were pass that.” I sigh as I walk closer to him, putting my hand on his own. “Why did you go after him? I thought you were only working for Cora to protect me and Morgan; did you lie to my again?”

His eyes advert mine and I immediately remove my hand from his. “You’re mad, I get it. But--”

The wait isn’t long when a dark skinned woman walks into the room. She’s pretty, wearing a dark grey sweater; but her pretty face quickly turns ugly as a look of disgusts contorts her face. He walks over to the storage cage Hook’s in and just stands in front of it; staring at him in disgust. I can’t hear what she’s telling him, and I can’t go much on his looks because let’s face it; Hook always has a smirk on his face. Before I know, she’s opening the storage cage and yanking Hook out of there; dragging him off. He only looks at me what I think are pleading eyes. I could feel my heart pound against my chest as I watch him being taken away by some mystery girl.

As she walks away, I tail her; making sure I don’t make any noise. I follow her into a back alley where a there is a truck parked with a tow away storage attached. I watch as she throws Killian into the back before closing it up then walking to the truck and getting inside. I watch the truck drive away through tears. I lean up against the wall and begin to sink to the ground as I feel a pain in my heart. I failed…
