Here's another chapter! I hope I enjoy it!

"Regina. Regina wake up." Emma shoved her arm to wake her. "It's Killian. I know he's in trouble. Regina." Emma was worried. But she knew she could not do this alone.

"What? Emma, what the hell? It's the middle of the night." Regina grumbled, waking up. "What do you mean Killian's in trouble?"

"It's two-thirty. He promised he'd come back by midnight. And, he's still my true love. We're connected. And he's hurt. We have to find him." Emma was worried. She could not lose Killian.

Lilly woke up at the sound of their voices, and rubbed her eyes. "Momma.. What happening?" She asked softly, reaching for Emma to hold her.

"It's okay, Lilly. But I need you to stay here with your grandparents. Can you do that for me?" Emma asked her, kissing her forehead.

"No.. I want you, Momma.." She whimpered. "Don't leave me." She buried her face in Emma's shirt.

Emma looked up at Regina, before sighing. "Your papa needs me, Lilly. Regina and I have to go help him with something. Please stay here. I promise I'll be back." She said softly.

Lilly sighed. She was very upset that her mother was leaving. Their conversation woke David and Mary Margaret and they rushed into the room.

"Emma, what's going on? Why are you up so late?" David asked worriedly.

"Regina and I have got to go find Killian. Will you please watch Lilly? She's upset, but I need you to keep my daughter safe. Killian's daughter. Please?" Emma begged her father. The seriousness evident on her face.

"Of course. Come here, Lils. How about you come have a sleepover with Grandma and I? You can stay with us in our bed." David said to Lilly as he pulled her from Emma's lap. "Go to Killian, Emma. I don't know what has happened. But I can tell you still love him. And that you have some idea of what is happening."

Emma nodded. "Thank you, Dad." She kissed his cheek before he headed upstairs with Mary Margaret and an upset Lilly.

Emma and Regina quickly put on their coats before rushing down to the docks to find Killian.

"Where do you think we're going to find him, Miss Swan? We have no clue where he went. Except that he figured that asshole might be hiding out somewhere here, at the docks." Regina asked.

"Yes. But we're going to need magic to find him. We need a locator spell, Regina." Emma looked at her. "Do you have one?"

Regina nodded a little. "I do, in my office.. I'll just poof us into the office so we can get it." She did not want to leave Emma alone if the villain could be near.

In a simple flick of her wrist, Regina had sent the two of them into her office in the town hall.

"You have something of his right? Because otherwise we have to waste more time trying to get something from his home." Regina asked.

"Yes. I do.." Emma said softly. She reached for the chain around her neck and pulled out the Liam's old ring, and Emma's engagement and wedding rings.

"One of these has to work. They are all his." Emma told her. She just wanted to see Killian safe again.

"Alright, well I hope so, Miss Swan. I care about Killian too." Regina replied, taking the chain from Emma and pouring the potion over it.

Emma nodded. "Well, it's the best plan we've got."

Emma would do anything to protect Killian. She was just worried that he did not want her help. Even though his actions the previous day had shown her otherwise.

Suddenly the rings started glowing, so Regina led Emma towards where they were glowing the brightest. The docks.

"Well, your hunch turns out to be right. He is here." Regina said, before stopping in front of one of the abandoned warehouses. "This one. This is where Killian is."

Emma and Regina pushed open the door, both with their hands ready to use their magic if needed. They spent minutes searching every part of the warehouse, but Killian was nowhere to be found.

Before they could leave, a voice spoke from the shadows. "Sorry, lasses. You won't find your precious pirate that easily."

"Who the hell are you? Come out here where we can see you." Emma demanded.

"Now that's silly, why would I make it easy for you? Your magic won't work, Your Majesty. Neither will yours, Saviour." He chuckled. "Our dear Captain is safe and alive. For now."

Then the voice seemed to disappear and Emma looked over at Regina worriedly. "What the hell does he mean our magic won't work? Can he do that? Trick us, fake a locator spell?"

Emma still did not really know how magic worked. And if there was no curse, she had not practiced her magic in four years.

Regina nodded. "Unfortunately yes. He can do that. It's very difficult magic. But even the most complex magic has a weakness, or a loophole. Something that the spell caster wasn't anticipating."

Emma nodded. "Okay, so now we need to quickly find the hole in their magic. I can't lose Killian. /Lilly/ can't lose her father. She's only four." She was terrified of losing Killian. He was still her true love, even if they had grown apart recently. She never stopped loving him.

"Right, of course. But I don't think we should be doing this on our own. We need your parents' help. Maybe even Henry, since he is the author, he may have ideas on what to do." Regina agreed.

"Okay. Can you just poof us back to my parents? The sooner we get thinking, the more likely it is that Killian will be okay. I'll call Henry when we get there." Emma asked her.

Regina nodded and a second later they were back outside her parents' loft. Emma opened the door, and went inside.

"Maybe you should call Henry.. I'll go talk to my parents and ask them for their help. I feel like it should come from me." Emma explained.

Regina nodded. "Of course, and go get your little girl, I know she needs her mother right now."

Regina had helped Killian quite a lot with Lilly over the years, so she knew what Lilly needed.. She pushed Emma upstairs and called Henry. She gave him a quick explanation and knew he would be there in minutes.

Emma went up to her parents room. "Mom? Dad?" She said loud enough to wake them. She saw Lilly stir and notice her mother standing by the door. Before Emma could do anything, Lilly was scrambling over her grandfather's body and throwing herself into Emma's arms.

Emma knelt down and hugged her daughter close. "Emma, sweetie.. You're back already? Is everything okay?" Mary Margaret was getting out of the bed, and pulling David with her.

Emma shook her head. "No, Mom.. And I need you and Dad to help.. There's a problem." Emma ran her hand through Lilly's curls.

"Of course, we'll be right down. I just want to check on your sister quickly," Mary Margaret said.

"I'll start some coffee. I think we'll need it.." David said, already following Emma down stairs.

Emma sat on the couch and rocked Lilly gently. "Go back to sleep, Beautiful. I've got you. I'm not going anywhere," she whispered to her. Emma just wanted Lilly to sleep through the conversation she had to have with her parents.

Lilly grabbed onto Emma's shirt tightly. "Okay, Mommy," she said softly, too tired to protest her mother's wishes.

By the time Henry arrived, and David had given them all a cup of coffee, Lilly was sound asleep against Emma.

"Okay, would one of you two like to tell us what's going on? And why Killian isn't here with you?" Mary Margaret asked, worried about her daughter, and the man that had become like a son to her.

Regina looked at Emma before she spoke. "Well, Emma and I used a locator spell on Killian's rings to find him. And we were led to one of the empty warehouses down by the docks. But it was just that, Killian wasn't there. And, then whoever this person is, showed up and threatened us." She sighed. "He said that neither mine, nor Emma's magic will be able to find Killian and save him."

Thanks for reading! Sorry it ended kind of abruptly, I wanted to get something up for you, and a little suspense never hurt anyone(:
