Fairytale Bratpack (Rumple/Victor/Jefferson)

["Mad" Hatter/Jefferson March]

Just as promised, once the Jumper set that hat spinning, in a blink both he and the "Doctor' as the gentleman prefered to be called, stood at the border of the Dark Forest.

Jefferson turned to his companion. "Now Doctor"he said, the term still new to his own tongue. "You are The Stranger in my world. It would be best to let me do the talking. For you see, somewhere within, there is a magical gentleman whom could make your wldest wishes come true. But, he is also a tempermental and diffcult to make a deal with unless you know his tricks. Shall we?"

[Victor Frankenstein/ Dr. Whale]

Doctor Frankenstein adjusted himself upon entry to this new plain of existence, his eyes taking in the world around him with critical and analytical precision. Victor brushed off dirt from his lab coat and picked up his medical bag. He opened it again to ensure that the contents remained. Pad and paper for notes and observations, as well as surgical tools, petri dishes for samples, and plenty more for this little....fact-finding mission of his. Frankenstein adjusted his rose-tinted spectacles and looked at his traveling companion with slight recoil, "Magical....there you go using that word again," he said with a sigh as he turned his eyes towards the skies, the trees, the moss covering their roots, and back to the Hatter, "I recognize my status as an 'alien' of sorts to your realm but surely you don't hope to convert me into believing in something as eccentric as magic," he quipped as he stood at the ready to follow Jefferson's lead.

["Mad" Hatter/Jefferson March]

Jefferson gave a laugh then at the doctor's words. " 'Ecentric'? Magic?!" He laughed again. "How do you think we got here? What you are wishing to acomplish IS utterly mad!" However, knowing there would indeed be something in all this for himself, Jefferson lead the way into the Dark Forrest. As he walked, he began to whistle.

As they got deeper into the forrest and closer to their detination, the Portal Jumper began to hum and then to chant. It sounded like...... Rumplestiltskin?

[Victor Frankenstein/ Dr. Whale]

Scowling slightly as he followed Jefferson, Victor scoffed, "I've heard all of the 'mad doctor' criticisms that people can offer. The expertise that I practice can explain anything, including this trans-dimensional travel that you're capable of," Victor countered as he thought of his ultimate goal. His grip tightened around the handle of his bag as he contemplated the frustration of his failed attempts to revive his brother. The doctor shook his head to shake off his doubts as they pressed forward. Science was absolute and he was confident in his abilities to use it to resurrect his fallen brother. "What else can you tell me about your benefactor?" Victor inquired as he was considering the prospect of actually acquiring what he needed.

["Mad" Hatter/Jefferson March]

Jefferson gave a sniff at the Doctor's words. "Benefactor?" he mused. "I don't know if I'd call him that." He thought over ways to discribe the Goldspinner. "He...prefers to live alone. However, he is well off and well-to-do. He managed to make is own and...well. He's a Dealer of sorts. You must go to him knowing what it is you want from him. And he always has some sort of price for his....'wares'."

[Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold]

"A Dealer," came a voice from behind the two men, "I sort of like that idea. Very clever, Jefferson."

["Mad" Hatter/Jefferson March]

Jefferson then turned to the voice. "Thank you" he replied giving a deep, sweeping bow. "I thought you might like that, Goldspinner. I have been traveling as i do and on my latest 'Jump' I met a gentleman...interested in a possible...Deal with you. I know you are always up for such"

[Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold]

The new arrival turned to the stranger next to Jefferson. "Pleased to make your acquaintance," he gave a courtly bow.

[Victor Frankenstein/ Dr. Whale]

Ignoring the odd appearance of the newcomer, Victor gave a curt nod of his head, "Hello," he responded as he placed his bag on the ground for the moment. "I'm told that you have ways of acquiring certain...objects. I'm afraid that in my research I have been unable to complete my work without a certain...catalyst, so to speak," he explained, unwilling to explain himself fully to a total stranger just yet.

[Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold]

"I can do that," he nodded

[Victor Frankenstein/ Dr. Whale]

"This...catalyst you see would be used to recreate life," Victor explained as he sized up the man that stood before him. "I understand there are instances of hearts becoming...enhanced so to speak, in this realm of yours," he explained as his tone grew quieter and his eyes slowly surveyed the area, suddenly becoming paranoid concerning any eavesdroppers. His eyes darted back to the strange man, "In other words I need a human heart....one stronger than any mere person's."

[Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold]

"You intend to revive the dead?"

["Mad" Hatter/Jefferson March]

"Mad, isn't it?" Jefferson spoke up then. "I tried to tell him it was pointless, but he insited so I brought him here to talk to you."

[Victor Frankenstein/ Dr. Whale]

Victor shot a quick, scathing look at Jefferson. His eyes narrowed slightly as he didn't take too kindly to being mocked. The moment passed as Victor regained his composure and cleared his throat, "Yes I do. I'll spare you the details....but somebody dear to me has passed and I intend to revive them."

[Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold]

"that's interesting. How do you plan to do that?"
