I really hope he stay alive. Or at least, he don't die with a new plot thing appearing out of nowhere. I think that if they have to kill Gold, it have to be at the last season. He is a very important character, also very popular. A lot a fans will certainly drop the show if he deseappear...

However, they can kill him with a very good way. Like I said, all his plot revolves around the dagger. That's why I think that killing him with an other thing will be bad, all the dagger story would be pretty pointless. But if he dies too soon, he will die as a villain. And it will be also bad, because it will make him broke his promise to Bealfire. Or we all know that Gold always keep his promises, as much as he never break a deal.

So, if he die, I hope he will have the time to redeem himself. But who would kill him with the dagger ? I think the best candidate... Is Belle. So she can become the next Dark One, having the curse of the Beast like Charming had the one of Snow White.

Rumplestitlskin could still appear, like a dark persona of Belle, in her head, like hallucinations. We had a taste with the mirror of the Snow Queen, and it was awesome. Also, Belle could become a very important character, something she don't really is, except at some too rare and too short times.

This is, in my opinion, the best way to kill Gold, even before a final season. Like I said, not with a new element appearing out of nowhere. Damn, I hate when that happen.

Also, I really doubt that Gold will die this season. Not only because he didn't fulfull his promise to Bealfire, but also because everytime a character will die and we think it will be someone, it isn't him. Like with Hook recently, or already Gold in season 3, who was replaced by Bealfire.

However, no matter how et when he die, it will create an ocean of tears. Particulary if Belle kills him. Damn, that feels.
