Anything is possible on Once! haha True. All we've seen is her Darkness, which can exist while its owner is alive. We saw that clearly with Rumple. And can we just talk about the fact that this also means Rumple has a Head!Hook like Hook and Emma had a Head!Rumple? That would be nice to see. Nope, I doubt it. Because reasons.

I theorize that Head Rumple went to real Rumple and they came up with this elaborate plan. He could probably see him in that duel. I think they simply tossed the DO's back into the Underworld and Rumple stole their power. But we'll have to see.
