Everyone looked at Tyler in surprise.
”Really?” Evan asked a little intrigued. ”And you're sure he would be able to help us?”
Henry was, as usual, a little more skeptical. ”Ok, even if he is real and can help… One; do you know where to find him and two; Does no one else remember the story about that guy and what he asks for in return?”
"yes and yes , he wants something different every time" she said " he wants what he wants he's the only one who can help" she said
Henry opened his mouth to retort…
”Henry. Shut up.” Lysander said quickly. ”The only thing you're doing is making this worse.”
Evan looked at Tyler. ”How do we find him?”
She went to her bag and pulled out a. Spellbook ripping out a black page putting beside Betty she cut Betty's wrist letting her blood fall on the paper
Evan watched calmly while Henry and Lysander were more nervous.
She cut her wrist putting her blood on the paper " I need vampire blood" she turning to the boys
Evan nodded and held out his wrist to her since Lysander had already given a fair amount to Betty earlier.
She sliced his wrist and the blood on the map started to form into a map
Evan watched the map carefully, trying to recognize anything that might tell him where they needed to go.
She threw a match at it and it turned Into a dagger
Evan jumped back a little since he hadn't expected that part.
Lysander raised a brow watching Tyler as she performed all this.
She held the dagger up above her and suddenly the real-life Rumpelstiltskin known as James appeared in the room
Henry's jaw dropped at the arrival of… He still couldn't believe that he even existed. Thankfully, the kids had been put to bed earlier.
Lysander was likewise in a state of shock but didn't move from his wife's side.
"ah miss starling' James said.
"You know what I want' Tyler said
"The life of this young girl" he said twirling his hand.a small cloud of.smoke.thwn a white ballof which was Betty's soul
Henry frowned slightly at the familiarity between his fiancee and… freaking Rumpelstiltskin but kept quiet.
Lysander watched protectively, a little doubtful that things could be that easy.
"do you want this?" He asked tossing it on the air as the soul was and looked extremely dangerous
“Yes.” Lysander answered politely, worry showing in his eyes at the… man’s(?) carelessness.
Evan took a step forward. ”What do you want for it?” he asked calmly.
'hmmm I want my wife back" he said
”Your… wife?” Henry asked, still a bit stunned.
Lysander bit his tongue and looked at Betty. Join the club.
Evan nodded slowly. ”What happened to her?”
"she's in the dungeon of your palace my beautiful wife Kayla' he said she had been put in the dungeon for killing millions
Evan’s eyes widened slightly at that. He vaguely remembered Kayla and what she had done. ”Sh… She's dangerous.” he said softly.
Henry gave Evan a look. ”And he isn't? No offense.” he added quickly to their… guest.
He looked at the soul and dropped it but caught it last minute
”Please…” Lysander asked, wanting him to stop treating his wife's life so carelessly.
”I’m assuming you know why Kayla is in the dungeon in the first place?” Evan asked him.
"your going to bring her to me or " he twirled his other hand and her heart was in his hand and he gave it a squeeze making her scream while unconscious
Evan winced, feeling the motion as well but he had a higher tolerance for pain. “I just want your assurance that Kayla won't behave that way again.”
"I can't and won't guarantee that" He said
Evan bit his lip. ”Can you at least tell me why she behaved that way in the first place?” he asked, hoping for a way to work things out.
"I don't have to answer anything" He said "now do we have a deal or will Elizabeth die" he asked
If the guy knew anyone's name it was bad the fairyrale said that if he had anyone's name they were in danger.
Lysander held Betty's hand as the impish man said her name.
Evan gave him a glare. ”Look, Rumpelstiltskin, I’m willing to help you here but I need some kind of collateral if we're going to make this deal.” he told him. ”I’m being reasonable. I want to understand what happened with her and you to help my brother's wife, then I can help you.”
"So no deal then" he said
