Or he might have just walked to where Pan was with nothing but his ability to call his own Shadow, which might not be considered magic. Stabbing himself with a dagger is not performing any kind of magic.

Although I would like to assume he *did* get rid of the bracelet, since I hope he was the one who decided to dissapear in the last moment before the dagger reached his heart, instead of having vaporized.

If Rumple has no magic, how can he call his shadow back? When he confronts Peter he seems to be more Dark One than Rumple. I don't know what to think about his disappearing a moment before the dagger reaches his heart... but I am not entirely convinced that Dark Lord could kill himself.
