After Snow and David was left standing in the middle of Granny's with everyone looking at them as they shook their head in disappointment. They left soon after as they couldn't take the disappointed looks on their subjects faces. They spent hours in the flat without talking as Snow was to deep in thought and David left her to it. Well until he became worried.

SNOWS POV

How can this be? Gold made me a deal yet here I am. Why did I make the deal? Then the answer struck me. I shook my head. I knew I couldn't tell anyone not even David. 'but what if he finds out or anyone else.' The voice in the back of my head said pushing it's self forward making itself heard. Nothing is going to happen. I can't tell him that I knew from the start that Emma was never ours. I can't tell him about my-

"Snow, are you ok?" David asked with a concerned look on his face. Breaking me out of my thoughts I pull him in for a deep kiss.

"David we need to get Emma back before anything else happens...and if we don't then our time running from the Evil Queen will be like child's play." I said after the kiss ended. As I talk my voiced change from sweet to salty.

"why do you say that? It's still about Emma and she needs some time snow. She found her family and you don't have to be related by blood to be family." I hate keeping things to myself but I have done it for the last 32 years so what's wrong with a couple more. It doesn't help the fact that everything's falling apart I need to kill the monsters in the town but David wouldn't approve. As I had an inner battle David stood patiently. Then it came to me I need to leave David for the time being move to my cabin then save Emma and the town from all the evil.

"I'm sorry David but I can't do this. Things need to be done and if we stay together you will talk me out of them. I love you." I say as I quickly packed a bag then ran out the front door.

David POV

My heart felt like it was splitting in two. I didn't ever realise I was walking anywhere until I came face to face with Zelena, a ball of green flames in one hand. "what do you want?" she hissed at me.

"I..." is all I could say before I burst into tears. I felt arms wrap round my waist and usher me into the house.

"I know I don't know you and we are not on the best of terms but I'm here for you. Don't be ashamed for feeling the way you do." I hear an unusually calm and sympathetic tone to the witches voice. I couldn't answer as I broke into more tears.

After my tears died down I finely spoke "I'm here because I wanted to see Emma and talk to her. I need to warn you all. I'll tell you later when Emma and her family are here." My voice a bit raw from all the crying.

"ok I get that and I'm sure Emma will be thankful that you are here to talk but that doesn't explain why you spent the last hour crying into my shoulder." Yet again spoken in that soft tone.

"I will tell but not now. I will tell you when the others are here so I don't need to repeat myself." I said hoping she would buy it so it could give me some time to think. "Well I'm just going to leave. Emm I'll come back in the morning." I go to stand up but was stopped with a hand on my knee.

"Regina might kill me for this but I don't care. Emma and Regina are already asleep so why don't, if you want, to spend and the night here in one of the guest rooms or the couch if you want. Oh, and there is left overs in the fridge if you get hungry." All I could do was nod my head overwhelmed at the fact that someone that had made my life hell for a year or two was now caring and loving. "Well they are for you," she said pointing to a pair of shorts and a tee that seemed to come out of nowhere. "the bathroom is just along the hall beside the stairs and the first bed room up the stairs is free but don't go any further than that. Night Charming." And with that she was gone.

I sat shocked for a couple minute until it wore off. I quickly grab the cloths provided and went to the bathroom to do my night routine. I then head back to the living room and grab a blanket that sat on the back of the couch and lay down. Once I was comfy I ended up lost in thought as the events of the day start to catch up with me.

I lost what I fought for so many years, my wife. My lovely wife that walked out on me because of what, she didn't trust me, was keeping things from or... I huff in frustration. The feeling in my heart was horrible but soothing at the same time. Which made no sense to me the last time something like this happened was in Nederland. I remember the pain I felt at the fact I might die and lose Snow for ever but this feels nothing like that. I feel lighter more free.

I didn't know at the time but snow leaving was one of the best things to happen in my life beside meeting her in the first place.

ZELENA'S POV

When I appeared upstairs in Regina's bedroom, where she and Emma lay cuddling just how I had left them before David showed up. The anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach grows at the possibility that whatever charming has to tell us all would affect or harm the woman I love.

Beside them on the night stand was Emma's drawing book lying open at the page we discarded it. The hand that was drawn in the centre of the page had cuts and imperfections all over it and a black hole in the middle of the palm. Above the hand was a falling angle like it was just about to fall through the black hole in the hand. Below the hand was shaded and dark with bones and tomb stones, as well as the devil. I flip that page over to reread what Emma had written about her own drawing.

'life is a cycle of been born, live through it then die but fate keeps teasing me. I put my life on the line for everyone and I'm lucky I get a thanks but what they don't know is that I do it hoping I die. What have I got to live for. A mother and father that only care about me when they're in deep shit. I'm a falling angle and the only way is down.'

It broke my heart all over again at the fact such a beautiful person scars and feels so alone that they want to die. Emma reminds me so much of myself. I grew up in a family that didn't want me and it turned out that they were only my adoptive parents. For most of my life I felt hopeless and had shut myself out from everyone that was until I met Regina when we were teenagers. For that small bit of time I felt like I belonged until our mother got in the way. Then I tried to kill her coz of the effect she had on me but everything worked out.

I was broken out of my thought by a loud whimper. I looked beside me to see Regina sleeping peacefully but Emma had her face screwed up in discomfort and was whimpering and mumbling in her sleep.

"ohh sweetheart, it's just a nightmare. Shhh..." I gently shook Emma but she didn't wake up but Regina did and caught onto what was happen. She started to whisper sweet nothing's into her ear as she tried to wake her.

Nothing seemed to be working but just then Emma sat up screaming "Why?"

I was so confused. What was that meant to mean?

"why, what sweetheart?" I whispered.

"I thought I could see the future or...the past. I was just about to get the answer I need to save my family then I seemed to be snaked back into reality." Emma stammered.

"Emma you're not making much sense. What did you see?" Regina asked in a soft but firm voice.

"I saw Mary Margaret..." she took a deep breath and I knew whatever she was going to say must be bad. "... she banished a baby in the price of killing her own which was replaced by me." just then Maleficent showed up and nodded her head like she had been there the all along.

"I saw it to darling. We are linked I could see your nightmare but this isn't just any nightmare that actually happened. The child that was banished was Lily and you ended up being magically replacing snow's baby. Just so that the curve would be broken and the prophecy of the dark as night and bright as day sisters also known as yin and yang. The best part is Snow knew all along that she had killed her own baby but I don't know why." Mal said. I was shocked to say the least. Who would do such a thing? Oh, the biggest idiot of all Snow fucking White. But why?
