Don't look deep inside. It's where my demons hide

his Underworld place hadn't been where he had been expecting to end up when he sacrificed himself for Emma and Henry, the two people he'd loved most. Neal had just wanted to finally be at peace with his life, but, somehow he'd ended up here.Neal was as alone here, as he had been back when he was alive. For some reason this had made him more vulnerable to some of the darker spirits here, but, he'd kept them away from him for the most part.
From what he'd heard about this place, the Underworld, it was a place where people go with unfinished business. When he thought about what it could've been one person came to his mind. His son Henry. Neal had promised he'd see both him and Emma again, but, Neal hadn't been able to keep his promise to Henry yet.
Neal had started to walk around, as a way to avoid the images that Hades was forcing him to watch and re-live. The memories were bad enough the first time, and, now he had to see them all over again.
There wasn't really alot to this place though, so there wasn't many places he could go to escape that, for a little while. Neal didn't recognise most of the souls though. Of course it could've been because most of the people Neal knew and was closest to were all still alive, and, the couple that he knew were he wasn't really interested in seeing anyway.
Soon, Neal reached a different section of the Underworld. It wasn't one he'd seen before, but, it looked alot like the town of Storybrooke. He wasn't sure how that was possible, but, at the same time it was magic, so who knew these days.
Looking around, he wondered how it had gotten so life-like and precise. Neal, seeing this place made him realise just how much he missed the real town. The one where his family was.
Neal was about to turn around, when he saw a face and heard a voice that he thought he'd recognised. Not just from Storybrooke, but, briefly before that too. That was the voice of the Queen of Hearts, or as his papa and others had called her Cora.
Making his way towards where the voice was, Neal just looked at her with his hands in his pockets before he spoke "So I guess, the Underworld is a place for everyone isn't it?"
