Chapter Twenty-Six

Emma jolted forward, stumbling to the ground, her hands reaching out for something to hold onto, but only finding air. "Whoa, love." Killian dropped down next to her, one hand on her back, the other steadying himself as they swayed slightly. "Are you alright?" He helped her sit up. He noted the floor was hard wood. They were no longer at the station. At the moment he wasn't quite sure where they'd landed.

She laughed a little as she fell back, "Yeah, I just, lost my footing and," she glance down. She wasn't in jeans and boots. Instead she was in leather riding pants and black leather boots. "Killian" she murmured, looking over at him. Her husband was in his black leather pants, his leather coat wrapped around. Her blood boiled slightly as she took him in. The earring back on, the necklace she loved to tug at around his neck, his rings in place and the liner making his eyes even bluer. He was her pirate again. She beamed, "Look at what we're wearing." She murmured.

"Captain! Emma!" Feet pounded towards them, "We're back!" Smee cried out.

Killian looked around, finally noting they were outside and they were rocking because they were in the middle of the sea. They were, indeed, aboard the Jolly Roger. "We're back." He grinned, straightening and pulling Emma up. "We need to determine where we are and get back to port." He ordered as his crew assembled. "It's time to go home, don't you agree?" He glanced down at his wife.

Emma's eyes were brimming with tears, "Please, get us home." She nodded.

"Grandma?" Henry looked around as he slid out of his chair.

"Henry!" Snow cried out, "Ava!" She wrapped them both in her arms, "David?"

"I'm here, Snow. We're all okay." David pulled them into a hug.

"We're in the War Room!" Leroy cried out, "We didn't die!" He pumped his fist in the air, just as the door opened.

"I told you we wouldn't die." Dr. Victor Frankenstein, who'd been staying at the palace, crossed his ankles together as he leaned in the doorway.

"Victor." Snow shook her head fondly, "Oh, where is Roland? And Skylar? Are they okay?"

"Roland is right here." Robin watched as his son ran ahead to bound into Snow's arms. "Where's Regina? And Zelena? They weren't with me. We landed in the nursery, where I was when the curse hit." Robin explained.

Snow bit her lip, "I have no idea." She glanced up at David, "We'd already put Regina in that lamp. You don't think"

"I have no idea. I think we should search the palace." David agreed.

"What about Zelena?" Leroy asked worriedly. "What if we all die!"

"Oh, for the love of," Victor snorted, "please stop already!"

"Regina has her heart, she can't do anything really." Robin explained, "And the pendant, too, so she has no magic." He worried his lip for a moment, "If she's in that lamp"

"We'll find her, Robin. I promise." Snow assured him, "Now, let's split up and search the castle."

Henry's head fell to the side, "Where was she last before you sent her to the land without magic?" He asked.

"The dungeon." David and Snow answered together. Robin was off before anyone could even make the suggestion that they check there.

"With the winds in our favor, we'll be back in port in just a few hours." Orson confirmed.

Emma wrapped her arms around Killian's waist and glanced up at him, her eyes twinkling. "A few hours, huh?"

Orson rolled his eyes, "Go, enjoy yourselves. We can handle the ship."

"We don't" Killian began.

"Thank you, Orson." Emma tugged on his hand, "Come on, Killian. It's been two years." She reminded him.

He grinned and scooped her up, tossing her over his shoulder. She let out a loud peal of laughter, "Too right, love. Thank you, gentlemen. We'll below. Please don't need us." He grinned as he pushed open the door to his cabin, setting her down before he pushed up against it, flicking the bolt in place. "I've missed you, love." He dropped his forehead to hers.

Emma sighed, nudging his nose with hers, reaching up to tangle her fingers through his hair, "I know, me too." She yanked on his hair, tugging his lips down to hers. He nipped on her bottom lip, tugging it between his teeth, grinning at the moan it elicited. Her hands moved down from his hair to slip under the shoulders of his jacket, shoving it off his shoulders. Her's followed a moment later.

They were a flurry of grabbing hands and clacking teeth as they tried to strip each other without disconnecting their bodies. When Emma found herself on her back, Killian hovering over her, she reached up and wrapped her fingers in his necklace, "Make love to me, Killian." She requested softly.

His hands slid up her side, fingers grazing over the light stretch marks left from Henry and Ava. His lips moved across her face, landing on the spot where her collarbone and neck met. Her back arched and she let out a breathy sigh of his name, her legs coming up to wrap around his hips, trying to draw him into her. "Patience." He murmured, his lips continuing on the path down the valley of her breasts. He latched onto one nipple, teasing it into a hardened peak before switching to it's twin.

His hand slid down her stomach, finding her slick and wet and wanting. "Gods, Killian." He arched into his touch. "Later, just now, please." She murmured.

His head rose to hover her above hers, "Later I will take my time with you." He warned her darkly.

She nodded, her fingers raking through his chest hair, "Later, just" she let out a tiny mewl when his thumb pressed down on the sensitive bundle over nerves, "please?" She asked.

He brought his hand up, sucking his fingers into his mouth as he watched her eyes darken even more at his actions before he slid into her. She was tight and hot and wet and his. "Bloody hell, love." His head dropped to her shoulder as he held himself above her.

Emma let out a moan, "Gods, Killian," she rocked her hips up, taking him even deeper into her body, "so good, just move."

He slid out before pushing back in at an agonizingly slow pace, "So tight, so good, love." He murmured, setting a steady pace for them. When they tumbled over the edge together, he wrapped his arms around his tiny wife.

"I've missed you." Emma murmured. "You were right there, but I still missed you." Her fingers danced up his arm. "I knew I was missing something, I just didn't know what."

"More like who." He corrected softly, tightening his grip on her. "I never want to be apart from you again. Not even for a short period of time."

Emma nuzzled her face into his neck, inhaling deeply, "I agree. Never again. And I don't want to be apart from the kids for a while either."

"Not for a good while. We'll just have to make sure the lock on our chamber door works well." He grinned down at her and she rolled her eye with a chuckle.

"We'll be back at port soon." She murmured.

"Aye, love, I should probably get topside to deliver orders." He agreed.

"Probably." She tightened her grip on him as she said it, though, tangling their limbs together even more.

"Smee and Orson can handle it, I'm sure." He pressed a kiss to her temple.

"Wouldn't be the first time they had to while we were down here." She pointed out. She felt Killian's returning chuckle rumble through his chest and she grinned. They were insatiable. Ever since they first gave into their attraction for one another. It was something she wouldn't trade for the world.

"Rest, love, we still have quite the journey ahead and there's no telling what the kingdom will look like once we reach port." He advised, watching as her eyes fluttered shut.

"Regina?" Robin called out, sprinting up the stone steps towards the dungeon.

"Robin?" She called back, "There's a protection spell on this cell. Please tell me you have a key!"

"Oh, thank God." Robin nearly fell against the bars of the cell. "You're alright?" He asked.

She moved to the door, "I'm fine. I just really want to get out of here."

"I was so afraid you'd be in that bloody lamp." He admitted. "I hadn't thought that was a possibility until we landed where we were before the curse."

She smiled softly at him, her fingers reaching out to stroke his cheek, "Me neither." She admitted, "I'm okay though."

"You're not okay, yet, but you will be in just a moment." Snow stepped forward. "You can have her all to yourself in a moment, but right now, I need to squeeze between the two of you." She rested a hand lightly on Robin's arm.

Reluctantly, he stepped back. "Thank you, Snow."

Snow smiled up at him, "Of course." Pulling a large brass key out of her pocket, she slipped it into the lock and turned, letting Regina out. "Now you're okay." She told Regina as the woman stepped out.

Regina smiled softly, "Thank you, Snow. I won't truly be okay until we find Zelena, though. Has anyone seen her?"

Snow shook her head, "No, where was she when the curse hit?"

David appeared in the doorway a moment later, "We checked the rest of the dungeon, she's not here."

"I think we need to scour the countryside for her." Regina waved her hand and changed her clothing into something far more appropriate for riding. "We best get started."
