Emma and Killian both lose their memories in this one and the gang has to go find them.

Red red wine

Henry Daniel Mills, was a great many things, he was the truest believer, he was the author, and he was the son of two very different mother's. Henry loved both his mom's, and it meant the world to him to have both of them in his life. It had been hard for Henry at first because his mom's had fought over him all the time, but now they not only shared custody of Henry equally, they were also good friends. Everything with Henry's mother's would be perfect if it weren't for one problem, one of his mother's was MIA.

Emma had been missing for several months, it had happened when they had finally managed to defeat Mr. Hyde. The villain had caused an extraordinary amount of trouble in Storybrooke (with the help of the Evil Queen) for nearly a year before they'd finally found a way to stop both of them. They had used the Holy Grail to permanently destroy Hyde and the Evil Queen forever, destroying the two villains had been hard. Hyde and Queen had been trying to use dark magic that would suck the entire town into the river of lost souls in the Underworld. However, what Hyde and Queen hadn't counted on was that the dark magic they used may have allowed them to open a portal into the river of lost souls, but the dark magic didn't allow them to control or direct the souls in the river.

It had been the spirits of Henry's grandmother Milah, Dorothy's Auntie Em, and even (to everyone's surprise) David's brother James who had really helped defeat Hyde and Queen. The spirits from the river of lost souls had turned against the two of them. With their help Emma and Regina had been able to use the Holy Grail to defeat Hyde and Queen and close the portal into the Underworld (again). Once Hyde and Queen were defeated the spirits from the river of the lost souls were able to move on, not all of them where able to move on to a better place (Gaston and Peter Pan being obvious examples), but they had moved on and Storybrooke was safe.

That had been a truly great moment, but none of them had counted on what happened right after. Apparently, by opening the portal and then using the Holy Grail to close it they had actually ended up bringing Robin Hood back from the dead. Mother Superior had explained that the reason it had happened was because Robin was killed with the crystal, then Henry used the crystal and the grail to temporarily banish magic. After that Regina had destroyed the crystal when they came back to Storybrooke, and finally the Holy Grail had been used to destroy Queen and Hyde when they opened the portal to the Underworld.

These events had created a magical connection between Storybrooke, the Holy Grail, the Underworld, and then to Robin himself. Regina of course hadn't cared how Robin had come back, just that he had. Of course everyone had worried the magic might bring Hades back as well, but Mother Superior said that couldn't happen because as a god Hades had a different connection to the crystal than a person. Hades had truly been destroyed for good. All of this would have been absolutely fabulous news if it weren't for the fact that Queen had one last trap left behind.

Queen had set-up a magical booby trap that would activate at the moment of her death (the same way Zelena's pendant had activated when Rumplestiltskin 'killed' her). The trap had let out a blast of magic that had headed straight for Henry. Queen had known the worst thing she could possibly do to Regina was to take Henry away from her forever. When the magic had come flying at Henry Emma and Killian had both rushed forward and knocked Henry out of the way of the spell taking the blast for themselves.

The blast of dark magic had sent Killian and Emma away from Storybrooke, and they hadn't been able to find them since. Zelena and Regina had used magic to take Robin back to Sherwood Forest to find Roland and bring him back to Storybrooke. The trip back to the forest had also been a quest for them to hopefully try and find something that could lead them to Emma and Killian. The three of them had visited the witch of Dunbroch and she had been able to give them a talisman that could be used to find anyone no matter where they were. The talisman had been the perfect way to find Emma and Killian, the only problem was getting it activated.

Apparently, like all things involving the witch of Dunbroch, the talisman didn't just work on its own. It also didn't do exactly what it was supposed to do exactly when you wanted it to do it. They had spent the last three months trying everything they could think of to get the stupid thing to work when it had finally happened. It had actually been Violet who'd thought of the solution, she had reminded all of them of the magic of Henry's story book and the connection it had to those who were written about in it. They had taken the story book onto the Jolly Roger, and once the talisman had touched the book the object had activated, and guided them to Emma and Killian, and now they were finally here.

Henry looked around in surprise. Of all the places he would have thought the talisman might had guided them to, the last place Henry had expected was an outdoor music festival in Denver Colorado of all places. Not that there was anything wrong with the city of Denver Colorado, it was just that Emma had no connection to the city (and obviously Killian didn't either). Henry had just assumed that the blast of magic would have sent his mom and Killian to someplace connected with his mom's past; like Boston, or New York, or even Arizona. As they walked along a stretch of green grass that led up to a moveable bandstand, Henry thought that maybe it made sense that the spell had sent his mom and Killian to someplace completely unexpected. After all, the entire point of the dark magic was to separate Emma and Killian from the people they loved, and the best way to do that was to send them someplace neither of them had any connection to.

They finally arrived at the concert, the whole place was roped off with those moveable metal fences. In front of the fences there were a set of podiums made out of cardboard where people were buying tickets or scanning tickets they'd bought in advance and printed off their computers.

As they walked up to the podium Henry heard Robin groan while his Grandpa said, "Damn it. How are we going to find them in this?"

Henry looked out over the space and gave his own groan, they had arrived at a large outdoor park. It was huge open grassy space, swarming with people dancing in front of the moveable stage. It looked to Henry like the entire city was out there, some were sitting in chairs or on blankets, but most were up dancing, it was huge mass of people. Henry clutched the talisman tighter in his fist, "This is going to lead us to them. I know it will."

Henry's mom Regina used magic to conjure tickets for them all and they head into the concert space Snow said, "I think maybe we should start by walking along the outside of the crowd, and get a good overview before we start mingling in."

David nodded, "Might be our best bet."

As Henry clutched the talisman tightly in his hand he felt it vibrate, the way it had been doing ever since it had activated. Henry hoped that the talisman would do something more to guide them directly to Killian and his mom, but until that happened Henry figured following his grandmother's advice was the best option. They all turned to the right and began to walk up towards the stage keeping to the outside of the crowd, as they did the band started to play a new song:

Red, red wine
Goes to my head
Makes me forget that I...still need her so.

Henry kept looking back and forth over the crowd trying to spot a particular mane of blonde hair, or a familiar flash of a messy black head, but none of the people really stood out to him. Beside Henry Robin bent down and picked Roland up to carry him so the little boy wouldn't accidentally get hurt or get lost.

Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
Memories won't go, memories won't go.

They kept moving to the right in the same direction and all of them scanned the crowd, Regina muttered, "Maybe I should use magic to try and track them."

Snow shook her head, "No Regina, it's too risky with all these people here."

Regina shrugged, "We could just put it off as a concert stunt."

Henry could see the others thinking about it when it happened, the talisman clutched in his fits started to feel warm. Henry grinned, "Mom, thanks for the offer, but I don't think that'll be necessary." The others turned to him and Henry raised his fist, "This, is leading us to them." Henry turned to his right and headed into the mass of people. The music continued to play as they moved:

I'd have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, now I find
Just one thing makes me forget:

Henry carefully moved in the same direction, he could feel the talisman getting warmer, Henry came across a group of three couples dancing in the same area so he turned to the left to move around the huge blob of people. The others turned and followed Henry, making sure they stayed as close as they could.

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart...my blue, blue heart.

As Henry turned to the left and began to move deeper into the crowd the talisman started getting colder. Henry realized that he was going the wrong way and looped around to the right again. Henry felt the talisman start to warm again. As Henry moved back to the right he muttered a few apologies to people as he bumped into them and accidentally stepped on a few different pairs of feet.

Red, red wine, you make me feel so fine
You keep me rockin' all of the time
Red, red wine, you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollar when you're just in my hand
Red, red wine, you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go, it make me feel bad
Red, red wine, you make me feel so fine
Monkey back and ease up on the sweet deadline.

With the line 'sweet deadline' the talisman got warmer and warmer. Henry instantly tried to move faster, but David grabbed his arm, "Henry, I know you want to get to Emma right away, but we can't risk getting separated, you need to stay with us."

Henry sighed, as much as he wanted to run right to his mom he knew his grandpa was right. Henry nodded and slowed up again, then as they turned back to the left two people moved and Henry stopped so quickly that David bumped right into him, "Henry, what? OH!" David gaped as he saw why Henry had frozen in place. Emma and Killian were standing right in front of them. Emma had her arms around Killian's neck, with her head resting on his shoulder, while Killian had his arms around Emma's waste with his chin on top of her head and his hook easily visible.

Regina said, "Well we found them? Now what?"

Henry bit his lip as he watched the two sway to the music. Henry knew he needed to get his mom and Killian away from the crowd so they could all talk, but he wasn't sure how to do it. Henry searched for an idea as the song continued to play.

Red, red wine)
Red, red wine, you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing; you make me do my own thing
(It's up to you...)
Red, red wine, you give enough of love
You're a kind of lovin' like a blessing from above
Red, red wine, I loved you right from the start
Right from the start, with all of my heart
Red, red wine in an eighties style
Red, red wine in a modern beat style
Yeah.

Along with the line 'Modern beat style yeah.' Henry looked around, and his eyes settled on Roland, a great idea suddenly popped into Henry's head, "I think I know what to do."

Henry walked over to Robin and Roland and said, "Robin, can I take Roland?"

Robin looked confused, but said, "Well of course, but why?"

Henry grinned at him, "Because I have an idea." Henry looked down and said, "Roland, I need you to help me with a new operation."

Roland's eyes widened as he smiled broadly, "Really?"

Henry said, "Yes, o.k., here's what I need you to do." Henry thought about it and said, "I need you to look sad."

Roland instantly dropped his eyes and stuck his lip out. Henry said, "That's perfect."

The others in the group had looked confused, but he saw realization dawn on his mom and grandma's faces as they heard Henry talk to Roland.

Henry said, "Now, do you think you can cry?"

Roland look back at him, and Henry could see he wasn't sure how to make himself cry. Henry didn't want to hurt Roland, but he needed to come up with something, "Try to remember how you felt when you went back to Sherwood with Little John."

Roland instantly started to cry.

Henry said, "Thanks Roland, now I need you to whine."

Roland looked confused, "Whine?"

Henry nodded, "Yeah, start saying, 'daddy I want my daddy.'"

Roland bit his lip and said, "like this, Daddy, I want my daddy. Daddy, where's Daddy?" He said with a classic pitiful little kid whine.

Henry nodded, "Yes, now keep that up until I tell you 'it's going to be o.k.' got it?"

Roland said, "Got it."

Henry walked towards his mom and Killian as he held Roland in his arms, as they walked away Robin said, "should I be concerned?"

David said, "I don't think so. Henry and Roland both have good hearts."

Robin turned to look at him, "That doesn't mean either of them is against manipulating other people."

Snow moved forward, "well, we can keep an eye on them and make sure they don't"

Regina rested a hand on his shoulder, "They'll be fine."

Robin relaxed a little as Henry and Roland made their way to Killian and Emma as the song continued to play.

(I'd have sworn...)
Give me a little time, let me clear out my mind
(That with time)
Give me a little time, let me clear out my mind
(Thoughts of you would leave my head)
Give me red wine, the kind make me feel fine
You make me feel fine all of the time
Red, red wine, you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him Rizla pon the sweet Dep line
The line broke, the monkey get choked
Bunbah, ganjapani, little rubber boat.

Henry carefully made his way over to his mom as he held a crying Roland in his arms, Henry ran his hand up and down Roland's back saying, "We'll find him Buddy, I promise we will."

As they walked closer Henry called out, "Dad! Dad!"

Trying to make sure his voice was loud enough to get Emma and Killian's attention without causing the music to stop completely.

(Red, red wine)
Red, red wine, I'm gonna hold on to you
Hold on to you 'cause I know you love truth
(Stay close to me)
Red, red wine, I'm gonna love you 'til I die
Love you 'til I die, and that's no lie
(Don't let me be alone)
Red, red wine, can't get you off my mind
Wherever you may be, I'll surely find
(It's tearing apart...)
I'll surely find
Make no fuss
(My blue heart) -
Just stick with us.

Henry walked right next to Emma along with the line 'just stick with us' and his call combined with Roland's tears caused Killian and Emma to stop dancing and pull apart. Henry saw Emma's face soften slightly as she caught sight of them, Emma walked over to the two of them and asked, "Hey are you guys lost?"

Henry gave his mom his patented puppy dog eye look and nodded, "Yeah, we got separated, and now we can't find our family."

Emma said, "It'll be alright, we can help you."

Killian stepped forward, "Absolutely. There's a security booth, right over there, and they should be able to assist you locating your parents." Killian pointed to a large blue ten with a bunch of folding tables underneath, the sign above the tent did read 'security'. Henry sighed in relief, "Great, thanks."

Henry looked back over the crowd and caught his other mom's eyes then jerked his head towards the both. Regina looked towards it then nodded her head in understanding. Regina grabbed Robin's hand and began leading everyone towards the security booth whispering in Robin's ear and making sure to out-pace them.

(I'd have sworn...)
Give me a little time, let me clear out my mind
(That with time)
Give me a little time, let me clear out my mind
(Thoughts of you would leave my head)
Give me red wine, the kind make me feel fine
You make me feel fine all of the time
Red, red wine, you make me feel so fine
Monkey back and ease up on the sweet deadline
The line broke, the monkey get choked
Bunbah, ganjapani, little rubber boat.

As they walked to the booth Henry said, "Don't worry, it's going to be o.k."

Roland stopped whining at this, but still kept the sad lost look on his face. It took everything Henry had not to applaud, Roland couldn't be doing better. Emma said, "My name's Lisa, and this is George, what are your names?"

Henry answered honestly, "I'm Henry and this is Roland."

Emma and Killian both turned to look at them, Henry hoped, maybe this meant they would remember. The Talisman Henry was still clutching was vibrating warmly in his hand as they walked to the security booth. Emma asked, "so, you came with your family?"

Henry nodded, "Yeah, our parents brought us to the concert, it's been really fun, and things were going great, until we got separated that is." Henry ducked his head in false embarrassment as the song played:

(Red, red wine)
Red, red wine, you give me not awful love
You're a kind of lovin' like a blessing from above
(Stay close to me)
Red, red wine, I loved you right from the start
Right from the start, with all of my heart
(Don't let me be alone)
Red, red wine, you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing; you make me do my own thing
Red, red wine in an eighties style
Red, red wine in a modern beat style
Yeah.

Emma said, "Yeah, I've lost people at big places and events before, and it's never fun."

Henry said turned back to them, "Sorry to ruin your night, you looked like you were really enjoying yourselves."

Emma said, "You didn't ruin our night, and yes this song is our song, but we've danced to it before and we will again."

"Your song?" Henry probed

Killian grinned, "Yes, the very first song we ever danced to. It's our song."

Henry said, "I know how that goes, my girlfriend and I, our song is Only You, by Vince Clarke."

Emma looked up and turned curiously toward him, "Only you?" She said in surprise.

Henry nodded hoping the song might help jog her memory because of his dad as they made it to the security booth the band finished.

Red, red wine, you make me feel so fine
You keep me rockin' all of the time
(Red red wine)
Red, red wine, you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollars when you just in my hand
(Stay close to me)
Red, red wine, you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go...

Once the music ended Emma starred curiously at Henry, "I know this is going to sound strange, but have we met before? You look really familiar."

Henry had to fight to keep from jumping with glee, this was good sign. Henry decided to push it, "Yeah, we definitely have."

Emma and Killian continued to look curiously at them as Henry slipped a hand behind his back and silently flagged down his other mom, who he had seen standing on the other side of the booth. A moment later Regina and Robin came running up to them with Regina shouting, "Henry! Roland! Thank goodness."

Henry instantly handed Roland off to Robin as David and Snow came up behind them, Regina pulled Henry into a hug, "We were so worried."

Henry said, "We're o.k. mom, this is Lisa and George, they helped us out."

Robin walked over and shook Killian's hand saying, "Many thanks."

Killian looked at Robin curiously, then he blinked a few times, "Ah, yes, sure no problem."

In the mean time Emma walked up to Regina and said, "You're Henry's mother?"

Regina nodded, "Yes, Regina Mills."

Emma blinked, "I've heard that name before." Emma closed her eyes searching for the memory, "I'm just not sure when or where."

Henry gave his mom a brief thumbs up as David and Snow came walking over, Snow said, "Oh, thank goodness you found them."

Emma turned at the sound of Snow's voice and she and Killian both starred. This time Killian spoke, "I don't know if it's just something in the air or something I drank, but I'm having the strangest sense of déjà vu here."

Emma said, "So am I."

The others all brightened hearing Emma and Killian say those words, Henry said, "You know, I think we can help with that."

Emma turned to Snow and David, "What are your names?" She asked curiously, sounding like she already had suspicions.

Snow looked pensive before answering, "This is David, and I'm Snow."

Killian did his classic eyebrow raise, "Snow?"

Snow straightened her shoulders and said, "Yes?" in a tone that dared him to say something about her name being unusual.

Killian grinned nervously, "A lovely name for a lovely lady."

Emma meanwhile was starring back and forth between her parents and her son, "We know all of you don't we?"

Killian turned back and studied the group along with Emma saying, "Yes, I believe that we do."

Emma turned back to Regina, "You all come from a town called Storybrooke don't you?"

Snow gasped in delight as Regina said, "Yes we do."

Emma shook herself, "How did I know that?"

Snow answered this time, "Because you're from Storybrooke as well, you live there it's your home."

Emma's brow wrinkled with confusion, "No, that can't be right."

Killian scratched nervously behind his ear, "there's a house there, it's light grey."

Emma added, "And the library has a clock tower on top of it."

Emma shook her head, "What's going on?"

Killian looked apprehensive, "I don't know."

Henry took this as his cue and stepped forward, "look, I know this seems weird, but you're not going crazy. We can explain everything."

Emma looked really shocked at this, "You can?"

David stepped forward, "Yes, we can explain everything, you just have to be willing to believe."

Emma blinked at him, "Believe?" she said the word like she was searching for something beyond it.

Killian turned to David and Snow and said, "I think we just might do that."

Emma turned back to him, "Are you sure?"

Killian nodded, "Yes, we need to see this through, whatever this is and where ever it may lead, we need to follow it to the end."

Emma bit her lip and turned back to them, "Let's go."

Henry said, "Awesome."

David led them out of park and towards a side street that led to a series of small shops, they ducked into small coffee shop and sat at a small table in the back. Emma and Killian sat with their backs to the door and looked around at all of them, "O.k., what's going on?" Emma asked shortly, "How is it you all seem familiar, and we know all these things about you, but we've never met any of you before?"

David answered, "It's a long story, and it is a bit complicated. Why don't we start simple? How about the two of you tell us about yourselves."

They all saw Emma and Killian looking nervous and unsettled, so David added, "It doesn't have to be everything about yourselves just a little."

The other two still looked hesitant so Snow stepped up, "How about if we start then?"

Emma and Killian relaxed a bit so she went on, "Like David said, my name is Snow, the two of us have been married for several years and we have two children. When our oldest daughter was born, something really bad happened in the place where we used to live, and even though we didn't want to we had to send our daughter Emma away."

Emma raised her eyebrows as her mouth fell open, "I'm so sorry."

Snow nodded, "It was probably one of the hardest things we ever had to do. Eventually we came to Storybrooke our daughter found us, we had to send her away for her own safety a second time, but she came back again. Now we're all together as a family, we have another child our son."

"Neal." Emma interrupted, "His name is Neal."

David looked ecstatic and Henry was practically bouncing in his seat, "Yes" David said.

Killian turned to David, "Your son was named after someone, someone who had once gone by another name."

"Baelfire." David answered, "Most people just called him…."

"Bae." Killian answered, "his name was Bae, he had dark hair and brown eyes. How the Hell do I know that?"

This time Henry answered, "Because both of you knew him."

Henry reached into his bag and pulled out his story book and slid it across the table, "Baelfire or Neal was my dad." Henry pointed to Killian, "You knew him when he was a kid." Then he pointed to Emma, "And you, dated him."

Emma blanched, "What?"

Henry said, "it's true." Henry pointed to Regina, "This is my adopted mom, and you." Henry pointed to Emma, "Are my birth mom, and Neal was my dad. I know you don't remember everything, but you can, and this can help you."

Emma and Killian both reached over and grabbed the story book, Henry flipped it open and turned it to the page of the two of them dancing at King Midus' ball. Henry opened his hand and held the talisman on top of the book, not sure what would happen. A moment later they had the answer. There was a flash of light that blew over all of them. Because of the concert, there weren't a lot of people in the coffee shop, but the few who were there all turned. Everyone looked around nervously before David stood, "Ah, sorry about that everyone, we are performers, and we were practicing our newest act. Didn't mean to bother you."

Everyone relaxed, most of them applauded as Emma and Killian both starred at the rest of them, Emma spoke first, "Henry?" she breathed in a short gasp.

Henry felt tears in his eyes, "Hi Mom."

Emma practically lunged across the table and grabbed him in a crushing hug, "Henry!" then she turned to her parents, "Mom, Dad."

Meanwhile Killian sat there gaping at the man sitting across from him, "Robin?" He asked cautiously.

The thief smiled at him, "Yes."

Killian reached forward and grasped Robin's hand then pulled him into a one armed hug, as the two pulled back Emma starred, "How?" she asked.

Robin explained, "It was a side effect of Hyde and the Queen being vanquished, the connection between the Holy Grail, the Olympian crystal, and then the Underworld being opened allowed me to come back."

Emma shook her head, "That's incredible."

Killian grinned, "Damn good to see you again mate."

Snow and David both pulled Killian into a hug of their own as Emma gave Robin a hug as well. Soon everyone was trading hugs and greetings. Eventually they all sat down and Snow asked, "So what happened to the two of you?"

Killian said, "After the battle there was a flash of light, the two of us awoke Rose Hospital."

Emma nodded, "We were told we'd been in card accident, but there were no casualties. Just like when Regina sent us to New York we had a completely different set of memories, I thought my name was Lisa Myers and that I had moved to Colorado because I got a new job working as a bank manager."

The others gaped as Regina asked, "Bank manager?"

Emma nodded, "Yeah, I know definitely not my thing, but the fake memories I had gave me all the information I needed. I've been working as a manager of a local Wells Fargo branch, and I've been doing really well."

Regina turned to Killian, "What about you guy liner? Did your fake memories make you think you were an engineer?"

Killian shook his head, "Actually, your majesty, I've been teaching mathematics at a prestigious local private school."

Henry gaped at him, "You were a math teacher?"

Killian nodded, "Aye, but unlike Emma's false profession, mathematics is something I have a great deal of experience in. After all, it's not possible to be a Naval officer without knowledge of mathematics, and it's especially not possible to navigate without significant mathematical skills"

Henry piped up, "Yeah, that's true, I mean Killian taught me a lot about sailing and navigating and all of it takes a lot of math. Plus, he helps me with my math homework all the time."

David blinked, "Oh, that makes sense."

Emma said, "Anyways, like I said we work up in the hospital thinking we had been in an accident and that we were a couple who had met each other in Chicago and moved here. We were told that the U-haul we were driving burst into flames and all of our stuff was destroyed so we had to start from scratch with nothing. I thought I was single woman, whose parents both died in a fire when I was three years old."

Killian said, "And I thought I was a man who had been born in England, then moved to America after the subway bombing attack that occurred 11 years ago. I believed my family had been killed in the attack and I moved out of the country to start fresh, I met Lisa." Killian gestured to Emma, "at a symposium in Chicago, we fell in love and then moved here together."

Killian shook his head, "It's strange how real it all seemed, and now we know it isn't the slightest bit true."

Emma sighed, "How are we going to explain that we are quitting our jobs and moving out of town right away?"

Snow said, "Well, can't you just tell them you've recently discovered your extended family and your moving away to be with them and get to know them better?"

Emma blinked, then she turned to Snow and grinned, "I could do one better than that. I could say, that before I had a sister, and after our parents died we were split up by the system. I've just reunited with her and now I'm moving closer to her so we can really be a family"

Snow giggled, "I like that."

Killian added, "And I'm leaving to be with Emma. It'll take some time to get things in order, but we should manage it. Do you lot mind staying while we get our affairs in order?"

Henry asked, "Really? Awesome, I've always wanted to see more of the world, but because of the curse I couldn't."

Robin added, "I certainly would enjoy seeing the famous redwood forests that Bell told me so much about."

Regina shrugged, "Sure it'll be fun."

David called Storybrooke to let everyone know what was going on and they all headed back to Emma and Killian's house. The two of them had bought a small four bedroom ranch house, and soon they were all sitting around the table talking in Emma and Killian's kitchen and catching up. All in all it was a great night, and it meant the world to Henry to see his family together again.

Emma threw a Pizza in the oven and as they cleaned up after she asked, "So what about Zelena?"

Regina said, "she's in Storybrooke with little Robin, she didn't want to leave the baby behind, and she didn't like the idea of traveling who knows where with a newborn."

Killian added, "that makes sense."

Emma added, "Yeah, I don't think I'd want to take that risk either."

Soon enough everyone was in a bedroom asleep and Emma and Killian were cuddled in their own room, "You would think after all the different curses I'd be used to walking up with new memories, but I'm not. It still feels kind of weird."

Killian snorted, "I agree with you on that love, it is quite throwing, and were in for a very odd couple of days."

Emma started to drift off, "To say the least"

The next morning both of them gave notice at their jobs, neither place liked the idea of not getting a two week notice, but Emma and Killian were both able to use their curse memories, and their experience over the last three months to find suitable replacements in a short period of time. They put their house up for sale, and used magic to pack up their possessions. Most of what they had would be sold because they wouldn't need the furniture and other things in Storybrooke, but it would look to weird if they just sold all of their possessions all at once. Moreover, it would have been difficult to sell so many items in such a short period of time.

Even though everything was hectic they still managed to spend a lot of time reconnecting with their family. They drove down and visited the red woods Robin wanted to see so badly, and all enjoyed a day in the woods (Snow was also captivated by gorgeous tress) and took a few trips up into the mountains on trails. Eventually, everything was ready and they all boarded a plane back to Storybrooke after Emma and Killian made arrangements to have their belongings driven to a nearby town where they could pick everything up. No one wanted to risk bringing someone into Storybrooke and having something bad happen to the drivers.

As they drove into the town from the airport Emma felt herself relax as they went past the 'welcome' sign, "Nice to be back."

Killian squeezed her hand, "It is indeed."

As soon as the car was parked they found themselves accosted by the entire town, welcoming them back and saying how much they missed them. It wasn't long before they settled into a traditional party at Granny's and as Emma sat beside Killian in her usual booth she instantly felt exhaustion creep on her, it had been a very long and draining bunch of days and all of it was now hitting her at once.

Emma yawned, "It's good to be back."

Killian dropped a kiss onto her head, "Welcome home love."

Emma tilted her head up and kissed his cheek, "Welcome home pirate. We should probably get going soon, I'm getting tired, and I don't want to sleep in the diner."

Killian pointed out, "We could just rent a room for the night."

Emma snorted, "We live eight blocks away."

Killian said, "fair point."

The two of them rose and said there good-byes, when David saw how tired Emma was he insisted on driving them home, refusing to take no for an answer. It was probably a good thing that David was so determined because Emma ended up falling asleep in the car on the way back and Killian (not wanting to wake her) simply lifted her into his arms and carried her inside. Once they were both safely settled in bed Killian pulled Emma close and whispered to himself, "Home." And he knew that it really was.

That's for now? Any thoughts? BTW, if you haven't figured it out yet each chap will have its own song
