WARNING: This chapter is very dark but has some comedic timing in it as well but it's mostly very dark. With mentions off kidnapping, torture (electrocution), violence/abuse so if you're sensitive or might be a trigger for you don't read. But if your reading this fic with my previous warnings then you probably knew it was gonna get darker than previous chapters.

Weeks passed and Emma's nightmares became less frequent something that was positive both to Emma and Regina.

Emma finally got some well deserved rest and while Regina had been tense the first couple of nights when Emma hadn't had any nightmares she herself finally slept through the night.

But tonight, everything changed.

Regina had stayed up reading a book, which she always did nowadays, waiting for Emma to fall asleep before she would close her eyes as well.

When she realized that the blonde had fallen asleep she put the book down on the nightstand and turned of the light. She placed a kiss on Emma's forehead before snuggling into her body and she could feel the other one relax more at the contact.

Hours passed and Regina and Emma had moved from their embrace and were laying on different ends of the queen size mattress.

Regina woke up to the sound of a blood hurling scream. Regina didn't have time to react until she got knocked out.

When Regina came to she was met with an empty bedroom. The panic spread on Regina's face as she realized what had happened.

Hook had kidnapped Emma right in front of her and she hadn't been able to keep Emma safe which she had promised she would. Regina felt horrible, the one promise she had made to Emma had been broken. But also because she had no idea where he had taken her and if she was hurt, oh my god, what if he hurt her.

Regina didn't even change before she poofed herself over to the Charming's.

The brunette banged on the door while she shouted at Snow White to open up.

Snow opened the door and rubbed her eyes, a sleepy David following her.

"Regina?" The younger woman blinked a couple of times to take in the sight of the brunette in her night gown which was way to revealing, Regina taking in the staring of her body looked down and blushed.

"I was in a rush to get here." It wasn't the first time Regina had used that line. She had used it once before after spending the night with Robin and had rushed to get to see Henry.

Snow White giggled.

"I'm serious Snow this is urgent…"

"What is it?" That's when Snow White realized that Regina was alone.

"Where is Emma?"

Regina sighed and Snow let her in through the door, when Regina had reached the couch the tears started streaming down her face.

"Hey hey what's wrong? Where is Emma?"

"I messed up, I messed up real bad…" The older woman let out between sobs.

"Why? What happened?" Snow put her arm around Regina.

"I promised her I would keep her safe and I broke that." It had been dark but after David had turned on the lamp Snow notice the big bruise forming on Regina's face and a tiny scratch on her cheek that seemed to have been formed by a ring.

"Regina, you're bleeding."

Regina rubbed her arm over her face and Snow was right, she was bleeding.

She was furious now.

"He took her." She breathed.

"Who?" Right after asking Snow herself figured it out and now she was furious too.

David was still dumbfounded and to be honest it was kind of cute.

"Wait who took my precious girl?" He asked rubbing the back of his head.

"Hook." Both woman answered.

"Oh….WAIT HE HAS MY DAUGHTER?"

"Yes. I'm sorry that I couldn't protect her." Regina sniffled.

"Oh honey no, you were knocked out, we understand that you couldn't protect her when you were knocked out. We don't blame you." Snow assured while hugging Regina tight, who let out another sob.

"Hey come on." Snow stood up.

"Where we going?" Regina wiped her tears.

"We are going to save our Emma." She stated.

Regina grabbed Snow's hand and the two of them started walking towards the door when they were interrupted by a cough.

They both turned around in sync and answered.

"What?"

"Are you two really going out dressed like that?" David couldn't help but laugh.

The two women looked at each other and smiled.

"Well of course not." Regina answered simply before she waved her hand and both her and Snow were now fully dressed.

"Hmm." Was the only thing coming out of David's mouth. Snow kissed him on the cheek and smiled.

"If you get Neal up and dressed and come meet us on main street?" David nodded and the two headed out in the breezy night air of Storybrooke.

While walking towards main street the two sent out a message to the inhabitants of Storybrooke to come meet them on main street and they were surprised that most of them showed up considering it was nearing 2:30am.

Regina had never been fidgety while giving speeches to the town of Storybrooke before but now she really was. She relaxed a little bit when Snow grabbed her hand and squeezed it.

"Uh, Hi citizens of Storybrooke. I'm sorry to call you all in this late at night but we have an emergency."

Chatter started going around the citizens but it stopped in seconds when Grumpy noticed the bruise and scratch on Regina's face and shouted at them to be quiet.

"Emma has been kidnapped by Hook." The whole town were now gasping.

"I wasn't able to protect her as to when I woke up by her scream I was knocked out by what I believe is the handless wonders only hand as you can see by the bruise and scratch on my face, the scratch is most likely caused by his ring. So I've called y'all here tonight to ask if you would be willing to help me, and the Charming's to find our missing Emma."

"Of course we are willing to help!" Grumpy answered and all the others agreed and Regina could feel a ton of weight being lifted of her shoulders.

David had showed up with Neal who was still very sleepy and Granny had offered to babysit him so he could continue his sleep. Lucy had been forced with them as well even though she had been stubborn to help them find her grandma but had only caved when Regina had told her it's safer for her to stay with Granny. Also she could keep Neal entertained incase he woke up. Which was still weird for her to have a great uncle her own age. But she had agreed but not before giving Regina a big hug.

The citizens had been assigned different areas to look as they had no clue as to where Hook had taken her and they were all off to look for her.

Regina had put on her mayoral face but both Henry and Snow could see right through it and it hurt them to see her like this. Regina was never the one to show emotions, they both knew that, and had experienced it quite often and today was no difference.

Henry walked up to his mother and hugged her.

"We will find her, I know we will because that's what this family does." He whispered into her ear.

"I know. But in what state will she be in when we do? That's what I'm worried about."

Henry hadn't thought that far yet but the images showing up in his head made him horrified and he now knew the worry his mother was fighting. He motioned for Snow to come over to them and she nodded before walking up to them.

"My mom told me something that was bothering me that has know given me horrible imagery." He told her in a low voice.

"Oh?"

"I told her that we will find her because that's what this family does…" Snow couldn't help but smile at that sentence but it faded as he continued.

"She said she knows that but in what state will she be in when we do find her." The images appeared in Snow's mind now and it wasn't something she hopes she will encounter.

Snow took over from Henry and he was now off with Ella to go help with the search and rescue.

"Hey Regina. Don't think like that it's just gonna mess you up even more."

"I know, but I can't help it…"

"…Remember when you rescued me after being kidnapped and electrocuted by Greg? The state I was in after…it's hard not to think about things like that when you, yourself have been through just that."

Snow had totally forgotten about the time Regina had been kidnapped and electrocuted by Greg but she did recall when they had rescued her and the state Regina was in, Regina's body was heavy and the woman was visibly taken and exhausted. She had slept for hours after she had been rescued. This was somehow a memory Snow thought she never would forget but clearly had, and it made her feel a little bit guilty.

"I do, but I also remember how strong you are and how well you adapted afterwards, and you did it mostly by yourself. I also know how strong Emma is, especially after the miscarriage and leaving Hook, but compared to you she won't be alone, and I'm not saying that you were alone because we were right here but you did isolate yourself and we knew that when you isolate yourself we can't force you to let us help you, but Emma is different, she will isolate herself but still allow you to help her, and I know that both you and me will do that, we will help her, and so will your son and because you have your own experience in this I know that you of all people will understand what she is going through."

Snow made really good points and Regina couldn't help but nod, because she knew she was right. Regina would fight for Emma with all she had.

Regina breathed before she grabbed ahold of Snow's hand and they were both off going to look for Emma.

In a secluded part of Storybrooke Emma was finally coming to after been knocked up by some drug. She took in her surroundings and sighed. No one will find her here she thought.

She heard some rattling noices and the door swung open and Killian stumbled in.

"Hello my love." He greeted.

The rage washed over Emma.

"Why am I here?" She questioned angrily.

"No need to be hostile love. I'm doing this for us."

Emma rolled her eyes.

"No Killian, you are doing this for you. I can't believe I actually loved you, let alone married you, you are horrible. Compared to Regina you never actually changed and you'll always be that pirate villain that everyone fears. It doesn't matter what you do, I'll never go back to you and I sure as hell will never love you again. I hate the fact that I was too blind to see who you really were and too blind to see that I had True Love right in front of me all this time and that True Love being Regina." Emma ranted about and it made Killian furious and he slapped her across the face.

"Don't mention that name ever again in front of me! You understand!" Emma just looked away not answering his question and he turned around and headed out of the room.

"Regina please find me." Emma whispered before shutting her eyes tight.
