Fifth Tale: Fourth Wall Event!

[theboywiththebook]

[Henry Mills is currently walking about the village. Sometimes he can be spotted building another snow man or reading on a bench somewhere. He'll make his last stop at Seventh Heaven for a hot chocolate though. He does look rather confused since it seems there's a lot of new people popping around.

Sora will be doing what Sora does. Probably sleeping somewhere. He can be found anywhere around, outside, on a roof, in a building. He's just napping. Who cares where it is right? Someone want to wake up this lazy bum?

Cross is kind of in his own little world right now. He's just drawing in the snow in the middle of the village. They look like blueprints for something. But, what? After he gets bored of that he can be seen hanging upside down again in a tree. This is becoming a thing apparently.]

THE LAZY BUM

[mamaterasu]

[Hey, sleepy bro. You and Ammy have got the right idea right now - screw these people, we just wanna sleep. Ammy just so happens to find herself curled up right next to Sora, equally asleep, and yawns openly before swishing her tail lazily.

Sorry if that slapped you in the face there, kid. Or left a black, inky splotch on your face. It kind of...does that, sometimes.]

THE LAZY BUM

[heartisabattleground]

[ADAJKA What just hit him in the face?! And why does it suddenly feel wet.

Looking around sleepily he looks over to well...there's a dog sleeping beside him.]
Oh, uh hey there. I didn't know I had company.

THE LAZY BUM

[mamaterasu]

[Ammy's one ear swivels to the voice beside her, and she opens one eye tiredly, lifting her head up to reposition it on her paws and stare at Sora with her black eyes. Oh. ...Hello, there. She didn't know anyone else was here with her either, though she swishes her tail lazily as she continues to watch Sora and scoots a bit closer to his side.

Aren't you cold? Gods, sleeping ontop of a roof when it's still winter... Not a bright one, are you? But here, she'll share some of her fluff.]

Re: THE LAZY BUM

[heartisabattleground]

[Sora has slept in the hot sun, he's kind of used to sleeping just about anywhere. Looking to the dog that moves closer, he smiles a bit. Yeah, he was getting kind of cold.]

Thanks.

[He'll go to brush her head lightly.]

Never seen you around here before. When did you get here?

THE LAZY BUM

[mamaterasu]

[Ammy leans her head right into Sora's palm, her eyes squinty as they close when her rubs close to them. Aah...she's been getting pats on the head and over her body from so many people here! It may not be home, but the villagers here are good people. It's easy enough to see even without having fine-tuned senses.

Ammy noses Sora's hand, then blinks slowly at him. She can't answer his question in a way he's understand, but she does absently look up at the sky, towards the sun. What time was it? Had she been sleeping long in this spot? Maybe a few hours...]

SORA BRO

[dreammark]

[Riku had been walking around the village a bit when he spies out his sleeping best friend. He shakes his head and moves to wake up the lazy head.]

Sora. Hey!

[Typical of Sora, always falling asleep somewhere. If Riku's voice doesn't wake him up, have a punch on the shoulder bro.]

RIKU BRO! ...Wait a sec...You're not LUCET RIKU! GASP

[heartisabattleground]

Huh, what? I wasn't sleeping!

[And he'll jerk awake as he looks over.]

Oh, Hey, Riku. What's up?

GASP Indeed. :D

[dreammark]

[Uh-huh.] Right. [Hear that? His snark tone bubbles beneath the surface, but it fades. There are other pressing matters right now.]

[This Riku looks like his dream self and lacks the wings on his back.]

Trying to figure out where we are. Why were you asleep?

[heartisabattleground]

Oh come on!

[But...now that Sora is awake...hey wait a second...Riku didn't look that young.

Standing back up, he'll look to Riku, they're almost the same height, if only Sora just being a bit taller and Riku doesn't have wings either....

the last bit throws him for a loop.]

Riku? You've...been here for awhile. It's Luceti, remember?

Snow White's darling little grandson

[dealsforaprice]

[As Henry walks around the village, he may hear some soft, ominous giggling. Where is it coming from, he may wonder. He may realize that it seems to be moving around him. First it will come from the shadows on his left, then his right, then behind him...

And finally, it will come from just around a corner in front of him. Will he investigate?]

/SHRIEKS

[theboywiththebook]

[Uh oh.

Henry's unsure what that noise is but it doesn't sound good. Looking around it doesn't seem like anyone's nearby.

But, as the laugh gets a bit higher around that corner. Slowly, he approaches said corner and looks.]

Hello?

[dealsforaprice]

[Alas, Henry, there is no one around the corner. However, footsteps will indicate someone is walking up from behind you.

A man wearing a jacket of thick hide (it's dragon leather) over a neat black blouse, tight leather pants, thick buckled boots (he got these from a sorcerer in Agrabah, funny story) and a long scarlet cloak to top it all off. Isn't he fashionable? He also looks suspiciously like Mr. Gold, except with 100% less limp, 100% more flamboyancy and a shimmering skin. Oh, and terrible dental hygiene. When he speaks, it's in an eerie high-pitched voice.]

Well well... Are you looking for someone, dearie?

please have you seen Mr.Gold's teeth? They're awful.

[theboywiththebook]

[Know that feeling when someone who radiates a frightening aura sneaks up behind you? Well, Henry's got that feeling now when he hears those steps. Turning quickly, he stumbles back when he see's the man before him.

Whatever this man looks like, it's kind of scary looking but...the harder he looks he does look a lot like...]

M-Mr.Gold?

guess

[cricketschirping]

[Henry isn't the only one confused. There happens to be one cricket wandering around who is very lost indeed. Of course, this cricket happens to look like a mild-mannered psychologist at the moment, but people are who they are, aren't they?

And Archie is very sure this is neither Storybrooke, Maine nor the Enchanted Forest he once called home. No, this is some place entirely new, which is more than a little concerning for him as he wanders around.]

/SCREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM

[theboywiththebook]

[And Henry is just dropping his bag as he see's said former psychologist. It couldn't be him...could it?]

Archie?

[cricketschirping]

[He knows that voice, and Archie whirls around.]

Henry! [Archie isn't sure what to make of Henry being there too. He immediately heads over to the boy.] Are you alright?

[theboywiththebook]

[Oh don't mind Henry suddenly running at Archie and hugging him. He hasn't seen the man in ages and he's missed one of his friends.]

I'm okay. But, I'm glad to see you again.

You know who.

[selfmadeprincess]

[As Rosemary continued to analyze her new surroundings and determine how this place worked and how it differated from the village she'd left, she almost missed the bench and it's occupant as she passed by. However, she took notice and came to an abrupt stop.]

...Oh. So this is where you went, huh?

oh noooo

[theboywiththebook]

[Henry looks back at the girl. Unsure of who she is.]

Excuse me?

[selfmadeprincess]

[Rosemary raised an eyebrow.]

You. Here. You left Forever After so abruptly that many people had wondered if you'd gone home or not. I suppose not. Unless, of course, this is your home.

[That Henry hasn't the foggiest idea who she is or what she's talking about has yet to be apparent to Rosemary.]

[theboywiththebook]

What are you talking about? I was in Storybrooke and then I was brought here. I don't know any place called Forever after.

o/ Henry~

[herbestchance]

[There was now yet another person wandering around the village with a confused expression. The last she'd checked, Mary Margaret was in her loft in Storybrooke, and now she found herself wandering an unknown little hamlet with no idea how she'd gotten there.

If this was some new curse or byproduct of the last one, she was going to be livid. She'd already ruled out dream by pinching her arms red.

She pulled her cardigan more tightly around her, looking this way and that for anything familiar. And then she saw him, sitting on a bench not far from where she was standing, leading her to jog closer.]

Henry!?

Snooow/Mary~

[theboywiththebook]

[That voice...no...it couldn't be.

He slowly looks up as he hears that voice almost completely awestruck.

When he see's the person who called his name, he freezes. His stomach rises in his chest, filling him with a warm feeling of joy and anxiousness. She's here. His Grandma's here. But...did she remember him? People were pulled from all different times....but maybe this is his grandma.

She had been lost in the Enchanted Forest along with Emma but she's here. And he can't help but take his feeling of happiness over his fear of her not knowing who he really is to her. The words escape his mouth as if to confirm if she's really here.]

Grandma?

[herbestchance]

[She can't help the relieved smile that spreads across her face when he addresses her. Despite her age, she does rather enjoy it when he addresses her as 'grandma'.] Oh, I'm so glad to see you. Are you all right?

[Once within reach, she cups his face lightly in both hands.]

[theboywiththebook]

[Grandma, you're still technically in your 50's. Even when you physically don't age for 28 years.

He grins however, now knowing she knows who he is and...she's here.]

I'm okay, but what about you? You and Emma got lost in the Enchanted Forest and me and Gramps didn't know if you were okay or not.

[Okay, Henry wasn't sure if they were okay.

But, he'll go to move a hand to touch one of her hands that's holding his face.]
