As the cheering pirates pulled out the docks many soldiers were at the shore, attempting to get the tiara. Snow and David came to the shore to Emma surprise.
"Emma!" She heard snow yell.
"I am Captain Emma of the Jolly Roger. You will address me as so." Emma yelled back, sneering. Snow and David looked distressed. Emma turned to see a man with scruffy black hair and a black vest. He was a peasant.
"You killed my brother!" He screeched.
"I don't know who that would be, I have killed many, love." Emma sneered at the man's pained face.
"Captain Liam." He screamed because of the distance of him and the ship.
"Oh him?! He was weak and this baby we have of his-" Killian's face dropped. Snow and David watched their cruel daughter. "-Will be great randsom money. I think I'll name him Henry." She said with a devilish smile of her. The croud at the shore gasped.
"David we messed up." She said falling to her knees.
"I know, Snow." He said helping her up. The walked back to the kingdom, sadly. Killian just stood there at the shore. He saw a boat.. A small one tied to a tree by the shore. He got an idea. He untied the boat hopping on it using two carved paddles in side the boat to catch the porposely slow Jolly Roger.
-Hours later-
Emma was in her cabin. She glanced over to a blanket that was drenched over something. She walked over to it, hesitating her hand to pull the blanket off of the object. She stop hesitating and pulled it and instantly tears swelled up in her green eyes. She and Baefire had stood at the mirror together. She had covered it up because she hated the way her face looked, so saddened and depressed. She put her hand on the mirror. She tried to hide her tears as she turn to collapse into her chair having Smee knock. She wiped her eyes.
"Come in." She gruffed. He walked in and put the child down. He glanced at the mirror and gave Emma a hug. She hesitated, then accepting it. She nodded at him in thanks. The walked out the captain's log and went the the front of the ship. Emma was a killing, ruthless pirate but she also loved her crew. She sang for the crew around every week. She sat, letting her legs dangle danger free off the side as she began to sing a song she wrote.
"The sound of the blue. The sound of the night. The sound of the waves, flickering in the night. As the sun settled low, no dangerous foe. Just a orange, yellow and purple glow painted across the sky." She closed her eyes, knowing her crew must be staring a hole into her back.
Killian was out of sight, but he heard this beautiful voice. It was song very unknown to him. He squinted his eyes to see who sung, the gasping at the blonde at the edge of her ship, singing to her crew.
"A pain, to large. A fate, to bad. A lost love, a lost hand. A lost friend, lost sand, someone down a ways deep blue. Blurry vision. Unable to hear. A storm awaits, deep down blue. Love is pain, love is insane. A crew is smart, a crew has my heart. Lost contol, death blood. Never buried down in mud; never a friend. A heart never to mend."
Emma had loved this song. She wrote it after Baefire's death.
"No parents, no love. No friend, no home. Always going to be.. Alone."
Killian listened to the heart mending song as he starred at this pirate singing like.. Like a princess. He now understood. He uncracked Emma's riddle. He felt so.. at ease. Emma was unknown. She had no home. No family. She must have lost someone she loved. She started singing again.
"It's a pirate's life for me. It's a beauty out on sea. The place I feel ok, the boat always to sway. A bird of white. Rewriting the night. A swan, pros and never cons. A mere shove, can break a heart of love."
Killian closed his eyes listening to this killer. He felt... Calm. Not sad.. or mad.. Just calm. Emma stopped singing and her crew cheered. That's when he turned his head to a low rumble. Emma turned to. A storm was a brew.
Emma sighed. She murmured some thing like a "Bloody hell." Emma took at her crew and with one glance they knew that they would need to prepare the ship. Emma stormed off to her cabin.
"Baby's first storm." She said, in a pissed manner. She took her man and scanned it, finding she wasn't far from her destination. She left the map as she walked out the cabin, seeing flashes of lightning and loud roars of the clouds. Emma felt the drenching ran as she heard a scream coming from the black blue waves.
"If I tug the rope pull me up." Emma growled to her crew as she tied a rope to her hip before diving into the unknown water. She saw a man, remnants of a small ship floating. The man was sinking as Emma dove her head under the water, grabbing the man. She tugged her rope as her crew pulled the pair up. Emma laid the man on the deck as he spit and coughed water from his lungs.
"Get the sea out your lungs, mate." She mumbled. The crew had went back to their duties. Emma did not realize it was the man from the docks until he opened his magnificent blue eyes.
"You.. Saved me.." He coughed. Emma smiled devilishly.
"You were saved by a beautiful pirate." She said playfully as she did with everyone.
"Yes." He said, inferring to her saving him.
"I know I'm beautiful." Emma teased while pulling at her drenched hair and clothes.
"Goddamn it." She mumble standing up from the peasant's side.
"Brand new dragon leather." She murmured.
