AN: This doesn't belong to me and I am writing this for a good friend of mine PrincyJessie who wanted a swanqueen dark swan story this is for you my good friend.

It is only short chapter and it serves more as an introduction than a chapter.

The group watched as Emma pulled the dark one's curse from the apprentice, it showed how powerful Emma had become. Regina was nearby, after gold she was the next powerful and could jump in if needed seeing as how the imp was knocked out cold on the floor.

Emma pulled the curse out, it moved about quickly before escaping out the door. Emma managed to catch the apprentice before he fell to the floor with a thud, she gently as she could place him on the floor using a jacket that was handed to her as a pillow for his head.

"Where do you think it went?" Snow asked, Emma stood and faced them unsure of what to say. The curse would need a new host and soon.

It seemed in that's second that everyone realized what she did and ran out on to the street with Belle staying behind to make sure both men would be alright.

The group spread out on the road, each looking in other directions to see if they could find the curse but with it being night it was hard to see it at all.

Before anyone could do anything the curse came tumbling down finding its new host in Regina, it wrapped itself around her the sheer energy it possessed threw everyone to the floor, Robin landing in a heap on the floor.

Emma sat up and looked on in horror as the curse twirled itself around the once evil queen who couldn't do anything but let it.

'No I can't let her take on the dark one' Emma thought to herself. Emma picked up the dagger and went towards the woman who she had come to love the mother of her son, her best friend.

"EMMA!" She heard her parents shout she ignored them concentrating on the task at hand.

"Don't!" Regina's voice struggled to get out "there has to be another way" Emma could tell that Regina was fighting it as much as she could but it was hard and a strain on her.

"I can't let you do this!" Emma cried out Regina managed to smirk "you've worked too hard to be good and to find Robin I can't let you give that up."

"Why do you care so much about my happiness?" Regina asked curiously Emma sighed she couldn't explain it now but maybe when Regina has saved her she could, she could tell the other woman how she felt, how she had been feeling since the moment she met her when she brought Henry back to her and she had seen her in her in that grey dress that hugged all her curves perfectly.

"Because you deserve it, even if it's not with me" with that she pushed the dagger into the curse, she cried out as it began to overtake her leaving Regina watching on in horror.

The darkness wrapped around her, as the others watched on unable to do anything to stop it, Robin brought Regina into his arms but she shrugged him off she didn't notice the confused and hurt expression on his face as she did so, she just watched as Emma and the darkness disappear leaving only the dagger in her place.
