As Emma lets the darkness consume her through the Dark One's Dagger she look at the people she care, and love one last time with the darkness fully consume as a flash of light brighten till there was nothing leaving only the dagger behind. Emma woke up in a colorless room that felt familiar to her.
"Where am I?"
Emma stood up rubbing the back of her head as she look around, and saw The Apprentice.
"It's difficult to explain, but your in purgatory. The room that is your purgatory is the first memory of your last moments before you were sent away."
"Purgatory? You mean I'm?"
The Apprentice nodded sadly before he began to explain.
"The darkness wasn't able to tether to your soul that it killed you instead. However there is a way for you to return to the living."
"But isn't that against the laws of magic?"
"Resurrection yes, but rebirth isn't."
The Apprentice made the wardrobe appear in color.
"Going through this door will begin your second life at a point were you still existed."
"How would I even know it's me or them?"
"Your memories will be hidden in your heart, and erase from your mind. Your appearance will be different no one would recognize you."
"But I can't. I can't lose all of my memories, and not remember them."
"You have to. Your the Savior."
Emma look at the side of the room seeing a familiar person.
"Graham?"
"He's right Emma. You work really hard to restore everyone's happy, and you have to return them once more."
"Neal"
"It's true. You could give them there happy endings when they see you once more."
"Ingrid"
"We saw how you got our daughter your mother regain her happy ending with the one she loves."
"Along with having two grandchildren, and one great-grandson."
"Grandma, grandpa."
"Along with Regina you were able to give my daughter a happy ending."
"I was able to happy seeing Regina find love once more."
"Henry. Daniel."
"There is always good in this world, and you shone the light to the darkness."
"Johanna"
"You also let my brother Killian find his happy ending as well."
"Liam."
"Even if I pass on. I'm happy that Robin & Roland are able to be with someone special."
"Marian."
The people that Emma sees were the spirits of those connected to the people whose happy endings she restore as they return to the afterlife.
"I'll do it."
The apprentice nodded as Emma walk up to the wardrobe, and opens the door as a light began to shine as she went through the wardrobe.

Months went by since that fateful day when Emma disappear leaving behind the dagger. Everyone has been quiet. Snow, David, Regina, Hook took it hard the most. Henry took it hard even worse, and was unable to get his life back together not matter how difficult people try to cheer him up. As he sat at the diner he heard a voice, and look seeing a girl his age with pink highlights on her bangs of the hair, and a poofy hat.
"Do you know where I could find this address? I was put there in the foster system."
"It's a few blocks from here very close to the school."
"Thank you guess i'll see you at school um."
"I'm Henry, and you would be?"
"Trisha or Trish for short."
Trisha smile as she walk away to her foster home as Henry look at her with curiosity.
