It's Too Quiet
(5.01 The Dark Swan)

It's too quiet.

The silence envelops Killian's mind as he sways lightly from one foot to the other, eyes searching the blackness swirling in her wake. All the elation of finding her again, the hope of saving her from the darkness together as they'd walked into Camelot hand in hand begins to drain away.

Somewhere deep inside, he berates himself for having dared believe he could save her in the first place. He wants to scream against the silence that follows, destroy everything in the diner where they'd shared happy memories, but he cannot move.

It's too quiet and in the stillness, Killian hears his own heart break.
