Welcome to the second part of my story Your Undoing. If you have not read that yet, this story won't really make sense, so please read that first. This will follow the scenes with Hook in episodes 2x04 through 2x15. I am a stickler for accuracy, so the dialogue is taken directly from the episodes as much as possible. Everything is from Hook's point of view. This chapter is shorter because there was not as much material in this episode. Don't worry, later chapters will be longer.

Disclaimer: Once Upon A Time, related characters, and dialogue belong to the amazing writing talent of Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis, not me. If only...

"The Crocodile"

Hook looked through the spyglass. He knew the little island was home to Cora's victims, the few people that had survived the curse that Regina had placed upon the land. He didn't care about them as much as he did about what Cora wanted to do with them. The plan she had that would eventually reunite him with his True Love.

"Hello Hook," he heard her voice from behind him.

"Hello Cora. You tell me it's something important you needed to show me?" He looked over to see what was so important she made him wait around for hours to hear it. Unfortunately, the bottle she held was less than impressive. "Sparkly dirt, wonderful."

"Just the remains of a magical wardrobe that can travel between worlds."

This actually intrigued Hook. Travel between realms was exactly what he needed to do. "Is it enough to get us where we need to go?"

"Not quite, but it's a start."

Hook was slightly less impressed now. He needed to find a way back to her. One hundred years was too long to wait. "We're almost ready to set sail. What's own port of destination?"

"Storybrooke."

Hook felt a little thrill go up through his spine. He was finally going to get what he wanted. Before Cora could question his reaction, he played off his feelings. "Curious name. Is that where - "

"She is. And so is he."

"Excellent. You'll be able to see your daughter. And I can skin myself a crocodile" And be reunited with her again he thought. He avoided any mention of Emma to Cora, not wanting the older woman to exploit him for it. He knew that if he talked about Emma, then Cora would stop at nothing to use her as well in their little scheme. Hook was only willing to go along as far as it got him to Emma or Storybrooke, whichever came first. He would be reunited with his True Love.
