The Dark Swan
The Dark Swan appears in the center of Hook’s hovel.
In the darkness of it, she sneers at her surroundings.
After waiting only a moment, Hook comes around the corner and startles when he sees her.
“Swan?” he breathes out in surprise. “What the bloody hell are you doing here?" Then, he notices her appearance, "...What happened to you?”
She glares at him as the electricity in the apartment begins to flicker.
“Well, you’ll be happy to learn,” she begins, speaking slow and deep, “That nothing went awry while we were there. You hit your head as we landed; I brought us to Rumplestiltskin’s and managed to convince him to send us home.”
Killian stares back at her, his heart filling with a terrible anxiety.
“It must have been Rumple,” Dark Swan continues, “He wasn’t able to forget our arrival, so perhaps a few things played out differently than they had the first time ‘round.”
“Swan, I can explain…”
“There’s nothing to explain, Captain,” she argues ominously. “I remember everything. I suppose becoming cursed with the Darkness enacts an automatic reset of other curses I had been saddled with.”
Killian gulps and dares not to move as she steps closer to him, “You cursed my memory to keep me from Regina, Killian Jones. You wanted me all to yourself and couldn’t stand the thought of me in the arms of another. You’re the most selfish and sniveling coward I’ve ever known. Well, now I’m going to do what Rumplestiltskin was never able to,” she says with a psychotic grin and plunges her hand into his chest.
Killian screams in pain as she rips his heart from it.
“You will never have my heart,” she says sweetly to him, “But I will certainly have yours.”
She looks upon his anguished face as she squeezes his heart into dust, just to see the life leave his eyes. As it does, she smiles gratefully and casually brushes her hands off on her jeans.
"Well, Mom," she says aloud with a look of wonder on her face, "Looks like your premonition was right."
Now it's time for you to pay for what you did to me and Lily, she thinks to herself and disappears from Hook's old apartment.
