Chapter Ten-Emma POV
It was probably about three hours after lunch and I still hadn't heard anything about Marian except that she was talking to Tinker Bell this morning. I knew Regina and Robin Hood were still together. I could see it during the meeting at my parents' house. But did Marian know? And if she did, was she okay with it?
And then there was the whole 'Exterminators' thing that Gold had said. Apparently I was supposed to save Storybrooke against something I had never seen except for in Rose's drawing. We didn't even know when the daleks would attack.
"You okay, love?" Killian asked. We were currently sitting on the bench at the docks.
I shook my head. "No. I'm just worried."
"We defeated the Wicked Witch of the West," Killian reminded me. "You can take down the daleks."
"It was Regina who defeated the Wicked Witch," I reminded him.
"Well it was us who fell into the time portal, traveled back in time, and lived to tell the tale."
"I know. I just..." I sighed, "I worry."
"Would you feel better if you talked to Elsa?" Killian asked. "She has magic too."
I nodded. "Yeah. Maybe."

Elsa shrugged. "I'm not really sure if I can teach you how to use your magic."
"That's okay." I smiled and turned to walk away.
"Wait!" Elsa called.
I turned back around. "Yeah?"
"It might help if you think of a person you love, like a family member or friend," Elsa suggested. "For me, it's my sister, Anna."
I focused on Killian and a few sparks flew from my hand.
"That's it!" Elsa exclaimed. "Okay...um...try to get that book to appear in your hand."
I concentrated. It took a minute, but I was able to do it.
"It's working!"
I nodded and set the book back where it was. "I think I'm kind of getting the hang of it. The thinking-about-the-person-you-love thing helps."
"I know! It's like magic in itself. If you want, I can keep helping you?" Elsa offered.
"Sure. How about tomorrow after lunch?" I suggested.
Elsa agreed, so I left to find Killian.
"How'd it go?" He asked when I found him.
"Good. She's going to help me more after lunch tomorrow."
"Do you feel better now?"
"Yeah."
Killian entwined his hand with one of mine. "Do you want to get dinner at Granny's?"
"Why not?"
The two of us walked hand-in-hand to Granny's Diner.

Author's Note: First of all, I am VERY sorry for not updating. My summer has been busier than I expected. I'll try to post a chapter or two tomorrow to make up for it, and I'm working on another Outlaw Queen one-shot as well as possibly a Tenrose one, so be on the lookout for those in the near future.
