I know I haven't updated this in forever, but was focusing on other fanfic Dream, and had university work. Please review if you have time, means alot.
Cassandra was trembling behind a tomb stone. Two of the three witches had not stayed long after they had chased Regina away, but one had stayed. Emma.
Cassandra watched as she had knelt down beside the large tombstone that had been erected after the great battle, when the barrier had been erected.
In her hands a bouquet of snowdrops appeared, and she laid them down, her fingers tracing a name, Snow. Cassandra thought for a moment she saw tears in the witches eyes.
Emma rose, but remained staring at the tombstone.
"I know you are there little girl." her cold voice called through the graveyard.
Cassandra froze in her spot.
"You should run home, before Regina and Marion lose yet another person." Emma hissed, lunging towards Cassandra suddenly, from behind the tombstone.
Cassandra screamed, and leapt backwards, scrambling still on all fours, as quickly as she could away from Emma. Emma laughed at the girl.
"Get away from her." Regina's voice boomed, as she came running towards them, a bow and arrow in her hands.
With a wave of her hand the weapons appeared in Emma's hands.
"These were my mother's." she said coldly, as Regina lifted Cassandra into her arms. "Do you miss the magic, Regina?"
"Only because it stops me destroying all of you." Regina snarled back.
Emma chuckled slightly. "Whatever happened to us being friends?"
"Some things cannot be forgiven."
"You'd know all about unforgivable acts."
Regina turned away, and began to walk back to the campsite.
Emma stood and watched her go, a small part of her still wishing she could go with her.
Regina arrived back to find everything had calmed down, everyone was being treated or beginning to tidy up and repair the damage. She gently set Cassandra down as the entered the magical barrier.
"Go back to the tent, my love." she smiled, ruffling Cassandra's hair gently.
Regina headed towards the main medical tent, she couldn't deal with Charming right now, and here she could find out the damage and make arrangements for those who had died.
As she entered she immediately knew something was wrong, no one would look her in the eye. They wouldn't even go near her. Her heart sank. She ran to Dr Whale.
"Henry?" she choked out, "Where is he?"
"Mum," he called, rushing to her side. He wrapped his arms around her immediately. "I'm sorry." he whispered, as he held her close.
Regina turned and saw the body being carried away. The arm dangling down from the stretcher, with her bracelet. Marion's bracelet made from material of Robin's jacket.
"Noooo." Regina wailed like an animal, trying to push Henry off her, without any success, as he held onto her.
"Why?" Regina sobbed, pounding her fists into his chest, as she slowly sunk to the floor. Henry just held her. Henry gently lifted the small frame of his mother, carrying her away from the medical tent, and back towards their home.
Cassandra knew the moment she saw Regina and Henry what happened. Her and Roland sat in silence together, holding hands so tightly, as if if they let go, the world would fall apart around them, more than it already.
Regina and Cassandra were walking together down the street in an awkward silence.
"Why did you go see him?" Regina eventually asked.
"To lure the snowqueen out." Cassandra sighed, "He'll probably go straight to her."
Regina stopped in her tracks, "Gold was working with them in your time?"
"No, he wasn't there."
Regina nodded, she knew what it meant, either he died, or disappeared before the curse was cast.
"Was Belle there?" Regina asked.
Cassandra thought for a moment.
"I think you mentioned her once, but I don't know." she trailed off. "I'm sorry, I'm not very useful. You guys never really told me anything, and it was all mainly before my time."
Regina smiled at her sympathetically. "It's okay. It's future mes fault."
Cassandra smiled back at her.
"We should get back to the others." Regina sighed.
The ground suddenly began to shake, Cassandra grasped Regina's arm. Ice began to come racing through the street, covering the buildings and roads, icicles formed and snow piled up.
"She's moved up her timeline." Cassandra gasped, "This is all my fault."
Henry, Elsa, Emma, Henry, Snow, Charming and Belle appeared on to the main street, rushing to Regina and Cassandra.
"It isn't me doing this." Elsa quickly said, looking especially at Cassandra.
"We have to erect a barrier, to protect people." Cassandra immediately said, "This is only the beginning. Soon we will all turn on each other, if we are not protected." She was being to panic, she had failed them all, she was meant to stop this.
"Calm down." Regina said gently, putting her hands on Cassandra's shoulders. "She'll have a base somewhere, we need to find it."
"Me, Regina, and Elsa, will go find it." Emma began saying, but was quickly interrupted by David.
"I don't think that is a good idea. It is you two she wants. I'll go with Regina." He said, "You stay here, keep everyone calm."
He gently kissed the top of her head, then turned to kiss Snow.
"I'll be careful" he whispered,
"You better be." she smiled.
Regina gave Henry a tight hug. "Please be safe." she said quietly to him. He smiled at her.
"Always, mum."
He went to Emma, who put her arm around him.
Charming turned to Regina who gave him a nod, and the two of them became to walk towards his truck.
"I'll come with you, I've read up on this." Belle smiled, running after them.
"I'm coming too." Cassandra shouted.
"No." Regina replied immediately, "It's too dangerous."
"You all trusted me to send me back here to help. So let me help."
The others watched Regina, David, Belle and Cassandra leave in the truck. Emma and Elsa both felt dread in the pit of their stomachs.
However none of them had any time to worry about them, as the silence was interrupted by the roar of a large ice monster, charging towards them.
"Go!" Emma shouted, "We can handle this."
The others ran as Emma and Elsa squared up with the ice beast.
"On the count of three, we blast it." Elsa said, looking at Emma.
"One...two...three." Elsa counted.
Magic shot from their hands, hitting the monster square in its chest, pushing it backwards. It roared, but they pushed on, and soon, it shattered into hundreds of pieces.
Emma let out a laugh of relieve, and pulled Elsa into a hug. Snow, and Henry rushed to them.
Ingrid stood watching them from a distance, a smile playing on her lips.
"My sisters" She smiled, seeing the two girls embrace.
