The Present

Graham was dead, two weeks he was gone and no one had really seen Frankie leave her house. The only person who knew of her condition was a her father. Blair had only gotten worse since everything had happened, the visions, in fact she was starting to forget who she really was. If she was Francesca Gold or whoever she was in the visions or flashbacks she kept seeing.

"Frankie you really should eat." Mr.Gold brought in a plate of breakfast.

"I'm not hungry." She said.

"You barely ate diner. Please at least take a couple bites."

"Why do I take those pills?" Frankie asked.

"You know why."

"I don't, I take them cause you tell me to, and I've taken them as long as I can remember. I've been the same age for so long, I don't get it." She said turning around.

"I am doing this for your own good." Mr. Gold said.

"Are you even my father, did you take me like Ashleys. I see visions of a man who is fatherly to a girl who looks like me." Frankie spoke.

"This is why you take your meds, you begin to create these fantasies, that are not real. You need to take your meds." Mr. Gold grabbed one of her pills and held it out to her along with a glass of water. Frankie slapped it out of his hand the gas's shattering on her floor, before getting out of her bed on the opposite side of Mr. Gold. "I don't want the stupid pills! They fog my head, I can't think properly with them!"

"Your upset Frankie I-"

"Don't call me that," Frankie said.

"I'll come back later, I have business with Miss. Swan as she is running for Sheriff." Mr. Gold said and then he left closing the door behind him.

. . .

That night Mr. Gold found Frankie at her desk journaling. He knew the truth, about who she was. But he wasn't in need of her just yet. So he made her favorite food that she could not refuse and he ground up on of her little pills and he walked in her room.

"I'm sorry. I know you don't like taking the pills and I was being unreasonable, a peace offering." He set the bowl down in front of her. She smiled at her father and she took a bite. For the first time in 2 weeks she at a proper meal.

The Present

When Frankie woke up the next day, she felt different. That's when she realized Rumple had given her the pills, he snuck them n her dinner. He had already left the house, so it's not like she could go yell at him in the shop. So all she could do was wait, wait for him to come home. She drew a picture trying to refigure the visions she had that she couldn't remember now. It confirmed what Frankie was thing ever since she stopped taking the pills in the first place. Her father was forcing her to forget something she just needed to remember it.

But Mr. Gold didn't come home alone, two people dressed in scrubs were with him.

"So you're sending me away." Frankie spoke.

"Frankie, I'm worried about you, you haven't eaten, you reuse to take your pills, you're unstable and this will be the best thing for you just for a little while. And then you can come home." Mr. Gold told her.

"And if I refuse and run?" Frankie asked.

"We will have to sedate you." One of the doctors said.

So Frankie willingly went with the doctors, she didn't feel like fighting anymore. Honestly she was tired. She took those meds but something still felt wrong with her, maybe they could fix whatever was wrong with her head.

The Past

A man sat at his desk as he read sent to him by his sister and this time he knew it was time. The regret of leaving her there.

Dearest brother,

Blair was sent to the Ogres war, she was only 14, it's strange, you were supposed to be the one to protect her and ye she is suffering more without you here. One of our neighbors has supported us more than you ever have. He became the Dark One and stopped the war. He brought my little angel back to me. But I fear she has changed, she doesn't sleep, she barely eats, only when I watch her. She just stares into space. I worry for her, she is empty, her eyes don't light up anymore, even her two friends have tried but they haven't made progress. She doesn't talk about what happened out there and what she saw, hell she hasn't said a word since she got back, please come see your daughter, before she is lost forever. I beg you Killian.

Your sister, Vanessa.

Killian looked up from the letter and immediately went above deck and told his crew they were turning around and docking. He made a vow to protect her from this moment forward, he could only hope it wasn't to ate when they docked.
