The rain on that dreaded day could not be worse; it was as if the skies themselves mourned the death of the pirate.

But not even the weather could delay the funeral of Killian Jones and Emma herself made sure of that. She worked on the details as soon as they all returned to Storybrooke and briefly smiled when all the citizens - even those that were wronged by the pirate - came to the cemetery to give the hero a last goodbye.

When everything finished and only Emma remained at the grave, Tinkerbell approached her in an attempt to comfort her.

"For a long time, the only thing he cared about was vengeance" she said "His love for you changed him into a better man, you should be proud Emma"

"I know" Emma answered, still sobbing.

Tinkerbell did not know how to comfort her, for she did not know how to cope with the loss of her friend. She merely pet her in the back then left the cemetery.

At the distance, a worried Charming family (David, Henry and Snow) watched the scene as they were having the same doubts as the green-winged fairy.

"She's lost love again" Snow cried "How can we help her come out of this?"

"Our daughter is strong" David answered "Just give her some time"

"I don't know if time will be enough David, It was true love, the test on the ambrosia confirmed it" Snow replied

"Are we entirely sure Hades did not cut the ambrosia?" David, trying to change the subject, enquired

"When we returned to Storybrooke I recreated Hades' story, grandpa" Henry intervened "and I can tell you it wasn't him"

"I'm still amazed that pen is still working in this world, given the fact that you broke it before all this…thing" David replied

"I believe it's still working because there are still the stories left to tell" Henry answered

"I wish it could tell us if our daughter will ever have the happy ending she deserves" Snow sighed, and after that, the family left.

Emma remained at Hook's grave until the moon rose in the sky, then left to the house they were supposed to share to try take some rest, and also to try figuring out the way to fulfill the promise she made to him of not putting back her armor…..if she could.


This idea came to me right after the latest episode of OUAT "Firebird"

Ok, so this was the 1st chapter (short, I know, the juicy stuff comes next, and will probably be larger episodes); I will do my best to try have this story completed this week (before the next episode ruins my inspiration). Reviews are more than welcome but please don't be too harsh on me, this is my very first fic and my mother tongue is not English, Hope you enjoy!
