ch.9

Emma, Elsa, Ingrid, Regina and Anna are all sitting in Granny's Dinner. Ingrid is still bitter about Maleficent escaping, even though she was talked into letting her live by Anna. She couldn't help but fantasize about freezing her into an ice sculpture and then breaking her into a million ice cubes. Elsa was having similar thoughts, while she agreed with Anna not to seek revenge, she still had some bad thoughts. Anna too, even though she wouldn't admit it.

"We need to find her!" Ingrid Demanded

"Calm down Ingrid" Emma protested "I know that you hate Maleficent, I understand that, and we are going to find her, I promise"

"Regina, you knew her back in the enchanted forest, do you have any idea where she would go?" Elsa asked

"I would expect her to go take refuge in a cave but the only one in town is now an ice bucket thanks to your insane aunt."

"You know I could freeze you solid right?"

"Now now girls, no need to fight."

The group turns to the entrance and they see Maleficent standing in it. Standing strong but keeping her staff tight in her hand, considering that someone at the table came close to killing her yesterday.

"Maleficent! What do you want!" Ingrid demanded

"Nothing from you. However, I would like to thank your niece for talking you into sparing me. As such I have decided to spare Emma's parents."

"Really?"

"Under one condition. You have to find someone for me."

"Lilly..."

"Yes, my daughter. I have heard that you have a gift for finding people."

"Why dont you just use a locator spell and find her yourself" Anna inquired

"There is no magic beyond the town line, so a locator spell wouldn't work and I would return to the dust from whence I came."

"Leave the town!"

"Ingrid!"

"Oh come on Anna."


Later that day, Emma does some research and finds out that Lily's last know address is in an apartment in New York. Fate has a strange way of bringing people who have history close together. When she and Regina left, Ingrid, Elsa, Anna and Merida began searching for a way back. Merida finally managed to catch a wisp while the rest of them were fighting witches. And they were following it to "a way home."

"I can't believe we're following a blue ball" Ingrid complained

"It is the willo-the-wisp, and they are quite helpful. It will lead us to a way home, I promise"

"My nieces have informed me that you have troubles with magic. I'm not quite fond of people like that so if you get any ideas..."

"I was just thinkin the same thing."

"Both of you stop! The wisp is leading us into that big house over there." Elsa said

"Hey I recognise that place" Anna stated "Belle showed me it, it was the place that she and Rumplestiltskin went for their..um...honey moon."

"Well he had nice taste" Merida joked

"Well actually it was her idea. You know she called the New York hospital to see if he is ok and she found out that he died. His black heart just gave out. She was crushed."

"Well, serves him right. As far as I am concerned, anyone who tried to trap Emma in a hat deserves it."

"You know, despite everything, A part of Belle will always love him. Can't see why, I mean, that guy was a monster, manipulated me into helping him get the hat in the first place. But there must have been some good in him for her to love him."

"What's this about a hat?"

"Anna brought home a magic hat that has the power to absorb magic, made me really suspicious of her when I found it..and no you can't have it Merida."

"I wasn't going to ask for it. Actually I could use some magic to take my brothers back from the clans."

"Oh so magic is bad except for when it suits you."

"Stop you two, let's go check the place out."

The four women step inside the mansion. The wisp leads them down the hall. Traveling down it, Anna notices a variety of paintings and art sculptures that she found at awe. Finally the wisp arrives at a strange blue door and then disappears.

"The wisp is gone!"

"It's ok, these are Arendelle crocuses. It's our way home."

"No wait Anna, Magic in this town can be unpredictable. Better let me open it."

Ingrid opened the door, and inside was a portal, looking through it they could see the Arendelle castle across the sea

"That's it, that's home!"

"Not for me!"

"We'll give you a ride back, and we'll help you get your brothers back. So should we go?"

"Not just yet, me and Ingrid want to say bye to Emma."

"Yeah, and besides we need to make sure everything will be ok between Emma's family and Maleficent's."


Later that evening Emma and Regina returned to Storybrooke along with Lily. Emma had called her parents ahead of time to tell them that somehow Lily already knew about her origins and Maleficent being her mother. Emma was starting to get over her anger, that's why she told them that Lily was still bitter.

Maleficent and Lily reunited, though Lily was less than happy about Maleficent's change in heart and left. Next time they saw her, she was a giant dragon running around town. Chasing after her was Ingrid, Maleficent, Mary Margaret and David.

"I think it went that way"

"She.." Mary Margaret added, correcting her husband

"Thank you." Maleficent said to Mary Margaret. "i'm worried about her, you have to be taught to fly and she was too close to the ground. If her wing tip hit a tree she could be seriously hurt."

"So what is your plan when we find her?"

"I think I can calm her down."

"If that fails I can just cover her in a ice block."

"Don't you dare touch my daughter!"

"I wouldn't raise your voice. I have already subdued you once.."

"Enough! We have to stop this! You're angry at Maleficent because she killed your sister! You're angry at Ingrid because she beat you! And Lily wants to kill me and Charming for banishing her, it is just one big web of hate and revenge that we need to all just get over!"

Hearing dragon breath the group walks over to see Lily in dragon form sleeping.

"She looks just like me."

Lily begins to awaken, She has no control of herself and is breathing fire everywhere and Maleficent runs over

"Be careful!"

"She's my daughter."

After Maleficent runs over, Mary Margaret, out of conscious follows after her, Ingrid and David follow soon afterwards. Lily is still breathing fire rapidly.

"She's out of control!"

"Can I freeze her now!?"

"Over your dead body!"

"Mary Margaret!" David screams as he sees Lily's reptilian tail knock Mary Margaret against some rocks. He runs over to her side while Lily flies away. Ingrid goes to wait by the charmings for Emma to arrive and Maleficent goes to see her daughter.

"I'm here. Where is she?" Emma asks as she arrives at the scene of the incident. She walks over to her bleeding mother and uses a spell to heal her.

"You're still healing inside you need time."

"Emma, I am so sorry. I was stupid and selfish."

"I know, and I am done being angry at you."

"What?"

"Mom, dad, I forgive you, and I love you"

The two royals hug their daughter. Emma looks over at Ingrid who is witnessing the event, she has a cold look on her face, which then turns into a friendly smile, and Emma smiles back.

Later that night, Emma, Mary Margaret and David meet with Ingrid, Elsa, Anna and Merida at the mansion. The four women from the other world are standing in front of the open portal home. And Emma is sad.

"So, I guess this is it." Emma says

"Yeah." Elsa replies

"Thank you so much for taking care of us while we were here." Anna says

"It's kind of what we do. Goodbye Elsa, goodbye Anna."

"Good bye Emma"

"Goodbye Ingrid"

Ingrid shows a sad smile, then opens her arms and steps towards Emma. Emma opens her arms as well and wraps them around Ingrid. Elsa joins in while Anna goes to give a goodbye hug to David and Mary Margaret. Meanwhile Merida is just standing around, waiting impatiently to return home.

"Can we go already, I have a kingdome to take back and brothers to save."

"In a minute! Now you two" Ingrid says turning to David and Mary Margaret "Whatever your teaching Emma, keep doing it."

"Well do."

"Alright then, goodbye to all of you."

Ingrid steps into the portal, followed by Merida, then Elsa, and lastly Anna. As they go through the portal. It closes behind them and the door crumbles.

The four women land just outside the castle, as they walk around a familiar face on a reindeer comes out to see what is going on.

"Kristoff!"

"Anna!"

The two love birds run over and hug each other.

"Where have you been, I've been looking all over for you. I've had the royal guards and everything!"

"I took a bit of a trip. Oh and I ran into David again."

"David, oh how is he?"

"He's great, married, has a daughter who is really nice but also his same age, kind of a long story."

"Whoa, what is she doing here!?" Kristoff says as he just notices Ingrid

"It's ok, she's cool now. She isn't going to hurt anyone anymore, but where is Hans?"

"He's still frozen, so I made him a shovel holder in Sven's stables. Gotta say I like him better this way."

"I'll be happy to thaw him once we have a nice, un-comfy, cell for him in the dungeon."

"Yes, ya do that, but for now, you promised me ya would help me get me brothers back."


Warning, the next chapter will be my last. Both for this story and the series. I have had a great time and I have enjoyed your reviews, but now I need to take a break. Perhaps I will get back to doing stories later, but now I need to focus on school work. Leave replies.
