Emma was at the store to pick up a few things for her dinner with Regina and Henry.

Regina and Emma had been getting along since Emma had helped Regina with back pains when the mayor had slipped in bathroom hitting her back on the side of the tub just as Emma happened to be dropping off some forms.

Suddenly four men came in with guns.

"Everyone get down on the ground now!"

The taller of the four (which Emma took to be the one in charge) shouted while waving his gun, then he spotted a small girl still standing.

"I said everyone on the ground that includes you girl."

The girl was in shock so she just stood there, Emma took a chance and grabbed the girl pulling her down to ground beside her.

The three lackeys were taking anything of value including the money from the register and safe.

The leader went around to each person with a bag.

"Put any jewellery you have in the bag!"

Emma was thankful that she had chosen not to wear her necklace today.

The guy put his gun to Emma's head.

"How about you beautiful?"

"I don't have any jewellery I swear."

Suddenly the guy pistol whipped Emma knocking her down so she was lying on the ground.

"Since you don't have any jewellery I guess I can take it out in trade."

He bent down and yanked Emma up by her arm, he threw her into the shelf behind her then pinned her up against it and smelled her hair.

"You smell so good sheriff I'm going to have fun with you."

He put his hand on the waistband of her pants but as he went to slip his hand in Emma grabbed it and while holding onto his hand she spun under his arm and pulled said arm up behind his back hard.

"Try that again and you'll lose the arm."

One of the other men distracted Emma by firing his gun which allowed the leader to break free and backhand Emma across the face sending her sprawling to the floor where he proceeded to kick her in the back, ribs and he stomped on her right arm breaking it then cold cocked her, instead of falling unconscious it only fuelled Emma's anger and despite her injuries stood up straight but instead of trying to subdue the guy again she tapped into her magic and opened a telepathic connection with the one person she knew could help.
