Else, completely out of breath, finally reached the lagoon. Her counterpart knew every defense move she would throw at her, so it was a losing battle... and she hardly could take on a fully armed pirate without a weapon, so switching dancing partners with Hook seemed out of the question as well.
She picked up some decent sized rocks and chucked them into the lagoon. "Come, you dark creatures!" She spun around to see MirrorElse slowly stalking towards her, knowing smile on her face.
"What are YOU smiling at, imposter?" Else barked.
"Oh, that I happened to procure THIS, whilst YOU are still defenseless." MirrorElse replied, holding up Hook's attachment. The imposter glanced at the lagoon behind the true queen and laughed lightly. "Did you think you were going to get me in THERE... so the little devils could get at me?"
"... that was the plan, yes." Else admitted, a little ashamed that she thought she could seriously fool herself.
"Hmmm... good plan... but how about we make an amendment to it, shall we?" MirrorElse came at her. "YOU'LL be the one doing the drowning... and IN PIECES!"
Before she knew it Else was on her back, dangerously close to the water's edge on a ledge, with the imposter on top, trying to drive the sharp hook into a brown eye. Else had no IDEA she could be this disagreeable...

That wench stole his.... It as so incredibly humiliating. Hook struggled to get his sword as MirrorHook closed in. The duplicate snickered," And where's your girl now hmm? It seems you've lost a second woman because you couldn't protect her no better than yourself"
That was it, Hook growled and slashed against the others arm enough for him to be free. The other Hook fell to the ground and couldn't recover fast enough to avoid the next and final swing.
Now he had to find Else..... He followed in where he saw the both of them disappear

Else could hear the water gently swish as the fishy fiends came to the surface to see who dared to disturb them.
"Looks like our little friends are here." Mirror Else grunted.
One of the mermaids huffed. "And what is this? TWO of you?" she said with disdain.
"We... had a little... spout...." Else choked out. The last time she encountered the devils, it was only after she breached a certain subject matter that they turned murderous... a topic she was about to breach again. "...over...Peter Pan..."
Some over the mermaids sighed lovingly or giggled while their tails slapped the water's surface playfully. Gods, they were such imbeciles.
"She...." Else coughed, referring to the MirrorElse atop her. "... HATES Peter Pan..."
"YOU DO TOO!" The imposter said... realizing too late Else's plan.
"Do not!" Else had to swallow her pride. "Peter Pan... is the GREATEST. I wish... I had TEN just like him!!!!"
There were some angry screeches before slender scaled arms seized MirrorElse arms and pulled her over. Else barely had enough time to grab hold of the other's arm and hold it above the water until she could procure the hook out of the dead-woman's hand. Once it was free, she watched as the sea maidens dragged the wretched reflection down to the depths. She quickly backed away from the ledge, in case they would come back for seconds.
The queen got up, finally realizing just HOW exhausted she was, and turned to go help Hook. She saw the pirate standing a few yards away. She saw that he was missing a hook on his left arm. She let a breath out and started walking towards him.

He stopped when he saw Else- or like-Else- and froze. She had the his Hook in her hands, he moved towards her cautiously," If... I could have that back...."
He figured if she didn't try to kill him he was in the clear, otherwise he did have a sword in his hand....

Else saw the hesitation on the pirate's face, sword ready. She stopped short, but then raised an eyebrow. She proceeded towards him and held the hook up with her left hand, pressing it to his chest as she walked by him.
She went over to the enchantress on the ground and flopped down beside her. She collapsed onto her back and asked: "How do you suggest we get YOUR mirror out of there?" she said, willing to take a break from being the one with the 'plan' all the time. Let someone else take the reigns...

Celeste hardly even noticed when else came up to her till she spoke, something deep in her felt relived that the two had managed to stop their doubles. “Get it you? Go behind t a suppose… just cant look at the reflection, it work up to 4 times a day till the word is said,” she told else serenely. They might have thought they were out of harms way but like the saying goes… out of the frying pan and into the fire… a mossy tree vine come unhinged from it place and it swung and hit the mirror, not enough to brake it by far but enough to make it tip over on it side and shine a light from its reflection into Celeste’s eyes, she shielded her eyes from the light but she failed to stop herself from looking into the mirror. “… What was I doing again…” she said, her eyes drooping, if she had her head working she would of said OH CRAP! Instead A moment later blackness drifted out of the mirror like smoke and into the water and air, numerous voices began to be heard from it, whispers but non of it could be understood, the darkness seeped out of the mirror and it looked like it was never-ending, Celeste just looked at it, with a blank face, she didn’t know what to feel, only emotion she was allowed to feel was peacefulness but she could no longer feel that… “Get away from the water….. Now” she said simple and it was the only warning they were going to get, se herself was slowly backing away.

Else didn't have to be told twice. She quickly got to her feet and backed away with the witch.

Yes, that was most definitely the 'real' Else, he smirked and walked behind her.
Just when he thought he was going to catch a break, now there were two Celeste's. He looked at Else and stood by her.

The Celeste’s double did look like her but unlike the others she was much more… evil looking, her skin was white and had black veins covering her hole body, her hair was just as long and black as the real Celeste but was strait, her eyes were all black but with red irises, black goopy substance was oozing out of every open era… and it sizzled one it landed onto the water, her clothing was ripped an tattered, she was very much something that had walked out of a nightmare… the darkness seem to be coming from her and anything it touched darkened and disfigured it into something frightening… Celeste looked at the horrid version of herself that was in the water and it looked hungrily back at her, the disfiguring darkness creepped pass to muddy water and started to words them on the land and this is when the horrible women started to move towards them to, with a wide sharp toothy demonic smile on her face, that was much to wide for a normal person to have, the black substance dripped from her sharp teeth as she out stretched her long slender sharp fingers towards them, and this is when Celeste felt her own arm start to burn again… the darkness was starting to get to her, taking away the peaceful feeling he had just a moment ago, she now felt horror at what she was seeing and she panicked. “Come, let the darkness feast upon you and use your body to bring this existence into chaos” her voice was not her own it didn’t seem to have a recognizable gender. The disembodied whispers never quit but they started to be understood, they were many…. And were male, female and children… and were saying many things, like… “Help me…” “Save me…” “You will die…” “Be swallowed into the darkness…” “must pay for your sins…” “how can you do this…” “why did you do this” “I’m cold…” “mommy….” And so on…. There was constant crying and screaming and yelling in pain, it was like the voices were that of the dead, those forever in angst. Celeste did not give a second thought, she was not going to stay there and hope that she would some how find the right trigger word, not when she had…. IT to deal with… she turned around and bolted like a bat out of hell, more true to the word then realized at the time. “RUN OR DIE!” she screamed to the other two, she didn’t even look back to see if they were smart enough to fallow, but she did hear the malicious, demonic cackle from behind her.

Else was running for her life from the pure evil wafting after all three of them. She saw Hook keeping up with the two ladies. Thank the gods that he was not too drowsy to run like hell now. "Not to appear impatient, Celeste," Else shouted over at the witch. "... but now would be a BRILLIANT time to remember that magical word to SHUT THE MIRROR'S SPELL DOWN!" She lept over a rock. After this little Neverland adventure, the queen was going to sleep for a month straight. "Does it have something to do with mirrors??? Refelection? Emulate? Echo? Am I even CLOSE? "

The only good thing about this was that this darkness was over lapping the peaceful feeling, …well if you can count that was good…. The point was she could think better now! “What the hell do you think I have been trying to do for the last 30 or so minuets!? I would like to see YOU try and remember a word you only heard ONCE and heard it FOUR years ago!” she yelled back in annoyance, the trees and plant life that was deforming started to try and grab hold of the three that was running for their lives, Celeste ducked under a swinging branch and then jumped over vines that was trying to trip her and then just kept running. “Maybe! …No!.... I don’t god damn know! Just keep running!” she yelled in a panic, why was it so hard to remember. The darkness had passed over them, and everything the could see now was just covered in it, and everything wanted to rip them to pieces, eyes and other noises begin to be heard, monsters noises, mingled with the voices.

"WHO KEEPS A DANGEROUS MIRROR LIKE THIS IN THEIR BAG WITHOUT SEARING THE PASSWORD INTO THEIR BRAIN? " Else shot back, feeling on the edge of hysterical. Her foot caught on a tree root and she tripped. A curse unworthy of a Queen's lips slipped out as she went down, but she looked up to see that the horrifying darkness had caught up the three, encompassing them all. The branch that had tripped her now wrapped itself around her leg, twisting painfully tight.

"Else!" Hook stopped when he saw her fall, he took his sword and hacked at the branch that had wrapped itself around The Queens ankle, but another branch quickly wrapped around his wrist and pulled him to the ground.

“ ME I GUESS! “ she yelled back to Else. She quickly stopped and ran back to else and Hook who were being attacked by branches, Cally took hold of her bladed whip and swung at the branches that were pulling the two down and cut them cleanly, then a draconic shape leaped out of no where and tackled into Celeste causing her to those grip on her whip and it flew out of her hand just as Celeste was flown backwards into a large disfigured tree. The beast slashed its razor-tipped clawed wings at her, the creature had a frill on its forehead and it extended down it back, it was a dirty green, it was about 6 feet tall at the shoulder and in length it was about 20 feet. “A GREENSPAWN RAZORFIEND!? But they don’t exist he- AHHHHHHHH!” she didn’t have the chance to finish, the razorfiend bit into her shoulder and if that wasn’t enough the acidic breath added to the horrendous pain.

Things were looking dire indeed: Hook was busy with some murderous branches, Celeste was being attacked by a.... razorfiend?.... but all Else could feel... was EXTREME ANNOYANCE. She had been able to get herself out of dire situations before... alone... but this misadventure was throwing hurtle after hurtle their way.
She dodged another branch and darted for the bladed whip that had been ripped out of Celeste's hands. She whipped it a few times experimentally and, once she had the hang of it, she did her best to get at that wretched Razorfiend!
"I am so SICK of being at the constant mercy of MAGIC USERS!" she muttered violently to herself, thinking that everyone was too preoccupied to pay her any mind. After she had fended off the Razorfiend, she assisted Hook with the branches and roots. "Cannibal sorcerers, RUMPELSTILTSKIN, ogres, dishonest portal jumpers, INCOMPETENT WITCHES... I HAVE HAD JUST ABOUT ENOUGH!"
She whipped the blade to take out another dark creature that she didn't have a label for. "CELESTE... TIME TO REMEMBER THE MAGIC WORD... NOW... OR SO HELP ME!!!!" She took out a creeping branch.
