Hey guys sorry for the almost hiatus. I've been following all the great stories in the Mary Margaret/Snow White and Emma family world and I am proud to be a part of it. Everyone should be just as excited as I am for season two!

This different perspective should be interesting and hopefully a good choice.

Ruby shifts on her feet as she waits impatiently for her Granny to come out of the office. They had just got to the diner and were about to open it up but then Granny rushed into the office and said not to open. It is her job to get the bar and booths ready for customers while Granny cleans up outside and the tables. Something happened and when Granny came inside, she had been eager to go to the back room.

"Come on Granny! You are taking forever." Ruby yells out. She leans casually against the bar in her scantily outfit. It normally would be great if Granny took her time because then she wouldn't have to work but today she wanted to get everything out of the way so she could hang out with Ashley.

Then out of the blue, Granny asked her to call Mary Margaret. She could barely hear the conversation because Granny was quick to shoo her away. It took some serious ease dropping skills for her to hear that Granny wanted Mary Margaret to come to the diner. She casually strolls over to Granny after she hung up the phone.

"What was that about?" Ruby tries to keep the curiosity out of her voice. If Granny knew that she was interesting in her business then she would go on a rant about how she shouldn't butt into people's business. Granny nervously glances at her.

"I need you to stay here. Mary Margaret should be coming very soon and I need you to let her in. I'm keeping the shop closed today so the door is locked." Her grandma's strange behavior unnerves her slightly but not enough to be uneasy. She nods and smiles because that means that she will get the day off to spend with Ashley and that adorable baby. Granny goes back into the office and does whatever she does back there.

It only takes a few minutes before Mary Margaret shows up at the door. Now she is worried. The poor woman, she is secretly protective of, appears looking pale and has frightened eyes. It feels like Mary Margaret is looking through her to search for Granny. Immediately Ruby rushes to her friend and they walk into the diner together.

"Are you okay, Mary Margaret?" Her voice cracks subtly. Her eyes try to meet Mary Margaret's but she is persistently looking for Granny.

"Granny?!" Mary Margaret yells out loudly. As soon as she does that, Granny comes rushing out and ushers the both of them to her office. They stand around while Granny sits down in front of a small, old TV and presses play. The screen fills with a black and white version of the walkway in front of the diner. Right as Ruby is about to ask what they are doing, Granny seems to sense it and quiets her hurriedly.

Ruby sees a person appear on the tiny screen, and immediately Mary Margaret stiffens beside her. She has to squint to see who it is but Ruby isn't surprised to see that it is Emma. The woman is usually on her own but what startles her is that the screen said it was two in the morning.

Emma sat down and shivered. David showed up and sat beside her. He casually placed a thick blanket around Emma.

Ruby can't hold back a little 'aww'. She glances at Mary Margaret out of the corner of her eye and observes that even Mary Margaret has softened features at the motion. Her attention is turned back to the video, but quickly Ruby gets bored. The video plays for another three minutes with them just talking. The stupid video camera doesn't pick up sound so Ruby can't understand what they are talking about but, from the increasingly defensive gestures Emma is projecting, Ruby concludes that David is losing ground in the conversation.

Emma stood up, and hesitantly took the blanket off herself. Emma offered it to David when he stood up as well but David just started walking away. Emma stared at the blanket, then at David's retreating form. Emma stood there, shivering, and no doubt contemplating what to do with the large blanket left to her.

Granny suddenly sucks in her breath, and gazes at Mary Margaret. Sensing that something more is about to happen from Granny's response, Ruby grabs Mary Margaret's hand in an attempt to prepare the woman for whatever came next. They all wait with baited breaths.

Emma started to walk off, getting closer and closer to the edge of the video screen, but then she stopped to glance behind her at a black van. Emma made nothing out of the strange car so she continued to walk farther.

Pain unexpectedly overwhelms Ruby, and for a moment she is disoriented. But she glances down and sees that Mary Margaret's grip is becoming extremely tight. It takes everything for Ruby not to wince because of the pain. She bares it, and tries not to make Mary Margaret guilty for hurting her; the situation is bad already. A quick movement on the video captures Ruby's attention.

A man rapidly jumped out of the driver's seat of the van. He raced towards Emma with a gun in hand.

A loud gasp is heard in the room, and Mary Margaret's other hand is on Ruby's arm. The grip of that hand is worse but she doesn't focus on that because something much worse is happening on the screen.

Emma turned around too late. The man was right there, and hit Emma harshly on the head with the blunt end of the gun. Emma crumpled to the ground. Blood leaked out of the wound inflicted. The man dragged Emma into his van and drove away.

Granny slowly turns off the security footage, and turns back to look at Mary Margaret. Ruby also watches her friend for the inevitable reaction. All Ruby can see is that Mary Margaret is frozen, pale, and still gripping her arm like it is all she has left. Ruby glances at Granny, who finally sees Mary Margaret's hands holding tight on Ruby's arm. Granny gets up and carefully pulls Mary Margaret towards the dining room. The poor woman looks like she is about to throw up.

"Mary Margaret, please sit. I know this must be very hard for you-" Granny's attempts to offer comfort are interrupted by Mary Margaret glaring at the wall. It startles them both to see the woman glare, at all. Ruby cannot remember a single instance where she has seen Mary Margaret glare, but it feels like right now Mary Margaret wants to glare at Granny but glares at the wall instead. Granny continues despite the shock. "But we have to get the mayor involved."

Now that gets Mary Margaret's attention. Ruby stumbles back when Mary Margaret bolts up, a stark contrast from her previous paralyzed state.

"No. The last thing we need is Regina getting involved." Mary Margaret states with more authority than Ruby has ever heard her use. Ruby's mind whirls when she tries to think about how this Mary Margaret is the same with the timid schoolteacher on a date with Mr. Whale. A part of her is happy that Mary Margaret has found someone to make her be self-assured. It is a shame that it took that someone being kidnapped for it to happen.

"She is the only one with the resources to find Emma. We need her help." Granny continues to push to go to the Mayor. Ruby disagrees with her grandma but keeps her mouth shut, and is fine with watching.

I know at the end i make Ruby seem like she doesn't care and just watches the whole thing but she does.

PLEASE let me know what you think. TWO MORE DAYS PEOPLE!
