A/N: So this is an extra a managed to get to writing between my busy schedule. Hope you like it! (This contains spoilers for season 4b) I saw many articles online that Henry would be getting a love interest, and it would be Lily! Expanding on that, Lily is Maleficent daughter, and if Henry falls in love with her… Well this will probably be, at the most, a 3 shot. Takes place right after 4x16, Best Laid Plans. Hope you enjoy!
Lily's POV
"We're running away from him. We've made it. We're away from him, and he can't find us." I thought to myself. Me and my daughter were escaping from my abusive boyfriend, Shang. We were going to have a new start, and no one here would know our pasts.
"Mom? Are we there yet?" April asked.
"We're almost there. Maybe 20 minutes. Just, try to get some rest or stare out the window. There lots of, bushes to look at?..."
"Alright mommy…"
I went back to thinking to myself. "We got away from him. This new town of Storybrooke will give us the opportunity for a new life."
I looked around and noticed the town sign.
"See April? We're here. You can see the sign. Can you read what is says?"
"It says, welcome to storybook."
"That's really close, but it says welcome to storybrooke. That'll be the town's name from now on, alright?"
"But what about daddy? When are we gonna see him? When is he coming?"
"Well, we're never going to see daddy again, because he is a bad man. We left him."
"Alright."
The taxi dropped us off in front of a place called Granny's. If had a hotel and a diner. I paid the driver and we went inside the diner.
I left the bags near the door and a lady came over to me.
"Hello, I'm Ruby, and I'll be your waitress. Table for 2?"
"Yes-"
Emma's POV
I turned around to look at who entered the diner, thinking it was David, Mary Margaret and Neal, but then-
"Lily?..."
"Emma?..."
We ran up to each other and gave each other a hug.
"I thought I'd never see you again!" We both said at the same time.
"Do you-"
We put both our hands up, and I saw she still had her star tattoo.
"You still have it?"
"Of course. Friends forever." She said.
Henry's POV
When she stepped into the diner, from the moment I saw her, I didn't know what the feeling was. All I thought was that she was the most beautiful person in the world.
Emma pulled her and her daughter over to our table.
"Henry, I'd like you to meet my friend, Lily. And this is her daughter, April."
"So, how to you know each other?"
"She was my first friend, from the foster system."
We ordered and ate. The whole meal I couldn't stop staring at her.
"Henry? Are you ok?" Emma said, snapping me out of my trance.
"Uh yeah."
Maleficent POV
"I feel her presence. She's here." I said.
"What? Who's here?" Gold said.
"My daughter. I can feel her."
"Well I think we have bigger issues that finding your daughter. We have to-"
I grabbed his neck and started choking him for his insolence.
"Look, if you don't let me take this chance to find my daughter, I'm am not using my magic to find the author."
I let go of him and he held his hands on his neck, coughing trying to breathe.
"Alright. We'll go find your daughter. Cruela, you go with her."
I smiled and Cruela let out an exasperated hough.
"Alright. Beats staying here to watch the reformed villain of the year. Let's get going." Cruela said.
We got into Cruela's car. I told her where to turn where I felt the feeling was coming from greatest. We ended up at Granny's Diner.
"Great. She's here." Cruela said slamming the door shut. I got out.
"Stop complaining. Wait out here and I'll get her."
I used my magic to open the door for me and walked inside.
"Maleficent!" Emma took her gun out and aimed it at me. Charming aimed his as well.
"Don't be alarmed. I've just here for my daughter." I said. I looked around the diner for who could possibly be my daughter. Then I saw her, sitting across from the truest believer. I stepped toward her, when Emma put the gun to my head.
"Take one more step and I'll pull the trigger." She said threateningly.
"I'm just here for my daughter. Wouldn't it be unfair if I kept you from Henry. Just let me talk to her."
Emma put a puzzled look on her face. "Alright. But make it quick. I'm watching your every move."
I slid into the booth next to Henry. His eyes widened.
"Hello. Honey, I'm your mother. The person you've been searching for your entire life."
"What? Emma's told me the threat you've put on the town. I don't believe you."
"A bit stubborn are you? No matter."
I poofed myself and my daughter into Regina's vault, where Gold was waiting. She fell to the ground.
"What was that? Where are we!" She said. She started running away when I placed a freezing spell and froze he feet the the ground.
"Stop right there and let me explain. Rumple, could you please show my daughter here that I am her mother? And what is your name sweetie?"
"My name's Lily, but whatever you do, I won't believe you."
"Well you will all in good time dearie take a look at this. This is you."
Rumple took the rattle and used magic to show Lily her as a baby in her foster father's arms.
"That's, my foster father. Are-"
"I told you, I am your mother." I leaned in and kissed her on the forehead. I removed the freezing spell.
"My daughter, April. She's still there with-"
"It's alright. She's right here."
I poofed April to the vault and she came in a cloud of green smoke.
"You have-"
"Yes I do have magic. Now let's catch up. What's happened you over the past years?"
Emma's POV
"Where did they go! We have to find them." I put my gun back on my belt and walked out of the diner. Henry, David, and Mary Margaret followed me.
"Mom! Where are you going!"
"I have to find her. She could be in danger, and April too. Especially with Maleficent holding her."
"Emma-" David started, but I stopped him.
"Look, right now I just don't want to talk to you. Either of you. At least for now. Now let me just handle this. Alone."
I stormed away from them who's jaws were dropped at my sudden behavior.
"Not so fast." Cruela said coming out of her car.
"What are you gonna do about it. You're unarmed." I was so angry that I wasn't thinking clearly. She pulled out a gun and shot me in the shoulder. I fell down.
"Tata! I expect to see you later." Cruela got into her car and drove away.
"Mom!" Henry ran over to me, as did David and Mary Margaret.
"We need to get her to a hospital!" David said. I started to slowly lose consciousness, probably from the blood loss. My vision started to become blurry.
David lifted me into the back of the truck and started to drive me to the hospital. Mary Margaret instructed Henry to put pressure on my wound with a cloth. The last thing I saw before everything went black was Henry's distressed face.
Henry's POV
"Mom! She blacked out!" I shouted to David.
"We're almost there! Just keep on applying pressure!" David said. He turned the corner and there we were at the hospital.
David opened the back and picked up Emma. He took her inside. Me and Mary Margaret followed.
"I need to get help!" David said. came out with a nurse and a rolling bed.
"What happened?" said as David laid Emma on the bed.
"She got shot in the shoulder."
"Well we'll do the best we can. Just wait here." And with that, and several nurses took Emma to the ER.
David wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat down. Mary Margaret said down next to him.
"This is all our fault. We made all the mistakes that we shouldn't have. And now-"
David covered his face with his hands.
"I know David, but we have to have the hope that Emma will be ok."
Regina's POV
I woke up in a cell. I looked around and realized that I was in my vault. Maleficent was talking to a young woman and a child.
"Well looks like you're awake. Now-"
Gold waved a small wand with an orb on the end in a circular motion. I slowly slipped into a trance…
Gold's POV
Regina fainted again for a short second, then woke up. Her eyes were tinted red. I smiled.
"Alright. Regina…" I tried to think of something to test if the hypnosis was working.
"Make a fireball, and throw it at that painting over there."
Regina took a fire ball and threw if at the painting.
"Good…"
