CHAPTER 5

Killian and David were staring ahead at the four women in front of them. The Queens of Darkness, all dressed in their Enchanted Forest clothes, and Emma wearing a curve hugging light blue dress with a plunging neckline and a long trail behind it with fake little flowers embodied on it. She also wore a white necklace which outlined the top curves of her breast.

It had been two weeks since Emma had gone under the curse. Two weeks since anyone in the town had properly slept. The other villains' attacks were terrible too but they always had the Savior to save them. Now the Savior was on the other side and the townspeople needed saving from her.

Belle, Will, Snow, and Regina had spent hours after hours in the library, Regina's vault, Gold's shop, and anywhere they could do some research or just experiments in order to break the curse. Since the attempted True Love's Kiss hadn't worked between Emma and Killian (everyone was extremely disappointed since they were sure that they were True Love), they were looking for another way to break it. David and Killian on the other hand had spent every waking hour trying to track the villains and Emma down. Sometimes they found the Queens of Darkness only for them to poof away but they hadn't yet found the mastermind behind them: Rumplestilstkin.

The second failed True Love's Kiss with Emma had taken a bad toll on Killian, though he never showed it. He hadn't properly slept, ate, or done anything these past two weeks. They were worse than the Missing Year since then he wasn't even exactly sure about Emma's feelings, but now he knows that he has won her heart and has now lost her this way. He doesn't try to think much about the True Love thing and just revel in the fact that his Swan loves him. She might not have said it yet, but her actions tell him so. She doesn't love you. Killian ignores the voice of his subconscious which keeps telling him that the reason of the failed True Love's Kiss and her turning away when he confessed his love was that she never did love him. Maybe she only ever truly loved Neal and Killian was nothing but just a last resort to her. Stop it.

"Hook" Ursula seethed, her tentacles coming around his neck.

"Leave him, sea bitch" David commanded, pinching the tentacles with his sword to no success.

"Chiseled chin, don't interrupt" Cruella said, smoothing her fur coat.

"See since the time I saw you walking hand in hand with our lovely Emma in these ridiculous clothes-" Ursula said.

"I think he was going for the biker look, darling" Cruella interrupted, sizing Hook up.

"He is very pretty to the eyes isn't he?" Maleficient smirked.

"That's the only good thing about him. Otherwise he's just a broody, self-loathing and self-obsessed alcoholic pirate with one hand who was obsessed over the death of a wench. Oops – she was Rumple's wife" Emma said, running her fingers through her blond curls.

"Yes, yes. Quite the interesting scandal it was! Oh I might like you Captain" Cruella said, "stealing Short Stuff's wife. That's nice"

"Can we get back to the point?" Ursula snapped, her tentacles reaching down on Killian's waist and another one holding David as well as his sword was ticklish.

"Sorry darling, I kind of like the Captain. If he agrees to work with us, we might make the whiny short little bitch cry. He takes too much pride on being the Dark One but he's nothing but a short whiny little bitch who cries over his maid leaving him for another" Cruella said and once she got a death glare from her friend, turned around to stand beside Maleficient.

"If we had met a couple of years ago, wolfy bitch, I would have loved to skin the crocodile and you could make yourself a coat out of it" Killian said, with no emotion in his voice. He was rewarded with a smile from Cruella.

"ANYWays, cutting the crap, of course I want revenge on you so Maleficient has kindly agreed to put a curse on you. The specialty of this curse is that it is like poison - much like the one that killed your brother. You will die a slow and painful death. Enjoy your last few days Killian Jones because in a couple of days your miserable life will be over" Ursula said, a hint of sadness in her voice.

"NOOOOO" David screamed, squirming in order to break from the hold of the tentacles while Killian just stood at his spot. No sarcasm, no witty comeback, no innuendo, nothing. He just stared at Emma who stared back with nothing but disgust on her face.

Maleficent lifted her shaft and Killian felt a pain slice through his entire body making him scream at the top of his lungs. Ursula retreated her tentacles and Killian fell on the floor, David immediately kneeling beside him while holding his upper body in his lap. They both looked up at Emma who stared right back at him with a blank expression. There was no concern or love in her eyes, but so wasn't any disgust or anger. For a second Killian actually let himself hope that maybe now Emma's going to come back, maybe her subconscious will kick in and make her break out of the curse so she could at least give her boyfriend a nice good-bye. Maybe she could tell him that she loves him before he dies.

Within seconds, the four women disappeared in a haze of smoke while Killian laid on the cold ground with David who was frantically calling Regina for help. The last ray of hope from Killian in hearing the three words from Emma gone. She doesn't love me was the last thought Killian had before the darkness took him and everything went blank.

Notes:

- I was orginally gonna do it in a way that Killian gets cursed while trying to save Henry but after the episode (it was amazing, wasn't it?) I just made Ursula take her revenge. Plus, the connection between a mother and a son is VERY strong and we know that Emma and Henry are True Love so I just couldn't imagine her being ok with even the possibility of Henry being hurt.

- Maybe I'll write an alternative chapter where Killian gets cursed trying to save Henry? Should I?

- Thank you for the lovely reviews! I love each and every one of you:)
