Chapter 4: Little Red Riding Hood
Emma's Pov
The full moon was at its peak as I ran through the woods, trailing behind the wolf that tried to run. My plans were changed when Ruby caught me stealing her cloak and killing her grandmother, now here I was chasing her through the trees at midnight and I was getting impatient.
"Enough of this"
With a flick of my wrist I transported us both to Zelena's old farm, the closest open space that I knew of where we wouldn't be disturbed. When we landed she charged at me with her teeth bared and claws ready. And just as she pounced I threw the cloak at her and she fell midair. Seconds later Ruby appeared angry and scowling.
"I already know what you want and the answer is no, especially after what you did to Snow" A mist covered her eyes at the mention of my mother's name and the small part of me that could still love felt a beat of sadness but it went away as soon as it came.
"I'm the Dark One Little Red, I don't ask for permission"
"That doesn't matter, I'd still rather die than let you use"
"If you weren't of use to me then you'd already be dead"
"I AM of no use to you! There is nothing you can do that will make me your pet! You already killed the people I love most so you have no leverage!"
"That's where you are wrong. Allow me to show you" A conjured a fireball and threw it at her discarded robed and it burst into flames. Ruby screamed out in terror and tried to stomp the fire out but by the time the flames died down it was only a pile of burnt and tattered fabric.
"No!" She screamed. She turned to me and growled and I smirked when she began to change back.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you Ruby, how are you suppose to change back without your cloak?" I laughed when I saw her eyes widened. She curled into herself trying to stop the change but her fight was useless and we both knew it. So I stood there smiling as I watched her turn into the beast she despised being.
Once her shift was completed she lunged at me and I quickly dodged. When she moved to try and strike me again I froze her in mid air. And it was with her floating infront of that I let a dark cloud of magic flow out of me and surround her. I filled her mind with new memories and darkened the old. Now in her mind all the people that she had ever loved have tried to kill her or change her and in her mind she was the one who killed them, and she loved it. The only happy thought she has was of me, I was still her savior who took her in and protected her from all those who wished to harm her and in turn she did the same for me.
I let my magic stop once I was sure that it had warped her mind for good and I unfroze her. She landed on the ground with a thud and stared up at me red eyes. Then she walked over and rubbed her head against my leg and began to purr.
"Good girl" I said as I threaded my fingers through her soft furr.
I began walking towards town and the new Ruby followed right next me. I smiled to myself as I thought about my plan coming together, there were just two more people I had to deal with.
