alone and waiting

Killian walked the docks, trying to resist the temptation, the desire, to go back to his ship and drink, his worry over Emma wanting to send him back into bad habits. He'd felt so ready to kill Felix, the wish to just put his hook through the boy's neck a strong one, and it's one that he's still fighting against. Except the boy was gone now, and Killian doesn't know exactly where. Wherever Pan was, surely, but even that, the pirate didn't know. It is both fortunate and not so much, for it does keep Killian from committing an act of murder, even if it means he has no idea where Emma is. He'd left the center of town--and every other citizen--after the confrontation with Felix, choosing instead to be on the docks. Alone.

Red wakes up on the ground in the edge of the forest, with no memory of the past night. "- what - what happened? Where am I?"

Child of the Moon || Red + Open

Humans want us to believe we're the monsters. The moment you believe them that's when you become one.

With the help of Graham and Granny, Red was locked inside the freezer at the diner. Focusing on her breathing, she tried to keep calm. But it was no use. Mentally preparing herself for the worst, she'd taken every precaution possible: chains, handcuffs, and ropes tied her together and kept her in place. For now. Closing her eyes, Quinn's voice echoed through her ears, followed by her mother's. Though Red never agreed with their methods or way of life, they had helped her control the wolf before. How? By forcing her to let go of her fears. 

Once one controls something, one know longer need fear it.

Twenty-eight years later, Red was consumed by fear. Fear was her enemy. It wrapped around her like a secret, strangling her as the moon began to rise. With every passing moment, Red could feel herself start to lose control. She begged, whimpered, and nearly screamed "- No!" but it was too late. Her shout turned into a howl and with a few twitches, the wolf took over. Breaking free from the cage, it ran out of Granny's and into the night, stopping only at the sight of its prey...

These New Flocks are Nothing but Vultures // Panlix

Adrenaline. The familiar feeling that he had so missed passed hurriedly through his veins, his heart nearly beating out of his chest. How had he managed for so long without falling back into old and enticing habits? What they had managed to pull off on this night was positively thrilling. When he had learned of Felix's threats to the pirate they despised so greatly, the opportunity had been all too tempting. Then Emma Swan had practically set herself up for danger, holing herself up alone in that station; it had been all to easy to kidnap her. The fight she had put up was a pleasant surprise, but there had only been one of her, and too many of them. The boys were trained to be silent and inconspicuous, which had meant an easy retreat back into the forest with the treasured Savior in tow. 

Peter had selected the twins as lookouts for the time being, while he waited for the town to stir a little. It wouldn't be long before someone noticed her absence, which meant they had little time to make decisions. They had to choose the best way to use Emma as an advantage, and for that, there was only one person he would turn to. With little grace, he dropped Emma's body on the forest floor behind shrubbery, then turned to look at his most loyal lost boy. "Well done, Felix," a wicked smirk formed on his lips when he spoke, his voice low. "Looks like we're back in business."

"Is this town ever just... normal?"

[drunkenxpirate-blog]

He was just heading into town from the docks when he noticed the commotion. What is it now? It seemed like every passing day saw something going on in this town. Was it this crazy before the curse broke? No. No it wasn't. Still, he'd supposed he'd rather have 'crazy and right' than 'cursed and normal'. He walked through the town, trying to judge what was going on to cause it.
