Stolen Darkness

Chapter 29

Disclaimer::: I do not own OUAT or its characters, just my imagination. The time has finally come for Emma to meet her daughter and to confront her old foster family for what they put her through. This time she is not alone, she has her family behind her. On with the story… Sorry if it triggers anything unpleasant.

Emma sighed, having finally seen her daughter for the first time. Regina smiled at her wife. "She looks just like you baby." She murmured, she already loved Katie as her own even though they had yet to meet her.

Suddenly, they heard yelling coming from the house Katie had entered. Emma heard a girl yelling back defensively and heard what sounded like a slapping sound. Her eyes grew black as she got out of the car and stormed up to the house, her family at her heels. She put her hand on the doorknob, noticing it was unlocked. She then entered, and it was as if time was rewinding. She blinked a few times, reminding herself why she was there. She could hear Katie yelling and crying as slapping sounds continued. A man was shouting.

"You good for nothing useless bitch! You got detention again. You can forget about dinner!"

Emma recognized his voice, it was Derek. She growled softly as she stormed into the other room and grabbed his hand roughly as he was about to inflict more pain on her daughter. "Remember me? you bastard!"

Derek's eyes grew wide. "Emma? What the hell are you doing here?"

Her former foster brother, Caleb stood up. "Emma! Here for more?" He grabbed himself lewdly. Emma heard Maleficent growl at this.

Janie rolled her eyes. "Why did you come back? We almost lost everything because of you!"

Emma scoffed. "I came because you bastards lied to me about my baby! You raped me, you beat me, and you let all this shit happen. You let me think my daughter was dead. But then I find out you lied you bitch. You faked your pregnancy and stole my baby for yourself!"

Katie backed up, reeling from all this information. They were not her parents? They lied? She thought she was a freak and had been treated like one for so long. "What's she talking about?"

Derek sneered. "So what? You deserved it you whore. You had it coming you freak. You ran our electricity bill and caused a fire like your bitch whelp." He snarled.

Katie gasped as she looked over at the other blonde. She then could see how much she looked like her. It was too obvious. She then noticed the dark haired woman had pulled her gently back.

"Stay right here. We got this honey. It's going to be okay. Trust me." Regina assured her.

Katie nodded, swallowing the lump that had formed in her throat.

Emma gave him a truly dark look. "Really? You think so? You drugged me because you were afraid. While I was drugged, you raped me. But now, I am here to take my daughter home. You will not hurt her anymore. You will not get away with any of this." Her eyes were black and she moved to Janie, grabbed her by her throat. "Your bitch here pretended to be pregnant, intending to take my baby for herself. Now let's see how you can handle me now." Her eyes glowed inhumanly.

Derek gave a start. "What the fuck are you?"

Caleb looked nervous. "Should I get the tranq gun?" He hoped to use it on Emma again. He wasn't bright at all. He forgot that Emma was not alone anymore.

Maleficent growled as she grabbed Caleb right then and there. She could feel her dragon wanting out.

Caleb saw the look in her eyes and pretty much wet himself. He whimpered.

Emma laughed. "I'm your worst nightmare." Her hands turned to claws as she began to shift. Katie's eyes grew wide as she watched her mother with awe.

Derek reached for his hunting knife and began to jab at Emma.

Regina flicked her wrist and made the knife disappear. She smiled at Katie. "Sit tight dear. Soon we will have you out of here." She winked before she poofed out and appeared next to Derek in a purple cloud of smoke. Derek was startled. "What the fu…" Regina then put her hand into his chest and pulled his heart out with an evil smile in her face. Being that they were not in a land with magic, he dropped dead and Lily changed into a dragon and devoured him.

Emma laughed as Janie screamed. Emma then turned into a dragon. "You will never see my Katie again. You were never her mother to begin with." She took pleasure at devouring her, remembering the times Janie held her down while Derek and Caleb raped her and beat her. It was Janie who had kept her drugged.

Maleficent devoured Caleb next, glad they had gotten rid of any trace of them.

Emma looked at her daughter. At first she felt scared that her daughter would reject her for killing her tormentors. "Katie?" She whispered.

Katie blinked a few times, digesting everything she had witnessed or heard. For a long time, she'd had fantasies of making her parents suffer for the way they treated her. She had hated them with a passion. She'd thought of ways to kill them. She had even run away a few times. They had never raped her, but they had beat her and punished her. She had wished heroes were real. Hell she had even wished villains were real too. She had dark thoughts and had worried that there was something wrong with herself having these dark thoughts. "M-mom?" She tested the way it sounded on her tongue. She sighed heavily as it hit her hard. "Mom." She ran into Emma's arms and held on tightly to her. She held on, not wanting to let go of her anytime soon. It felt right being in her arms like this.

"Oh baby!" Emma kissed her head, inhaling deeply. "I love you! I'm so sorry I didn't know… I would have come sooner had I known." She stepped back slightly and put her hands on both sides of her face, memorizing her face. "You're so beautiful!"

Katie smiled, "I look like you." She had tears in her eyes. "You're taking me home with you?"

Regina smiled happily, seeing Katie and Emma reconnect as she joined them.

Emma chuckled softly. "Yes baby, you're coming home with us where you belong. This is Regina. She's my wife. This is Lily, she's my twin sister and your Aunt." Her eyes then twinkled as she looked at Maleficent. "And this is our mom, your grandmother, Maleficent."

Katie gasped. "Wait… She's… Maleficent? As in that Maleficent?"

Emma laughed softly. "How Often do you see people turn into dragons?" She winked. "Yes, that Maleficent."

Maleficent chuckled at her granddaughter. "Your mom is married to the Evil Queen, we have so much to teach you." She smiled.

Katie was shocked and surprised that Maleficent was real and so was the Evil Queen. "That explains why I always preferred villains."

Emma laughed. "Me too sweetheart." She winked.

Lily laughed. "Wait until you come home with us. Everything is not as it seems. Like the little riding hood fairy tale? Did you know her name is Ruby? And she is not helpless as depicted in those fairy tales. She's actually a werewolf." She grinned.

Emma chuckled. "Ruby is her wife so she is also your aunt." She explained.

"I have a sister too, half sister, named Zelena, she is the wicked witch of the west." Regina grinned.

Maleficent had a knowing smile on her face. "I don't know what you know about this… But your mother used to be a savior. that is until she saved her true love's life and became the Dark One."

"And you're pregnant. If she is your wife, who is the father?" Katie was curious.

Regina smiled. "I am. We also share another son. You Have a brother named Henry."

Emma smiled as she hugged her daughter. 'I know this can all be overwhelming. Regina is the father of these twins I am pregnant with. You will learn so many things about our family. But there is plenty of time for that. Let's go home. If There is anything you want to take with you, we can help you."

Katie smiled. "I don't need to pack too much. I would rather leave all the bad memories behind." She then packed one small suitcase and looked at her family. "I'm ready." She was more than ready to escape this life and to start a new one with her real family. She knew she had a lot to learn about everything and her heritage. She was just glad to be reunited with her mother. She could see how much her mom loved Regina. They seemed to bring out the best in each other. She hoped she would be able to find a love like that someday. As soon as the plane landed, she sat between her mom and Regina in the back seat as her aunt Lily drove. She couldn't help but to wonder what their story was and how things had happened to her mother in the past that led to the here and now.

Lily kept smiling as she looked at her niece and then at Emma. "I still remember when your mom found me and reunited me with my mother. Now she's been reunited with you Katie. But that's another story for later." She winked.
