My Love
"Ingrid stop!" Elsa yelled as she watched the icicles get closer to Killian's head, as he struggled to cut himself of the ice. "Hey! Dairy Queen!" yelled Emma as she shot magic at Ingrid, sending her to the ground.
David and Killian are trying to cut him free as the icicles came closer. Emma pushes them out of the way before they could be speared. "You want to fight Emma? Let's fight." said Ingrid, magic at the ready.
Emma got her magic ready, as they began battling orbs of white and ice were flying all over the place. Elsa stood, at the ready just in case Emma needed her. Emma shot Ingrid in the shoulder, throwing her to the ground.
Emma takes a breath and turns around to check on her father and boyfriend. Ingrid gets up and aims at Emma. "Ingrid don't!" yelled Elsa, jumping in front of Emma, her hand at the ready. Ingrid sends Elsa flying and she hits a tree, unconscious.
Emma turns back around and continues her battle with Ingrid. Ingrid overpowers her, and sends her to the ground. Killian runs over and helps her up, blood flowing from a wound on her head.
Ingrid steps up to them. "I only want to help you master your powers." She sends Killian five feet from her, hitting a tree in the process. "Killian!" Emma turns to face Ingrid. She sends pieces of ice at her, Emma acting fast to block them.
Ingrid sends too many the second time and overpowers her, a shard catching her in the chest. Emma goes down. Killian, David and Elsa look in horror. Ingrid smiled at them. "Now let's see how strong the magic of the Savior is." Ingrid vanishes.
Killian and David race over to Emma, the shard disappearing when Killian picks up her upper body. Killian touches her face. "She's freezing." he said as he looked at her face. He looks up at David. "We need to get her home. NOW." said David.
Killian nodded. He took his pirate coat off and wrapped it around her and picked her up. "We also need to address her head wound." said Killian as they headed back to the apt. Killian sat on the sofa, hugging her to him and laying her down in his side.
"I know you aren't a big fan of me mate but- It doesn't matter. What matters right now is keeping Emma warm and comfortable." Killian nods and takes out his bottle of rum. He poured a very little bit on her head wound and dabbed at it with one of cloths.
"Still a bloody waste eh Swan?" he asked with a slight smile, as he looked at her pale form. Elsa frowns as David piles blankets on her small form. "What's the matter Elsa?" he asked as Mary Margaret addressed a wound on her hand.
"This is my fault. If only I hadn't been so careless. I never should have gone out there today. This is my fault, and I'm sorry." Mary Margaret shook her head. "Don't be. No one blames you." she said, putting a hand on her shoulder.
Elsa smiles and nodded. "Thank you." As the day went on Emma's condition hadn't changed, her body hadn't warmed up. "We have to do something. Her body temperature won't go up. She's as cold ice." said Killian.
Mary Margaret tried to get a hold of Regina, but no luck. David called Belle and asked that she and Gold would come and try to help with Emma. Belle and Gold arrived and much to Killian's dislike. Gold performs a spell and finds out the problem.
"She has an ice splinter lodged in her heart." Elsa looks at the group. "This is like the same thing that happened with Anna. I was struggling to control my powers and I struck her. She had ice in her heart. I know how to fix it."
"No you don't." They looked at Gold. "In order for your magic to be undone, an act of true love had to be performed. This ice magic is different. In order for her to overcome this spell, either the Snow Queen dies, or Emma herself has to overcome the spell."
"Are you bloody mad crocodile!? There's no way that Emma can overcome this spell! The Snow Queen is much stronger and experienced." Gold looks at Killian. "Well either Ms. Swan overcomes the spell or the Snow Queen dies, or she dies. It's that simple pirate." Gold said with a smug smile.
Killian goes toward him, ready to hit him, David stopping him. "This isn't going to help Emma right there." Killian nodded, backing off. "Well crocodile, is there at least a spell that can help her? Give her more time?"
Gold shrugs. Killian looked at Mary Margaret and David. "Well can we just kill the ice witch? She has done nothing but cause trouble." said Killian. "Killing anyone, even the Snow Queen is out of the question." said David.
"Besides, she's Elsa's aunt. But letting her get away with nearly killing your daughter is okay!?" Killian yelled. David looked at Killian. "I don't like it more than you. And don't make the mistake that I do not care for my daughter's well being." said David.
"Well while you guys are arguing, you are not helping Ms. Swan. There is no spell that I can think of that can help her at this point." Killian walked over and laid her head on his lap. Emma awoke a few hours later.
Killian and the others tell her what is going on, and what her options are. "Well then I'll fight the spell. I won't let it stop me from my responsibilities. I promised Elsa that I would help her find Anna. And that's what I am going to do."
Killian put an arm around her shoulder. "You should rest." Emma shook her head. "No I will find Anna. Then I will rest." Killian nodded, but her decision worried him. He feared her condition would worsen.
Over the next two weeks they all noticed that Emma was paler than usual and her skin was cold to the touch. She was also tired a lot too. But nothing stopped Emma from her duties. Her phone rings.
"Hello?"
"Emma, it's Belle. I found something in one of my books."
"What do you got?"
"The necklace that Elsa gave Anna is something called the wishing star. It a special stone that allows one wish to be granted."
"Are you sure? We have been looking all over for it! Thank you!"
"Sure."
Emma raced to the beach where Elsa was taking a break. Suddenly a sharp pain stopped Emma in her tracks, her breathing becoming ragged. She dropped to her knees, trying to get her breathing under control. She took deep breaths and the pain became less intense.
She quickly walked to the beach. "Elsa!" She turned. "Emma." Emma sat next to her in the sand. "Belle just learned that the necklace you gave Anna is the wishing star!" Elsa looked at her in shock. "Really?" Emma nodded.
"Anna, I wish you were here. Please return to me." Suddenly there stood Kristoff and Anna. "Anna? Anna!" Anna looked at saw Elsa. "Elsa!" They hugged. Emma smiled as she saw the sisters' reunion.
She felt an arm around her shoulder. She looked at Killian. She smiled at him, and he returned the smile. Elsa walked over. "Emma, Killian, this is my sister Anna and her fiancé Kristoff. Anna, Kristoff this is Emma and Killian, they helped me find you guys."
They all shook hands. "Well isn't beautiful?" they all turned and there was Ingrid. "The two sisters, finally reunited." she said with a fake smile. Elsa and Emma got into a fighting stance. "What do you want ice witch?" asked Emma.
"I'm impressed Emma. You can still move even though you have an ice splinter in your chest. Most fall victim within two or three days. But you have lasted almost three weeks. Impressive. Perhaps the magic of the Savior truly is as strong as they say."
Ingrid smiled and cocked her head. "But I'm sure that you have been having some complications? Stabbing pains in the chest? Ragged breathing?" Elsa and Killian looked over at her.
"So? It hasn't stood in the way of the things I need to do. It won't slow me down. I won't let it." Ingrid smiled. "There will come a time that even you will fall victim to it. And when you do it will freeze your heart."
Emma shot magic at her. "That may be, but until it does, believe me when I say that I will always be there to kick your sorry ass. Now did you come here just to threaten? Or are you going to fight?" Ingrid nodded.
She shot magic that knocked all five of them down. Emma jumped up and shot some of her magic at Ingrid, touching her chest from the pain. "Come on you wanna fight? Let's fight." she said.
Ingrid smiled. "How does it feel Emma? Knowing you were born with magic, and the only one in your family that is gifted? You will soon learn that your family, even your beloved fears you." Emma locked eyes with her. "Enough chit chat."
She shoots magic, feeling winded. Ingrid sends her five feet away. Ingrid shielded herself from ice magic as Elsa gets up. "Stop hurting people! Why are you attacking Emma? Me? My family?"
Ingrid looked at her. "You once told me that you sent Anna away because you were convinced that she would betray me. Was it because of what mother did to you? Shut up. Is it because she treated you differently? Shut up!"
Emma picked up her body and limped over to Killian, leaning on him. "Is that why you sought out Emma and I? Because you wanted our family to shun us like yours shunned you? SHUT UP!"
Ice shards flew everywhere, when they disappeared, Ingrid was gone. Emma took her shield spell down, feeling exhausted. "Emma, are you alright?" asked Elsa, looking at her form. Emma nodded.
She dropped to her knees, Killian catching her before she hit the ground. "I've got you love." he looks at the others. "Let's go." They nodded. David and Mary Margaret panicked when they saw Emma in Killian's arms.
"She's okay. She just used too much magic." they nodded, both sighed in relief. I'm going to take her to her room. Relax mate, I just want to make sure she's okay." he said after he saw David's face.
The others reminisced as Killian stayed upstairs with Emma. About an hour later Emma woke up. "Hey love, how are you feeling?" Emma sighs. "Tired." Killian's smile faded. "Emma, why didn't you tell anyone about the ice splinter?"
Emma sat up. "Because we all have enough to worry about, without adding my drama to the mix. I didn't want to be a burden on anyone." Killian sighed. "You are not a burden on anyone. You mean a lot to everyone, especially me."
Emma smiled as she looked into Killian's crystal blue eyes. "Killian you are all busy with your own lives." Killian shook his head and got off the bed. "When are you going to realize that everyone around you cares about you!? Everyone in your family, all your friends, me! We care about you. Why is it so hard for you to accept!?"
"Because whenever I have let people in, I have been hurt. I know nothing but pain when it comes to letting people in! It has been like that my whole life! I can't deal with getting hurt again!" tears fell down her face.
Killian sat down and took her in his arms, and kissed her head. "No one here will abandon you or hurt you. Your parents love you. The lad loves you. And you are the most important person to me in my life. Emma let me in."
He buried his face in her hair. "Please." he whispered. Emma backed away and kissed him softly. Killian tasting the salt of her tears. "Okay I promise, if it becomes a problem, I will let you know."
Killian nodded and kissed her head. "Can I get you anything? A hot chocolate would be great." Killian got up and looked at her. "I know, with cinnamon." Emma smiled. Killian left for the kitchen.
The pain returns to Emma's chest and she starts to cough. Her coughing is relentless. She feels a warm liquid in her hand. Blood." She quickly washes her hand and wipes her face of the blood.
Killian comes up, holding a steaming cup of hot cocoa. "You okay? I heard you coughing. Fine." Killian nods and hands her the cup. "Well I think I am going to head to my room. David doesn't like me in yours."
Emma giggles and nodded, taking a sip her hot chocolate. "But if you need anything don't hesitate to call me." Emma smiled and nodded. "Goodnight Killian. Goodnight Swan." Killian kissed her cheek.
After Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff headed to their rooms, everyone called it a night. Henry was staying Regina. Emma fell asleep for a few hours. She was awakened by the sharp pains in her chest. Emma gasped awake, trying to breathe. It felt like her lungs were collapsing.
'The damn splinter is getting worse. Now the curse is attacking my lungs.' She sat up, wheezing. She started to cough blood again, the blood a bit darker. Emma just focused on her breathing. She was able to get her breathing under control.
She fell back asleep after the pain dulled. She woke up around 8 to her phone ringing.
"Hello?"
"Emma."
"Killian?"
"We have some information, we found where the Snow Queen is. She took Elsa's sister so now we are at her new hideout."
"Wait 'we'?"
"Yes, I'm with Elsa and Kristoff."
"Where are you?"
"At the ice wall where you and Elsa were trapped. She has made a cave out of it."
"Okay be right there."
She jumped up, got dressed, wrote a note for her parents, and jumped into her bug. She raced to the ice wall and met up with the others. "Where are they? What happened?"
"She appeared at Granny's. She said that Anna was in the way of me joining her. So she took her." said Elsa.
Emma took a step, ignoring the pain in her chest and lungs. "Are you sure that you're up for this love?" Emma looked at Killian. "Yes, I'm tired of this dairy queen hurting people and obsessing over me and Elsa. I'm the savior, and I'm ready to kick her ass. This ends tonight."
'Even if I die in the process, I will make sure this town is safe for those I care about. I won't lose anyone else.'
"Come on Elsa" Elsa nodded. Emma turned to Killian. "Call dad, let him know what's going on." Killian nodded. "Regina told me to give you this." Emma looks down. "It's a candle. Yes, she said to use your magic to activate it." Emma nodded.
They walk in and they see Anna chained to the ground by ice chains. "My sisters turned their back on me because I was different. Why should you be any different? Why should I allow you to keep Elsa from me? Well I can promise you this: You won't live another day. NO!"
Elsa and Emma jump out. "I won't let you hurt her. She is the last family I have left. I just got her back. Don't take her from me again." Ingrid looked between the sisters and the Savior. "If I can't have Emma and Elsa as my new sisters, then I will make you suffer."
Ingrid faces Anna. Emma took off toward Anna. Ingrid throws black shards of ice, Emma jumping in the way of Anna, unable to summon a shield. "Emma NO!" cried Elsa as Emma received another shard to the chest.
David arrives with Regina, and Henry. "Hook, what is going on? Emma NO!" They all look at each other before rushing into the cave. Emma was laying in the middle of the cave, a black ice shard sticking from her chest, laying on her side.
They all stood in shock. Emma picked up herself as she watched Ingrid take aim at her family and Regina. She takes the candle out and uses her powers, she blows and fire comes flying from it, surrounding Ingrid, Iron shackles appear on her wrists. "Take that ice witch."
She drops on all fours, coughing up black blood. Killian runs over as the black ice shard dissapears. He hugs her upper body to him. "You're okay. You'll be okay." said Killian, his voice breaking. Emma looks at her father.
"Dad, I just want to let you know that I don't blame you and mom for anything bad that happened. I understand why you sent me away. I love you and mom so much. I don't regret meeting you guys."
"Regina I never meant to cause you any unhappiness. I didn't bring back Marian to hurt you. I'm so sorry. I wish I could help you find your happy ending." Emma coughed again, and looked at her son.
"Henry, I don't regret you coming to Boston that night. You are my son and I love you. The only regret I have is giving you up. Not being able to watch you grow up. None of the amazing things that have happened to me would have happened if not for you." Henry shook his head.
"No mom, you are going to be okay." Emma touches his cheek with her icy hand. She looked at Killian. "Killian." He shook his head. "No you are not allowed to say goodbye. Because you are not going anywhere. You can fight this."
Emma smiles weakly, coughing blood, it running down her mouth. "Killian I'm glad that I met you. You have helped my family many times over. Although you believe you are just a pirate, you are a good man. Thank you, for everything. Goodbye Killian. I...lo..."Emma's body goes limp.
"Mom? Mom? Mom! Mom! MOM!" Henry yells, shaking her. Regina pulls him away, his tears soaking her shirt, tears falling from her eyes. Henry turns around. "Mom please wake up. Please." he whispers brokenly. Anna turned to Kristoff and Elsa laid her head on her sister's shoulder, the both of them crying.
David gripped his short hair till his knuckles turned white, tears trailing down his face. He took his phone out. "Snow I need you to see if Belle can watch Neal. Please come to the wall. You will see my truck. Please."
He hangs up he looks over at the Snow Queen with hatred. Elsa had chained her to the ground with ice chains. Killian looked at Emma's face in sheer agony and sadness. He brought his forehead to her icy one. Tears mixed with the blood on her face. "Emma, please come back to me. Please I-"
Mary Margaret came running in, her eyes resting on her daughter in Killian's arms. She starts shaking her head. "No, no, no, no! No! No! Not Emma!" David runs over to her and takes her in his arms. Not our Emma David! Not Emma!" Killian kisses Emma's forehead. "I love you Emma."
Killian tucks her head under his chin. "Well this is a depressing sight." They all turned and there stood Gold. Killian stood up. "We asked you for help. Why didn't you?" Gold shrugged. "I told you her condition wasn't to be taken lightly." Killian pushes him into the wall by the throat.
"Killian!" Mary Margaret yelled. "I swear to god crocodile, if I hadn't promised Swan that I wouldn't kill you, trust me you would be dead right now. Your grandson witnessed his mother's death."
"It's tragic, I admit it. That I will not deny. But there are some curses that even The Dark One cannot undo. I am sorry, for Henry's sake." He disappears. Killian turns to Ingrid. "Please tell me that I can kill her now."
"No we cannot kill her. But she killed our daughter, so believe me when I say that she will be punished." Henry looked up from Emma's body to Regina. "Mom isn't there anything that you can do? Don't make me say goodbye to her too. Don't make me bury another parent."
Regina's heart broke for Henry. She may not have always liked Emma, but she was Henry's birth mom. "Henry, there isn't much we can do sweetie. But I will look in my vault. Let's get to my vault. Hook, grab Emma."
They made themselves to Regina's vault David dropped Ingrid at the jail. "We need a spell to preserve Emma's body." Regina looks at Elsa." I need your help." Elsa nodded. "This is a frozen preservation spell." Regina and Elsa encase Emma in sheer ice.
"It won't last for more than four days, max. That doesn't give us much time. I will need help." she looked at Mary Margaret and David. "I want you to see what you can get out of Ingrid. She might know something. Henry I want you to look around Gold's to see if there is anything. There has to be something."
Henry sits down and Elsa sits next to him. "Believe me Henry, if there was a way to help Emma with the wishing star I would use it." Henry nods and looks at her. "Thank you. But we are going to save my mom. I refuse to give up on her. I refuse to bury another parent this year."
"Henry come on, let's get to work. Let's help Emma." said Regina. Henry nodded and got up. Elsa looked after Henry. 'I hope for your sake, that you can save her.'
