This chapter is for LWolf007, for your support.
Today is the last official day of my break, after working all weekend my final semester will begin Monday and my time to write will be limited. I will try to keep up, but I might make this a bi-weekly or weekly updates instead of daily. I'll try and cover most days in one chapter if that is how it goes. Or not. We'll see this time next week how it works.
January 27th 2017
The day she had returned from Storybrooke was quiet. She'd called her boss and asked for some new cases, managing to be vague enough about how she had healed from her last case so quickly. She'd booked an initial appointment with the specialist Aceso for the next day, and had skyped Henry and Regina that evening. She'd purchased a herbal sleeping aid to try out, knowing a week of sleeping beside Regina had changed her whole sleep patterns.
They didn't work.
Emma decided to give up on sleep around 4am and prepare herself for her appointment. Her magic had been spotty at best after Killian had absorbed the darkness and Emma was no longer the dark one, and then after they'd returned from the Underworld unable to save him her emotions had caused a lull in her abilities, which wasn't improved after he come back. She believed that her magic had stopped working completely after Henry messed with the magic.
Her boss had emailed her a new case over night and so the blonde spent the time before dawn sat in her window nook with her laptop looking at her new cases' social media presence. Gathering ideas and making notes until the sun rose properly, she came up with a plan on how to start the case, before deciding to go for a run before her appointment. With it being just after 7am in January the weather was brisk but it made Emma run faster, and go further, happy that she was able to run the way she used to.
After her run she showered and made her way to downtown Boston, for her appointment, texting Gina as she waited to let her know she was thinking of her and wishing her a good day at work. She'd decided to only explain the whole situation to her girlfriend when she knew what the problem was and deemed she would only inform her parents if there was anything wrong, not wanting them to worry unnecessarily. She emerged a couple of hours later with the knowledge that it was either a physical problem that was blocking her magic, or something related to the constant realm hopping, with further appointments for tests over the next few weeks. She left the building no better but no worse about what was going on, deciding it was time to involve Regina in what was going on.
But how would she broach the subject?
Would love to hear your thoughts guys!
