Within a few hours Maleficent's army who were all dragons had surrounded the castle and true to her word both Lily and herself had joined the ranks when Snow White, David and an army of mer people came to the castle, Emma was on the balcony looking out when she saw them and came running down the steps in a panic she headed to the castles rear entrance but before she could open the door two gentle hands rested on her shoulders and she turned to see Henry, Cora and Regina standing there.
"Little one why are you fleeing?" Henry asked the frightened mer princess while he still had her in his gentle grip.
"I've never been able to face my parents when they're angry and right now they are furious they aren't to be taken lightly, the dragons need to be careful."
"Oh sweetie they know that, it's going to be ok."
Suddenly there was a bang as the front doors of the palace were flung open and Snow White and David were inside.
"WHERE'S OUR DAUGHTER?" Shouted Snow White.
Cora, Henry and Regina came into the throne room Emma was looking out from behind Regina who was slightly taller than the blonde.
"You can't have her she is under our protection and if you try to take her anyway you will be stopped." Cora stated calmly.
Snow spotted Emma peering around the side of Regina.
"Emma come here now!"
Emma went to follow her mothers order when Regina grabbed her arm.
"You don't have to do it, you have no loyalties to her."
At Regina's words Emma took the brunettes hand and stood beside the girl she was in love with.
"No mom I won't come I'm not a servant you can order about."
Snow White turned to her soldiers.
"You know what to do."
The soldiers started to attack Cora, Henry and Regina. Emma was quite impressed because for humans they were fighting quite well, a soldier snuck up behind Regina and struck her in the head with the hilt of his sword.
"REGINA!" Emma cried out as she saw her true love go down and ran over to her shielding her with her own body.
There was a sound of crumbling brick as the roof was ripped off the castle by Maleficent, Lily and the army of dragons it was dark outside the moon was high in the night sky putting a protective barrier around Regina Emma stood up and stretched her arms up towards the sky.
"I call upon the power of the moon and sea aid me in protecting the ones that are protecting me give me your power."
Emma was engulfed in blue and white lights as she gained more power Snow and David stepped back as they watched Emma's appearance change yet again her hair reached where the end of her tail would be her dress went from blue like the ocean to blue with gold and white trimming and her eyes went from green to Caribbean blue and the blue crescent moon on her temple glowed brightly.
"You will leave now and don't come back until you learn to accept me for who I am and until you can accept my magic do you understand me mother!"
Snow White nodded her head and went outside to wait for David to follow.
Emma looked at her father who had a look on his face that said he had already done what Emma had told Snow.
"Daddy?"
David opened his arms and Emma ran into them and she inhaled deeply the scent of the ocean that lingered on him.
"Emma honey any time you want to talk just summon me with this shell."
David handed Emma a conch shell.
"Thank you daddy."
David turned to face Cora and Henry.
"Thank you for taking my daughter into your care."
With that he left also.
Emma let the barrier down and went to check on Regina.
"Regina can you hear me my love?"
Regina's eyes opened, she saw Emma and smiled at her.
"My sweet Emma, you protected me."
"And I always will."
Emma looked up at the sky and used her powers to put the roof back on the castle as if it was never removed.
Maleficent and Lily came in.
"Is everyone ok?"
"We're fine thank you Maleficent dear."
Suddenly a plume of smoke appeared and when it cleared there stood the Dark One.
"What are you doing here Rumplestiltskin you know you're not allowed here anymore."
"Now, now dearie that's no way to treat an old friend."
"You're no friend of ours, leave now."
Cora and Henry advanced on Rumplestiltskin.
"I only want to give the mermaid a gift."
"You will do no such thing."
Before anyone could do anything Rumplestiltskin was casting a spell and sent it straight at Emma but it never touched her for she had deflected it sending it back at him, causing the Dark One to disappear.
"Emma is that all from the power you gained or is that from you?"
"It's from me I've always been powerful."
As the years passed Emma grew into an exceptional beauty as did Regina.
Snow had seen her daughter grow up after she realised that not accepting who she was and that she had magic was the worst thing she could think of.
Emma went to visit her parents but along the way a merman kidnapped her he planned on forcing her to marry him so he could become king.
Regina knowing something was wrong signalled Snow White and David.
"Princess Regina why have you called us? We are awaiting Emma's visit."
"That is why I have called you I feel that Emma may be in danger."
"What do you mean?"
"I could feel her she was scared."
Snow summoned Selkie.
"Yes your majesty?"
"Selkie we need you to track down Emma we think she may be in trouble."
"I'm on it you can count on me."
Selkie swam down and picked up Emma's scent she followed it to the merman's hideout after she overheard what he wanted she swam back to Snow White.
"Your majesty the princess has been kidnapped by Tirek he wants her to marry him so he can be king."
"That sea serpent wants marry my daughter I don't think so."
"Let me come your majesty I can help."
"Very well."
Snow handed Regina a necklace that would let her breath underwater.
Soon the two merfolk and the only human were on their way to rescue Emma from the clutches of Tirek, when they reached the hideout they saw Emma tied up and Tirek was constantly back handing her across the face there were cuts covering her face the blood drifting into the water drawing sharks but as soon as they smelt that it was the princesses blood the kept a careful eye on her ready to attack Tirek if he looked like he was going to kill her.
"We are ready to attack your magesties just give the word and we'll get the princess out safely."
"Thank you."
"I will never marry you Tirek you are a tyrant no one like you deserves to be king of my parents kingdom. Besides I'm promised to someone else."
"Who?"
"She's human and a princess."
Tirek drew his dagger out and placed a cut above Emma's breast.
Snow signalled the sharks to get Emma out of there once Emma was out safely the sharks killed Tirek.
"Are you ok sweetheart?"
"I'm fine mom."
Regina healed Emma's wounds and they went back to Regina's castle.
A month later Regina asked Emma to marry her and the mer princess said yes after their wedding Regina asked for her hearts desire and that was to be a mermaid like her beautiful mermaid wife.
Regina and Emma were happy but one day Emma felt like something was missing then suddenly she felt sick and Regina came to Emma's side.
"What is it Emma?"
"I didn't know you could get seasick on land."
The Blue Fairy was called who gave the news that Emma was pregnant the two mer princesses swam to Snow White and David's kingdom to tell them the news.
"Mom? Dad? Regina and I have something to tell you."
"What is it sweetheart?"
"You're going to be grandparents."
"Oh sweetie that's wonderful isn't it Charming?"
"You bet it is. Come here kiddo and give your old man a hug."
Emma swam as fast as she could into her dad and hugged him.
9 months later Emma gave birth to a son who Regina and her decided to call Henry and they lived happy immortal lives thanks to the moon.
The end.
