Chapter 1: Answers.
Answers. She needed answers. She needed to know what had happened. She had a feeling that that purple smoke was more than just the curse breaking. She needed to know what had been. He needed to give her answers. As she held on her son she feared about leaving him but she needed to. She had no one to trust. The only person she had began to trust was turned into wood right in front of her.
"Emma?" Henry asked quietly. The cloud was gone and he was still here. She knelt as his level "You did it! You broke the curse! I knew you could!"
"We have to get out of here" Emma told him as she got his regular clothes from the side of the bed. "Are you okay?" Henry nodded slowly "Good, now we have to go"
And they did. In the midst of madness at the hospital mother and son left. Emma found herself clutching to her father's sword which she didn't remember picking up and her son.
"Emma!" Henry announced excitedly as they reached the street "Your parents! They are awake!" Her parents. No. She couldn't deal with them right now. She needed answers first. To keep Henry safe.
"I know kid" Emma sighed.
"Let's go find them!" Henry said dragging her along "Come on!"
"I can't" Emma told him firmly stopping him from moving "I need to find Gold first"
"Dont you want to meet them?" Henry was quite sad that she didn't think first of her parents. When he had found her, he wanted no more than to be with her, getting to know her. Love her.
"I do" Emma said with a smile "But my main concern is you so, I need to find Gold so I can keep you safe from Regina"
"But you can't trust him!" Henry said "He is worst than her... he is pure evil"
"Not so sure about that" Emma said. Her head was spinning and Henry's stubbornness wasnt helping her.
"Emma!" A familiar voice called out her name. Red. Not Snow but Red. "Henry! You are alright" The former waitress and her grandmother approached them quickly.
"Little Red Riding Hood?" Henry smirked. "Pleasure"
"Cute kid" Red smirked "Reminds me of a certain Prince Charming" Henry almost felt backwards as she compared him to his grandfather "Have you seen them yet?"
"No" Henry said sadly "You?" Granny and Red glanced at each other.
"Sadly No" Granny said "If I knew better they are on their way to find you" Henry smiled widely at Emma. She was just staring at the two women without speaking. They seemed so different. So wise. "Going to find them I suppose?"
"Henry" Emma told her son pulling him away from Granny and Red. "I need you to stay here with them"
"I thought you didn't trust them?" Henry inquired. "We need to find Grandma and Grandpa!"
"Don't call them that" Emma said instantly.
"I am sorry to interrupt" Red told them "You do need to find them... they have waited forever for you..."
"See?" Henry conceded. Emma rolled her eyes.
"I don't need this now" She groaned "My kid trusts you and Mary and David do too so... Henry has to stay with you"
"Excuse me?" Granny asked confused.
"I need to go see someone. Henry can't come with me... I am afraid Regina might take him but I have a feeling she is too afraid to act on anything yet"
"Clearly you don't know her" Granny muttered.
"You are going to see The Dark One" Red assumed. Her face turned into a terrified one. "You can't..."
"Your parents paid a great price for trusting him" Granny said bluntly "He is not to be trusted" They were full of it. Emma was tired of hearing about her parents from someone else.
"I can and I will" She said determined. "Stay here. I won't be long"
"For Snow's sake I will care for Henry" Red told Emma. With such authority that Emma could not see Ruby anymore. She only saw a woman as brave as... a wolf. "But..."
"Thank you" Emma turned to Henry "I love you kid. More than you know" She ruffled his hair and with one last nod from both Red and Granny, left.
"Are you okay?" James asked his wife. She nodded quickly. "What was that?"
"I don't know... but it cant be good" Snow held on to her husband as if he could disappear at any moment. A sudden realization hit her like a bucket of ice "Emma... Henry"
"Our daughter?" James said with a crackly voice "Where is she? what about Henry?
"He..." Snow's eyes filled with tears "He died. Our little grandson died" James could not speak as the simple thought of the bright boy he was now aware was his grandson could be dead "The hospital"
"Are you hungry little one?" Granny asked as they walked down Main Street greeting all they could find and assuring them of what had happened. The curse had been broken.
Henry was about to shake his head but his stomach beat him to it, growling loudly "I.."
"Thought so as much" The woman said "We must find..."
"Red!" Grumpy was the first of the seven to spot the trio. He and his brothers hurried to her side. "What happened?"
"Are you hurt?" Asked Dopey worriedly.
"Where is Snow?" Sleepy asked quickly "Have you seen her?" Henry was grinning so hard that his cheeks hurt. They were just amazing.
"No" Red told them once they had settled down "I only saw Emma"
"Emma?" Doc asked "Then this must be..." He shot Henry a knowing look.
"Prince Henry" Red said winking at the little boy. "Snow's grandson"
"Now... James is going to love that" Grumpy beamed at her "Where is the kid anyway?" Red knew that Grumpy was referring to Emma "Why is her son with you?"
"Emma went after the Dark one" Granny said. Their friend's faces falling "She is foolish of course"
"Or too hard headed" Grumpy pointed out "Great. She turned out to be just like her dad"
"I thought you liked James" Happy asked. Grumpy blushed a bit and winked at Henry.
"So did I" Came a familiar voice from behind them. They all turned around at once. Prince Charming and Snow White beaming at them.
"You found each other!" Henry said breaking into a run and collapsing against Snow "I knew it!"
"Henry" Snow said softly lifting him up in the air "My brave boy it was all thanks to you" There was a huge sense of relief in her voice. She knew she couldn't have dealt with Henry dying. As Snow shared a moment with her grandson the others gathered around. Her seven friends surrounding her.
"Snow!" They all wrapped her into a hug as soon as she placed Henry on the ground.
"Glad to see you haven't lost your Charm" Red said to James affectionately as he hugged her. Once they all reunited with each other. Snow scanned around the faces of the ones she loved. If Henry was here. Where was Emma?
"She said she had something to do" Henry told her. Fear invaded her as she exchanged a glance with her husband "She said she needed answers"
"Regina" Was all Snow could think of. Red waved her head.
"Worse" Her best friend said.
"No..." James gasped "We must find her"
"Can you take care of Henry?" Snow asked her. Both she and the others nodded.
"Be careful" Henry whispered "Please bring her home?" Snow and Charming nodded.
How was it? good? Bad? Next one... Emma finds herself in a complicated situation and her parents are the only ones who can save her...
