Chapter 3

Milah bared her teeth at the picture of Emma and then looked Cora in the eyes.

"Deal."

"Good," Cora said smiling at Milah. "Now that we have a deal, let's get started, shall we?"Milah nodded. "The first thing that you need to do is gain Emma's trust. That way, the betrayal will be much more painful."

"And how will I do that?" Milah asked. "Are you going to give me back my body?" Cora shook her head.

"By bonding to her in her dreams. You see," Cora explained walking around Milah, "dreams are a very powerful thing. Powerful enough to extend into reality, such as being able to physically hurt someone even though they're asleep." Milah waved her hand.

"But if I can't have my body back, how will I get back to Killian? How will I be able to revive you?" Cora smirked.

"You'll take Emma's body." She laughed at the disgust on Milah's face. "Don't worry, dear, when you take over Emma's soul, her body will transform into your original one." Milah's eyes lit up and she grinned wildly at Cora.

"What are you waiting for? Get on with it."

"Remember," Cora said to Milah before she entered Emma's dream, "get her to trust you."

Milah waited in the dark, and immediately her back straightened when she heard footsteps approach.

"Hey," the voice called, "What the hell's going on?" Milah mashed her teeth together. She was about to face the woman who stole her pirate. Revenge will be mine, Milah told herself, but she needed Emma to trust her first. Milah turned around to face the same blond haired, green eyed woman that Cora showed her before. Up close, she looked to be at least ten years younger than she was, but there was nothing special about her. Before Milah could say something, Emma said, "You're Milah aren't you?" A quick flash of anger surged through her face.

"Yes," she answered simply. She turned her back to Emma and slumped her shoulders.

"Hey, you okay?" Emma asked her. No, but I will be after you die!

"It's so lonely here. Spending three-hundred years in darkness without anyone to talk to." Milah said instead. She hoped that the message she hinted at got through to Emma.

"Um, if I ever see you again- you know in another dream or something, I'd be happy to talk to you…" She heard Emma say. At least she's not that stupid. Milah turned around and forced herself to grab the younger woman's hands. She saw Emma's lips curve into a smile.

"You would? Thank you!" Suddenly everything started moving.

"I think I'm waking up," Emma told her. About time. Milah instantly letted go of Emma's hands. She rubbed her own on her legs, feeling that they were somehow tainted, by touching her. As everything began to get get brighter, Milah saw Emma shrug and say, "Well...see ya." Then she vanished.

Milah was sucked back into the darkness, where Cora was waiting for her.

"Well?" Cora asked. "How was it, meeting the Swan girl?" Milah growled and flipped her hair back.

"Killian fell for...for that?" Milah sputtered throwing her hands up. "She maybe younger than me, but I exceed her in every way possible! I don't understand it!" She quickly turned to Cora. "I must get back to Killian," she said whispered desperately, "He needs me. I can't and I won't let someone like her take the one thing I love most."

"Patience, Milah dear," Cora soothed. She turned, her dress swishing with her. "All good things to those who wait. And the wait will most certainly be worth it."
