Hello! I'm on a roll! I'm pretty sure I'll be able to update more often as it's winter break. So anyway, enough of this. Onward with the story! By the way thanks to Cat Girl 1995 for her idea and reviewing.

The next memory started...

Emmeline was in the house happily humming; she was going to be married in a week from now! As she swept a feeling washed over her, she frowned; something was wrong. Had something come up that she had forgotten about? Then a yell pierced her thoughts

"Breaking ice! Breaking ice!"

She knew that voice! It was Jack's! But why would he- Oh no, Jack and his little sister Emma had gone skating earlier. She dropped her broom and ran.
She knew only one place where Jack and Emma had gone skating; the lake. In the forest. It took at least 10 minutes to run from the edge of the village to the lake. Emma lived in the house furthest from it.
It didn't matter though, Emma or Jack was in danger, she couldn't afford to be late.
So she ran. Ran and ran. Exhaustion creeped up her muscles. Doubt whispered in her ear. Pain came in the form of slicing branches and prickly bushes. None of it mattered; she HAD to get there. If she didn't make it..- No don't think that, run.
She ran through a clump of bushes and arrived at the edge of the lake. Just in time to see Jack fall in.
"No! Jack! She screamed. She, even though exhausted and winded from her run, dredged up enough energy to run to the edge of the hole.
She reached in desperate to save Jack, uncaring of how near she was to falling in.
Then the others arrived, they immediately went to Emmeline's side. They then began to extract her carefully from the edge of the hole and began to take her home.
"No!" Emmeline screamed fighting to break free "No!"
Finally she broke her captor's grip and ran to the edge of the hole. She grasped for Jack. It was too late. That finally hit her at she sat at the edge of a freezing over hole in the middle of the lake with many watching. Emmeline's shock had worn off and with that tears were beginning to flow.
"Jack!" She said in her grief "Jack!"

The memories began to get more erratic at that point

Emmeline sat at the edge of her window. Looking at the lake that had caused her so much grief. Her gaze was unwavering and it looked like she was dead to the world.

Flashes of dreams... and nightmares.
Jack hanging up from a tree. Her kissing him. He falling, down down down. He at the lake falling through the ice. She screams "No!"
Emmeline woke up gasping. Then she went back to sleep. This time it wasn't so terrible.
They laughing in the fields running in daylight. She telling her story while the children laughed. Jack proposing to her on one knee. She gleefully says "Yes! Yes! I love you!" They kissed.
And in her sleep, unbidden a smile grows. Faint, but there.

Emmeline was at the edge of the lake looking out. Then she felt a person sitting next to her.
"Emma?" She questioned
"Yeah. About that.." Emma said
"What?" Emmmeline asked, turning around. "Have you been sleeping?!" She said worriedly, for Emma had bags under her eyes.
"No, not really. I've been having.." She trailed off
"Nightmares." Emmeline finished "Come, take a nap." She said patting her lap.
Emma laid her head down. "But, I'll have nightmares." She protested
"Shh." Emmeline said "Sleep, I'll make sure no nightmares get you."
And Emmeline kept that promise, Emma had a good sleep at last.

The Guardians were silent. Their intuition had been correct; this memory hadn't been such a good one. In fact, it was down right terrible!
They didn't ask as Jack and Emmeline stood to one side, leaning heavily against the wall
"Emmeline?" Tooth said. The Guardians looked at her incredulously; couldn't she see that this was a hard and sad moment?!
"Do you want to continue? It's okay if you don't. You've made a big sacrifice already, you don't need to do more." Tooth said trying to spare Emmeline the obvious pain
"No." Emmeline said "Jack has the right to know; I and everyone else will see this to the finish."
At those ominous words, the room played the next and hopefully happier memory..

*Sobbing* I don't know what to say. The memories have arrived at Jack's death and Emmeline is heart broken. Until next time... *sob*
