"Emma! You don't even know where you're going!" Snow calls out but she just shakes her head.

"Doesn't matter. I have to find him. I'll track them down in hell if I have to." She spits out. We come around the corner of a building and there we can see Greg and Tamara leading Henry to the edge of the water. Greg takes something and throws it in the water. My eyes widen in panic.

"The last bean." Regina says and I can see the familiar green swirl of a portal forming in the water.

"They're going to take him through that portal! Hurry!" Me and the others break into a sprint.

"Henry!" We all call out and the boy turns to look over his shoulder at us, eyes begging for help. Before we can reach him, they all jump into the portal. When we're finally within jumping range of the portal, it closes behind them. I feel my heart drop. Henry's gone.

"No! We have to follow them! There has to be a way!" Emma cries out as her father holds her back.

"It's impossible! Hook stole the last bean." Regina exclaims tearfully.

"And we don't even know what world they took him too." I add gravely. I can only hope he was taken somewhere without ogres and dragons.

"I don't care!" Emma continues to fight against David's hold.

"Without a bean, there's no way to follow." I tell her sympathetically.

"There has to be. We can't let them just take Henry!" She shouts desperately and then another voice chimes in from behind us.

"They've taken Henry?" I turn to see Gold and my heart nearly jumps out of my chest at the sight of my best friend.

"Alice?" Lacey cries out in relief. I run over to her and embrace her tightly. I hold back a cry of my own. "I was told you were dead." She sobs into my shoulder. I pull back slightly to look at her.

"I was." I tell her with a tearful chuckle. "I'm glad to see you out of the hospital, Lacey."

"It's actually Belle again." She tells me with an excited grin. My eyes widen and I look over to Gold in disbelief.

"How-" I start but Emma's voice breaks me out of the moment.

"Can we focus on my son?" She snaps and I wince.

"Sorry." I say before turning my attention to Gold. If anyone can help find Henry, it's him. "Gold, there must be something you can do."

"There's no way." He says apologetically with a hint of exasperation. "I spent a lifetime trying to cross worlds to find my son. There's no way in this world without a portal."

"So that's it? He's gone forever?" Regina asks. Gold's silence is her answer. She looks down, devastated. "I refuse to believe that." I try to rack my brain for a solution but all of it leads to one answer. We need a magic bean.

"Maybe now that magic is back in Storybrooke, we can find a way to fix Jefferson's hat." I offer half-heartedly. It's worth a try but it's unlikely to actually work. Jefferson's hat was destroyed. Belle pushes past us and looks out into the distance with a confused look on her face.

"What is that?" I turn around to see what she's talking about and freeze at the sight. A ship. But not just any ship.

"Hook?" I whisper.

"Hook?" I whisper
