Losing You Is The True Curse
I’ll Love You For A Thousand More
Chapter 1: - Losing You Is The True Curse
Zoso stood before an ancient wishing well with ingredients of dark enchantments along with the flask of dark purple magic. The magic within the dark ones’ dagger spoke to him,
“Hurry, Hurry…” the voice within his mind urged as he slowly added the ingredients one by one,
“Now, it must be now. You must enact the curse” the voice said impatiently and Zoso nodded,
“Yes…. But have I come too far?.... The Things I have done in order to reach this moment…” he said almost tiredly and the voice scolded him,
“FOOL!..... You cannot show weakness now. We have come too far! Do you not remember what you once were before I bestowed my power upon you?!” the voice shouted and Zoso nodded weakly as he added the next ingredient before picking up the flask of dark purple magic and looked at it almost angrily,
“a desperate soul” he growled and the voice answered,
“Exactly…. And after all that has happened. Everything we have achieved together, you will finally have a world of your very own were you alone will be the ruler and the rest of the occupents in this stinking land will bow before you” he said convincing and Zoso smirked before nodding but before he could answer the voice within his mind continued,
“But…. You must beware. Just as a curse can easily be created it can also easily be broken” the voice warned,
“The woman….. Belle. We have underestimated her love for the spinner. She is a danger to our plan. Her heart is both pure as her love is strong….. It will be difficult to see that her memories of this world remain below the surface of the false memories she will be given…. She must ‘Never’ remember the events of this world… She and the spinner must be separated” the voice warned urgently and Zoso nodded,
“Fear not master….” He smirked,
“After all….. It was I that split them up in the first place” he said with a smirk before pouring the contents of the flask into the well and a dark purple cloud started to spill out of the side.

Rumple walked over to his wife with a smile and lent in to place a gentle kiss upon her lips when the earth suddenly shook and Bae screamed, running over to his parents and hugging their sides scared, Rumple held his wife and son protectively as Belle held Maria protectively in her arms and she looked at Rumple scared,
“What’s happening?!” she shouted over the rumbling of the earthquake and Rumple held her and Bae before waving his hand causing a protective barrier around them,
“I don’t know but don’t worry we’ll be fine. It will end soon” he reassured her and she nodded as she held Maria in her arms who began to cry.
It was then that Zoso appeared with a smirk,
“Yes you are right Rumplestiltskin It will soon be over” he said almost mockingly and Rumple looked at him confused,
“Zoso?.... What’s happening?!” he asked and Zoso laughed,
“a curse is coming. The dark curse to be presice…. A curse that will send all within this land to another and erase all their memories of their lives here replacing them with false ones” he explained with a smirk and Rumple’s eyes widened,
“What?!.... Who would enact such horror?” he asked shocked as he held his family protectively and Zoso smirked,
“Why me of course” he said simply as he smirked and Rumple eyes widened even more and Zoso chuckled,
“You truly aren’t getting it are you? I planned this! All of it!..... Did you truly think that I gave you ultimate power because pitied you?! It was me that caused you to lose your precious childhood friend in the first place!” he explained and Rumple looked confused,
“I don’t understand…. What do you mean it was you who caused me to lose Belle?” he asked as the earthquake began to settle and Zoso smirked,
“I thought that your mother’s death would cause you to push her away but no…. you clung to her like you were a lost puppy!” he mocked with a smirk,
“It wasn’t difficult…. I knew your mother took her tea precisely at noon after you made your daily visit to Belle. So it was indeed very simple to slip a little ‘sweetner’ into her tea cup whilst she was distracted as she finished off her morning work” he said with a smirk and Rumple’s face grew angry,
“You killed my mother?! It was you that killed her not some mysterious illness” He yelled angrily and went to charge at him but Belle held him back gently with a scared expression as Zoso smirked,
“I had no choice! Be thankful that I allowed her to live for a little while before I allowed the poison to kill her completely. But…. I failed. My attempt to try and make you push Belle away so I needed another distraction….. So I may have given the beautiful Milah a shove in the right direction. Telling her of the hard working spinner who earned a satisfying wage” he said with a smirk and Rumple glared angrily,
“You made me push Belle away!” he shouted angrily and Zoso laughed before waving a mocking, disapproving finger at Rumple and tutted,
“Ah ah ah…. Not quite. All I did was send you the mother of your son. There was no magic or forced influence that made you push her away. That. Was all. You” he said with a smirk and Belle looked up at Rumple as she held Maria,
“Rumple don’t listen to him. That is in the past, I forgot about that a long time ago” she said in a calming tone and Zoso smirked,
“You shall soon forget it entirely my lady. Enjoy the curse” he said before vanishing and Rumple growled after him,
“I swear Zoso When I find you I will make you regret the day you crossed paths with me!” he shouted after him before looking at Belle and the rest of his family sadly,
“No matter what world. No matter what memories…. We ‘Will’ all be together again” he assured firmly as he pressed a kiss to his wife’s lips gently before kissing little Maria’s forehead who whimpered sadly and then he kissed Bae’s forehead and they all hugged each other tightly. The purple clouds started to spill under the door and approached them slowly and Belle looked up at her husband sadly as a tear ran down her cheek,
“I love you Rumple….. You were my last first kiss” she whispered and Rumple pressed a firm kiss to her forehead as he held her in his free arm whilst the other held Bae,
“And you were mine…. And you will remain to be” he assured her before the purple clouds engulfed them completely.
