He had scene the surprise cross her face, at her words he spoke almost at a human tone "Ow...no.. I do not... expect to see you.. again" He really did not, though he felt his heart tighten he did not change his mind or words, he would not stop her. He did not wish to force her to stay, he knew that perhaps to well he could to cage one such as Belle, though others he was not sure if such a thing would be the same for them, he knew Belle was different & because of it, he was willing to break his deal to keep her & yet do as he said to start to keep her town safe. He never went back on deals, though that did not mean he could not changed them ether when he wanted, after all he said forever he could always been most of his deals to his will to have his way.

"Oh...no.. I do not... expect to see you.. again" He told her and Belle felt a twinge in her chest. "You're letting me go?" She asked now. "But the deal..." Belle did not know how she felt about all of this. On one hand of course she was thrilled to be able to go home to her father. But on the other... she did not want to leave his side. She looked away now. "Alright." She whispered trying to hold back the tears from falling from her eyes. Belle released him now and then walked back to the castle without looking back. He did not want her anymore. He wanted her gone. Belle entered the castle and began to put away the few things that she had left out of place. Then she was ready. She would leave when he gave her the go ahead.

He heard her first words "I am" What else could he say just as with her second his answer was much the same "I changed it" He was beside him self, yet he did not want to show it, as she left his side he said nothing or made no move to stop her, a bit of time passed before he though to return to the castle, where he could face her with out breaking.

Belle was growing more angry.. Her hurt fueled it. Belle was standing in the dinning room when he finally entered.There were still tears in her eyes but a mixture of all her other feelings were there as well. Belle stepped towards him when he had entered. She met his eyes without a problem.
"You are making a huge mistake." She told him. Her voice trembled slightly but her tone was cold. "You are throwing away love." She shook her head now and then the tears started to fall. "You are nothing but a cold and heartless creature." That was all she could take. Belle could not wait any longer or she would be a blubbering mess.
She brushed by him and rushed from the house. She was off the property and a few miles down the road before the sun set. Belle was on foot of course and the trip would be a long one. She froze when she heard rustling in the trees on her left. Belle looked but could not see anything. She shivered in the falling cold that was coming with the darkness. She caught the sight of a low long body between the trunks of the trees. Belle froze.

He was a bit surprised that Belle was so eager to face him, even with the pan she felt or any how showed, well he could say she was one of the few that though to stand up to him, even if he had not even given her reason to fear him. Though he had stopped as she approached, he had felt the coming of the storm, though in ways he just though she would of be already have left, yet she was wanting to speak her mind to him.
He did not miss her words, though he said nothing for the moment, though he was not sure how they got to love, he did not think that was really between them or so he told himself, how ever he did not think he was making the mistake she needed to be free & not caged, her last words stung though he was so use to hearing them & yet form her it did hurt. "What did you expected form a beast?"
He did not stop her as she left, not a word not a move to keep her form going, he waited until he heard the door close before he moved heading for his tower & watching as Belle disappeared, yet even with that he remained there though not sure if he was hopping for something or just coming to terms of what had just happened.

Belle started to move quicker. She was not sure what was watching her from the woods. But Belle thought it might be wolves. Her assumption was proven correct when the song of howls filled the night. Her skin broke out in goosebumps and her eyes grew wide. Belle shivered. She stood there for a moment frozen in place and then Belle began to run.
That was a mistake. The pack took chase. Belle did not scream. She could not spare the wind power as she ran. She could not outrun wolves. They were catching up quickly and now Belle broke off the path and then into the woods. She hoped to be able to climb a tree but that was not destined to go over well.

Rumple watched the day turn to night, yet he did not move perhaps he was a fool in more ways then one to have let her go & second to just not thinking more on his choose, he though she had wanted to see her father more, then say with him deal or no deal.
Time passed, he though to give up & return to spinning to help forget though, he did not move that is until he heard the song of howls filled the night, the sound of wolfs & they sounded on the hunt, of course it could of been for any thing a deer, a rabbit yet, it did not stop him as he moved to leave his castle & in a puff of smoke disappear, this time it felt different something in the air told him so & he was going to find out what was so different.

Belle all but threw herself at a tree. She could hear the animals behind her. She tried to climb but was not strong enough to pull herself up. She managed to get a few feet off the ground when a wolf lunged at her. Belle screamed in pain as the wolves teeth sunk into her one calf. The adrenalin rush allowed her to finally pull her self up higher and then onto a branch. Belle sat there leaning against the trunk and breathing heavily.
She whimpered in pain as she cried now. Her injured leg hung down over the ground below her. Blood dripped to the grass keeping the wolves interest. Her hands clutched at the branch between her thighs as she tried not to fall. Belle had no idea what she was going to do. She could not make it home like this. She could not go back to the castle and if she fell, she would be dead. She was terrified and tired and loosing blood.

Rumple, appeared close to where the wolfs where how ever it was the scream that made his blood run cold, he moved fast approaching where the scream came from his voice cried out her name "Belle!" As he moved to find her, how he knew it was her form no more then a scream he was not sure, he just did.
Of course at his voice it only drew other wolfs attention, though he was not so simple to pick off, he dropped them one by one, his anger flicked at the though of Belle in pain, he moved on approaching closer to Belle preying he would make in there in time to save her.

Belle heard him call her name yet she was afraid to respond. She was in between a rock and a hard space. She was in grave danger and at the same time. She did not want to be weak and a damsel in distress to that man. The man who called himself a beast. Another wolf lept for her and Belle jerked trying to pull her legs away.
Only one would respond. It other leg was motionless like a dead limb. She screamed again as the wolf came inches from her flesh this time. Belle heard wolves attacking and she wondered for a moment before she forced her mind to stop, if he was okay. The pack was thinning as the wolves were leaving. There were only a few left below her snarling at her. Belle felt light headed and thought she might pass out. She tried to stay alert because she knew if she did loose consciousness, she would not live to tell about it.

He did not hear her responded, he had a sicking feeling something that was hard do to him, how ever her scream was a dead give away, he moved in the direction, as he came around a corner he was not prepared to see what was before him, true Belle was alive, though not in the best shape & now the wolfs appeared to be sizing him up, if they attacked as a pack it was not as easy to defend though he could, after all he was the Dark One.
When the wolfs attacked he easily, used his magic to freeze them in place where they could not move, though it was the moment he though it safe he should of been mindful most though his mind was thinking about Belle & her well being.
Another wolf attacked before Rumple was able to stop it, the wolf bit into his arm, though even with this he moved to use magic with his other hand, removing the wolf & sending it away. His arm burned, though with a flick of his hand as he walked closer to Belle, his arm healed. With that he moved closer to Belle, wanting to help her in what ever way he could.

Belle saw him as he stepped into view. She gasped as wolves attacked him but he was quicker. Belle saw the last wolf before he did and she cried out with "No!" She watched as he was bitten and Belle turned her head away. When she heard footsteps, Belle cringed away from the sound and she started to tip over. She yelped and her hands fought to hold onto the bark. It did not help very much.
Belle swung over and upside down. Her good leg was wrapped around the branch but the other hung useless. Belle shook but she managed to hold on. Her eyes closed tightly. She was too high up to get herself down and she would hurt herself when she landed anyways. She was afraid to trust him to help her as well. He didn't care about her. If he did she would not be here.

He had heard her words of no before before he was bit, though it had still happened. As he approached Belle, his heart was in his throat, he moved closer as he spoke "Just hold on Belle, I will get you down" When he was close enough, used his magic to heal her leg though it was one thing he had to be close to one to do, or at least it worked best when he was close to the person. How ever the lose of blood she had, was not so simple to fix, with his magic once more he moved so that he could touch Belle, the best method was to appear on another branch that would hold his weight so that he could get them home, though he now was alert encase there was anything to go wrong. "I got you Belle"

It felt like she was falling into a deep sleep but Belle tried to hold on. She could hear him talking to her and she was vaguely aware when the pain in her leg faded though she did not have the strength to lift it. Belle heard the creak of wood and one eye opened slightly to see him now in the tree with her. "I got you Belle." He told her. Her fingers were slipping from the wood and Belle's arm trembled as she tried to dig her fingers in to grip better. "I'm going to fall." She whispered now. This was not going to work out well.

He heard her words & moved to get closer, so that he could touch her he had use his magic again for this a price he would have to pay & yet he would pay it gladly. He appeared with Belle on the ground in a cloud of smoke, he tried to see if she responded, though he was not sure if she would & even if she did it did not keep him form speaking "I am so sorry Belle" Before he once more, disappeared with her back to his home where he could care for her. Of course with him gone the wolds unfroze ready to return to the hunt.
