Chapter 1 past

Storybrooke

The dwarfs were at the town line keeping guard when they heard shots being fired. They looked across the town line but didn't get too close just in case one of them went over. They saw a man wearing a navel suit running towards them, and then he collapsed around five foot away from the line. They could see the blood pouring out of him and it reach the town line. Grumpy looked at Doc and said "ring Emma".

Within minuets Emma was at the town line with Charming. When they got out of the car Emma said "its six am, what's so important you couldn't tell me over-". She stopped talking when she saw the body across the line.

They all walked to the town line and Emma crossed. Charming put a hand through his hair and said "is he alive?"

She checked his vitals and said "no".

They all stood in silence for a few moments and Charming wouldn't stop pacing up and down the street. Grumpy was getting annoyed and said "hey do you wanna stop doing that" Charming glared at him and then Grumpy bowed his head and said "you majesty".

Charming looked at Emma and said "Emma what are we going to do? He's not one of us, someone will be looking for him".

Emma nodded and said "I know that. Just let me think "she took a few moments then she said "we report it".

Everyone gave her crazy looks and Grumpy said "are you crazy?"

She looked at all of them and said "just hear me out" Charming nodded to tell her to continue. She sighed and said "I have a kind of friend who works for NCIS. He can come here and fix this mess without bringing any press and he won't tell anyone about the town".

Charming looked into her eyes and said "do you trust him?"

She thought about it for a moment and said "yes. He was there for me when no one else was, I trust him".

Charming nodded and said "call him". She got out her phone and seconds later he answered.

Gibbs was just waking up. He looked to the other side of his bed and saw Jenny sleeping with a smile on her face. He placed a gentle kiss to her lips as she began to stir. Gibbs smiled as he couldn't believe that he got a second chance with her, after Paris he thought that he wouldn't be able to touch her again, to feel her lips on his.

Gibbs began to kiss her neck and although it made her smile she said "Jethro, we have to get ready for work".

He pulled away and said "you wreck everything".

She smirked and said "so after three months of hiding you want to risk it all".

Before he could answer his phone rung. He sighed and then leaned over to the bedside cabinet and picked up the phone. He didn't look at the number he just said "Gibbs".

He could hear someone sigh then a woman said "hey Gibbs its Emma".

"Emma" he was thinking through all the Emma's that he knew.

Before he could think of who it was Emma said "yeah Emma Swan".

The case ran through his head. Emma was twelve and her adoptive parents were killed in a car accident while she was at school. Her father was a petty officer. That was the first time he met her and he told her that she could trust him and if she ever needed him just call. Jenny was his probie at the time and she might remember Emma. He met her again when she was eighteen and she was on trail for possession of stolen goods. She rung him and told him about Neal. Instantly he disliked Neal but he couldn't get Emma out of prison. They were going to give her two years but with some contacts he managed to reduce it to eleven months.

He smiled and said "hey Emma, what's wrong?"

"Gibbs I need your help with something".

He sighed and said "tell me you're not in trouble again".

She laughed under her breath and said "thanks Gibbs. No I'm not in trouble for once were on the same side. Listen I've found a body that's dressed in naval uniform. I thought you might like to take charge of the case".

"Fine. Where is it?"

There were a few moments of silence as she was thinking was this really the right thing to do. She sighed then said "Storybrooke Maine".

He looked at Jenny as she was smiling and he said "we'll be there in a few hours. Keep the crime scene in tact".

"You got it. See you in a few hours Gibbs".

He closed his phone and put it to the side. He got out of bed and began to get dressed then Jenny said "where's the case?"

He smiled and said "Storybrooke Maine".

Jenny laughed and said "Storybrooke...who do you know out there?"

He smirked and said "we know her" she gave him a confused look and he said "do you remember Emma Swan".

She thought for a moment then she said "the twelve year old who lost her parents in a car accident" he nodded to confirm the she said "one of my fist cases with you".

"Why don't you come with us?"

She sighed then said "Jethro you know I can't. If people found out about us there would be-" he interrupted.

"Don't come as the Director; come as a friend to Emma. I'm sure she'll want to see you". Jenny was the only one who could calm Emma down when they had to tell her that her parents were dead. She didn't even like Gibbs at first; it took time.

Gibbs kept on giving her an encouraging look then she gave in and said "fine I'll come".

He gave her a kiss then told her to pack. He grabbed his phone and called Tony, Ziva, McGee and Ducky. He told them all to meet at the office now and he said that they were heading to Storybrooke. Of course they didn't mind and Ziva was already awake but when Gibbs rung Tony he sounded like he only got one hour worth of sleep and that he was not happy that they had to go to Storybrooke.

Storybrooke

Emma turned to look at everyone and said "he on his way" she walked back across the line and said "he'll be here in a few hours".

They all nodded except Grumpy he said "your still crazy. All he has to do is enter this town and someone will tell him".

Charming said "well we best tell the town then". He looked to the dwarfs and said "you guys stay here and watch the body we'll be back before they arrive. Emma, Grumpy lets go tell the town". They got into the town and within a matter of half an hour most of the town were gathered outside the mayor's office.

When everyone was there Snow told Emma that she had sent Henry to school and that she found someone to cover her lessons so that she could help. Emma stepped onto the stage and said "everyone will you quiet down please". Word had got round that there was someone at the town line and that Emma had called in an outsider. The people were not happy. Emma tried to calm them down but nothing was working.

After a few moments Snow whistled and said "everyone calm yourself".

They listened and Emma said thanks to Snow. She turned back to the crowd and said "I know that most of you have heard of what has happened but we must remain calm. The man I have called won't harm any of you".

Someone from the crowd shouted "how do you know?"

She sighed and said "because I trust him and you have a better chance of me hurting you and I'm the savour. When he arrives you all need to act normal. We need to make him believe that this is just an ordinary town with ordinary people. He arrives in a few hours so I suggest we all get back to work".

The people all spread out and got back to work. Emma walked off the stage and Charming said "so what else can we do?"

Emma sighed and said "we make this town seem normal. I'll try and stay with them as much as possible and if I cant you have too".

Snow smiled and said "whatever happens, were with you".

Emma smiled and then said "thanks but for now we have to get back to the town line".

They nodded and they all went back to the town line.

When they got back to the town line Emma told the other dwarfs to get back to the mines and she told them that they had to make this town seem as normal as possible.

Emma, Snow and Charming sat on the edge of the car waiting for three hours then Red came with refreshments and Henry followed her. When Emma saw Henry following Red she said "Henry what are you doing here?"

Henry shrugged his shoulders and said "school was only open for half the day today. I heard you guys were down here so I followed Red". Emma looked at Snow and she had a hand on her head as she forgot.

Henry was smiling then Red said "how did you follow a wolf?" she gave him a confused look.

Henrys smile managed to get bigger and he said "by this" he took off his back pack so everyone could see that it was completely covered with dirt "I used to dirt to mask my smell so I could follow you".

Red smiled as she nodded and said "smart kid".

A second later they could hear a car coming down the road and they all turned to look. They could see a black car coming down the road and behind that was a van that had NCIS on the side.
