A few hours later Anna Sophia, Mary Margret, Emma, and Ashley with her baby are celebrating at Granny's. "I can't believe you kissed Gold in court today." said Ruby who had come over to the booth they were sitting in

"I just got overexcited and he was right there. It didn't mean anything It's not like I dated him and then slept with him. Like someone we know did with a certain doctor who works at the hospital." said Anna Sophia

"Anna Sophia! That's private!" said MM

"It was also disturbing." said Anna Sophia

August enters Granny's and walks up to the table.

" Hello, girls. Congratulations!" said August "Emma… Anna Sophia, I was wondering if the two of you were free later there is something important I wanted to discuss with you."

"I am!" said Anna Sophia

"I'm free too but what did you want to talk about?" asked Emma

"We'll talk later." said August who leaves the restaurant. "Meet me by the town line."

"That man is odd." said MM

"Yep." said Anna Sophia.

Henry rushes into the diner and goes over to Emma and Anna Sophia.

"Emma… Anna Sophia, we have an operation cobra emergency." said Henry

" I guess we're popular today. Excuse us." said Anna Sophia getting up and moving over to another booth with Henry and Emma

"Someone added a story to the book." said Henry " It's Pinocchio...But everyone knows how that ends."

"Maybe they don't." said Anna Sophia

"Do you know something?" asked Henry

"I'm sorry, Henry. I took your book and I gave it to August. He must have added the story. I think he originally wrote this book and I bet this has something to do with him asking us to meet him this afternoon." said Anna Sophia

"He asked you to meet him?" asked Henry

"Yes, I think he has his own plan to try and break the curse." said Anna Sophia "And he knows about Cobra so he thought adding this story might get us in the right direction."

Later that day Anna Sophia and Emma wait by the town line when August rides up. "All right, on!" said August

"Where are we going?" asked Emma

"To the place where I can tell my story." said August

They get onto the bike and drive out of town. They go to a diner not too far away and then walk into the forest. They get to an eerie looking tree and August stops.

"What are we doing in the woods?" asked Emma

" This is where it all began Emma this is where I found you." said August

Anna Sophia goes over to the tree and touches it "This is where she came out from?" asked Anna Sophia

"No. I was found on the side of a highway." said Emma

"You think people would have believed me if I told them that we both came out of this tree?" asked August

"What do you mean both?!" asked Anna Sophia a little ticked off.

"My father had the blue fairy tell you that there was only enough magic for one because he didn't want to lose me but the tree actually held enough for two." said August

Anna Sophia slaps him.

"It wasn't my idea." said August

"I know but your father isn't here for me to slap!" Anna Sophia pointed out

"What is the point of all this?" asked Emma

"The point is that you were sent here to save everyone and you have to believe before it is too late!" said August suddenly he feels his leg twinge.

"Are you all right?" asked Anna Sophia

" No, I'm not. I'm turning back into wood." said August

"You're Pinnocchio!" and Emma and Anna Sophia together

"Well that explains the lying." said Emma

"I've never lied to you but maybe this will prove it." August says and then sits down and shows her him wood leg. Anna Sophia gets worried but Emma sees nothing.

"It's just a leg." said Emma

"You don't see it! Wow, you really don't believe." said August

"What I believe in is a better life for my son." said Emma

"You have to believe in yourself too because this town is counting on you." said Anna Sophia

"I didn't ask to save everyone! I don't want to do that! Now, you're taking me back." said Emma

"Emma, listen to him! We love you. You're father, Mary Margret, and I… we want to be a family again but we can't until you start to trust your friends, trust us, and most importantly trust yourself!"

Emma stomps away. Anna Sophia helps August up and they go back to the bike. That night, Emma and Anna Sophia come to pick up Henry. Emma tells him she is taking him out of Story brooke and he says he'd be happy to go until he realizes what is really going on. "You want to leave now?" asked Henry.

"We can't you have to break the curse." Henry pointed out and then turns to Anna Sophia "How can you let her do this?"

"I'm not but she won't listen to me. I thought maybe she'd listen to you." said Anna Sophia

"I'm doing what is best here." said Emma

"Best for who? Best for you? Because what's best for you isn't BEST! You are just running away. You can't do that!" yelled Anna Sophia

Henry decides to take matters into his own hands and pulls the car over to the side.

"Henry, you could have gotten us all killed!" yelled Emma

"He's got my impulsiveness and my determination. Now, please, don't make him leave." said Anna Sophia

"Please, mom!" pleaded Henry

Emma and Anna Sophia enter the apartment a little while later.

"O, I thought you two had left." said MM "But I wasn't sure because neither of you bothered to say goodbye though Anna Sophia left that note." said MM "You remember when I ran away what you said Emma? You said we have to stick together. So why after everything did you just go? and you how could you just let her?"

"I didn't want to be sheriff anymore." said Emma "I don't want people relying on me. I don't want any of this."

"And I went with her to try to talk her out of this because you're right we should be sticking together. I've said that since day 1." said Anna Sophia

"What about Henry?" asked Mary Margret ignoring her sister

"She took him with us." said Anna Sophia

"You abducted him?" MM asked

"Yes." said Emma

"You don't want people relying on you but you took your own son. You're reverting back to the person you were and I thought you'd changed and you know I'd except this from Anna Sophia not from you." said Mary Margret

"Excuse me! Did you forget I was here! Well, I am! And I would never kidnap anyone! And to be clear. I'm the one that talked Emma into coming back and who told her it was not a good idea. I'm the one trying to get her to believe so don't you dare start yelling at me and calling me a delinquent!" yelled Anna Sophia then she turns to Emma " As for you, you need to figure out what the right thing for Henry is and you need to figure it out fast!"

Anna Sophia is passing by Regina's when she sees Emma walk up the path. "Emma, wait. I know you think leaving alone is the best thing for Henry but it's not the best for anyone. The best thing for Henry is to have both of his mothers in his life. Regina doesn't understand that but you can. I've known Regina for a long time and she'll ignore any truce you give her." said Anna Sophia

Emma ignores Anna Sophia and goes in the house. A little while later she walks out and Anna Sophia knocks on the door. Regina answers.

"Miss Blanchard, what do you want?" asked Regina

" Just because Emma wants to leave town doesn't mean she will and just because she stopped fighting to get Henry back doesn't mean I'll stop fighting. And if you did anything to stop her from fulfilling her destiny. I will rain blood and fire, lady! And the one who gets hurt won't be us it will be you!" said Anna Sophia

" Threaten me all you want because you're wrong. This will get me exactly what I want, Snow White." said Regina "O, and tell Emma I hope she has pleasant dreams."

Anna Sophia runs home. Emma is pacing when she comes in " Emma, you don't have to do this." said Anna Sophia

"Yes. Yes, I do." said Emma

There is a knock on the door and Henry comes in "Are you all right? You sounded funny over the walkie."

"I'm fine but you were right. When you said I shouldn't take you out of Story brooke. I can't but I can't stay here either." said Emma

"What? Leave Story brooke?" asked Henry

" I made a deal with Regina I can still see you just not everyday." said Emma

"No, you can't trust her. " said Henry "You're just scared this is the low point before your defining moment."

" Henry this is not a fairytale. This is reality. You got to stop running away, skipping school, and believing in curses." said Emma

" You really don't believe?" asked Henry

"Emma, I know you think this is right but it's curse is real and you are giving up on it." said Anna Sophia "You are giving up on Henry and on this family."

"My only family is Henry. He's the only one in my life right now and me leaving is best for him. I'm sorry but it is." said Emma

"Who are you trying to convince us or yourself?" asked Anna Sophia " Listen, you may have made a deal and Regina will probably take very good care of Henry but she wants you dead. She wants this entire family dead because you are the only one who can break this curse and we are the only ones who can stop her."

"All she ever did was fight for Henry it just got out of hand." said Emma

"It's about more than just Henry. " said Anna Sophia

Henry hugs her and then notices the turnover. "Where did you get that?" asked Henry

"From Regina." said Anna Sophia

"You can't eat that it's poison." said Henry

"Henry, don't be ridiculous." said Emma

"The deal was a trick to get you to eat that." said Henry

"Henry, if she doesn't want to eat it maybe you should." said Anna Sophia

Henry nods and takes the turnover.

"I'm Sorry. Maybe you don't believe in the curse, or me, but I believe in you." said Henry

"Wait! Henry, wait." Anna Sophia takes a knife and then takes the turnover. "I want half." she splits int in half and gives half to Henry " Goodbye, Henry. I love you. Emma, I'm sorry you'll have to lose me again but I have faith you'll find me. We always find each other in this family."

They both take bites of their half. "You two want ice cream or something?" Emma says after nothing happens the suddenly they both fall over.

"Anna Sophia! Henry!" yelled Emma
