Act 1

"Well you're pretty small so I guess big spoon." Faro says jokingly, moving to wrap his arm over the other boy. Jay isn't actually much smaller than him, but teasing the other boy is fun.
 
"That's what you think," Jay said with a suggestive smirk, but gladly accepted the mer's arms around him.  It took a while, but Jay was eventually able to move past that state where Faro's lithe body pressing up against his was exciting and titillating, and was actually able to relax and just enjoy the closeness.  His breathing slowly fell into sync with Faro's, and it wasn't long before he, too, fell asleep. 
 
Music to listen to while reading:










Archie Hopper


'Archie' made sure they were out of sight before he flicked his hand. Grey gasses consumed them and quickly faded, leaving no trace that it was ever there.


Fin Dovah


Two men appeared in Fendrake's clinic. "Hello Archie! Are you here to pick up Pongo? He's all healed up."


Pongo started to growl.


"Yes, thanks to your new apprentice, Loki." 'Archie' said. "Say, could I get a truth serum?"


"I never told you about Loki." Fendrake started to back up, clearly scared. "How did you know about him? Who are you?"


'Archie' smiled sadistically, raising a wooden bat. "Oops."


'Archie' began to beat Fendrake with the bat repeatedly. Fendrake started to bleed. "Stupid old fool."


As Fendrake began to black out, he whispered one last spell - a distress signal to Loki.


Archie Hopper


"This is an inferior vessel to a vessel such as Emma Swan or Rumplestiltskin." 'Archie' said. "But unfortunately, I can't just ditch this vessel, as the real Archie knows my plan. Therefore, I need to discredit him."


'Archie' dropped the bat by Fendrake's knocked out body. He started to rub his hands and fingerprints all over the crime scene. "Unfortunately, we can't kill Fendrake just yet, so we need to make it look like he's dead."


'Archie' grabbed a bloodied knife. "The old fool used this knife to cut himself so he could teach Loki how to heal, and he never cleaned it off." 'Archie' leaned over and chopped off Fendrake's hand. He used the hand to spell out a message on the wall in blood: HENRY IS NEXT.


'Archie' got up and dropped the hand right by the bat, laughing sadistically. Pongo whimpered and ran out of the clinic. "Stupid canine." 'Archie' grunted, grabbing everything he needed, including truth potions. He grabbed the wall phone on the clinic and dialed 911.


"911, what's your emergency?" 


'Archie' grinned. He grabbed Fendrake's knocked out body and threw it over his shoulders. Once again, grey gasses consumed them and quickly faded. 'Archie' and Hayes were gone.


...


"911, what's your emergency?"

Crime Scene:


There is a puddle of blood on the floor. A knife, a wooden bat, and Fendrake's chopped off hand are laying right next to it. On the wall is a message in blood reading: HENRY IS NEXT. The wall phone is dangling, and the police are still on the line. Archie's fingerprints are all over the scene.

Loki


Loki saw Pongo running out of Fandrake's clinic, "Pongo?" Loki questioned as he ran up to him and stopped him, "what is it boy?" He started to calm him down, he then proceeded to run to the clinic sensing that there was something wrong. Upon entering he was shocked at what he saw, there was a bloodied hand on the ground something written in blood on the ground, "what on earth happened here?" The smell of iron was thick in the air, the pool of blood on the floor was almost nauseating. Something was telling Loki that Fandrake was dead, Loki wasn't sure whether or not to flee the scene. It would look bad if he left and someone saw him, so for now he picked up the phone and talked with the other person on the end who was calling out for anyone to answer. 


The voice on the other line told Loki to wait there until the Sheriff would arrive, Loki agreed and hung up the phone and waited.

Merlin


Merlin watched in horror as his spell conjured up a cyclone. To his relief, it lasted for mere seconds, but Merlin's face returned to the grim look when he saw the new arrival.


"Zelena."


@LadyAria


Henry Mills


Smoke with Valentine's Day coloring filled the room. Everyone started to cough. The smoke eventually cleared enough for everyone to see that Henry had disappeared.


@Chello @commanderproton
 
Emma Swan


"Henry!" She cried out totally ignoring that her phone has been ringing nonstop for the past little while, finally she answered it. "What! This is not..What do you mean? Okay, fine..I'll..I'll be there," she hung it up and ran out to Regina and Snow. "Henry is gone, and there has been a murder or something and the clinic. Fandrake is gone, it's apparently pretty bad. I don't want to leave, but I have to. This has to be Hades' doing," Emma spoke taking a deep breath. "Once I'm done there, just meet me at the station." She told them before running out of the hospital and headed to the clinic, when she arrived she was shocked at what she saw especially with the threat made towards Henry.


Emma talked with Loki for a bit, "what happened here? And who are you exactly? I've never seen you before, what is your relation to Fandrake?"


Loki explained everything to Emma, "I found Pongo running out in fear. So I felt that something was wrong and when I came I saw this," he told her.


Emma covered her nose and mouth with her sleeve, "okay. Do you happen to know anything about Hades?"


"Like the greek god of the underworld? Not much, just he is very powerful and evil. He makes me look like a saint," Loki told her. "We need to find Fandrake, he's a good man. He is teaching me to be a healer, nobody has ever given me that chance." 


Emma nodded, "we will find him but for now I think you should come with me. We need to talk more," she added grabbing him by the arm leading him out of the clinic


Loki sighed and went with her, he knew that they would suspect him. He should have just left, he was pushed into the car and Emma drove to the station and when she arrived she told Loki to sit down on a chair. 


"I didn't do this you know, why would I? I have nothing against Fandrake," Loki told her.


"Until the evidence comes back to clear your name you are to remain here," she added handcuffing him to the table.

As she slowly managed to get to her feet she dusted off the black embroidered dress she had been wearing, arranging her signature black pointed hat, that is until she heard a male - a familiar male, "Well well well," she trailed off as she turned facing him, green eyes piercing towards him. "If it isn't the sorcerer himself" - she may have lost the green skin but the look in her eyes still said everything. "Where the hell am I? SURELY not in Oz, is this you ratchet doing?"


@Riuma
 
Regina was screaming, clawing at the bed Henry had occupied.  An orderly tried to pull her away and she broke his collarbone.  Eventually, she got herself under control.  She stood.  She wiped the tears and streaks of makeup from her cheeks.  


 And the Queen leveled a glare at the hospital staff.  "You will cordon off this entire section," she decreed with absolute, undeniable authority.  "No one in or out.  Is that understood?"


Without waiting for an answer, she spun on her heel and strode towards Snow.  "We have work to do," she said, and the pair of them vanished in a plume of smoke, reappearing in the sheriff's office.

"Regina, Mary. Thank you for coming, Fandrake is missing as well and presumed dead. Was there anything left behind at the hospital to tell us where Henry might have gone?" Emma asked, "and another thing there was a message written in blood saying Henry is next. This has to be Hades."


Loki


Loki looked at Regina, "now there is a cool trick. I must learn how to do that, I could get around much faster that way." He spoke, "Henry..Is he your son?" Loki asked.

Hayes enjoyed being wrapped in magic and lost himself in the feeling. He let out a deep breath and grinned as they landed in a clinic. Hayes watched the scene unfold and didn't even flinch as 'Archie' nearly beat the man to death. He did flinch at the man's hand being cut off, causing a phantom pain to shoot through his neck. Soon Hades had finished and they were once again embraced by magic. When they landed once more, Hayes turned to 'Archie'.


"So shall we begin?" Hayes said holding his hand out for the serum.


@Riuma
 
Officer Phusko


[Anyone get the reference?]


"Sheriff Swan, the fingerprints on the knife, bat, and hand have been identified as Dr. Archibald Hopper's." Officer Phusko took off his fedora and looked down sadly. "In other news...the blood found on the scene is an exact match to Fendrake's. I'm so sorry...all signs are pointing to him being dead."


@Chello @commanderproton @Zaryn


Archie Hopper


'Archie' and Hayes were in an abandoned apartment room that looked like it had been set up for a date.


"So shall we begin?" Hayes said, holding his hand out for the serum.


"Indeed." 'Archie' said, handing Hayes the truth serum. "Bone appetit."

"Archie? That's not possible, I mean he's never harmed anyone in his life. This can't be," she sighed. "Thank you officer," she then turned to Loki. "Well I guess you are free to go," she told him unlocking the cuffs. "Archie has been acting strange lately, but murder.."


Loki


"I want to help, I can help you somehow. Fandrake can't be dead, I don't know how but something tells me he is alive." Loki told them.
 
Merlin


"Storybrooke." Merlin said, taking out the cuff. "You're in Storybrooke."


Zelena felt something gripping her arm.


"You can't use your magic now." Merlin said. "It's time for you to be where you belong."


Merlin cast a temporary sleeping spell on Zelena, and a blue smoke shrouded Merlin and Zelena, teleporting them to the police station.


"Sheriff Swan! Sheriff Swan!" Merlin ran up to Emma with the sleeping body of Zelena. "She's a bad woman!"


Merlin took out a dreamcatcher to prove it, inadvertently bringing back Regina's memories of Zelena as the dreamcatcher played back all the bad things Zelena had done. Zelena started to wake up.

Emma Swan


Emma took a deep breath, what more could go wrong? She just looked at the dream catcher and watched everything that it was showing her, "great..So The Wicked Witch of the West is here, in my station no less. Great..Regina have any suggestions?" She asked looking at her.
 
Hayes held the bottle in his hand weighing it. Then, he tipped it back and let the liquid fall into his mouth. It had a funny taste going down and he resisted the urge to gag a bit. Hayes finished the bottle and put it down.


"All right. I think we're good to go." Hayes said shivering slightly.


@Riuma
 
Snow White


She stared in fear when the smoke surrounded Henry and he disappeared faster than Emma could get her hands on him. The next thing she registered was Regina's screams, jolting her out of her own shock. She stayed with the woman, keeping herself together as much as possible so to not have everyone turn into a mess. Once she calmed and approached her, she nodded her head in agreement. "That's for sure." The smoke consumed them and they appeared in the Sherriff's office with a few new faces.


Snow could barely believe her ears at what the Officer told them. Someone had been killed? "Archie? No that's impossible." She shook her head. Archie couldn't do this, not in his right mind. Oh. "Wait. If Hades is behind this, what if he possessed Archie? He's after souls right? Maybe Archie was just an easy way to get into Storybrooke." She folded her arms. "But why take Henry?"


What's more Merlin came running in carrying an out cold witch. "Oh you've got to be kidding me." The Wicked Witch of the West too? After a few moments she looked back to Emma and Regina. "Do you think she has anything to do with this too?"
 
Regina sneered at the suggestion Archie was behind the healer's murder.  "The cricket doesn't have the guts for something like this," she said.  "It's pretty clear he's just a puppet.  Which is perfect irony, really."


When Loki was introduced, she arched a brow.  "This world calls you a trickster god," she said.  "If you've got any kind of power, consider yourself drafted."


Then came Merlin with his little find.  "You have *got* to be kidding me," she said.  


Then he produced the dreamcatcher, replaying the witch's memories.  Regina shook her head, watching the woman's past unspool before her eyes.  "No...that...that can't be possible," she said.  "I don't have a sister, I would--" and then she saw the imp, revealing to Zelena how Cora sent her away as a baby.


"Well, shit."
 
Emma Swan


"Maybe, maybe not. If she had just came here I doubt that, but we should question her. Question what she is doing here and why," Emma responded. "So you have a sister Regina, maybe that's why she is here to seek you out. But whatever it maybe we need to find Henry first before something happens."


Loki


"Well I have a suggestion, I could call Hades out and tell him I want to join in on his little game. As you know I have a reputation for causing trouble, I'm sure he'll want someone of my talents." Loki responded, "of course I will just be playing. I'm not actually going to join the lord of the underworld."
 
~Zelena~


The witch was in the verge of waking up as it felt like a wave of amnesia brush vet her - remembering the drop just not what happened when Merlin sent her to sleep. Slowly opening her eyes her blurred vision showed that she was enclosed in some building , a soft grunt escaped her lips as she saw the face of the sorcerer and jolted a few steps back, "Where the hell did you take me?" She only focused on him when she turned she noticed two other females - both familiar from the Crystal ball she sought her little sister. She froze for a mere second as she finally managed to find herself in this so called Storybrooke - the question  was how did she end up here. Who had created the cyclone? "I got no time to waste here" she spewed out as she waved her hand only to remain there - "Wh--- What have you done to my magic?"
 
Archie Hopper


"The serum should last for 24 hours." 'Archie' said, noticing a card on the floor. He leaned over and picked it up. "Merlin...." 'Archie' muttered. "What do you know about the legendary sorcerer Merlin, and how did you get his card?"


"Wh-where am I?' Fendrake was waking up.


'Archie' leaned over and punched Fendrake, knocking him out again.


@Eagleye415


Merlin


"Hades? My visions did not warn me of a Hades. Care to explain?"


@Chello @commanderproton
 
Loki


"Guess you've never read the stories, Hades is the god of the underworld or Greek god however the people here put it. He's very powerful at least from what I've read," he told Merlin before looking towards Zelena. "Well isn't that a shame you don't have your magic and here I was looking forward to seeing the green witch in action," he smirked.


Emma Swan


"Archie was talking and going on about Hades wanting souls, he disappeared from the hospital after he collapsed. He is also accused of killing Fandrake, now we have no idea where he is and our son Henry is gone." Emma explained. 
 
Merlin


"I know who Hades is, I was just curious what his business was here."


"Archie was talking and going on about Hades wanting souls, he disappeared from the hospital after he collapsed. He is also accused of killing Fendrake, now we have no idea where he is and our son Henry is gone." Emma explained. 


"And a crime happened at Fendrake's clinic; my visions at least warned me about that." Merlin frowned. "Two missing persons, that is very worrisome. I could find them easily, but my powers and visions have been behaving strangely since I got to Storybrooke. I should've got a vision about Hades."

The witch made a sour face as she noted the cuff on her right wrist which when she tried to rip it off it stung her a little "Argh.." she grumbled as she waved we hand a little from the sting, "Well sorry to disappoint you honey but I am no longer green either" she stated sarcastically. However she froze internally as she heard the name... that name. Hades. The past she could never erase and the shred of love she felt - until she brought it up to her of still thinking all that they passed through was a trick. She have seen what he can do and the power he can hold first handed - however she figred it was better to stay silent as they could be after him. Even though they would be foolish enough to go after him. 


@whoever is in the sheriff station cause im confused xD

"It's okay Merlin, I don't think anyone was expecting Hades to crawl from beneath the ground or in some form." Emma responded, "well if you can just try and locate Henry than maybe we can find Archie or Hades who is apparently passing off as Archie."


Loki


"What about my plan, if I just call out for Hades and join him than maybe he'll lead me to wherever he is hiding. Than I will contact you guys and tell you where it is," Loki told them.
 
Regina narrowed her eyes at the Asgardian.  "Not to sound suspicious,' she deadpanned, "but I have no reason to trust you.  I don't even remember bringing you here with the curse.  Suddenly you're here, people are dead, and my son is missing.  No offense, but I am not going to trust a complete stranger to act as a mole."
