User:Walecs/A Pirate I Was Meant To Be

Flashbacks
Many years ago Enchanted Forest: Killian enters the king's palace and tells the king he will no longer work for him since Killian and Liam had been lied to. The king calls his guards to arrest Killian. He tries to fight them with his sword but he's easily defeated. Fortunately, Killian eludes them and manages to escape.

Killian is talking with a pirate of his crew and confides that he is actually afraid since the king has men everywhere and they will eventually catch him, and he is not a good sword-fighter to begin with. The pirate suggests to meet Jacinda the Voodoo Lady because she might help him.

Killian reaches Jacinda's cabin in Leacane Wetlands' swamp and asks for her help. Jacinda says that the sword master owns a magic blade which makes its owner win every fight.

Killian enters the sword master's house at night and steals the magic blade. The Sword Master catches Killian and fights him with another sword while Killian is holding the magic blade. Killian wins the fight and kills the sword master.

Killian returns to Jacinda and shows her the magic blade. Jacinda reveals that the magic was bound to the sword master, and because of this the blade is no longer magic. Killian says the successful endeavour made him feel self-confident and he doesn't need magic to win a sword fight and will instead train himself.

Present, New Orleans
Victoria is making sure that Jacinda won't see Lucy at a ballet recital by using a tactic to hike the prices up so Jacinda can't afford it.

Henry meets up with Rogers and handles him a photo of Emma Swan saying she's been missing. Rogers says he would look up for her but also suggests Henry should pay a visit to Baron Samedi's Mardi Gras shop since, according to him, "mr. Samedi seems to know everything about everyone". Henry enters mr. Samedi's shop and shows him a photo of Emma and asks if he knows anything about her. Samedi answers he has no idea of who she is. Lucy calls Henry and informs him about Jacinda's problems and Henry volunteers at the recital's catering event as a bartender.

Victoria asks Weaver and Rogers to get rid of a problem, being Henry. When Weaver visits Roni's, he doesn't get anywhere with Roni but as she see Weaver leave Roni warns Rogers to be careful about Weaver.

Hours later, Tiana helps Jacinda land a job at the recital's catering event, where she discovers Henry working there. She then hugs Lucy before her performance. Over at Henry's apartment, Rogers and Weaver are looking for anything that could make Henry vulnerable, which leads them to Lucy. As the two leave, Rogers noticed the Swan keychain on the doorknob. The two then come up with an idea to place Victoria's bracelet in Henry's pocket and Weaver wants Rogers to plant it on Henry. However. when Henry emptied his pockets, the only thing that Henry saw was the Swan Necklace. Outside the venue, Weaver stops Rogers from hiding Victoria's bracelet. Rogers tells Weaver that he doesn't want to separate a father from his child, and Weaver commended Rogers for doing the right thing. Rogers then revealed that a long time ago he was shot and a woman who fit Emma's description came to her rescue. He wants to do what is right and figure out what is going on in this neighborhood.

Afterwards, Rogers joined Henry and Roni for drinks, each with one thing in common: to find a way to take down Victoria Belfrey.

At the end of the episode Samedi/Facilier closes his shop and reaches the backside. He lifts up a cloth revealing a swan in a cage, and he tells the swan "Your son seems to be much luckier than you, Emma"
