Emma hugged Henry as close as she could. she couldn't believe she almost lost him to that evil Cruella. David and Mary-Margaret looked at their child in horror and in realisation on what she had done.

"you..." Mary-Margaret stammered.

Emma turned to face her mother. Her eyes pierced into hers, reassuring her that she did.

"Emma..." Mary Margaret tried to say, but she buried her face into Davids chest.

"I killed Cruella Deville... ha!" she laughed

Henry David and Mary Margaret turned to eachother. fear coming across their faces. Gold got what he wanted, she was turning dark, and by a matter of time, she would die if she continued.

David reached to cup his hand around Emma's chin. she seemed reluctant to allow him, but did so anyway, leaving her eyes looking straight into her fathers.

"Emma... Cruella... she-"

"Shes dead.. i know... i did kill her after all." Emma interupted in a matter-of-fact voice.

"No. the author... he wrote that she could never kill another soul again"

Emma looked down and flinched out of David's grasp. She looked staright into his eyes.

"No... No!" she Screamed and fell to the floor cradling herself. "Gold's done it hasnt he? hes turned me dark!"

her worried parents looked at her with sympathy. they knew what was happening, but it was weird it was happening to their daughter.

"Emma... I'm-" Mary Margaret started but was interupted by shouts.

"SWAN! SWAN?"

"Killian... He... he can't find out..." Emma stood up and started to panic, pacing up and down the cliff she was on.

"Emma, he has to know." Mary Margeret said apolegetically.

"No. He doesn't." Emma replied as she tuened to her mother in such agression, she couldnt do anymore than just to nod. "He will never find out, and if he does i will... Ugh! stop it Emma! Mom, how do i stop it?" Emma had tears trickling down her face. She was scared for her family and all the people she loves. She turned to EHnry and held his hands.

"Kid... You know whats happening. you have to stay away from me."

"no mom!" Henry cried, sadness curtaning over his child glow.

"YOU MUST!" Emma snapped.

Everyone looked at her. in shock, she had never shouted at HEnry like that before.

"Stay away from me. All of you." Emma concluded and she tuened back to the forest, her eyes still pouring out tears.

As she left Hook was running towards Mary Margaret and David.

"Wheres Swan?" he asked his blue eyes filled with hope.

David just looked back at him, his stern eyes burying into Hooks Hopeful ones.

"She didn't..." Hook stammered. He ran to the end of the cliff, where he saw Cruella, scrawled on the ground in a weird shape. she wasnt breathing and he could swear he saw blood from her head. "no..." he said simply.

"Hook... are you okay?" Mary Margaret asked

"I have to find her. where did she go?"

"back into the forest..."

Without saying another word he ran staright for the forest.

Mary margaret and David hugged Henry close. they knew thst Henry was in a lot of pain. losing his father Neal, otherwise known as Baelfire. seeing his birth mother be like that? he must of been shaking out of his boots. they pulled him closer, never wanting to let go of him in the fear he would jump off the edge and join Cruella.

A mist of fire surrounded the three.

"WHERE IS MY SON YOU ABSOLUTE BITCH?" Regina bellowed from the forest.

"hes with us Regina" David said softly.

the fire went away and Regina appeared running to Henry like her life depended on it.

"i thought you were with Cruella? where is she? what happened?" she eventually questioned as she saw the looks on evertones faces. Mary Margaret simply pointed at the edge of the cliff. Regina looked down.

"Emma did this... Gold has her wrapped around his finger. that scheming little-"

"little what dearie?" said a voice from behind them. Mr gold stood by the nearest tree. david unleashed a gun from his pocket.

"ah ah ah! that wouldnt be advisable dearie, you see, now Emma has a little darkness in her heart, she will soon turn completely dark, ending her life, and causing happy endings for me. and only me." Mr gold said with a sinsister accent.

"Don't you dare touch her you absolute monster." David replied sincerly gun still pointed to the dark ones head.

"you really think that will kill me? im the dark one! you know the only way to kill me is with the dagger, and then you will become the dark one, get all of my power and have your heart turn a little more dark as the days go by as you have killed a living soul."

David knew that this was true, but he kept thge gun firmly pointed at Mr. Golds head. he was furious of what just happened and wanted him to pay for what he did.

"now, i will be off now, you see the author is waiting for me, we seem to have a bit of a deal. good luck with Emma." and with that, he disappeared.

"i do hate that man." regina said

"thats not the point right now, the point is that Emma is out there, her heart is turning dark. she could die..." Mary Margaret started but David looked at her, his eyes wide.

"or Hook..."

everyone looked at eachother in fear and all started to run towards the forest, hoping they could find Hook before he found Emma.
