We travel through a long hallway I have never been in before, it had large framed pictures of different people, it was probably past kings and queens I guessed.  They took a sharp left turn and kept walking strait, I wonder where we are going.  Just as I was thinking that Emma stops and waits for me leaving Henry to lead the way.

"What's wrong kid" she asks looking down at my dark hair and bright pale blue eyes

"Henry doesn't seem to want me here, maybe I should go back" I say looking up into her eyes

"He will get use to you, he still is a little petrified that you ripped his heart out" she says smiling a little

 "I wish I never did that" I say looking down at my boots now

"Yes but, you fixed it, you brought them back" she says

"Yes but I didn't know that, and what if I didn't do it, what if I couldn't" I say

"You did the right thing that is what matters" she says stopping and placing her hands on my shoulders

"But what if I didn't, what if it happens again" I say

"Molly, you did do it, and it won't happen again I promise" she says looking me in the eyes in a concerned matter

"Guys, are you coming" Henry yells down the hall

"Yes" I say running after him leaving Emma chasing after me. I run up to Henry and he flinches a little

"I won't hurt you Henry, I promise" I say looking into his eyes, a tingling feeling runs threw my body and I shiver, not the kind I got when Zelena was watching us, this was different, this was like warmth.

"Okay, lets go" Henry says walking done another hallway

"Where are we going" I ask

"We are going to the study, I am the author if you didn't know, this is where I come to write" he says smiling at me

I get the same tingling feeling again "I didn't know that you were the author, can you write the darkness out of me" I ask smiling at him

"That's what I am trying to do" he says

"Why? I thought you hated me" I say walking along side him

"I don't hate you, and everyone deserves a second chance, it isn't your fault your the Darkone now" he says

"It's Zelena's" I say darkly

"Molly, you are sounding all dark again, control it"

"Okay, I will try" I say

We arrive at a small locked wooden door and Henry takes out a old looking key and puts it into the lock and opens the door.  The room is wonderful, there is a large oak desk in the middle surrounded by shelves of large blank books that look similar to the on Henry's book is in.  He sits at the desk and begins to write, he looks up, nothing happens.

"Why isn't it working" he asks as he stands up and walks over to Emma and me

"I don't know kid" Emma says placing her hand on his shoulder

"Keep trying, I believe you can do it" I say smiling at him

"Okay, I'll try" he smiles and walks back to his desk and begins to write

"Do you feel different" he asks looking up

"Nope" I say looking back at him

"How about now"

"Nope" I say, this goes on until a little bit after lunch when we decide we are done for the day and we walk back to the hall.  This time it is Henry who comes up to walk me back.  We walk in silence for a little until Emma walks back to her room, Henry is the first to speak.

"Would you like to come tomorrow with me, I have a feeling we can accomplish this soon" he says looking over at me

"Okay, thanks for helping me" I say looking back at me as my bangs fall in my face

"No problem, Molly" he says smiling at me

"I am sorry, I ripped your heart out, I am truly sorry" I say looking over at him, for once in my life as the Darkone I am actually sorry

"It's okay, I forgive you, it was the Darkone not the real you" he says at the end of the hall

"Thanks" I say as we walk into the hall where my father stood holding a flower in his hand

"Bye Molly, see you tomorrow" Henry says

"Bye Henry" I say smiling before he walks to his room and I walk up to my father

"Hello sweet-heart" he says lifting me up hugging me

"Hi Daddy" I say hugging him back

"So what have you been up to" he say putting me back down

"I was with Henry and Emma all day, Henry is trying to find a way to write the darkness out of me, since he is the author" I say smiling

"Where was Emma" he asks

"She went to her room on the way back, and Henry walked me back, why" I ask

"Just wondering.  We better get going or we are going to miss it" Robin says walking toward the door that leads outside with me along his side

"Where are we going"  I ask

"Firefly hill" he says smiling handing me the daisy in his hand and grabbing a basket that was left by the door before we walk out
