Chapter 6: His Last Breath (1/3)
Characters: August, Emma, Henry, Gepetto
Genre: Angst
Rating: T
Notes: Whelp, I just made myself sad writing this. I've read some of the spoilers on tumblr and such, but it's too early to make assumptions on what's going to happen. All I know is that 2x18 is going to be an emotional roller-coaster, sigh...
"I'm sorry Emma, I..."
Those are the last words that fall from his lips before he collapses on the ground. Blue eyes slowly close, and the man who had just came back, dies before them. She can barely hear Gepetto sobbing beside her through the blood rushing in her ears.
Her hand is still tightly grasping the leather jacket on his shoulder and she can't help but feel a part of her died with him. It is only Henry who can brake her grip. Emma shakily stands up, wrapping an arm around him, silent tears streaming down her cheeks.
