Episode Reaction: Ok... so I have so many Rumbelle feels. I can't believe they would actually do that... I mean I love Belle being so badass and I'm so proud of her, but seriously... that was COLD. Outlaw Queen kind of had to abandon ship too... ugh these writers tho. I'm glad that everything worked out for captain swan though!

A/N: Omg guys again I'm so sorry ugh I'm usually so good about keeping up with my stories I've been so busy lately! Anyway, onto the next phase of the story!

Thank you and enjoy!


Chapter 10

Blood Red Eyes

Emma looked around herself and groaned realizing the next stage of her spell changed her clothes once more.

She looked over to her right and felt a pounding sensation making her ears ring from the sound.

"What the Hell?" She shouted as the ringing started getting louder and she had to cover her ear to stop them from bleeding.

She jumped as something scurried in her peripheral vision making her turn in the opposite direction.

It disappeared once she saw it again, but decided to follow it as it kept teleporting in and out of her sight.

She walked forward, treading slowly as the trust she felt before slowly drifted away...

She gasped as she finally saw the unknown figure...

"Wait... no... it can't be..." She whispered to herself as she realized just what this creature was...

It was a whitish grey wolf, so beautiful and majestic, with a defining red eye on the left side of his face.

"You're always here for a reason aren't you boy?" She said as she held out her hand, only to be rejected immediately.

He started to run this time, so she figured she should do the same.

She continued to follow the beast, being as cautious as she could so not to startle him.

She was brought back to the town road, and rolled her eyes at the lights illuminating from Grannie's shop.

The wolf then appeared before her, whimpering and placing its head underneath her fingers, and Emma smiled as his rough fur tickled her fingers.

When it disappeared, she figured it would just show up again... but it didn't.

She sighed, realizing that this was probably another trick from her illusion...

But then she heard a voice call for her...

"Emma..." It spoke softly as she slowly turned around.

As she saw the figure before her, she found tears start to fill up her eye sockets as she immediately recognized who it was.

"Graham..." She whispered as she started to run to him.

The feeling she was having was mix of relief and expectation as she embraced his body, digging her face into his shoulders.

"You're back..." She said in between sobs.

Graham pulled away to look into her eyes. "You don't realize how much I've missed you..."

He stared at her in adoration as he slowly placed his lips onto hers, making her grasp the back of his neck in return.

She felt his hands start going lower as the minutes passed, and their passionate kiss become even stronger.

She finally pulled away. "I never got a chance to tell you I love you." She whispered softly.

"Well I guess we're even then."

They smiled at each other as their hands entwined and started making their way down the street, seemingly in a love struck daze.

"We really need to catch up." He said suddenly, making her giggle softly.

"You think? I haven't seen you in two years!"

He seemed a little sad at her remark, but quickly pointed to the forest that surrounded the town.

"Come on, I have something to show you."

She followed him, gripping his hand tightly along with it.

He pointed to a spot between a couple of trees, making her eyebrows raise. "Okay...?"

She screeched as she felt him push her into the trees, and felt another gust of wind as her surroundings started to change...

"Welcome to the Enchanted Forest." He said as his clothes suddenly turned into animal hides and armor and her dress changed to rags and a bodice.

She couldn't believe that this spell could change even Storybrooke, but she was interested in what else it could pull off.

The handsome huntsman waved at her to keep moving, and she did what she was told.

But even so, she couldn't help but look behind her, wary of the next adventure would unfold.
