Okay...so I've had this idea in my mind for a little while. This is absolutely a Captain Swan fanfiction. My first of the pair so please don't judge too harshly. This is going to be a short continuation story...there might only be three chapters so I'm going to try and finish it quickly. Now this is what I think should happen towards the end of the first part of the season. I don't know how it will go but this is what I think so please review. I love hearing your comments. Dare

Chapter 1: Born of Cold

It was a well-known fact that one should never go into a fight angry. While some would say that anger provided an edge, Emma knew that the fury she currently was feeling would only be a detriment. She had to focus if she was going to beat this Ice Witch. The problem, Emma could not stop think about Killian, or rather how mad she was at him.

She was still having trouble wrapping her head around the truth. Killian work with Gold to gather magic from innocent people. How could he? What was in it for him? Why didn't he tell her? A part of her knew there was more to the story. She was just too angry to find out right now. In any case, she had to put her thoughts of Killian aside if she had any chance of beating the Snow Queen.

"Emma" the beautiful white haired woman beckoned "Nice to see you once more. What brings you here?"

"I'm here to finish this" Emma fiercely stated and before another word could be said light flashed out of Emma's hands, headed straight for the Snow Queen.

Suddenly a sheet of ice appeared reflecting the light. The Snow Queen chuckled at Emma's attempt.

"You truly believe that your magic can defeat me? I have had years to sharpen and perfect my gift. What do you, a talent-less orphan, have that can keep me from victory?" the Snow Queens words were a poison trying to undermine Emma's confidence. And unfortunately for our heroine, it was working. Doubt crept into the corners of her mind. Forcing her to question how the hell was she going to stop her?

You can do this Swan. His velvet voice suddenly came from nowhere. I have yet to see you fail. Obviously, her attempts to keep him out were futile. However; this time the anger and fear that had fueled her earlier was replaced by a sense of calm. She could do this and in that moment she was happy she had someone to remind her of the truth. Even if that someone was a lying devious manipulative scoundrel of a pirate.

"I may not have a good grip on my magic" she replied honestly "but I will beat you Ingrid"

"With what?" Ingrid's voice was serene, not unlike the silence before a massive thunderstorm.

"This" Emma called holding up what looked like gold dust. It seemed to sparkle and glow in the dim light of the North Woods.

You can probably understand why the Snow Queen started laughing.

"And what makes you think this item will defeat me?"

"How about the fact that it holds the same magic that had trapped you and Elsa in that urn…with a little Mr. Gold embellishments?"

"Whatever do you mean?"

"He found a way to make the effects of this dust permanent. So if even just a tiny bit of this dust was to touch you, your powers would be gone forever"

Ingrid was not one to be taken by surprise. As a rule she was always one step ahead of the curve. This piece of information; however, was not something she had prepared for.

"You would really use that dust to get rid of my magic?" Emma thought she could almost hear sadness in Ingrid's voice but she quickly dismissed the idea.

"I don't want to but if you don't meet my demands I will"

"Which are?"

"First" Emma began suddenly wishing she had the power of persuasion and wasn't just a human lie detector "You release Anna from whatever prison your holding her in. Second you find a way to reverse the freezing curse on Marian. Lastly, you leave this town and forget that Elsa and I ever existed…just like you did to us"

"Let me think about it" Ingrid's voice was playfully malicious toying with Emma's mind "No. I think I like your first option better!"

With a frosty beam blasted towards Emma that she successfully dodged. She had to get closer to the Snow Queen if she wanted to win. Racing towards her Emma lightly tapped the bottle of golden dust into her glove covered hand and threw it straight towards the Snow Queen. Just before the dust began to settle another cold blast escaped Ingrid's hands headed straight towards Emma's heart. In the brief second Emma thought of nothing but mind numbing cold that seemed to consume her and of course her Killian.
