As she sat there, her arms folded to try and keep the heat from escaping from her body, she thought back to the first time she had arrived to Storybrooke. How the curse was enacted, how Henry tried to make her believe, and how True Love's kiss broke the curse. Then it hit Emma like a truck slamming into the wall. "Why didn't I think of this earlier?!" Emma mutters out shaking her head. "Think of what, Dear?" Hook's deep voice rustled out from behind her. Emma looked back with surprise even though she had quickly recognized his scratchy yet inviting voice. "How to break the curse!" Emma said standing up with haste. Hook raised an eyebrow while leaning against the bench, "Aye...and how do we?"
"True Love's kiss." Emma breathily answered like her life depended on answering that one question. "You mean to say...a True Love's kiss needs to be made in order to break the curse?" Hook asked still unsure if it were just as simple as that. "Last time I had broken the curse from kissing Henry. Then maybe..." Emma slumped a bit as she thought of the plan. "Then...Henry needs to kiss...someone?"
Emma sighed sitting back down defeated. Hook rolled his eyes as his mouth parted to speak, "Not to say that wasn't a good plan, but there's just one thing missing from your excellent plan." Hook said walking around the bench sitting besides Emma with his elbows upon his knees. "Jane wasn't here. She never existed. How can that True Love's kiss work if Jane wasn't a part of that?" Hook says making a valid point. Jane never even existed let alone been through the first curse. Emma brightness up again her smile coming forward once more, but more joyously. "Mulan and Aurora need to remember Jane! They need to-" But before Emma could go on she saw someone walking toward them from the corner of her eye. Emma glanced to see who it was thinking it wasn't anyone she was close with, but to her surprise it was Mulan running along the path bundled up as well.
Emma couldn't contain her happiness as she saw Mulan coming down the path. "Here's that chance!" Emma whispers quickly leaping off the bench to meet the new companion. "Hello!" Emma waves kindly trying to somewhat tone down her mood. Hook tries to stop the crazy blonde, but hesitates on getting her back. Mulan looked over with her serious countenance for a moment, then smiled without hesitation waving her hello back. The cold air tugged away the hot breaths both women made as they spoke with each other. Mulan slowed as she took he headphones out gasping a bit before asking, "Hi. Are you new here? I've never seen you before." Mulan asks her tone sounding different, it was curious, more curious than Emma would imagine. Something the old Mulan never conveyed. Her dark skin complemented her jet-black almost a dark blue tint locks as her cheeks and nose were slightly colored from the cold, and her running. Even though it was frigid cold, Mulan didn't shiver once, probably because her body was already hot from her workout. Mulan's strong body stood before Emma with alertness, but friendliness that Emma didn't expect, knowing Mulan was more of a hesitant and observing woman. The toned muscles flexed and somewhat became exposed from the tight fitted under-armor she wore as she crossed her arms addressing Emma with her attention. Even her dark brown eyes seemed intimidating and powerful. Emma could see why Aurora fell in love with the Warrior. Her presence alone was heavy and strong. "Yes, I just moved in today with my kids." Emma felt eager to present Jane to Mulan hoping she would immediately snap out of the curse. Emma turned toward the kids waving yelling out, "Henry! Jane!"
