Hi everyone!
I just wanted to show one of my ideas of what happen next after all this drama at Granny's. I hope i'll continue this, but i have no idea what will happen.
Also forgive me all my grammar and vocabulary mistakes - if you find anything, i would be very grateful if you could point it to me. Thanks!
„ You're just like your mother. Never thinking of consequences" Regina's voice faltered slightly, however she tried to control her emotions blinking a few times, to get rid of the tears still coming to her eyes. She stood motionless throwing a cold look toward the startled blonde, who had no idea how much harm she caused.
"I didn't know…" Stammered after the moment, not knowing what else she could add.
If she knew that this women she saved is Roland's mother and Robin's beloved, she certainly not put her friend in this situation, breaking her heart by reunion of old lovers.
"Of course you didn't. Well you just better hope the hell you didn't bring anything else back" Snapped the brunette, still not breaking eye contact. She snorted with contempt and then turned on her heel, and headed toward the exit door.
Robin tried to stop her before leaving, but Marion had time to stop him by giving him a hand squeeze to understand that now she definitely need time alone. Man could only stand and watch her with eyes full of sorrow.
Rest people gathered in the Granny's stood rooted in the spot, slowly trying to understand everything that had just happened. They didn't really know what was just about and everyone was whispering to other, trying to figure this out. Mary Margaret and David came to Emma, tried to lift her spirits and said something soothing by saying that it's not her fault and everyone in her place would have done exactly the same thing with saving life of an innocent person. The blonde wasn't going to listen of anything that all was saying. She pulled out of the hugs and hurried to run out of the pub to find, and talk with Regina.
"Regina!" She screamed, trying to catch up the woman.
The brunette, however had no any intention to stop. She speeded her steps and turned into a narrow side street, hoping for loss of the tail.
"Regina." Emma's voice spoke again somewhere behind her, this time slightly weaker and trembling. Finally, she managed to catch her and grab the wrist to force woman to stop herself.
"Swan, I don't want to talk with you, or anyone else. Take care of Hook." Regina croaked, nervously wiping her tears flowing down of cheeks. She avoided Emma's gaze, knowing that she already show too much weakness in a Granny's.
She felt betrayed, tricked by someone close to her, with who she was built a good relations for almost three years. She couldn't believe that pain with she had to dealt long time ago reappeared, compressing her chest. It took her so long to heal her heart after an incident with her mother and Snow White and now again the misery tore apart a wound what needed so much to scar over. What she deserved on such a fate? Why it is always was her to have to suffer and struggle with her weaknesses? Maybe this was her destiny, never find any happiness and true love. Everything had to be just a distant dream, appearing only for a moment, to be crashed like this small ant just wanting to live her life. Maybe it was meant to be.
"Look. I know that you probably hate me now, and only one what you think is that how to destroy me that I had to feel the same thing. But you have to understand my position." The blonde's quiet voice broke the brunette from lethargy, forcing to rise her foggy gaze. When she didn't stop her, or turn over, she continued "Imagine that I saw Marian totally helpless, locked in a dark cell, waiting for execution. When I managed to get out of there I could see her face full of hope and fear in the same time. She looked straight into my eyes and I had to listen that she has a little baby who is just orphaned by her. I couldn't ignore that, I couldn't let an innocent person die. Nobody deserves on such a fate…"
When she paused, looked at the tearful face of the brunette expecting harsh words and insults directed at her. She hoped that Regina cannot be completely carried by emotions and don't go back to old version of herself which she was a few years ago. She must now face her problems and try to solve them in a different way than killing or magic.
"There is a small rule if someone wants to go back in time. If it was on the agenda… "Began after a moment of silence. Her eyes changed a little bit and her face took a cold expression, even though to eyes still received more salty tears. A few second later she hissed "Never change anything, because it can have catastrophic consequences in the future."
The atmosphere between them almost immediately get colder and distance is increased, despite the fact that none of them moved even a step. Both facing each other, standing in the middle of narrow and dark street which only light from nearby lantern was shining from intersection with main road. Emma just opened her mouth to try again to explain the situation, but Regina raised her hand not letting her to say a word.
"No. I don't want to hear about it again how big knight in a shiny armor you are and save vulnerable princess from oppression. I know that it's hard to watch someone's death or not be able to do anything about that. But if you step back in time you have to follow some rules!" Regina's look could now cast a lighting, she was losing control on herself and she was full aware of that. She had enough. "What if this trumpet's death was a gate to your mother freedom? Maybe she had to die so Snow could live and you saved her?! You don't know what was going to happen next, but still you risk your life and more events for some… peasant?"
And here unfortunately brunette was right and Emma fully realized that. She hadn't thought about how big consequences she could suffer and what would happen if she acted differently. She perfectly knew how much effort took her and Killian to retrieve the ring and help Snow because she accidentally broke a stupid twig. She didn't know what to say, so many thoughts scrolled actually in her head that she not be able to catch any single one, to focus on. Sincerely regretted her decisions, however she couldn't torture herself what she could do, but she didn't. It happened and nothing will change it. She wanted to deny to Regina because she and Snow were still in Storybrooke which means that nothing so bad happened. Guess it was just only calm before the actual storm…
"I'm sorry… You know that I'd never intentionally let you suffer. This, what happened was totally spontaneous thing and I know that I made a mistake, but you can't let emotions to control yourself…"
"I can't lose control?! And who the hell are you, to tell me what I can, and what not! You ruined my chance for happiness! You cannot imagine how long I had to wait to find someone who I could trust and fully open! And you still have cheek to tell me about my emotions?!"
Her sudden outburst was so unexpected that Emma almost flinched seeing the fury in big, chocolate eyes of interlocutor. In a fit of anger she hit her open hand against the wall and small sparks of fire flew away from her hand. She was pissed off and this intrusive woman standing in front of her didn't help.
"Maybe it was meant to be… Maybe it wasn't your happiness, maybe it is close and still waiting for you…" The blonde mumbled putting hands into the front pocket of her trousers. She said this so quietly so Regina didn't hear because she knew that she shouldn't add fuel to the fire. She tried to appease her anger but she wasn't really sure if this kind of words will calm her down.
Unfortunately bad luck want it that sentence she is said reached the brunette ears. She bite the bullet again turning to face towards Miss Swan.
"Excuse me?"
„Oh, come on, maybe fairy dust made a mistake, maybe your true happiness is in front of you. You never know what might happen…"
She started to plunged herself. Yes, she was aware of this and yes she immediately began to regret her words. She took a deep breath waiting for reaction from her companion. And then she felt a sharp pain on her cheek. Surprised she looked up touching hit place with her fingertips. Regina was standing upright with pursed lips and eyebrows. She couldn't believe that she just been slapped!
"You didn't have to resort to blows." Started massaging painful spots. She didn't want to get into fight with a dark haired woman which clearly stood on a border. "I said what I thought. You should take my words into consideration.
Not passed another second when Regina swung her hand and pointed at the other cheek who this time again wasn't prepared to avoid the blow. With no intention of another hits she quickly reacted, grabbing Regina's hands to push her into a brick wall. She reached right arm closing her in an iron grip so she couldn't move. Standing now in a less distance than a few inches measuring the angry looks and breathing heavily.
"My dear… You know that there is such a thing as magic?" Regina smirked, waved her hand and a few second later Emma influenced by brunette's magic lifted off the ground to fall with a crash on a sidewalk. "You sometimes forgot, who has here a real power."
The blonde with a difficulty rose up slowly losing her patience.
"I think you're also forgetting about something…" When she stood in front of Regina straightened her arms directing their inner part towards the companion. Frowned, trying to focus as soon as possible to work quick. "I also have magic."
And the time of speaking last words blue beam of energy released from Emma's hand and sailed straight to the brunette throwing her back to hit the wall. After that it changed into the fog and evaporated and the blonde quickly reached to the woman, trapping her hands thus preventing the cast any spell.
"And now what? You're going to kill me?" Mocked, chocking because of the lack of air as Emma was squeezing her throat.
It would be the last thing Emma could do to Regina. She knew that the woman is now hurt and wants to do something which help her to release her anger. She only could try to delay her from this kind of ideas.
She slowed her embrace that brunette could easily breath, but didn't wait much longer she grabbed her collar and moving closer and not for obvious reasons her mouth touched the Regina's red lips. She had no idea what's gotten into her and pushed to do this but only one that she thought about was desire which with every second was growing becoming harder to bear. The air thickened around them and it could almost feel electrifying sparks leaping over their heads.
Dark haired from the beginning was going to escape and turns her head but hungry lips of Emma's was putting too much pressure on her so she couldn't break the kiss. Before she raised her hand to push this damn woman she realize that in fact she had expected entirely different feelings after a blonde. It seemed that dislike and disgust will force her to run away, but instead she didn't know why she could feel a slight tingling sensation in her stomach. She didn't broke the kiss which only forced Emma to take an opportunity and a moment later she could feel her tongue expertly swirling and encouraging common dance. She gently grabbed companion's hair this time completely giving up to a kiss.
Unfortunately their lust couldn't find a happy ending. Terrible cold appeared everywhere on the street surrounding both women by cool gust of wind. They at the beginning not noticing anything else except they not have taken too much on this sudden drop in temperature. Only small icicles invaded between them cutting the air with a whistling forcing both to kickback from each other.
"What the…" Emma didn't manage to finish. Blue cloud of steam wrapped her and soon after, she fell unconscious to the floor.
Regina with fear ran over to the blonde while trying to notice a figure standing near to her bathed in for. And then, after some time creature get closer revealing her face. Blue dress reaching the ground was moving gently reflecting the light. Long bound in a thick braid almost white hair fell gently on the right side of the heaving chest. The stranger slowly proceeded a few steps until she stopped, and on her pale face was appear gentle smile.
"Who are you?! And that you want!" She growled checking Emma while raising a hand which danced little flames.
The woman didn't answer at once silently watching the terrified brunette. When she finally decided to speak from her mouth left a soft voice "I need your help."
